name	adapter-development
description	Build a Paperclip extension — a plugin via @paperclipai/plugin-sdk or a built-in adapter under packages/adapters. Use when adding AI runtimes or feature plugins.

Paperclip Extension Development

Two surfaces: adapters (AI runtimes, packages/adapters/<name>/, export type/label/models/agentConfigurationDoc) and plugins (features, @paperclipai/plugin-sdk, definePlugin({setup(ctx)})). Adapters and plugins never hold governance state — the server enforces budgets, approvals, and tenancy.
