claude-personalities

This plugin has moved! The claude-personalities plugin is now available through a new marketplace. See nicksteffens/claude-marketplace for installation instructions.
Run /claude-personalities:update for guided migration steps. Your active personality and custom files are not affected.

Claude Personalities

Community-created character personalities for Claude Code. Swap Claude's tone, statusline quips, and spinner verbs with a single command.

Install

Inside any Claude Code session, run these two commands (one-time setup):

Step 1 — Add the marketplace (tells Claude Code where to find the plugin):

Step 2 — Install the plugin (format: plugin-name@marketplace-name):

Step 3 — Activate by running /reload-plugins (or restart Claude Code).

That's it. The plugin loads automatically on every future claude session — no flags needed.

To get updates after new personalities are added:
Note: The /update command was added in v1.8.0. If you're on an older version, you'll need to update manually first:
1. Run /plugin and select "update marketplace"
2. Run /reload-plugins
3. Restart Claude Code to pick up the new command
After that one-time manual update, /claude-personalities:update will work for all future updates.
