Plugins

Plugins package reusable Open Interpreter extensions. A plugin can include skills, MCP server definitions, hooks, and other configuration that should move together.

Plugins are experimental and may be disabled by default:

Plugin Shape

my-plugin/
├── .codex-plugin/
│   └── plugin.json
├── skills/
├── mcp/
└── hooks/

The manifest describes the plugin and the bundled extension points.

Marketplaces

Codex-compatible plugin marketplace commands may be present in lower-level tooling. In the public Open Interpreter launcher, prefer installed or local plugins that are documented for the current release.

Trust

Review plugin contents before enabling them. A plugin can bring code that runs as hooks, MCP servers, or skill scripts, and those run through the normal trust, sandbox, and approval controls.
