Summary
- Settings files use .claude/plugin-name.local.md format with YAML frontmatter for structured config and markdown body for additional context or prompts
- Hooks, commands, and agents can read settings to customize behavior; quick-exit pattern checks file existence and enabled flag to skip when not configured
- Parsing techniques provided for extracting individual fields (strings, booleans, numerics) and markdown body content using standard bash tools
- Common patterns include toggling hook activation, managing agent state and coordination, and configuration-driven behavior with validation and sensible defaults
- Settings changes require Claude Code restart; files should be gitignored and never committed to version control
