💡 Summary
A curated directory for discovering and installing plugins for Claude Code.
🎯 Target Audience
🤖 AI Roast: “It's a well-organized plugin directory, but its primary function is to point you to other things that actually do the work.”
The directory acts as a distribution point, inheriting all risks from the plugins it hosts (e.g., arbitrary code execution, network access, file system operations). The primary mitigation is the mandatory user trust check before installation, but a centralized review process for external plugins is implied yet not detailed.
Claude Code Plugins Directory
A curated directory of high-quality plugins for Claude Code.
⚠️ Important: Make sure you trust a plugin before installing, updating, or using it. Anthropic does not control what MCP servers, files, or other software are included in plugins and cannot verify that they will work as intended or that they won't change. See each plugin's homepage for more information.
Structure
/plugins- Internal plugins developed and maintained by Anthropic/external_plugins- Third-party plugins from partners and the community
Installation
Plugins can be installed directly from this marketplace via Claude Code's plugin system.

Contributing
Internal Plugins
