Describe your changes

The connect-provider wizard bootstraps the account's agent network endpoint from the first validated free domain on /reverse-proxies/domains. That list includes clusters that cannot host the endpoint: it is a private service, reachable only from connected peers, which needs a reverse proxy cluster with private capabilities. Management refuses a bootstrap onto a cluster reporting supports_private: false (netbirdio/netbird#7402), and the endpoint it assigns is immutable.

Candidates are now filtered on supports_private before the pick; only an explicit false disqualifies, so a management build predating the flag still works. The no-cluster callout gains a message for "clusters exist, none has private capabilities", and both messages link to Agent Network → Configuration → Clusters rather than the generic Reverse Proxy page. The picked cluster is derived from the list rather than held in state.

The e2e environment's primary reverse-proxy declares NB_PROXY_PRIVATE=true; without it no cluster qualified and every wizard spec stalled.

…work

The connect-provider wizard bootstraps the account's agent network
endpoint from a proxy cluster it auto-picks off /reverse-proxies/domains,
taking the first validated free domain. That list includes clusters that
cannot host the endpoint: the endpoint is a private service, reachable
only from connected peers and authorised by their tunnel identity, which
needs a cluster with at least one connected embedded proxy — the same
supports_private flag the Reverse Proxy modal gates NetBird-Only Access
on. Management refuses a bootstrap onto a cluster reporting it false, so
the wizard could propose a pick the API rejects, and the endpoint it
assigns is immutable.

Filter the candidates on supports_private before auto-picking, and give
the "nothing to pick" callout a second message for the case where
clusters exist but none of them has an embedded proxy — a different
problem from having no proxy at all, and a different fix.

Only an explicit false disqualifies a cluster: a management build that
predates the flag reports nothing at all, and dropping every cluster
there would block setup on a backend that would have accepted it.

Callout takes an optional data-testid so a spec can assert on the state
it announces rather than on its copy.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The agent-network provider modal now selects clusters that support private endpoints through an embedded proxy. It reports when no eligible cluster exists. The test environment marks one proxy as private-capable. Playwright coverage verifies selection and blocked setup behavior.

Changes

Agent-network bootstrap

Layer / File(s) Summary
Private proxy test capability
e2e/environment/create-test-env.sh
The primary reverse-proxy service sets NB_PROXY_PRIVATE=true. The no-ports proxy remains centralised.
Cluster eligibility and warning behavior
src/components/Callout.tsx, src/modules/agent-network/AIProviderModal.tsx
The modal filters clusters where supports_private !== false, derives the default selection, updates reset behavior, and displays a specific embedded-proxy warning. Callout forwards an optional data-testid.
Bootstrap selection end-to-end validation
e2e/tests/agent-network-bootstrap-cluster.spec.ts
Playwright tests mock the required APIs and verify selection of a private-capable cluster and blocked setup when no eligible cluster exists.

Use the required authenticated fixture and navigation helper.

openWizard creates an authenticated browser context directly. Use dashboardAsOwner or dashboardAsUser from e2e/helpers/fixtures.ts instead. Replace page.goto() with navigateTo(page, "/agent-network/providers") after route setup.

As per coding guidelines, use custom fixtures instead of raw page authentication and use navigateTo(page, path) instead of direct page.goto().

Use data-testid selectors for the tested controls.

As per coding guidelines, always use data-testid selectors through page.getByTestId() for Playwright element selection.

Comment thread src/modules/agent-network/AIProviderModal.tsx Outdated
Nothing picks the bootstrap cluster: there is no selector, so the state
could only ever mirror the first usable entry of the domains list, with
an effect writing it back on arrival and a render pass to show it. Derive
it from that list instead, which drops the state, the effect and the two
resets that kept them in sync.

mlsmaycon and others added 5 commits September 3, 2026 18:39
The connect-provider wizard now offers only clusters whose proxies report
the private capability, because the agent network endpoint is a private
service and management refuses to bootstrap it anywhere else. The e2e
environment's reverse-proxy ran with NB_PROXY_PRIVATE at its default of
false, so with that filter in place no cluster qualified: the wizard
showed the no-cluster callout, Continue stayed disabled, and every spec
that walks through the wizard failed on the Models tab it could no longer
reach — agentgateway, Kimi and the refused-save spec.

Declare the capability on the primary proxy. The no-ports proxy stays
centralised, so the pick also has to skip past a cluster that does not
qualify, which is the case the wizard filter exists for.

The callout told users to connect a proxy under Reverse Proxy, the generic
services page. Agent Network has its own Clusters tab under Configuration,
which is where a user setting up the agent network expects to manage the
clusters it runs on, so both messages link there instead. The tab and the
callout gate on the same permission (services read), so every role that
sees the callout can follow the link.

The requirement is a cluster with private capabilities, which is what the
supports_private flag reports. Tying the message to an embedded proxy named
one way of getting there as if it were the requirement itself, and pointed
users at the wrong fix. The callout now states the requirement and where to
connect such a cluster.
