I have yet to build Datasette plugin and am unfamiliar with Pluggy. Since browsers have event handling builtin Datasette could communicate with plugins through it. Handlers register as listeners for custom Datasette events and Datasette's JS can then trigger said events.

I was also wondering if you had looked at Javascript Modules for JS plugins? With services like Skypack (https://www.skypack.dev) NPM libraries can be loaded directly into browser, no build step needed. Same goes for local JS if you adhere to ES Module spec.

If minification is required then tools such as Snowpack (https://www.snowpack.dev) could fit better. It uses https://github.com/evanw/esbuild for bundling and minification.

On plugins you'd simply:

javascript import {register} from '/assets/js/datasette' register.on({'click' : my_func})

In Datasette HTML pages' head you'd merely import these files as modules one by one.
