Getting Started
Start with the general Philosophy when you want the why behind the workflow. Use Installation for the full Claude marketplace install, update, and uninstall paths.
Fast Path In Claude Code
Register the marketplace and install the plugins you need:
/plugin marketplace add sujeet-pro/agents-devkit/plugin install adk-core@adk/plugin install adk-code@adk/plugin install adk-review@adk/plugin install adk-docs@adk/plugin install adk-investigate@adk/reload-pluginsThen run setup:
/adk-core:setupadk-core:setup checks CLI dependencies, meta-info files under ~/.config/adk/, and environment variables referenced by shipped MCP configs.
Claude Desktop
Claude Desktop does not load a plugin’s .mcp.json file. Install the same plugins, then configure any required custom connector or workspace connector in Desktop before running a skill that needs it.
The skills will stop in Phase 1 if a required connector is missing and will tell you what to configure. You can skip a check when you know that capability is not needed for the selected mode, such as a dry-run review that drafts findings but does not post comments.
Validate Locally
For repository contributors:
