Hephaestus Cloud Routing (my own cloud / 보관함)

Route the request through the signed-in user's OWN Agentlas cloud packages only. Never guess an agent yourself when this skill is active — the router/Hub decides.

0. Scope rule

/hep-cloud is owner-scoped: it queries ONLY the authenticated owner's own cloud packages (보관함) via the Hub owner filter (cargo.*). It does not search the public marketplace and does not search local private/plugin cards.

• The user's own cloud packages are restorable/owned by them, call-priced at a

flat 1 credit per call.

• For the public marketplace (others' published, per-call-priced agents), use

the hephaestus-network skill or /hep-network / --hub-only instead.

• For the combined search (local + own cloud + Hub, each priced by origin), use

plain-language routing (hephaestus route).

1. Resolve the runner

Run this resolution in a shell and use the first hit:

RUNNER=""
for c in \
  "$HOME/.agentlas/runtime/current/bin/hephaestus" \
  ./bin/hephaestus
do [ -x "$c" ] && RUNNER="$c" && break; done
if [ -z "$RUNNER" ]; then
  for cache in \
    "$HOME/.claude/plugins/cache/agentlas-core-engine/hephaestus" \
    "$HOME/.codex/plugins/cache/agentlas-core-engine/hephaestus"; do
    newest="$(ls -d "$cache"/*/bin/hephaestus 2>/dev/null | sort -V | tail -1)"
    [ -n "$newest" ] && [ -x "$newest" ] && RUNNER="$newest" && break
  done
fi

If no runner exists, tell the user to run the one-touch installer: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/agentlas-ai/Hephaestus/main/scripts/install-all-runtimes.sh | bash

If shell execution is unavailable in this harness but MCP is, call the agentlas_authenticate tool first, then call the hephaestus_cloud_search tool from the hephaestus-network MCP server instead.

2. Agentlas sign-in (required)

The owner cloud is sign-in-gated. Before routing, ensure Agentlas is signed in:

if [ "${HEPHAESTUS_AUTH_AUTOPOPUP:-1}" != "0" ]; then
  "$RUNNER" auth ensure --timeout 180 >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
fi

This opens the user's default browser only when there is no valid local sign-in yet, and reuses a saved sign-in silently. For CI/headless checks only, set HEPHAESTUS_AUTH_AUTOPOPUP=0 and skip this step.

3. Route (owner cloud only)

"$RUNNER" cloud "" --project .

hephaestus cloud is shorthand for hephaestus route "" --scope cloud (owner-scoped Hub query; implies --hub-only). Via MCP, call hephaestus_cloud_search instead.

4. Act on the JSON decision (scope: "cloud")

• action: "hub_candidates" — these are the user's OWN cloud packages

(hub.results[].slug, name). Report them, and on the user's pick invoke that package with the original request (call-priced at 1 credit).

• action: "clarify" — ask clarify_question with the candidate list and

re-route with the answer (still cloud-scoped).

• action: "propose_new" — no matching package in the user's cloud. Offer to

search the public marketplace (/hep-network / --hub-only) or to build a new agent via /hep-build.

• action: "refuse" — explain reasons (for example, loop guard). Do not retry.

5. Hard rules

• Never report public marketplace agents or local private/plugin cards as if

they were the user's own cloud packages.

• The router only chooses a package or fetches a BYOM bundle; it does not

execute payments, deletes, publishes, file writes, or external submissions.

• For actual tool execution, follow the host runtime's safety and permission

model. Report the routing receipt_id in your final message.
