 "title": "Iterate on a plugin without restarting the host",
 "page_title": "How to iterate on a plugin without restarting the host with Rutis",
 "summary": "Edit a TypeScript plugin and see the running host reload it on every file change.",
 "who": "A developer or coding agent building a connection to an API, model or tool, who needs quick feedback without restarting a long-running program.",
 "problem": "Each change to an integration usually means stopping and restarting the whole program, which slows iteration and risks leftover connections.",
 "outcome": "A plugin project that runs under a host which reloads it whenever its files change, with configuration updates applied live.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `npx @arcships/rutis-host new weather --lang node` to create the plugin project.",
  "Run `cd weather && npm install` to install dependencies.",
  "Run `npx rutis-host dev` and edit the plugin file; the host reloads it when files change."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the repo arcships/rutis, create a TypeScript plugin named <target> with `npx @arcships/rutis-host new <target> --lang node`, install it, and start it with `npx rutis-host dev`. Expected output: the host running the plugin and logging a reload after you change a file. Verify that the reload happens without restarting the host process.",
