Extensibility

Current extension points and what’s planned next.

Extensibility

Autopilot already exposes a few practical ways to extend it, even before a formal plugin system exists.

Current Extension Points

• JSON output from commands like status, doctor, and insights.
• Config-driven behavior in .autopilotrc.json.
• Command chaining through scripts, CI jobs, and Git hooks.
• Exportable analytics data in CSV or JSON.

Beyond Git Automation

You can already use Autopilot as part of a larger workflow:

• Pair it with CI checks.
• Feed exported stats into dashboards.
• Wrap commands in your own shell scripts.
• Use the docs site as a source of command references for tools and bots.

Plugin System

A formal plugin system is a roadmap item rather than a shipped feature.

If you want to experiment today, the safest path is to build around:

• Shell scripts.
• JSON outputs.
• Custom config files.
• Git hooks.

Future Direction

Likely areas for future extensibility include:

• Command plugins.
• Custom notifications.
• External dashboard integrations.
• Additional AI provider adapters.
