Document the marketplace update workflow in README#28
Merged
Conversation
The "Installing a skill" section only covered first-time setup — nothing explained how to pick up new plugins added after the initial marketplace add. Ran into this directly: /plugin install wiki-governor returned "not found" because the local marketplace listing was never refreshed, even though the plugin was already merged to main. - Document /plugin marketplace update <name> as the required refresh step before installing anything new - Clarify the split: already-installed plugins pick up SKILL.md content changes automatically (no version pinning in marketplace.json); new plugins still need an explicit install after the refresh - Manual (non-plugin) path: note git pull as the update step Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013H1oBwjtpzDLGreGTTjoP7

Small docs fix, found the hard way: the "Installing a skill" section only covered first-time setup (
marketplace add+ oneplugin installexample). Nothing explained how to pick up plugins added after that — which is exactly what just happened trying to installwiki-governoron a laptop that had the marketplace added a while back:/plugin install wiki-governor@hefrock-agent-skillsreturned "not found," even though it was already merged tomain. Root cause was a stale local marketplace listing, not a repo problem.Change
Adds a new "Updating after new skills are added to this repo" subsection:
SKILL.mdcontent changes automatically (no version pinning inmarketplace.json), but a plugin new to the marketplace still needs its own install after the refreshgit pull origin mainnote it was missing🤖 Generated with Claude Code
