## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work > - Chat agents run with agent credentials, and plugin management routes are board-only > - A board-only denial tells the agent the denial is final and links the board page that holds the control, when the page is known (#20151) > - Plugin routes had no known page, so the denial said "link a page only if you already know its route" > - In a chat eval, an agent asked to finish configuring a plugin got this denial and kept searching the API for about two minutes, so it did not answer in time > - This pull request names the plugin manager, or that plugin's settings page, in the denial > - The benefit is that the agent can hand the step to the person with a working link right away ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #20151 **What happened** An agent that called a board-only plugin route (for example `GET /api/plugins` or `POST /api/plugins/:pluginId/config`) got the generic remediation with no page. In the `plugins.configure-plugin` chat eval, the agent kept calling `search_api` for another plugin route after the 403 and did not reply within the 150-second window. **Expected behavior** The denial names the page where a board user does the step: the plugin manager (`/<prefix>/company/settings/instance/plugins`) or the plugin's settings page (`/<prefix>/company/settings/instance/plugins/<id or key>`). No link is given when the operator hides plugin management (`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS=instance.plugins`). **Steps to reproduce** 1. Install a plugin. 2. As an agent, call `POST /api/plugins/<pluginId>/config`. 3. See a 403 `board_access_required` remediation without a plugin page. ## What Changed - `server/src/routes/authz.ts`: board-only denials on `/api/plugins` routes link the plugin manager, or the plugin's settings page when the path names a plugin UUID or key. The plugin settings page accepts either. No link when plugin management is hidden. - `server/src/routes/authz.ts`: every agent board-only denial now says to stop working on the denied step and reply now. With the plugin link alone, the eval agent still searched the API for two more minutes. - `server/src/routes/authz.ts`: any manifest-format plugin key (including dot-free keys such as `my-plugin`) gets a direct link; plugin manager endpoints (`examples`, `install`, `tools`, `ui-contributions`) link the plugin list. - `ui/src/pages/PluginSettings.tsx`: custom settings slots match by plugin key as well as plugin id, so a page opened by key shows the plugin's own settings. - `server/src/__tests__/board-access-denial.test.ts`: cases for list, install, config by id, disable by key, a dot-free key, manager endpoints, and the hidden-settings case. `ui/src/pages/PluginSettings.test.tsx`: opening the page by key mounts that plugin's settings slot. - Merged `master`, keeping its project access-members denial cases. ## Verification - `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/board-access-denial.test.ts src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts src/__tests__/execution-workspace-runtime-lease-route.test.ts`: 241 passed after merging master. - `cd ui && npx vitest run src/pages/PluginSettings.test.tsx`: 9 passed; the new key-route case fails without the `PluginSettings` change. - `cd server && pnpm typecheck`: passes. ## Risks - Low risk. Only the remediation text of agent board-only denials on `/api/plugins` routes changes. Board users and authorization do not change. ## Model Used - Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), tool use and code execution in Claude Code. ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability details) - [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate planned core work - [x] I have searched GitHub for duplicate or related PRs and linked them above - [x] I have either (a) linked existing issues with `Fixes: #` / `Closes #` / `Refs #` OR (b) described the issue in-PR following the relevant issue template - [x] I have not referenced internal/instance-local Paperclip issues or links (only public GitHub `#NNN` / `github.com/paperclipai/paperclip` URLs) - [x] My branch name describes the change (e.g. `docs/...`, `fix/...`) and contains no internal Paperclip ticket id or instance-derived details - [x] I have run tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented any risks above - [ ] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [ ] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
