Canonical Runtime Name • AI Agent SDK

</div>

This function is defined in the feature_configs module.

Normalise a runtime name; reject typos but allow genuine plugin names.

Matching is case-insensitive, ignores surrounding whitespace, and treats `-/_` as interchangeable, mirroring the other preset resolvers.

A value that names a known runtime resolves to its canonical spelling, so `NATIVE/ native all map to native and pick up the full matrix instead of silently dropping capabilities. A value that is a close typo of a known runtime (e.g. nativ`) raises with a suggestion rather than degrading silently. A genuinely unknown name (e.g. a third-party plugin runtime registered later) is returned as-is so it can fall back to the reduced harness — matching the runtime registry, not a closed literal.
