Gedcomx
Install the GEDCOM X marketplace plugin when you are building or maintaining apps that import, export, or transform genealogical records using an open exchange model.
Overview
gedcomx is a plugin marketplace for the Build phase that packages GEDCOM X genealogical data-model and serialization tooling for Claude Code workflows.
What is this marketplace?
- Open data model and serialization format for genealogical exchange aligned with the GEDCOM X research-process wiki
- Single-plugin Claude marketplace entry backed by FamilySearch’s gedcomx ecosystem
- Community and specification docs at gedcomx.org for model compliance
- Suited to parsers, converters, and API bridges—not a general-purpose agent skill pack
- Standard-focused catalog entry, not a bundled multi-skill productivity marketplace
- Marketplace lists 1 plugin
- Backed by FamilySearch gedcomx open specification and community wiki
Community signal: 385 GitHub stars.
What problem does it solve?
Genealogy apps stall when every vendor uses a different record shape and you lack a credible open standard to parse, validate, and exchange family-tree data.
Who is it for?
Indie developers building genealogy SaaS, import/export utilities, or archival pipelines who already use Claude Code and need a standards-based hook.
Skip if: Builders with no genealogy domain, teams wanting a large multi-skill AI pack, or products that only need generic JSON CRUD without GEDCOM semantics.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After you add the marketplace and install the plugin, your agent sessions can target GEDCOM X–aligned exchange work with a clear FamilySearch-backed integration anchor.
- Registered gedcomx marketplace source in Claude Code

Journey fit
Genealogy products need a stable serialization layer before UI and workflows ship, so the canonical shelf is Build where format adapters and exchange APIs are implemented. GEDCOM X is an integration standard for moving genealogical entities between tools, which maps directly to the integrations subphase rather than greenfield ideation.
How it compares
Curated standards-integration marketplace, not a general AI Agents skill bundle or an MCP server catalog.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Gedcomx for?
Gedcomx is for solo builders and small teams creating genealogy software who need GEDCOM X as an open interchange format inside Claude Code–assisted development.
When should I use Gedcomx?
Use Gedcomx during Build when you are implementing import/export, migration tools, or APIs that must speak GEDCOM X rather than ad hoc family-tree JSON.
How do I add Gedcomx to my agent?
Register the FamilySearch Gedcomx marketplace in Claude Code, then install the listed plugin from that marketplace using the standard `claude plugin marketplace add` and `claude plugin install` commands.
