What Are Single-File Plugins?

This section needs expansion.

You can help by expanding it.

Single-file plugins are a single JavaScript file that exports a plugin object containing metadata and a list of actions.

Here are some limitations of single-file plugins:

The plugin cannot be imported by simply double-clicking it.
There is a warning before importing it.
The plugin script file cannot access the pluginEnv variable.
The plugin script file is also run when importing the plugin (the actions are not run until the installations process starts).
