+## Examples for common field types in metadata.json
+
+1. string - Single-line text
+
+-Use for free-form text inputs such as hostnames, domain names, file paths, or any
+value that does not fit a more specific type.
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "target",
+  "label": "Root Domain",
+  "type": "string",
+  "required": true,
+  "placeholder": "example.com"
+}
+```
+
+2. url - URL
+
+-Use when the field expects a well-formed URL (a complete target url).
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "target_url",
+  "label": "Target URL",
+  "type": "url",
+  "required": true,
+  "placeholder": "https://example.com"
+}
+```
+
+3. select - Single-choice dropdown
+
+- Use when user must choose a predefined option or say exactly one value from a fixed list.
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "scan_depth",
+  "label": "Scan Depth",
+  "type": "select",
+  "required": true,
+  "options": ["shallow", "normal", "deep"],
+  "default": "normal"
+}
+```
+4. boolean - Toggle/checkbox
+
+-Use boolean fields for true/false configuration options.
+-Always provide a default of true or false.

+  "type": "boolean",
+  "required": false,
+  "default": false
+}
+```
+5. number - Numeric input
+
+-Use for numeric limits, thresholds or timeout values.
+-Use min and max to constrain the accepted range (both bounds are inclusive).
+-The backend will reject values outside the declared range.
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "timeout",
+  "label": "Timeout (seconds)",
+  "type": "number",
+  "required": false,
+  "default": 30,
+  "min": 1,

+}
+```
+
+6. multiselect - Multi-choice selection
+

+{
+  "id": "output_formats",
+  "label": "Output Formats",
+  "type": "multiselect",
+  "required": false,
+  "options": ["json", "csv", "txt"],
+  "default": ["json"]
+}
+```

 ## Maintenance Notes
 
 - If a plugin is added, renamed, or removed, update this file from the plugin metadata rather than editing counts by hand.
