toby-plugins — a Claude Code marketplace provided by rent-the-toby.com

A catalog of Claude Code plugins from rent-the-toby.com. Add the marketplace once, then install any of the plugins below.

Plugins

Plugin	Description	Docs
tce	Context-engineering development workflow (ticket → research → plan → implement), plus review, discussion, and design-exploration commands and a set of research subagents.	plugins/tce/README.md

Add the marketplace

# Add the marketplace (once per machine). A git URL or local path also work.
/plugin marketplace add tobyS/toby-plugins

Then install a plugin from it — see each plugin's docs for the exact command (e.g. tce):

/plugin install tce@toby-plugins

Update

/plugin marketplace update toby-plugins

Installed plugins move to a new version when you refresh the marketplace.

Development

This section is for developers working on the plugins in this repository; users installing a plugin don't need any of it.

Two names, kept distinct: toby-plugins is the marketplace (the catalog you add); a plugin (e.g. tce) is what you install from it, using <plugin>@toby-plugins.

tobyS/toby-plugins is the repo's GitHub location (owner + repo). The repo name matches the marketplace name in .claude-plugin/marketplace.json (toby-plugins) by design, so the same string appears in both marketplace add …/toby-plugins and in install <plugin>@toby-plugins.

Repository layout

This is a monorepo marketplace: the marketplace lives at the repo root and lists plugins that live under plugins/. Today there's one plugin (tce); adding another is a new plugins/<name>/ directory plus an entry in marketplace.json.

.claude-plugin/marketplace.json   # the marketplace (name: toby-plugins) — lists the plugins
plugins/
└── tce/                          # the tce plugin (CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT points here once installed)
    ├── .claude-plugin/plugin.json  # plugin manifest (name: tce, version)
    ├── README.md                   # the tce plugin docs
    ├── commands/                   # the /tce:* slash commands
    ├── agents/                     # research subagents
    ├── hooks/hooks.json            # SessionStart init nudge + ticket-status PostToolUse hooks
    ├── scripts/                    # ticket scripts (lib.sh + next-ticket/ticket/open_tickets + hook scripts)
    └── templates/tce/              # skeletons /tce:init copies into a project (config, profile.md, design-system.md)

All plugin-internal references use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/... (the plugin dir), so they are unaffected by where the plugin sits in the repo.

Update gating

Updates are gated per plugin by its version (in the plugin's plugin.json, mirrored in the marketplace entry), so projects only move when a plugin is bumped.

Validate & release

claude plugin validate .                 # validate the marketplace (+ the plugins it lists)
claude plugin validate ./plugins/tce     # validate just the tce plugin
# bump "version" in plugins/tce/.claude-plugin/plugin.json AND the tce entry in
# .claude-plugin/marketplace.json, then:
claude plugin tag ./plugins/tce          # create the tce--v<version> release tag
