SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines plugin management by enabling resolution across multiple registries, ensuring consistency and security in complex, multi-source environments.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-Registry Support: Integrates with local, team, and public plugin registries.
  • Policy Enforcement: Applies security rules to control which plugins can be used.
  • Lockfile Management: Ensures reproducible environments through deterministic version pinning.
  • Use Case: Manage plugins for a large organization by defining a trusted internal registry, a team-specific registry, and a public registry, all while enforcing security policies and maintaining a lockfile for consistent deployments.

Quick Start

Configure your local plugin registry by running the command /mp:registry add local ./plugins --priority 100.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage multi-source plugin resolution across different registries?

Multi-source plugin resolution integrates local, team, and public registries to manage dependencies. You configure registry sources with defined priorities so the system can pull plugins securely and consistently from multiple locations.

What is a lockfile used for in distributed plugin environments?

A lockfile ensures reproducible environments through deterministic version pinning. It synchronizes plugin dependencies across distributed systems, guaranteeing that deployments remain consistent and secure regardless of where they are executed.

How do I enforce security policies for plugins pulled from public registries?

Security policy enforcement applies defined rules to control which plugins can be used from any connected source. By configuring these policies, you restrict untrusted public registry plugins and ensure only approved dependencies are resolved.

Can I configure local and team-specific plugin registries with different priorities?

Yes, you can configure local and team-specific registries alongside public ones by assigning priority levels. This multi-registry support allows you to define trusted internal sources first, ensuring secure and organized dependency resolution.

What's the best way to set up a local plugin registry for deterministic deployments?

To set up a local plugin registry, use the command interface to add your directory and assign it a priority. This configuration, combined with lockfile synchronization, establishes the trusted source needed for deterministic deployments.

Why does plugin dependency resolution fail when using multiple registries without a lockfile?

Without a lockfile, dependency resolution lacks deterministic version pinning, causing inconsistent plugin versions across environments. Generating a lockfile enforces synchronization and ensures reproducible deployments in distributed systems.
