What's Still Paid (By Design)

Only 1 acceptable paid dependency:

  • Anthropic Claude API - Required by Claude Code itself
    • This is the platform you're using, so it's an acceptable cost
    • All OTHER paid services have been eliminated

Result: All 259 Claude Code plugins in this marketplace can now be used completely free - no paid API subscriptions required (except Claude Code itself).
