Known Gotchas
- ⚠ Not an MCP server itself - it's a directory/marketplace for discovering Claude ecosystem tools
- ⚠ Plugin installation relies on /plugin marketplace command which may not be available in all Claude Code versions

- ⚠ 20,000+ community plugins are aggregated from external sources with varying quality
- ⚠ Plugin format requirements may change as Claude Code evolves
