A comprehensive production-ready system combining 182 specialized AI agents, 16 multi-agent workflow orchestrators, 147 agent skills, and 95 commands organized into 75 focused, single-purpose plugins for Claude Code.
Overview
This unified repository provides everything needed for intelligent automation and multi-agent orchestration across modern software development:
- 75 Focused Plugins - Granular, single-purpose plugins optimized for minimal token usage and composability
- 182 Specialized Agents - Domain experts with deep knowledge across architecture, languages, infrastructure, quality, data/AI, documentation, business operations, and SEO
- 147 Agent Skills - Modular knowledge packages with progressive disclosure for specialized expertise
- 16 Workflow Orchestrators - Multi-agent coordination systems for complex operations like full-stack development, security hardening, ML pipelines, and incident response
- 95 Commands - Optimized utilities including project scaffolding, security scanning, test automation, and infrastructure setup
Key Features
- Granular Plugin Architecture: 75 focused plugins optimized for minimal token usage
- Comprehensive Tooling: 95 commands including test generation, scaffolding, and security scanning
- 100% Agent Coverage: All plugins include specialized agents
- Agent Skills: 147 specialized skills following for progressive disclosure and token efficiency
- Clear Organization: 23 categories with 1-6 plugins each for easy discovery
- Efficient Design: Average 3.4 components per plugin (follows Anthropic's 2-8 pattern)
How It Works
Each plugin is completely isolated with its own agents, commands, and skills:
- Install only what you need - Each plugin loads only its specific agents, commands, and skills
- Minimal token usage - No unnecessary resources loaded into context
- Mix and match - Compose multiple plugins for complex workflows
- Clear boundaries - Each plugin has a single, focused purpose
- Progressive disclosure - Skills load knowledge only when activated
Example: Installing python-development loads 3 Python agents, 1 scaffolding tool, and makes 16 skills available (~1000 tokens), not the entire marketplace.
Quick Start
Step 1: Add the Marketplace
Add this marketplace to Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add wshobson/agents
This makes all 75 plugins available for installation, but does not load any agents or tools into your context.
Step 2: Install Plugins
Browse available plugins:
/plugin
Install the plugins you need:
# Essential development plugins
/plugin install python-development # Python with 16 specialized skills
/plugin install javascript-typescript # JS/TS with 4 specialized skills
/plugin install backend-development # Backend APIs with 3 architecture skills
# Infrastructure & operations
/plugin install kubernetes-operations # K8s with 4 deployment skills
/plugin install cloud-infrastructure # AWS/Azure/GCP with 4 cloud skills
# Security & quality
/plugin install security-scanning # SAST with security skill
/plugin install comprehensive-review # Multi-perspective code analysis
# Full-stack orchestration
/plugin install full-stack-orchestration # Multi-agent workflows
Each installed plugin loads only its specific agents, commands, and skills into Claude's context.
Plugins vs Agents
You install plugins, which bundle agents:
| Plugin | Agents |
|---|
comprehensive-review | architect-review, code-reviewer, security-auditor |
javascript-typescript | javascript-pro, typescript-pro |
python-development | python-pro, django-pro, fastapi-pro |
blockchain-web3 | blockchain-developer |
# ❌ Wrong - can't install agents directly
/plugin install typescript-pro
# ✅ Right - install the plugin
/plugin install javascript-typescript@claude-code-workflows
Troubleshooting
"Plugin not found" → Use plugin names, not agent names. Add @claude-code-workflows suffix.
Plugins not loading → Clear cache and reinstall:
rm -rf ~/.claude/plugins/cache/claude-code-workflows && rm ~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json
