Scaffold a new pi-dashboard plugin in the dashboard monorepo, OR augment an existing pi-extension project on disk with dashboard plugin contributions. Hybrid skill: a single ask_user batch up front, then prescriptive steps the agent follows. Use when the user asks to "create a dashboard plugin", "add dashboard support to my extension", "scaffold a plugin", or similar.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Dashboard Plugin Scaffold

Two modes, one skill. Mode `new` scaffolds `packages/<id>-plugin/` inside the dashboard monorepo. Mode `augment` retrofits an existing pi-extension at the current working directory with a `pi-dashboard-plugin` manifest field and a `src/dashboard/` React subtree.

> **Server TypeScript must be erasable.** The dashboard server loads a plugin's `server` entry with Node's strip-only TypeScript loader, so plugin server code must not use `enum`, runtime `namespace`, or constructor parameter properties, and must import type-only symbols with `import type`. A plugin that does fails to load in isolation (the error names the file). The templates already comply; keep them that way when editing.

## Step 1 — Up-front ask_user batch

Use the `ask_user` tool, method `batch`, with these questions in order:

| # | Method | Title | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | select | "Mode" | options: `["new — scaffold a fresh packages/<id>-plugin/ in this dashboard monorepo", "augment — retrofit an existing pi-extension at cwd with dashboard plugin contributions"]` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add blackbelttechnology/pi-agent-dashboard/dashboard-plugin-scaffold@sha256:78ba8f6c128b65d9

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
