What's new
Quick Connect Step 10 in AcrossAI MCP Manager now renders the per-connector "How to connect" walkthrough panels this plugin already ships on its own tab.
Since 0.9.3, every connector card (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini, Grok) leads with a rich onboarding panel — Claude's has three sub-sections for Web / Team-Enterprise / Claude Code CLI; ChatGPT's covers the Plugins tab rename and Developer Mode prerequisite; Cursor's has the paid-plan gate + three surfaces; Gemini's splits Business / Standard-Plus flows and calls out the httpUrl field name; Grok's splits individual / team admin. Until now those panels only rendered on this plugin's per-server AI Connectors admin tab. Operators walking through mcp-manager's Quick Connect wizard saw a bare fallback notice ("Dynamic Client Registration only…") at Step 10 instead.
0.9.4 exposes the same walkthrough HTML to mcp-manager via a new discovery filter — acrossai_mcp_manager_discovery_ai_connector_instructions — that mirrors the existing acrossai_mcp_manager_discovery_ai_connectors producer/consumer pattern. DiscoveryConnectorAdapter::provide_ai_connector_instructions() iterates ConnectorProfileRegistry::get_profiles() and returns a {slug => html} map, calling each profile's existing get_mcp_url_setup_html('__ACROSSAI_MCP_URL__') and wrapping the output in wp_kses_post. The __ACROSSAI_MCP_URL__ sentinel is substituted client-side by mcp-manager's Step 10 with the wizard's currently-selected server URL (HTML-escaped) just before dangerouslySetInnerHTML.
Single source of truth preserved: *ConnectorProfile::get_mcp_url_setup_html() remains the sole author of the walkthrough HTML — this plugin's own AI Connectors tab and mcp-manager's Quick Connect Step 10 both consume it through the same method. If a vendor changes their onboarding flow, one edit updates both surfaces.
Zero changes to the existing provide_ai_connectors() DTO, get_mcp_url_setup_html() signature, or any admin surface in this plugin. Pairs with acrossai-mcp-manager at the F082 companion release; older mcp-manager versions ignore the new filter (harmless).
Operator note
No vendor/ rebuild required — the new adapter method sits on an existing class file already covered by the current classmap.
