      Currently Jenkins always ships Remoting version from the core to agents. Sometimes it would be better to ship newer version (e.g. with a bugfix for agent side, but it requires)

      Proposed changes:

      • API in the Core, which allows replacing Slave.JarFile
      • Plugin, which bundles Remoting as a resource and replaces the resource if the bundled version is newer than the version in the core

          -1 on this. JENKINS-41196 is better and more general.

          This is not a competitor of JENKINS-41196, especially since there is no ETA. I have no plans to alter the core logic, I plan to ship only service logic for agent. E.g. somebody will be able to provide custom remoting.jar after the plugin.

          Right, I get that, but why we would have a one-off feature for doing that when JENKINS-41196 is already written and probably just needs some testing and polish?

          Maybe. It depends on the path we select.
