# Extending guides

Use these guides when extending calibrated explanations with new plugins, CLI
surfaces, or configuration toggles.

## Build and ship plugins

- {doc}`../../plugin-contract` – Canonical contract before implementing
  additional guides.
- {doc}`../../../foundations/how-to/integrate_with_pipelines` – Integration
  checkpoints for end-to-end validation.

## Document configuration and CLI surfaces

- {doc}`../../../foundations/how-to/configure_telemetry` – Required references
  when exposing telemetry toggles.
- {doc}`../../../foundations/governance/nav_crosswalk` – Navigation map to keep
  documentation updates in sync.
- {doc}`../../../foundations/reference/api` – API reference for docstring
  cross-links.
