Publishing a plugin meant hand-building the zip, running shasum + stat,
resolving the tag's commit, and hand-writing the whole registry entry.
The SDK does all of it now:
- `trek-plugin pack` builds plugin.zip in the exact layout the installer
reads (own tiny zip writer, so the SDK stays dependency-free and the
format can't drift from the reader), enforces the same native-binary and
size rules, and prints the sha256 + size. docs/ is left out — the store
fetches the screenshot from the repo, so it doesn't belong in the install
artifact (Koffi's went from 943 KB to 15 KB).
- `trek-plugin entry` emits the ready-to-PR registry entry from the manifest
+ the packed zip + the git tag: commitSha (deref'd), downloadUrl, sha256,
size, and minTrekVersion derived from the manifest's trek range. `--merge`
prepends a new version onto an existing entry for updates.
- `trek-plugin release` chains pack → gh release → entry.
Also: the scaffold now points the README at docs/screenshot.png (the path
the store actually fetches, was screenshot-1.png) with a size hint, and
stops hard-coding an MIT license — a plugin is the author's own code under
their own license. Round-tripped against the real server extractor; 18 tests.
The author-facing SDK, a standalone dependency-free package (not wired into the
app workspaces, so it can't affect the app build).
- definePlugin + the full plugin type surface (PluginContext, PluginRoute,
PluginJob, PhotoProvider, CalendarSource) mirroring what the isolated runtime
injects; PLUGIN_API_VERSION.
- createMockHost (trek-plugin-sdk/testing): a PluginContext that enforces the
SAME permission model + membership checks, so authors can unit-test that their
plugin degrades gracefully — no running TREK needed.
- validateManifest: the exact rules the registry CI runs, so a local pass
predicts a CI pass.
- CLIs: create-trek-plugin (scaffolds a working plugin + README + starter iframe)
and trek-plugin validate (manifest + README sanity).
Consolidating the server loader to import this shared validator is a follow-up.
