a355b6f0ad fix(workspace-server): emit Gitea/PyPI URLs for external user instructions (RFC #229 P2-5)
All checks were successful
audit-force-merge / audit (pull_request) Has been skipped
Secret scan / Scan diff for credential-shaped strings (pull_request) Successful in 18s
sop-tier-check / tier-check (pull_request) Successful in 23s
The Molecule-AI GitHub org was suspended 2026-05-06; canonical SCM is
now git.moleculesai.app. external_connection.go was still emitting
github.com URLs in operator-facing copy-paste blocks, breaking
external-agent onboarding silently.

Per-site decisions (8 emit sites in 1 file):

- L124 (channel template doc comment): swap source-of-truth comment to
  Gitea host.
- L137 /plugin marketplace add Molecule-AI/...: swap to explicit Gitea
  HTTPS URL form. End-to-end-verified path per internal#37 § 1.A.
- L138 /plugin install molecule@molecule-mcp-claude-channel: marketplace
  name is molecule-channel (per remote .claude-plugin/marketplace.json),
  not the repo name. Fix to molecule@molecule-channel.
- L157 --channels plugin:molecule@molecule-mcp-claude-channel: same
  marketplace-name fix.
- L179 user-facing GitHub URL: swap to Gitea.
- L261 pip install git+https://github.com/Molecule-AI/molecule-sdk-python:
  not on PyPI; swap to git+https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/...
- L310 hermes-channel doc comment: swap source-of-truth comment.
- L339 pip install git+https://github.com/Molecule-AI/hermes-channel-molecule:
  not on PyPI; swap to Gitea.
- L369 issue-tracker URL: swap to Gitea.

Verification:
- molecule-ai-workspace-runtime, codex-channel-molecule are on PyPI (200);
  no swap needed for those pip lines (they were already package-name form).
- molecule-mcp-claude-channel, molecule-sdk-python, hermes-channel-molecule
  are NOT on PyPI; swapped to git+https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/
  form. All three repos are public on Gitea (default branch main) and
  serve git-upload-pack unauthenticated (verified curl 200 against
  /info/refs?service=git-upload-pack).
- Third-party github URLs (gin import, openai/codex, NousResearch/
  hermes-agent upstream issue trackers, npm @openai/codex) intentionally
  preserved.

Adds TestExternalTemplates_NoBrokenMoleculeAIGitHubURLs regression guard
to prevent the same broken URLs from re-emerging on future template
edits.

go vet / go build / existing TestExternal* — all clean.

eab36e217e fix(external-connect): use molecule-mcp wrapper in Codex/OpenClaw templates (#2957)
The External Connect modal's Codex and OpenClaw tabs were rendering
this MCP server config:

  command = "python3"
  args = ["-m", "molecule_runtime.a2a_mcp_server"]

That spawns the bare MCP dispatcher with no presence wiring. The
``molecule-mcp`` console-script wrapper (mcp_cli.main) is what calls
``POST /registry/register`` at startup and runs the 20s heartbeat
thread alongside the MCP stdio loop. Without the wrapper, the canvas
flips the workspace back to ``awaiting_agent`` (OFFLINE) within
60-90s — even while tools work — because nothing is heartbeating.

Operator-side this looks like: the workspace is registered and tools
work fine when invoked, but the canvas shows "offline" / "Restart"
CTA, peer agents see the workspace as awaiting_agent in list_peers
output, and inbound A2A delivery silently fails the readiness check.
A new external-Codex operator (#2957) hit this and spent debugging
time on what should have been a copy-paste install.

Fix: switch both Codex and OpenClaw templates to
``command = "molecule-mcp"`` / ``args = []``, matching the universal
MCP template that already handles this correctly. Inline comment in
each template explains the wrapper-vs-bare-module tradeoff so a
future template author doesn't regress to the shorter form.

Hermes-channel intentionally still spawns the bare module — the
hermes plugin owns the platform plugin path and runs its own
register_platform/heartbeat code in-process; double-heartbeating
would race. Universal/Codex/OpenClaw all need the wrapper.

