# Metaphor Marketplace

> Plugins, skills and agents for Metaphor (https://metaphor.sh), a native desktop coding agent. Install a plugin by asking the agent, for example "install the web-audit plugin". Skills run as slash commands; agents are specialists the main agent hands work to.

**What is the Metaphor Marketplace?** A catalog of plugins, skills and agents for Metaphor, the native desktop coding agent. Each one teaches the agent a new kind of work, from SEO audits to security reviews.

**What is the difference between a plugin, a skill and an agent?** A skill is written know-how the agent reads before a task. A plugin bundles skills and tool servers you install in one step. An agent is a specialist with its own instructions and tools that the main agent can hand work to.

**How do I install a plugin?** Ask the agent in plain words, for example "install the web-audit plugin". There is nothing to download by hand.

**Are plugins safe to install?** Every plugin in the catalog is signed. Metaphor checks the signature and checksum before installing, shows the permissions a plugin needs, and asks before anything runs.
