How to Set Up and Use Awesome AI Plugins
Awesome AI Plugins is a curated, community-maintained index of plugins and extensions for AI assistants including Claude Code, OpenAI Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, and OpenCode. Hosted by Hashgraph Online, the repository documents MCP servers, slash command plugins, workflow integrations, and tool extensions — each vetted through HOL Scanner quality checks requiring a score of at least 80/142 with no critical or high severity findings. It serves as a discovery hub for developers looking to extend their AI coding assistants with capabilities ranging from Chrome DevTools integration to n8n workflow guidance and Langfuse observability.
