This file is the repository's operating inventory for where CodeRabbit skills and adjacent agent integrations are distributed. Public user-facing install guidance belongs in README.md; in-development and maintainer-only channels should stay here until they are ready to launch.
Channels
| Channel | Status | Source of truth | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Skills package (npx skills add coderabbitai/skills) | Live | README.md, skills/ | Canonical multi-agent distribution path for 35+ skills-compatible agents. |
| Tagged GitHub release archive for binary installers | In development, not user-facing | .github/workflows/release.yml | Workflow publishes a versioned tarball, SHA-256 file, and release manifest on v* tags, but this channel is not part of public install guidance yet. |
| Claude Code plugin marketplace | Live, source migration pending | .claude-plugin/plugin.json, commands/, agents/ | In-repo packaging is active; official marketplace source is being moved from coderabbitai/claude-plugin to this repository. |
| Cursor native plugin marketplace | Repo-packaged, publication should be verified | .cursor-plugin/plugin.json | Repo contains marketplace manifest; treat public listing as separate verification work. |
| Antigravity CLI native plugin | GitHub-installable | plugin.json, skills/ | Install directly with agy plugin install https://github.com/coderabbitai/skills; treat marketplace publication as separate verification work. |
| Codex plugin marketplace | Live, separate repo | CodeRabbit docs + coderabbitai/codex-plugin | Not packaged from this repository today. |
| VS Code / Cursor / Windsurf IDE extension | Live, separate distribution | CodeRabbit IDE extension docs | Complements skills; not a replacement for SKILL.md installs. |
| GitHub Marketplace app (PR reviews) | Live, separate product channel | CodeRabbit GitHub Marketplace listing | Product distribution, not a skills install path. |
Maintenance checklist
- When README install text changes, verify this table still matches the recommended paths.
- When the release workflow or asset names change, update the binary-installer row and its verification note.
- When a new marketplace manifest is added, record whether it is only packaged in-repo or publicly published.
- When the Antigravity manifest or plugin schema changes, rerun
agy plugin validate .. - If a channel moves to another repository, keep the status here and link the new owner repo in the note.
- If a channel is deprecated, keep it in this file until all docs and install references are removed.
