 ## Install
 
+This plugin distributes through the Claude Code marketplace flow. From any shell:
+
 ```bash
-claude --channels plugin:molecule@Molecule-AI/molecule-mcp-claude-channel
+# 1. Add the marketplace (one-time per machine)
+claude plugin marketplace add https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-mcp-claude-channel.git
+
+# 2. Install the plugin
+claude plugin install molecule@molecule-channel
 ```
 
+`molecule` is the plugin name (from `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`); `molecule-channel` is the marketplace name (from `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`). Both live in the same repo — installing the marketplace makes the plugin available; installing the plugin enables it for your sessions.
+
+To pin a specific version, append `#<tag>` to the marketplace URL — for example `…/molecule-mcp-claude-channel.git#v0.4.0-gitea.1`. Without a ref, you track `main`.
+
+> **Note for users coming from the GitHub install path**: the GitHub `Molecule-AI` org was suspended on 2026-05-06 and is permanently gone. The earlier `claude --channels plugin:molecule@Molecule-AI/...` invocation no longer resolves. The new path (above) is the canonical replacement; behavior is unchanged.
