# get\_plugin\_registry

<div className="flex items-center gap-2">

</div>

> This function is defined in the [**plugins**](../modules/plugins) module.

Return a truthful, unified view of all discoverable plugins.

Combines three real sources — no hardcoded/fake entries:

* Entry-point plugins (installed pip packages registering in the
  `praisonai.plugins` group), reported with their `source` as their
  distribution/entry-point provenance.
* Registered `Plugin` instances held by the :class:`PluginManager`.
* Project/user single-file plugins discovered on disk (`.praisonai/plugins`
  and `~/.praisonai/plugins`), reported without executing them.

Each entry is a dict with `name`, `version`, `source`
(`entry_point` | `registered` | `single_file`), `enabled` state,
`hooks` and `description`. Enabled state reflects both the live manager
and the persisted config allow-list, so a truthful CLI can render it
without a running agent.
