FAQPage Schema
How do I manage plugin configurations using YAML frontmatter?

To manage plugin configurations using YAML frontmatter, you store user settings in `.Codex/plugin-name.local.md` files. This approach separates configuration from source code, allowing behavior adjustments across environments without code changes.

What is the best way to store local settings for a markdown-based plugin?

The best way to store local settings for a markdown-based plugin is writing them to `.Codex/plugin-name.local.md` files. This method uses YAML frontmatter and markdown content to document and access plugin-specific configurations safely.

Can I execute hooks based on plugin settings stored in markdown files?

Yes, you can execute hooks based on plugin settings stored in markdown files. The configuration management process reads YAML frontmatter from `.Codex/plugin-name.local.md` files and triggers hooks according to those defined settings.

How do I read and write to .Codex local.md files for configuration management?

Reading and writing to `.Codex/plugin-name.local.md` files requires standard YAML parsing and file I/O operations. You create the markdown file, define your required settings in the YAML frontmatter, and the plugin accesses them during runtime.

Do I need YAML parsing to use markdown files for plugin settings?

Yes, YAML parsing is required to use markdown files for plugin settings. The Skill relies on YAML parsing to read the frontmatter and file I/O operations to access the `.Codex/plugin-name.local.md` configuration files.

Why use markdown content for plugin configuration instead of changing source code?

Using markdown content for plugin configuration allows you to control plugin behavior in different environments without modifying source code. It provides a user-friendly interface by storing and documenting settings in accessible `.Codex/plugin-name.local.md` files.
