Why PluginsPlugin MarketplaceGetting StartedCoworkClaude CodeHow Plugins WorkMaking Them YoursContributing

A prompt to try

/sales:call-prep I have a call tomorrow with [company]. Research them, list their likely priorities and give me five questions to ask.

Written by us so you can reuse it. Replace each [bracket] with your details.

Step by step

  1. Claude Cowork: install from claude.com/plugins, or add the GitHub repo as a plugin source.
  2. Claude Code: run claude plugin marketplace add anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins.
  3. Install the role you need, for example claude plugin install sales@knowledge-work-plugins.
  4. Use its slash commands, such as /sales:call-prep or /data:write-query; its skills switch on by themselves when they fit the task.
  5. Edit the plugin's files to add your company's terms, tools and processes.

Watch out for

There are 11 core role plugins from Anthropic, and the same marketplace now also lists 100+ partner-built ones; install only what you use. They are generic until you add your own context. Legal and finance output is a draft for a person to check. Our scan flagged a few lines in docs (a Nextflow installer pipe, an apt cleanup command, a policy note that mentions keychains); we read them and they are normal setup steps.
