This repository serves as the official, curated extension registry for the Aether Launcher.
Aether relies on this registry to populate its in-app Extension Gallery and assign cryptographic-style trust tiers to extensions, ensuring users know exactly what they are installing.
Every extension in this registry is assigned one of the following trust tiers:
- 🔵 Official: Developed and maintained directly by the Aether Team.
- 🟢 Verified: Personally reviewed by an Aether maintainer. The code has been thoroughly audited for security, performance, and stability.
- 🟣 Community: Passed automated checks and was merged into the registry via Pull Request, but has not received a manual code audit. Use with caution.
(Note: Extensions installed locally from .zip files rather than through this registry are marked as 🟡 Local by the launcher).
To publish an extension to this registry:
- Ensure your extension follows the Extensions Guide.
- Host your packaged
.ziprelease on GitHub Releases (or another direct-download host). - Open a Pull Request adding your extension metadata to
index.json.
By default, new submissions will receive the community trust tier until they can be manually audited for the verified tier.
