You can update the marketplace.json file by running the script with the marketplace update option. It automates the addition or replacement of plugin entries in the marketplace listing, streamlining the registration and deployment process.

What is the best way to ensure consistency across multiple plugin development workflows?

The best way to ensure consistency across plugin development workflows is to use an automated scaffolding tool. It standardizes directory structures and configuration files, eliminating manual errors and accelerating the deployment of new plugins.
