Anthropic's official operations plugin adds six commands: /vendor-review, /process-doc, /change-request, /capacity-plan, /status-report and /runbook. Behind them sit skills for vendor management, process improvement, change management, risk, compliance tracking and resource planning.
The most useful for a small business is /process-doc. Talk Claude through how something gets done and it writes a proper SOP (a standard operating procedure: the step-by-step guide someone else can follow), with a flowchart and who's responsible for each step. /vendor-review weighs up a supplier's cost, risk and contract before renewal time.
It's written with larger ops teams in mind, so some parts, like approval chains and capacity models, will be more than a small business needs.
Install in Claude Code
In Claude Cowork, open the plugin directory on claude.com and add Operations. In Claude Code run /plugin marketplace add anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins, then /plugin install operations@knowledge-work-plugins. Connect your project tracker (Asana, Jira or monday.com), Notion or Confluence, Slack and email when it asks; without them it still works, you just paste the context in yourself.
