   Describe the bug
   A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

I’ve handled many Windows path–related issues in dify-plugin-daemon, and now plugins can be downloaded, compiled, and run properly. However, in the dify-plugin database, the declaration field in the plugin_declarations table has values, but the models field is [], which results in 0 models being displayed. I also deployed a set in Docker and copied the models content from there into the corresponding fields, which fixed the 0 models issue. Could this problem still be related to Windows paths?

[dosubot]

This issue is likely related to Windows path handling. The code treats backslashes (\) in file paths as path traversal attempts and may ignore or reject such paths, which can prevent model files from being discovered and loaded on Windows deployments. Make sure all paths in your manifest.yaml and referenced model files use forward slashes (/) instead of backslashes, and check for any invisible formatting or encoding issues (like BOM, CRLF line endings, or tabs) that could affect parsing. The manifest.yaml should list model files under plugins.models as a list of valid relative paths, e.g., models: [provider/xxx.yaml]—these files must exist in your plugin package and be accessible to the daemon. If the manifest or referenced files are missing, malformed, or incorrectly specified, the models field will remain empty, even if the declaration field is populated and no errors appear in the logs. You can find more details about manifest requirements and path handling here and here.
