name: wox-plugin-creator
description: Create and scaffold Wox plugins (nodejs, python, script-nodejs, script-python). Use when cloning official SDK templates, generating script plugin templates, or preparing plugins for publish.
---
# Wox Plugin Creator
## Quick Start
- Scaffold a Node.js plugin (clones template repo):
- `python3 scripts/scaffold_wox_plugin.py --type nodejs --output-dir ./MyPlugin`
- Scaffold a Python plugin (clones template repo):
- `python3 scripts/scaffold_wox_plugin.py --type python --output-dir ./MyPlugin`
- Scaffold a script plugin (uses local templates; plugin-id auto-generated; single file output):
- `python3 scripts/scaffold_wox_plugin.py --type script-nodejs --output-dir ./Wox.Plugin.Script.MyScript.js --name "My Script" --trigger-keywords my`
## Workflow
### 1) Scaffold plugin files
- Use `scripts/scaffold_wox_plugin.py` for `nodejs`, `python`, `script-nodejs`, or `script-python`.
- For Node.js and Python, the scaffold clones the official template repos and replaces placeholders like `{{.ID}}`, `{{.Name}}`, `{{.Description}}`, `{{.TriggerKeywordsJSON}}`, `{{.Author}}`.
- Script plugins are **single-file** plugins. Prefer filenames like `Wox.Plugin.Script.<Name>.<ext>` (e.g., `Wox.Plugin.Script.Memos.py`).
- For script plugins, the scaffold copies Wox script templates from `~/.wox/ai/skills/wox-plugin-creator/assets/script_plugin_templates/` and fills metadata placeholders.
- Prefer standard library features; avoid third-party dependencies unless absolutely necessary.
- For SDK usage and API details, read `references/sdk_nodejs.md` or `references/sdk_python.md`.
### 2) Package and publish
- For SDK plugins cloned from templates, run `make publish` inside the template repo.
- Publishing notes: `references/publishing.md`.