Regression gate: TestExternalMcpTemplates_UseMoleculeMcpWrapper
asserts the three templates that must use the wrapper actually do,
and explicitly fails on the old ``-m molecule_runtime.a2a_mcp_server``
shape. Verified the test FAILS on pre-fix source by stashing only
external_connection.go and re-running.

Source: molecule-core#2957 issue 1 (item 4 of the report — the
``(codex returned empty output)`` / opaque-canvas-error / stale-
session items live in codex-channel-molecule and are tracked
separately).

f3782662bd refactor(external-connect): embed help in agent paste, fix wrong docs hostname
Two related fixes to the Connect-External-Agent flow that the user
flagged: the "Need help?" disclosure block in the modal is for the
operator's eyes only — but the agent reading the pasted snippet has
no access to that context. And the docs URL was pointing at a
hostname that doesn't resolve.

User-visible problems:
1. The agent doesn't see the install link, docs link, or the common-
   error/check pairs that the human pasted. When the agent fails to
   register or hits ConnectionRefused, it can't self-diagnose because
   the troubleshooting context lives in a separate UI block.
2. https://docs.molecule.ai → DNS NXDOMAIN. Every "Documentation"
   link in the modal was a dead link.

## Fixes

### Move help INTO the snippet (not a separate human-only UI block)
Each of the 7 server-rendered templates in
`workspace-server/internal/handlers/external_connection.go` now
appends a `# Need help?` section with: install link, correct docs
link, and the top common errors as `# • symptom — check` pairs.

Templates updated: curl / channel (Claude Code) / mcp (Universal MCP) /
python / hermes / codex / openclaw. Agents reading the paste now have
the same diagnostic context the human did.

### Drop the duplicated UI block in the canvas modal
`canvas/src/components/ExternalConnectModal.tsx`:
- Removed the `TAB_HELP` per-tab metadata constant (152 lines).
- Removed the `HelpBlock` component (62 lines).
- Removed the `<HelpBlock help={TAB_HELP[tab]} />` render call.

The snippet is now the single source of truth for tab-level help.

### Fix the wrong docs hostname
The actual docs site is `doc.moleculesai.app` (singular `doc`,
`.app` not `.ai`), confirmed by:
- `package.json` description in `Molecule-AI/docs` repo →
  "Molecule AI documentation site — doc.moleculesai.app"
- HTTP HEAD on the new URL → 200 for both
  `/docs/guides/mcp-server-setup` and
  `/docs/guides/external-agent-registration`
- HTTP HEAD on old `docs.molecule.ai` → 000 (NXDOMAIN)

All template docs URLs now point at `doc.moleculesai.app`.

## Verification
- `go build ./...` clean
- `go test ./internal/handlers/... -count=1` green
- `pnpm test` → 1291/1291 pass (unchanged)
- `tsc --noEmit` clean
- 219 LOC removed (canvas duplicate UI), 69 LOC added (snippet help)
- Net `-150 LOC` while gaining the agent-readable help

## Out of scope (deferred, captured in followups)
- One blog post still has `canonical: "https://docs.molecule.ai/blog/..."`
  in `src/app/blog/2026-04-20-chrome-devtools-mcp/page.mdx` — separate
  blog-content fix.
- Comment in `theme-provider.tsx` references `docs.moleculesai.app`
  (with `s`) — comment-only, not a runtime URL.

cb70d3d437 docs: callout Python>=3.11 requirement on Universal MCP install snippet
User-reported friction: pip install molecule-ai-workspace-runtime on a
3.10 interpreter fails with "Could not find a version that satisfies the
requirement (from versions: none)" — pip's requires_python filter
silently drops the only available artifact before attempting install,
so the error doesn't mention Python at all. Operators see
"package missing", file a bug, and chase a phantom CDN/visibility
issue.

Two changes mirror the requirement at the two operator-touch surfaces:

1. workspace-server/internal/handlers/external_connection.go:
   the externalUniversalMcpTemplate snippet (rendered into the
   canvas Connect-External-Agent modal) now leads with a brief
   "Requires Python >= 3.11" block + diagnostic + upgrade paths.

