What is HOL Plugins?
HOL Plugins is a directory of plugins for AI coding agents. It brings skills, MCP servers and apps from many ecosystems into one searchable, ranked catalog.
The page showed 20 of 55,140 plugins in the current view when this page was written. It says catalog plugin counts are not the same as the counts of agents in HOL’s Registry Broker.
Which tools does it cover?
It indexes plugins for Claude Code, Codex, Grok, Kimi Code, DeepSeek Harness, Antigravity CLI, OpenCode, Cursor and MCP.
- Quick filters such as Featured, Verified, Owner verified, Remote MCP, Skills, MCP and Apps
- Filters by ecosystem, tag and category, plus search
- Sorting by Recommended, Trust or Newest
How does the trust score work?
Each plugin has a trust score that, according to the site, combines identity, activity and verification signals, with a capped lift from community upvotes. Plugins can also carry an Owner verified badge.
The site is clear that scans are not safety guarantees. Trust and security scores do not mean a plugin is safe to install, and the public scanner uses static and catalog scoring, not live exploit testing.
How do I install a plugin?
Each plugin page shows commands for the runtime you use, such as an npx add command or a Codex marketplace add command, with a copy button and setup steps.
How much does it cost?
Listing a public GitHub repository is free. Paid Sponsored placements start at 200 USD a month, and the site said 3 of 4 sponsor slots were open.
Paid HOL Blue and Gold memberships for verified owners do not change search order, trust scores or security scores, according to the site. Commercial reuse and bulk data extraction need a written license.

- PulseMCPA directory of MCP servers and clients.pulsemcp.com ↗
How HOL Plugins compares
| Option | Best for | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| HOL Plugins | Finding and comparing plugins across several coding-agent runtimes in one place | Trust and security scores are not safety guarantees, so review a plugin before you install it |
| MCP Registry | Finding MCP servers from a community-run source | Focused on MCP servers rather than skills and apps across many runtimes |
| Smithery | Browsing and running MCP servers | Its scope and ranking differ from HOL Plugins |
| PulseMCP | Discovering MCP servers | Centered on MCP, with different ranking signals |
HOL Plugins is a fit when you use more than one coding agent and want one catalog with trust signals and install commands. Always review a plugin yourself, whichever directory you use.
