Install automating-mac-apps for Codex and Claude Code

Installs for the current user
claude plugin marketplace add IchenDEV/agent-plugin-mkt
claude plugin marketplace update agent-plugin-marketplace
claude plugin install automating-mac-apps-2@agent-plugin-marketplace

Paste and run these commands in a terminal with Claude Code. They add and refresh the PluginsMP catalog, then install this plugin.

Compatibility: the page URL and API slug “automating-mac-apps-2” remain stable.

  • Codex: Legacy selector automating-mac-apps-2@agent-plugin-marketplace remains documented for migration; install from source for this runtime.

Codex has another source with the same manifest name. This directory does not invent numbered install aliases; use the publisher's catalog or inspect the source manually for that runtime.
