Expose interface for third party integrations #18

We need some sort of interface for communication between third party apps and comet in order to communicate updates like achievements, useful for external overlays.

[ ] Expose an interface from Comet
[ ] Develop Decky Loader plugin as an example integration

After noticing this mentioned in the new README - are there any concrete plans for this feature yet?

Such as with what type of interface?

I'd personally suggest:

A websocket stream of data to broadcast an accessible stream to any app including a Decky Loader plugin to hook into.
- Seems the best "real time" solution that doesn't need excessive polling compared to a HTTP API server in the background, requiring apps to poll it every second.

Indeed separate TCP socket seems like the best cross-platform approach.
