Let’s build something magical ✨

Template Update: Plugin-Specific Forms

🔧 v0.1.1 — Template Update: Plugin-Specific Forms

✍️ A small but mighty update to improve how contributors interact with this repo.

---

✨ What’s Changed?

• 🔄 Refined PR & Issue Templates
  The contribution workflow has been updated to reflect this repo’s plugin-specific nature, instead of the broader VaultOS structure.

🔍 Changes include:

• Updated issue form titles and prompts to refer directly to “plugin” instead of “vault”
• Clarified bug report and feature request guidance for single-purpose plugin contexts
• Improved readability and flow for contributors submitting PRs

---

🚀 Why it Matters

Better templates = better contributions.
By tailoring the wording and structure to fit plugin development, we ensure clarity for devs, collaborators, and curious users alike.
