What

Every claude-code workspace logs at boot:

Failed to load adaptor module /configs/plugins/<name>/adapters/claude_code.py: No module named 'plugins_registry'
plugin '<name>' has no adaptor for runtime 'claude_code' — files dropped at /configs/plugins/<name> but no tools/sub-agents were wired in

Affects all 8 plugins in the cp-team / core-team-only template (ecc, molecule-audit-trail, molecule-careful-bash, molecule-dev, molecule-prompt-watchdog, molecule-skill-code-review, molecule-skill-llm-judge, superpowers).

Why it matters

The workspace BOOTS but operates without its plugin guardrails. Tools like molecule-careful-bash (refuse force-push to main) are silently no-op'd. Skills like code-review are silently unwired.

This is a regression from when plugins worked. Likely cause: the loader expects plugins_registry Python package on PYTHONPATH but the workspace image doesn't install it.

Repro

  1. Boot any workspace with runtime: claude-code and any plugin in workspace.yaml
  2. docker logs <ws-container> shows the import errors

Fix shape

Either:

  1. Ensure plugins_registry Python package is installed in the workspace base image
  2. Or change the adapter loading path so claude-code adapters don't depend on a registry module

Severity

MED — silent erosion of safety guarantees the platform claims to provide

Tier

tier:medium
