## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work > - Connections is the subsystem that defines which external apps and MCP-style integrations operators can browse, configure, and run > - The v3 schema core in #9958 added stable connection identities, auth metadata, and grant-aware contracts, but the app catalog still used the older gallery shape > - The product needs a richer, typed AppDefinition catalog so browsing and setup can render provider-specific auth and configuration requirements consistently > - This pull request moves the Wave 1 app catalog onto generated AppDefinition data and carries that shape through shared types, server lookup paths, and app connection UI > - The benefit is that follow-up runtime and wizard work can build against one catalog contract instead of local-only mock/gallery data ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #9958. No public GitHub issue exists for this branch. This is the catalog layer for the Connections v3 stack after the schema-core foundation in #9958. ## What Changed - Adds generated AppDefinition data for the Wave 1 catalog and ingestion reporting. - Replaces the legacy tool app gallery exports with AppDefinition-centered shared contracts, validators, and tests. - Updates server tool-access lookup behavior to use the AppDefinition catalog. - Updates app connection UI surfaces and tests to consume AppDefinition-backed catalog data. - Documents the catalog ingestion workflow in the connector playbook. ## Verification - `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links` - `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts packages/shared/src/app-definitions-url.test.ts ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts` ## Risks - Medium: this changes the catalog contract used by shared, server, and UI app connection surfaces. - Catalog data quality matters because generated definitions now drive browse/setup display. - Follow-up runtime and wizard PRs must rebase on this branch or on master after this lands. > For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR.
