buildkite is a plugin bundle for AI coding tools published by buildkite. Marketplaces we read that list it: 4 (Claude Code: claude-plugins-official, Claude: knowledge-work-plugins, Claude Code: claude-plugins-community, Community GitHub marketplaces). team is a plugin bundle for AI coding tools published by dstoic. Marketplaces we read that list it: 1 (Community GitHub marketplaces). As of our marketplace pass on 2026-10-19.

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.

Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
buildkite
Official Buildkite skills for Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI coding agents — pipelines, migration, preflight, agent runtime, CLI, and API
team
Coordination protocol for running a fleet of named Claude Code agents in parallel under one human: delegate one mandate at a time (brief), report back on a stop condition (report), hand off state at context limits (relay) — one skill per machine arrow, SendMessage the only transport. No skill reads the protocol at runtime: the mandate carries its own contract, so all three run in windows with no context to spare without reading anything at all, and a window that has never seen the plugin still behaves correctly. Context is under the human's control on both sides: read_first closes what a delegate opens before it starts, deliverable puts its findings on disk so reports and relay packets carry pointers rather than content, and a relay hands its successor the role lines that land it in READY instead of straight back into the work.
