plugin-lifecycle Skill
Purpose: Manage the complete lifecycle of plugins from installation to removal with proper state tracking and safety features.
Overview
This skill handles all plugin lifecycle operations on macOS:
- Installation (Mode 1): Copy Release binaries to system folders (
~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/) - Uninstallation (Mode 2): Clean removal from system folders (preserves source code)
- Reset to Ideation (Mode 3): Remove implementation, keep idea/mockups (surgical rollback)
- Destroy (Mode 4): Complete removal with backup (nuclear option)
All operations include proper permissions, cache clearing, state tracking, and safety features (confirmations, backups).
