# /about — Plugin source & version
Show a small card with the plugin name, version, and repo URL. Answers "where does this agent come from?" / "what version am I running?".
## Output format
```
🔌 ClawCode v<version>
Repo: https://github.com/crisandrews/ClawCode
Issues / stars: same link · feedback welcome
```
## Steps
1. **Get the version** — preferred: call the `watchdog_ping` MCP tool; it returns `{ok, version, ts, plugins}` and is the cheapest way to get the live value (no filesystem reads).
Fallback if the tool isn't available: Bash:
```bash
jq -r .version "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/.claude-plugin/plugin.json"
```
Never hardcode the version — always read it at runtime.
2. **Detect the surface** for bold formatting:
- CLI / Telegram / WebChat: `**bold**`
- WhatsApp: `*bold*` (single asterisk, no markdown headers)
- Discord: `**bold**` as-is
- iMessage: plain text, strip bold
3. **Print the card** using REAL data. One card, no preamble, no persona-intro.
## Format per surface
### CLI / WebChat
```
🔌 **ClawCode** v<version>
Repo: https://github.com/crisandrews/ClawCode
Issues / stars: same link · feedback welcome
```
### WhatsApp
```
🔌 *ClawCode* v<version>
Repo: https://github.com/crisandrews/ClawCode
Issues / stars: mismo link · feedback bienvenido
```
Use the user's conversation language for the tail line (ES/EN). Default EN if no signal.
### Telegram
Same as CLI.
## Important
- `/about` and `/version` are aliases — same response.
- Only respond when the user asks explicitly. Never volunteer this card unprompted.
- One card. No extra commentary, no persona-intro ("Soy …"). The user asked for metadata, give them metadata.
- For "what can I do?" the user wants `/help`, not `/about` — do not conflate.
