Dify version

1.11.1

Cloud or Self Hosted

Cloud

Steps to reproduce

Try to install plugin https://marketplace.dify.ai/plugins/hangboss1761/echarts_convert.

✔️ Expected Behavior

1. The plugin size is 38.3 MB，it is designed to be able to run offline, so some additional dependencies are packaged.
2. The dify-plugin cli package limt is 50 MB
3. I want to confirm what the upper limit of Cloud is, so as to determine how I should modify the implementation of the plugin. By the way, I'm the developer of the plugin.

❌ Actual Behavior

The limitations of the official packaging tool are inconsistent with those of the Dify platform.It is recommended to make them consistent so that plugin developers can clearly understand the constraints during the development process.

There isn't a clearly documented maximum plugin file size for Dify Cloud, but based on user reports and issue discussions, the enforced limit is below 38.3 MB as of version 1.11.1—even though the dify-plugin CLI allows packaging up to 50 MB. This discrepancy is why you're seeing the "Max file size reached" error when uploading your plugin, despite it being under the CLI limit.

For now, to ensure compatibility with Dify Cloud, keep plugin packages well below 38 MB, minimize bundled dependencies, or split functionality if possible. The CLI and platform limits are not always aligned, so it's a good idea to leave extra margin. For self-hosted deployments, you can adjust environment variables like PLUGIN_MAX_PACKAGE_SIZE and NGINX_CLIENT_MAX_BODY_SIZE, but these aren't available on Dify Cloud. It would be helpful for the Dify team to clarify and document the cloud limit and align it with the CLI for developer clarity.

References:

• Evidence of platform limit below CLI limit and configuration options for self-hosted
• No explicit size limit found in backend code or recent PRs

The size of the extracted plugin should be less than 50mb.

The size of the extracted plugin should be less than 50mb.

Plugin size is 38 MB ,you can see its size here: https://github.com/hangboss1761/echarts-convert-dify-plugin/releases/tag/v0.0.1

Maybe there is an issue of inconsistent system configurations?

Perhaps we need to adjust the official configuration so that dify-api and dify-plugin-daemon have consistent configurations, enabling this plugin to be installed normally?
