I'm not that familiar with Claude Code Plugins, but it looks like it allows integrations with Hooks, which is a lot more powerful than just giving more context. Context is one thing, but Hooks let you codify guardrails. For example where I work we have a setup for Claude Code that guides it through common processes, like how to work with Terraform, Git or manage dependencies and the whitelisting or recommendation towards dependencies. You can't guarantee this just by slapping on more context. With Hooks you can both auto-approve or auto-deny _and_ give back guidance when doing so, for me this is a killer feature of Claude Code that lets it act more intelligently without having to rely on it following context or polluting the context window.
Cursor recently added a feature much like Claude Code's hooks, I hope to see it in Codex too.
