Introduction

Agentville is a free add-on, called a plugin, for Claude. Once it is on, Claude stops answering a big request in one go. It works more like a small team: it talks the job through with you, makes a short plan, does the work, has someone else check it and then tells you plainly what happened.

You do not need to be technical to use it. You add it once, paste two lines into your Claude settings, and then you talk to Claude as you always do.

What it does

When you ask for something, Agentville first decides how much care the request needs.

• A quick question gets a quick answer, with no extra steps.
• A small, clear task goes straight to the work.
• A large or unclear task starts with a short conversation, so Claude understands what you want before it builds anything.

Behind the scenes, Claude hands each piece of work to a helper with one job: one helper does the work, another checks it, another reviews it. You see the result, the evidence and anything still open, in plain words.

How it works shows the steps in a picture.

The ideas behind it

Agentville is built on a few simple ideas.

• Plan before doing. A large job done without a plan often builds the wrong thing. A small job buried in a big plan wastes your time. Agentville picks the right amount of process for each request.
• Check, do not trust. The helper that did the work never marks its own homework. A separate helper checks the result and keeps the evidence.
• You make the choices. When something needs a human decision, such as what is in scope or which option to pick, Agentville asks you early or lists it for you at the end. It does not guess.
• Nothing risky without your say-so. Agentville will not publish, send, delete or pay for anything unless you asked for that exact thing in your own words.
• Plain reports. Every request ends with what was done, what was checked and what is left for you.

Where it works

Agentville works in Claude Chat and Cowork, and in Claude Code for technical users. This site is written mainly for Chat and Cowork. If you use Claude Code, see For technical users.
