GitHub user priyanahata added a comment to the discussion: Can a plugin 
verification be lost. I mean once a version is verified can it become 
unverified?

Thanks @neilcsmith-net 
here to serve
I'll take a look

The main pain i see in the plugin portal, is that if i do "refresh" it 
automatically brings in every single version from maven central.

The other thing that i thought yesterday would be to a have like a plugin or an 
update center kind of thing that just says:
install from central "at your own risk". so the guy just does a maven search in 
some gui inside of netbeans and off you go.

Sorry for breaking your balls too much. I was trying to be careful to only do 
"request for verification" like every two weeks or so. but yeah, its a pain and 
makes a mess in the plugin portal

I was following this pattern basically: A user reports an issue, a roll out an 
patch update "as fast as i can" and i point him to the experimental update 
center, but yeah, i get your point. I am sure that guys have better things to 
do than verifying the anahata plugin every week or every two weeks specially 
considering that it takes two people.

The other thing i am super interested in (something we used to do for 
commercial desktop app deployments (not netbeans based, that was webstart + 
javafx) is to autoupdate like, to have something in the plugin that "checks for 
updates" and prints a link on the plugins ui itself saying: An update is 
available, update now.

We dont have many strange maven deps today but if a CVE gets reported on a 
maven dep. I'd like the users to do one click updates. I havent looked into the 
netbeans apis for installing / updating modules. Just an idea.

LLMs need to be treated with care, its risky by nature allowing an LLM to do 
any shell (even without root) and full unrestricted LLM genearated java code 
execution with whatever classpath it wants on the very netbeans JVM

Not everybody would be happy to give an LLM that type of control but the type 
of people that do want to give that kind of power to an LLM would want quick 
updates if there is CVE in a maven dep (like commons-lang) for example. 

The other day, i saw one on commons-lang for example. You know like, if someone 
is using the plugin and vulnerability in any of the dependencies gets reported. 
You would just want to fix it as quick as possible.

What does netbeans do like if a CVE appears in a nb-library lets say like the 
flexmark-all or the jsoup java-source-ui uses to parse the javadoc

Super interested in the security topic also because now in v2 I am even adding 
selenium and stuff like that for the agent to do your web browsing, fill in 
forms, stuff like that.

Thanks for the feebdack guys, i have a discord an google messages if you are up 
for a chat
