What problem does it solve?
Your agent keeps reinventing shell one-liners because your personal SAM aliases and MCP bridge are not part of its skill set.
Who is it for?
Terminal-first solo devs standardizing commands with SAM and exposing them to Claude Code through MCP.
Skip if: No-terminal builders or teams that need cloud-only integrations without local shell alias tooling.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After registration, Claude Code can follow SAM-focused skills to invoke and create aliases through sam-mcp with consistent shell workflows.
- Enabled sam plugin skills in Claude Code
- Documented agent patterns for running and authoring SAM aliases via MCP

Recommended Marketplaces
Journey fit
Builders wire agent tooling and local dev ergonomics while implementing workflows; SAM ties shell commands to repeatable agent actions. Agent-tooling is the canonical shelf because the marketplace ships skills for SAM alias usage and authoring via sam-mcp, not application UI or backend APIs.
How it compares
SAM alias skills plus sam-mcp pairing, not a standalone deployment marketplace or generic productivity plugin.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Sam for?
Claude Code users who manage shell aliases with SAM and want documented agent skills wired to Sam-mcp.
When should I use Sam?
Use it while building agent-tooling when you want the coding agent to run and extend your SAM alias library instead of raw shell guesswork.
How do I add Sam to my agent?
Add the r-zenine/Sam marketplace in Claude Code, enable the Sam plugin from ./agent-skills, and configure the Sam-mcp MCP server per SAM documentation.
