I have great news! I’ve just [merged](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/28350) this new rake task into core:

```sh
rake plugin:create[name]

```

It works similarly to the gem, but it does not push to GitHub, giving you the choice of what to do–precisely like `discourse_theme new`

I’ll tag this gem as deprecated, as we have a more _official_ solution
