One-click editor setup isn’t available for this listing yet — we don’t have a confirmed install command, and we’d rather show nothing than point your editor at the wrong package or host. Follow the project’s own setup instructions, linked above.
Manual Client & Custom JSON ConfigExpand JSON ▾
No confirmed setup config for this listing yet. We only publish a config block when the install details come from the project itself — its README, its docs, or a verified owner. We haven’t found those for promptlike-mcp, and we’d rather show nothing than a guess you’d paste into your client. Follow the project’s own setup instructions for the current steps.
Documentation Overview
promptlike — Claude Code plugin
Reach your PromptLikeEngineer prompt library from inside Claude Code. Your prompts stay versioned where you saved them; Claude pulls one by name at the moment it needs it — no copy-paste, no stale duplicates in a system prompt.
Install
From the community marketplace (once this plugin is listed there):
Then install promptlike from @claude-community.
Or straight from this repo — works today, and useful for trying it before the marketplace listing lands:
Sign in once so the server can read your library (it shares the CLI session):
Without signing in the plugin still loads and its tools are listed — each call
just answers "Not logged in. Run ple login first." instead of returning prompts.
The suggestion hook then uses your local prompts (ple save).
What it adds
| Component | What it is |
|---|---|
promptlike MCP server | Tools: list_prompts, search_prompts, get_prompt, fill_variables, suggest_prompts (read) · save_prompt, update_prompt (write — add only) |
| Your prompts as slash commands | Every saved prompt appears in the / menu as /mcp__promptlike__<prompt-name>; its {{variables}} become arguments. /mcp__promptlike__save-this saves the reusable prompt from the current conversation |
Your prompts as @ resources | promptlike://<repo>/<prompt> — attach a saved prompt with @ |
| Suggestion hook | Before each message, a local match against your saved prompts; when one fits, Claude gets a one-line note (see below) |
/promptlike:prompt-library skill | Teaches Claude to reach for a saved prompt instead of writing one from scratch, and to save good ones back |
Needs promptlike-mcp 0.4+ (the plugin pins @0.4).
Saving from Claude Code
Ask Claude to save a prompt, or run /mcp__promptlike__save-this. Writes are add-only:
save_prompt creates a prompt, update_prompt adds a new version and keeps the old one.
Nothing is ever deleted, and saving the same thing twice changes nothing. Plan limits apply
exactly as on the web — when you hit one, Claude tells you and nothing is saved. Content
that looks like an API key or token is refused.
Suggestion hook — what it does and how to turn it off
On every message you send, the plugin runs ple suggest --hook (a Claude Code
UserPromptSubmit hook). It:
- matches your message against your saved prompts on this machine — a cached copy of
your library (or
~/.promptlikewhen signed out). Your message is not sent anywhere; - stays silent for slash commands, short messages (under 20 characters), weak matches, and prompts it already suggested in this session;
- otherwise adds one short note for Claude naming up to three prompts. Claude fetches one only if it is clearly relevant;
- needs the CLI (
npm i -g promptlike); without it the hook does nothing. It never blocks your message: it answers in well under a second or stays silent.
Turn it off any of these ways:
/config→ PromptLikeEngineer → Suggest saved prompts → falseple config set suggest offPLE_SUGGEST=offin your environment (or in Claude Code'ssettings.json→env)
How often a suggestion is shown is counted on your machine only (ple stats shows it);
the server only learns when Claude actually fetches a suggested prompt.
