Anthropic has open-sourced the knowledge-work-plugins repository on GitHub: 11 official plugins that turn Claude into a specialist assistant for sales, legal, finance, data and other roles. The plugins are pure Markdown + JSON files — no code, no build steps — wiring into Slack, Notion, Jira, Microsoft 365 and more via MCP connectors. The repo hit GitHub trending on October 9 and has passed 28,000 stars.

Key facts

  1. 11 official plugins:productivity, sales, customer-support, product-management, marketing, legal, finance, data, enterprise-search and bio-research, plus a plugin-management plugin.
  2. File-based:Markdown + manifest (plugin.json) + .mcp.json connector config — no code, no infrastructure, no build steps; companies can rewrite them for their own tool stacks.
  3. Two invocation modes:skills fire automatically in relevant contexts, while slash commands (e.g. /sales:call-prep, /data:write-query) are invoked explicitly.
  4. Connector ecosystem:wires into Slack, Notion, Jira, HubSpot, Salesforce, Snowflake, Microsoft 365 and more via MCP; Apache 2.0 licensed.

Why it matters

The 11 official plugins cover sales, legal, finance, data and other roles; they are plain Markdown and JSON files with no code or build steps, connecting to Slack, Jira and other tools via MCP.
