Extensions, without the guesswork

Plugins and extensions

Lyre’s broader extension design covers new workflows, editors, runtime adapters and device capabilities. The existing foundation plugin system is a concrete development path for supported UI and host contributions. A plugin is not evidence that every extension capability or permission boundary exists.

How to add one today

If the author supplies a compatible foundation plugin, follow the plugin installation guide and its trust requirements. If a listing only describes a future extension, there is no executable installation to perform.

Check the supported host version, source repository, license, dependencies and requested access. Do not paste installation commands from an unreviewed listing into your terminal.

Native features need their own support

A JavaScript plugin cannot silently install native phone modules or grant camera, desktop capture or system input permissions. Native capabilities need an appropriate client build and explicit platform permission.

Desktop-video support is a separate planned extension. It is distinct from the core app-preview workflow and must not inherit permission merely because someone can view one app.

Have an extension idea?

Start with a narrow contribution and document the permissions it needs. Prepare an extension explains what you can prototype now and which contracts are still planned.
