discover-plugins — Claude Code skill: find ruflo plugins by task
A skill that discovers and recommends ruflo plugins based on your workflow, installed MCP tools, and current task. Handy when starting a new project or figuring out which plugins fit your needs.
npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill discover-plugins -a claude-codeWhat discover-plugins does
discover-plugins searches the ruflo plugin catalog by keywords or recommends matches based on your task description. The skill checks what's already installed in your project, browses featured plugins, and surfaces options that complement your current stack.
The workflow includes several steps: list installed plugins via ls plugins/, browse marketplace recommendations, search by task keywords, and fetch full details for each plugin. The catalog spans 32 plugins—from foundational ruflo-core and ruflo-swarm for orchestration to specialized ones like ruflo-goals for long-horizon planning and ruflo-neural-trader for trading strategy backtesting.
You pass a task description or search query. The skill runs on all major platforms: Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI and others.
What it helps with
- pick the right ruflo plugin for your current task
- see which plugins are already installed in your project
- find a plugin by name or capability
- get recommendations for plugins that complete your toolset
- review plugin features before installing
