Key Takeaways
- Everything Cloud Code plugin enhances AI coding workflows with many pre-configured agents and skills.
- Installing the full plugin increases token usage but caching can significantly reduce ongoing costs.
- Subscription status affects cache TTL and influences whether to install the full plugin or cherry-pick components.
- The plugin supports multiple platforms and AI coding agents, making it versatile for developers.
- Understanding sub-agents and plugin configuration is key to mastering Cloud Code.
Summary
- Introduction to the Everything Cloud Code plugin, a popular tool with over 220K stars on GitHub.
- Overview of the plugin's repository containing skills, sub-agents, MCPs, hooks, and rules compatible with multiple AI coding agents.
- Detailed look at agents and skills available within the plugin, including examples like architect, code reviewer, and Android clean architecture skills.
- Step-by-step guide on how to install the Everything Cloud Code plugin and marketplace in Cloud Code.
- Explanation of plugin usage commands, including how to access the ECC guide and search for specific skills or agents.
- Analysis of token consumption before and after plugin installation, highlighting a 10K token increase.
- Discussion on Cloud Code's caching mechanism to reduce token usage by storing static context and the impact of TTL (time to live) on cache expiration.
- Advice on whether to install the entire plugin or cherry-pick files based on subscription status and modification needs.
- Mention of a special offer for joining a new SaaS builder community with free membership for early joiners.

Luckily, we have a plugin called Everything Cloud Code that has more than 220K stars in its GitHub repo. In this video, we'll see what this plugin has to offer and what is the best way to install it without hitting your usage limits.
Speaker A
So, let's dive into it. So, this is the repository of Everything Cloud Code. I'll put a link in the description. This repo contains a lot of skills, sub-agents, MCPs, hooks, and rules that you can use with multiple AI coding agents like Cloud Code, Codex, Open Code, Cursor, Gemini, and more.
Speaker A
Everything Cloud Code works with Windows, macOS, and Linux. So, you can use it on any device you have. I highly recommend taking a look in this repo and seeing which of the resources is relevant for you.
Speaker A
I wanted to show you agents and skills. So let's start with agents. Inside the agents folder, we have multiple MD files. Each one of them is configuring an agent. So let's see some examples. We have an architect here, code explorer, code reviewer, code simplifier, CPP reviewer, and much more. Almost any agent you have in mind.
Speaker A
We'll continue to the skills folder. Here you can see a skill about Android clean architecture, Angular developer, API design, backend patterns, and many more that are relevant for daily usage.
Speaker A
So, let's see how to install this plugin in Cloud Code and how to use it. By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. I help developers turn AI into real workflows. So, subscribe and like. It really helps me provide more value for you.
Speaker A
In order to install this plugin, we have these commands. It can be found in the GitHub repo. We're going to install the marketplace of this plugin. And after that, we are going to install this specific one. Let's execute the first command.
Speaker A
And now the marketplace was added. The name of the marketplace is ECC. Now we want to install the plugin.
Speaker A
After we install the plugin, we need to type /ECC. And now you can see all the functions that are available in this plugin. There is also a guide that tells you what is included in this plugin. The guide is called ECC guide.
Speaker A
So let's execute it. The ECC guide is a skill and you can drill down to the several options we mentioned. You can ask for the skills, agents, hooks. If you already have the command in mind, you can use the ECC to search for what you are looking for.
Speaker A
For example, marketing campaign. And now I can run this specific skill. But you are probably wondering if you should install the whole plugin or cherry-pick the specific files you need. Installing such a big plugin can consume a lot of tokens.
Speaker A
So to answer this question, I ran the context command before and after the installation. Before the installation, I had 26.6K and after that I had 36.6K.
Speaker A
It means that the plugin consumes about 10K tokens. If you're not familiar with this command, it gives you a full breakdown of your current context. At this point, you're probably thinking, I'm not going to add this plugin to Cloud Code. The limits of Cloud Code are already tough and I don't want to waste 10K tokens in every prompt. But it doesn't work that way. Before we see how it works, I have a special offer for you.
Speaker A
If you always wanted to build your own SaaS, we're working on a new builder community. The first five who join the waitlist will get free membership.
Speaker A
The link is in the description. So let's get back to the video. In Cloud Code, we have something called cache. With this mechanism, we're able to reduce the tokens we consume if we send the same context again and again. For example,
Speaker A
the plugin we've just installed. This plugin contains a lot of skills with descriptions and a lot of agents with descriptions. And this info is sent in every prompt we execute. The first time we send this static context, we're going
Speaker A
to do a cache write and we'll pay 25% more for this request. When we read from the cache, we're going to pay only 10% of the original costs. It means that the first time we're writing to the
Speaker A
cache, we'll pay 12.5K. And after that, every time we have a cache read, we're going to pay only 1,000 tokens, 10% of the tokens we use. So that means we always want to get a cache hit. This means that every time we send
Speaker A
a prompt, we'll get a cache read from the memory. But in order to do that, we need to understand something called TTL.
Speaker A
TTL is time to live. And this means that every cache we have has time expiration. If you use a subscription, the static context that is saved in cloud is about 1 hour. If you use Cloud API, the TTL is much smaller. We're
Speaker A
talking about 5 minutes only. That's great. Now we can answer the question, should you install the whole plugin or cherry-pick what you need? We need to ask ourselves, do we have a subscription? If the answer is no, because of the TTL we
Speaker A
just mentioned, you should go with the cherry pick. You don't want to waste too much money on this specific plugin. If the answer is yes and you have a subscription, we need to move on to the next question. Do you want to modify the
Speaker A
skills, the sub-agents, or the rest of the files? If the answer is yes, go with cherry-picking and make sure what you add is relevant and customized for you. If the answer is no, you can install the plugins and you won't have
Speaker A
any usage limits issues. Everything Cloud Code plugin is great. But if you want to master Cloud Code and get better results, you must understand the new changes to sub-agents. Luckily, I created this video for you. See you in the next
