Manifest

The Manifest is a YAML-compliant file that defines the most basic information of a plugin, including but not limited to the plugin name, author, included tools, models, etc. For the overall architecture of the plugin, please refer to Basic Concepts of Plugin Development and Developer Cheatsheet.

If the format of this file is incorrect, the parsing and packaging process of the plugin will fail.

  • type (type, required): Plugin type, currently only plugin is supported, bundle will be supported in the future.
  • author (string, required): Author, defined as the organization name in the Marketplace.
  • label (label, required): Multilingual name.
  • created_at (RFC3339, required): Creation time, required by the Marketplace not to be later than the current time.
  • icon (asset, required): Icon path.
  • resource (object): Resources to apply for.
    • memory (int64): Maximum memory usage, mainly related to AWS Lambda resource application on SaaS, unit in bytes.
    • permission (object): Permission application.
      • tool (object): Permission for reverse invocation of tools.
        • enabled (bool)
      • model (object): Permission for reverse invocation of models.
        • enabled (bool)
        • llm (bool)
        • text_embedding (bool)
        • rerank (bool)
        • tts (bool)
        • speech2text (bool)
        • moderation (bool)
      • node (object): Permission for reverse invocation of nodes.
        • enabled (bool)

  • plugins (object, required): A list of yaml files for the specific capabilities extended by the plugin. Absolute path within the plugin package. For example, if you need to extend a model, you need to define a file similar to openai.yaml, fill in the file path here, and the file at this path must actually exist, otherwise packaging will fail.

    • arch (list[string], required): Supported architectures, currently only amd64 arm64 are supported.
