What's new here? It looks good - accessing connectors using Claude but not sure whether there's something fundamentally novel

I think it's essentially this plugin? https://github.com/anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins/tree/ma...

  • Looks useful, so they are new plugins. But what are plugins vs skills vs connectors?

    • A plugin is just a bundle of MCPs, skills and templated prompts.

      A skill cannot provide MCPs and can't provide custom template prompts, each skill is it's own slash command.

      A plugin you can define N number of custom slash commands, and you can define MCPs as well as skills. So it bundles like all the things together.

      By installing a plugin, you are basically installing a bunch of MCPs, skills and custom slash command prompts.
