This plugin will allow players to change skin for items in easiest way. Just type skin command, move item to container and move back with skin.

WARNING! READ FIRST (FAQ)

• Plugin does NOT add skins automatically. You have to add them to configuration yourself or with API / help of another plugin.
• Stack Extended may break the plugin. For example, when you have custom stack on an item that is used by Skins.
• Plugin only sends a number of the skin to the client. If your client doesn't load skins but items appear, that means that it's the Rust client (your) issue. Could be anything from Steam to your download speeds and Rust issues.
• Skins are not stored on the server. Only the IDs (numbers from config).
• Download Timed Out. Try to set graphics.itemskintimeout to something like 300 and it should fix all your problems with it, else most likely a Steam issue.

Permissions

• skins.use - Permission for basic plugin usage. (Opening the box to change skins)
• skins.admin - Permission for advanced admin-only plugin usage. (Add or remove skins)

Commands

• skin - Main and the only command of the plugin. Can be changed in configuration. Syntax:

skin show - Show skins
skin get - Get Skin ID of the item
skin purgecache (shortname) - Purge skins cache by shortname (or empty to purge all)
skin remove (Shortname) (Skin ID) - Remove a skin
skin add (Shortname) (Skin ID) - Add a skin

Additional comments

In case you want to close skinbox and deny opening it, first close the box with API call. Only then return false in CanUseSkins, because if you close the box AFTER you start returning false in CanUseSkins, you can achieve unstable behaviour.
