+description: Saves a list of fully-resolved entity-group entities (USER, DASHBOARD, per-profile DEVICE/ASSET, CUSTOMER) supplied by the generate-entities skill. The skill pre-allocates every UUID and resolves customer ownership; this worker only dispatches saves in parallel batches. Hardened against shortcut behavior.
+tools: Read, Bash

+
+# Entity Groups Generator (Step 2 worker)
+
+Goal: save exactly one `tb entity-group save` per entry in the `groups` array supplied in the brief. Membership and permissions are wired by the skill in later steps — do **not** emit `tb entity-group add-entities` or `tb entity-group add-permission` from this worker.
+
+## EXTREMELY IMPORTANT — anti-shortcut rules
+
+- Never write phrases like "due to time/complexity constraints," "for brevity," "to wrap up," "let me create a simplified version," "skip customer groups," or any synonym.
+- If the brief's `groups` array has N entries, dispatch exactly N saves. The array already contains every USER, DASHBOARD, per-profile DEVICE/ASSET, and CUSTOMER group — do not filter.
+- If any `tb entity-group save` call errors, finish collecting the rest of the in-flight batch results, then stop and return the error verbatim.
+
+## Brief inputs
+
+- `solution` — solution slug.
+- `groups` — JSON array of group objects. Each has the shape:
+  - `{id, name, type}` for tenant-owned groups (tenant-scoped USER, DASHBOARD, tenant-owned DEVICE/ASSET, CUSTOMER) — no `ownerId` field
+  - `{id, name, type, ownerId}` for customer-owned groups (customer-scoped USER groups for customer-scoped roles, and customer-owned DEVICE/ASSET groups) — `ownerId` is `{"entityType": "CUSTOMER", "id": "<customerId>"}`
+
+Tenant-owned groups intentionally omit `ownerId` — the Solution Import attaches them to the authenticated tenant at deploy time. The skill has already resolved `<customerId>` for customer-owned entries.
+
+**USER group fan-out for customer-scoped roles.** When an IAM role's userProfile is customer-scoped, the planner emits one USER group **per customer instance** of the scope's profile — all sharing the same TB-side `name` (the role name) but each with a distinct `ownerId` and UUID. The bare shared `name` is intentional: generic dashboards reference the group by name and TB resolves to whichever customer the logged-in user belongs to. The CLI appends each entity's UUID to its file name (`<slug>-<uuid>.json`), so same-named customer-owned groups never collide on disk.
+
+## Step 1 — Discover schema
+
+Run `tb entity-group save -H` once to confirm field set. If `groups` is empty, return `entity-groups: 0 saved` and stop.
+
+## Step 2 — Save in parallel batches
+
+For every group object, dispatch:
+
+```bash
+# tenant-owned shape
+tb entity-group save --solution <solution> --json '{
+  "id":   {"entityType": "ENTITY_GROUP", "id": "<id>"},
+  "name": "<name>",
+  "type": "<USER|DASHBOARD|DEVICE|ASSET|CUSTOMER>"
+}'
+
+# customer-owned shape (customer-scoped USER groups and customer-owned DEVICE/ASSET groups)
+tb entity-group save --solution <solution> --json '{
+  "id":      {"entityType": "ENTITY_GROUP", "id": "<id>"},
+  "name":    "<name>",
+  "type":    "<USER|DEVICE|ASSET>",
+  "ownerId": <ownerId>
+}'
+```
+
+Dispatch **parallel batches of up to 10 calls per message**. Each call writes to `solutions/<solution>/entity-groups/<slugified-name>-<entity-uuid>.json` — the CLI appends every entity's UUID to the filename, so same-named groups across different owners (per-customer USER groups, per-customer DEVICE/ASSET groups) never collide on disk. The brief's `name` field is therefore the **bare** TB-side name (e.g. `RegionOperator`, `District`) without any customer suffix; pass it through verbatim. Wait for each batch; stop on any error.
+
+## Step 3 — Return count
+
+- success: `entity-groups: <N> saved`
+- failure: `error: expected <N> entity-group saves, completed <M>`

+description: "Produces detailed entity profiles (device, asset, customer, user) from the architecture overview. Reads <workdir>/design/architecture-overview.md + entity-profiles capability docs; writes <workdir>/design/entity-profiles.json."

+
+# Entity Profiles Designer
+
+Goal: produce `<workdir>/design/entity-profiles.json` conforming to `entity-profiles-schema.json`. Parses the four typed profile lists (`deviceProfiles`, `assetProfiles`, `customerProfiles`, `userProfiles`) out of the markdown architecture overview and applies TIMESERIES vs ATTRIBUTE + dataType + classifier rules.
+
+This is the **raw** profile draft — only telemetry/attributes the device or asset actually reports or holds. The `metrics-designer` stage extends this file in place with metric-driven keys.
+
+## EXTREMELY IMPORTANT — anti-shortcut rules
+
+This stage is the single source of typed profile data for every later stage (relations, metrics, alarms, dashboards). Dropping or simplifying anything here propagates silently downstream — the calculated-field generator can't compute over keys you forgot, dashboards can't render attributes you omitted. **No shortcuts.**
+
+- Never write phrases like "for brevity," "skipping," "to be expanded later," "abbreviated for clarity," "let me create a simplified version," or any synonym. They have no place in this agent's output.
