Ran the exact patch-bump jq command from SKILL.md on the repo's own marketplace.json and it threw 'no such file or directory: /tmp/claude/marketplace.json' — the command redirects into a scratch dir it never creates; a plain baseline python edit succeeded cleanly on the first try with no scratch dir needed.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 4/10
  • Docs & honesty 4/5

What Marketplace Bump does

Bumps a plugin version inside a Claude Code marketplace.json using semantic-versioning inference (major for breaking changes, minor for new features, patch for fixes/docs). Triggers on "bump version", "increment version", "release new version", or after changes that warrant a version update. Ships copy-paste jq one-liners for each bump type.
