Auto-update in Claude Code delivers no new content without a version bump

Both .claude-plugin/marketplace.json and .claude-plugin/plugin.json still report "version": "1.0.1", despite several commits landed in the meantime — including the new Knap skill and skill improvements.

Claude Code's marketplace auto-update compares the installed version against the catalog to decide whether to fetch new content. Acc. to official plugin documentation:

"Setting this pins the plugin to that version string, so users only receive updates when you bump it"

If the version number doesn't change, auto-update never fires — users with auto-update enabled silently stay on stale content indefinitely, with no indication anything is missing.

You already discovered this mechanism via 790904b ("chore: update plugin version so it can be updated from the marketplace"). The same situation has recurred.

Rather than opening a simple PR to bump the version once more, I wanted to raise the underlying problem so you can address it in whatever way fits your release workflow, so that future content reaches users reliably without manual intervention each time.
