Ensure all plugin configurations follow a consistent, structured format across the codebase to improve maintainability and user experience. Different plugins and features should not use ad-hoc configuration styles that make the system fragmented and difficult to understand.

Key principles:

  1. Consistent parameter structure: Use structured YAML/JSON objects instead of string-based or mixed formats
  2. Unified configuration style: Follow established patterns from existing plugins like binpack
  3. Formal API definitions: Define configuration parameters as proper API structures rather than informal argument lists

Example of good practice:

# Structured configuration approach
- name: resource-strategy-fit
  arguments:
    resourceStrategyFitWeight: 10
    resources:
      nvidia.com/gpu:
        type: MostAllocated
        weight: 2
      cpu:
        type: LeastAllocated
        weight: 1

Example of what to avoid:

# Ad-hoc string-based configuration
arguments:
  reserve.nodeLabel: label1,label2
  reserve.define.label1: {"business_type": "ebook"}

Better alternative:

# Structured alternative
arguments:
  reserveLabels:
  - nodeSelector:
      business_type: ebook
    startHour: 3
    endHour: 4
    resources:
      cpu: 32
      memory: 64

This standardization reduces cognitive load for users, simplifies validation, and makes the configuration system more maintainable as new features are added.
