Source: Wshobson Agents Claude Code Marketplace 2026 04 26

wshobson/agents is a Claude Code plugin marketplace that bundles 184 specialized agents, 78 single-purpose plugins, 150 skills, 98 commands, and 16 multi-agent workflow orchestrators. MIT-licensed, 34.4k GitHub stars. Distinct from a single-skill or single-plugin repo because it’s structured as an installable marketplace: you point Claude Code at the repo once, then pull individual plugins as needed.

Key Takeaways

  • Granular plugin model. 78 plugins, each single-purpose, so install pulls only the agents/commands/skills relevant to that domain. Average 3.6 components per plugin (Anthropic’s 2–8 pattern).
  • 25 domain categories. Development (6), Languages (10 — Python, TypeScript, etc.), Infrastructure (5), Security (6), Operations (4), AI & ML (4), Marketing (4), Business (4), plus Documentation, Workflows, Testing, Quality, Data, Database, Performance, Governance, Blockchain, Finance, Payments, Gaming, Creative, Accessibility, API, Utilities, Modernization.
  • Three-tier model strategy. Plugins explicitly route work across Opus 4.7 (critical), Sonnet / Inherit (complex), Haiku (fast/cheap) — surfaces the cost-vs-capability lever directly in the agent definitions.
  • Multi-agent orchestrators. 16 of them. Parallel coordination for full-stack dev, security hardening, ML pipelines, incident response.
  • Notable headline plugins.
    • Agent Teams — parallel multi-agent code review, debugging, feature development.
    • Conductor — context-driven development workflow with TDD support and semantic revert.
    • PluginEval — quality evaluation framework with three analysis layers and anti-pattern detection.
  • Progressive disclosure. Skills activate only when needed, keeping token overhead bounded even with 150 skills indexed.

Try It

  1. Add the marketplace once: /plugin marketplace add wshobson/agents
  2. Browse what’s available — categories above are the rough map.
  3. Install only what you need, e.g. /plugin install python-development, /plugin install kubernetes-operations. Each plugin loads its own agents + commands + skills.
  4. Invoke orchestrators with slash commands; agents/skills activate automatically from context after that.

Implementation

Tool/Service: GitHub repo (wshobson/agents) registered as a Claude Code plugin marketplace. Setup: /plugin marketplace add wshobson/agents, then /plugin install <plugin-name> per category. Cost: Free / MIT license. Cost in practice depends on which model tier the plugin’s agents target — the three-tier strategy is explicit, so a Haiku-heavy plugin runs cheap. Integration notes: Each plugin directory contains agents/, commands/, and skills/ subdirectories. Plugins compose freely — multiple installed at once is the intended pattern.
