CLI Plugin to Enhance Your Cloud
summary
Cloud Foundry adds an extensible CLI plugin framework implemented as Go binary programs that implement three simple methods; plugins like CF stack changer automate mass stack upgrades (used to migrate potentially hundreds to thousands of apps) and v3 CLI plugin exposes evolving V3 Cloud Controller endpoints without hand‑rolled curl scripts. A separate plugin repository server (also Go) hosts and distributes binaries, can run standalone or on CF, and supports private repos and auth; command override is not supported today.
