+**Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app.** Codex doesn't install plugin dependencies, so `use-family` there brings in the routing skill alone and every `*-use` has to be added by name. To add the whole family:
 
 ```sh
 codex plugin marketplace add leeguooooo/plugins
-codex plugin add use-family@leeguooooo-plugins
-codex plugin add chrome-use@leeguooooo-plugins   # and mail-use, memory-use, …

 ```
 
+The list is `use-family`'s `dependencies` in [plugins/use-family/.claude-plugin/plugin.json](plugins/use-family/.claude-plugin/plugin.json); drop the ones you don't want. This installs the plugins (skills) only. The CLIs still install themselves on first use or with the one-line installers below, and a few uses need a one-time setup of their own (for example `memory-use init`, adding a mailbox to `mail-use`).

 The marketplace also shows up in the ChatGPT desktop app's Plugins Directory. `codex plugin marketplace upgrade leeguooooo-plugins` refreshes it.

+## Retired

+**curl-crypto-plugin** is no longer offered here: it needs a private runtime that the plugin doesn't ship, so a fresh install can't run. The source stays at [leeguooooo/curl-crypto-plugin](https://github.com/leeguooooo/curl-crypto-plugin). To remove an existing install: `/plugin uninstall curl-crypto-plugin@leeguooooo-plugins`.
