##  Final Setup Steps

### Step 1: Make Scripts Executable

# Make all shell scripts executable
find . -type f -name "*.sh" -exec chmod +x {} \;

# Verify
find . -type f -name "*.sh" -ls
```

### Step 2: Initialize Git Repository

```bash
cd /home/jeremy/projects/claude-code-plugins

# Initialize git
git init

# Add all files
git add .

# Create initial commit
git commit -m "Initial commit: Claude Code Plugin Marketplace

```

### Step 3: Create GitHub Repository

1. Go to **GitHub**: https://github.com/new
2. **Repository name**: `claude-code-plugins`
3. **Description**: `The comprehensive marketplace and learning hub for Claude Code plugins`
4. **Visibility**: Public
5. **DO NOT** initialize with README, .gitignore, or license (we already have these)
6. Click **Create repository**

### Step 4: Push to GitHub

```bash
cd /home/jeremy/projects/claude-code-plugins

# Add remote origin
git remote add origin https://github.com/jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins.git

# Rename branch to main
git branch -M main

# Push to GitHub
git push -u origin main
```

### Step 5: Configure GitHub Repository Settings

After pushing, configure your repository on GitHub:

1. **Add Topics** (Settings → General → Topics):
   - `claude-code`
   - `plugins`
   - `marketplace`
   - `anthropic`
   - `ai`
   - `developer-tools`

2. **Enable Discussions** (Settings → Features → Discussions)

3. **Enable Issues** (Should be enabled by default)

4. **Set Description**: "The comprehensive marketplace and learning hub for Claude Code plugins"

5. **Add Website**: `https://github.com/jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins`

### Step 6: Test the Marketplace

```bash
# Test installing from your new marketplace
/plugin marketplace add jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins

# If you previously added this marketplace, remove the old slug first:
# /plugin marketplace remove claude-code-plugins

# Try installing a plugin
/plugin install hello-world@claude-code-plugins-plus

# Test the command
/hello
```
