Install in BB

Open Extensions in BB, search Needs You, and install the listing by Pritam Sharma in BB Community.

Or run this on the machine running BB:

bb plugin install inbox@bb-community

No extra marketplace needed. If the listing is missing, refresh BB Community with bb marketplace refresh bb-community.

Add my marketplace too Optional

Keep my collection in your BB catalog as I publish more extensions. Plugins already listed in BB Community don’t need it, so adding this marketplace is optional.

bb marketplace add git:github.com/notpritam/bb-marketplace@main

Adding a marketplace installs nothing. Choose which plugins to install and refresh the catalog to discover new listings.

View my marketplace on GitHub

BB 0.41+ and Node 24+ on the BB host. No account or token needed for the inbox.
