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.

Registry preview

Registry commands below need a configured registry, a direct archive URL, or a locally linked plugin. Base Glade install and local Apex workflows do not require plugins.

First-party plugins

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

# Requires a live plugin registry or configured custom registry.
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 preview plugins

# Requires a live plugin registry or configured custom registry.
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.
