# Plugins reference

> Reference for plugins in Delegate and Cartographer — repository sources, available plugins, and how plugins relate to skills, MCP servers, credentials, and work profiles.

A plugin is a bundle that adds skills, MCP servers, and other capabilities in one step, rather than you installing each piece individually. Plugins are managed from **Add-ons & Integrations** → **Plugins**. For how to add and manage one, see [Extending functionality with plugins](extending-functionality-with-plugins.md).

## Repository sources

Plugins can come from more than one source. Switch between them with the source selector:

| Source | What it is | Self-service? |
|---|---|---|
| **Orchestrator** | Your tenant's library feed | Always available |
| **A repository you add** | For example, a GitHub-hosted skills repository | Yes — use **Add repository** |
| **A shared feed** | A feed shared across several organizations, configured outside Orchestrator | No — set up separately by UiPath at deploy time. Not available by default, and not present in production today. |

## Available plugins

| Plugin | What it does |
|---|---|
| **uipath** | UiPath's plugin for Claude Code — bundles custom skills, agents, hooks, and MCP servers for UiPath workflows, UI automation, and UI testing. |

## How plugins relate to other concepts

| Concept | Relationship to plugins |
|---|---|
| **Skills** | One of the things a plugin can bundle. |
| **MCP servers** | A plugin can bring these along in the same bundle, alongside skills — not every plugin is skills-only. |
| **Credential definitions** | Creating a plugin lets you attach optional credential definitions in the same bundle. |
| **Work profiles** | An enabled work profile can bring its associated plugin along automatically. |
