A plugin is the way to add actions to an existing KParts application, or to a Part.

The XML of those plugins looks exactly like of the shell or parts, with one small difference: The document tag should have an additional attribute, named "library", and contain the name of the library implementing the plugin.

If you want this plugin to be used by a part, you need to install the rc file under the directory "data" (KDEDIR/share/apps usually)+"/instancename/kpartplugins/" where instancename is the name of the part's instance.

You should also install a "plugin info" .desktop file with the same name.
