What is it?

One plugin with more than 40 workflows for the jobs a small business owner does every week: cash flow, chasing invoices, paying bills, month-end, finding and following up leads, proposals, marketing, reviews, inventory, hiring and a Monday morning brief.

You don't need to learn commands. Say what's on your mind, like "a customer is upset" or "can I make payroll?", and it picks the right workflow. Say "get me started" first and a 15-minute setup connects your first tools, learns about your business and picks up your brand colours for reports.

Every step that touches money or customers waits for your yes, and it won't guess a number it can't read. Some tax and payroll steps lean American (1099 forms, for example), and it isn't financial, tax or legal advice.

Install in Claude Code

In Claude Cowork, open the plugin directory on claude.com and add Small Business. In Claude Code run /plugin marketplace add anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins, then /plugin install small-business@knowledge-work-plugins. Connect your accounting software, CRM, email and calendar when it asks; without them it still works, you just paste the context in yourself.
