What Clerk Pack is

Clerk Pack is a plugin published in the jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace repository on GitHub, which has about 2.8k stars. The repository describes itself as: “Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com.”

A plugin is a package that bundles skills, slash commands, subagents, hooks, and MCP connectors so they install together. Plugins are plain files with a manifest at .claude-plugin/plugin.json, and they work in both Claude Code and Claude Cowork.

Installing Clerk Pack adds everything it ships in one step. Connectors inside a plugin still need to be connected separately, and hooks and subagents only run in Cowork and Claude Code, not in regular chat.

How to install Clerk Pack

Claude Code

  1. Add the repository as a plugin marketplace: claude plugin marketplace add jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace
  2. Install the plugin: claude plugin install clerk-pack@<marketplace-name>, using the marketplace name from the repository's .claude-plugin/marketplace.json.
  3. Restart the session if the new skills or commands don't appear straight away.

Claude Cowork

  1. Open Customize → Plugins and choose Add marketplace.
  2. Enter jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace (the owner/repo shorthand works for GitHub).

> 24 production-ready Claude Code skills for Clerk authentication -- real @clerk/nextjs v6 API code, not templates.

What This Is

A complete skill pack for building, deploying, and operating Clerk-authenticated applications. Every skill contains real Clerk v6 code: clerkMiddleware(), auth(), createRouteMatcher(), verifyWebhook(), Svix HMAC verification, organization RBAC with has(), and more. No placeholder imports, no fake API patterns.

Installation

/plugin install clerk-pack@claude-code-plugins-plus

Skills

Standard Skills (S01-S12)

Pro Skills (P13-P18)

Flagship Skills (F19-F24)

Usage

Skills trigger automatically when you discuss Clerk topics:

  • "Help me set up Clerk" -> clerk-install-auth
  • "Fix this Clerk error" -> clerk-common-errors
  • "Deploy my Clerk app" -> clerk-deploy-integration
  • "Migrate from Auth0 to Clerk" -> clerk-migration-deep-dive

Key Clerk Concepts Covered

  • Middleware: clerkMiddleware() with createRouteMatcher() -- no default route protection, explicit auth.protect()
  • Server auth: auth() (lightweight JWT parse) vs currentUser() (Backend API call, rate-limited)
  • Client auth: useUser(), useAuth(), useClerk(), , ,
  • Organizations: OrganizationSwitcher, has({ role }), has({ permission }), org-scoped sessions
  • Webhooks: Svix HMAC-SHA256 verification, verifyWebhook() from @clerk/backend/webhooks
  • JWT Templates: Custom tokens for Supabase, Hasura, Convex integration
  • Express: clerkMiddleware(), requireAuth(), getAuth() from @clerk/express
  • Session tokens v2: Compact format (default since April 2025), custom claims via Dashboard

Before you install

  • Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
  • Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
  • Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
  • Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
  • Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
