# Plugin inventory
This page is generated from \`extensions/*/package.json\`, \`openclaw.plugin.json\`,
and the root npm package \`files\` exclusions. Regenerate it with:
\`\`\`bash
pnpm plugins:inventory:gen
\`\`\`
## Definitions
- **Core npm package:** built into the \`openclaw\` npm package and available without a separate plugin install.
- **Official external package:** OpenClaw-maintained plugin omitted from the core npm package, kept in this official inventory, and installed on demand through ClawHub and/or npm.
- **Source checkout only:** repo-local plugin omitted from published npm artifacts and not advertised as an installable package.
Source checkouts are different from npm installs: after \`pnpm install\`, bundled
plugins load from \`extensions/\` so local edits and package-local workspace
dependencies are available.
## Install a plugin
Use the **Distribution** column to decide whether install is needed. Plugins that
say \`included in OpenClaw\` are already present in the core package. Official
external packages need one install, then a Gateway restart.
For example, Discord is an official external package:
\`\`\`bash
openclaw plugins install @openclaw/discord
openclaw gateway restart
openclaw plugins inspect discord --runtime --json
\`\`\`
Bare package specs try ClawHub first, then npm fallback. To force a source, use
\`clawhub:@openclaw/discord\` or \`npm:@openclaw/discord\`. After install, follow
the plugin's setup doc, such as [Discord](/channels/discord), to add credentials
and channel config. See [Manage plugins](/plugins/manage-plugins) for update,
uninstall, and publishing commands.
## Core npm package
${renderTable(groups.core)}
## Official external packages

## Source checkout only
