Closes #17138

Thinking Path

Checked first for an appendable open PR touching either knowledge/connectors/__init__.py or autobot_shared/plugin_sdk/__init__.py — none exists. 66's own comment on #17138 already root-caused the general shape (eager package __init__ files pulling third-party deps into the migration-gate job's minimal install list) and named two chains explicitly: knowledge/connectors/__init__.py and middleware/__init__.py -> plugin_sdk/__init__.py -> loader.py. Took their warning seriously — a self-authored static import-graph walker "produced tidy, specific, plausible output" twice while being wrong — and verified every claim in this PR by actually running code (import-blocking scripts, negative controls), never by re-reading the fix.

What Changed

  • knowledge/connectors/registry.py: _LAZY_MODULES/_FEATURE_GATED_MODULES map connector type -> dotted module path. create()/get_registered_class() import only the ONE module a caller asks for; list_types()/registered_types() (the connector-picker UI's own "give me everything" call) import the full set. The feat(knowledge): Slack / Confluence / Jira KB ingestion connectors #10538 feature-flag gate for slack/confluence/jira/mock moved here from __init__.py's import-time check.
  • knowledge/connectors/__init__.py: no more import knowledge.connectors.<concrete connector> at all.
  • autobot_shared/plugin_sdk/loader.py: jsonschema imported inside the two functions that use it, not bound at module level.
  • knowledge/connectors/credential_store.py: _REFRESH_LOCK_TTL_MS/_REFRESH_WAIT_S/_REFRESH_POLL_S were eager module constants computed via a chain that imports knowledge.connectors.oauth_flow (itself importing aiohttp) — converted to functools.lru_cache'd functions, computed on first real OAuth-refresh use, not on module import. This is what made credential_store.py itself still need aiohttp even after the __init__.py fix.
  • knowledge/connectors/connector_batch_b_test.py: fixed a real regression the lazy-loading change exposed — its web_fetch stub (if "web_fetch" not in sys.modules) was a no-op before, because the eager __init__.py always imported the real web_fetch first; with lazy loading this file can be first, leaking the stub into every later test needing the real web_fetch.WebFetcher. Now pops the stub (and the now-poisoned knowledge.connectors.web_crawler module) once its own imports no longer need it.
  • .github/workflows/migration-gate.yml: removed defusedxml/jsonschema (verified empirically safe). Kept aiohttp/prometheus_client — verified they're STILL required via two more, unrelated eager __init__.py files this issue didn't scope to fix; filed as tech-debt(ci): autobot_shared.security and autobot_shared.monitoring eager __init__ still pull aiohttp/prometheus_client into migration-gate #17143.

Verification

  • Negative controls, not just re-reads: for every new lazy-import test and the repo-wide guard, git stash the fix, confirmed the test fails with the expected message, restored, confirmed it passes.
  • The actual failing import, blocked package-by-package: from api.secrets import _create_system_vault_secret with aiohttp/defusedxml/jsonschema import-blocked one at a time and all together — isolated exactly which of the four packages each chain needs, and confirmed defusedxml+jsonschema are fully covered by this PR while aiohttp+prometheus_client are not (traced both remaining chains to autobot_shared.security/autobot_shared.monitoring, neither touched here).
  • The real CI command: pytest --collect-only tests/migrations/test_secrets_coordinator.py with defusedxml/jsonschema import-blocked via a sitecustomize.py hook — 10 tests collected, no import error.
  • Full connectors suite regression hunt: pytest knowledge/connectors/ went from 3 pre-existing failures (confirmed via git stash, unrelated — a Python 3.10 datetime.fromisoformat "Z"-suffix issue) to 8 failed + 10 errors after the raw fix, traced every one to the web_fetch stub-leak above, fixed it, back to the same 3 pre-existing failures + 426 passed.
  • black/isort/flake8 clean on every touched file. File-size ceiling bumps for the 3 files that grew (credential_store.py 761->778, its test file 1032->1043, plugin_sdk/loader.py 687->696), re-measured via wc -l, both registries kept byte-identical.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Connector modules are now loaded only when needed, reducing unnecessary startup work.
    • Connector discovery and creation continue to support feature-gated connectors when enabled.
    • Plugin schema validation loads its validation support only when validation is requested.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Importing connector and plugin modules no longer unnecessarily loads unrelated third-party dependencies.
    • Existing connector creation, discovery, and validation behaviour is preserved.

