v2.3 Provider lifecycle — tasks

Implement in phase order from design.md. Do not commit unless Sam asks.

Phase 1 — Config + registry

• 1.1 Add CODER_PROVIDERS_PATH to apps/coder/src/config.ts (default /data/coder-providers.json)
• 1.2 Add data/coder-providers.json example + wire in apps/coder/.env.host
• 1.3 Implement provider-config.ts (Zod schema + load/merge/save)
• 1.4 Implement provider-config-registry.ts (buildResolvedRegistry, module singleton + reload)
• 1.5 Unit tests: built-in override, custom ACP add, enabled false, invalid entry skipped
• 1.6 Update agent-probe.ts to iterate resolved registry (include custom ids, respect enabled)

Phase 2 — Snapshot lifecycle

• 2.1 Extend ProviderSnapshotEntry / status union in coder + web types (loading, unavailable, enabled)
• 2.2 Add command-availability.ts (isCommandAvailable)
• 2.3 Rewrite buildProviderEntry: never return null; handle disabled/uninstalled/loading
• 2.4 Implement tier-2 skip using available_agents.last_probed_at + PROVIDER_PROBE_TTL_MS
• 2.5 Return loading entries synchronously on cache miss; complete via inflight promise
• 2.6 Extend provider-snapshot.test.ts for disabled, uninstalled, fresh DB skip, force refresh
• 2.7 Verify warm cache: second snapshot call does not invoke probeAcpProvider (mock assert)

Phase 3 — Generic dispatch

• 3.1 Add resolveLaunchSpec() to acp-spawn.ts
• 3.2 Wire acp-dispatch.ts to use launch spec + env merge
• 3.3 Wire dispatcher.ts to load resolved def by agent name
• 3.4 Unit test: custom command argv reaches spawn
• 3.5 Smoke: task dispatch for one custom catalog provider (if installed on host)

Phase 4 — HTTP API

• 4.1 GET /api/providers/config
• 4.2 PATCH /api/providers/config (merge + write file + reload registry + clear snapshot cache)
• 4.3 POST /api/providers/refresh optional body { providers?: string[] }
• 4.4 GET /api/providers/:id/diagnostic (plaintext report)
• 4.5 Extend apps/web/src/api/client.ts coder namespace
• 4.6 Confirm BooChat proxy forwards new routes (or document direct :9502)

Phase 5 — Web UI

• 5.1 Create apps/web/src/data/acp-provider-catalog.ts (5–10 curated entries)
• 5.2 AddProviderModal.tsx — search, install → patch + refresh subset
• 5.3 ProviderSettingsDrawer.tsx — list, status, toggle, refresh, link to add
• 5.4 Entry point from CoderPane / AgentComposerBar (gear or settings link)
• 5.5 Filter AgentComposerBar selectable providers (enabled && ready)
• 5.6 Loading state while snapshot entries loading (poll or one-shot refetch)
• 5.7 npx tsc -p apps/web/tsconfig.app.json --noEmit

Phase 6 — Docs, deploy, closeout

• 6.1 BOOCODER.md — config file, refresh contract, enable/disable
• 6.2 Update docs/DEFERRED-WORK.md — mark tier-2 cold-probe item addressed
• 6.3 CHANGELOG.md entry when tagged
• 6.4 pnpm -C apps/coder test && pnpm -C apps/coder build
• 6.5 sudo systemctl restart boocoder
• 6.6 Smoke via Tailscale:
  • curl http://100.114.205.53:9502/api/providers/snapshot
  • PATCH disable goose → absent from composer, visible in settings
  • POST refresh → models repopulate
  • Add catalog entry → appears after refresh

Optional (same batch if time)

• O.1 WS frame provider_snapshot_updated (skip polling)
• O.2 available_agents.enabled column mirror
• O.3 Diagnostic sheet UI (row click → modal)

Explicitly out of scope

• Port Paseo ACPAgentClient / per-provider SDK clients (see design §12)
• Full 30+ ACP catalog
• MCP list_providers tools
• Voice providers
