What's Wrong?
When installing plugins from a custom marketplace (not Discover), the spacebar toggle does not function. Pressing spacebar on a highlighted plugin has no effect—the green plugin name with checkmark does not change state.
Important: Spacebar toggle works correctly in the main Discover tab. This bug is specific to the Marketplaces > Browse Plugins flow.
What Should Happen?
Pressing spacebar on a highlighted plugin should toggle its install state (checkmark on/off), consistent with behavior in the Discover tab.
Error Messages/Logs
No error messages. Spacebar keypress is silently ignored—no visual feedback, no state change.
Steps to Reproduce
- Run
claudein terminal - Type
/plugin - Tab to
Marketplaces - Select a marketplace that has plugins available
- Select
Browse Plugins - In the plugin list, highlight a plugin using arrow keys
- Press spacebar to toggle install state
- Expected: Checkmark toggles on/off
- Actual: Nothing happens—plugin state unchanged
Verification: Return to Discover tab and test spacebar toggle there—it works correctly.

Additional Information
This appears to be part of a broader issue with the Marketplaces browse UI having incomplete keyboard event handling. Related issues being filed separately:
- Navigation incorrectly resets to Discover tab when pressing Enter for details
- Marketplace removal does not persist after restart
Suggests the Marketplaces browse view may be missing the keyboard event handlers that exist in the Discover view.
