Michel Tomas 24232078fd fix(adapters/registry): honor module-provided sessionManagement for external adapters (#4296)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Adapters are how paperclip hands work off to specific agent
runtimes; since #2218, external adapter packages can ship as npm modules
loaded via `server/src/adapters/plugin-loader.ts`
> - Each `ServerAdapterModule` can declare `sessionManagement`
(`supportsSessionResume`, `nativeContextManagement`,
`defaultSessionCompaction`) — but the init-time load at
`registry.ts:363-369` hard-overwrote it with a hardcoded-registry lookup
that has no entries for external types, so modules could not actually
set these fields
> - The hot-install path at `routes/adapters.ts:179` →
`registerServerAdapter` preserves module-provided `sessionManagement`,
so externals worked after `POST /api/adapters/install` — *until the next
server restart*, when the init-time IIFE wiped it back to `undefined`
> - #2218 explicitly deferred this: *"Adapter execution model, heartbeat
protocol, and session management are untouched."* This PR is the natural
follow-up for session management on the plugin-loader path
> - This PR aligns init-time registration with the hot-install path:
honor module-provided `sessionManagement` first, fall back to the
hardcoded registry when absent (so externals overriding a built-in type
still inherit its policy). Extracted as a testable helper with three
unit tests
> - The benefit is external adapters can declare session-resume
capabilities consistently across cold-start and hot-install, without
requiring upstream additions to the hardcoded registry for each new
plugin

## What Changed

- `server/src/adapters/registry.ts`: extracted the merge logic into a
new exported helper `resolveExternalAdapterRegistration()` — honors
module-provided `sessionManagement` first, falls back to
`getAdapterSessionManagement(type)`, else `undefined`. The init-time
IIFE calls the helper instead of inlining an overwrite.
- `server/src/adapters/registry.ts`: updated the section comment (lines
331–340) to reflect the new semantics and cross-reference the
hot-install path's behavior.
- `server/src/__tests__/adapter-registry.test.ts`: new
`describe("resolveExternalAdapterRegistration")` block with three tests
— module-provided value preserved, registry fallback when module omits,
`undefined` when neither provides.

## Verification

Targeted test run from a clean tree on
`fix/external-session-management`:

```
cd server && pnpm exec vitest run src/__tests__/adapter-registry.test.ts
# 1 test file, 15 tests passed, 0 failed (12 pre-existing + 3 new)
```

Full server suite via the independent review pass noted under Model
Used: **1,156 tests passed, 0 failed**.

Typecheck note: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit`
surfaces two errors in `src/services/plugin-host-services.ts:1510`
(`createInteraction` + implicit-any). Verified by `git stash` + re-run
on clean `upstream/master` — they reproduce without this PR's changes.
Pre-existing, out of scope.

## Risks

- **Low behavioral risk.** Strictly additive: externals that do NOT
provide `sessionManagement` continue to receive exactly the same value
as before (registry lookup → `undefined` for pure externals, or the
builtin's entry for externals overriding a built-in type). Only a new
capability is unlocked; no existing behavior changes for existing
adapters.
- **No breaking change.** `ServerAdapterModule.sessionManagement` was
already optional at the type level. Externals that never set it see no
difference on either path.
- **Consistency verified.** Init-time IIFE now matches the post-`POST
/api/adapters/install` behavior — a server restart no longer regresses
the field.

## Note

This is part of a broader effort to close the parity gap between
external and built-in adapters. Once externals reach 1:1 capability
coverage with internals, new-adapter contributions can increasingly be
steered toward the external-plugin path instead of the core product — a
trajectory CONTRIBUTING.md already encourages ("*If the idea fits as an
extension, prefer building it with the plugin system*").

