Claude opens plugin directory submission portal, making Plugins the main way to extend Claude
Claude 开放插件目录提交门户,Plugins 成为第三方扩展的主要方式
Anthropic launched a submission portal for the Claude plugin directory. Developers can now submit their own plugins for listing. This marks Plugins replacing Connectors as the primary way to extend Claude. Submissions require a name, description, logo, OAuth config, and at least one example command. The post doesn't mention review timelines or revenue share.
Why it matters: Anthropic opening a plugin submission portal is a real signal for the developer ecosystem. Score isn't higher because the post doesn't disclose review timelines or revenue sharing—cold-start uncertainty remains.
