Welcome @timberners!

I assume, this post is related with this GitHub issue #1821?

If not, read it anyway. What is tried to explain there, is, that there is not more documentation as already found and linked there.
So the best way is to have a look at the existing plugins, read and understand the source code. There are various plugins, which show most, if not all possibilities of the plugin interface.
Understanding the functionality and code of existing plugins should then help for developing new plugins.

I have the feeling, that your request is related with PCBWay. Is this true?
I'm in contact with them and I already communicated, that I can add their requested functionality. The LibreCAD plugin interface is probably not the right way to implement it, probably it's even not possible with our plugin interface. So my estimation is, it should be added to the application direct.

Otherwise, tell us something about your plans for the plugin, then we can probably give more detailed advise and support.
