fix(packaging): bundle deployments plugin in nemo-platform all extra

[anastasia-nesterenko]

Summary

Bundle the default-enabled deployments backend in nemo-platform[all], allowing the models controller to start after the documented installation. The missing-package error now recommends an installation command that provides the backend.

Fixes NAP-20

Changes

• Bundle nemo-deployments-plugin in the nemo-platform wrapper wheel.
• Include the plugin through the plugins, services, and all extras.
• Inherit the deployments service, controller, sandbox-profile, and skill entry points.
• Update the models backend import error to recommend pip install "nemo-platform[all]".
• Add regression coverage for the complete [all] → [services] → [plugins] → [nemo-deployments-plugin] dependency chain.
• Regenerate uv.lock.

Type of Change

• Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor)
• Code change with documentation updates
• Documentation only
• Contributor tooling or automation
• CI, build, or test infrastructure

Quality Gates

• Tests added or updated for changed behavior
• Existing tests cover changed behavior — justification:
• Tests not applicable — justification:
• Documentation updated for user-visible behavior
• Documentation not applicable — justification: The documented nemo-platform[all] installation command remains unchanged; this PR makes the package conform to that existing documentation.

Verification

• Pull request title follows the repository's Conventional Commit format
• Every commit includes an appropriate Signed-off-by: trailer
• uv run pre-commit run -a passes, or any blocked checks are identified below
• Targeted tests pass, or tests are marked not applicable above
• No secrets, API keys, or credentials are included

Targeted validation:

• uv run --frozen pytest tests/unit/test_wrapper_distribution.py services/core/models/tests/unit/controllers/test_backend_registry.py packages/nmp_build_tools/tests/test_hatch.py -q — 21 passed.
• uv run --frozen pytest services/core/models/tests/unit/test_config.py services/core/models/tests/unit/controllers/test_backend_registry.py services/core/models/tests/unit/controllers/backends/deployments_plugin/test_executor.py tests/unit/test_wrapper_distribution.py tests/unit/test_docker_workspace_slices.py packages/nmp_platform_runner/tests/test_registry.py -q — 56 passed.
• uv run --frozen ruff check tests/unit/test_wrapper_distribution.py services/core/models/src/nmp/core/models/controllers/backends/registry.py services/core/models/tests/unit/controllers/test_backend_registry.py — passed.
• uv run --frozen ruff format --check tests/unit/test_wrapper_distribution.py services/core/models/src/nmp/core/models/controllers/backends/registry.py services/core/models/tests/unit/controllers/test_backend_registry.py — passed.
• uv lock --check — passed.
• uv build --package nemo-platform --wheel --out-dir /private/tmp/nap20-wheel — passed; verified the wheel contains nemo_deployments_plugin, its inherited entry points, and the deployments extra in [all] metadata.
• unzip -t /private/tmp/nap20-wheel/nemo_platform-*.whl — passed.
• uv run --frozen ty check services/core/models/src/nmp/core/models/controllers/backends/registry.py — reports a pre-existing constructor typing mismatch on an unchanged line; no new diagnostics were introduced.
• Full pre-commit was not run.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The wrapper package bundles four Nemo plugins, declares their dependencies and entry points, updates deployments installation guidance, and adds regression coverage for the wrapper configuration.

Changes

Nemo plugin packaging

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Plugin dependencies and entry points packages/nemo_platform/pyproject.toml	The wrapper package adds plugin dependency groups, aggregate extras, bundle mappings, and controller, CLI, sandbox, service, and skills entry points.
Installation guidance and packaging validation services/core/models/src/.../registry.py, services/core/models/tests/unit/controllers/test_backend_registry.py, tests/unit/test_wrapper_distribution.py	The missing-plugin error recommends pip install "nemo-platform[all]". Tests validate the updated message and deployments bundle configuration.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 09d8b

The packaging change causes the agents-only installation to include the deployments plugin unexpectedly, increasing its dependency footprint. The PR is otherwise mergeable, but this bounded behavior change should have explicit owner acceptance and the unavailable pre-commit check should be rerun before merging.
