Create plugin

Create a new plugin scaffold using this flow:

  1. Gather inputs:
    • Plugin name (kebab-case)
    • Description and target users
    • Components to include (rules, skills, agents, commands, hooks, mcpServers)
  2. Create required files:
    • .cursor-plugin/plugin.json
    • README.md
    • LICENSE
  3. Add selected component folders and starter files with frontmatter.
  4. In multi-plugin repositories, update .cursor-plugin/marketplace.json with a new plugin entry.
  5. Return a summary of created files and any remaining manual setup.
