Can I use this skill with a self-hosted Manifest instance?

Yes, during the configuration step, the skill will prompt you for an optional custom endpoint URL if you are not using the default cloud service.

How do I obtain a Manifest API key?

Sign in to app.manifest.build, click 'Connect Agent' to create a new agent profile, and copy the provided API key starting with the 'mnfst_' prefix.

What should I do if I get a 'Connection Refused' error?

Verify that your endpoint URL is reachable and that your network allows traffic to the Manifest API. If self-hosting, ensure your local instance is active.

How do I verify the plugin is running correctly?

The skill automatically checks your ~/.claude/logs/gateway.log for the message '[manifest] Observability pipeline active' to confirm successful setup.

Why do I need to stop the gateway before configuration?

Stopping the gateway prevents hot-reload conflicts and ensures that new plugin entries and API configurations are correctly loaded into the environment.
