Copier pulled jinja2-ansible-filters (GPL-licensed). Cookiecutter is a
simpler, widely-adopted alternative with no problematic transitive deps.
- Migrate all 4 template sets (Go server, Python server, native plugin,
external plugin) from copier YAML configs to cookiecutter.json with
{{cookiecutter.*}} directory conventions
- Update mcpplugins CLI to use cookiecutter.main.cookiecutter() API,
add --template_type flag to select native/external plugin templates
- Replace copier>=9.11.3 with cookiecutter>=2.6.0 in pyproject.toml
and tox.ini
- Update scaffold shell scripts to invoke cookiecutter CLI
- Update tests, AGENTS.md, llms docs, and roadmap
Closes #2361

Template files containing Jinja2 syntax ({{ cookiecutter.* }}, {% set %})
are invalid YAML/TOML/Python from linters' perspective. Add plugin_templates/
to the global exclude in both pre-commit configs and yamllint. Also restore
executable bit on run-server.sh and update uv.lock.

Template go.mod and pyproject.toml contain Jinja2 variables that are invalid from the perspective of Go tooling and TOML parsers. Skip template directories in gosec, govulncheck, and tomllint find commands. Signed-off-by: Mihai Criveti <crivetimihai@gmail.com>
The lint.yml workflow runs tomlcheck directly via find, not through the Makefile target. Add the same template directory exclusions. Signed-off-by: Mihai Criveti <crivetimihai@gmail.com>
