Addendum to plan Step 1, which stays open: the four bullets are still
`ubesvart` and the step's Verify still exits 1. Nothing measured changed.
The previous instruction was one sentence -- "upload via Customize -> Plugins,
run probe-versjon, check whether probe-tools appears" -- which assumed the
reader already knew where each of those lives and what counts as an answer.
The walkthrough now lives in the file the answers get written into, rather than
in a chat message that scrolls away.
Every UI path and caveat is sourced from research/03, not invented: the
install-from-file and drag-into-chat routes, connectors appearing under the
plugin's connectors page rather than as skills, the stale-cache issue (#69020)
that makes the 0.0.1 version check load-bearing, and the upload-does-not-
survive-relaunch report (#65426).
Two distinctions are called out because getting them wrong would produce a
confident wrong answer:
- `- python3:` measures the SANDBOX interpreter, not the host's. Cowork runs
shell commands in the VM or in the cloud. It is still the right thing to
measure, but it says nothing about the virtualenv Step 2 built.
- `- Host-MCP:` does run on the host, since local MCP servers were moved out
of the sandbox in May 2026. A `ja` there is what decision 7 rests on, so it
requires both that the connector is listed and that probe_ping answers --
"present but mute" is recorded as nei with a note, because absent and mute
point at different causes.
Section A is ordered first on purpose: cloud sessions are documented not to run
local MCP servers, so `sky` plus a `ja` on Host-MCP would contradict the
documentation and is a more interesting result than either answer alone.
The verify command in section F was executed as written from the rendered
document, not just pasted in: exit 1, as it must be while the probe is open.
