Plugin Architecture Skill

This skill instructs agents on how plugins are defined, registered, and how generators interact with the plugin lifecycle.

When to Use

• When users ask how to create a plugin or resolve names/paths
• When explaining generator lifecycles and utility helpers

What It Does

• Describes PluginManager and plugin hooks (pre, post, resolvePath, resolveName, install)
• Shows a typical plugin factory shape
• Lists common helper utilities used within generators and components

Example Plugin Shape

export const definePlugin = createPlugin<PluginOptions>((options) => ({
  name: pluginName,
  options,
  pre: [],
  post: [],
  resolvePath(baseName, mode, options) { /* ... */ },
  resolveName(name, type) { /* ... */ },
  async install() { /* ... */ },
}))

Utilities to Reference

• getFile(operation, { pluginKey })
• getName(operation, { type, prefix })
• getSchemas(operation, { pluginKey, type })
