) -> "list[EndpointPlugin]":
    """Discover, gate and instantiate `vllm.endpoint_plugins` entry points.

    Endpoint plugins add HTTP routes to the API server, so they default to
    not loading. Unlike other plugin groups, a plugin here is only
    considered when it is explicitly named in `VLLM_PLUGINS`. This is a
    stricter posture than `load_plugins_by_group` which "load everything unless
    an allowlist says otherwise". This posture is taken to handle potentially
    larger exposed network surface.

    A discovered plugin is loaded only if both hold:
      - it is named in `VLLM_PLUGINS` (enforced by not calling the loader
        at all when `VLLM_PLUGINS` is unset). Note that `VLLM_PLUGINS=""`
        parses to `[""]`, not `None`, so it is treated as a (non strict)
        allowlist that matches no plugin name, not as "unset".
      - its `required_tasks` is `None` or intersects `supported_tasks`.

    Args:
        supported_tasks: Tasks the server supports. `None` means no plugin
            with a non `None` `required_tasks` will be loaded.

    Returns:
        Instantiated plugins that passed gating in discovery order.
