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
- Add the marketplace once:
/plugin marketplace add wshobson/agents - Browse what’s available — categories above are the rough map.
- Install only what you need, e.g.
/plugin install python-development,/plugin install kubernetes-operations. Each plugin loads its own agents + commands + skills. - 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.
