# Register an extension

> Makes a program at an HTTPS address a principal of this home: it may then observe the event stream, transform what the agent assembles, and occupy the slots it claims. **This response carries the registration's secret**, and it is not stored anywhere a read can reach — a caller that loses it rotates rather than re-reads. Requires `extensions:manage`, which is what "the home's owner" means in the mechanism; an ordinary member is answered 403 NRY-0028.

The endpoint must be `https://` with no exception, loopback included, and the address it resolves to is judged before anything is stored: a loopback or private address is refused unless an operator wrote that range into this host's configuration, and a link-local, metadata, unspecified, multicast or NAT64-wrapped address is refused with no configuration able to admit it. A second claimant on an exclusive slot is answered 409 NRY-0006 naming the one that already holds it — **unless this host's `[extensions] prefer` configuration already names one of the two contesting registrations as that slot's winner.** That entry is the explicit tie-break, and it is the only thing that admits a second claimant here: without it, no winner may be picked implicitly, so the registration is refused. Where it is present the second registration is stored, the named registration occupies the slot, and the other one stays registered, stays enabled, keeps every other slot it claims and simply stops occupying the contested one. Revoking the occupant returns the slot to the survivor.

**A slot this write claims is stored CLAIMED AND UNSERVED (a `model-supplier` given `models` in this body serves them already), and this write reaches the endpoint NOT AT ALL.** A discovery call made here would be signed under the secret this response has not handed over yet. Register in ONE write, take the secret from this response, configure the far side with it, and send `refreshModels: true`. On an enabled row — which is what this write leaves behind unless it asked for otherwise — that update reads `/models` under a secret both sides hold by then, and is the same road that re-reads the list afterwards.

**Until that read the slot is claimed and offers no model.** It is in `slots`, `models` is ABSENT — the property is omitted from the response rather than served as an empty array — and no picker, no turn and no spend ceiling can select anything from it: the catalogue skips a claimed-and-unserved row exactly as it skips a disabled one, so nothing half-registered is selectable. What this write still decides is everything this home can decide alone — the arity above, and a 409 for a supplier whose models would answer under a provider name this host's catalogue already carries. Stating `models` on this write is the one way to register a supplier already serving, because those are on the row rather than at the far side.

**A `tool-server` slot is stored the same way, for the same reason.** The `/tools` listing a tool name is judged against would be signed under that same unhanded secret, so it is not read here either. The listing is read on the first write that follows under a secret both sides hold — a change whose resulting row is enabled and that moves the `endpoint` or claims the slot — and on the tool sweep's own clock regardless. Until a list is read this home serves none of that registration's tools, and a name it would contest is refused on the write that reads it rather than on this one.

An operator install rides this same operation under the plane's operator credential rather than a token carrying `extensions:manage`. A home holding no operator credential — every BYOC and every local deployment — cannot authenticate such a caller at all.

    The contract between the Narya host and every client. One long-lived host

    write drives the same one.


    Requests authenticate with a bearer token issued by the identity provider
    the host is configured with. An operation that declares another security
    scheme also accepts that credential. A request without a valid credential
    gets 401 with NRY-0011. A caller whose role lacks the permission an
    operation needs gets 403 with NRY-0028.


    Submitting a message returns 202 with a turn id. Everything the turn

      summary: Register an extension
      description: >-
        Makes a program at an HTTPS address a principal of this home: it may
        then observe the event stream, transform what the agent assembles, and
        occupy the slots it claims. **This response carries the registration's
        secret**, and it is not stored anywhere a read can reach — a caller that
        loses it rotates rather than re-reads. Requires `extensions:manage`,
        which is what "the home's owner" means in the mechanism; an ordinary
        member is answered 403 NRY-0028.


        The endpoint must be `https://` with no exception, loopback included,
        and the address it resolves to is judged before anything is stored: a
        loopback or private address is refused unless an operator wrote that
        range into this host's configuration, and a link-local, metadata,
        unspecified, multicast or NAT64-wrapped address is refused with no
        configuration able to admit it. A second claimant on an exclusive slot
        is answered 409 NRY-0006 naming the one that already holds it — **unless
        this host's `[extensions] prefer` configuration already names one of the
        two contesting registrations as that slot's winner.** That entry is the
        explicit tie-break, and it is the only thing that admits a second
        claimant here: without it, no winner may be picked implicitly, so the
        registration is refused. Where it is present the second registration is
        stored, the named registration occupies the slot, and the other one
        stays registered, stays enabled, keeps every other slot it claims and
        simply stops occupying the contested one. Revoking the occupant returns
        the slot to the survivor.


