FAQPage Schema

How do I scaffold a new plugin for the nucleo CLI?▼

Scaffolding a nucleo plugin generates a plugins/<name>/ folder with a plugin.json manifest and an entrypoint. This standardizes the structure, supporting multiple languages like Node.js, Python, and shell.

What files do I need to create a nucleo plugin?▼

You need a plugins/<name>/ folder with a plugin.json manifest and an entrypoint that reads environment variables and outputs JSON. A test flow using nucleo plugins install is also wired for validation.

Can I use Python to develop a nucleo plugin?▼

Yes, Python is supported for nucleo plugin development. The scaffold supports multiple languages including Node.js, Python, and shell, allowing flexible entrypoint implementation for your commands.

How does a nucleo plugin entrypoint work?▼

A nucleo plugin entrypoint works by reading environment variables and outputting JSON. This language-agnostic mechanism allows the nucleo CLI to execute and integrate wired commands reliably.

How do I test a newly scaffolded nucleo plugin?▼

You test a newly scaffolded nucleo plugin by running a test flow with nucleo plugins install. This validates the plugin.json manifest and ensures the command wiring functions correctly within the CLI.

Why standardize nucleo plugin structure?▼

Standardizing nucleo plugin structure prevents manual creation errors by providing a repeatable scaffold. This ensures consistent manifests, clean entrypoints, and reliable command wiring for developer workflows.
