Claude plugins and skills turn a generalist into a specialist. Here are the ones worth installing.
A skill teaches Claude how to do a task. A connector gives it access to an app. And a plugin bundles them together.
For work, Anthropic's document skills build real Word, Excel and PowerPoint files, and Slack and Notion plugins plug into your team.
For coding, try Frontend Design, Code Review, GitHub, and the community favourite, Superpowers.
One warning: a plugin can run code on your computer. Stick to Anthropic's directory, and read a skill before you turn it on.
