Plugins

Faxbot v3 introduces runtime‑switchable provider plugins backed by a single resolved config file. Initially supported slots are outbound (send faxes) and storage (inbound artifact storage). Inbound cloud callbacks remain core endpoints that delegate to plugin‑specific handlers; signature verification stays in core.

• Outbound: exactly one active provider (e.g., phaxio, sinch, sip, documo, signalwire, or an HTTP manifest provider)
• Storage: local or S3/S3‑compatible (MinIO) for inbound PDFs

Feature flags and config

• Enable discovery endpoints: set FEATURE_V3_PLUGINS=true on the API
• Optional dynamic install (off by default): FEATURE_PLUGIN_INSTALL=true (strict allowlist & checksums required)
• Resolved config file path: FAXBOT_CONFIG_PATH (default config/faxbot.config.json)

Admin Console integration

• Plugins tab lists installed providers with enable/disable toggles
• Each provider shows schema‑driven settings and “Learn more” links
• UI surfaces only the currently selected outbound provider’s guidance (backend isolation)
