Skill: Configure Plugin Navigation

Workflow

  1. Open the plugin's src/config.tsx and nearby plugin config files.
  2. Reuse the plugin's existing IUIConfig shape: name, path, icon, navigationGroup, modules, and widgets when present.
  3. Use icons from @tabler/icons-react and keep icon naming consistent with nearby config files.
  4. Add module entries only when the module should appear in app navigation or settings navigation.
  5. Add relationWidgets or floating widgets only when the plugin exposes and implements those widget surfaces.
  6. Keep paths aligned with route registration and Module Federation exposes.
  7. Run pnpm nx lint <plugin> and pnpm nx build <plugin> for code changes.

Important

  • Do not add plugin-specific navigation or widgets in frontend/core-ui.
  • Do not use IconSandbox as a final icon unless the surrounding plugin is intentionally still placeholder-quality.
  • Check module-federation.config.ts before adding widget or module config that depends on a remote expose.
  • Preserve hasSettings, relation widget, and floating widget behavior used by nearby plugin config files.