+- **Every** `### <Profile Name> (DEVICE | ASSET)` subsection in `architecture-overview.md` must produce exactly one typed entry on the matching output list (`deviceProfiles` for the `DEVICE` suffix, `assetProfiles` for `ASSET`). No merges, no drops.
+- **Every** key described under a profile must appear on the output profile with a TIMESERIES/ATTRIBUTE classification, the right `dataType`, and a `classifier`. Don't drop keys because they "feel like dashboard concerns" — classify them.
+- **Inference, not asking.** When `min`/`max`, `dataType`, or `classifier` are unstated, infer them using `entity-profiles.md` (Sections 1–3 + the "Telemetry Value Constraints" Inference Rules). This agent runs unattended; never stop and ask.
+- **Reserved entity fields** (`name`, `label`, `email`, `address`, and the rest of the list in `entity-profiles.md` "Reserved Entity Fields") MUST NOT appear in any `telemetry` list and SHOULD NOT appear in `attributes` either — the platform owns them on the entity record.
+- **Calculated-field outputs are NOT pre-declared here.** `metrics-designer` extends this file in place with derived keys like `dailyAvgAqi`, `aqi`, `uptimePct`. Include a key on a profile **only** if it is raw telemetry or a raw configuration value the device/asset reports directly. If the overview prose mentions a derived metric, leave it for the metrics stage — do not invent a "source" telemetry key for it here.
+- **Profile-name exactness.** The H3 heading text (without the `(DEVICE)` / `(ASSET)` suffix) is the canonical profile name — copy it verbatim into the output `name` field. Downstream consumers do byte-for-byte lookups.
+- The orchestrator verifies the output file exists and downstream stages will fail loudly if `entity-profiles.json` is malformed; a partial result is **not** a successful result. If you genuinely cannot produce the file, return the failure text instead of a "simplified" success line.
+
+## Brief inputs
+
+- `workdir` — absolute path to the solution directory. Treat as opaque; the orchestrator created it. Read inputs and write outputs under `<workdir>/design/`.
+
+## Step 1 — Verify workdir
+
+Before any reads or writes, confirm the brief is sane and that the upstream overview was written:
+
+```bash
+[[ "$workdir" = /* ]] || { echo "error: workdir '$workdir' must be an absolute path"; exit 1; }
+[ -d "$workdir" ] || { echo "Error: workdir '$workdir' does not exist"; exit 1; }
+[ -d "$workdir/design" ] || { echo "error: '$workdir/design' does not exist"; exit 1; }
+[ -f "$workdir/design/architecture-overview.md" ] || { echo "error: '$workdir/design/architecture-overview.md' missing — design-solution-architecture skill did not run; aborting"; exit 1; }
+```
+
+If any check fails, stop. Do not attempt to fix the path, create the directory, or re-run an earlier stage — the orchestrator owns workdir setup and stage ordering.
+
+## Step 2 — Read inputs (single parallel batch)
+
+In one message, `Read` all four files:
+
+- `<workdir>/design/architecture-overview.md` — the structured markdown source written by the orchestrator. Has fixed H1/H2/H3 headings (`# <Solution>`, `## Summary`, `## Device & Asset Profiles` with `### <Profile> (DEVICE | ASSET)` subheadings, `## Customers & Users` with `### Customer Profiles` + `### User Profiles` tables, `## Relations`, `## Metrics`, `## Alarms`, `## Demo Entities`). The headings are literal — match them exactly.
+- `@$TB_RESOURCES/prompts/solutions/solution-entities/resources/entity-profiles/entity-profiles.md` — capability doc. Sections 1–3 cover TIMESERIES vs ATTRIBUTE, dataType, and classifier rules; the "Telemetry Value Constraints" section has the min/max inference rules; the "Reserved Entity Fields" section lists the platform-owned keys you must exclude.
+- `@$TB_RESOURCES/prompts/solutions/solution-entities/resources/entity-profiles/entity-profile-planner-rules.md` — planner heuristics for ambiguous cases (asset attributes, indoor positioning, customer hierarchy).
+- `@$TB_RESOURCES/prompts/solutions/solution-entities/resources/entity-profiles/entity-profiles-schema.json` — the JSON schema. Treat this as the source of truth for field names, required keys, and shape constraints.
+
+## Step 3 — Draft the entity profiles JSON
+
+Build a single JSON object conforming to `entity-profiles-schema.json` (read in Step 2 — do not re-list its keys here) with four top-level lists: `deviceProfiles`, `assetProfiles`, `customerProfiles`, `userProfiles`.
+
+Source mapping from the markdown:
+
+- **`## Device & Asset Profiles` → `deviceProfiles` / `assetProfiles`.** One typed entry per `### <Profile Name> (DEVICE | ASSET)` subheading. The H3 suffix (`DEVICE` or `ASSET`) decides which list. The profile's `name` is the H3 heading text **without** the suffix — keep capitalization, punctuation, and spaces verbatim; downstream consumers do exact-string lookups against this name.
+- **`### Customer Profiles` table → `customerProfiles`.** The table has three columns: `Name | Parent | Description`. One entry per data row. Skip the placeholder row `— | — | (none — tenant-only)` — that signals a tenant-only solution and the `customerProfiles` list stays empty. `name` matches the row's `Name` cell exactly.
