- [Testing](https://agentpluginsdirectory.com/categories/testing): 35 plugins. Plugins whose purpose is tests: generating unit, integration, or end-to-end tests, running test suites, coverage analysis, test-driven workflows, and browser or UI test automation.
- [DevOps & Cloud](https://agentpluginsdirectory.com/categories/devops-cloud): 136 plugins. Plugins for shipping and running software: CI/CD pipelines, containers and Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, deployment and release management, cloud provider operations, monitoring and incident response.

- [Design & Frontend](https://agentpluginsdirectory.com/categories/design-frontend): 93 plugins. Plugins for what users see: UI and UX design, design systems and tokens, CSS and styling, frontend frameworks and components, accessibility, animation, and design-to-code workflows.
- [Creative & Media](https://agentpluginsdirectory.com/categories/creative-media): 64 plugins. Plugins that produce visual or audio work: game engines and game development, 3D modelling and animation, video generation and editing, audio and music production, and image creation.
- [Productivity & Workflow](https://agentpluginsdirectory.com/categories/productivity): 194 plugins. Plugins that organise work rather than produce software: planning and task breakdown, project and issue management, note-taking and knowledge bases, meetings, scheduling, and personal workflow automation.
- [Research & Search](https://agentpluginsdirectory.com/categories/research): 132 plugins. Plugins that go and find things: web search and browsing, scraping and data collection, retrieval over document sets, competitive and market research, fact-checking and source verification.
- [Integrations & APIs](https://agentpluginsdirectory.com/categories/integrations): 307 plugins. Plugins that connect an agent to a specific third-party product or protocol: GitHub and issue trackers, chat and email, calendars and CRMs, payments, storage, and general API clients.
- [Other](https://agentpluginsdirectory.com/categories/other): 1072 plugins. Plugins whose purpose does not fit any category above, and plugins whose manifest describes too little to classify honestly.
