Users hit "Plugin not found in any marketplace" because the marketplace-add was an unmarked prerequisite and the install commands lacked the `@asta-plugins` qualifier that Claude Code auto-complete offers. Number the steps, use the fully-qualified install form, and document that a `marketplace update` fails when the marketplace was previously removed (re-add first).

@gas2own Keep the original suggested commands. Just add a note that @asta-plugins can be appended if there is a naming collision (unlikely due to the asta- prefix on the plugin names)

What
Rework the Claude Code marketplace block in the Installation section:
/plugin marketplace add allenai/asta-pluginsas a required first step (numbered), not just one line among the installs./plugin install asta-tools@asta-pluginsetc. — matching what Claude Code's auto-complete actually offers./plugin marketplace update asta-pluginsfails if the marketplace was previously removed (empty marketplace list), and that you must re-add it first.Why
From a Slack thread in the #asta channel: a user uninstalled
asta-plugins, then couldn't reinstall —/plugin marketplace update asta-pluginsdid nothing and/plugin install asta-assistant@asta-pluginsreturned "Plugin not found in any marketplace" because the marketplace was no longer registered. They asked to have the add-marketplace step documented in the README. The existing README had theaddline but buried it and used unqualifiedinstallcommands, which is exactly what caused the confusion.Doc-only change.