## Model Used

- **Provider**: Anthropic
- **Model**: Claude Opus 4.7
- **Exact model ID**: `claude-opus-4-7` (1M-context variant:
`claude-opus-4-7[1m]`)
- **Context window**: 1,000,000 tokens
- **Harness**: Claude Code (Anthropic's official CLI), orchestrated by
@superbiche as human-in-the-loop. Full file-editing, shell, and `gh`
tool use, plus parallel research subagents for fact-finding against
paperclip internals (plugin-loader contract, sessionCodec reachability,
UI parser surface, Cline CLI JSON schema).
- **Independent local review**: Gemini 3.1 Pro (Google) performed a
separate verification pass on the committed branch — confirmed the
approach & necessity, ran the full workspace build, and executed the
complete server test suite (1,156 tests, all passing). Not used for
authoring; second-opinion pass only.
- **Authoring split**: @superbiche identified the gap (while mapping the
external-adapter surface for a downstream adapter build) and shaped the
plan — categorising the surface into `works / acceptable /
needs-upstream` buckets, directing the surgical-diff approach on a fresh
branch from `upstream/master`, and calling the framing ("alignment bug
between init-time IIFE and hot-install path" rather than "missing
capability"). Opus 4.7 executed the fact-finding, the diff, the tests,
and drafted this PR body — all under direct review.

Robin van Duiven 8d0c3d2fe6 fix(hermes): inject agent JWT into Hermes adapter env to fix identity attribution (#3608)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents and records their actions through
auditable issue comments and API writes.
> - The local adapter registry is responsible for adapting each agent
runtime to Paperclip's server-side execution context.
> - The Hermes local adapter delegated directly to
`hermes-paperclip-adapter`, whose current execution context type
predates the server `authToken` field.
> - Without explicitly passing the run-scoped agent token and run id
into Hermes, Hermes could inherit a server or board-user
`PAPERCLIP_API_KEY` and lack a usable `PAPERCLIP_RUN_ID` for mutating
API calls.
> - That made Paperclip writes from Hermes agents risk appearing under
the wrong identity or without the correct run-scoped attribution.
> - This pull request wraps the Hermes execution call so Hermes receives
the agent run JWT as `PAPERCLIP_API_KEY` and the current execution id as
`PAPERCLIP_RUN_ID` while preserving explicit adapter configuration where
appropriate.
> - Follow-up review fixes preserve Hermes' built-in prompt when no
custom prompt template exists and document the intentional type cast.
> - The benefit is reliable agent attribution for the covered local
Hermes path without clobbering Hermes' default heartbeat/task
instructions.

## What Changed

- Wrapped `hermesLocalAdapter.execute` so `ctx.authToken` is injected
into `adapterConfig.env.PAPERCLIP_API_KEY` when no explicit Paperclip
API key is already configured.
- Injected `ctx.runId` into `adapterConfig.env.PAPERCLIP_RUN_ID` so the
auth guard's `X-Paperclip-Run-Id: $PAPERCLIP_RUN_ID` instruction
resolves to the current run id.
- Added a Paperclip API auth guard to existing custom Hermes
`promptTemplate` values without creating a replacement prompt when no
custom template exists.
- Documented the intentional `as unknown as` cast needed until
`hermes-paperclip-adapter` ships an `AdapterExecutionContext` type that
includes `authToken`.
- Added registry tests for JWT injection, run-id injection, explicit key
preservation, default prompt preservation, and the no-`authToken`
early-return path.

## Verification

- [x] `pnpm --filter "./server" exec vitest run adapter-registry` - 8
tests passed.
- [x] `pnpm --filter "./server" typecheck` - passed.
- [x] Trigger a Hermes agent heartbeat and verify Paperclip writes
appear under the agent identity rather than a shared board-user
identity, with the correct run id on mutating requests.

## Risks

- Low migration risk: this changes only the Hermes local adapter wrapper
and tests.
- Existing explicit `adapterConfig.env.PAPERCLIP_API_KEY` values are
preserved to avoid breaking intentionally configured agents.
- `PAPERCLIP_RUN_ID` is set from `ctx.runId` for each execution so
mutating API calls use the current run id instead of a stale or literal
placeholder value.
- Prompt behavior is intentionally conservative: the auth guard is only
prepended when a custom prompt template already exists, so Hermes'
built-in default prompt remains intact for unconfigured agents.
- Remaining operational risk: the identity and run-id behavior should
still be verified with a live Hermes heartbeat before relying on it in
production.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 family coding agent, tool use enabled for local
shell, GitHub CLI, and test execution.

