# How to Install PM Skills Marketplace in Claude Code: A Step-by-Step Guide > Easily install PM Skills Marketplace in Claude Code with our step-by-step guide. Follow simple commands to register the marketplace and install plugins for enhanced productivity. - Repository: [Pawel Huryn/pm-skills](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills) - Tags: how-to-guide - Published: 2026-06-11 --- **To install the PM Skills Marketplace in Claude Code, run `claude plugin marketplace add phuryn/pm-skills` to register the marketplace, then install individual plugins using `claude plugin install @pm-skills`.** The **PM Skills Marketplace** is a modular plugin ecosystem for product managers that integrates directly with Claude Code. Hosted in the `phuryn/pm-skills` repository, this marketplace ships nine specialized plugins containing domain-specific skills and slash commands. Each plugin bundles structured knowledge with executable workflows that run inside your Claude Code environment. ## What Is the PM Skills Marketplace? The PM Skills Marketplace is a **plugin-based architecture** that extends Claude Code with product management capabilities. Unlike monolithic tools, it separates concerns into nine distinct plugins—such as `pm-toolkit`, `pm-product-strategy`, and `pm-execution`—each containing **skills** (knowledge modules) and **commands** (slash-commands that chain skills together). According to the repository's [`README.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/README.md), the marketplace follows a two-phase installation: first registering the marketplace source, then selectively installing the plugins you need. This modular approach ensures you only load the capabilities relevant to your current workflow. ## Prerequisites Before installing, ensure you have: - **Claude Code CLI** installed and authenticated on your system - **GitHub access** to reach the `phuryn/pm-skills` repository - **Claude Code version** that supports the plugin marketplace (see [`CLAUDE.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/CLAUDE.md) in the repository for version-specific notes) ## Installation Steps ### Step 1: Add the Marketplace Register the marketplace source so Claude Code knows where to fetch plugin definitions: ```bash claude plugin marketplace add phuryn/pm-skills ``` This command creates the registry entry pointing to the `phuryn/pm-skills` repository. After execution, Claude Code can resolve plugin names against this marketplace. ### Step 2: Install Individual Plugins Once the marketplace is registered, install specific plugins using the `@pm-skills` syntax. You can install all nine plugins or select only those matching your needs: ```bash # Install the core toolkit first claude plugin install pm-toolkit@pm-skills # Strategy and discovery plugins claude plugin install pm-product-strategy@pm-skills claude plugin install pm-product-discovery@pm-skills claude plugin install pm-market-research@pm-skills # Analytics and growth plugins claude plugin install pm-data-analytics@pm-skills claude plugin install pm-marketing-growth@pm-skills # Execution and shipping plugins claude plugin install pm-go-to-market@pm-skills claude plugin install pm-execution@pm-skills claude plugin install pm-ai-shipping@pm-skills ``` Each installation pulls the skill files and command definitions from the repository's plugin directories (e.g., `pm-toolkit/`, `pm-execution/`) into your local Claude Code environment. ## Available Plugins in the Marketplace The repository defines nine modular plugins under the *Available Plugins* section of [`README.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/README.md): 1. **pm-toolkit** – Core utilities and shared skills used by other plugins 2. **pm-product-strategy** – Strategy canvases, vision frameworks, and competitive positioning 3. **pm-product-discovery** – User research synthesis and opportunity identification 4. **pm-market-research** – Market sizing, competitive analysis, and trend evaluation 5. **pm-data-analytics** – Metrics definition, analytics implementation guidance, and data interpretation 6. **pm-marketing-growth** – Growth loops, acquisition strategies, and retention frameworks 7. **pm-go-to-market** – Launch planning, positioning, and cross-functional coordination 8. **pm-execution** – PRD generation, OKR tracking, and roadmap management (documented in [`pm-execution/README.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/pm-execution/README.md)) 9. **pm-ai-shipping** – AI-assisted development workflows and shipping accelerators ## Using PM Skills Commands After installation, invoke commands using slash notation. The plugins-register commands automatically load skills from the installed plugin directories: ```bash # Run a full product discovery workflow /discover AI-powered meeting summarizer for remote teams # Create a product strategy canvas /strategy B2B project-management tool for agencies # Generate a PRD from a feature idea /write-prd Smart notification system that reduces alert fatigue ``` Commands chain together the skills defined in each plugin's skill files, executing the domain-specific logic packaged in repositories like `pm-product-strategy/` and `pm-execution/`. ## Key Repository Files Understanding the source structure helps troubleshoot installations: - **[`README.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/README.md)** – Central hub with installation instructions and plugin overview (referenced at `https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/README.md`) - **[`CLAUDE.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/CLAUDE.md)** – Official guidance for Claude agents and version compatibility notes - **[`pm-toolkit/README.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/pm-toolkit/README.md)** – Demonstrates the concrete layout of skills and commands for the core plugin - **[`pm-product-strategy/README.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/pm-product-strategy/README.md)** – Example of strategy-focused plugin organization - **[`pm-execution/README.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/pm-execution/README.md)** – Shows execution-oriented skills including PRD and roadmap commands These files define the marketplace's architecture (plugins → skills → commands) and provide the exact installation commands referenced above. ## Summary - **Register first**: Use `claude plugin marketplace add phuryn/pm-skills` to enable the marketplace source - **Install selectively**: Use `claude plugin install @pm-skills` to pull only the plugins you need from the nine available options - **Verify files**: Check [`README.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/README.md) and [`CLAUDE.md`](https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills/blob/main/CLAUDE.md) for the latest installation requirements and version compatibility - **Execute commands**: After installation, use slash commands like `/discover`, `/strategy`, and `/write-prd` to invoke PM skills ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Do I need to install all nine plugins to use the PM Skills Marketplace? No. The marketplace is designed for modular installation. You can install only the plugins relevant to your current workflow—such as `pm-product-strategy` for planning or `pm-execution` for documentation—and add others later using the same `claude plugin install` command. ### Where does Claude Code store the installed PM Skills files? Claude Code downloads the skill files and command definitions from the `phuryn/pm-skills` repository into your local Claude Code environment. The specific storage location depends on your Claude Code installation, but the files are pulled from the plugin directories (e.g., `pm-toolkit/`, `pm-execution/`) as defined in the repository structure. ### What is the difference between adding a marketplace and installing a plugin? **Adding a marketplace** (`claude plugin marketplace add`) registers the source location so Claude Code knows where to find plugin definitions. **Installing a plugin** (`claude plugin install`) actually downloads the specific plugin's skills and commands into your local environment. You must add the marketplace once before you can install any of its plugins. ### Can I use PM Skills commands immediately after installing the plugins? Yes. Once the installation completes, the slash commands (like `/discover`, `/strategy`, and `/write-prd`) are immediately available in your Claude Code session. The commands work by chaining together the skills contained in the installed plugin directories, as implemented in the repository's command handlers.
