Tla Plus Marketplace

Install when you need Claude Code to draft TLA+ specs and TLC model-check configs before you ship concurrency-sensitive backend or distributed flows.

Overview

tla-plus-marketplace is a plugin marketplace for the Ship phase that packages a TLA+ formal-verification plugin for generating specifications and TLC model-check configurations.

What is this marketplace?

  • Single-plugin marketplace bundling TLA+ and PlusCal-oriented formal verification for agents
  • Generates TLA+ specifications aligned to distributed systems and state-machine problems
  • Produces TLC model-checker configurations for bounded exploration of concurrent designs
  • Tagged for formal verification, model checking, PlusCal, and distributed-systems workflows
  • Version 1.0.0 plugin aimed at specification-first correctness before implementation hardens
  • Marketplace lists 1 plugin (tla-plus) at version 1.0.0
  • Plugin category: formal-verification with eight discovery tags including tla+ and tlc

What problem does it solve?

Concurrent and distributed features fail in production in ways unit tests and casual code review rarely catch.

Who is it for?

Backend-heavy solo builders designing locks, retries, workflows, or multi-service interactions who already tolerate formal-methods overhead.

Skip if: Teams that only need linting and shallow integration tests on CRUD apps with no shared mutable state or cross-service ordering guarantees.

What do I get? / Deliverables

After you add the marketplace, Claude Code can produce checkable TLA+ specs and TLC setups so you validate designs before committing to brittle implementations.

  • Draft TLA+ specifications suitable for refinement and review
  • TLC-oriented model configurations for bounded state exploration
  • Tagged verification workflow scoped to distributed-systems problems

Journey fit

Primary fit

Formal model checking is the canonical safety gate before production—placed on the Ship shelf under testing even though specs are written earlier in Build. TLC model checking and invariant proofs map directly to pre-release verification and regression of concurrent behavior, not day-one UI work.

How it compares

Formal-verification plugin marketplace, not a generic coding skill or MCP database connector.

Common Questions / FAQ

Who is Tla Plus Marketplace for?

It is for Claude Code users building distributed systems, concurrent algorithms, or state machines who want agent-assisted TLA+ specs and TLC configurations.

When should I use Tla Plus Marketplace?

Use it during design and pre-ship verification when correctness under concurrency matters more than speed of scaffolding.

How do I add Tla Plus Marketplace to my agent?

Register the andrueandersoncs/claude-tla-plus-plugin marketplace in Claude Code, install the tla-plus plugin bundle, then invoke it when drafting or checking specifications.
