I am curious what was the request asking for it . Note that justin seems to be actively trying to remove remote plugins so maybe this could have been a RocksPostSync hook instead.

There wasn't a request. I just realised that remote plugins are still a thing and they typically tell people to put build = ':UpdateRemotePlugins' in their install instructions.
Since the command only needs to be run once after install/update/sync, it doesn't have a significant impact on performance and I see no harm in adding it.

yes it's a good idea but I saw you were going to release rocks.nvim and I thought I would suggest a more generic event (thought not sure how one would use a PostSync event, maybe to rebuild stuff) that could survive a breaking change.

I think user events could be a good idea.
rocks.nvim extensions could hook into them too.
We could also have events for RocksFooCachePopulated or RocksFooCacheUpdated, which might be useful for rocks-edit.nvim.

Let's create an issue for it and collect ideas.
