Curie plugins
The official Curie plugin for coding agents. One install per host, and your agent can search your Curie library, read papers, write notes, and answer comments without leaving the terminal it is already in.
What the plugin contains
A skill, and nothing else. It tells your agent how to install the Curie CLI,
how to sign you in, and to run curie skill for the command manual. The manual
is printed by the CLI itself, so it always matches the version on the machine
and never goes stale in here.
No binary is committed to this repository and the plugin downloads nothing on
its own. The CLI is installed by the line Curie publishes at
https://curie.is/cli/prompt.md, from downloads.curie.is, and the installer
checks the published SHA-256 sum. Once installed, curie is on PATH and
curie update keeps working as usual.
Install
| Host | Install, once per machine |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | claude plugin marketplace add CurieSocial/curie-plugins then claude plugin install curie@curie-plugins. In an open session, /plugin marketplace add CurieSocial/curie-plugins, /plugin install curie@curie-plugins and /reload-plugins. |
| Codex | codex plugin marketplace add CurieSocial/curie-plugins then codex plugin add curie@curie-plugins. In an open session, /plugins. |
| Grok Build | grok plugin marketplace add CurieSocial/curie-plugins then grok plugin install curie --trust. |
| Copilot CLI | copilot plugin marketplace add CurieSocial/curie-plugins then copilot plugin install curie@curie-plugins. |
| Gemini CLI | gemini extensions install https://github.com/CurieSocial/curie-plugins. |
| Cursor | No command line. Clone this repository and copy plugins/curie to ~/.cursor/plugins/local/curie, then run Developer: Reload Window. Team and Enterprise admins can import this repository as a team marketplace instead. |
| Anything else | There is no plugin to install. Give your agent https://curie.is/cli/prompt.md and it will set Curie up by hand. |
In Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build and Copilot CLI these are ordinary shell commands, so an agent with permission to run commands can install the plugin itself.
For a team
A repository can declare the marketplace, and Claude Code adds and enables it
for everyone who trusts the folder. In .claude/settings.json:
{
"extraKnownMarketplaces": {
"curie-plugins": {
"source": { "source": "github", "repo": "CurieSocial/curie-plugins" }
}
},
"enabledPlugins": { "curie@curie-plugins": true }
}
Codex workspace admins can import the marketplace with daily sync, and Copilot CLI enterprises can push plugins to every client.

The two copies of SKILL.md are kept identical by the check below.
Checks
python3 scripts/check_manifests.py
It proves every manifest agrees on the plugin name, version and description,
that the marketplaces point at plugins/curie, that both copies of the skill
are identical, and that every curie command the skill names is one the CLI
ships. CI runs it, along with claude plugin validate ./plugins/curie.
