Error message

plugin_kimi_rollback_destination_missing

What it means

Thrown during plugin rollback (rollback_hash_mismatch) when the installed plugin path has no parent directory to use as the plugins dir, so the file-level rollback uninstall cannot name a destination. `Path::parent` returns None only for root or empty paths, meaning the recorded install path itself is malformed. The host adapter owns `crate::plugins::install::uninstall`; this guard refuses to guess where the plugin lives.

Solutions

1. Reinstall the plugin so a correct absolute installed_path is recorded, then retry the rollback
2. Inspect the plugin install receipt/registry entry and fix the malformed installed_path to a real file under your plugins directory
3. Manually remove the plugin file and its parent directory entry, then run the plugin command again to regenerate state

Example fix

// before: path stored as bare filename
let installed_path = PathBuf::from("kimi");
// after: store/resolve a full absolute install path
let installed_path = plugins_dir.join("kimi").join("plugin.toml");

if installed_path.parent().is_none() {
    return Err(anyhow!("plugin install path must be a file inside a plugins dir: {}", installed_path.display()));
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling the plugin rollback path (via render_install_receipt) with an `installed_path` that is empty or a filesystem root, so `installed_path.and_then(Path::parent)` yields None and `plugin.uninstall_path` is never invoked.

Common situations: A corrupted or hand-edited plugin registry/install receipt recorded a bare filename or root path instead of a full install path; migrating plugin state across machines with a different install layout.
