Claude Code Plugin Install

The rotor.sh Claude Code plugin adds the /rotor:new-workflow slash command and agent rules to Claude Code, letting you scaffold GTM workflows without leaving your editor.

Quick Install (Marketplace)

/plugin marketplace add rotor-sh/claude-plugin
/plugin install rotor

That's it. Restart Claude Code and run /rotor:new-workflow outbound-with-approvals to scaffold your first workflow.


Manual Install (Fallback)

If the marketplace is unavailable or you prefer local control:

git clone https://github.com/rotor-sh/claude-plugin ~/.claude/plugins/rotor

Then in Claude Code:

/plugin install ~/.claude/plugins/rotor

Verify Installation

After installing, check the skill is available:

/rotor:new-workflow --help

Or ask Claude Code directly:

"What rotor templates are available?"

Claude should list the four starter templates.


Update the Plugin

To update to the latest version:

Marketplace install

/plugin update rotor

Manual install

cd ~/.claude/plugins/rotor && git pull
/plugin install ~/.claude/plugins/rotor

Troubleshooting

/rotor:new-workflow not recognized after install:

  1. Restart Claude Code completely (quit and reopen)
  2. Verify the skill file exists: ls ~/.claude/plugins/rotor/skills/new-workflow/SKILL.md
  3. Re-run /plugin install rotor

rotor template apply command not found:

The rotor CLI is separate from the Claude Code plugin. Install it globally:

npm install -g rotor-cli
rotor --version

Plugin install fails with "repository not found":

Use the manual install method above. If rotor-sh/claude-plugin is not yet on GitHub, clone from the main repo:

git clone https://github.com/shyftai/rotor ~/.claude/plugins/rotor-src
cp -r ~/.claude/plugins/rotor-src/packages/rotor-plugin ~/.claude/plugins/rotor
/plugin install ~/.claude/plugins/rotor
