my-malbox-plugin

A malbox plugin template for Rust.

Prerequisites

• Rust (stable toolchain)

Getting started

1. Click Use this template on GitHub to create your own repository.
2. Rename your plugin in Cargo.toml (the name field) and plugin.toml (the [plugin] section).
3. Build:

cargo build

Project structure

File	Purpose
Cargo.toml	Rust package configuration and dependencies
src/main.rs	Plugin implementation
plugin.toml	Plugin metadata, runtime config, and result declarations
build.rs	Watches plugin.toml for changes

Switching to a host plugin

By default this template creates a guest plugin (runs inside the analysis VM). To create a host plugin (runs on the host machine):

1. In Cargo.toml, change features = ["guest"] to features = ["host"]
2. In src/main.rs, change #[malbox::guest_plugin] to #[malbox::host_plugin]
3. In plugin.toml, change type = "guest" to type = "host"
