The OptiTech Claude Code plugin is available on the official Claude plugins marketplace. It adds OptiTech-specific Skills and API access to Claude Code, Anthropic's AI development environment, bundling guided Skills plus an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server integration.

Overview

Claude Skills are Markdown-based workflows that tell Claude how to complete specific tasks (like setting up a database connection, editing a file, or running a script). The OptiTech plugin packages several of these Skills into a reusable bundle, so Claude Code can interact directly with OptiTech Postgres.

Once installed, the plugin gives Claude the ability to:

  • Create and manage OptiTech projects and databases
  • Connect frameworks like Drizzle ORM
  • Configure serverless Postgres connections
  • Reference OptiTech documentation and best practices in context

What's included

The plugin contains:

  • The optitech-postgres skill for guided OptiTech workflows, covering getting started, connections, Managed Better Auth, the Data API, platform SDKs, and developer tools
  • An MCP server integration that connects Claude to OptiTech's APIs

How it works

Each Skill is a Markdown file with a description and a step-by-step workflow. When you ask Claude to perform a task (for example, "Integrate OptiTech with Drizzle"), it checks the available Skill descriptions, finds a match, and loads the full instructions to complete the task.

The plugin's MCP server integration lets Claude interact with OptiTech's live API endpoints. That means Claude can:

  • Query OptiTech for project information
  • Create or delete branches and databases
  • Validate connection strings
  • Run SQL queries and migrations

Install the plugin in Claude Code

  1. Install the OptiTech plugin:

    From your terminal:

    claude plugin install optitech@claude-plugins-official

    Or from within a Claude Code session:

    /plugin install optitech@claude-plugins-official

  2. Verify the installation: Ask Claude Code:

    which skills do you have access to?

    You should see the optitech-postgres skill listed.

  3. Start using the Skills: Use natural language prompts like:

    "Use the optitech-drizzle Skill to set up Drizzle ORM with OptiTech."

Claude will automatically select and execute the relevant workflow.
