## What it does

rudder-core adds RudderStack domain knowledge to Claude Code. It covers data catalogs and data graphs, planning instrumentation, investigating instrumentation issues, and debugging delivery to destinations.

The plugin focuses on connected RudderStack workflows rather than general coding tasks. Its scope runs from describing the data model and planning event collection to tracing problems in instrumentation and destination delivery. The marketplace entry does not list scripts, hooks, or slash commands, so its use is through requests to Claude Code.

This is a focused plugin for RudderStack work. Ask it to shape an instrumentation plan, inspect relationships in a data graph, or reason through a delivery failure.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install rudder-core@claude-community
```

## When to use it
- build an instrumentation plan for events
- trace an instrumentation problem
- debug delivery to a destination
- inspect a RudderStack data catalog
- map relationships in a data graph

## Example prompts
- Create a RudderStack instrumentation plan for these events and explain what each event should capture.
- Help me trace why data is not reaching this RudderStack destination.
- Review this RudderStack data graph and describe the links between its objects.

A Claude Code plugin **marketplace** and [Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io) collection that teaches your AI coding agent how to drive every programmatic [RudderStack](https://www.rudderstack.com/) surface — CLI, MCP server, Terraform, Profiles, and AI events — with the right preflight checks, commands, and recovery paths. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, and 40+ agents.

## What's inside

One marketplace (`rudder-agent-skills`) bundling six plugins. Install the ones you use.

| Plugin | Status | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| [`rudder-core`](plugins/rudder-core/) | ✅ Available | Cross-tool domain knowledge: data catalog, tracking plans, data graphs, instrumentation planning & debugging |
| [`rudder-cli`](plugins/rudder-cli/) | ✅ Available | Workflows for [`rudder-cli`](https://github.com/rudderlabs/rudder-iac) and [`rudder-typer`](https://www.rudderstack.com/docs/features/ruddertyper/) |
| [`rudder-mcp`](plugins/rudder-mcp/) | ✅ Available | Workflows for [RudderStack's hosted MCP server](https://mcp.rudderstack.com/docs) at `mcp.rudderstack.com` |
| [`rudder-terraform`](plugins/rudder-terraform/) | ✅ Available | Workflows for the [Terraform provider](https://github.com/rudderlabs/terraform-provider-rudderstack) |
| [`rudder-profiles`](plugins/rudder-profiles/) | ✅ Available | Workflows for [RudderStack Profiles](https://github.com/rudderlabs/profiles-mcp): setup, project creation, analysis, updates, and debugging |
| [`rudder-ai-events`](plugins/rudder-ai-events/) | ✅ Available | Onboard an existing app to RudderStack AI events with [`@rudderstack/ai`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@rudderstack/ai) (Node.js), [`rudderstack-ai`](https://pypi.org/project/rudderstack-ai/) (Python) and `ai-sdk-go` (Go): discover, plan, instrument, verify |

Most users drive RudderStack with more than one tool. Install `rudder-core` plus whichever tool plugins you use; the domain knowledge lives in `rudder-core` so it never duplicates across tool-specific plugins.

## Installation

One command, any agent — no cloning, no local setup.

### Any agent — Skills CLI (recommended)

The [Skills CLI](https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills) installs these skills into Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, OpenCode, and [40+ agents](https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills#supported-agents):

```bash
# Interactive — pick skills and your agent
npx skills add rudderlabs/rudder-agent-skills

# Or: list first · install everything globally · target one agent
npx skills add rudderlabs/rudder-agent-skills --list
npx skills add rudderlabs/rudder-agent-skills -g --all
npx skills add rudderlabs/rudder-agent-skills -a claude-code --skill rudder-cli-workflow

# Update anytime
npx skills update
```

### Claude Code — plugin marketplace

```bash
/plugin marketplace add rudderlabs/rudder-agent-skills
