## Note-- added plugin mentions via @, but that conflicts with file
mentions
depends and builds upon #13433.
- introduces explicit `@plugin` mentions. this injects the plugin's mcp
servers, app names, and skill name format into turn context as a dev
message.
- we do not yet have UI for these mentions, so we currently parse raw
text (as opposed to skills and apps which have UI chips, autocomplete,
etc.) this depends on a `plugins/list` app-server endpoint we can feed
the UI with, which is upcoming
- also annotate mcp and app tool descriptions with the plugin(s) they
come from. this gives the model a first class way of understanding what
tools come from which plugins, which will help implicit invocation.
### Tests
Added and updated tests, unit and integration. Also confirmed locally a
raw `@plugin` injects the dev message, and the model knows about its
apps, mcps, and skills.
### first half of changes, followed by #13510
Track plugin capabilities as derived summaries on `PluginLoadOutcome`
for enabled plugins with at least one skill/app/mcp.
Also add `Plugins` section to `user_instructions` injected on session
start. These introduce the plugins concept and list enabled plugins, but
do NOT currently include paths to enabled plugins or details on what
apps/mcps the plugins contain (current plan is to inject this on
@-mention). that can be adjusted in a follow up and based on evals.
### tests
Added/updated tests, confirmed locally that new `Plugins` section +
currently enabled plugins show up in `user_instructions`.
Support marketplace.json that points to a local file, with
```
"source":
{
"source": "local",
"path": "./plugin-1"
},
```
Add a new plugin/install endpoint which add the plugin to the cache folder and enable it in config.toml.
load plugin-apps from `.app.json`.
make apps runtime-mentionable iff `codex_apps` MCP actually exposes
tools for that `connector_id`.
if the app isn't available, it's filtered out of runtime connector set,
so no tools are added and no app-mentions resolve.
right now we don't have a clean cli-side error for an app not being
installed. can look at this after.
### Tests
Added tests, tested locally that using a plugin that bundles an app
picks up the app.
Update config.toml plugin entries to use
<plugin_name>@<marketplace_name> as the key.
Plugin now stays in
[plugins/cache/marketplace-name/plugin-name/$version/]
Clean up the plugin code structure.
Add plugin install functionality (not used yet).
