Plugins
Browse, install, enable/disable, and update Claude Code plugins.
Overview
Plugins are packages that extend Claude Code with commands, skills, agents, MCP servers, and hooks. The Plugins page has three tabs:
- Installed — manage your installed plugins
- Marketplace — browse and install from configured marketplaces
- All Available — search across all marketplaces
How to Use
Viewing Installed Plugins
The Installed tab shows plugin cards with:
- Plugin name, version, and source badge
- Category and scope (user/project/local)
- Component summary (commands, skills, agents, etc.)

- Update indicator (orange button when new version available)
Filter by status (enabled/disabled), update availability, or source.
