Add deck-progress-tracker to Plugin Store

Deck Progress Tracker is a Decky Loader plugin that tracks your gaming progress across your Steam library. It automatically categorizes games by completion status (Not Started, In Progress, Completed) using playtime data and HowLongToBeat integration. It provides a dashboard with progress stats and filtering accessible from the Quick Access Menu.

We really do appreciate the extensive reviews, however, for the future, don't submit reviews for plugins that aren't already deployed to the testing store, as there may be further changes from the author before the plugin is finalized and thus the review becomes moot.

If when you submit your PR there aren't any plugins on the testing store to test, don't feel like you have to then go and test some non-approved ones.

[beebls]

It looks like your PR is attempting to modify deck-progress-tracker and GamesPrefixManager, can you rebase onto latest main so that your plugin is the only change

[beebls]

Plugin code itself looks good, however most commits are co-authored by Claude.

There's nothing inherently wrong about AI codegen, I just need to ask a couple clarifying questions to you.

1. To what extent was AI used when creating the plugin (was all or nearly all code authored by AI), this matters for copyright purposes, where we need to know that you can claim copyright to the code in your repo.

2. Was the decky/steam specific code double-checked to ensure all interfaces and methods actually exist? We have had a lot of cases where AI can hallucinate SteamClient methods or VDF components and it can lead to plugins that don't function.

Lastly, it appears that your plugin is based off of the decky plugin template, but yours is MIT licensed whereas the plugin template is BSD licensed, you'll need to change your license to reflect this.

[maroun2]

Thanks for the review!

AI usage: Claude helped me mostly with commit messages and as a coding assistant. But look at the commit history — this wasn't some one-shot vibe-coded thing. It took weeks of work, especially getting game discovery to work for all 800+ owned games, not just installed ones. That alone was painful. And I cleaned up the history before going public, so you're not even seeing all of it. This is my work and I can claim copyright.

Steam/Decky APIs: All Decky imports are verified against the actual installed packages. The undocumented Steam frontend stuff — app store, achievement cache, client APIs — all validated through testing on my actual Steam Deck. I also built fallback chains for these APIs because they don't always behave the same way. That came from real debugging sessions, not guesswork.

License: Fixed — changed to BSD-3-Clause in 1.3.5.

Testing store: Sorry about that — I'm new to the submission process and didn't know about the testing store workflow. Will follow the correct process going forward.

PR is rebased onto latest main with only my plugin.

• Your license is still non-compliant. Please see the LICENSE file from decky-plugin-template and note how you need to cite us as the original authors of the plugin template.
• Your PR is not rebased onto main. You're still attempting to build two other plugins.

[maroun2]

I hope this time is right.

Rebased onto latest main — PR now only modifies .gitmodules and plugins/deck-progress-tracker.

License updated to BSD-3-Clause with Steam Deck Homebrew attribution.

CI is now building only deck-progress-tracker.

[EMERALD0874]

LGTM for testing

[EMERALD0874]

Please review the pipeline failure.

[maroun2]

I believe this is fixed now — rebased onto latest main with the build issue resolved and license updated. However, it seems the CI can only be approved by a maintainer, so I can't verify the fix myself. Could you approve the workflow run so we can confirm?

[beebls]

Looks like the CI is still failing, seemingly you do not have a pnpm lockfile

[maroun2]

@beebls lockfile added, can you run the checks please?

[maroun2]

@Managor or anyone with free time. Can you please test my plugin? It is finally in the testing store.

Has the following minor non-blocking issue(s):

• The progress tracker badge on game info view overlaps with player count and isn't visible
• The badge on the game info view isn't navigable on by a controller
• Tapping on the badge to open the progress view doesn't push a new entry to the history stack. Pressing B will take you out of the game info view instead of just closing the progress view
• Scrolling all the way down and then back all the way up in the QAM view doesn re-reveal the Library (X games) label

Summary

The core functionality of the plugin seems to be working with only minor annoyances.

[maroun2]

Thank you for the test! @Managor

@beebls Should I fix the issues now? Or can we leave it to next version?
I was hoping to get out MVP.

Entirely up to you, if you think the plugin is good enough to release as is, then give me the word and I'll release it, but if you want to make a change you can, you'll just need to get another review on that newer version after we approve it

[maroun2]

Lets release it please. All the issues are valid, but instead of buttons the touchscreen can be used. I will fix it in the future versions.
