Marketplace

The Marketplace is Ptah’s in-app hub for extending any workspace with new capabilities. It brings several catalogs together behind one screen: skill packs, the official MCP registry, community skills, and hosted MCP providers — each installable without leaving the app.

Marketplace overview

Opening the Marketplace

In the Ptah desktop app, click the Marketplace entry in the navigation rail. Pick a provider from the list and its catalog mounts on the right.

Providers

Provider	Adds	Status
Plugins	Bundled skill packs for orchestration, frontend & backend	Live
MCP Registry	Servers from the official Model Context Protocol registry	Live
Skills	Community skills you can discover and install	Live
Smithery	Hosted MCP servers with one-click setup	Live
Composio	Managed-auth MCP toolkits	Coming soon

Only the provider you select loads — unselected and coming-soon providers fire no network calls.

Plugins

Curated, multi-contribution packs (agents, skills, templates, slash commands). The Marketplace’s Plugins surface is the same catalog covered in depth under Plugins.

MCP Registry

Browse and install servers from the official MCP registry. See MCP Registry.

Skills

Discover and install community skills — scoped knowledge packs invoked on demand in chat. For how skills work once installed, see Skills.

Smithery

Hosted MCP servers with a guided, often one-click, setup. See Smithery.

Composio (coming soon)

Managed-auth MCP toolkits — connect SaaS tools without hand-managing tokens. Listed in the hub and will go live in a future release.

How installs take effect

After you install a skill or resolve an MCP server, Ptah refreshes its autocomplete caches so the new skill or server’s tools immediately show up in /command and @agent suggestions and in the installed lists. MCP tools become first-class citizens alongside ptah_* tools, subject to the same permission model.
