Plugins are toolkits for Expert capabilities. Each plugin provides a set of tools that enable Experts to accomplish specific types of tasks — generating images, searching the web, processing documents, building websites, and more. Profy offers 20+ built-in plugins and supports community plugin extensions.

Automatic vs. Manual Activation

Built-in plugins fall into two categories:
Most built-in plugins are automatically enabled — as long as activation conditions are met (e.g., sandbox is running, search is enabled, etc.), the relevant tools become available automatically.You don’t need to do anything manually; the Expert will use these tools as needed.Automatically enabled plugins include: Creative Media, Web Search, Memory, Skill, Delegation, Schedule, Message, etc.

What Plugins Provide

Each plugin can offer one or more of the following capabilities:

Plugin Marketplace

In addition to built-in plugins, Profy has a Plugin Marketplace offering third-party plugins contributed by the community:
1

Browse and Install

Browse community plugins in the marketplace, check feature descriptions and user reviews. Once installed, they can be used in Expert conversations.
2

Installation Methods

Plugins support multiple installation methods — one-click install from the marketplace, import via URL, or sync from a code repository.
3

Sharing

You can share installed community plugins with other users (subject to platform configuration).
Community plugins use a declarative architecture — they extend capabilities through skills and MCP, without executing third-party code. This ensures security.

Creator Perspective: Managing Expert Plugins

If you’re an Expert creator, you can fine-tune which plugins your Expert uses in the Studio:

Enabling/Disabling Built-in Plugins

Each built-in plugin can be toggled independently. If your Expert is a pure text writing assistant, you might want to disable irrelevant plugins like Creative Media and Sites to keep the Expert focused.

Installing Third-Party Plugins

You can install third-party plugins from the marketplace for your Expert, giving it additional capabilities.
Disabling certain core plugins (such as Memory or Skill) may affect the Expert’s fundamental capabilities. It’s recommended to only disable plugins you’re sure aren’t needed.

MCP Integration

Experts support the MCP (Model Context Protocol) standard. This means:
  • Experts can connect to external MCP servers to obtain tools and data
  • Community plugins can expose remote tools via MCP
  • Developers can connect to Profy’s Expert capabilities through MCP in IDEs (such as Cursor, Codex)
Profy provides an official MCP server that supports the complete workflow of Expert distillation, configuration, publishing, and evolution within an IDE.