…y, not at package init (#17138)

knowledge/connectors/__init__.py imported every connector module (and
therefore every connector's own third-party dependency: aiohttp for gdrive,
defusedxml for nextcloud) at package-import time. Python always runs a
package's __init__ before any of its submodules, so anything that touched a
SIBLING module with no connector dependency of its own -- credential_store.py,
which api.secrets needs for _create_system_vault_secret -- paid for all of
them anyway. Same root cause, different subsystem, in
autobot_shared/plugin_sdk/loader.py: a module-level jsonschema import,
reached via middleware/__init__.py -> plugin_sdk/__init__.py -> loader.py.
Both surfaced as a red "Secret Detection"/migration-tests check on unrelated
PRs (#16444: aiohttp; #17134: defusedxml, jsonschema) as each connector
gained a dependency the migration-gate job's deliberately minimal pip list
didn't have.

Fix: registry.ConnectorRegistry now resolves a connector's module lazily --
_LAZY_MODULES/_FEATURE_GATED_MODULES map type -> dotted module path,
imported on first create()/get_registered_class() for that one type, or on
first list_types()/registered_types() for the full set (the connector-picker
UI's own explicit "give me everything" call). The #10538 feature-flag gate
for slack/confluence/jira/mock moved from __init__.py's import-time check to
resolve-time. loader.py's two jsonschema-using functions import it locally
instead of binding _DRAFT_202012_VALIDATOR at module level.

Also fixed the one place credential_store.py itself needed a similar
treatment: _REFRESH_LOCK_TTL_MS/_REFRESH_WAIT_S/_REFRESH_POLL_S were eager
module constants computed via _token_timeout_s(), which imports
knowledge.connectors.oauth_flow (itself importing aiohttp) inside a
try/except -- but the constants' eager computation ran that import on every
module load regardless. Converted to functools.lru_cache'd functions,
computed on first real use (an actual OAuth refresh), not on import.

Found and fixed a real regression from the lazy-loading change itself:
knowledge/connectors/connector_batch_b_test.py installs a sys.modules stub
for web_fetch so its own connector imports succeed without a working
web_fetch config. Previously this was a no-op in practice -- the eager
__init__.py always won the race to import the REAL web_fetch first, long
before this test file's own `if "web_fetch" not in sys.modules` guard could
fire. With lazy loading, this file can be the FIRST thing to import
web_crawler.py, install the stub, and leak it into every later test needing
the real web_fetch.WebFetcher (test_web_crawler_acceptance.py,
connector_resilience_test.py, connector_redaction_functional_test.py all
failed this way). Fixed by popping the stub names AND the now-poisoned
knowledge.connectors.web_crawler module from sys.modules once this file's
own imports no longer need them.

Verified empirically, not by re-reading the fix, that removing aiohttp and
defusedxml/jsonschema from migration-gate.yml's install list is safe:
import-blocked each package one at a time against a fresh
`from api.secrets import _create_system_vault_secret` (the actual failing
import), and against `pytest --collect-only` on test_secrets_coordinator.py
directly. defusedxml and jsonschema are gone from the list. aiohttp and
prometheus_client stay -- confirmed they're STILL required via two more,
unrelated eager __init__.py files this issue did not scope to fix
(autobot_shared.security -> ssrf_guard.py; autobot_shared.monitoring ->
prometheus_metrics.py), filed as #17143 rather than silently left for the
next red run to rediscover.

Tests: 2 new lazy-import regression tests per package (subprocess-based --
sys.modules state in-process proves nothing about a fresh import), a
repo-wide AST guard (repo_tests/no_eager_connector_or_jsonschema_import_17138_test.py)
against either eager import returning, and updated the existing
credential_store tests for the function-not-constant contract. All verified
against a negative control (git stash the fix, confirm the new tests fail;
restore, confirm they pass).

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change makes connector and plugin schema imports lazy. ConnectorRegistry loads connectors on demand, while credential refresh configuration defers OAuth imports. Tests, migration-gate configuration, AST checks, and changelog content cover the new import behaviour.

The package no longer imports concrete connectors at package import time. ConnectorRegistry loads mapped and enabled connectors during resolution or listing.
Deferred credential refresh configuration
autobot-backend/knowledge/connectors/credential_store.py, autobot-backend/knowledge/connectors/tests/test_credential_store.py
OAuth refresh settings now use cached accessors. Existing refresh call sites and tests use the new accessors.
Deferred plugin schema validation
autobot_shared/plugin_sdk/loader.py, autobot_shared/plugin_sdk/loader_lazy_jsonschema_17138_test.py
jsonschema is imported inside validation functions. Schema validation and PluginLoadError behaviour remain covered.

Disabled connectors can remain available after registration, and connector tests can contaminate later tests. These material issues should be fixed before merge; the AST guard also needs complete regression coverage.

Explanation

Issue #17138 requires the migration-gate install list to remove both aiohttp and defusedxml. The change removes defusedxml, but retains aiohttp. The summary states that aiohttp remains for eager imports in autobot_shared.security, not for connectors. The lazy connector registry, credential-store deferral, subprocess regression tests, and AST guard satisfy the other coding requirements. The evidence does not show the migration gate passing with the required dependency removal.

