- What is a Stream Deck plugin?
- A plugin is software that adds new actions to the Elgato Stream Deck app. Where a profile is a layout whose keys fire keyboard shortcuts at whatever application is in focus, a plugin's keys talk to a service and draw the answer on the key face itself — a follower count, a deploy status, a revenue figure. It keeps working when the app it reports on is closed, because it is not sending keystrokes to anything.
- How many Stream Deck plugins are there here, and what do they cover?
- 15, carrying 60 features between them: Twitch Studio Creator (Followers, subs, viewers, raid alerts and stream controls — all from one app token.) Kick Stats Tracker (Every public Kick stat — yours, or a streamer you mod. No browser tab needed.) YouTube Stats Tracker (The channel dashboard YouTube Studio never shipped: subs, views, milestones, latest upload.) GitHub Stars Tracker (Stars, forks, issues and milestones — on a key that flashes gold the moment you cross one.) Netlify Deploy Tracker (Deploy status, build duration and a live log tail. Know your site is up before your users do.) Vercel Deploy Tracker (Push to main and watch the key: green means live, red means fix it now. No browser tab.) Gumroad Sales Tracker (Live revenue, top products and last sale, with a pink flash the instant a new one lands.) AI Token Tracker (Claude, OpenAI and Mistral token usage live, with cost estimates and a red pulse past 90%.) Patreon Studio Creator (Every patron, pledge, milestone and tier on a glanceable key. Paste one token, done.) Steam Developer Studio (Live players, review score, recent sentiment and patch notes. One App ID, no OAuth.) Stripe Revenue Tracker (MRR, today's sales, balance and subs in glance range. Zero dashboards, zero tab switching.) AI Agent Status (Working, ready, or blocked on you — for Claude Code and Codex. Reads local session files, sends nothing.) Roblox Creator Stats (Players now, visits, favourites and like ratio for any experience. Paste the game URL — no account, no API key.) Fortnite Creator Stats (Nine numbers from Epic's island analytics — peak CCU, plays, retention — on keys. Paste the island code, nothing else.) 3D Filament Tracker (Grams left on every spool, cost per print and a drying countdown. Klipper subtracts as you print.)
- How do I install a Stream Deck plugin?
- Buy it on the Elgato Marketplace and open the download. The Stream Deck software installs it and the plugin's actions appear in the actions list on the right, grouped under its name. Drag one onto a key and fill in its settings — usually a single API token or key. There is no separate installer.
- Which Stream Deck models do the plugins work with?
- All of them: Stream Deck Mini, Stream Deck Neo, Stream Deck MK.2, Stream Deck XL, Stream Deck +, Stream Deck + XL. Unlike a profile, a plugin is not a fixed layout — you place its actions on keys yourself — so the device only decides how many you see at once. Dial actions need one of the Stream Deck + or Stream Deck + XL models.
- Do the plugins need an API key?
- Most do, and one is the whole setup: each plugin authenticates against the service it reports on with a single token you paste into the action's settings. The token stays in your local Stream Deck configuration — nothing is proxied through this site.
