Reference

Look up how crickets is built — what a plugin is, the kinds you can author, where each lands, the manifest contract, and the host hooks.

What's here

• Plugin anatomy — what a crickets plugin is and how it's structured (the anchor — start here).
• Repo layout — what lives where in the repo.
• Customization Types — the primitive kinds (skill · agent · command · hook · snippet).
• Per-Host Paths — where each kind lands inside the generated plugin, per host.
• Manifest Schema — the frontmatter + group.yaml contract.
• Compatibility — supported hosts + per-plugin and per-hook effectiveness.
• CI gates — the local gate battery + the 3-OS CI matrix.
• Troubleshooting — symptom-first lookup when something stops working.
• Antigravity Limitations — the agy host-gaps register + crickets mitigations.
• Hooks — the hook catalog + how hooks work (the developer-safety control trio is driven from its plugin page).
• Evaluator — the read-only rubric grader + its dispatch contract.
• Wiki Watch Config — the wiki-watcher config contract.
• Style-learning loop — how the wiki stays in your voice + what invokes it.
• Modify a plugin · Add a skill · Add a plugin — author, extend, and create plugins.
