  id: 'my-plugin',
  setup: ctx => {
    // This runs during Setup Phase
    console.log('Plugin setting up')

    // Add global options
    ctx.addGlobalOption('verbose', {
      type: 'boolean',
      description: 'Verbose output'
    })

    // Register sub-commands
    ctx.addCommand('plugin-cmd', {
      name: 'plugin-cmd',
      run: ctx => console.log('Plugin command')
    })

    // Add decorators (they stack in LIFO order)
    ctx.decorateCommand(baseRunner => async ctx => {
      console.log('Before command (from plugin)')

    // Use various plugin extensions
    ctx.extensions.logger.log('Command running')
    ctx.extensions.api.request('/users')

    console.log('=== Command execution ends ===')
  }
})

// Run with plugins in random order - Gunshi will resolve correct order
await cli(process.argv.slice(2), command, {
  plugins: [
    // Intentionally provide in wrong order
    api, // Depends on auth, metrics
    auth, // Depends on logger, cache
    metrics, // Depends on logger, optionally cache

```ts
// Simple usage - just arguments
type SimpleParams = GunshiParams<{
  args: { port: { type: 'number' } }
}>

// With extensions from plugins
type FullParams = GunshiParams<{
  args: { port: { type: 'number' } }
  extensions: { logger: Logger }
}>
```

--------------------------------

### Initialize CLI with Built-in Plugins

Source: https://gunshi.dev/guide/essentials/plugin-system

```js
import { cli, define } from 'gunshi'

const command = define({
  name: 'app',
  description: 'My CLI application',
  run: ctx => {
    console.log('Running application')
  }
})

await cli(process.argv.slice(2), command, {
  name: 'my-app',
  version: '1.0.0'
})
```

--------------------------------

### Detecting Multi-Way Circular Dependencies

Source: https://gunshi.dev/guide/plugin/dependencies

Example of a three-way circular dependency chain that prevents plugin initialization.

```javascript
import { plugin } from 'gunshi/plugin'

// Three-way circular dependency
const pluginX = plugin({
  id: 'X',
  dependencies: ['Y'],
  setup: ctx => {}
})

const pluginY = plugin({
  id: 'Y',
  dependencies: ['Z'],
  setup: ctx => {}
})

const pluginZ = plugin({
  id: 'Z',
  dependencies: ['X'], // Creates cycle: X → Y → Z → X
  setup: ctx => {}
})

// Circular dependency detected: `x -> y -> z -> x`
```

--------------------------------

### Viewing Customized CLI Output

Source: https://gunshi.dev/guide/plugin/decorators

    // Add sub-command
    ctx.addCommand('status', {
      name: 'status',
      run: ctx => console.log('Status: OK')
    })

    // Register decorators (LIFO order)
    ctx.decorateCommand(runner => async ctx => {
      console.log('5. Command decorator (before)')
      const result = await runner(ctx)
      console.log('7. Command decorator (after)')
      return result
    })

    console.log('2. Setup phase completed')
  },

  // Step H: Extension creation (during CommandContext creation)
  extension: (ctx, cmd) => {
    console.log('3. Extension created for:', cmd.name)

    return {
      demo: () => 'Hello from extension',
      cleanup: () => console.log('9. Extension cleanup')
    }
  },

  // Step H: Post-extension callback (immediately after extension creation)
  onExtension: (ctx, cmd) => {
    console.log('4. All extensions ready')
  }
})
```

--------------------------------

### Decorate renderers via plugin setup
