<p dir="auto">I am developing a Windy plugin and have a few questions regarding official limits, data availability, and best practices.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>1. Technical limits (clarification needed)</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemIs there an official maximum file size for a plugin bundle? (Some community members reported HTTP 500 errors above ~2.7 MB during publishing – is this still relevant?)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemWhat is the exact localStorage quota for plugins running on <a href="http://windy.com" rel="nofollow ugc">windy.com</a> domain? (I've heard 5-10 MB – is this correct?)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemWhat is the official API rate limit? (Community says 3 requests per second – is that enforced?)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemOnly one right‑hand pane (rhpane) plugin can be open at a time. Is this a hard limit or can it be changed?</p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemAre there any other hidden limits or mandatory requirements that we should be aware of?</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto"><strong>2. Can we access lightning data and polarity information?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemIs it possible to retrieve lightning strike data from Windy? Specifically, location, type (cloud‑to‑cloud / cloud‑to‑ground), and polarity (positive/negative)?</p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemIs there a dedicated API or layer for lightning data, or is it only available as a visual overlay?</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto"><strong>3. Feedback on the attached windy_plugin_skill.md document</strong>   <a href="https://github.com/murathany90/windy-plugin-wind-solar-power-forecast/blob/63366227b7a19716ec619a9bdb0da9ce5bbf5a9b/windy_plugin_skill.md" rel="nofollow ugc">github link</a></p>
<ul>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemI have prepared a developer skill document for AI/IDE agents (attached). Could you review it and suggest any missing topics, recent constraints, or best practices?</p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto">list itemAre there any APIs or patterns that are currently deprecated or not recommended?</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">Thank you for your support. I look forward to your answers.</p>
