| 2 | |
| 3 | ## Purpose |
| 4 | |
| 5 | - Own the `plugins.py` API endpoint. |
| 6 | - This module manages plugin actions and plugin settings through the core API. |
| 7 | - Keep this file-level DOX profile synchronized with `plugins.py` because this directory is intentionally flat. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | ## Ownership |
| 10 | |
| 11 | - `plugins.py` owns the runtime implementation. |
| 12 | - `plugins.py.dox.md` owns durable notes about responsibilities, contracts, side effects, and verification for that implementation. |
| 13 | - Classes: |
| 14 | - `Plugins` (`ApiHandler`) |
| 15 | - `async process(self, input: dict, request: Request) -> dict | Response` |
| 16 | |
| 17 | ## Runtime Contracts |
| 18 | |
| 19 | - HTTP handlers must derive from `helpers.api.ApiHandler`; WebSocket handlers must derive from `helpers.ws.WsHandler`. |
| 20 | - Update this file whenever request payloads, authentication or CSRF requirements, response shapes, route side effects, or WebSocket event contracts change. |
| 21 | - `Plugins` is an `ApiHandler`. |
| 22 | - `Plugins` defines `process(...)`. |
| 23 | - Toggle requests that try to disable an `always_enabled` plugin return HTTP |
| 24 | 400 without changing plugin state. |
| 25 | - Observed side-effect areas: filesystem reads, filesystem writes, filesystem deletion, subprocess/runtime control, plugin state, settings/state persistence. |
| 26 | - Imported dependency areas include: `helpers`, `helpers.api`, `helpers.localization`, `json`, `os`, `subprocess`, `sys`. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | ## Key Concepts |
| 29 | |
| 30 | - Important called helpers/classes observed in the source: `Response`, `plugins.find_plugin_assets`, `plugins.get_plugin_meta`, `plugins.get_default_plugin_config`, `plugins.save_plugin_config`, `plugins.toggle_plugin`, `plugins.find_plugin_dir`, `files.get_abs_path`, `Localization.get.now_iso`, `plugins.determine_plugin_asset_path`, `self._get_config`, `self._get_toggle_status`, `self._list_configs`, `self._delete_config`, `self._delete_plugin`, `self._get_default_config`, `self._save_config`, `self._toggle_plugin`, `self._get_doc`, `self._run_execute_script`. |
| 31 | - Keep request/response, tool, or helper semantics documented here at the same time as source changes. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | ## Work Guidance |
| 34 | |
| 35 | - Preserve authentication, CSRF, loopback, and API-key checks unless the endpoint contract explicitly changes. |
| 36 | - Update frontend callers, plugin callers, and tests together when payload shape changes. |
| 37 | - Use `helpers.api.Response` for non-JSON responses, files, redirects, or status-specific replies. |
| 38 | |
| 39 | ## Verification |
| 40 | |
| 41 | - Run endpoint-specific or API/WebSocket tests for changed behavior; smoke-test browser callers when no focused test exists. |
| 42 | - Related tests observed by source search: |
| 43 | - `tests/test_a0_connector_computer_use_metadata.py` |
| 44 | - `tests/test_a0_connector_prompt_gating.py` |
| 45 | - `tests/test_browser_agent_regressions.py` |
| 46 | - `tests/test_chat_compaction.py` |
| 47 | - `tests/test_default_prompt_budget.py` |
| 48 | - `tests/test_document_query_plugin.py` |
| 49 | - `tests/test_error_retry_plugin.py` |
| 50 | - `tests/test_host_browser_connector.py` |
