Validation and testing

Test your marketplace before sharing.

From your marketplace directory, validate the JSON syntax:

claude plugin validate .

Or from within Claude Code:

/plugin validate .

Add the marketplace for testing:

/plugin marketplace add ./path/to/marketplace

Install a test plugin to verify everything works:

/plugin install test-plugin@marketplace-name

For complete plugin testing workflows, see Test your plugins locally. For technical troubleshooting, see Plugins reference.
