One question : Is it necessary to create a Gradle plugin to integrate with a Kotlin compiler plugin ? What exactly does the Gradle plugin aid in ?

You can apply a compiler plugin without the Gradle plugin but the gradle plugin makes consuming your compiler plugin easier as configuring a gradle plugin is easy and typed, and you parse later those parameters as strings to your compiler plugin arguments somehow you want

Ok , so all I need to connect KotlinCompilerPluginSupportPlugin and my plugin is to override getCompilerPluginId() ? Or i also need to set the ComponentRegistrars and CommandLineProcessors on KotlinCompilation in

override fun applyToCompilation(
    kotlinCompilation: KotlinCompilation<*>
  ): Provider<List<SubpluginOption>>

I recommend checking arrow-analysis repo on GitHub
