Default-enable AI Planner in Host Agent; propose cloud-planner-proxy
- Host Agent now defaults AI_PLANNER_ENABLED=true (opt-out via env),
  scoped to apps/device-host-agent/host_agent/execution.py only; the
  shared runtime.planner_config default (disabled) is unchanged.
- Add openspec proposal for cloud-planner-proxy: centralize LLM
  provider config/credentials on the Cloud Control Plane and let the
  Host Agent proxy AI Planner decisions through it instead of holding
  provider API keys locally. Proposal only, no implementation yet.

Why

Today every Host Agent must hold its own LLM provider credentials (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY/OPENAI_API_KEY) and provider/model configuration locally, because runtime/ai_planner.py's AIPlanner builds an Anthropic/OpenAI SDK client directly inside the Host Agent process (runtime/tool_calling_client.py). With the Host Agent now defaulting AI planning to on, this means every edge deployment must independently provision, rotate, and secure a provider secret. Centralizing provider configuration and credentials in the Cloud Control Plane -- which already authenticates every Host Agent for heartbeat/claim/lease/result traffic -- removes per-edge secret sprawl and gives operators one place to change provider/model or rotate a key without touching any Host.

What Changes

  • Add a new Cloud Control Plane internal endpoint that accepts an AI Planner tool-calling decision request (system prompt, user prompt, optional screenshot, tool specs, timeout) from an authenticated Host Agent, calls the configured LLM provider using cloud-held credentials, and returns the resulting single tool-call decision.
  • Cloud API owns AI_PLANNER_PROVIDER/AI_PLANNER_MODEL/provider API keys as its own configuration; these are no longer required on the Host Agent when the new proxy transport is used.
  • Host Agent gains a new opt-in transport setting (proxy vs. direct-to-provider) and a new ToolCallingClient implementation that calls the cloud endpoint instead of constructing a local Anthropic/OpenAI SDK client. The existing direct-to-provider transport remains fully supported and is the default, so hosts that already run with a local provider key keep working unchanged.
  • Reuse the existing Host-scoped bearer credential (already used for heartbeat/claim/renew/result) for the new endpoint; no new auth scope.
  • Cloud API does not durably persist screenshot bytes or full prompt text from proxy requests beyond the lifetime of handling the request.

Capabilities

New Capabilities

  • cloud-planner-proxy: Cloud Control Plane internal endpoint and configuration that proxies AI Planner LLM tool-calling decisions on behalf of authenticated Host Agents, holding provider selection and credentials centrally instead of on each edge host.

Modified Capabilities

  • agent-runtime (capability defined by the not-yet-archived ai-planner-runtime change; this delta is written against that pending spec, matching the precedent set by edge-host-self-enrollment against the pending edge-host-enrollment spec): the "Pluggable dual-provider tool-calling abstraction" requirement is extended so the tool-calling client is selectable by transport (direct-to-provider vs. cloud-proxy) as well as by provider identity, and provider credentials become optional on the Host Agent when the cloud-proxy transport is selected.

Impact

  • packages/cloud-platform/cloud / apps/cloud-api: new internal API route + request/response models, new provider/credential configuration, and a new direct dependency on the anthropic/openai SDKs (currently only the root Runtime package depends on them -- this is new dependency and attack surface for the Cloud API).
  • apps/device-host-agent: new HostAgentClient method for the planner-decide call, a new ToolCallingClient implementation (constructed in the host_agent package, not runtime, to preserve the existing hexagonal boundary that forbids runtime from importing cloud or host_agent), and a new transport configuration setting.
  • runtime/tool_calling_client.py: no changes to the ToolCallingClient Protocol itself; the new implementation satisfies it structurally from outside the runtime package.
  • Docs: docs/CLOUD_DEPLOYMENT.md Runtime AI Planner section gains the proxy-transport configuration path and its trade-offs.