Restore the web_crawler registry entry during cleanup.

Importing knowledge.connectors.web_crawler registers the stub-bound WebCrawlerConnector. Removing only the module leaves that class in ConnectorRegistry._connectors. ConnectorRegistry.create() and get_registered_class() then skip the lazy import and can return the stub-bound class to later tests.

Save the previous entry before importing the module. Restore it during cleanup, or remove the entry if none existed.

Apply feature gating to cached connector lookups.

When connector_type is already in _connectors, _ensure_loaded() returns before checking _FEATURE_GATED_MODULES. A connector resolved while enabled can therefore remain available through create() and get_registered_class() after its flag is disabled. A direct import also registers the class without checking the flag. list_types() and registered_types() expose the cached class for the same reason.

Use one shared enabled-check for all resolution and listing paths. Apply it after loading and before returning cached classes. Keep disabled classes in _connectors so re-enabling the flag exposes them again.

Cover relative and guarded module imports. _module_level_import_targets currently scans only direct tree.body imports. It misses from .gdrive import ..., because the AST stores gdrive with level=1, and from . import gdrive, because node.module is None. It also misses imports inside module-level try or executable if suites.

Normalise relative ImportFrom nodes and inspect executable module-level suites without entering functions or classes. Add a positive fixture for a relative or guarded import and a negative fixture for a function-local import. This is a regression-test gap, not a current eager-import failure.

Reviewed. Verdict: APPROVE.

1. Laziness is real, mutation-tested myself (same method as #17140): in a scratch worktree, restored the old eager import knowledge.connectors.<connector> block in __init__.py and re-ran connectors_lazy_import_17138_test.py — test_importing_credential_store_pulls_in_no_concrete_connector and test_importing_the_connectors_package_itself_pulls_in_no_concrete_connector both correctly FAILED (the third, resolution-still-works test correctly still passed). Reverted, clean 3/3. Did the same for the AST guard: restored import jsonschema at module level in plugin_sdk/loader.py, and test_plugin_loader_does_not_import_jsonschema_at_module_level correctly failed; reverted, clean. Both negative controls are real, not decorative.

2. migration-gate.yml removals verified empirically, not by re-reading the comment. Used Python import-blocking (same method as bb's) to simulate defusedxml+jsonschema as uninstalled and imported api.secrets fresh: succeeds. Then blocked aiohttp alone: import fails. Blocked prometheus_client alone: import fails. Confirms the two removed packages are genuinely unreachable now, and the two kept ones are still genuinely required (the #17143-tracked chains through autobot_shared.security/autobot_shared.monitoring).

3. The web_fetch stub cleanup is complete, checked by breaking it deliberately. Ran connector_batch_b_test.py together with test_web_crawler_acceptance.py, connector_redaction_functional_test.py, and connector_resilience_test.py in one session: 74 pass. Then removed just the new cleanup block (kept the stub-install half) and re-ran the same four files: 3 failures + 10 errors, landing in exactly those three "other" files — reproducing the leak bb described, in the exact locations named. Restored, clean 74/74 again.

Stash check: git stash list on the shared repo currently shows 114 entries. All look like a long-standing historical accumulation (issue numbers going back to the 5000s/6000s) — nothing I can identify as freshly created for tonight's work, and nothing here is mine. Left every entry untouched, flagging per your instruction rather than guessing which one (if any) is bb's leftover.

Nothing blocking.

Measured population 6884 after merging main (#17043-17056 vehicle files)
plus this PR own 3 new test files -- this guard SCANNED glob has no
_test.py exclusion. Population minus the unchanged growth allowance,
same formula as the three prior re-pins in this same file.

…idden line citations (#17147)

Shards 6 and 7 failed on one root cause wearing two shapes: line-number
references that the consolidated tree moved out from under.

Shard 6 -- #17145's lazy-import refactor shifted the symbols THREAT_MODEL.md
anchors at. import_module 541 -> 550, spec_from_file_location 610 -> 619,
ConnectorCredentialStore 178 -> 195, _require_owner 626 -> 643. Each new line
read from the guard's own report of where the symbol actually is, or measured
directly; none estimated. _require_owner had already been re-pointed once
tonight, 604 -> 626 on #17134, and has moved again.

Shard 7 -- #17140's new comments cited AUTOBOT_REFERENCE.md:64, which
repo_tests/comment_line_number_citations_test.py forbids outright: a line
reference goes wrong an order of magnitude more often than a symbol one
(#15877). Now cites the document and the claim, which is what a reader needs
to find anyway.

Neither failure was visible on the individual PRs. #17145 moved the code and
#17140 wrote the citations, and only the merged tree contains both -- the same
class of cross-PR interaction that tripped the reach floor on this vehicle.

tech-debt(ci): the connectors package __init__ imports every connector eagerly, so each one's third-party dep lands in the migration-gate install list
