Add sources/glean-vnext/ as a source plugin and merge it into the existing
`glean` emitted plugin (from: array) for claude/cursor/codex. The shipped
`glean` plugin now coexists with the portable skills: it bundles a local
stdio MCP server (glean-local) exposing find_skills/run_tool/setup, the
glean_run skill, and an auto-approve PreToolUse hook. A user may still
connect a remote Glean MCP server separately; the local server is named
glean-local to avoid clashing with a remote glean.
Source plugin layout (sources/glean-vnext/):
- plugin.pluginpack.json: files map (dist/index.js, start.mjs, package.json)
- .mcp.json: base config (glean-local, \${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/start.mjs)
- targets/codex/.mcp.json: codex override (./start.mjs + cwd ".")
- src/ (15 TS files) + build.mjs: server source + esbuild bundler
- tests/ (14 vitest files): server unit tests
- skills/glean_run, hooks/, start.mjs, package.json (runtime)
Build wiring:
- build:bundle runs esbuild (src -> sources/glean-vnext/dist/index.js)
- prebuild now chains sync-changelog && build:bundle before pluginpack build
- test:bundle / typecheck:bundle run the server suite scoped to the source dir
- deps: @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, yaml (runtime); esbuild, tsx, typescript,
vitest, @types/node (dev); overrides pin hono/esbuild/vite for CVEs
config (pluginpack.config.ts):
- claude glean: from += glean-vnext, components += hooks
- cursor glean: from += glean-vnext, components += hooks
- codex glean: from += glean-vnext (no hooks; matches existing codex shape)
Hook: server env lookup now checks mcpServers["glean-local"] first, falls back
to the legacy "glean" key.
Tests: npm test (build+validate) green (69/65/56 managed files);
npm run test:bundle 189/189; typecheck clean.
Requires @gleanwork/pluginpack@^0.8.0 (per-target MCP override + plugin-root
files features). Until published, use npm link @gleanwork/pluginpack against
the pluginpack branch.

Summary
Moves the glean-vnext runtime MCP server out of
glean-experimental-pluginsinto this repo as a source plugin (sources/glean-vnext/) and folds it into the existinggleanemitted plugin via thefrom:array for claude/cursor/codex. The shippedgleanplugin now coexists with the portable skills: it bundles a local stdio MCP server (glean-local) exposingfind_skills/run_tool/setup, theglean_runskill, and an auto-approve PreToolUse hook. Users may still connect a remote Glean MCP server; the local server is namedglean-localto avoid a name clash.Draft PRs