2. docs/workspace-runtime-package.md: same callout at the top of
   the doc, before the Overview, so anyone landing here from search
   gets the answer immediately.

b375252dc8 feat(external): credential rotation + re-show instruction modal (#319)
External workspaces (runtime=external) lose their workspace_auth_token
the moment the create modal closes — the token is unrecoverable from
any later DB read. Operators who lost their copy or want to respond to
a suspected leak had no recovery path short of recreating the workspace
(which also breaks cross-workspace delegation links + memory namespace).

This PR adds two endpoints + a Config-tab section that surfaces them:

  POST /workspaces/:id/external/rotate
    Revokes any prior live tokens, mints a fresh one, returns the same
    ExternalConnectionInfo payload Create returns. Old credentials stop
    working immediately — the previously-paired agent will fail auth on
    its next heartbeat (~20s).

  GET /workspaces/:id/external/connection
    Returns the connect block with auth_token="". For the operator who
    just needs to re-find PLATFORM_URL / WORKSPACE_ID / one of the
    snippets without invalidating the live agent.

Both reject runtime ≠ external with 400 + a hint pointing at /restart
for non-external runtimes (which mints AND injects into the container).

## Why a flag isn't needed

The endpoints are purely additive — Create's behavior is unchanged.
Existing external workspaces don't see anything different until an
operator clicks the new buttons.

## DRY refactor

Extracted BuildExternalConnectionPayload() in external_connection.go
as the single source of truth for the connect payload shape. Create,
Rotate, and GetExternalConnection all call it. Adds a snippet once →
all three endpoints emit it. Trims trailing slash on platform_url so
no double-slash sneaks into registry_endpoint.

## Canvas

ExternalConnectionSection mounts in ConfigTab when runtime=external.
Two buttons:
  - "Show connection info" (cosmetic) — fetches GET /external/connection
  - "Rotate credentials" (destructive) — confirm dialog explains the
    impact, then POST /external/rotate

Both reuse the existing ExternalConnectModal so operators don't learn
a second snippet UX.

## Coverage

10 Go tests:
  - Rotate happy path (revoke + mint order, payload shape, broadcast event)
  - Rotate refuses non-external runtimes (400 with restart hint)
  - Rotate 404 on unknown workspace + 400 on empty id
  - GetExternalConnection happy path (auth_token="", same payload shape)
  - GetExternalConnection refuses non-external + 404 on unknown
  - BuildExternalConnectionPayload — placeholder substitution + trailing
    slash trimming + blank-token contract

6 canvas tests:
  - both action buttons render
  - "Show" calls GET /external/connection and opens modal
  - "Rotate" opens confirm dialog before firing POST
  - Cancel dismisses without rotating
  - Confirm POSTs and opens modal with returned token
  - API failures surface as visible error chips

Migration: existing external workspaces gain new abilities; no data
migration. The DRY refactor preserves byte-identical Create response
shape (8 ConfigTab tests + all existing handler tests still pass).

Closes #319.

410275e5af fix(external-templates): unpin codex CLI from stale ^0.57
`^0.57` only allows 0.57.x — codex CLI is now at 0.128 with breaking
API changes between (notably `exec --resume <sid>` → `exec resume <sid>`
subcommand). Operators following the snippet today either get a
6-month-old codex with the legacy resume flag, OR install latest manually
and discover the daemon previously couldn't drive it.

codex-channel-molecule 0.1.2 (just published) handles the new subcommand
shape, so operators are best served by always getting the latest codex
that the bridge daemon was last validated against. Bump to `@latest`.

If a future codex CLI breaks the daemon's invocation again, we ship a
new bridge-daemon release rather than asking operators to manage a pin
themselves.

Test: go test ./internal/handlers/ -run TestExternalTemplates -count=1 → green.

c0bfd19b9e feat(external-templates): codex tab uses plain pip install for bridge daemon
`codex-channel-molecule` 0.1.0 is now on PyPI, so operators no longer need
the `git+https://...` URL workaround.

Verified: `pip install codex-channel-molecule` from a clean venv installs
the wheel and the `codex-channel-molecule --help` console script runs.

dfd0bc528c fix(external-templates): codex-channel-molecule via git+ URL (not on PyPI yet)
Mirrors the pattern hermes-channel-molecule uses (line 256). Drops
the broken `pip install codex-channel-molecule` which would 404.
PyPI publish workflow is a separate piece of work — until then,
git+https install is the path operators get.

