What issue are you seeing?

When I open Codex App > Plugins > Manage and try to copy the share link for my personal plugin, the app shows an error toast and no link is copied.

The error toast says:

"Couldn't copy share link
discoverability and shareTargets are only supported when creating a plugin share; use plugin/share/updateTargets to update share settings"

This is confusing from the user interface because the menu exposes a "Copy link" action, but clicking it fails with an internal/API-style error message. I expected the app either to copy a shareable link successfully, or to guide me through whatever share setup is required before the link can be copied.

The issue happens from the plugin row context menu under Manage > Plugins. The plugin appears as enabled and owned by me.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Open the Codex App.
  2. Go to Plugins.
  3. Open Manage.
  4. Find a personal plugin owned by the current user.
  5. Open the plugin row context menu.
  6. Click "Copy link".
  7. Observe that no link is copied and an error toast appears.

Actual result:
The app shows:

"Couldn't copy share link
discoverability and shareTargets are only supported when creating a plugin share; use plugin/share/updateTargets to update share settings"

What is the expected behavior?

The share link should be copied successfully, or the UI should explain that the plugin must be shared/configured first and provide a way to complete that setup.
