/plugin marketplace add kong/ai-marketplace
/plugin install ai-marketplace@kong-konnect
/reload-plugins
Claude Code uses the plugin manifest in
plugins/kong-konnect/.claude-plugin/plugin.json
and the marketplace catalog in
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json.
Install all skills:
npx skills add kong/ai-marketplace
Install only one skill:
npx skills add kong/ai-marketplace --skill gateway-plugin-datakit
That does not require KONNECT_TOKEN.
If you installed via gh skill, you can also update one installed skill with
gh skill update gateway-plugin-datakit.
Prefer Claude Code’s marketplace auto-update support over a custom shell hook.
In Claude Code:
- Run
/plugin.
- Open the
Marketplaces tab.
- Select the
ai-marketplace marketplace.
- Enable or disable auto-update there.
If plugins were updated during a session, run /reload-plugins.
Be careful with auto-update. It can pull newer skill instructions
automatically, which may introduce supply-chain or security risk if content
changes upstream without review.
If you want the MCP server without the full plugin wrapper, add
kong-konnect manually using
plugins/kong-konnect/mcp.json as the
reference shape. That is when KONNECT_TOKEN is required.
For local verification, install the plugin package from Kong AI Marketplace
under Cursor’s local plugin directory:
- Create
~/.cursor/plugins/local/kong-konnect/.
- Copy the contents of
plugins/kong-konnect/ into that path so Cursor sees
.cursor-plugin/plugin.json at the plugin root.
- Restart Cursor or run
Developer: Reload Window.
- Confirm
kong-konnect appears under installed plugins.
Use a real copied directory for local testing. A symlinked local plugin
directory does not load reliably, while a copied directory does.
Once Kong AI Marketplace is listed in a Cursor marketplace, the same package
shape can also be installed through Cursor’s plugin UI or /add-plugin. The
local path above remains the contributor smoke-test flow.
Cursor uses the plugin manifest in
plugins/kong-konnect/.cursor-plugin/plugin.json
and the marketplace catalog in
.cursor-plugin/marketplace.json.
Install all skills:
npx skills add kong/ai-marketplace
Install only one skill:
npx skills add kong/ai-marketplace --skill gateway-plugin-datakit
That does not require KONNECT_TOKEN.
If you installed via gh skill, you can also update one installed skill with
gh skill update gateway-plugin-datakit.
KONNECT_TOKEN is only required when Cursor loads or uses the
kong-konnect MCP server. If you only want the shared skills, use the
skill-only install path instead.
If you want the MCP server without the full plugin wrapper, use
plugins/kong-konnect/mcp.json as the
checked-in reference shape.
Kong AI Marketplace provides Kiro Powers for AWS.
- Browse powers at https://kiro.dev/powers.
- Select a power and click Install.
- Kiro IDE opens and lets you confirm installation.
- Open the Powers panel and choose Add power from GitHub.
- Enter the following repository URL:
https://github.com/kong/ai-marketplace
- Click Install.
- If a power includes MCP integrations, Kiro registers them in
~/.kiro/settings/mcp.json under the Powers section.

To install from GitHub:
gh skill install kong/ai-marketplace
Install one skill:
gh skill install kong/ai-marketplace gateway-plugin-datakit
For tools without a first-class plugin or extension wrapper in Kong AI Marketplace, use
the shared skills plus the MCP config.
npx skills and gh skill are both supported install paths for the shared
skills in Kong AI Marketplace.
Install all skills:
npx skills add kong/ai-marketplace
Install a single skill:
npx skills add kong/ai-marketplace --skill gateway-plugin-datakit
Update all globally installed skills:
Update one installed skill:
npx skills update -g -y gateway-plugin-datakit
--skill applies to npx skills add. The update command takes skill names
positionally.
gh skill is available in GitHub CLI v2.90.0+ and is currently in public
preview.
Preview a skill before installing it:
gh skill preview kong/ai-marketplace gateway-plugin-datakit
gh skill install kong/ai-marketplace
To install a single skill directly, use:
gh skill install kong/ai-marketplace gateway-plugin-datakit
If gh skill does not pick the right host automatically, pass --agent.
Pin an install to a reviewed tag or SHA when you need reproducibility:
gh skill install kong/ai-marketplace gateway-plugin-datakit --pin v1.0.0
Update all installed skills:
Update one installed skill:
gh skill update gateway-plugin-datakit
These skill-only installs do not require KONNECT_TOKEN.
To validate GitHub-side publishability without publishing:
gh skill publish --dry-run
Be careful with any automatic update path. It can pull newer skill
instructions without review, which may introduce supply-chain or security risk
if content changes upstream.
If you use auto-update, prefer updating one known skill first:
npx skills update -g -y gateway-plugin-datakit
Or with GitHub CLI:
gh skill update gateway-plugin-datakit
Claude Code has a native plugin update flow. See its install page for the
current recommended approach.
Use plugins/kong-konnect/mcp.json as
the checked-in reference shape for the kong-konnect MCP server.
KONNECT_TOKEN is only required if you add and use the MCP server.
