Plugin Development FAQs

Question 1

What does the Plugin Development skill do?

Accepted Answer

This skill streamlines the creation of cross-platform extensions for Claude Code and OpenCode. It provides a unified content system (ai-eng-system) that automatically transforms your commands, agents, and skills into the correct format for both platforms.

Question 2

Does this skill include automated validation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It includes built-in validation tools that check YAML syntax, directory structures, and frontmatter requirements. This ensures your extensions are compatible and error-free before you deploy them to Claude Code or OpenCode.

Question 3

When should I use this skill?

Accepted Answer

Use this skill whenever you need to extend Claude Code's capabilities, create project-specific commands, build specialized sub-agents, or develop custom tools and skills for a standardized AI engineering workflow.

Question 4

What specific components can I build with this skill?

Accepted Answer

You can create a wide range of components including automated commands, specialized AI agents, structured skills (SKILL.md), platform-specific hooks, custom tools via TypeScript, and MCP (Model Context Protocol) server configurations.

Question 5

How does it simplify cross-platform development?

Accepted Answer

It uses a 'Canonical Development' approach where you write configuration in a single directory. The system then automatically converts your YAML frontmatter and markdown content into platform-specific outputs like Claude Code manifests or OpenCode table formats.
