The Stratos Plugin SDK (@skyvexsoftware/stratos-sdk) provides everything you need to build plugins for Stratos: types, React hooks, UI components, Vite build config, and dev server auto-connect.

​
Quick Start

pnpx create-stratos-plugin
cd my-plugin
pnpm install
pnpm dev        # starts the dev server — auto-connects to Stratos
Make sure Stratos is running with developer mode enabled (--dev flag). Your plugin auto-connects and appears in the sidebar with live reload on save. See the Getting Started guide for the full walkthrough.

​

pnpm add @skyvexsoftware/stratos-sdk
