Steps

Confirm the bundled Plugin Manager plugin is enabled under Settings > Plugin Manager.
Trigger installation from the official OctoPrint Plugin Repository, a direct URL, or an uploaded archive.
Supported install artifacts are .zip/.tar.gz/.tgz/.tar/.gz/.whl (installed via pip), a single .py file (copied into ~/.octoprint/plugins), or a .json file containing an export or a list of install URLs.
Listen for the plugin_pluginmanager_install_plugin, _uninstall_plugin, _enable_plugin, and _disable_plugin events to confirm the outcome programmatically.

Known gotchas

OctoPrint's official REST API reference does not document a stable public HTTP endpoint for the Plugin Manager itself; installs are driven through the plugin's own web-UI logic rather than the documented /api/ surface.
Installing, uninstalling, or enabling/disabling a plugin frequently requires a full OctoPrint server restart, and some plugins additionally require reconnecting to the printer afterward.
