Plugins

Most Glade work does not require plugins. The base runtime covers local Apex checks, focused tests, anonymous Apex, SOQL, DML, local data, VS Code, and CI output.

Use plugins when you need a first-party extension that stays outside the base runtime. Glade plugins are standalone executables installed and run through glade plugins.

First-party licensing

Glade Tools source and v0.2.13 release-candidate plugin archives use the Apache License 2.0 and carry project and linked-component notices. Published plugin versions before v0.2.13 do not contain the new packaged notice set. Product and plugin versions remain independent; the core quickstart needs no plugin.

Default registry

The default public registry at https://plugins.glade.sh/index.json serves @glade/compat, @glade/orgpackage, and @glade/performance. glade plugins available shows the current published versions. Base Glade install and local Apex workflows do not require plugins. Direct archives and local links remain available for offline, private, and development use.

First-party plugins

• @glade/performance - advisory Salesforce performance scans.
• @glade/orgpackage - captures installed package contracts from a Salesforce org into a Glade package artifact.

glade plugins available
glade plugins install @glade/performance
glade plugins install @glade/orgpackage

The short aliases performance and orgpackage resolve to @glade/performance and @glade/orgpackage. After @glade/orgpackage is installed or linked, glade package capture ... dispatches to glade orgpackage capture ....

Maintainer support tools

@glade/compat is a first-party maintainer plugin. It carries compatibility fixtures, runtime capability reports, compatibility dashboards, and support scanners used to extend and check Glade itself. Keep that work out of the base runtime. Use the maintainer lane when you need it.

Registry and third-party plugins

glade plugins available
glade plugins search
glade plugins search quality
glade plugins info @acme/quality
glade plugins install @acme/quality

Registry catalogs are configured. Third-party publishers can also use a custom registry or a direct archive URL. available and bare search list the installable catalog before you know a plugin name.

Install a remote archive only with a pinned digest:

glade plugins install https://github.com/acme/glade-plugin-quality/releases/download/v1.2.0/glade-plugin-quality_1.2.0_darwin_arm64.tar.gz --sha256 <hash>

Team and CI lock files should restore registry or archive installs.
