- Use structured logging with key-value pairs
- Follow existing naming conventions
- Keep command files self-contained and testable
### Documentation
- **CRITICAL**: Keep README.md updated when adding new commands or changing functionality
- README.md should be user-facing - focus on usage, not implementation details
- Use `pluginctl --help` for command documentation, not hardcoded lists in README

## Requirements
- Go 1.24.3 or later
- Go 1.24.3 or later (for building from source)
- Valid Mattermost plugin directory with `plugin.json` manifest file
## Development Tools
## Development
The project uses the following tools for development and release automation:
- **golangci-lint** v1.62.2 - Code linting and quality checks
- **goreleaser** v2.6.2 - Automated releases and cross-platform builds
- **gosec** v2.22.0 - Security vulnerability scanning
## Plugin Directory Structure
`pluginctl` expects to work with standard Mattermost plugin directories containing a `plugin.json` file. For more information about Mattermost plugin structure, visit the [official documentation](https://developers.mattermost.com/integrate/plugins/).
## Environment Variables
| Variable | Description |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| `PLUGINCTL_PLUGIN_PATH` | Default plugin directory path |

### Development Setup
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/mattermost/pluginctl.git
cd pluginctl
```
2. Set up development environment (installs pinned tool versions):
### Quick Start
```bash
# Set up development environment
make dev-setup
```
3. Install dependencies:
```bash
# Install dependencies
make deps
```
4. Build the project:
```bash
make build
```
5. Test with a sample plugin:
```bash
./pluginctl info
```
### Development Workflow
Use these Make targets for efficient development:
```bash
# Quick development build (format, lint, build)
make dev
# Check all changes before committing (lint, security, test)
# Run tests and checks before committing
make check-changes
# Full verification (clean, lint, test, build)
make verify
# Run tests with coverage
make test-coverage
# Build for all platforms
make build-all
```
### Available Make Targets