4ea6f437e9 feat(external-templates): codex tab now includes the bridge-daemon inbound path
The codex tab in the External Connect modal had a "outbound-tools-only
first cut" caveat — operators got the MCP wiring for codex calling
platform tools, but there was no documented inbound path. Canvas
messages couldn't wake an idle codex session.

That gap is now filled by codex-channel-molecule
(github.com/Molecule-AI/codex-channel-molecule), shipped today as the
codex counterpart to hermes-channel-molecule. The daemon long-polls
the platform inbox, runs `codex exec --resume <session>` per inbound
message, captures the assistant reply, routes it back via
send_message_to_user / delegate_task, and acks the inbox row.
Per-thread session continuity persisted to disk so daemon restarts
don't lose conversation context.

This commit:
- Updates externalCodexTemplate to include `pip install
  codex-channel-molecule` (step 1) and a foreground `nohup
  codex-channel-molecule` invocation (step 3) using the same env-var
  contract as the MCP server (WORKSPACE_ID + PLATFORM_URL +
  MOLECULE_WORKSPACE_TOKEN).
- Adds a "Canvas messages don't wake codex" common-issues entry to the
  TAB_HELP codex section pointing at the bridge daemon log.
- Updates the doc comment to record the upstream deprecation path:
  when openai/codex#17543 lands, the bridge becomes redundant and the
  wired MCP server delivers push natively.

Verified: TestExternalTemplates_NoMoleculeOrgIDPlaceholder still
passes (no MOLECULE_ORG_ID re-introduction); full handlers suite
green.

472862bc50 fix(external-templates): drop MOLECULE_ORG_ID from operator-facing snippets
Codex / openclaw / hermes-channel snippets each instructed operators
to set `MOLECULE_ORG_ID = "<your org id>"`. The molecule_runtime MCP
subprocess these snippets spawn never reads MOLECULE_ORG_ID — that
env var is consumed only by workspace-server's TenantGuard
middleware, server-side, on the tenant box itself (set by the control
plane via user-data on provision).

External operator → tenant calls pass TenantGuard via the
isSameOriginCanvas path (Origin matches Host), with auth via Bearer
token + X-Workspace-ID. The universal_mcp snippet — which calls into
the same molecule_runtime — has always (correctly) omitted
MOLECULE_ORG_ID; this brings codex / openclaw / hermes-channel into
line.

Symptom that caught it: an external codex CLI session, after pasting
the codex-tab snippet, surfaced "MOLECULE_ORG_ID is still set to
'<your org id>'" as an unresolved blocker — agent reasonably treated
the placeholder as required setup. Operator has no value to fill.

Pinned with a structural test
(TestExternalTemplates_NoMoleculeOrgIDPlaceholder) so the placeholder
can't drift back across all six external-tab templates.

d5eb58af56 feat(external-connect): comprehensive setup — fix Claude Code channel snippet + add per-tab Help section
User report: handing the modal's Claude Code channel snippet to an
agent fails immediately with two errors that the snippet doesn't tell
the operator how to resolve:

  plugin:molecule@Molecule-AI/molecule-mcp-claude-channel · plugin not installed
  plugin:molecule@Molecule-AI/molecule-mcp-claude-channel · not on the approved channels allowlist

Root cause: the snippet's `claude --channels plugin:...` line assumes
the plugin is pre-installed AND that the channel is on Anthropic's
default allowlist. Both assumptions are wrong for a custom Molecule
plugin in a public repo.

Two changes:

1. Rewrite externalChannelTemplate (Go) with full setup chain:
   - Bun prereq check (channel plugins are Bun scripts)
   - `/plugin marketplace add Molecule-AI/molecule-mcp-claude-channel`
     + `/plugin install molecule@molecule-mcp-claude-channel` BEFORE the
     launch — otherwise "plugin not installed"
   - `--dangerously-load-development-channels` flag on launch — required
     for non-Anthropic-allowlisted channels, otherwise "not on approved
     channels allowlist"
   - Common-errors block at the bottom mapping each error string to
     which numbered step recovers it
   - Team/Enterprise managed-settings caveat (the dev-channels flag is
     blocked there; admin must use channelsEnabled + allowedChannelPlugins)

   Plugin install info verified by reading `Molecule-AI/molecule-mcp-claude-channel`
   plugin.json (`name: "molecule"`) and the Claude Code channels +
   plugin-discovery docs at code.claude.com/docs/en/{channels,discover-plugins}.

