Root Cause

It does not explain that the Installed tab can also surface priority sections such as Needs attention and Favorites, or that plugins may be surfaced there separately from the normal scope grouping. Because those sections are undocumented, users have no documentation for the layout that this v2.1.116 fix refers to.

Documentation Type

Missing documentation (feature not documented)

Documentation Location

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/discover-plugins

Section/Topic

/plugin Installed tab behavior in the "Manage installed plugins" section

Current Documentation

The docs currently say:

Run /plugin and go to the Installed tab to see your plugins grouped by scope.

Run /plugin and go to the Installed tab to view, enable, disable, or uninstall your plugins. Type to filter the list by plugin name or description.

What's Wrong or Missing?

Changelog v2.1.116 says:

Fixed /plugin Installed tab showing the same item twice when it appears under Needs attention or Favorites

That entry depends on user-visible Installed tab features that the docs do not currently explain. The current page only documents scope grouping and basic management actions.

It does not explain that the Installed tab can also surface priority sections such as Needs attention and Favorites, or that plugins may be surfaced there separately from the normal scope grouping. Because those sections are undocumented, users have no documentation for the layout that this v2.1.116 fix refers to.

Related changelog context from v2.1.110 also confirms these Installed tab features exist:

Improved /plugin Installed tab — items needing attention and favorites appear at the top, disabled items are hidden behind a fold, and f favorites the selected item

Suggested Improvement

Expand the "Manage installed plugins" documentation on https://code.claude.com/docs/en/discover-plugins with a short explanation of the Installed tab layout, including:

  • top-level priority sections such as Needs attention and Favorites
  • the fact that scope-based grouping still exists below those sections
  • that disabled items are folded away
  • the f keyboard shortcut for favoriting the selected plugin

A small subsection or bullet list under "Manage installed plugins" would be enough.

Impact

extent analysis

TL;DR

Update the "Manage installed plugins" documentation on https://code.claude.com/docs/en/discover-plugins to include the Installed tab layout features.

Guidance

  • Add a short explanation of the top-level priority sections such as Needs attention and Favorites in the Installed tab.
  • Mention that scope-based grouping still exists below those sections.
  • Document that disabled items are folded away and the f keyboard shortcut for favoriting the selected plugin.
  • Consider adding a small subsection or bullet list under "Manage installed plugins" to clarify the Installed tab layout.

Example

No code snippet is necessary for this documentation update.

Notes

The suggested improvement is based on the provided changelog context and the current documentation gaps. The update should aim to provide a clear understanding of the Installed tab features.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Update the documentation to reflect the current features of the Installed tab, as this will improve user understanding and mitigate the issue.
