Thanks for that clarification! If you are shipping the plugin with the configs embedded inside the JAR rather than generating them in a folder on the disk, we should make that a highlight of the "Simplicity" factor.
Here is the final, polished BuildByBit description reflecting the 1.21.11 version and the unique internal file structure:
True Plug-and-Play: Unlike other plugins that clutter your /plugins folder with endless files, GiosCombat is a self-contained solution. All configurations are embedded directly within the JAR, making it the cleanest drop-in combat tagger available.