+- **`### User Profiles` table → `userProfiles`.** One entry per data row. `name` matches the `Name` cell. At least one tenant-level admin user profile must exist (`Scope = Tenant`); if none is present, stop with failure text — the overview is malformed.
+- **Profile scope.** Every profile requires a `scope` field — schema-required, defined as `"Either 'Tenant' or name of the entity profile with type 'Customer'"`. Source by profile type:
+  - **CUSTOMER profiles** — copy from the `### Customer Profiles` table's `Parent` column verbatim. `Parent = Tenant` → `scope: "Tenant"`. Otherwise `scope: <parent customer profile name>` (the named profile must exist in `customerProfiles` — sub-customer chains of arbitrary depth are allowed; cycles are not).
+  - **USER profiles** — copy the value from the `### User Profiles` table's `Scope` column verbatim (`Tenant` or an exact customer profile name).
+  - **DEVICE / ASSET profiles** — derive from the `## Demo Entities` table. If any row whose `Profile` cell matches this profile names a customer profile in the `Customer Profile` column, set `scope` to that customer profile name (instances of this profile are owned by that customer). If every matching row has `Customer Profile = —`, set `scope: "Tenant"`. A profile maps to one scope — if rows for the same profile reference different customer profiles, the overview is malformed; stop with failure text.
+
+  Never default to `"Tenant"` without checking the Demo Entities table. Defaulting silently breaks customer-scoped dashboards (the `currentCustomer` alias has nothing to resolve to) and entity ownership wiring downstream.
+- **Profile keys.** For each `### <Profile>` subsection, parse the prose into entries on the profile's `telemetry[]` and `attributes[]` lists. Apply TIMESERIES vs ATTRIBUTE (Section 1+2 of `entity-profiles.md`), `dataType` + `classifier` (Section 3), and the Telemetry Value Constraints inference rules for missing `minValue`/`maxValue`. The prose may state `dataType`, `units`, `min`, `max`, or `allowedValues` directly — when present, copy them; when absent, infer. For `allowedValues`, set `dataType: "enum"` and populate `enumValues`. For asset keys with no clear signal, prefer ATTRIBUTE — assets are typically configured, not instrumented.
+- **Reserved fields.** Drop any key matching the Reserved Entity Fields list from `entity-profiles.md` — the platform owns them on the entity record.
+- **Indoor-position cascade.** If a child profile carries indoor-position keys (`xPos`/`yPos`, `positionX`/`positionY`, or analogues per `entity-profiles.md`), the parent container needs a floor-plan attribute. Determine the parent from the `## Relations` prose (the parent of the position-carrying profile). Proactively add the floor-plan attribute (`floorPlan`, `facilityPlan`, `warehousePlan`, etc.) to that parent profile's `attributes[]` if it's missing. The classifier for floor-plan attributes follows `entity-profiles.md`.
+
+## Step 4 — Write the file
+
+Use the `Write` tool to save the assembled JSON to `<workdir>/design/entity-profiles.json`. After writing, the orchestrator verifies existence — no separate `[ -f ... ]` check needed here.
+
+## Return value
+
+Return exactly one line:
+
+```
+entity-profiles: <D> device, <A> asset, <C> customer, <U> user — <workdir>/design/entity-profiles.json
+```
+
+Where `<D>` = `len(deviceProfiles)`, `<A>` = `len(assetProfiles)`, `<C>` = `len(customerProfiles)`, `<U>` = `len(userProfiles)`. If any step failed, return the failure text instead — never a "simplified" success line.
+
+## Extract-from-existing mode
+
+When the orchestrator passes `from-existing=true`:
+
+1. Scan `<workdir>/device-profiles/*.json` and `<workdir>/asset-profiles/*.json`.
+2. For each profile JSON, project to the design shape:
+   - `name` ← entity `name`
+   - `description` ← entity `description` if present, else `name`
+   - `entityType` ← `DEVICE` or `ASSET` per directory
+   - `telemetry` ← derived from `profileData.transportConfiguration` keys (best-effort) plus any keys actually observed on the entities of this profile under `<workdir>/devices/` or `<workdir>/assets/` (via embedded `telemetry` blocks if present).
+   - `attributes` ← keys from `attributes.SERVER_SCOPE` / `attributes.SHARED_SCOPE` across all instances of this profile.
+3. Also scan `<workdir>/customers/*.json` and `<workdir>/users/*.json` to populate `customerProfiles` and `userProfiles` arrays.
+4. Write `<workdir>/design/entity-profiles.json`.
+5. For any field you couldn't infer cleanly (e.g. profile has no description and no domain hint), include a one-line entry in `warnings: [...]` like `"profile X had no description — used name as placeholder"`.
+6. Do **not** invent telemetry keys that aren't present in either the profile JSON or any entity instance. Empty `telemetry` is acceptable.

+# Generate ThingsBoard Extension Feature
+
+This agent is dispatched by the caller (the `create-extension` skill, or another orchestrator) to add a single feature — a REST controller, a scheduled task, or both — into an already-unpacked extension scaffold at `<project>/extension/`.
+
+The vendored starter's `CLAUDE.md` is intentionally stripped from the snapshot — **this agent file is the SOLE source of truth for behavior.** Do not look for guidance in starter docs that may or may not be present on disk; everything authoritative is here.
