Claude Code is the full plugin (skills + agents + hooks). Cursor gets the same `ork` plugin minus Claude hook scripts. skills.sh is skills only — start with the 12 below, not the whole catalog.\n\n### Claude Code\n\n```bash\n/plugin marketplace add yonatangross/orchestkit\n/plugin install ork\n```\n\nThen `/ork:setup`. The wizard scans the repo, recommends skills, and writes MCP config.\n\nCLI equivalent: `claude install orchestkit/ork`.\n\n### Cursor\n\nSettings → Plugins / marketplaces → add `yonatangross/orchestkit` → enable **ork** → **open a new chat**. Same plugin Claude Code installs, not a five-skill fork. See [Install → Cursor](#cursor).\n\n### skills.sh (Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, …)\n\nStarter 12 — doctor, setup, explore, implement, verify, review-pr, commit, expect, assess, brainstorm, create-pr, remember:\n\n```bash\nnpx skills add yonatangross/orchestkit -s doctor -s setup -s explore -s implement -s verify -s review-pr -s commit -s expect -s assess -s brainstorm -s create-pr -s remember\n```\n\nThe skill named `implement` is the implement workflow (`/ork:implement` in Claude Code). There is no `ork-implement` on the Claude plugin; Codex uses `$ork-implement` after the Codex pack is installed. Full catalog: `npx skills add yonatangross/orchestkit` (hundreds of SKILL.md files — do not treat that as unique users).\n\n---\n\n## Why OrchestKit?\n\nEvery Claude Code session starts from zero. You explain your stack, patterns, preferences—again and again.\n\nOrchestKit gives Claude **persistent knowledge** of production patterns that work automatically:\n\n| Without | With OrchestKit |\n|---------|-----------------|\n| \"Use FastAPI with async SQLAlchemy 2.0...\" | \"Create an API endpoint\" → Done right |\n| \"Remember cursor pagination, not offset...\" | Agents know your patterns |\n| \"Don't commit to main branch...\" | Hooks block bad commits |\n| \"Run tests before committing...\" | `/ork:commit` runs tests for you |\n\n---\n\n## What You Get\n\n**One unified plugin, everything included.**\n\n| Component | Details |\n|-----------|---------|\n| **106 Skills** | RAG patterns, FastAPI, React 19, testing, security, database design, ML integration — loaded on-demand, zero overhead |\n| **36 Agents** | Specialized personas (backend-architect, frontend-dev, security-auditor) — route tasks to the right expert |\n| **172 Hooks** | Pre-commit checks, git protection, quality gates, browser safety — ship with confidence |\n\nAll available in a single `/plugin install ork`. Skills load on-demand. Hooks work automatically.\n\n**[Browse everything in the Docs →](https://orchestkit.yonyon.ai/docs/skills/overview)**\n\n---\n\n## Key Commands\n\n```bash\n/ork:auto # Front door: describe a goal, it routes to the right skill\n/ork:setup # Personalized onboarding wizard\n/ork:implement # Full-stack implementation with parallel agents\n/ork:expect # Diff-aware AI browser testing\n/ork:review-pr # PR review with parallel agents\n/ork:verify # Multi-agent validation\n/ork:commit # Conventional commit with pre-checks\n/ork:explore # Analyze unfamiliar codebase\n/ork:remember # Save to persistent memory\n/ork:doctor # Health check\n```\n\n---\n\n## Configuration\n\n`/ork:setup` detects your stack, recommends MCP servers, and writes the configuration for you.\n\n### Recommended MCP Servers\n\n| Server | Purpose | Required? |\n|--------|---------|-----------|\n| Context7 | Up-to-date library docs | **Prerequisite** (22 of 36 agents grant its tools) |\n| Memory | Knowledge graph persistence | Recommended |\n| Sequential Thinking | Structured reasoning for subagents | Recommended |\n| Tavily | Web search and extraction | Optional |\n\nSet `\"alwaysLoad\": true` on the first three in your `.mcp.json`. It skips the per-skill tool probe and shaves ~150ms off cold starts.\n\n**Context7 is a prerequisite, and ork does not ship it.** 22 agents grant\n`mcp__context7__*` in their frontmatter, but `.mcp.json` is user-owned and project-scoped,\nso the grant refers to a server you add. Skip it and those agents answer from training\ndata with no error raised. The recommended entry is the hosted HTTP server, which costs\nno local process:\n\n```json\n\"context7\": {\n \"type\": \"http\",\n \"url\": \"https://mcp.context7.com/mcp\"\n}\n```\n\nFree tier: 1,000 requests, public repos, no account. Context7 Pro ($10 per seat per\nmonth) raises that to 5,000 per seat and parses private repos; add\n`\"headers\": { \"Authorization\": \"Bearer ${CONTEXT7_API_KEY}\" }` and export the `ctx7sk-`\nkey. Add the header only once the variable is exported: with it unset the unexpanded\nliteral is sent as the token and every query fails, and it does **not** fall back to the\nanonymous free tier, so the keyless entry above is strictly better than a header with no\nkey behind it. The legacy stdio transport (`npx -y @upstash/context7-mcp@4.0.2`) is the fallback\nwhen the hosted endpoint is unreachable, but it spawns one child process per Claude Code\nsession, so the fan-out scales with how many sessions you keep open.