claude-plugins-official is Anthropic’s curated directory of Claude Code plugins and the marketplace behind the @claude-plugins-official suffix you see in many install commands. Internal plugins built by Anthropic live in /plugins; partner and community plugins live in /external_plugins or point to their own repositories.
Who it is for
Every Claude Code user. It is the first place to look for an official integration before trusting a random repository.
