Zilliz

Zilliz Cloud Plugin for Claude Code & OpenAI Codex

Your Zilliz Cloud console in your AI coding agent. This plugin lets Claude Code or OpenAI Codex operate the zilliz-cli, bringing the full power of Zilliz Cloud — cluster management, collection operations, vector search, RBAC, backups, and more — into your terminal through natural language.

It ships as a dual-format plugin living in plugins/zilliz/: .claude-plugin/plugin.json for Claude Code and .codex-plugin/plugin.json for Codex, sharing one real skills/ directory — no symlinks, no duplication. Both root .claude-plugin/marketplace.json and .agents/plugins/marketplace.json point their plugin source at ./plugins/zilliz.

What It Does

Instead of memorizing CLI commands or switching to the web console, just describe what you want:

• "Create a serverless cluster in us-east-1 and set up a collection with 768-dimension vectors"
• "Search for similar items in my product collection with filter age > 20"
• "Show me the status of all my clusters and collections"
• "Set up a daily backup policy for my production cluster with 7-day retention"
• "Create a role with read-only access to the analytics collection"
• "Import data from S3 into my embeddings collection"
• "Check the status of my import job"
• "Show me this month's usage and invoices"
• "Spin up a Vector Lake in us-east-1 and create an on-demand cluster with a 30-minute idle TTL"
• "Refresh my external collection from Vector Lake and tell me when the job finishes"

Installation

From Claude Code Marketplace

Search for zilliz in the plugin directory, or add the marketplace manually:

/plugin marketplace add zilliztech/zilliz-plugin

zilliztech/zilliz-plugin is the GitHub repo. Once added, the marketplace is named zilliztech (from marketplace.json) and the plugin is named zilliz. Then install via the Discover tab in /plugin.

Direct Install

/plugin install zilliz@zilliztech

The format is <plugin>@<marketplace> — zilliz@zilliztech, not zilliz@zilliztech/zilliz-plugin (that repo path is not the marketplace name).

Upgrading

/plugin marketplace add does not refresh an already-added marketplace, and /plugin install is a no-op if the plugin is already installed. To pull a new version:
