# Description - Plugin signatures are now saved to `plugin.msgpackz`, which is brotli-compressed MessagePack. - The file is updated incrementally, rather than writing all plugin commands in the engine every time. - The file always contains the result of the `Signature` call to the plugin, even if commands were removed. - Invalid data for a particular plugin just causes an error to be reported, but the rest of the plugins can still be parsed # User-Facing Changes - The plugin file has a different filename, and it's not a nushell script. - The default `plugin.nu` file will be automatically migrated the first time, but not other plugin config files. - We don't currently provide any utilities that could help edit this file, beyond `plugin add` and `plugin rm` - `from msgpackz`, `to msgpackz` could also help - New commands: `plugin add`, `plugin rm` # Tests + Formatting Tests added for the format and for the invalid handling. - 🟢 `toolkit fmt` - 🟢 `toolkit clippy` - 🟢 `toolkit test` - 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib` # After Submitting - [ ] Check for documentation changes - [ ] Definitely needs release notes |

nu-cmd-lang
the base language and command crate of nu
The commands in this crate are the core commands of the nu language. It is also the base crate upon which all other command crates sit on top of including:
- nu-command
- nu-cli
- nu-cmd-dataframe
- nu-cmd-extra
As time goes on and the nu language develops further in parallel with nushell we will be adding other command crates to the system.
What does it mean to be a base crate ?
A base crate is one with minimal dependencies in our system so that other developers can come along and use this crate without having a lot of baggage in terms of other crates which will bloat their underlying application.
Background on nu-cmd-lang
This crate was designed to be a small, concise set of tools or commands that serve as the foundation layer of both nu and nushell. These are the core commands needed to have a nice working version of the nu language without all of the support that the other commands provide inside nushell. Prior to the launch of this crate all of our commands were housed in the crate nu-command. Moving forward we would like to slowly break out the commands in nu-command into different crates; the naming and how this will work and where all the commands will be located is a "work in progress" especially now that the standard library is starting to become more popular as a location for commands. As time goes on some of our commands written in rust will be migrated to nu and when this happens they will be moved into the standard library.
