I am not aware of an existing plugin for pushing helm charts to ecr (is that what you are looking for?) however, there are existing helm plugins in our plugin registry. If you are unable to find a suitable plugin you always have the option to create a custom plugin (see [docs.drone.io/plugins/overview](https://docs.drone.io/plugins/overview/)) or you could just add a step to your pipeline that executes the necessary [shell commands](https://docs.drone.io/pipeline/docker/syntax/steps/#commands).

yes, a plugin is just a docker image (from any compliant docker registry, including dockerhub) where the container entrypoint performs a pre-defined task. here are some useful links:
