v1.2.0 — Plugin install support + clean README

What's New

Plugin Install Support

You can now install autoresearch via the Claude Code plugin system:

/plugin install autoresearch@autoresearch

Or add to your settings.json:

{
  "extraKnownMarketplaces": {
    "autoresearch": {
      "source": { "source": "git", "url": "https://github.com/uditgoenka/autoresearch.git" }
    }
  }
}

No more manual cp -r. The plugin system handles skills/ and commands/ directories automatically.

Manual install still works — see README for both options.

Clean README + EXAMPLES.md

• README rewritten from ~1840 → ~240 lines — clean, scannable, inspired by GSD
• EXAMPLES.md created with ~1190 lines of practical examples organized by domain:
  • Software Engineering, Sales, Marketing, HR, Operations, Performance Marketing, Data Science, DevOps, Design & Accessibility
  • MCP server patterns, API integration patterns, Claude Code workflow patterns
  • Security audit deep-dives, plan wizard sessions, ship workflow examples
  • Verification script templates

Bug Fixes (from v1.1.1)

• Fixed /autoresearch:ship, :plan, :security returning "Unknown skill" — added command registration files in commands/autoresearch/
• Synced distributable skills/ directory which was stuck at v1.0.4

Credits

• Plugin manifest inspired by @emmahyde's PR #13