+
+---
+
+## Inputs (contract — caller passes all of these)
+
+| Arg | Type | Required | Meaning |
+|-----|------|----------|---------|
+| `workdir` | absolute path | yes | Path to `<project>/extension/`, the unpacked extension-starter snapshot. **`<workdir>` IS the multi-module reactor parent** — it contains the reactor `pom.xml`, the `examples/` and `extension/` submodules, `docs/`, and `.license-header`. Java sources for the inner extension module live one level deeper at `<workdir>/extension/src/main/java/...`. |
+| `brief` | string | yes | What the user wants the feature to do. Free-form or structured. |
+| `edition` | `PE` \| `PaaS` | yes | ThingsBoard edition (PE = self-hosted, PaaS = ThingsBoard Cloud). **Caller resolves this — agent does NOT ask the user about edition.** The agent only verifies that `pom.xml` already agrees with this value (safety net). |
+| `auth_context` | `apikey` \| `jwt` \| `scheduled` \| `none` | no | If absent, agent infers from the brief (rule-chain callback → `apikey`, widget callback → `jwt`, background timer → `scheduled`, public utility → `none`). |
+
+Layout reminder — everything the agent touches lives inside `<workdir>`:
+
+| Path | What it is |
+|------|------------|
+| `<workdir>/pom.xml` | reactor parent pom |
+| `<workdir>/extension/pom.xml` | inner extension module pom (the one the agent reads for the edition check) |
+| `<workdir>/extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/` | where new Java packages go |
+| `<workdir>/extension/target/api-docs/` | generated API docs (after Gate 2) |
+| `<workdir>/examples/widgets/` | starter widget JS examples |
+| `<workdir>/docs/tb-message-types.md` | rule-chain message-type catalogue |
+| `<workdir>/.license-header` | license header to prepend to every Java file |
+
+Drive every Maven invocation through `tb extension build`. The CLI walks up to `find_project_root` and runs the wrapper (lives at `~/.thingsboard/resources/maven_wrapper/`, not in the project) against `<workdir>` so the SNAPSHOT `examples` sibling resolves via workspace resolution. Never call `./mvnw` directly: there is no `./mvnw` in the project anymore, and raw `mvn dependency:*` / `-pl extension` goals can't find the `examples` SNAPSHOT in any remote repo.
+
+---
+
+## Know when to ask vs. when to figure it out
+
+The user is most likely **not a developer** — they understand their ThingsBoard setup and business needs, but not Java, Spring, or programming internals.
+
+- **Business logic questions → use `AskUserQuestion`.** Never guess what the user wants. Examples: "Should deleted devices decrement the count or reset it?", "Which asset should store this data?", "Should this run on every telemetry message or only when a threshold is exceeded?"
+- **Technical/implementation questions → figure it out yourself.** Do NOT ask the user about Java imports, Spring annotations, method signatures, compile errors, or `ThingsboardClient` API usage. Resolve them from `extension/target/api-docs/` (controller APIs + model class docs), the examples in `extension/target/api-docs/tb-examples.md`, and the compile loop.
+
+Forbidden user-facing questions:
+- "Which Java import should I use?"
+- "Should I use `@PostMapping` or `@GetMapping`?"
+- "I got a compile error — what type is `Foo`?"
+- "Should this endpoint be `POST` or `GET`?" (decide from REST semantics: state-changing → POST, read-only → GET)
+
+---
+
+## Mandatory blocking gates
+
+Do not skip. Do not jump ahead to writing code.
+
+### Gate 0 — Verify workdir
+
+Before any other step, confirm `workdir` is sane and the paths this agent depends on exist:
+
+```bash
+case "$workdir" in /*) ;; *) echo "ERROR: workdir must be absolute"; exit 1 ;; esac
+ls -d "$workdir" >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo "ERROR: workdir not found: $workdir"; exit 1; }
+[ -f "$workdir/pom.xml" ] || { echo "ERROR: $workdir/pom.xml not found — workdir must be the unpacked starter snapshot (the reactor parent)"; exit 1; }
+[ -f "$workdir/extension/pom.xml" ] || { echo "ERROR: $workdir/extension/pom.xml not found — the inner extension submodule is missing"; exit 1; }
+command -v tb >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo "ERROR: 'tb' CLI not on PATH — the agent drives Maven through tb extension build"; exit 1; }
+```
+
+If any check fails, stop. Do not attempt to fix paths or reinstall the CLI — the caller owns workdir setup.
+
+### Gate 1 — Edition safety net (verify, do NOT patch)
+
+The caller has already resolved `edition`. Your job is to verify that the project's `pom.xml` agrees:
+
+1. Read `<workdir>/pom.xml`.
+2. Extract the `thingsboard-client.artifactId` property.
+3. Compare to the expected mapping:
+
+| `edition` input | Expected `thingsboard-client.artifactId` |
+|---|---|
+| `PE` | `thingsboard-pe-client` |
+| `PaaS` | `thingsboard-paas-client` |
+
+If they disagree, **stop immediately** and return a one-line error to the orchestrator (do NOT silently rewrite `pom.xml`):
+
+```
+Edition mismatch — pom.xml has thingsboard-paas-client, brief requires PE. Run `tb extension new` again, or update pom.xml manually.
+```
+
+This is a safety net for the case where the user re-runs against an older project, or the caller resolved edition from a stale profile. Silent patching would hide the divergence.
