Plugin Skills not loading into Claude Cowork #84

Hi, when importing your GitHub repository to Claude Cowork in Customize -> Add plugin -> Create plugin -> Add marketplace, the plugin doesn't load the skills /heygen-avatar and /heygen-video to Claude Cowork.

The plugin is correctly loaded to Cowork, but the skills don't show as part of it. They are not recognized.

This happens because they are not inside a /skills folder. In order for a plugin to load any skills into Cowork so the user can utilize them, all the plugin skills must be inside a /skills folder, located in the root folder of the plugin.

Currently, these 2 skills are located directly in the root folder, each one in its separate folder, so they are not recognized as skills when importing the plugin to Claude Cowork.

I have tried cloning the repository and making the suggested change, and it works: when moving both skills to a newly created /skills folder, they show in the Plugin as Skills. When using your original repo, they are just not there.

Here are screenshots clarifying what I mean:
Adding repo to import plugin: https://ibb.co/zh1Xg40x
Original repo - GitHub: https://ibb.co/934vFgx4
Original repo - Claude Cowork: https://ibb.co/CKRgRTRz
Modified repo - GitHub: https://ibb.co/5hRJ68rk
Modified Repo - Claude Cowork: https://ibb.co/JRdvLnP4

I don't think the current setup causes any problem with Claude Code, because they are correctly referenced in other relevant files, so the AI agent knows where to find them to call them when needed.

However, I think Cowork setup is more rigid than Code and it needs to follow this structure in order to work.
