What Problem Solver Specialist is
Problem Solver Specialist is a plugin published in the ccplugins/awesome-claude-code-plugins repository on GitHub, which has about 954 stars. The repository describes itself as: “Awesome Claude Code plugins — a curated list of slash commands, subagents, MCP servers, and hooks for Claude Code”
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 Problem Solver Specialist 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.

We couldn't retrieve the source file for this entry. Browse the repository on GitHub to find it and read the README before installing.
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.
