Alessandro 58b161e5d3 docs: make Agent Zero guides more human
Refresh README, quickstart, and the docs index around Browser, Desktop, A0 CLI, projects, memory, skills, profiles, and model presets.

Add optimized scoped screenshots for Web UI, Browser, Desktop, and CLI workflows.

Trim architecture-heavy developer pages toward DeepWiki handoffs so local docs stay focused on practical user guidance.

# Plugins
Most people should start with the practical guide:
[Create a Small Plugin](../guides/create-plugin.md).
Plugin architecture and source-linked internals live in
[DeepWiki for Agent Zero](https://deepwiki.com/agent0ai/agent-zero). This page
stays intentionally small so the repository does not maintain a second plugin
manual.
## What To Use
| Goal | Start here |
| --- | --- |
| Build your first plugin | [Create a Small Plugin](../guides/create-plugin.md) |
| Understand how plugins are loaded | [DeepWiki](https://deepwiki.com/agent0ai/agent-zero) |
| Decide what is safe to publish | [Sharing and Safety](sharing-and-safety.md) |
| Contribute a plugin upstream | [Contributing Guide](../guides/contribution.md) |
## Minimum Local Plugin
A local plugin usually lives here:
```text
/a0/usr/plugins/<plugin_name>/
├── plugin.yaml
├── README.md
└── webui/
```
The smallest useful `plugin.yaml` looks like this:
```yaml
name: my_plugin
title: My Plugin
description: A short sentence that explains what it does.
version: 1.0.0
```
Ask Agent Zero to keep the first version small. A tiny plugin that does one
visible thing is easier to test, review, and share.
## Sharing A Plugin
Before publishing a plugin:
- keep it in its own public repository;
- include a clear `README.md`;
- include a `LICENSE`;
- avoid secrets, local paths, and machine-specific files;
- explain what the plugin changes and how to remove it.
For Plugin Index submission, use the current instructions in the
[`agent0ai/a0-plugins`](https://github.com/agent0ai/a0-plugins) repository.
