What Greptile is

Greptile is a plugin published in the anthropics/claude-plugins-official repository on GitHub, which has about 37.1k stars. The repository describes itself as: “Official, Anthropic-managed directory of high quality Claude Code Plugins.”

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 Greptile 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 Greptile

Claude Code

  1. Add the repository as a plugin marketplace: claude plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-official
  2. Install the plugin: claude plugin install greptile@<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 anthropics/claude-plugins-official (the owner/repo shorthand works for GitHub).
  3. Find Greptile in the list, click Install, then connect any connectors it needs from its Connectors tab.

A curated directory of high-quality plugins for Claude Code.

> ⚠️ Important: Make sure you trust a plugin before installing, updating, or using it. Anthropic does not control what MCP servers, files, or other software are included in plugins and cannot verify that they will work as intended or that they won't change. See each plugin's homepage for more information.

Structure

  • /plugins - Internal plugins developed and maintained by Anthropic
  • /external_plugins - Third-party plugins from partners and the community

Installation

Plugins can be installed directly from this marketplace via Claude Code's plugin system.

To install, run /plugin install {plugin-name}@claude-plugins-official

or browse for the plugin in /plugin > Discover

Contributing

Internal Plugins

Internal plugins are developed by Anthropic team members. See /plugins/example-plugin for a reference implementation.

External Plugins

Third-party partners can submit plugins for inclusion in the marketplace. External plugins must meet quality and security standards for approval. To submit a new plugin, use the plugin directory submission form.

Plugin Structure

Each plugin follows a standard structure:

plugin-name/
├── .claude-plugin/
│   └── plugin.json      # Plugin metadata (required)
├── .mcp.json            # MCP server configuration (optional)
├── commands/            # Slash commands (optional)
├── agents/              # Agent definitions (optional)
├── skills/              # Skill definitions (optional)
└── README.md            # Documentation

Plugin names are immutable

The name field in a marketplace entry is an immutable slug. Once a plugin has been published, its name must not change — users have it installed under that slug, and renaming it breaks their install with a plugin-not-found error.

  • To change how a plugin is labeled in the UI, set or update displayName instead.
  • If a rename is genuinely unavoidable, add an entry to the top-level renames map in .claude-plugin/marketplace.json so existing installs auto-migrate:
"renames": {
  "old-name": "new-name"
}

The Claude Code plugin loader reads this map and transparently rewrites the old slug to the new one on the user's next sync.

Skill-bundle plugins

When a plugin's source repository ships skills (SKILL.md files) without a .claude-plugin/plugin.json manifest, the marketplace entry can declare the skills directly using strict: false and an explicit skills array.

{
  "name": "example-bundle",
  "description": "Brief description of the bundled skills.",
  "author": { "name": "Author Name" },
  "category": "development",
  "source": {
    "source": "git-subdir",
    "url": "https://github.com/example-org/sdk.git",
    "path": "packages/agent-skills",
    "ref": "main",
    "sha": "<commit sha>"
  },
  "strict": false,
  "skills": [
    "./skill-a",
    "./skill-b",
    "./skill-c"
  ],
…

Each path in skills is relative to source.path and points at a directory containing a SKILL.md. Paths can reach deeper than a single level — for example, ["./libA/skill-1", "./libB/skill-2"] exposes a curated subset across multiple library subdirectories. Each skill is registered as : in Claude Code.

For the underlying schema, see Strict mode in the marketplace documentation.

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.
