March 2026 monthly summary for linuxdeepin/dde-shell: Delivered comprehensive plugin development documentation and multilingual support to accelerate the plugin ecosystem, improve onboarding, and enhance self-review usability; establishing a strong foundation for future plugin development and ongoing maintainability.

Monthly summary for 2025-08 focused on delivering terminal tooling improvements in the alephpiece/cherry-studio project and fixing terminal-related issues that affected Chinese text rendering. Implemented Deepin Terminal recognition and configuration in CodeToolsService to ensure deepin-terminal is correctly identified and used, replacing problematic fallback to xterm. The change is captured in the commit 82404936859035fbf7e2a47e8af71a2f119ad312 with messages around not using the system default terminal on deepin and adding support for deepin-terminal. Impact: Enhanced reliability and developer experience across Linux environments, reducing compatibility issues and supporting Chinese character rendering in terminal-based tooling. Aligns with ongoing emphasis on cross-distro compatibility and robust CI/tests for terminal configurations. Technologies/skills demonstrated: terminal detection/configuration logic, Linux terminal list management, codetool integration, code tooling improvements, and release-quality commits.
