You have explored how metaclasses can register plugins by collecting subclasses into a registry, as well as how to enforce that certain required methods are present in class definitions. These two patterns are often combined in real-world plugin systems: you want to both track all available plugin classes and guarantee that each plugin implements a required API, such as a `run` method. Now you will bring these ideas together by writing a metaclass that both registers plugins and enforces that every plugin defines a `run` method.
