Anthropic Launches Submission Portal for Claude Marketplace Plugins
Anthropic has launched a submission portal for its Claude Marketplace, allowing developers to easily integrate plugins and connectors into the platform. This new feature, which went live on September 25, 2026, provides a structured and trackable method for builders on Claude's paid plans to submit their tools.
The portal offers two submission paths: a single remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector for specific tools or data sources, and a full plugin bundle hosted on GitHub for more comprehensive integrations. Both submission types undergo automated validation, safety scans, and status tracking, ensuring a streamlined process for developers.
The Claude Marketplace, which was announced just two days earlier on September 23, 2026, already features over 2,000 tools, including connections to popular platforms like Google Drive and Atlassian products. The introduction of the submission portal aims to replace the previously manual submission process, providing developers with better visibility and faster turnaround times.
For developers looking to integrate their tools into Claude, this portal offers a cleaner path to reach users. The GitHub-hosted bundle option is particularly beneficial, as many teams already manage their code on that platform. However, developers should carefully review the safety scan requirements before submitting, as the automated process may flag edge cases.
