Add CoWork plugin manifest (.claude-plugin/plugin.json) — fixes #4
.claude-plugin/plugin.json and marketplace.json already existed but had a stale skill count (106) and version (2.0.0). Updated both to 124 skills and version 2.1.0, adding historical-thinking to the description. README installation section updated: CoWork native plugin install moved to the top with Customize > (+) Add Plugin instructions; claude plugin install URL variant added to the Claude Code CLI section. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
