All Plugins Now 100% Free
Date: December 26, 2025 Version: 4.4.0
Summary
All 264 plugins in the Claude Code Plugins marketplace are now completely free to use. We've replaced every paid API dependency with free, self-hosted, or open-source alternatives.
What Changed
Previously, some plugins required paid API subscriptions:
- Financial data APIs (Alpha Vantage, paid tiers)
- Blockchain RPC endpoints (Alchemy, Infura paid tiers)
- Cloud AI services (OpenAI, paid tiers)
- Automation platforms (Zapier, Make paid tiers)
Now:
- Financial plugins use Yahoo Finance, SEC EDGAR (free)
- Crypto plugins use public RPCs (Ankr, dRPC, Chainstack free tiers)
- AI plugins support Ollama (local, free)
- Automation plugins support n8n (self-hosted, free)
No Breaking Changes
Existing workflows continue to work. The paid API options remain available for users who prefer them, but free alternatives are now the documented default.
