Note: Claude Code plugins namespace commands as `/visual-explainer:command-name`.

**Pi (manual):**
**Pi:**
```bash
# Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer.git /tmp/visual-explainer

# Install skill
cp -r /tmp/visual-explainer/plugins/visual-explainer ~/.pi/agent/skills/visual-explainer
# Install globally
pi install git:github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer

# Install prompt templates (slash commands)
cp /tmp/visual-explainer/plugins/visual-explainer/commands/*.md ~/.pi/agent/prompts/

# Cleanup
rm -rf /tmp/visual-explainer
# Or install for just the current project
pi install -l git:github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer
```

This loads the `visual-explainer` skill plus the prompt templates (`/diff-review`, `/plan-review`, `/generate-web-diagram`, etc.) directly from the git repo.
