SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Choosing the right plugins from a 32-plugin ecosystem is difficult when you do not know what each one adds or which fits your current task. This Skill guides discovery of ruflo plugins by matching your workflow, installed MCP tools, and task description to relevant plugin recommendations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Marketplace Browsing: Lists featured, trending, and official plugins via MCP transfer tools so you can see what is available before installing.
  • Task-Based Recommendations: Calls guidance tools with your current task description to get personalized plugin suggestions and capability summaries.
  • Decision Guide: Maps common goals (build a feature, audit security, manage IoT devices, develop trading strategies) to specific plugin combinations.
  • Use Case: You are starting a multi-file refactor and are unsure which plugins to install. The Skill checks what is already installed, searches the marketplace, and recommends ruflo-core, ruflo-swarm, and ruflo-testgen with install commands.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to recommend which ruflo plugins to install for your current task, for example by saying which plugins should I use to build and test a new feature.

Frequently Asked Questions about discover-plugins

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find which ruflo plugins to install for my project?▼

Run the discover-plugins skill, which checks your installed plugins, browses the marketplace via MCP transfer tools, and calls guidance_recommend with your task description to produce personalized plugin suggestions with install commands.

What ruflo plugins should I use to build a new feature?▼

The decision guide recommends ruflo-core as the base layer, ruflo-swarm for multi-agent coordination across files, and ruflo-testgen for test gap detection and coverage. Install them with /plugin install <name>@ruflo.

How do I check which ruflo plugins are already installed?▼

The skill runs ls plugins/ to list what is already installed locally before searching the marketplace, so recommendations avoid duplicates and build on your existing setup.

Does discover-plugins work without the ruflo MCP server?▼

No. The skill depends on MCP tools from the ruflo-core plugin server, such as transfer_plugin-search and guidance_recommend. Without that server running, marketplace search and recommendation calls will fail.

What are the limitations of plugin recommendations?▼

Recommendations are limited to the 32 plugins in the ruflo catalog and depend on the quality of your task description. The skill cannot evaluate third-party plugins outside the ruflo marketplace.
