What's Wrong?

Git itself works fine and doesn't flag anything about the directory (just the expected "not a git repository" since your home folder isn't a repo). Ownership and permissions on git.exe are normal too.

So the "unsafe location (current directory)" error is coming from Claude Code's own internal git-detection logic for the /plugin marketplace add command, not an actual problem with your git install or PATH. This looks like a bug/limitation in that command on Windows — possibly it's being overly strict about running from a non-repo directory, or misinterpreting your per-user Git install path.
