wshobson/agents is one of the biggest free collections for Claude Code: 94 plugins holding 202 specialist agents, 185 skills and 105 commands. An agent here is a set of instructions for a specialist subagent that Claude hands a job to, so instead of one Claude doing everything, a security reviewer checks your code, a debugger chases the error and an SEO writer drafts the post. You install plugins one at a time, and each plugin loads only its own agents and tools, so Claude's context stays clean.

What's inside

  • Development: debugging-toolkit, backend-development, frontend-mobile-development, ui-design, developer-essentials.
  • Quality and security: unit-testing, security-scanning (code and dependency scanning), security-compliance (SOC2/HIPAA/GDPR), backend-api-security.
  • Operations: incident-response, cloud-infrastructure, full-stack-orchestration (backend to frontend to testing to security to deployment).
  • Not only for coders: seo-content-creation, content-marketing, social-publishing, startup-business-analyst (market sizing, financial models), business-analytics, before-you-build (a risk review before you build a product).
  • Languages: python-development (3 agents, 16 skills and a scaffolding command), javascript-typescript and 8 more.
