 > [!TIP]
 > Make sure you move all of your plugins to `$MAKESHIFT_ROOT/plugins` to use them and should have an `*.so` name for lookup. For example, to use a custom plugin with `makeshift download -p templates/hosts.j2 --plugins my-plugin`, there has to a plugin `$MAKESHIFT_ROOT/plugins/my-plugin.so`.
 
+### Built-in Plugins
+
+There is a collection of built-in plugins that can be compiled using the helper script in `bin/compile-plugins.so` and saved to `$MAKESHIFT_ROOT/plugins`.
+
+See the README for [`jinja`](pkg/plugins/jinja2/README.md) and [`smd`](pkg/plugins/smd/README.md) for more details.

 ## Creating Profiles
 
 On the other hand, profiles are simply objects that contain data used to populate data stores. The `makeshift` tool does not currently use all fields of a profile which will likely be removed in the near future.
