FAQPage Schema
How do I discover what skills are available in my Looplia plugins?

Scan installed plugins to discover available skills by parsing each plugin's SKILL.md frontmatter. The registry scan returns a deterministic JSON output listing all plugins, their skills, and inferred capabilities for workflow orchestration.

What does plugin registry scanning do?

Plugin registry scanning reads SKILL.md frontmatter metadata from installed Looplia plugins to build a comprehensive registry. It extracts skill names, descriptions, tools, and models, then infers capabilities via pattern matching to output a structured registry.

Can I use plugin registry scanning to see all Looplia capabilities at once?

Yes. Running the deterministic scan script outputs a complete JSON registry showing all plugins, their skills, and aggregated capabilities in one structured summary, making it easy to understand what Looplia can do across your installed plugins.

How does frontmatter parsing work in the registry scan?

Frontmatter parsing extracts metadata from SKILL.md files using YAML parsing to read name, description, tools, and model fields. Pattern matching on descriptions then infers capabilities, enabling the registry to map skills to their functional purposes.

What happens if a plugin's SKILL.md is missing or malformed?

The scanner processes valid SKILL.md files with proper YAML frontmatter. Plugins without valid frontmatter may be skipped or handled gracefully depending on implementation, ensuring the registry remains deterministic and usable for workflow composition.

Can I use the registry output to automate workflow composition?

Yes. The deterministic JSON registry provides structured skill and capability metadata designed for downstream workflow orchestration, enabling programmatic composition of skills based on available tools and model support across plugins.
