What it does
Builds and maintains Claude Code plugin marketplaces: converts a skills repo to spec-valid marketplace.json, adds/updates plugin entries, and migrates skills into or between suites. Use for marketplace.json, plugin distribution, one-click install, or "put these skills in a suite". Not for repo health audits (use marketplace-health-check) or cache reconciliation (use skill-governance).
marketplace-dev
Convert a Claude Code skills repository into an official plugin marketplace so users
can install skills via claude plugin marketplace add and get auto-updates.
Input: a repo with skills/ directories containing SKILL.md files.
Output: .claude-plugin/marketplace.json + validated + installation-tested + PR-ready.
Route the task before editing
| User intent | Route |
|---|---|
| Create marketplace support for a repo that does not have it | Follow Phases 0, 4 below |
| Add or update an ordinary plugin entry | Follow “Maintaining an existing marketplace,” then Phase 3 |
| Consolidate standalone skills into a suite, create a suite from existing skills, move a skill between suites, or rename a skill while moving it | Read references/suite_consolidation_workflow.md completely and follow it instead of the generic Phase 4 constraints |
| Reconcile installed caches after a merged suite migration | Invoke daymade-skill:skill-governance and use its post-migration workflow; do not mutate cache state here |
| Audit the whole repository across code, docs, security, PRs, issues, and manifest integrity | Invoke marketplace-health-check:marketplace-health-check only when the user requested a broad health check; it is not a prerequisite for a targeted suite migration |
Phase 0: Evidence Intake
Before editing an existing marketplace, collect evidence instead of relying on the default template:
- Read the current
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json. - Read this repo's marketplace rules (
CLAUDE.md, README install section, changelog). - Read official docs for marketplace/plugin path semantics.
- Use the current conversation as evidence. Mine earlier local Claude Code sessions only when the user explicitly asks for or approves that private source.
