Hello Plugin

Installable IdeA plugin example rebuilt from the public SDK types.

It exercises the current plugin primitives end to end:

• top-level menu: Hello Plugin;
• menu entry: hello-plugin;
• command: hello-plugin, returning hello-world;
• layout contribution: hello-plugin.hello-world, rendered as hello-world.
• tooling capability: logs the focused workspace project when ctx.services is available.

npm run typecheck:examples
npm run package:hello-plugin

The installable archive is emitted at examples/hello-plugin/build/hello-plugin-0.1.0.zip. It contains idea-plugin.json at the ZIP root and the compiled ESM entrypoint at dist/index.js, matching the manifest main field.

Diagnostics

During activation the plugin logs:

• whether the command and layout runtime registries are available;
• successful registration of the hello-plugin command;
• successful registration of the hello-plugin.hello-world layout;
• availability of the workspace service from the tooling runtime capability;
• the first layout render, including project/node identifiers.

These messages are intentionally small and stable so installation, bundle import, activation and layout rendering failures can be separated quickly in IdeA logs/devtools.
