) ## Summary - Adds `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json` so users can install the d-a-s skills plugin directly from inside Claude Code: /plugin marketplace add databricks/databricks-agent-skills /plugin install databricks-skills Without this file the existing `.claude-plugin/plugin.json` is reachable only after cloning the repo. - `README.md`: documents both install paths (CLI canonical, plugin marketplace alternative for stable skills) and adds a short comparison table covering experimental skills, per-skill selection, and outside-agent prerequisites. The two paths install to *different* locations (CLI writes into `~/.claude/skills/`; plugin caches under `~/.claude/plugins/cache/<marketplace>/<plugin>/`) — the README now spells that out instead of pretending they share a target. ## Background `databricks-solutions/ai-dev-kit` is in the process of being retired as a skills-distribution mechanism (see a-d-k PRs [#546](databricks-solutions/ai-dev-kit#546), [#547](databricks-solutions/ai-dev-kit#547), [#548](databricks-solutions/ai-dev-kit#548) and the team's `DECOMMISSION_PLAN.md` on the experimental branch). Users will be redirected here for skills. The migration banner that a-d-k will start showing pre-1.0.0 users tells them to run `/plugin marketplace add databricks/databricks-agent-skills`. Without this PR landing, that command fails to resolve. The plugin marketplace path is intentionally scoped to stable skills (matches the existing `"skills": "./skills/"` in `plugin.json`). Experimental skills stay CLI-only — the README's comparison table calls that out so users know which knob to reach for. This supersedes #92 (which was opened from a personal fork). ## Test plan - [x] `python3 -m json.tool .claude-plugin/marketplace.json` — valid JSON. - [x] `claude plugin validate --strict .` on the branch — marketplace manifest passes strict validation. - [x] From a clean Claude Code session, `claude plugin marketplace add <path>` + `claude plugin install databricks-skills` succeeds; `claude plugin details databricks-skills` registers exactly the 8 stable skills (`databricks-apps`, `-core`, `-dabs`, `-jobs`, `-lakebase`, `-model-serving`, `-pipelines`, `-serverless-migration`); experimental skills correctly excluded from the registered set even though they're present in the plugin cache. - [x] Plugin files land at `~/.claude/plugins/cache/databricks-skills/databricks-skills/0.1.0/skills/<skill>/SKILL.md` (the plugin path; not `~/.claude/skills/`, which is the CLI path). - [ ] README renders cleanly on GitHub; the comparison table is legible.
