Settings: Plugins
Plugins add local bundles of tools, skills, apps, or integrations. They can make Row-Bot more capable, but they should be treated as code that runs with local app permissions.
Where To Find It
Open Settings, then choose Plugins from the left tab list.
Controls
- Installed plugin cards show version, status, and available actions.
- Enable and disable controls decide whether plugin capabilities are active.
- Configure opens plugin-specific settings when provided.
- Update and remove actions manage local plugin installations.
- Marketplace opens discovery and install previews.
- Custom Tools promotion turns reviewed local tools into reusable plugin-like capabilities.
Common Workflow
- Install plugins only from sources you trust.
- Read the plugin description and requested fields before enabling it.
- Configure required settings, then test with a low-risk prompt.
- Disable or remove plugins you no longer use.
What Is Saved
Installed plugins and plugin settings are local files. Plugin secrets should use secret storage when the plugin supports it.
Privacy And Safety
Review credential, account, channel, provider, or tool settings before enabling features that can contact outside services. Local-only features stay on your machine until you ask Row-Bot to use a provider, account, channel, MCP server, plugin, or tool that sends data elsewhere.
Control-Level Reference
The generated Settings Controls reference lists the visible controls found in the current application source, including defaults, allowed values when they are declared inline, dependencies, restart notes, security notes, and source locations.
Troubleshooting
- If a plugin does not load, check its manifest and dependency messages.
- If plugin tools do not appear, confirm the plugin is enabled and restart if instructed.
- If a plugin behaves unexpectedly, disable it first, then inspect its configuration.
