# Claude Code Plugins

Repomix provides official plugins for [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/overview) that integrate seamlessly with the AI-powered development environment. These plugins make it easy to analyze and pack codebases directly within Claude Code using natural language commands.

## Installation

### 1. Add the Repomix Plugin Marketplace

First, add the Repomix plugin marketplace to Claude Code:

```text
/plugin marketplace add yamadashy/repomix
```

### 2. Install Plugins

Install the plugins using the following commands:

```text
# Install MCP server plugin (recommended foundation)
/plugin install repomix-mcp@repomix

# Install commands plugin (extends functionality)
/plugin install repomix-commands@repomix

# Install repository explorer plugin (AI-powered analysis)
/plugin install repomix-explorer@repomix
```

::: tip Plugin Relationship
The `repomix-mcp` plugin is recommended as a foundation. The `repomix-commands` plugin provides convenient slash commands, while `repomix-explorer` adds AI-powered analysis capabilities. While you can install them independently, using all three provides the most comprehensive experience.

### Alternative: Interactive Installation

You can also use the interactive plugin installer:

```text
/plugin
```

This opens an interactive interface where you can browse and install available plugins.

## Available Plugins

### 1. repomix-mcp (MCP Server Plugin)
