-To run the `boavista-cpu` plugin an instance of `BoaviztaCpuImpact` must be created using `BoaviztaCpuImpact()` and, if applicable, passing global configurations. Subsequently, the `execute()` function can be invoked to retrieve data on `carbon-embodied` and `cpu/energy`.

+## Example `manifest`
+
+In IF plugins are expected to be invoked from an `manifest` file. This is a yaml containing the plugin configuration and inputs. The following `manifest` initializes and runs the `boavizta-cloud` plugin:
+
+```yaml
+name: boavizta cloud demo

+tags:
+initialize:
+  plugins:
+    'boavizta-cloud':

+          cpu/utilization: 34
+```
+
+You can run this by passing it to `ie`. Run impact using the following command run from the project root:
+
+```sh
+npm i -g @grnsft/if
+npm i -g @grnsft/if-unofficial-plugins
+ie --manifest ./examples/manifests/test/boavizta-cloud.yml --output ./examples/outputs/boavizta-cloud.yml
