Create Wiki Plugin Skill

Note: the upstream page create-wiki-plugin-skill was unreachable (HTTP 404) when this skill was materialized on 2026-06-21. This body is reconstructed from the sitemap synopsis and the cross-references in searching-for-plugins and similarity-plugin. Refresh it with agentprivacy-wiki-to-skill once the upstream page resolves.

The create-wiki-plugin skill scaffolds a new Federated Wiki plugin package from scratch. A fedwiki plugin is an npm package named wiki-plugin-{name} that adds a new story item type (and optionally server routes) to the wiki.

Package Layout

wiki-plugin-{name}/
  package.json            # name: "wiki-plugin-{name}"
  client/{name}.js        # the client plugin — registers the item type
  server/server.js        # optional — registers Express routes at startup
  index.js                # entry that exposes client/server
  README.md

The Client Registration Line

Every fedwiki client plugin registers itself on the global window.plugins object. This is the decisive marker (a GitHub code search for it proves a plugin exists):

window.plugins.{name} = {
  emit: (div, item) => { /* render item.text into div */ },
  bind: (div, item) => { /* attach click/handlers after emit */ }
};

• emit renders the item into the page (parse item.text, build DOM).
• bind wires up interactivity after emit (clicks, form submits, internal links).

Optional Server Component

If the plugin needs routes (search, embeddings, ghost-page endpoints), add server/server.js that registers with the wiki's Express app at startup — no changes to wiki-server core:

module.exports = (app) => {
  app.get('/system/{name}.json', (req, res) => { /* ... */ });
};

Good Scaffolding Templates

Per the searching-for-plugins skill, the two best templates to copy from:

• wiki-plugin-graphviz — client-side rendering with clickable internal links (a clean client-only plugin)
• wiki-plugin-similarity — DSL parsing in item.text, server routes, and ghost pages (a full client+server plugin)

Steps

1. Confirm the plugin doesn't already exist (agentprivacy-wiki-searching-plugins).
2. Copy a template (graphviz for client-only, similarity for client+server).
3. Rename the package to wiki-plugin-{name}; update the window.plugins.{name} registration.
4. Implement emit/bind for the new item type.
5. Add server/server.js if routes are needed.
6. npm link into a local wiki farm to test.
7. Document it (agentprivacy-wiki-document-plugin) and release it (agentprivacy-wiki-publish-plugin).
