+        Thanks for submitting a public external plugin.
+
+        Before you continue:
+        - Public submissions are **GitHub-only** in v1.
+        - The plugin must live in a **public GitHub repository**.
+        - Use an **immutable ref** for review: a release tag or full 40-character commit SHA.
+        - Do **not** open a PR that edits `plugins/external.json` directly.
