What is Agora?

Agora is a self-hosted, curated Claude Code plugin marketplace — a registry layer over Claude Code's native marketplace mechanism. Each plugin lives in its own GitHub repository with semver release tags; Agora holds a single source-of-truth index, plugins.json (at the repo root), and compiles it into the .claude-plugin/marketplace.json artifact that Claude Code reads. The compiled artifact is committed and tracked, so a fresh clone already has it. Agora is a pure indexer: plugin repos own their own code, their plugin.json, and their release tags — Agora never edits an indexed plugin. You interact with Agora through exactly one Claude Code skill, agora:run, and describe what you want in natural language; it routes your intent to one of eight internal operations.

Note: The canonical nitekeeper/agora marketplace is not accepting third-party plugin submissions at this time — the maintainer doesn't have bandwidth to review them. Please don't open plugin-registration PRs against nitekeeper/agora right now. If you want your own plugins indexed, run your own Agora instance — start with Run Your Own Agora. (Consumers can still add the canonical marketplace to install the maintainer-curated plugins — see Register Agora in Claude Code.)

Pick your path

Two short guides cover the two most common journeys:

• Register Agora in Claude Code — for consumers who want to use plugins from Agora. Add the Agora marketplace and install plugins (including the agora plugin itself, which gives you the agora:run skill).
• Run Your Own Agora — for anyone who wants to index their own plugins. Fork or clone Agora, stand up your own instance, and register your plugins into it.

Three audiences

Agora serves three distinct audiences:

• Consumer — you want to browse and install plugins from Agora. Start with Register Agora in Claude Code.
• Plugin author — you maintain a plugin and want it indexed. To index your own plugins, run your own Agora instance — start with Run Your Own Agora.
• Agora contributor — you want to work on Agora's own tooling, scripts, and CI. Head to the repository README, which covers the contributor setup and test workflow.
