Installation

Claude Code — CLI, VS Code, or JetBrains (Recommended)

These instructions work the same way in:

•Claude Code CLI — type commands directly in the terminal
•VS Code — type commands in the Claude Code chat panel (or use /plugins to open the visual manager)
•JetBrains IDEs — type commands in the Claude Code panel

You only need to do this once:

code

/plugin marketplace add brunoasm/my_claude_skills

Install all plugins:

code

/plugin install general-skills@brunoasm/my_claude_skills
/plugin install bioinfo-skills@brunoasm/my_claude_skills
/plugin install museum-skills@brunoasm/my_claude_skills

Or install only the ones you want — each plugin is independent.

bash

git clone https://github.com/brunoasm/my_claude_skills.git
cd my_claude_skills

Then in Claude Code:

code

/plugin marketplace add .
/plugin install general-skills@.

When installing, Claude Code will ask you to choose a scope:
