Preflight Checklist

  • [x] I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
  • [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

When using the /plugin command to browse the marketplace and install a plugin, the UI resets to the initial state (start of the Discover tab) after installation completes.

Proposed Solution

After installing a plugin, maintain the previous browsing context:

  • Stay on the same tab (Discover, Installed, etc.)
  • Preserve scroll position within the plugin list
  • Keep any active search/filter terms if applicable
  • Show brief success confirmation without navigation disruption

User browses Discover tab → Scrolls to plugin → Clicks Install

Shows inline "✓ Installed" confirmation

Remains at the same position, ready to continue browsing

Additional Considerations

  • Could add a subtle toast notification for install success
  • "Installed" tab could optionally auto-update in the background
  • Preserve state even if the user switches tabs within the plugin browser

Use Case Example

When evaluating multiple plugins from a marketplace (e.g., exploring several plugins for a workflow), the current behaviour requires:

  1. Scroll/navigate to find a plugin
  2. Install it
  3. Re-open /plugin
  4. Navigate back to where you were
  5. Repeat for each plugin

This friction discourages exploration and slows down the plugin discovery experience.
