I answered this over PM, but copying here for the record:

If you include a file in the same directory, with the same filename as your JSFX, plus an extra ".rpl", REAPER will pre-load those plugins. E.g. if your effect is called "my-effect.jsfx", your preset file should be "my-effect.jsfx.rpl" (both extensions) installed in the same directory.

Here's the post where Justin explained it.

Standard warning here about versioning complications. Probably fine if your package is guaranteed to never deprecate an API, or require an additional setup step/argument.

I ended up with all of my effects installing separate copies of any shared resources in their own package, but my extra dependencies are fairly lightweight, and that probably won't work in all situations.
