Anthropic publishes two general-purpose plugin marketplaces for Claude Code: official and community. Each is a catalog of plugins in its own GitHub repository. When you install a plugin from one of them in a Claude Code session, you type the marketplace’s name after @, as in /plugin install commit-commands@claude-plugins-official. Use this page to distinguish the two marketplaces and to find where to check whether the official one holds a given plugin.
These cases are covered on other pages:

Anthropic’s marketplaces

A marketplace is a catalog of plugins that a repository defines in its .claude-plugin/marketplace.json file. The official and community marketplaces each come from their own GitHub repository. Anthropic also publishes topic-specific marketplaces, such as anthropics/skills and anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins, which you add in a Claude Code session with /plugin marketplace add <owner>/<repo>. This table gives each marketplace’s repository and marketplace name, which is what you type after @ when you install a plugin from that marketplace. The community marketplace’s name is claude-community, not its repository name. If you wrote a plugin and want other people to install it, see Publish a plugin, which covers your own marketplace and submitting to Anthropic’s directory.

Deprecated claude-code-plugins marketplace

The claude-code-plugins marketplace in anthropics/claude-code is deprecated. To add a plugin, run claude plugin install <plugin>@claude-plugins-official in your shell, and skip any tutorial step that runs /plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-code.
Unless you have one of the two plugins below, you can leave your claude-code-plugins plugins and the marketplace as they are. They update from the claude-plugins-official repository.
  • ralph-wiggum: this plugin is now ralph-loop, and its commands start with /ralph-loop:. If those commands aren’t available, run claude plugin install ralph-loop@claude-plugins-official in your shell.
  • claude-opus-4-5-migration: this plugin is retired, so remove it by running claude plugin uninstall claude-opus-4-5-migration@claude-code-plugins in your shell.
If any other plugin stopped working, see Plugin installed but not working.

Find plugins in the official marketplace

By default, Claude Code adds the official marketplace, claude-plugins-official, for you. Most of what it lists comes from partners and other authors rather than from Anthropic: tool vendors publish plugins that connect Claude Code to their services, and Anthropic maintains a smaller set of its own, such as commit-commands, code-review, feature-dev, and the language server plugins. The catalog changes often, so this page doesn’t list it. To see what’s in it, use the Discover tab of /plugin in a Claude Code session, which you can search, or browse Claude Marketplace on the web.

Browse and install from Anthropic’s marketplaces

You can search Anthropic’s marketplaces for a plugin in Claude Code, on the web, or on GitHub:
  • In Claude Code, by browsing: run /plugin in an interactive session. Its Discover tab lists the plugins from your marketplaces.
  • In Claude Code, by name: run /plugin install <name> in a session, which looks the name up in your marketplaces. If the plugin is in one of them, its details open in the /plugin panel, and nothing installs until you choose an installation scope and confirm there. If it isn’t, you see Plugin "<name>" not found in any marketplace.
  • On the web: search the full catalog on Claude Marketplace, which shows install counts and marks some plugins Anthropic verified.
  • On GitHub: open .claude-plugin/marketplace.json in the marketplace’s repository, such as anthropics/claude-plugins-official. That file is the catalog itself.
Anthropic’s directory is separate from these marketplaces. The directory is the catalog on claude.ai. A plugin you add from the directory on claude.ai reaches Claude Code through account sync. To list your own plugin there, see Submit to Anthropic’s directory. To install from the desktop app or from a script, or to see what a cloud session loads, see Install plugins.

Add the community marketplace

The community marketplace isn’t registered until you add it. In a Claude Code session, run /plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community, then install with the @claude-community suffix. If claude-plugins-official isn’t on the Marketplaces tab of /plugin, add it the same way with /plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-official. For not found errors and marketplaces that won’t add, see Troubleshoot plugins.

Third-party marketplaces

Many popular plugins aren’t in any Anthropic marketplace. They’re in their authors’ own marketplaces, usually a GitHub repository with a .claude-plugin/marketplace.json at its root. Anthropic doesn’t review third-party marketplaces, so read Plugin security and trust before you add one. To use a third-party marketplace, add its repository in a Claude Code session with /plugin marketplace add <owner>/<repo>, then install with /plugin install <plugin>@<marketplace-name>. The marketplace name is the name field of that marketplace.json, and Claude Code prints it once it has added the marketplace. For other ways to add a marketplace, see Add a marketplace.
