vybe 01ac7e9041 feat: add dms-plugin-dev agent skill for Dank Material Shell plugin development 
- Introduces a general-purpose opencode skill to help agents build, debug, and publish DMS plugins.
- Includes orientation, decision trees (plugin types), condensed cheat sheets, ecosystem map, and four generic vertical-slice starter templates (bar widget, popout widget, launcher, desktop widget).
- Skill is versioned here for this project while remaining available as a global opencode skill.
- Updated .gitignore to ignore globally-installed copies of the skill.

Example Bar Widget Template

Minimal, modern starter for a simple DankBar widget that shows text and has one setting.

How to Use This Template

  1. Copy the entire widget-bar/ folder to: ~/.config/DankMaterialShell/plugins/YourPluginName/

  2. Edit plugin.json:

    • Change id (must be unique, camelCase)
    • Update name, description, author
    • Adjust icon if desired

  3. Rename and customize Widget.qml and Settings.qml.

  4. Enable the plugin:

    • Open DMS Settings → Plugins
    • Click "Scan for Plugins"
    • Toggle it on
    • Add it to your DankBar layout (Appearance → DankBar)

  5. Reload during development: dms ipc call plugins reload yourPluginId

What This Demonstrates

  • Correct plugin.json with settings_write permission
  • Use of PluginComponent with both horizontal and vertical pills
  • Reactive access to settings via pluginData
  • Modern settings UI using PluginSettings + StringSetting
  • Proper use of Theme and DankIcon

Next Steps

  • Add a popoutContent for a panel when the user clicks the pill.
  • Add layerNamespacePlugin if you add a popout.
  • Explore the other templates in this skill for launcher, desktop, and Control Center patterns.

This template is intentionally tiny. Read the official plugin development guide for the full surface.
