fix(cli): label plugin search as catalog discovery, not web search - #396
Merged
Conversation
Empty plugin search JSON now includes kind/query/total/scope and a web-fetch hint so agents do not treat a catalog miss as a failed web search. Table copy and help text say the same thing. Local and hosted share the presentation. Related to #387.