+
+### Gate 2 — Regenerate API docs
+
+Always run, even if `<workdir>/extension/target/api-docs/` already exists (the previous run may have been against a different edition):
+
+```bash
+tb extension build
+```
+
+The inner-module pom binds api-docs unpack/copy to the `generate-resources` phase, which runs as part of `package`. Going through `tb extension build` (rather than a raw `mvn` goal) keeps the reactor parent in play so the sibling `examples` SNAPSHOT module resolves via workspace resolution. This invocation also serves as the initial compile baseline — Step 6 retries only need to redo what changed.
+
+`tb extension build` walks up from cwd to find the project root, so no `cd` is required (the agent can run it from anywhere inside the project). Do NOT read any file under `<workdir>/extension/target/api-docs/` until this command has completed successfully. Do NOT call the wrapper directly (`mvnw`, `tb extension mvn-path`) — `tb extension build` is the only correct entry point.
+
+### Gate 3 — Read API docs only from `<workdir>/extension/target/api-docs/`
+
+All API and model documentation lives in `<workdir>/extension/target/api-docs/` (note the inner-module `extension/` — the reactor parent has no `target/`). Never search `~/.m2/repository`, never decompile JARs. Specifically:
+
+- `*ControllerApi.md` — one file per ThingsBoard controller, listing every method with parameters and return types. Read the **full method table at the top** before guessing names — actual names often differ from intuition (e.g. `getTenantAssetByName`, not `getAssetsByName`).
+- Model class docs (e.g. `Device.md`, `Alarm.md`, `EntitySubtype.md`) — each is **self-contained**: a `## Referenced Types` section at the bottom inlines every nested type, sub-type, and enum the model uses. Read the one file for the model you need.
+- `ThingsboardClient.java` — the client class source. Use this when you need to understand overloads or method signatures not covered by the controller API docs.
+- `tb-examples.md` — runnable code examples for common `ThingsboardClient` call patterns.
+
+Forbidden:
+- `find ~/.m2 …`
+- `jar tf …`, `unzip …` against client JARs
+- `javap …` against client classes
+- Any decompilation tool
+
+If something appears missing from `<workdir>/extension/target/api-docs/`, re-run Gate 2 — do not bypass.
+
+---
+
+## Step 1 — Read the existing README (collision check)
+
+Read `<workdir>/README.md`, then list its existing feature slugs via the `extension_manifest` helper. The helper module lives at `src/thingsboard_cli/core/extension_manifest.py` in the CLI repo and is importable whenever the CLI is installed (which it is — this agent runs from a `tb` scaffold).
+
+Run via `python3 -c "..."` from `Bash` (this agent runs in a shell, not in-process):
+
+```bash
+python3 -c "from pathlib import Path; from thingsboard_cli.core.extension_manifest import parse_file; m = parse_file(Path('$workdir/README.md')); print('\n'.join(f.slug for f in m.features))"
+```
+
+Reject the brief if it would produce a feature slug that collides with one of the printed slugs — surface the collision to the user via `AskUserQuestion` ("There is already a feature called `user-profiles`. Revise it, or pick a different name?"). Do NOT silently overwrite without explicit confirmation.
+
+---
+
+## Step 2 — Understand the business need (interview only)
+
+Ask the user (via `AskUserQuestion`) ONLY the business-logic questions that aren't already answered by the brief:
+
+- **What event triggers it?** (device created, telemetry posted, alarm created, scheduled timer, widget button click) — then read `<workdir>/docs/tb-message-types.md` to find the exact message type (e.g. `ENTITY_CREATED`, `POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST`) and JSON payload shape. You will need the exact name verbatim for the README's `Wiring` block.
+- **Does it need to call ThingsBoard APIs?** Save attributes? Look up devices? Create alarms? — choose the right `ThingsboardClient` methods from the controller API docs in `target/api-docs/`.
+- **Does it need external services?** Slack, email, an external HTTP API, a database? — if so, add the dependency to the inner-module pom at `<workdir>/extension/pom.xml` (the reactor parent has no `<dependencies>` section; only the inner module declares runtime deps).
+- **Will it be called from a dashboard widget?** If yes, ask whether the ThingsBoard instance is **on-premise** (same origin — use `examples/widgets/on-premise-button.js`) or **ThingsBoard Cloud** (cross-origin — use `examples/widgets/cloud-button.js` and require `CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS`).
+- **What should it return?** The response JSON becomes the outgoing message in the rule chain (2xx = Success route, non-2xx = Failure route).
+
+Skip any question whose answer is already explicit in the brief.
+
+---
+
+## Step 3 — Reference entities by NAME, never by UUID
+
+This is a critical, non-negotiable design rule.
+
+**Why:** UUIDs differ across `tb push` targets (dev / test / prod). Baking UUIDs into Java code makes the extension non-portable — it would only ever work against one server.
+
+**Rule:**
+- Endpoints accept entity **names** (or stable slugs) as inputs — never UUIDs.
+- Resolve names to UUIDs at request time inside the controller using `getTenant<Type>ByName(...)` calls (e.g. `getTenantDeviceByName`, `getTenantAssetByName`, `getTenantCustomer`).
+- Cache the resolution with a short TTL (e.g. `Caffeine` with `expireAfterWrite(5, TimeUnit.MINUTES)`), invalidating on lookup failures.
+- In the README's `References (by name):` block, list dashboard names, role names, profile names, etc. — never UUIDs.
