# PatternFly AI Helpers
[](./LICENSE)
[](./CONTRIBUTING.md)
[](./PLUGINS.md)
AI coding helpers for [PatternFly](https://www.patternfly.org/) development. This repository provides plugins and documentation to help AI tools generate accurate, best-practice PatternFly applications.
Plugins work in both **Claude Code** and **Cursor**. The content is identical — only the install path differs.
## Quick Start
### Claude Code
```bash
# Add the marketplace
/plugin marketplace add patternfly/ai-helpers
# Install the plugins you need
/plugin install react@ai-helpers
```
After installation, the plugin's agents and skills are available in any project.
### Cursor
Cursor can discover plugins from `.cursor-plugin/` directories. If you also have Claude Code installed, Cursor may pick up installed plugins automatically via its third-party plugin settings.
## Available Plugins
| Plugin | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| **a11y** | Accessibility auditing, reporting, and documentation |
| **design-foundations** | Design foundation reference and auditing — tokens, icons, colors, spacing |
| **figma** | Figma design review, diffing, and asset identification |
| **issue-management** | Issue creation, tracking, and cross-project coordination |
| **react** | React component development — coding standards, testing, and structure |
| **repo-management** | Release versioning, dependency analysis, and repository health |
See [PLUGINS.md](PLUGINS.md) for skills, agents, and usage details.
## PatternFly MCP Server (Recommended)
For the best experience, also install the [PatternFly MCP server](https://github.com/patternfly/patternfly-mcp) which gives AI tools access to component documentation, prop schemas, and design guidelines. Skills and agents work without it but provide enhanced results when it's available.
## Architecture

A[AI Tool] -->|discovers| B[".-plugin/marketplace.json"]
B -->|references| C[plugins/react]

B -->|references| E[plugins/...]
C --- F[skills/ + agents/]
D --- G[skills/ + agents/]
E --- H[skills/ + agents/]
```
### How it works
1. Each AI tool looks for its own directory (`.claude-plugin/`, `.cursor-plugin/`) to find `marketplace.json`
2. The marketplace lists plugins with relative paths to `plugins//`
3. Each plugin has identical manifests in `.claude-plugin/plugin.json` and `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json`
4. Adding support for a new tool = copying the manifest into a new `.-plugin/` directory
