One paste, about two minutes, and you're running the exact same 36 skill plugins David built with. Do this once — it never needs repeating.
Quick context. These skills live in Claude Code — the app that runs on your own computer — not in Cowork or Chat. Each person installs once on their own Mac, and because they arrive as plugins, they update themselves automatically after that.
Install everything — one line
Paste this into TerminalRecommended
This one line turns on all 36 plugins from our 18 trusted marketplaces. Safe to run more than once.
Put it inside a .claude folder at the top of the project — so the path is your-project/.claude/settings.json.
3
Open that project in Claude Code. It detects the file and prompts you to install. Approve it, then run /reload-plugins.
Best for a shared project repo — every teammate who opens it gets the same install prompt automatically. Already have a settings.json? Merge, don't replace — copy the extraKnownMarketplaces and enabledPlugins sections into yours, or ask Claude: “merge these two settings.json files.”
Pick whichever fits: Method 1 works for anyone on their own laptop. Method 2 is better when a whole shared project should set up new teammates automatically. Doing both is fine.
Common questions
Do I have to do this if I only use Cowork or Chat?
No. These are Claude Code skills — they only apply if you use the Claude Code app on your computer. Cowork and Chat have their own separate skills.
Will this change or delete anything I already have?
No. Both methods only add marketplaces and plugins. The script is safe to run repeatedly — if something's already installed it just skips it. Method 2 only asks to add; it won't remove your existing plugins (and if you already have a settings.json, merge rather than overwrite).
Is it safe? Where do these come from?
The plugins come from 18 public marketplaces — one is Anthropic's official catalog, the rest are community catalogs on GitHub (Cloudflare, AWS, marketing skills, and more). Plugins can run code on your machine, so only ever install from sources your team trusts. This list is exactly the set David vetted and uses. The full list of marketplaces and their GitHub links is inside the script and settings file.
Something failed to install. What do I do?
Re-run the script — a flaky network is the usual cause and a second run fixes it. If one specific plugin keeps failing, open Claude Code, run /plugin, go to the Discover tab, and install that one from the menu. You can also check the Errors tab there.
How do updates work later?
Automatically. Anthropic's official plugins auto-update by default; for the community ones, Claude Code refreshes them at startup and tells you when to run /reload-plugins. You won't need to repeat this setup.
What exactly gets installed?
36 plugins across 18 marketplaces — including Anthropic's official set (GitHub, Slack, Asana, Supabase, Firecrawl, security-guidance, skill-creator, and more), Cloudflare, AWS skills, marketing skills, and several developer toolkits. Open the downloadable files to see every name.
Rolling this out to the team? Point people to this page, then have them do Method 1. If your department shares a project repo, add the Method 2 file to it so future teammates are set up the moment they open it. Questions? Use the Email-David or Slack buttons in the footer.