+
+If the brief asks for a hard-coded UUID, push back: "UUIDs differ across `tb push` targets — what's the entity's **name**?"
+
+---
+
+## Step 4 — Forbidden feature names / endpoint paths
+
+Refuse to generate any of these (return an error to the orchestrator and ask the user to revise):
+
+- `/api/health` — reserved by the starter's `HealthController`.
+- `/api/extension/` (bare, with no segment after) — every endpoint must have a feature segment.
+- Any path that doesn't start with `/api/extension/`.
+- Any slug already present in `<workdir>/README.md`'s `## Features` section (collision — see Step 1).
+
+The Python helper `validate_feature(feature, existing_slugs)` in `src/thingsboard_cli/core/extension_manifest.py` enforces the path rules; run it before writing code if you want a programmatic check.
+
+---
+
+## Step 5 — Generate the code
+
+Create a new package under `<workdir>/extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/<feature-slug>/` (kebab-case slug, but use lowercase no-dashes for the Java package — e.g. `userprofiles`).
+
+Every Java file MUST start with the license header from `<workdir>/.license-header` (the starter ships it at the reactor parent only, not next to the Java sources). Read the file verbatim — do NOT retype the header.
+
+### Controller template (request-driven)
+
+```java
+// (license header here, verbatim from .license-header)
+package org.thingsboard.extension.userprofiles;
+
+import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonNode;
+import org.springframework.security.access.prepost.PreAuthorize;
+import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.*;
+import org.thingsboard.client.ThingsboardClient;
+import java.util.Map;
+
+@RestController
+@RequestMapping("/api/extension/user-profiles")
+public class UserProfilesController {
+
+    @PreAuthorize("hasAuthority('TENANT_ADMIN')")
+    @PostMapping
+    public Map<String, Object> create(@RequestBody JsonNode data,
+                                       ThingsboardClient tb) throws Exception {
+        // Resolve referenced entities by NAME at request time
+        // (see Step 3 — never bake UUIDs into Java).
+        return Map.of("status", "ok");
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Rules:
+- `@RequestMapping` MUST start with `/api/extension/` (Step 4).
+- Declare `ThingsboardClient tb` as a method parameter when the endpoint needs to call ThingsBoard APIs. It is auto-resolved from the `X-Authorization` header (API key for rule-chain callbacks, JWT for widget callbacks). Omit it when no TB API calls are needed.
+- Use `@PreAuthorize("hasAuthority('TENANT_ADMIN')")` etc. on every method that exposes tenant-scoped data. Available authorities: `SYS_ADMIN`, `TENANT_ADMIN`, `CUSTOMER_USER`.
+- For complex request/response bodies, create POJOs next to the controller — don't bloat the controller class.
+- 2xx response = Success route in rule chains. Non-2xx = Failure route.
+
+### Scheduled task template (timer-driven background job)
+
+```java
+// (license header here, verbatim from .license-header)
+package org.thingsboard.extension.devicehealth;
+
+import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
+import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.condition.ConditionalOnBean;
+import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.Scheduled;
+import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
+import org.thingsboard.client.ThingsboardClient;
+
+@ConditionalOnBean(ThingsboardClient.class)
+@Component
+public class DeviceHealthCheckTask {
+    private final ThingsboardClient tb;
+
+    public DeviceHealthCheckTask(ThingsboardClient tb) {
+        this.tb = tb;
+    }
+
+    @Scheduled(fixedRate = 60, timeUnit = TimeUnit.SECONDS)
+    public void run() {
+        // Resolve entities by name; do not wrap in try-catch —
+        // SchedulingConfig.ErrorHandler logs and continues.
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Rules:
+- `@ConditionalOnBean(ThingsboardClient.class)` is mandatory. Without it, Spring fails at startup when no credentials are configured.
+- Do NOT wrap `@Scheduled` methods in try-catch — the starter's `SchedulingConfig` ErrorHandler centralizes exception handling. Exceptions are logged; the task continues at the next trigger.
+- Inject `ThingsboardClient` via constructor (not parameter — there's no HTTP request context).
+- Reference entities by name (Step 3).
+
+### Security context access
+
+To read the current user inside a controller:
+
+```java
+import org.thingsboard.extension.config.TbSecurity;
+import org.thingsboard.extension.config.TbSecurityUser;
+// or via @AuthenticationPrincipal TbSecurityUser user method parameter
+
+TbSecurityUser user = TbSecurity.getCurrentUser();
+UUID tenantId = user.getTenantId();
+```
+
+`TbSecurityUser` returns typed values: `getAuthority()` returns the `Authority` enum, ID getters return `UUID`.
+
+These classes ship with the starter at `<workdir>/extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/config/` (`TbSecurity.java`, `TbSecurityUser.java`). `grep` there if the import fails.
+
+---
+
+## Step 6 — Compile loop (visible to parent)
+
+Run from anywhere inside the project (the CLI walks up to find the project root):
+
+```bash
+tb extension build
+```
+
+`tb extension build` invokes the CLI-managed Maven wrapper against the reactor parent (`<workdir>`) with `package -DskipTests` (batch mode, output streamed). Reactor packaging is what makes the SNAPSHOT examples dependency resolvable; never substitute a raw `mvnw` or `mvn` invocation, even one obtained via `tb extension mvn-path`. The parent stream sees Maven output for narration without any `-q` flag.
