What's Wrong?

When using a marketplace that declares a metadata.pluginRoot path (for instance to ./plugins), installing any of the detected plugins then fails with an error "file not found" with the path .claude/plugins/marketplaces/xxx-marketplace/a-plugin/....

It skips the pluginRoot as the path should be .claude/plugins/marketplaces/xxx-marketplace/plugins/a-plugin/....

- .claude/plugins/marketplaces/xxx-marketplace/a-plugin/...
+ .claude/plugins/marketplaces/xxx-marketplace/plugins/a-plugin/...

What Should Happen?

Plugin installation should work.
