Update Plannotator Plugin

Force-update the plannotator Claude Code plugin by clearing all cached data and reinstalling from the source repo.

Why this exists

The plugin system caches a git clone of the marketplace repo at ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/plannotator/ and never re-fetches. This means /plugin reports "already at the latest version" even when a newer version exists. The only fix is to nuke the caches and reinstall.

Steps

  1. Remove the marketplace cache (the stale git clone — this is the root cause):

    rm -rf ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/plannotator/

  2. Remove the plugin cache:

    rm -rf ~/.claude/plugins/cache/plannotator/

  3. Tell the user to restart Claude Code, then run:

    /plugin marketplace add backnotprop/plannotator
/plugin install plannotator@plannotator
/reload-plugins

Do not attempt the /plugin commands from this skill — they require a fresh Claude Code session to work after cache deletion.
