Claude Code Plugins: Orchestration and Automation

⚡ Updated for Sonnet 4.5 & Haiku 4.5 — All agents optimized for latest models with hybrid orchestration

🎯 Agent Skills Enabled — 47 specialized skills extend Claude's capabilities across plugins with progressive disclosure

A comprehensive production-ready system combining 85 specialized AI agents, 15 multi-agent workflow orchestrators, 47 agent skills, and 44 development tools organized into 63 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:

• 63 Focused Plugins - Granular, single-purpose plugins optimized for minimal token usage and composability
• 85 Specialized Agents - Domain experts with deep knowledge across architecture, languages, infrastructure, quality, data/AI, documentation, business operations, and SEO
• 47 Agent Skills - Modular knowledge packages with progressive disclosure for specialized expertise
• 15 Workflow Orchestrators - Multi-agent coordination systems for complex operations like full-stack development, security hardening, ML pipelines, and incident response
• 44 Development Tools - Optimized utilities including project scaffolding, security scanning, test automation, and infrastructure setup

Key Features

• Granular Plugin Architecture: 63 focused plugins optimized for minimal token usage
• Comprehensive Tooling: 44 development tools including test generation, scaffolding, and security scanning
• 100% Agent Coverage: All plugins include specialized agents
• Agent Skills: 47 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 5 skills available (~300 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 63 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 5 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 code-review-ai             # AI-powered code review

# 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.
