Factory-form registration for native providers, and the node-local Computer
Use provider surface. Part of the
[Plugin entry points](https://funcoding.ai/agents/openclaw/plugins/sdk-entrypoints/) reference.

## Native provider factories

`registerSpeechProvider`, `registerRealtimeTranscriptionProvider`, and
`registerRealtimeVoiceProvider` accept either a complete provider descriptor or
a synchronous factory receiving `PluginCapabilityCatalogContext`:

```typescript
register(api) {
  api.registerRealtimeTranscriptionProvider((context) =>
    buildRealtimeTranscriptionProvider(context),
  );
}
```

Use the same plugin-owned factory for full registration and an optional
capability catalog. The host supplies native auth, request, and transport
operations; constructing a descriptor should not load execution SDK barrels,
read credentials, or start sessions. Keep that work in the descriptor's methods.
Factories must return synchronously; a thrown error or promise fails registration.

Full registration can bind its own broker or logger in the factory closure.
Do not substitute a catalog-only descriptor for one that requires those bindings.
Full plugin registration still owns harnesses, hooks, services, and lifecycle
callbacks; catalog entries alone do not establish runtime readiness.

Object registrations remain supported. Before publishing a plugin that uses
factory arguments, set its `compat.pluginApi` floor to a host release that
supports them; a lower `minHostVersion` does not override that API requirement.

## Computer Use providers

**Import:** `openclaw/plugin-sdk/computer-use`

Node-local Computer Use plugins register one provider through
`registerComputerUseProvider(api, provider)`. The helper owns the
`screen.snapshot` and dangerous `computer.act` command registrations and the
matching Gateway invoke policy; the provider owns availability, execution,
serialization, frame state, driver lifecycle, and cleanup.

`capabilities()` is a synchronous declaration read. Keep it free of driver
acquisition and native availability probes: Gateway tool discovery reads it
before preparing a desktop. Keep its provider generation stable for the
registered provider's lifetime; execution-specific frame generations remain
owned by the driver. Use `prepare`, `isAvailable`, and `openExecution` for
runtime readiness and resource ownership.

The same entry point exports the canonical TypeBox schemas, static types, and
compiled validators for the two command payloads and the snapshot result. A
node host accepts one provider for the command pair; registering another
provider conflicts with the existing command registration instead of creating
a fallback stack.
