🛠️ Plugin Development

Creating Your First Plugin

1. Setup Plugin Directory:

mkdir ~/.osvm/plugins/weather-plugin
cd ~/.osvm/plugins/weather-plugin

2. Create Plugin Manifest (plugin.json):

{
  "name": "weather-plugin",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Get weather information for any city",
  "author": "Your Name",
  "license": "MIT",
  "plugin_type": "Command",
  "entry_point": "weather.py",
  "dependencies": ["requests"],
  "permissions": [
    {"NetworkAccess": ["api.openweathermap.org"]},
    "EnvironmentAccess"
  ],
  "min_osvm_version": "0.8.0",
  "supported_platforms": ["linux", "macos", "windows"]
}

3. Create Plugin Script (weather.py):

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import json
import sys
import requests
from datetime import datetime

def main():
    # Read context from stdin
    context = json.loads(sys.stdin.read())

    # Parse command
    user_input = context["user_input"]
    city = user_input.replace("/weather", "").strip()

    if not city:
        result = {
            "success": False,
            "error": "Please specify a city: /weather Boston"
        }
        print(json.dumps(result))
        return

    # Get weather data (simplified example)
    try:
        # Your weather API logic here
        result = {
            "success": True,
            "output": f"🌤️ Weather in {city}: 22°C, Partly Cloudy",
            "suggestions": [f"/weather forecast {city}"]
        }
    except Exception as e:
        result = {
            "success": False,
            "error": f"Failed to get weather: {str(e)}"
        }

    print(json.dumps(result))

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

4. Make Executable and Test:

chmod +x weather.py
osvm plugins install .
osvm plugins enable weather-plugin

# Test in chat
osvm chat
# Type: /weather Boston

Plugin Security

Permission System:

• ReadFiles(["~/data"]) - File read access
• WriteFiles(["~/output"]) - File write access
• ExecuteCommands - System command execution
• NetworkAccess(["api.example.com"]) - Network access
• EnvironmentAccess - Environment variables
• MCPAccess - MCP server access
• AIAccess - AI service access

Best Practices:

• Request minimal permissions
• Validate all user input
• Use secure connections
• Handle errors gracefully
• Store secrets in config, not code
