small-business-eu

Small Business Plugin — EU Edition

Pre-built EU-native small business workflows for Cowork and Claude Code. Install it once and you get 34 skills spanning finance, compliance, sales, customer ops, hiring, and business intelligence — plus a router that understands plain English.

Built for European SMBs: Exact Online for accounting, Mollie / PayPal / SumUp for payments, HubSpot / Pipedrive / Brevo for CRM, Calendly for scheduling, and EU-first compliance tools for VAT returns, GDPR, and e-invoicing.

You don't need to memorize anything. Just tell Claude what you need — "I need to file my VAT return," "a customer wants their data deleted," "what should I charge?" — and the router figures out the right skill and walks you through it. Every workflow that touches money or customers pauses for your approval, so nothing happens without your say-so.

Important: This plugin assists with small business workflows but does not provide financial, tax, legal, or privacy advice. All outputs should be reviewed by you and, where appropriate, a qualified professional before use.

Installation

This repo doubles as its own plugin marketplace (.claude-plugin/marketplace.json), so you install it straight from GitHub — no clone required.

Claude Code

In an interactive session:

/plugin marketplace add artdaw/small-business-eu
/plugin install small-business-eu@artdaw
/reload-plugins

Or from the CLI:

claude plugin marketplace add artdaw/small-business-eu
claude plugin install small-business-eu@artdaw

artdaw/small-business-eu is GitHub shorthand for https://github.com/artdaw/small-business-eu — you can pass the full URL instead if you prefer. The marketplace name (artdaw) comes from .claude-plugin/marketplace.json; the plugin is installed as small-business-eu@artdaw.

To pick up upstream changes later, refresh the marketplace and reload:

/plugin marketplace update artdaw
/reload-plugins

Local development

If you've cloned the repo and want your edits picked up live, add the marketplace from the local path instead:

/plugin marketplace add /path/to/small-business-eu
/plugin install small-business-eu@artdaw
/reload-plugins

Because the marketplace source is the repo itself, any edits you make to the skills here are picked up by the installed plugin after /reload-plugins.

Cowork

Add the marketplace from the GitHub repo (artdaw/small-business-eu) and install the small-business-eu plugin.

Once installed, say "set me up" to run the smb-onboard skill — it'll help Claude understand your business, your country, your VAT situation, and the tools you already use.

What you'll need to connect

Connectors are configured in .mcp.json. Run /smb-onboard or ask Claude to "set me up" to walk through it.

Core tools (connect these first for the best experience):

• Exact Online — powers all financial workflows (cash forecasts, margins, month-end close, VAT prep, e-invoicing). Requires the CData MCP server — see setup below.
• Mollie — payment data, invoice settlements, SEPA/iDEAL/Bancontact refunds, and recurring mandates
• PayPal — transaction data, invoices, disputes, and refunds (EU legal entity)
• SumUp — card and point-of-sale payment data

CRM & marketing:

• HubSpot — CRM, leads, campaigns, and customer support tickets
• Brevo (formerly Sendinblue) — EU-native alternative to HubSpot for email, contacts, and CRM deals
• Pipedrive — EU-native (Estonia) CRM, widely used in northern and western Europe

Scheduling:

• Calendly — meeting scheduling for leads and customers; generates booking links from the call-list workflow

Communication:

• Gmail / Microsoft 365 (Outlook) — email drafts, ticket handling, contract review, DSAR responses
• Google Calendar / Outlook Calendar — meeting prep, call blocking, weekly commitments
• Slack — brief delivery and notifications
• Canva — generates on-brand social assets

File storage & notes:

• Google Drive / OneDrive — file storage and templates
• Notion — docs, wikis, and databases (SOPs, project notes, CRM-adjacent tracking)

Contracts & signatures:

• DocuSign — contract review from pending envelopes

You don't need all of these to start. Connect one or two and you'll immediately see value — the plugin tells you when connecting another tool would unlock more.

Configuring connectors (.mcp.json)

Most connectors need no developer setup — you authenticate with a normal in-session sign-in.