\n\n### Customizing skills\n\nSkills install as files on your disk, but **don't hand-edit the installed copy** — it gets overwritten on update and silently diverges from the canonical playbook. The supported ways to extend (user-level skills, project skills, upstream PRs, or disabling a bundled skill) are in [docs/extending-skills.md](docs/extending-skills.md).\n\n---\n\n## What OrchestKit observes\n\nOrchestKit is a quality-gate plugin, so its hooks are the product rather than an\nadd-on. This section states plainly what they see, where it goes, and how to turn\neach piece off.\n\n**Scope: broad and intentional.** OrchestKit registers 172 hooks across 32\nlifecycle events, including `SessionStart`, `UserPromptSubmit`, `PreToolUse`,\n`PostToolUse`, and `Stop`. They are **not** gated to a particular framework or\nproject type, because the gates they enforce (secret-write blocking, protected-file\nguards, git safety, file-size limits, agent status protocol) apply to any codebase.\nIf you only want gates on some projects, enable the plugin per-project rather than\nglobally.\n\n**Where data goes: a local file on your own disk.**\n\n| What | Destination | Notes |\n|---|---|---|\n| Lifecycle events (session end, PR merged, goal converged, chain phase) | `~/.local/state/orchestkit/events.jsonl` | Written unconditionally, rotated at 10 MB. `ORK_EVENTS_LOG` redirects the path (used by the test suite) |\n| Hook metrics: event name, tool name, payload size, duration | same local file | Size-capped metrics only |\n| Prompt text and file contents | **Never recorded** | Hooks read them to make an allow/deny decision, then discard |\n| Remote sync | **Off** | No endpoint is compiled in; see below |\n\nThere is deliberately **no global kill switch** for the local write, because the\ngates depend on that state (the git-safety and chain-staleness hooks read their\nown prior events). To stop it entirely, disable the plugin. Individual noisy hooks\nhave their own opt-outs: `ORK_DISABLE_DEBT_TRACKER`, `ORK_DISABLE_WORKTREE_VERIFIER`,\n`ORK_DISABLE_COORDINATION_METRICS`, `ORK_NO_NOTIFY`, `ORK_NO_STALE_SWEEP`, and\n`ORCHESTKIT_SKIP_SLOW_HOOKS` among others.\n\n**Network access is opt-in and unset by default.** There is no hardcoded remote\nhost anywhere in the shipped hook bundles (`grep -o 'https\\?://' plugins/ork/hooks/dist/*.mjs`\nreturns nothing). An outbound call happens only if you configure a destination\nyourself, via one of:\n\n- `ORCHESTKIT_HOOK_URL` + `ORCHESTKIT_HOOK_TOKEN`, which enable the manual\n `hooks/bin/telemetry-sync.mjs` CLI. It POSTs your local JSONL to *your own*\n endpoint. No hook ever invokes it; you run it by hand.\n- `ORK_HQ_TELEMETRY_URL`, which points the telemetry HTTP sink at *your own* collector.\n- `ORK_HQ_TELEMETRY_USE_HQ_API=1` together with `HQ_API_URL`, the same sink aimed\n at a self-hosted HQ API.\n\nThe sink returns early when the URL or the token is missing, and\n`telemetry-sync.mjs` prints `No ORCHESTKIT_HOOK_URL or TOKEN configured. Nothing\nto sync.` then exits 0. There is no analytics ping, no crash reporter, and no\nfeature-flag fetch.\n\n**What OrchestKit never reads.** No OS keychain lookups, no `~/.aws/credentials`,\nno SSH private keys, no browser cookie or login stores, no clipboard. The one\nplace secret-shaped paths appear in the source is\n`plugins/ork/hooks/dist/pretool.mjs`, where `id_rsa`, `.pem`, `.env`, and\n`credentials.json` form a **blocklist** that stops Claude writing to them. That\ncode denies access; it does not read those files.\n\n**Third-party MCP servers are recommendations, not bundled dependencies.** The\nplugin ships no `.mcp.json` and declares no `mcpServers`. The table under\n[Configuration](#configuration) is advisory, and `/ork:setup` asks before writing\nanything.\n\n---\n\n## Install\n\n```bash\n/plugin install ork\n```\n\nNo tiering. No version confusion. Just one powerful plugin.