Claude Code plugins

Custom Claude Code plugins: commands, skills, hooks, agents. Extends the base CLI with project-specific automation.

Drop-in plugins for Claude Code. The pieces that make a generic agent useful for a specific stack.

claude-code-plugins packages the extension points Claude Code supports — commands, skills, agents, hooks — into reusable plugins. Each plugin lives in its own directory and is installable via the Claude Code plugin API.

What it does

• Ships plugins for git workflows (ship, finalize-pr, wrap-up), retrospectives, CodeQL resolution, and more
• Houses skills that progressively load only when their triggers fire — minimal token cost when idle
• Houses agents with focused tool allowlists for delegated work (Explore, Plan, code-reviewer)
• Houses hooks that enforce conventions automatically (style, permissions, no-skip patterns)
• Composes with ai-assistant-instructions for the rules layer

How it fits

Component	Examples

Getting started

1. Browse the plugins

   Each plugin is its own directory. The repo README enumerates installed plugins and their entry points.

2. Install a plugin

   Claude Code’s plugin install path varies by version — see the README for the current command. Plugins typically live under ~/.claude/plugins/.

3. Invoke a command

   From any Claude Code session, type the slash command (e.g. /ship) to use a plugin’s command. Skills auto-activate on matching triggers.
