Add it once. Then install what you need.
Everything below runs inside Claude Code. Adding a marketplace registers the catalogue and installs nothing; installing a skill is a separate, per-skill decision.
01 Add the marketplace
Once per machine. This registers all 16 skills as available; nothing is installed yet and nothing is added to your context.
/plugin marketplace add fledgeling-co/fledgeling-plugins02 Install a skill
Per skill, by name. Claude Code opens the details so you can pick a scope — user (you, everywhere), project (everyone on the repo), or local (you, this repo only).
/plugin install trawl@fledgeling-pluginsFor scripting, or to skip the interactive step: claude plugin install trawl@fledgeling-plugins --scope project
03 Keep it current
Claude Code turns auto-update off by default for third-party marketplaces like this one — only Anthropic’s own are on. So updating is something you do. Refresh the catalogue first, then reinstall or reload.
/plugin marketplace update fledgeling-pluginsYou can switch auto-update on per marketplace: run /plugin, open Marketplaces, select this one, then Enable auto-update. Updates land after your session starts and prompt you to reload.
04 Apply changes without restarting
If an install summary says the skill is not active yet, reload. When the reload would invalidate the prompt cache it warns and skips until you rerun it with --force.
/reload-plugins05 Audit, disable, remove
Every installed skill costs context on every turn. Claude Code lists what you have not used recently under a Not used recently header in /plugin → Installed.
/plugin list/plugin disable trawl@fledgeling-plugins/plugin uninstall trawl@fledgeling-pluginsRemoving the marketplace itself uninstalls everything you installed from it.
Before you install anything
A plugin runs with your privileges and can execute arbitrary code — that is true of this marketplace and every other one. Everything here is MIT and readable: read the source before you add it, the same as you would for anything else you install.
