Claudest offers a curated marketplace of battle-tested plugins for Claude Code, aimed at developers and power users. It provides personally vetted tools to enhance productivity, automate workflows, and extend Claude's capabilities across coding, research, and content creation.

How It Works

This project serves as a plugin marketplace for Claude Code, prioritizing reliability through the maintainer's personal use and iteration. Plugins are selected for their proven effectiveness in real-world projects, ensuring immediate functionality and user benefit.

Quick Start & Requirements

Install via /plugin marketplace add gupsammy/claudest, then add plugins like /plugin install claude-memory@claudest. Auto-updates are configurable. Dependencies include yt-dlp, reddit-cli, bird (brew), brave-cli (optional), curl for EzyCopy, GEMINI_API_KEY/uv for image generation, and ffmpeg/ffprobe for media tasks.

Highlighted Details

• Memory & Research: claude-memory provides persistent conversation storage with FTS5 search and context injection. claude-research enables autonomous multi-platform research and YouTube analysis.
• Coding & Skills: claude-coding offers comprehensive tools for the commit loop, project maintenance, documentation generation, and code auditing. claude-skills facilitates creation, repair, and improvement of Claude Code skills/agents.
• Thinking & Content: claude-thinking uses multi-agent deliberation (council) and interviews (brainstorm). claude-content handles image generation (Gemini API), video/audio manipulation, and frame extraction.
• Utilities & Integration: claude-utilities converts webpages to clean Markdown. claude-claw integrates with OpenClaw for advisory and skill creation.

Maintenance & Community

Personally maintained, with inclusion based on daily usability. Contributions welcomed via issues for alignment. Forking is encouraged for building personal marketplaces. No specific community channels or roadmap links are provided.

Licensing & Compatibility

Licensed under MIT, permitting broad use, modification, and distribution, including commercial applications and closed-source integration.

Limitations & Caveats

Potential bus factor due to single maintainer. Some plugins require specific external dependencies (e.g., API keys, media tools). Focus is on practical, proven tools rather than exhaustive coverage.
