How it works
Buying the Claude Code Skills gets you access to a private GitHub repository, the plugin marketplace itself, but the way that access reaches you surprises people. Here is the whole process, written down before you pay rather than after.
Checkout never asks for your GitHub account
You do not enter a username anywhere during payment. GitHub is connected afterwards, by you, from your order.
Access is not sent automatically
Nothing lands in your inbox with the repository attached. You grant access to yourself, and it takes about a minute.
Your email address is the only key
It is how you get into the customer portal, and the portal is the only place access can be granted. A typo locks you out of it.
The four steps
From paying to installing. Steps two and three are the ones people do not expect.
-
1
Pay
Checkout is handled by Polar, who are the seller of record. Card details never touch our systems. Choose how many seats you need before paying, and enter an email address you can actually read.
-
2
Open the customer portal
Go to the Polar customer portal and sign in with the email you bought with. There is no password: Polar emails a one-time code to that address. Then open your order.
-
3
Connect GitHub and grant access
From the order, connect your GitHub account and grant it repository access. If you bought several seats, you assign the rest to your colleagues from the same screen.
-
4
Accept the invitation and install
GitHub emails an invitation to each person, and it has to be accepted. Claude Code installs the marketplace over git, so once the invitation is accepted, /plugin marketplace add flow-php-depot/claude-skills just works.
The portal lives at polar.sh/flow-php/portal. You will not need it until after you have paid.
Buying for a team
One seat covers one developer. If four people will use the skills, that is four seats, and you choose the quantity at checkout before paying rather than buying four times.
Whoever pays does not have to be one of the developers. A team lead, an office manager or finance can buy the seats and hand them out afterwards. The person who paid owns the order, signs in to the portal, and assigns each seat to a colleague's GitHub account.
Every person still accepts their own GitHub invitation. Sharing one account between several developers is not a way around buying seats, and it is not allowed by the licence.
Payment, tax and invoices
Polar acts as Merchant of Record, which means they are the seller for the transaction. They handle the payment, the tax and the invoice, and the invoice comes from them.
Prices on the site exclude tax and are shown in US dollars. Your currency and the final amount are worked out at checkout based on where you are, so what you pay may be shown in a different currency than what you browsed.
Buying from an EU business? Enter your VAT ID at checkout and the reverse charge applies, so no VAT is added.
It is a one-time payment. There is no subscription and nothing renews.
Worth knowing before you pay
What you can do with the skills
Use them in every repository you work on, personal or commercial, and adapt them to your projects through their extension files. What you cannot do is republish them, resell them, or pass them to someone who has not bought a seat.
It is a process, not a prompt pack
The skills are gated steps with persisted artifacts and verification that must come back clean. They slow Claude down on purpose where being fast produces slop. That is the offer, not a defect.
Updates
You keep access to the marketplace repository as it evolves. Claude Code installs plugins over git, so updates arrive through the marketplace and there is nothing extra to pay for them.
What you need
A GitHub account, an email address you can read, and Claude Code itself. The plugins add no API costs of their own; the multi-agent modes spend more of your existing Claude usage, and every skill offers the cheaper single-agent mode.
If something goes wrong
Mistyped your email, invitation never arrived, or the portal is not showing your order? Email support@flow-php.com and we will sort it out with Polar.
That is the whole process
No surprises left. If anything above is still unclear, ask before you pay rather than after.
