Added a new "Running plugins on a different machine" section to docs/inspector/plugins.mdx explaining that MCPJam now automatically attempts to download a plugin's stored bundle from the cloud when opened on a machine where it hasn't been imported before, only falling back to the manual re-import prompt if the download fails.

Files changed:

  • docs/inspector/plugins.mdx — added "Running plugins on a different machine" section before "Credential setup"

Summary by cubic

Documented how MCPJam runs plugins on different machines: for plugins with a local stdio component, it auto-downloads the stored bundle from the cloud and runs it if the content matches the pinned hash; it only prompts to re-import if the download fails. Added a new "Running plugins on a different machine" section to docs/inspector/plugins.mdx.

Written for commit 529f8c2. Summary will update on new commits.
