Add Beacon: semantic code search plugin

[sagarmk]

Adds Beacon to the Plugins & Extensions section.

Beacon is a semantic code search plugin for Claude Code using hybrid search with embeddings and BM25 keyword matching. It indexes locally via Ollama, stores in SQLite with sqlite-vec and FTS5, and auto-syncs via Claude Code lifecycle hooks.

Key features:

• Hybrid search: semantic embeddings + BM25 keyword matching + identifier boosting
• Fully local by default via Ollama (nomic-embed-text, mxbai-embed-large)
• Auto-indexes via Claude Code lifecycle hooks (SessionStart, PostToolUse)
• SQLite storage with sqlite-vec and FTS5
• Install: claude plugin marketplace add sagarmk/Claude-Code-Beacon-Plugin

1. Beacon description too long 🐞 Bug ✓ Correctness

Description

The new Beacon entry’s description is fairly long and implementation-heavy (mentions
Ollama/sqlite-vec/FTS5), which conflicts with the repo guideline to keep descriptions short and
simple. This reduces scannability/consistency of the curated list.

Code

README.md[21]

+- [Beacon](https://github.com/sagarmk/beacon-plugin) - Semantic code search plugin using hybrid search with embeddings and BM25 keyword matching. Indexes locally via Ollama, stores in SQLite with sqlite-vec and FTS5.

Evidence

The added Beacon bullet includes multiple implementation details, while the contribution guidelines
explicitly request short, simple descriptions for entries in this list.

Agent prompt

The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

### Issue description
The Beacon README entry description is long and includes low-level implementation details, conflicting with the repo guideline to keep descriptions short and simple.

### Issue Context
This repo’s `contributing.md` asks for short/simple descriptions for list entries.

### Fix Focus Areas
- README.md[21-21]

### Suggested edit (example)
Replace the current description with something like:
- `- [Beacon](https://github.com/sagarmk/beacon-plugin) - Semantic code search plugin using hybrid semantic + keyword search.`

(Any equivalent shorter wording is fine, as long as it stays descriptive and ends with a period.)
