Microsoft Agent Plugins

Microsoft publishes 18 Agent Plugins conforming to the 1.0.0 specification, across 10 repositories — that is 0.3% of the 5,701 distinct plugins verified on 2026-11-07. Together they ship 79 skills and declare 0 MCP servers. Co-author of the Agent Plugins 1.0.0 specification, through Microsoft and GitHub.

Counted by fetching every plugin.json we can find on GitHub and checking it against the official schema at agent-plugins.org. A publisher may ship plugins in a client-proprietary format that this count excludes, because the specification requires the canonical $schema identifier and a manifest without it is not a conformant Agent Plugin.
