What is the official schema for Claude plugin marketplace.json file and does it support a displayName field?

💡 Result:

As of June 1, 2026, the official schema for the Claude plugin marketplace.json file does not support a displayName field [1][2]. The marketplace.json file, typically located at .claude-plugin/marketplace.json, is used to define a plugin marketplace for Claude Code [1][3]. According to official documentation, the required and supported fields are as follows: Required Fields: - name: A kebab-case identifier for the marketplace [1][2]. - owner: An object containing marketplace maintainer information (typically including a name) [1][2]. - plugins: An array listing the available plugins [1][2]. Optional Fields: - $schema: A URL for JSON Schema validation [1][2]. - description: A brief description of the marketplace [1][2]. - version: The version of the marketplace manifest [1][2]. - metadata.pluginRoot: A base directory path for relative plugin sources [1][2]. - allowCrossMarketplaceDependenciesOn: An array of other permitted marketplaces [1]. While there have been community requests to add a displayName field to marketplace.json to allow for more user-friendly naming, it has not been implemented as part of the official schema [4]. Developers currently rely on the name field, which is required to be in kebab-case and is used for installation commands [1][2]. Official JSON schemas for these manifest files are hosted at json.schemastore.org for validation purposes [2].

Remove unsupported displayName from .claude-plugin/marketplace.json

  • Claude Code’s official marketplace.json manifest schema does not define a displayName field for marketplace/plugin entries (only fields like name, owner, plugins, plus other documented optionals). This means the displayName value ("Desktop Commander") will be ignored and may fail schema validation if strict checking is enabled.
  • Remove the "displayName": "Desktop Commander", entry at line 14 and rely on supported fields instead.

Verify each finding against current code. Fix only still-valid issues, skip the
rest with a brief reason, keep changes minimal, and validate.

In @.claude-plugin/marketplace.json at line 14, Remove the unsupported
"displayName" field from the .claude-plugin/marketplace.json manifest: locate
the "displayName": "Desktop Commander" entry and delete that key/value pair so
the JSON only uses supported manifest fields (e.g., "name", "owner", "plugins"
and other documented optionals); ensure the JSON remains valid (comma positions
adjusted) after removal.
