Development workflow

Fast iteration while building plugins.

• Start Dot X so the local Socket.IO server is available
• Run your plugin with Deno/Node from its folder
• Watch for logs in the app or in plugin.log inside your plugin folder

Hot reload tips

• Use Deno --watch or a Node watcher to restart on file changes
• Keep onUnload idempotent so restarts are clean

Logs

• The runtime appends to plugin.log and rotates when large
• Use console.log in your plugin for easy tracing

Connection states

• waitForConnection() blocks until the SDK registers with the host
• Expose a simple readiness check in your plugin logs
