Anthropic launched a new developer portal on September 25, 2026, to streamline the submission of tools to the Claude Marketplace. The platform is available to users on Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans, providing a structured process for listing plugins and connectors.
Developers can submit tools via two methods: a single remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector or a full plugin bundle hosted on GitHub. The submission process includes automated validation, safety scans, and a tracking system for review status.
Once approved, developers gain access to usage analytics for their tools. The infrastructure supports the Claude Marketplace, which debuted on September 23, 2026, and already features over 2,000 integrations, including connections to Google Drive and Atlassian products.
The Model Context Protocol serves as the open standard for these integrations, allowing AI applications to connect to external data sources securely. This new portal replaces a previously manual submission process, aiming to improve efficiency and scalability for quality control.
