Contribute Plugin to OpenDesign

Use this workflow when the active project contains a copied plugin folder and the user wants to propose it for the OpenDesign community catalog.

Workflow

  1. Read the active plugin inputs. plugin_context_path is the copied plugin folder relative to the project working directory.
  2. Inspect the copied plugin's manifest, skill instructions, examples, and compatibility metadata.
  3. Call the local daemon endpoint instead of hand-rolling GitHub commands: curl -sS -X POST "$OD_DAEMON_URL/api/projects/$OD_PROJECT_ID/plugins/contribute-open-design" -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"path":"<plugin_context_path>"}'
  4. Read the JSON response. If ok is true, report the PR URL, branch name when present in the log, and any useful validation summary.
  5. If the endpoint fails, report its message, code, and useful log lines. When authentication is missing, tell the user to run gh auth login --hostname github.com.

Keep the pull request focused. Do not modify unrelated OpenDesign files unless a manifest validation issue requires a tiny supporting change.

FAQ

What is a 'pull request'?

It's a request to include your changes (your plugin, in this case) into a larger project (the OpenDesign catalog).

What happens if my plugin isn't accepted?

The tool will show the errors or reasons, and you can fix your plugin and try again.

Do I need a GitHub account?

Yes, you need to be logged into GitHub for the tool to submit your proposal.
