Description

As a user, I want to understand what Agent plugins are installed and what plugins are available, so that I can install/uninstall Agent plugins at will and customize my adversary emulation experience.

Desired features

• View plugins that are available from the plugin repository
• View plugins that are already installed
• Install missing plugins from the repository
• Select the specific version of the missing plugin to be installed
• Uninstall installed plugins
• Upload a plugin file
• Highlight an installed plugin if a newer version is available from the repository
• Force the UI to query the repository and refresh itself with the latest data

  • Read in the MUI docs how to pass props into a custom slot of the data grid (link)
• Improvements (0.25d)
  • Add a column for safe/unsafe to plugin grid @ilija-lazoroski 3418 add safe column #3643
  • Populate "Author" field - @VakarisZ
  • Only search on displayed properties @cakekoa 3418 search displayed fields #3646
  • Feedback for user actions (successful instalation/removal of a plugin), example below @cakekoa 3418 action feedback #3644
  • ??? Better description of a plugin. User will likely want to read more about the plugin before downloading it. The small text with unclickable links in the tooltip is not great for this ( Try to use Collapsible component as in https://mui.com/material-ui/react-table/#collapsible-table). [Table is completely different component. To implement such thing in the data grid we need to override the "row" slot https://mui.com/x/api/data-grid/data-grid/#DataGrid-slots-null]
  • Remove the "Search" title from searchbar. The icon already indicates that this is a search input - @shreyamalviya Remove search bar label #3648
  • Make plugin table full-height @cakekoa UI: Modify layout so that grid fills the viewport height #3645
  • Add "Type" title and default value of "All" to the type filter. Right now it's doing a placeholder approach, which is worse
  • Fix type column to display human readable values instead of using the underscore (now displays "Credential_Collector") - @shreyamalviya Fix plugin type value in grid #3649
  • Fix styling of the refresh button, make it spin to indicate to the user that something is actually happening once you click on it @ilija-lazoroski UI: Spin refresh button when refreshing available plugins #3650
  • Add a loading icon for update/delete button @ilija-lazoroski
  • Refactor to use IslandHTTPClient - @shreyamalviya Use IslandHttpClient for plugin-related API requests #3658
