Plugins
Mumcord can be extended with small, safe plugins: installed from an official repository in Settings, with no change to the server and no Mumcord backend. The first plugin is Echolings.

Plugins in Mumcord 4
- done: A Plugins section in Settings: browse, install, turn on and off, configure, update and remove, without accounts or ratings
- done: See in plain words what a plugin may do before installing it, say no to optional parts and change your mind later
- done: Plugins show UI only in fixed places and never as their own HTML. Mumcord draws it in your theme and accessibly
- done: A server can recommend through Mumbot which plugins its community uses. Mumcord shows it calmly in the notification centre
Safe and without a backend 5
- done: Plugins run sealed off in a sandbox, without access to the network, files, the microphone or your certificate
- done: Only signed, verified packages. Unofficial plugins are clearly marked
- done: Updates without surprises, never silently more permissions, and a harmful plugin can be switched off for everyone quickly
- done: An official plugin repository on GitHub, open to review and without any Mumcord server
- done: Add more repositories from communities by URL, clearly marked as not reviewed
For developers 5
- done: A small, strict manifest and clear version rules
- done: An interface for events, storage, timers, notifications and the theme, each behind a permission
- done: Plugins talk to the same plugin on other Mumcord clients through Mumble plugin data
- done: A template, a command-line tool, an SDK and a test host: a plugin in an afternoon
- done: The website lists the plugins from the official repository
The first plugins 4
- done: Polls as the first test plugin: ask a question, vote and watch the result live, in a channel or in private messages
- done: Dice as the second test plugin: /roll in the chat with standard dice notation, an animated dice card and rolls everyone can check
- done: Echolings: a small creature made of sound that lives in Mumcord, grows with you and your friends and shows up beside you in voice. Never nagging, punishing or selling
- done: Built only on the public plugin interface, as proof that it is enough and as the example in the docs