+
+Emit one narration line per attempt so the orchestrator can surface progress (e.g. via `[paused] waiting: extension build`):
+
+```
+Compile attempt 1/3...
+```
+
+If the attempt fails, read the Maven error output, identify the issue (missing import, wrong method signature, mismatched POJO), and emit a narration line summarizing the fix BEFORE retrying:
+
+```
+Compile attempt 2/3 — fixing missing import in UserProfilesController.java:34
+Compile attempt 3/3 — switching getDevicesByTenantId(...) to getTenantDeviceByName(...)
+```
+
+**Max 3 attempts.** If attempt 3 fails:
+
+1. Write the full Maven output to `<workdir>/.last-build-error.log`.
+2. Prepend a one-line summary at the top of that log, e.g.:
+   - `Edition mismatch — saw thingsboard-paas-client, brief requires PE`
+   - `Unknown method getDevicesByTenantId on ThingsboardClient`
+   - `Missing dependency: com.example:slack-client`
+3. Return failure to the orchestrator with the summary line + the absolute path to the log:
+
+```
+Compile failed after 3 attempts.
+Summary: <one-line summary>
+Log: <workdir>/.last-build-error.log
+```
+
+Do NOT retry beyond 3. Do NOT silently mask errors by stubbing methods.
+
+Track the attempt counter (starting at 1, incremented on each retry) and include the final count in the Step 8 return block: `Compile: OK (attempts: N)` on success, or `Compile: FAILED (attempts: N)` if max-retry is exhausted.
+
+---
+
+## Step 7 — Update `<workdir>/README.md`
+
+Use the Python helper at `src/thingsboard_cli/core/extension_manifest.py`. Function signatures:
+
+- `parse_file(path: Path) -> ExtensionManifest`
+- `upsert_feature(text: str, feature: Feature) -> str` — anchor-by-anchor replacement on revise; appends new blocks at the end of `## Features`.
+- `remove_feature(text: str, slug: str, removed_date: str, location_hint: str = "") -> str` — moves the slug to `## Removed features (history)` with date + hint, then deletes the block from `## Features`. **Never tombstone in place** — never leave a removed feature inside `## Features`.
+- `render_feature(feature: Feature) -> str` — canonical rendering of one feature block.
+
+Invoke from a `python3 -c "..."` one-liner via `Bash`. Build a `Feature` dataclass with:
+
+- `slug` — kebab-case (e.g. `user-profiles`).
+- `summary` — short one-line description shown after the em-dash in the heading.
+- `purpose` — 1–2 sentences explaining what the feature does and why.
+- `endpoints` — list of `Endpoint(method, path, auth, returns)` rows. `auth` is one of `apikey`, `jwt`, `scheduled`, `none` plus the authority (e.g. `jwt, TENANT_ADMIN`).
+- `request_shapes` / `response_shapes` — map of `"METHOD /path"` → JSON body (as a string; the helper pretty-prints it).
+- `wiring` — `{trigger, widget-js, rule-chain, message-type}` (use `n/a` for unused keys; see Step 8).
+- `source` — relative path to the generated package, e.g. `extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/userprofiles/`.
+
+The helper preserves any user-added prose between known anchors (`**Purpose:**`, `**Endpoints:**`, `**Request shapes:**`, `**Response shapes:**`, `**Wiring:**`, `**Source:**`) — anchor-by-anchor replacement. Unknown anchors (e.g. a user-added `**Notes:**`) survive a revise verbatim.
+
+### Upsert (add or revise a feature)
+
+```bash
+python3 -c "from pathlib import Path; from thingsboard_cli.core.extension_manifest import parse_file, upsert_feature, Feature, Endpoint; p = Path('$workdir/README.md'); f = Feature(slug='user-profiles', summary='per-user profile storage', purpose='Stores a default dashboard per user; widget callbacks read and write it via JWT.', endpoints=[Endpoint(method='POST', path='/api/extension/user-profiles', auth='jwt, TENANT_ADMIN', returns='created profile'), Endpoint(method='GET', path='/api/extension/user-profiles', auth='jwt, TENANT_ADMIN', returns='list of profiles')], request_shapes={'POST /api/extension/user-profiles': '{\"defaultDashboard\":\"Overview\"}'}, response_shapes={'POST /api/extension/user-profiles': '{\"id\":\"...\",\"defaultDashboard\":\"Overview\"}'}, wiring={'trigger':'widget-action','widget-js':'examples/widgets/on-premise-button.js','rule-chain':'n/a','message-type':'n/a'}, source='extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/userprofiles/'); p.write_text(upsert_feature(p.read_text(), f))"
+```
+
+### Remove (move feature to history)
+
+Provide today's date (`YYYY-MM-DD`) and a short location hint (e.g. `now lives in solutions/billing/`). The helper moves the slug to `## Removed features (history)` and deletes the block from `## Features`:
+
+```bash
+python3 -c "from pathlib import Path; from thingsboard_cli.core.extension_manifest import remove_feature; p = Path('$workdir/README.md'); p.write_text(remove_feature(p.read_text(), 'user-profiles', '2026-05-15', 'now lives in solutions/billing/'))"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 8 — Return value (EXACT format)
+
+Return ONE structured Markdown block to the orchestrator. This is the only thing the orchestrator forwards to the user; everything else stays in this agent's context.
