What this skill does
Contribute Plugin to OpenDesign Use this workflow when the active project contains a copied plugin folder and the user wants to propose it for the OpenDesign community catalog. Workflow 1. Read the active plugin inputs. plugincontextpath is the copied plugin folder relative to the project working directory. 2. Inspect the copied plugin's manifest, skill instructions, examples, and compatibility metadata. 3. Call the local daemon endpoint instead of hand-rolling GitHub commands: curl -sS -X POST "$ODDAEMONURL/api/projects/$ODPROJECTID/plugins/contribute-open-design" -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"path":"<plugincontextpath>"}' 4. Read the JSON response. If ok is true, report the PR URL, branch name when present in the log, and any useful validation summary. 5. If the endpoint fails, report its message, code, and useful log lines. When authentication is missing, tell the user to run gh auth login --hostname github.com. Keep the pull request focused. Do not modify unrelated OpenDesign files unless a manifest validation issue requires a tiny supporting change.
