Bridges to outside services: editors, ticket trackers, CI, messaging. These extend what the runtime can reach rather than how it thinks. We track 14 repositories in this bucket, 2% of the 714 projects in the directory. Together they hold about 1.6k GitHub stars, though the median project sits near 85 — the headline number comes from a handful of very large repos, as usual in a young ecosystem.
By language the mix is TypeScript (8), JavaScript (4), Swift (1); by license it is MIT (9), Apache-2.0 (4). 14 of 14 have been pushed since August 2026, so the bucket is still moving. The three largest projects by stars are codex-bridge, dsh-fylar-office-editor, sbtd-plugins.
Verify the credential scope each bridge asks for; most only need read access. Sort by last update rather than stars for anything you plan to depend on, and open the README before installing: a plugin that is three months stale may still work, but you want to know that going in.
Browsing the whole set instead? The full plugin index lists all 714 repositories with stars, language and last-update date in one table. Adjacent categories worth a look: UI & Themes, Models & Routing, Desktop Apps, Agents & Teams. If you are still choosing a runtime, read the install guide first.