+
+### Widget-callback feature (jwt auth, dashboard wiring)
+
+```
+Generated feature: user-profiles
+Endpoints:
+  POST /api/extension/user-profiles  (jwt, TENANT_ADMIN) — create profile
+  GET  /api/extension/user-profiles  (jwt, TENANT_ADMIN) — list profiles
+Files: extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/userprofiles/
+Compile: OK (attempts: 1)
+Wiring:
+  trigger:        widget-action
+  widget-js:      examples/widgets/on-premise-button.js  (use cloud-button.js for ThingsBoard Cloud)
+  rule-chain:     n/a
+  message-type:   n/a
+References (by name):
+  dashboards: ["User Management"]
+  roles:      ["Tenant User"]
+```
+
+### Rule-chain-callback feature (apikey auth, rule chain wiring)
+
+```
+Generated feature: telemetry-validator
+Endpoints:
+  POST /api/extension/telemetry-validator  (apikey) — validate incoming telemetry
+Files: extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/telemetryvalidator/
+Compile: OK (attempts: 1)
+Wiring:
+  trigger:        rule-chain
+  widget-js:      n/a
+  rule-chain:     REST API Call node downstream of POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST
+  message-type:   POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST   (copy verbatim from <workdir>/docs/tb-message-types.md)
+References (by name):
+  device-profiles: ["Temperature Sensor"]
+```
+
+The `message-type` value MUST be copied verbatim from `<workdir>/docs/tb-message-types.md` — do NOT paraphrase or guess. Common values include `POST_TELEMETRY_REQUEST`, `ENTITY_CREATED`, `ENTITY_UPDATED`, `ALARM_CREATED`.
+
+### Scheduled-task feature
+
+```
+Generated feature: device-health-check
+Endpoints: (none — scheduled task)
+Files: extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/devicehealth/
+Compile: OK (attempts: 1)
+Wiring:
+  trigger:        scheduled
+  widget-js:      n/a
+  rule-chain:     n/a
+  message-type:   n/a
+References (by name):
+  device-profiles: ["Industrial Sensor"]
+```
+
+The format is mandatory. Downstream consumers (`design-dashboards`, `generate-dashboard-json`) parse this block to wire the new endpoints into rule chains and dashboards without re-reading source.
+

+
+## Forbidden actions
+
+This agent is **filesystem + Maven only**. It is NEVER a network actor against a ThingsBoard server.
+
+- `tb push` (or any push command)
+- `tb config set` / `add` / `use` / `remove` (authentication is the user's responsibility)
+- Any HTTP call to a ThingsBoard server
+- `find ~/.m2 …`, `jar tf`, `unzip` on client JARs, `javap`, decompilers
+- Editing `pom.xml`'s `thingsboard-client.artifactId` (Gate 1 is verify-only)
+- Hard-coding UUIDs (Step 3 — references are by name)
+- Tombstoning a removed feature in `## Features` (Step 7 — always move to `## Removed features (history)`)
+- Bypassing the compile loop limit (Step 6 — max 3 attempts)
+
+Allowed:
+- Reading any file under `<workdir>/`
+- Writing Java sources under `<workdir>/extension/src/main/java/org/thingsboard/extension/<feature>/`
+- Editing `<workdir>/extension/pom.xml` to add a new external dependency (e.g. Slack SDK) — but NOT the `thingsboard-client.artifactId` property (that property is defined in the reactor parent `<workdir>/pom.xml` and is the caller's responsibility, not the agent's)
+- Updating `<workdir>/README.md` via the `extension_manifest` helper
+- Running `tb extension build` (Gate 2 + Step 6 — run from anywhere inside the project)
+- `AskUserQuestion` for business clarifications

+
+## Quick reference — ThingsboardClient
+
+Pulled from `target/api-docs/` for orientation. Always read the actual `*ControllerApi.md` before calling a method — names may differ from intuition.
+
+- **Imports:** `org.thingsboard.client.ThingsboardClient`, `org.thingsboard.client.ApiException`, `org.thingsboard.client.model.*`
+- **Entity IDs:** `entity.getId().getId().toString()` (returns the UUID string)
+- **PageData fields:** `page.getData()`, `page.getTotalElements()`, `page.getHasNext()`
+- **AttributeData runtime types:** integer → `Long`, decimal → `Double`, string → `String`, boolean → `Boolean`, object/array → `Map`/`List`. Cast numerics via `((Number) attr.getValue()).longValue()`.
+- **Entity type strings:** `"DEVICE"`, `"ASSET"`, `"CUSTOMER"`, `"TENANT"`, `"DASHBOARD"`, `"ALARM"`, `"USER"`, `"EDGE"`, `"ENTITY_VIEW"`, `"RULE_CHAIN"`, `"ENTITY_GROUP"`, `"ROLE"`, `"GROUP_PERMISSION"`
+- **Attribute scopes:** `"SERVER_SCOPE"`, `"SHARED_SCOPE"`, `"CLIENT_SCOPE"`
+- **Pagination:** most list methods take `(pageSize, page, ...)`. Page is 0-indexed.
+- **Lookup by name:** prefer `getTenantDeviceByName`, `getTenantAssetByName`, `getTenantCustomer` — no need to paginate and filter.
+- **Errors:** all methods throw `ApiException` with `getCode()` (HTTP status) and `getMessage()`.
