Kaneshin Dotfiles
kaneshin-dotfiles is a Claude Code plugin source for the Build phase that packages one plugin inside a personal dotfiles repository.
by kaneshin · github.com/kaneshin/dotfiles
Register a personal dotfiles repo that ships one Claude Code plugin alongside shell and editor defaults.
Add it to Claude Code
Install the plugin in Claude Code. One command, paste-ready.
/plugin install kaneshin-dotfiles@kaneshin/dotfilesBuilt to be called by your agent
Skillselion is itself an MCP server. Your agent can pull this entry and a paste-ready install config straight from the API - no copy-paste.
Retrieve this entry with skillselion.get_details("plugin:kaneshin/dotfiles") and the paste-ready config with skillselion.get_install_config("plugin:kaneshin/dotfiles").
What it does
kaneshin-dotfiles is a community marketplace entry that exposes dotfiles—not a large skill framework—with exactly one Claude Code plugin nested in a personal configuration repo. Solo builders who already manage environment sync via dotfiles can add this source to pull the same Claude plugin the maintainer uses on their machines. Documentation in the catalog is sparse beyond naming and star metadata, so treat it as a reference implementation for wiring Claude Code into dotfiles rather than a feature-rich productivity suite. It fits developers who want parity between laptops without maintaining a separate plugins monorepo. Install when you are consolidating toolchain setup; skip if you need documented skills, hooks, or MCP integrations with clear invoke guidance.
Highlights
- One Claude Code plugin packaged inside a dotfiles repository
- Minimal footprint for syncing personal agent defaults across machines
- Community listing tied to kaneshin’s shared dev environment
- Straightforward add-on if you already clone dotfiles for shell and editor config
Why builders use it
Builders reinstall Claude Code plugins manually on every new machine when their agent config lives only on one laptop.
After adding the dotfiles marketplace, the bundled Claude plugin installs with the rest of your synced developer environment.
