Overview

The AgentPowers Claude Desktop extension brings the full marketplace experience into Claude Desktop. Browse skills, read reviews, purchase with Stripe, and install to any supported platform — all without leaving your conversation.

Installation

The recommended way to set up the AgentPowers extension is via the CLI setup command, which auto-configures MCP for all detected AI tools (including Claude Desktop):
npx @agentpowers/cli setup
The .mcpb bundle install method is deprecated in favor of npx @agentpowers/cli setup.
  1. Download claude-extension.mcpb from the latest release
  2. Drag the file into Claude Desktop, or double-click it
  3. Click Install when prompted
No terminal or manual configuration required with the setup command.

Usage

After installation, use natural language to interact with the marketplace:
  • “Search AgentPowers for productivity skills”
  • “Show me details and reviews for the code-review skill”
  • “Buy the premium debugging skill”
  • “Install my purchased skill for Kiro”
  • “What skills do I have installed?”
