This is the first stable release of the meta plugin. It renames the skill from writing-plugins to managing-plugins to better reflect its scope, restructures the skill with progressive disclosure for better organization, and documents the description duplication requirement in the marketplace manifest.

Rename writing-plugins skill to managing-plugins

Section titled “Rename writing-plugins skill to managing-plugins”

Dec 7, 2025 · @mavam, @claude

The skill is now named managing-plugins instead of writing-plugins. Update any references to use the new name.

The skill description is also broadened to cover the full plugin lifecycle (create, modify, review, debug) and is no longer tied to the “tenzir marketplace” specifically.

Refactor managing-plugins skill with progressive disclosure

Section titled “Refactor managing-plugins skill with progressive disclosure”

Dec 9, 2025 · @mavam

The managing-plugins skill now uses progressive disclosure with separate reference files for each plugin component type (skills, subagents, commands, hooks). The main SKILL.md links to these files, and Claude loads them as needed. Added guidance to use @agent-claude-code-guide for best practices.

Document description duplication requirement

Section titled “Document description duplication requirement”

Dec 8, 2025 · @mavam, @claude

The marketplace does not automatically read descriptions from plugin.json, so they must be duplicated in marketplace.json for plugin discovery.
