I installed version 1.0.0, and then when I updated the previous version with the hooks file from the main branch, it started throwing errors. Do I need to uninstall and reinstall now? I installed it using the plugin method.

[Billyblingbling]

After installing version 1.1.0, do I still need to follow these steps:

Add hooks to settings.json: Copy the hooks from hooks/hooks.json to my ~/.claude/settings.json
Configure MCPs: Copy desired MCP servers from mcp-configs/mcp-servers.json to my ~/.claude.json
Important: Replace YOUR_*_HERE placeholders with actual API keys

Understanding the CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT Issue

The error shows /scripts/hooks/session-end.js instead of the full path, meaning ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} is resolving to empty.

Root Cause

This happens when you manually copy hooks from hooks/hooks.json to your ~/.claude/settings.json instead of installing as a plugin. The ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable is only set when Claude Code loads hooks from an installed plugin.

Solutions

Option 1: Use Plugin Installation (Recommended)

# Reinstall the plugin cleanly
claude plugin uninstall everything-claude-code
claude plugin install https://github.com/affaan-m/everything-claude-code

When installed as a plugin:

• Hooks in hooks/hooks.json are loaded automatically
• ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} is set correctly
• You do NOT need to copy anything to ~/.claude/settings.json

Option 2: Manual Installation (Advanced)

If you prefer manual setup, you need to replace ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} with the actual path:

"command": "node \"/path/to/everything-claude-code/scripts/hooks/session-end.js\""

To Answer Your Question

After installing version 1.1.0, do I still need to follow these steps?

No! When you install via claude plugin install, the plugin's hooks are loaded automatically. You only need to:

1. Copy MCP configs if you want those specific integrations
2. Replace API key placeholders

The hooks are bundled with the plugin and work out of the box.