        **A slot this write claims is stored CLAIMED AND UNSERVED (a
        `model-supplier` given `models` in this body serves them already), and
        this write reaches the endpoint NOT AT ALL.** A discovery call made here
        would be signed under the secret this response has not handed over yet.
        Register in ONE write, take the secret from this response, configure the
        far side with it, and send `refreshModels: true`. On an enabled row —
        which is what this write leaves behind unless it asked for otherwise —
        that update reads `/models` under a secret both sides hold by then, and
        is the same road that re-reads the list afterwards.


        **Until that read the slot is claimed and offers no model.** It is in
        `slots`, `models` is ABSENT — the property is omitted from the response
        rather than served as an empty array — and no picker, no turn and no
        spend ceiling can select anything from it: the catalogue skips a
        claimed-and-unserved row exactly as it skips a disabled one, so nothing
        half-registered is selectable. What this write still decides is
        everything this home can decide alone — the arity above, and a 409 for a
        supplier whose models would answer under a provider name this host's
        catalogue already carries. Stating `models` on this write is the one way
        to register a supplier already serving, because those are on the row
        rather than at the far side.


        **A `tool-server` slot is stored the same way, for the same reason.**
        The `/tools` listing a tool name is judged against would be signed under
        that same unhanded secret, so it is not read here either. The listing is
        read on the first write that follows under a secret both sides hold — a
        change whose resulting row is enabled and that moves the `endpoint` or
        claims the slot — and on the tool sweep's own clock regardless. Until a
        list is read this home serves none of that registration's tools, and a
        name it would contest is refused on the write that reads it rather than
        on this one.


        An operator install rides this same operation under the plane's operator
        credential rather than a token carrying `extensions:manage`. A home
        holding no operator credential — every BYOC and every local deployment —
        cannot authenticate such a caller at all.

            and is declared, so a tie is an order nobody declared: two
            extensions rewriting one tool call compose, and which goes first

            same reason: there is never an implicit winner, and a source cannot

            any turn: the catalogue skips such a row exactly as it skips a
            disabled one, so a slot nobody has served yet is not selectable and
            not a provider anybody sees.

        servingTools:
          type: boolean
          description: >-
            Whether this home is serving the tools this registration publishes
            RIGHT NOW — that is, whether a model in this home can call them.
            Present on every extension that occupies the `tool-server` slot and
            absent on every one that does not, because it is a fact about that
            claim and about nothing else.


            It is false far more often than an owner expects, and that is the
            reason this field exists. The write that registers a tool server
            reaches the endpoint not at all, so the slot is stored CLAIMED AND
            UNSERVED and stays that way until a sweep has read the endpoint's
            tool listing; and a listing whose names collide with tools this home
            already serves is refused by the tool registry, which leaves the
            registration standing and publishing nothing.


            It is the last answer this home RECORDED, never a guess made at read
            time, so it survives a restart: a home brought back up under a
            standing collision still says it is refusing those tools rather than
            reporting them unread.
        notServingBecause:
          type: string
          description: >-
            Why this home is not serving that registration's tools, in this
            host's own words — never a sentence the far side wrote. Present
            exactly when `servingTools` is false, and absent when it is true,
            because a reason for something that is not the case would be the two
            fields disagreeing.


            It can say: that no sweep of this home has read the listing yet
            (every claim starts here, and a host built without a
            registered-extension pool stays here); that the tool registry
            refused the listing because another source already owns one of those
            names, naming both claimants; that the endpoint could not be reached
            or would not answer; that the listing carried no tool this host can
            serve; or that the owner has the registration switched off.
        enabled:

            The owner's switch. A disabled registration is still listed, and
            still says where it pointed, because a registry that hid one would
            answer "what reads our conversations" with less than the truth.

    ExtensionModelPricing:

        What a model costs, in US dollars per million tokens, carried through
        unconverted so a value here reads against a published price page without
        arithmetic.


        **A model registered without one is refused, and zero is a price.**
        Absent means unknown, and a turn on an unpriced model reports no cost at
        all. A model that is genuinely free says so by carrying zeros.


        The field is OPTIONAL in `ExtensionModel` rather than required, and that
        is what makes the refusal reachable: a required object generates as a
        value that cannot be absent, so an omitted price would arrive
        indistinguishable from a price of zero and be stored as free.
