Overview

Suggest Plugins is a Grade A security-tested development skill for Claude AI. When invoked, it presents an interactive discovery-and-edit session for a ClaudeWorks profile. The tool allows users to search the curated marketplace and local plugins, install missing picks with their confirmation, and add them to the active profile. It uses smart exclusions so only items matching the user's query get enabled on mega-bundle plugins. The skill remains resident across multiple user turns, refining searches based on user input and persisting state through one-line headers printed at the top of each response. It can perform three types of mutations on the user's profile, each requiring explicit confirmation: installing a not-yet-installed plugin, adding an already-installed or just-installed plugin to the active profile, and excluding items on a mega-bundle plugin. The retrieval mechanics are shared with create-profile via retrieve-plugins.js, and the skill does not grep or jq the marketplace itself. To maintain session state, it tracks three variables across the entire session: the target profile, which remains locked throughout the session; shown picks, presented continuously across turns; and added picks, which have been written to profiles.json during the session. This approach helps to prevent re-offering picks the user has already added and provides a state-persistence hack to combat the effects of Claude's context compression.

Use cases

Plugin Discovery

Users can explore and install plugins relevant to their projects without manually searching through the marketplace or local directories.

Profile Customization

Developers can tailor their ClaudeWorks profile by interactively adding or excluding plugins, optimizing their workflow.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Interactive discovery session for easy plugin exploration
  • Smart exclusions for mega-bundle plugins
  • Stays resident across multiple user turns for continuous interaction

Cons

  • Complexity in managing session state across turns
  • Dependence on external scripts for marketplace and local plugin data

Q&A

What it doesn't do?

macOS only at launch. Windows is planned and Linux likely follows. The Electron shell is already cross-platform, but the terminal launch and Keychain sync need ports. Profiles live on your machine, no cloud sync. Use exportProfile / importProfile to move them. No GitHub token required. ClaudeWorks tries the gh CLI first, then GITHUBTOKEN, then falls back to anonymous fetches (60 req/h). See Architecture for the fallback chain. Teams need Anthropic's experimental flag (CLAUDECODEEXPERIMENTALAGENT_TEAMS=1). The feature works today but expect behaviour to shift as the upstream matures. We don't generate or manage Claude API keys. Run claude login first. The app copies credentials from your existing login.

What it does?

Each profile runs in its own CLAUDECONFIGDIR, which is Claude Code's built-in way to redirect its config root. MCP servers, skills, agents, and slash commands from profile A can't appear in profile B's session. Real per-process isolation, not config swapping. A curated plugin marketplace ships inside the app. Browse 114 upstream marketplaces and 647 featured plugins without leaving ClaudeWorks. One search bar queries 7,009 flat entries (every marketplace, plugin, skill, command, agent, and MCP server) at once. Every profile ships arbitrary shell aliases. Each one cd's to a directory and optionally auto-runs /workflow or a saved prompt. One profile can claim the bare claude command, so plain claude in any terminal lands in your default profile without the bloat of the others. More Per-profile /workflow commands (and named variants like /workflow-debug, /workflow-deploy) become real Claude Code commands in that profile's session. Variants can be scoped to specific launch directories. Multi-agent Teams (experimental, behind CLAUDECODEEXPERIMENTALAGENTTEAMS=1): compose a team from existing profiles with drag-and-drop, assign roles, pick a lead, and launch. The lead opens with a generated /start-team that spawns each teammate. Per-directory MCP management: disable individual servers inside sensitive repos while keeping them available elsewhere. Status bar builder: 17 widgets, drag to reorder, named save/load, per-profile override. Profile export / import: a self-contained JSON tha

Asked by Rina Desai · Nov 2, 2025

Why this exists?

I kept managing two Claude Code setups by hand, the work one with its MCP servers and skill set, the personal one with a different CLAUDE.md and different tools. Swapping meant editing ~/.claude.json and mcp.json by hand, then undoing it next session. Claude Code has no native multi-profile support, so I built this instead. Plugin caches are shared across profiles via symlinks, so you install a plugin once and updates propagate everywhere.
