+
+Assemble each Claude plugin bundle declared under `claude.marketplaces` into

+
+**What it does:**
+
+1. Packages each plugin-local skill (`plugins/<name>/skills/**`) with the same
+   packager as pool skills, and copies in the pool skills its `skills:` selector names
+2. Tree-copies the rest of `plugins/<name>/` (commands, hooks, agents, `.mcp.json`),
+   applies `files:` mappings, and merges `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`
+3. Writes `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`; a plugin with `externalSource` is
+   listed there verbatim, never built
+
+**`plugin.json` author:** merged per subfield. The config owns `name` and
+`email` (from the marketplace `owner`; an omitted `owner.email` publishes no
+email even when plugin.json has one); every other subfield of an object
+`author` in the plugin's own plugin.json (`url`, ...) passes through. A
+plugin.json `name`/`email` that disagrees is overridden with a stderr warning,
+not an error. A non-object `author` (npm's `"Name <email>"` string form, say)
+has no subfields to merge: it is replaced by the config's object, with a
+warning. marketplace.json's entry for the plugin carries the same merged object.
+
+**Output:** a report on stdout — `status`, `summary`, `examined`
+(marketplaces built), `findings` (each with `location`), and `data`

+  that plugin is not assembled, nothing after it is built, and its marketplace's

+- `2` - The build could not run: an undeclared `--marketplace` (`USAGE_INVALID`),
+  a missing config or an invalid plugin declaration (`CONFIG_INVALID`), an input
+  nothing built or that is not what it should be, or a file the build copies that the
+  OS will not read — `LICENSE`, `README.md`, `CHANGELOG.md`, a plugin file, a
+  `files[].source`, a built skill in `dist/skills` (`INPUT_UNREADABLE`, naming it), the packager
+  refusing a plugin-local skill's content, such as a skill `files:` source that does
+  not exist (`RUN_INCOMPLETE`, with a `SKILL_PACKAGING_FAILED` finding at the skill), or

+what did not, and why). A run that threw publishes
+`{ error: { code, message } }` instead: `USAGE_INVALID` (missing
+`ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_API_KEY` / `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, a bad argument, no such
+source), `INPUT_UNREADABLE` (a source the OS will not read),