\n\nNot on Claude Code? Pull a **starter 12** into any agent (Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, …) via [skills.sh](https://www.skills.sh/yonatangross/orchestkit) — do not install the whole firehose on day one:\n\n```bash\nnpx skills add yonatangross/orchestkit -s doctor -s setup -s explore -s implement -s verify -s review-pr -s commit -s expect -s assess -s brainstorm -s create-pr -s remember\n```\n\nAll skills: `npx skills add yonatangross/orchestkit`. The implement skill is [`implement`](https://www.skills.sh/yonatangross/orchestkit/implement), not `ork-implement`.\n\n### Cursor\n\nCursor loads [Agent Plugins](https://agent-plugins.org) and Cursor plugins.\nThis repo already ships the Agent Plugins manifest at `plugins/ork/plugin.json`.\nAdd the GitHub repo as a Cursor marketplace (Settings → `yonatangross/orchestkit`),\nenable **`ork`**, then **open a new chat**. That is the same plugin Claude Code\ninstalls, not a five-skill fork.\n\nClaude hook scripts are not registered for Cursor: they depend on\n`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}` (orchestkit#293, closed). Cursor enforcement for HQ\nrepos stays in the consuming project's `.cursor/hooks.json`.\n\n\"Include third-party Plugins\" can leak SKILL.md from `~/.claude/plugins`. That\nis not an install. Proof is the `ork` plugin id plus the full skill catalog.\n\n### Codex\n\nCodex uses its own plugin format, skill picker, and standalone role\nconfiguration. Add OrchestKit's Codex marketplace, then install the small\nportable workflow pack:\n\n```bash\ncodex plugin marketplace add yonatangross/orchestkit --ref main --sparse .agents/plugins --sparse plugins/ork-codex\ncodex plugin add ork-codex@orchestkit-codex\n```\n\nRestart Codex after installation. Invoke a workflow explicitly with\n`$ork-brainstorm`, `$ork-explore`, `$ork-implement`, `$ork-assess`, `$ork-verify`,\nor `$ork-review-pr`; their narrow descriptions also let Codex select the relevant\nworkflow automatically.\n\nThe plugin intentionally ships roles as templates because Codex loads custom\nroles from `~/.codex/agents/`, not from a plugin manifest. From an OrchestKit\ncheckout, run this one-time, non-overwriting install:\n\n```bash\nplugins/ork-codex/scripts/install-codex-roles.sh ~/.codex/agents\n```\n\nIt installs `ork_explorer`, `ork_implementer`, `ork_reviewer`, and\n`ork_verifier`; restart Codex before spawning them.\n\n#### Documentation lookup (context7)\n\nThe plugin ships a [context7](https://context7.com) MCP server in its own\nmanifest (`mcpServers` in `.codex-plugin/plugin.json`, defined in `mcp.json`),\nso installing the plugin registers it. Confirm with `codex mcp get context7`.\nIt is scoped to the only two tools context7 exposes, `resolve-library-id` and\n`query-docs`, and it uses the hosted HTTP transport rather than an `npx` stdio\nchild, so it costs no extra process per Codex session.\n\nExport a key before starting Codex. The plugin references the variable name\nand never stores the value, so no token is written to `~/.codex/config.toml`:\n\n```bash\nexport CONTEXT7_API_KEY_CODEX=\"\"\n```\n\nPut that in your shell profile so every Codex session inherits it. Get the\nkey from your own context7 account and keep the value out of the repository.\nIf you store it in a secret manager, substitute your own vault and item names\n(with the 1Password CLI the reference is `op:////credential`), and\ncache the resolved value instead of re-reading the vault in every shell: each\nraw read is a separate unlock prompt.\n\nTwo behaviors worth knowing:\n\n- A server you already define yourself under `[mcp_servers.context7]` in\n `~/.codex/config.toml` **wins**, and the plugin's definition is ignored\n entirely (including its tool scoping). That is intentional: your own\n configuration is never overridden. Remove your entry if you want the\n plugin's.\n- Without a valid key the server still connects and still lists its tools.\n Only a real call fails, with `Invalid API key`. A successful connection is\n therefore not proof of authentication.\n\n---\n\n## FAQ\n\n
\nPlugin not found?\n\n```bash\n/plugin list\n/plugin uninstall ork && /plugin install ork\n```\n

\nHooks not firing?\n\nRun `/ork:doctor` to diagnose.\n
\n\n
\nClaude Code version?\n\nRequires **≥2.1.251** (supported floor; Opus 5 as the default Opus, `xhigh` effort, dynamic workflows, `sandbox.network.strictAllowlist`, native binary, hardened `Bash(rm:*)`/`Bash(find:*)` rules). Check with `claude --version`.\n\nRaising this floor is a breaking change and ships as a major release. See [STABILITY.md](STABILITY.md) for the full contract, and `shared/cc-support.json` for the authoritative window.\n

\nSuperpowers vs OrchestKit?\n\nComplementary, not a rival listing. Superpowers (official Anthropic marketplace) is process — how the agent works a task. OrchestKit is production patterns plus lifecycle hooks.
