Tips for Scoop (Extras bucket)

  • Open an issue and wait for a maintainer to agree before sending the pull request; the guide says they are very reluctant to take pull requests without one.
  • Write the manifest with a valid SPDX license, a download URL and hash in the architecture field, and a checkver/autoupdate setup. Test install, uninstall and persistence yourself.
  • After opening the pull request, comment /verify to start the automatic manifest verifier. New manifests are titled '<app name>: Add version <version>'.
  • Portable configuration (using persist) is highly preferred.

From Scoop (Extras bucket)’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.

What to prepare

The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for plugin and template marketplaces.

  • Product name and a one-line tagline (about 60 characters)
  • A short description (1–2 sentences) and a longer one (a short paragraph)
  • Square logo, at least 256×256 px, PNG or SVG
  • 2–3 screenshots at a consistent size
  • The exact page you want the link to point to
  • Pricing model (free, freemium or paid) and a contact email
  • A build that passes the platform’s own review rules (read them first)
  • Screenshots taken inside the host platform, showing your add-on in use
  • Support and documentation links, and a changelog if you have one
  • Pricing in the marketplace’s format, and its revenue share if it takes one

Is Scoop (Extras bucket) worth it?

We couldn’t verify the link

We didn’t find a live listing we could inspect, so we don’t know whether Scoop (Extras bucket) links are followed. Judge it on audience and effort, and check your own listing’s link once it’s live.

  • Domain Rating by Ahrefs: 78 (very strong). That's the strength of links to the whole site, not a promise about what your listing passes on.
  • No Tranco rank on record, so we can’t say how much traffic it gets.
  • A person reviews submissions, so expect a wait and a real quality bar.
  • Free to list, so the only cost is your time.

This verdict is worked out from the facts above with fixed rules (link type, review, price, Domain Rating by Ahrefs, Tranco rank), not paid for. The directory has no say in it.