2. Add per-tab HelpBlock to the modal (canvas):
   - Collapsible <details> below each snippet, closed by default so the
     snippet stays the visual focus
   - "Where to install" link (PyPI for runtime, claude.com for Claude
     Code, github.com/openai/codex for Codex, NousResearch/hermes-agent
     for Hermes)
   - "Documentation" link (docs.molecule.ai/docs/guides/*; hostname
     confirmed by existing blog post canonical metadata; paths map
     1:1 to docs/guides/*.md files in this repo)
   - "Common errors" list with concrete recovery steps for each tab
     (e.g. Codex tab calls out the codex≥0.57 requirement and TOML
     duplicate-table parse error; OpenClaw calls out the :18789 port
     conflict check)

   URL discipline: every URL is either (a) verified against a file path
   in this repo's docs/, (b) the canonical repo of an existing snippet
   reference, or (c) a well-known third-party canonical URL. No guessed
   URLs — broken links would defeat the purpose of "more comprehensive
   instructions."

Verification:
- `go build ./...` clean in workspace-server
- `go test ./internal/handlers/...` passes (4.3s)
- Bash syntax check on test_staging_full_saas.sh (no edits there) clean
- TS brace/paren/bracket counts balanced; no full tsc run because the
  worktree's node_modules isn't installed — counterpart Canvas tabs E2E
  on the PR will exercise the full type-check + render path

ff0d4dae77 fix(external-connect): address self-review criticals — config corruption + durability
Self-review of the modal-tab additions caught footguns in the new
hermes/codex/openclaw snippets. Ship the fixes before merge.

Critical 1 — Hermes `cat >> ~/.hermes/config.yaml` corrupts existing
configs. Most existing hermes installs have a top-level gateway:
block; appending creates a duplicate, which YAML rejects. Replaced
the auto-append with explicit instructions: 'under your existing
gateway: block, add a plugin_platforms entry'.

Critical 2 — Codex `cat >> ~/.codex/config.toml` corrupts on
re-run. TOML rejects duplicate [mcp_servers.molecule] tables; a
second run breaks codex parse. Replaced auto-append with commented
config block + explicit 'open ~/.codex/config.toml in your editor
and paste'. Canvas-side token stamping still hits the literal in
the comment so the operator's clipboard has the real token already
substituted.

Required 3 — OpenClaw `onboard --non-interactive` missing
provider/model defaults. Added explicit --provider + --model
placeholders in a commented form so operators see what's needed
without a stub default applying silently.

Required 4 — OpenClaw gateway started with bare '&' dies on
terminal close. Switched to nohup + log file + disown, with a note
that systemd is the right answer for production.

Optional 5 + 6 (env_vars cleanup, tests) deferred — env_vars stripped
to keep the in-tree-vs-external surface narrow; tests for the new
response fields can land separately when external_connection.go is
next touched.

eba0c5e3f1 feat(canvas): add Hermes/Codex/OpenClaw tabs to ExternalConnectModal + default to Universal MCP
The External Connect modal had tabs for Python SDK / curl / Claude Code
channel / Universal MCP. Operators using hermes / codex / openclaw as
their external runtime had no copy-paste; they pieced together
WORKSPACE_ID + PLATFORM_URL + auth_token into config files by reading
docs.

Adds three runtime-specific snippets stamped server-side:

- **Hermes** — installs molecule-ai-workspace-runtime + the
  hermes-channel-molecule plugin, exports the 4 env vars, and writes
  the gateway.plugin_platforms.molecule block into ~/.hermes/config.yaml.
  Same long-poll-based push semantics the Claude Code channel tab
  delivers (push parity with the in-tree template-hermes adapter).

- **Codex** — wires the molecule_runtime A2A MCP server into
  ~/.codex/config.toml ([mcp_servers.molecule] block with env_vars
  passthrough + literal env values). Outbound tools only — codex's
  MCP client doesn't route arbitrary notifications/* (verified by
  reading codex-rs/codex-mcp/src/connection_manager.rs); push parity
  on external codex would need a separate bridge daemon, tracked
  as future work. Snippet calls this out so operators know to pair
  with Python SDK if they need inbound delivery.

