About

What it does

jasonkuhrt-experiment-symlink-claude-marketplace is a deliberately tiny Claude Code marketplace used to prove that pointing the plugin cache at a symlinked local folder lets authors iterate on plugins without republishing every change. It ships one plugin and README-oriented metadata aimed at contributors and tooling hackers, not solo builders hunting shipping features. If you maintain Claude Code plugins, it clarifies whether your dev machine can treat the cached marketplace path as your working tree. Everyone else should skip it. Complexity is intermediate because you must understand Claude’s plugin cache layout, symlinks, and marketplace JSON—not general app coding. The outcome is confidence that your local marketplace path resolves correctly before you invest in a larger plugin bundle.

Highlights

  • Minimal marketplace with 1 hello-world style plugin for symlink experiments
  • Documents that symlink-to-cache enables live plugin development in Claude Code
  • Test fixture repository—not a production feature marketplace
  • Keywords center on experiment, symlink, and plugin cache behavior

Why builders use it

Plugin authors cannot tell whether Claude Code will pick up local marketplace changes until they reproduce cache and symlink behavior on their machine.

You can confirm symlinked cache paths load your marketplace and single test plugin so iterative Claude Code plugin work does not depend on fake publish cycles.
