+## Description
+
+<!-- SECTION:DESCRIPTION:BEGIN -->
+Break plugin/subminer.lua into smaller Lua modules under mpv scripts subdirectory while preserving user-visible behavior and keybindings. Include migration + docs updates for install paths and smoke/regression checks.
+<!-- SECTION:DESCRIPTION:END -->
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+<!-- AC:BEGIN -->
+- [ ] #1 Plugin entrypoint stays at scripts/subminer.lua and loads modules from scripts/subminer/
+- [ ] #2 No behavior change for keybindings, script messages, auto-start, AniSkip, hover highlight
+- [ ] #3 Install/docs updated for recursive plugin copy
+- [ ] #4 Add or update regression checks for start/stop + module loading
+<!-- AC:END -->
