-Plugins
-=======
-
-Plugins are the source of all logic used in building a config. They can perform one of several tasks:
-
-#. Generating configuration inventory lists for clients
-#. Generating configuration entry contents for clients
-#. Probing client-side state (like hardware inventory, etc) -- the generic client probing mechanism is described at :ref:`plugins-probes`.
-#. Automating administrative tasks (e.g. :ref:`plugins-generators-sshbase` which automates ssh key management)
-#. Generating client per-entry installation decision-lists
-
