vybe 01ac7e9041 feat: add dms-plugin-dev agent skill for Dank Material Shell plugin development 
- Introduces a general-purpose opencode skill to help agents build, debug, and publish DMS plugins.
- Includes orientation, decision trees (plugin types), condensed cheat sheets, ecosystem map, and four generic vertical-slice starter templates (bar widget, popout widget, launcher, desktop widget).
- Skill is versioned here for this project while remaining available as a global opencode skill.
- Updated .gitignore to ignore globally-installed copies of the skill.

dms-plugin-dev

A focused skill for agents that builds or maintains plugins for Dank Material Shell (DMS).

What It Provides

  • Strong orientation and mental model for the DMS plugin system
  • Decision trees for choosing the right plugin type
  • Condensed cheat sheets for the highest-uncertainty surfaces (plugin.json, PluginComponent, PluginService, settings, popouts, permissions, launcher shape, etc.)
  • Curated ecosystem map (official docs, first-party examples, monorepo examples, registry)
  • Generic, modern vertical-slice starter templates (widget, popout widget, launcher, desktop)

Philosophy

This skill is deliberately thin and pointer-heavy. The official DMS documentation (especially the Plugin Development guide) is excellent and comprehensive. This skill exists to reduce the "I don't know what I don't know" problem for agents and to give them good starting points (templates) that follow current conventions.

It does not duplicate large sections of the official docs.

Location in the Skill

After the skill is loaded, you will have access to:

  • SKILL.md (entry point)
  • docs/plugin-types.md
  • docs/cheatsheets.md
  • docs/ecosystem.md
  • templates/ (copy these folders wholesale when starting a new plugin)

When to Load This Skill

Any time the user says:

  • "build a DMS plugin"
  • "add a widget / launcher / desktop thing to Dank Material Shell"
  • "debug this plugin.json / PluginComponent"
  • "publish this to the DMS plugin registry"
  • or mentions any of the core DMS plugin concepts

Maintenance

Low-maintenance by design. When the official docs or best practices evolve significantly, update the pointers and the templates. Do not try to be a second source of truth.
