Claude Code Plugins
Claude Cowork is the plugin and skill-sharing layer built on top of Claude Code. Where Claude Code is a personal coding agent, Cowork makes it a team tool: organisations author shared "skills" (reusable slash-command behaviours), wire Claude into their specific apps and APIs via MCP connectors, and distribute role-matched configurations to every developer on the team. A skill might be a deployment runbook, a code-review protocol, or a specialised data-pipeline agent — once published, any team member invokes it with a single slash command. Cowork also provides structured coauthoring workflows (documentation, specs, proposals) and a plugin registry for connecting Claude to external services (Slack, GitHub, Linear, Jira, databases). For a biology lab it means: one researcher authors a "literature review" skill, and every student on the project inherits it instantly. The plugin system is open for community contributions.