- **OpenClaw** — installs openclaw + onboards, wires the molecule
  MCP server via openclaw mcp set, starts the gateway on loopback.
  Same outbound-tools-only caveat as codex; the in-tree template-
  openclaw adapter implements the full sessions.steer push path,
  but an external setup would need the same bridge daemon to translate
  platform inbox events into sessions.steer calls. Future work.

Default open tab changed from "Claude Code" to "Universal MCP".
Universal MCP is runtime-agnostic and works as a starting point for
any operator regardless of their downstream agent runtime; runtime-
specific tabs are still one click away. Pre-2026-05-03 the modal
defaulted to Claude Code, so operators using non-Claude runtimes
opened to a tab they had to skip past.

Tab order also reorganized:
  Universal MCP → Python SDK → Claude Code → Hermes → Codex → OpenClaw → curl → Fields

Each runtime-specific tab is gated on the platform supplying the
snippet (older platform builds without the field don't show empty
tabs).

876c0bfcd4 docs(canvas): update Universal MCP snippet — molecule-mcp now standalone
The canvas tab snippet for the Universal MCP path was written before
this PR added the built-in register + heartbeat thread. Earlier wording
described it as "outbound-only — pair with the Claude Code or Python SDK
tab for heartbeat + inbound messages" — that's stale. molecule-mcp now
handles register + heartbeat itself; the only thing it doesn't yet do is
inbound A2A delivery.

Updated:
- externalUniversalMcpTemplate header comment + body — describes
  standalone behavior, points operators at SDK/channel only when they
  need INBOUND (not heartbeat).
- Drops the now-redundant curl-register step from the snippet — the
  binary registers itself on startup.
- Canvas modal label likewise updated.

No runtime / behavior change; pure docs polish so a copy-pasting
operator's mental model matches what the binary actually does.

716589742c feat(canvas): add Universal MCP tab to external-agent connect modal
The "Connect your external agent" dialog already covered Claude Code,
Python SDK, curl, and raw fields. This adds a Universal MCP tab that
documents the new \`molecule-mcp\` console script — the runtime-
agnostic baseline shipped by PR #2413's workspace-runtime changes.

Surface area:
- New \`externalUniversalMcpTemplate\` constant in workspace-server.
  Three-step snippet: pip install runtime → one-shot register via curl
  → wire molecule-mcp into agent's MCP config (Claude Code example,
  notes that hermes/codex/etc. take the same env-var contract).
- Workspace create response now includes \`universal_mcp_snippet\`
  alongside the existing curl/python/channel snippets.
- Canvas modal renders the tab when \`universal_mcp_snippet\` is
  present; backward-compatible with older platform builds (tab hides
  when empty).

Origin/WAF coverage (the user explicitly asked for this):
- The runtime wheel handles Origin automatically (this PR's earlier
  commit on platform_auth.auth_headers).
- The curl tab now sets \`Origin: {{PLATFORM_URL}}\` preemptively
  with an explanatory comment; \`/registry/register\` is currently
  WAF-allowed without it but adding now keeps the snippet working
  if WAF rules expand. The comment also explains why
  \`/workspaces/*\` paths return empty 404 without Origin — the
  exact failure mode I hit while smoke-testing this PR live.
- The MCP snippet's footer notes that the wheel auto-handles
  Origin so operators don't think about it.

End-to-end verification (against live tenant
hongmingwang.moleculesai.app, freshly registered workspace):
- get_workspace_info → full JSON
- list_peers → "Claude Code Agent (ID: 97ac32e9..., status: online)"
- recall_memory → "No memories found."
all returned by the molecule-mcp binary speaking MCP stdio to
this Claude Code session.

34d467fe8a docs: surface molecule-mcp-claude-channel plugin in external-workspace creation + CONTRIBUTING
Adds a third snippet alongside externalCurlTemplate / externalPythonTemplate
in workspace-server/internal/handlers/external_connection.go: the new
externalChannelTemplate guides operators through installing the Claude Code
channel plugin (Molecule-AI/molecule-mcp-claude-channel — scaffolded today)
and dropping the .env config for it.

