Claude Plugins Community is a read-only marketplace mirror for community-contributed plugins that extend Claude Cowork and Claude Code.
The repository serves as a curated index of plugins that have passed Anthropic's automated security scanning and manual review process. Each plugin listed in the marketplace.json file represents a community contribution that has been vetted before distribution. The marketplace is synced nightly from Anthropic's internal review pipeline, ensuring the available plugins reflect the current approved set.
Developers looking to use plugins should install them directly through claude.com/plugins for Claude Cowork or the equivalent interface for Claude Code rather than interacting with this repository. Those interested in contributing plugins should submit them through the official submission portal at clau.de/plugin-directory-submission. This repository itself does not accept pull requests for plugin additions, as all changes flow through Anthropic's internal review and approval system.
The project functions as a read-only distribution channel rather than an active development repository. It maintains a single source file that mirrors the approved plugin marketplace and provides documentation about the submission and installation process. The nightly synchronization with the internal pipeline means the repository reflects the current state of approved community plugins without requiring direct contributions to the codebase itself.
