Error Messages/Logs

⎿ Error: Failed to finalize marketplace cache. Please manually delete the directory at

TL;DR

The issue can be resolved by ensuring the correct file path with a slash at the end of the user directory is used when installing the plugin.

Guidance

• Verify that the USERPROFILE environment variable is correctly set and includes a trailing slash, as the error message indicates a missing slash in the path C:\Users\Administrator.claude\plugins\marketplaces\claude-hud.
• Check the plugin installation script to see if it correctly handles the file path construction, potentially needing an update to append a slash after the user directory.
• Manually try adding a slash to the USERPROFILE path when installing the plugin to see if it resolves the issue, as suggested by the error message.
• Consider updating the plugin to handle cases where the user directory path does not include a trailing slash.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without knowing the exact plugin installation script, but ensuring the path is correctly formatted like C:\Users\Administrator\.claude\plugins\marketplaces\jarrodwatts-claude-hud is key.

Notes

The issue seems specific to the Windows environment and the interaction between the USERPROFILE variable and how the plugin constructs file paths. The solution might involve adjusting environment variables, the plugin's path handling, or both.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Manually ensure the correct path with a trailing slash is used during plugin installation, as this directly addresses the error message's suggestion and may provide a quick resolution while a more permanent fix is investigated.
