* perf(plugins): thread metadata snapshot and discovery through hot paths
With the snapshot memo now actually hitting, route the snapshot's
manifestRegistry and discovery through the helper chains that already
had fast paths for them. Eliminates redundant per-call rebuilds at
two big amplifiers.
- Provider resolve paths (resolvePluginProviders /
isPluginProvidersLoadInFlight / resolveOwningPluginIdsForProvider /
resolveExternalAuthProfilesWithPlugins) self-service a snapshot once
at the public entry, then thread it as a separate required arg
through resolvePluginProviderLoadBase,
resolveExplicitProviderOwnerPluginIds, and the setup/runtime load
state helpers. Inner reads change from
'params.pluginMetadataSnapshot?.x' to 'snapshot.x', no more
enrichedParams clone. loadPluginManifestRegistryForInstalledIndex
fires drop ~685 -> ~10 per cold start.
- Bundled-channel / auto-enable chain accepts an optional
PluginDiscoveryResult. discoverOpenClawPlugins is fired once during
snapshot building (resolveInstalledPluginIndexRegistry already
produced it internally; now bubbled up through
loadInstalledPluginIndexWithDiscovery, PluginRegistrySnapshotResult,
and onto PluginMetadataSnapshot.discovery). load-context reads
metadataSnapshot.discovery and passes it through
applyPluginAutoEnable, so the bundled-channel cascade
(collectConfiguredChannelIds, listBundledChannelIdsWith*,
listPotentialConfiguredChannelPresenceSignals) short-circuits
instead of each leaf re-firing discovery. Persisted-cache path is
unchanged: no discovery on the snapshot, downstream chain handles
its own fallback (pre-PR behavior on that path).
* test(plugins): isolate snapshot memo across tests that mock manifest registry
The snapshot memo is now process-scoped and effective (~98% hit rate).
Three test files were depending on cache misses (because the broken
cache returned them) — each test would set up its own
loadPluginManifestRegistry mock and expect a fresh derive. With the
cache fixed, an earlier test's mocked registry now leaks into later
tests in the same file.
- io.write-config.test.ts: afterEach now clears the snapshot memo so
the 'demo' plugin mocked in the first test does not survive into
'keeps shipped plugin install config records when index migration
fails', which expects an empty registry to surface the 'plugin not
found: demo' warning.
- gateway/model-pricing-cache.ts: resetGatewayModelPricingCacheForTest
also clears the memo. Tests in model-pricing-cache.test.ts assert
loadPluginManifestRegistryForInstalledIndex was called; the memo
hit otherwise skips the call.
- providers.test.ts: vi.doMock loadPluginMetadataSnapshot to wrap the
existing loadPluginManifestRegistryMock fixture. The plumbing
commit added an auto-fetch fall-through in
resolveOwningPluginIdsForProvider; without the mock, providers
tests hit real disk reads and return empty registries (which is
what surfaced as 9 unrelated-looking failures in the prior CI
run).
* fix(plugins): preserve setup.cliBackends owner matching in provider scan
resolveOwningPluginIdsForProvider now also checks plugin.setup?.cliBackends.
The pre-PR no-registry fallback used resolvePluginContributionOwners which
includes both top-level cliBackends and setup.cliBackends; the PR's manifest
scan replacement was missing the setup case.
* fix(plugins): inherit active registry workspaceDir before loading metadata snapshot
isPluginProvidersLoadInFlight and resolvePluginProviders now resolve
env and workspaceDir once at the entry point (falling back to
getActivePluginRegistryWorkspaceDir) and pass them into both
loadPluginMetadataSnapshot and resolvePluginProviderLoadBase. Pre-fix
the snapshot used params.workspaceDir raw while the load base inherited
the active workspace, so workspace-scoped provider plugins could be
absent from the snapshot manifest registry even though owner resolution
expected them.
Regression test asserts the snapshot mock receives the active
workspaceDir when the caller omits it.
* perf(gateway): thread discovery into applyPluginAutoEnable call sites
Every gateway applyPluginAutoEnable call now passes the snapshot's
PluginDiscoveryResult so the bundled-channel cascade (collectConfiguredChannelIds
→ listBundledChannelIdsWith* → listPotentialConfiguredChannelPresenceSignals)
short-circuits instead of each leaf re-firing discovery.
Startup-time sites pull discovery from the snapshot/lookup-table they already
hold:
- server-plugin-bootstrap.ts (pluginLookUpTable)
- server-startup-plugins.ts (pluginMetadataSnapshot)
- server-startup-config.ts (pluginMetadataSnapshot)
- server-plugins.ts (pluginLookUpTable, both call sites)
Per-RPC sites (server.impl getRuntimeConfig callback, server-methods/channels
status + start handlers, server-methods/send) source discovery via
getCurrentPluginMetadataSnapshot using the runtime config to validate
compatibility. Falls through to the original slow path when the snapshot is
absent or incompatible.
Summary:
- The branch adds a Google provider thinking-policy resolver and opt-in profile flag, updates shared thinking validation and cron/proof-policy tests, and adjusts ClawSweeper proof parsing.
- Reproducibility: yes. source-reproducible: current main applies the generic off-only profile before provider ... figured thinking through that resolver. I did not execute a live systemd cron run in this read-only review.
Automerge notes:
- PR branch already contained follow-up commit before automerge: fix: preserve Google Gemini 3 cron thinking
Validation:
- ClawSweeper review passed for head a6cd2e826e.
- Required merge gates passed before the squash merge.
Prepared head SHA: a6cd2e826e

Keep derived plugin metadata snapshots out of the process memo/current snapshot cache so newly added plugins under derived discovery paths are found without restart.
