Claude Code does not have a formal plugin system in the way that VS Code has extensions or Chrome has add-ons — there is no central marketplace, no manifest format, no sandboxed runtime. What the community calls a "Claude Code plugin" almost always means one of three things: (1) a skill (SKILL.md file under ~/.claude/skills/), (2) a hook (shell command wired into Claude Code's settings.json hook system), or (3) a slash command (Markdown file under ~/.claude/commands/).
ClaudSkills is the open catalog for the first category, with a small overlap into the third. Every entry below either is itself plugin-shaped (declares hooks, allowed tools, custom slash commands in its frontmatter) or installs the same way a plugin would: drop a file in a known directory and Claude Code picks it up on next session.
If you've come here looking for "Claude Code extensions", that's the same thing — see the extensions page for a synonym-disambiguated overview. For hook-specific entries, see Claude Code hooks.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a Claude Code plugin marketplace?
How does a skill differ from a hook?
How do I install a plugin?
~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. If the skill declares hooks, also merge its hook config into ~/.config/claude-code/settings.json. The ClaudSkills desktop app (Pro) handles both steps automatically.
