+`metadata.yml` is an optional file which describes what account types are allowed, which formats are supported, etc.
+
+Here's an example:
+```yaml
+name: "🖼️ Template name"
+extends: classic  # Fallback to "classic" template "template.mjs" if not trusted
+index: ~          # Leave as it (this is used to order plugins on metrics README.md)

+  - markdown      # Support markdown output
+  - markdown-pdf  # Support PDF output
+```
+
+Core plugin will automatically check whether template supports given account or repository and output format and will throw an error in case they aren't compatible.
