fix(install): use https URL for marketplace add + bump 0.5.2#22
Merged
Conversation
Claude Code's `/plugin marketplace add <owner>/<repo>` shorthand resolves the GitHub reference to `git@github.com:owner/repo` (SSH) for the clone, which fails with `Permission denied (publickey)` for any user whose SSH key isn't registered with GitHub — even though the repo is public and HTTPS would work for everyone. The full HTTPS form is accepted by the same command and authenticates through git's HTTPS credential helper (e.g. the `gh` helper most users already have configured), removing the SSH-default trap. Changed every install reference site: - README.md (Claude Code install block, interactive + CLI) - docs/install/claude-code.md (path A canonical, scripted equivalent, reinstall path) - docs/install/README.md (CLI claim/verify quick start) - docs/website/content/use/claude-code-recipe.md (recipe, interactive + CLI) - docs/demos/install-claude/session.jsonl (recorded demo session) - website/static/demos/install-claude.cast (re-rendered asciinema cast) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
plugin.json was stuck at 0.4.1 — never bumped past the 0.5.0 / 0.5.1 release tags. Catch it up and bump to 0.5.2 for this release. Synced version references: - .claude-plugin/plugin.json: 0.4.1 -> 0.5.2 - docs/install/claude-code.md: example `claude plugin list` output (helix 0.5.0 -> 0.5.2) and the `--plugin-url` archive URL (v0.5.0.zip -> v0.5.2.zip) - docs/demos/install-claude/session.jsonl: recorded `claude plugin list` output line - website/static/demos/install-claude.cast: re-rendered Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

/plugin marketplace add <owner>/<repo>shorthand resolves the GitHub reference togit@github.com:owner/repo(SSH) for the clone, which fails withPermission denied (publickey)for any user whose SSH key isn't registered with GitHub — even though the repo is public and HTTPS would work for everyone.The full HTTPS form is accepted by the same command and authenticates through git's HTTPS credential helper (e.g. the
ghhelper most users already have configured). This removes the SSH-default trap.Reference: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/plugins-reference.md#plugin-marketplace-add (the command accepts both
owner/reposhorthand and full HTTPS URLs).The marketplace listing itself (
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) already uses HTTPS for the plugin source, so the subsequent/plugin install helix@helixstep was always safe — only the user-typedmarketplace addline was tripping users up.Changed every install reference site (canonical docs + recorded demo):
