Episode Details

Claude Code's plugin system just went live, and the community is already figuring out best practices. In this episode, we crack open the Russian doll architecture of skills, MCPs, and plugins — what each layer does, when you need the full bundle, and when a one-off skill in your CLAUDE.md is the smarter call. We cover the official plugin registry, the npm publishing split, token efficiency tradeoffs, and the security implications of importing community plugins. If you're building with Claude Code, this is the mental model you need. Episode #980268 — open it directly at myweirdprompts.com/980268
