Is ExecutorPlugin deprecated? It's still used as an example in the docs and some of the plugin examples

[brokenjacobs]

But I can't find a reference to it in the API docs. It's very confusing.

See:
https://argo-workflows.readthedocs.io/en/latest/executor_plugins/
and "Next, create a manifest named plugin.yaml:"

It's unclear why this is needed. And there is no good documentation on what to put in your ConfigMap, or how (or if) it relates to this ExecutorPlugin kind.

not deprecated, the confusion is that ExecutorPlugin is not a CRD you apply directly. it is a build-time format. when you run argo executor-plugin build . it takes your plugin.yaml and spits out a ConfigMap which is what the controller actually loads. that is why you do not see it in the API reference, it never reaches the cluster as that kind. the controller finds plugins by listing ConfigMaps with the right label in either the workflow namespace or the argo install namespace.