Chris Farhood 50cd76d8a3 feat(adapters): add capability flags to ServerAdapterModule (#3540)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents via adapters (`claude_local`,
`codex_local`, etc.)
> - Each adapter type has different capabilities — instructions bundles,
skill materialization, local JWT — but these were gated by 5 hardcoded
type lists scattered across server routes and UI components
> - External adapter plugins (e.g. a future `opencode_k8s`) cannot add
themselves to those hardcoded lists without patching Paperclip source
> - The existing `supportsLocalAgentJwt` field on `ServerAdapterModule`
proves the right pattern already exists; it just wasn't applied to the
other capability gates
> - This pull request replaces the 4 remaining hardcoded lists with
declarative capability flags on `ServerAdapterModule`, exposed through
the adapter listing API
> - The benefit is that external adapter plugins can now declare their
own capabilities without any changes to Paperclip source code

## What Changed

- **`packages/adapter-utils/src/types.ts`** — added optional capability
fields to `ServerAdapterModule`: `supportsInstructionsBundle`,
`instructionsPathKey`, `requiresMaterializedRuntimeSkills`
- **`server/src/routes/agents.ts`** — replaced
`DEFAULT_MANAGED_INSTRUCTIONS_ADAPTER_TYPES` and
`ADAPTERS_REQUIRING_MATERIALIZED_RUNTIME_SKILLS` hardcoded sets with
capability-aware helper functions that fall back to the legacy sets for
adapters that don't set flags
- **`server/src/routes/adapters.ts`** — `GET /api/adapters` now includes
a `capabilities` object per adapter (all four flags + derived
`supportsSkills`)
- **`server/src/adapters/registry.ts`** — all built-in adapters
(`claude_local`, `codex_local`, `process`, `cursor`) now declare flags
explicitly
- **`ui/src/adapters/use-adapter-capabilities.ts`** — new hook that
fetches adapter capabilities from the API
- **`ui/src/pages/AgentDetail.tsx`** — replaced hardcoded `isLocal`
allowlist with `capabilities.supportsInstructionsBundle` from the API
- **`ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.tsx`** /
**`OnboardingWizard.tsx`** — replaced `NONLOCAL_TYPES` denylist with
capability-based checks
- **`server/src/__tests__/adapter-registry.test.ts`** /
**`adapter-routes.test.ts`** — tests covering flag exposure,
undefined-when-unset, and per-adapter values
- **`docs/adapters/creating-an-adapter.md`** — new "Capability Flags"
section documenting all flags and an example for external plugin authors

## Verification

- Run `pnpm test --filter=@paperclip/server -- adapter-registry
adapter-routes` — all new tests pass
- Run `pnpm test --filter=@paperclip/adapter-utils` — existing tests
still pass
- Spin up dev server, open an agent with `claude_local` type —
instructions bundle tab still visible
- Create/open an agent with a non-local type — instructions bundle tab
still hidden
- Call `GET /api/adapters` and verify each adapter includes a
`capabilities` object with the correct flags

## Risks

- **Low risk overall** — all new flags are optional with
backwards-compatible fallbacks to the existing hardcoded sets; no
adapter behaviour changes unless a flag is explicitly set
- Adapters that do not declare flags continue to use the legacy lists,
so there is no regression risk for built-in adapters
- The UI capability hook adds one API call to AgentDetail mount; this is
a pre-existing endpoint, so no new latency path is introduced

## Model Used

- Provider: Anthropic
- Model: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (`claude-sonnet-4-6`)
- Context: 200k token context window
- Mode: Agentic tool use (code editing, bash, grep, file reads)

details)

HenkDz 2a2fa31a03 feat(adapters): allow external plugins to override built-in adapters
Previously external adapters matching a built-in type were skipped with
a warning. Now they override the built-in, so plugin developers can ship
improved versions of existing adapters (e.g. hermes-paperclip-adapter)
without removing the built-in fallback for users who haven't installed
the plugin.

HenkDz 14d59da316 feat(adapters): external adapter plugin system with dynamic UI parser
- Plugin loader: install/reload/remove/reinstall external adapters
  from npm packages or local directories
- Plugin store persisted at ~/.paperclip/adapter-plugins.json
- Self-healing UI parser resolution with version caching
- UI: Adapter Manager page, dynamic loader, display registry
  with humanized names for unknown adapter types
- Dev watch: exclude adapter-plugins dir from tsx watcher
  to prevent mid-request server restarts during reinstall
- All consumer fallbacks use getAdapterLabel() for consistent display
- AdapterTypeDropdown uses controlled open state for proper close behavior
- Remove hermes-local from built-in UI (externalized to plugin)
- Add docs for external adapters and UI parser contract
