Bundled Plugin Catalog
DevPortal 3.x enables 18 digest-pinned OCI plugins by default. They come from the catalog index's default plugin file (dynamic-plugins.default.yaml) and install without any entry in your values. The index also lists the stock Red Hat home page, disabled, and the legacy VeeCode theme is not a default. The production setup guide lists the same set from the install side.

To turn off an enabled default plugin, add an override entry with the {{inherit}} tag and the full !<plugin path> part, plus disabled: true, as described in Adding Plugins. Each plugin page below gives the override reference.
Plugins that moved to Marketplace
These pages from the 2.x bundled set are not default plugins in 3.x. They install from Marketplace or through a plugin entry:
- Azure DevOps: Marketplace plugin
azure-devops. - GitHub Actions: Marketplace plugin
github-actions. - Jenkins: Marketplace plugin
backstage-community-plugin-jenkins.
For plugins not listed here (Grafana, SonarQube, Kubernetes, and others), see Finding Plugins and Adding Plugins. Grafana is an installable package in the default plugin index but has no Marketplace card: enable it with a plugin entry and set grafana.domain before the portal starts. The Vault plugin is not available in 3.x at all; see Backstage Plugins.
