Drive CLI Agent Orchestrator multi-agent sessions from any Agent-Plugins-compatible client. Prerequisites: the uv toolchain must be on PATH (the MCP server is launched via uvx), and a CAO API server must be running locally at http://127.0.0.1:9889 (cao-server). All communication is localhost-only.

This file is generated by scripts/build_agent_plugin.py. Edit the package
configuration in that script, not this file; make check-agent-plugin fails on
any hand edit.
2.5.0
Targets the Agent Plugins 1.0.0 specification. Version is synced from CAO's own package metadata, so the plugin and the CAO release it corresponds to cannot diverge.

Excluded: cao-provider and the event-plugin authoring skill (both moved to cao-contributor, where they serve the contributor story); cao-memory, cao-learning, cao-workflow (useful, but they expand the surface before the delivery path is proven); skills/vendor/ext-apps/* (Apache-2.0 vendored content with its own NOTICE attribution obligations, which redistributing in a second package would multiply for no benefit); agui-author, cao-mcp-apps, mcp-apps-builder (adjacent features with their own consumers).
