External libraries

Some plugins need Python libraries that MiAZ does not ship, for example the AI providers of the AI Assistant. MiAZ installs them in a private environment in your home folder (~/.MiAZ/opt/venv), never into the system Python.

Action Does
Install / Update downloads and installs the libraries the enabled plugins ask for
Remove deletes them

The row lists each installed library and the plugins that need it.
