# Catalyst Plugin Offerings

This section details all the features that constitute the Catalyst AI Plugin.

### Components

The following table lists the components that make up the plugin:

<table border="1" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="0">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>Component Name</th>
      <th>Purpose</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>Dynamic MCP Server</td>
      <td>To provide AI models with the required context and access to perform actions in the Catalyst console. Being a Dynamic server it does not require tool context to be configured. It'll automatically load the required MCP Tool to execute your prompt.</td>

    <tr>
      <td>15 Product Skill Files</td>
      <td>Carefully crafted skill files to instruct the AI model on the implementation steps of various Catalyst components.</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>4 AI Architect Skill Files</td>
      <td>Skill files exclusively tailored to feed popular AI models like Claude.ai, Codex, CoPilot, and Cursor with context in the most optimized manner.</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

### Complete AI-Powered Ecosystem

An entire app building ecosystem, from creation, initialization, setup, coding to deploy, all powered by Catalyst working harmoniously with your LLM, made possible with the Catalyst AI Plugin.

When your LLM is connected to the Catalyst AI Plugin, the plugin's components provides your LLM with the necessary context to access and perform required operations in the Catalyst console.

You leverage the intelligence of your LLM feed it with necessary context using the Catalyst AI plugin, and you can build your entire application code and console actions all without ever leaving your LLM prompt space.