Wires the new snippet into the external-workspace POST /workspaces response
under key `claude_code_channel_snippet`, alongside the existing
`curl_register_template` and `python_snippet`. Canvas's "external workspace
created" modal can render it as a third tab.

CONTRIBUTING.md gains a short "External integrations" section pointing at
the three peer repos (workspace-runtime, sdk-python, mcp-claude-channel)
so contributors know where related runtime artifacts live and to consider
downstream impact when changing the A2A wire shape.

The plugin itself is scaffolded at commit d07363c on the new repo's main
branch; v0.1 is polling-based via the /activity?since_secs= filter shipped
in PR #2300. README + roadmap details there.

1e8b5e0167 feat(external-runtime): first-class BYO-compute workspaces + manifest-driven registry
## Problem

Two issues the external-workspace path was silently dropping:

1. `knownRuntimes` was a hardcoded Go map that drifted from
   manifest.json — e.g. `gemini-cli` was in manifest but missing
   from the Go allowlist, so any workspace provisioning with
   runtime=gemini-cli got silently coerced to langgraph.

2. No end-to-end "bring your own compute" story. The canvas UI
   had no way to pick runtime=external; the partial backend code
   required the operator to already have a URL ready (chicken-and-
   egg with the agent that doesn't exist yet), and no workspace_auth
   _token was minted so the external agent couldn't authenticate its
   register call.

## Change

### Runtime registry driven by manifest.json

- New `runtime_registry.go` reads `manifest.json` at service init.
  Each `workspace_templates[].name` becomes a runtime identifier
  (with the `-default` suffix stripped so `claude-code-default`
  and `claude-code` resolve to the same runtime).
- `external` is always injected (no template repo exists for it).
- Falls back to a static map on manifest load failure so tests /
  dev containers keep working.
- 5 new tests including a real-manifest sanity check.

### First-class external workspace flow

When `POST /workspaces` is called with `runtime: "external"` AND
no URL supplied:

1. Workspace row inserted with `status='awaiting_agent'`
   (distinct from `provisioning` so canvas doesn't trip its
   provisioning-timeout UX).
2. A workspace_auth_token is minted via `wsauth.IssueToken`.
3. Response body includes a `connection` object with:
   - `workspace_id`, `platform_url`, `auth_token`
   - `registry_endpoint`, `heartbeat_endpoint`
   - `curl_register_template` — zero-dep one-shot register snippet
   - `python_snippet` — full SDK setup w/ heartbeat loop,
     paired with molecule-sdk-python PR #13's A2AServer
4. The platform URL is resolved from `EXTERNAL_PLATFORM_URL` env
   (ops-configurable per tenant) or falls back to request headers.

The legacy `payload.External` + `payload.URL` path is preserved —
org-import and other callers that already have a URL still work.

### Canvas UI

- New "External agent (bring your own compute)" checkbox in
  CreateWorkspaceDialog.
- When checked, template/model/hermes-provider fields are hidden
  and the POST body includes `runtime: "external"`.
- New `ExternalConnectModal` component: shown once after create,
  renders Python / curl / raw-fields tabs with copy-to-clipboard
  buttons. Stays mounted as a sibling of the create dialog so the
  token survives the create dialog unmount.
- `auth_token` is interpolated into the snippet client-side so the
  copied block is truly ready to run — operator only has to fill
  in their agent's public URL.

## Tests

- Go: 5 new runtime_registry tests (happy path, -default strip,
  external always injected, missing file, malformed JSON, real
  manifest sanity). All existing handler tests still pass.
- TypeScript: no type errors on my files; pre-existing
  canvas-batch-partial-failure type drift is on main already and
  tracked on the #2061 branch.

## Follow-ups (filed separately)

- Cut molecule-sdk-python v0.y to PyPI so the snippet can use
  `pip install molecule-ai-sdk` instead of `git+main`.
- Add a `runtime: string` field per template in manifest.json so
  one template can declare its runtime explicitly (instead of
  deriving it from name conventions). Unblocks N-templates-per-
  runtime (e.g. hermes-minimax, hermes-anthropic both runtime=hermes).
