What variant of Codex are you using?

App, IDE Extension, CLI

What feature would you like to see?

A plugin dependency system where a plugin can depend on other plugins. Installing the parent plugin would first install all the dependent plugins.

Additional information

Background

I use some plugins, skills, mcp servers in my day to day work. I am trying to encapsulate them all to create my own "setup" plugin which can be a one click solution to setup my stack on a vanilla codex installation. But to be a real one click stack setup plugin it needs to have the capability to install other plugins(that I use) as well.

Example

for example, if my setup plugin depends on the famous superpowers plugin. then installing the setup plugin will first install the superpowers plugin and then install itself. the end result is that both plugins are available after installing only one.
