Claude Code update 2.1.157

The latest release automates loading plugins from local 'skills' directories. Users can now use custom extensions without publishing them to the marketplace.
The update also adds a 'claude plugin init' command to scaffold new plugins quickly. The 'plugin' command now auto-completes arguments, including subcommands and installed plugin names.
The tool can now switch between git worktrees during a session. The release fixes WSL clipboard handling, resolves terminal hangs in VS Code, and improves performance for long dialogues.
