Original: Stop copy-pasting AI skills between repos: package them as Claude Code plugins

Short summary

A developer shares how to package reusable AI skills as Claude Code plugins instead of copy-pasting them across repositories. Plugins are structured git repos with a marketplace.json catalog and plugin.json manifest, installable at user or project scope via two commands. Once registered, skills auto-trigger across all repos and update with a single marketplace refresh, creating one source of truth for shared team knowledge.

  • Claude Code plugins are structured git repos with marketplace.json and plugin.json
  • Install at user or project scope with two commands
  • Single source of truth replaces copy-pasting skills across repos

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
