Anthropicfeatureclaude.ai Skills and Plugins in Terminal Sessions
Skills and plugins you turn on in your claude.ai account now carry over automatically to Claude Code in the terminal, for anyone signed in with that account.
Details
- Skills and plugins enabled on your claude.ai account sync down to terminal sessions signed in with that account, so the two stay in step without manual installation
- Turn either sync off with the syncClaudeAiSkills or syncClaudeAiPlugins settings
- Signing in with a Claude account now also requests access to your claude.ai plugins
- Write and Edit results for files in the synced account-skills folder now say the change is not saved to your account, and how to save it
- Shipped in Claude Code v2.1.275
Best for
Keeping one set of skills and plugins instead of configuring the web account and the terminal separately.
When to use it
You set up a skill on claude.ai and want it available at the command line without installing it again.
Who benefits
Anyone running Claude Code in a terminal while signed in with a Claude account.
