Each figure is the marketplace's own and is never added up across marketplaces. A marketplace that publishes no figure shows none: no number is not zero.

Its card, with similar plugins by marketplace

What each says it does

Plugin Forge

In its own words, on Community GitHub marketplaces:

Eval-first plugin builder: primitive decision records, generated eval suites with arming gates, sha256-frozen contracts, goal-loop builds in isolated worktrees, verified ships. The suite is the contract; green is the definition of done.

ExecBro

In its own words, on Official MCP Registry:

Gives AI agents eyes and hands into running React Native apps: logs, REPL, tap, screenshots

How to run each

Plugin Forge

No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.

ExecBro As a local MCP server: npm package

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport stdio execbro -- npx -y execbro

Commands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.

Tools each declares

Neither one's marketplaces publish a list of tools, so there is nothing to compare.

Settings each asks for

The marketplaces of Plugin Forge publish no settings it asks for, so we do not compare settings.
