## 2. Plugin host
|
||||
- [x] **Specify the plugin contract** (big job, do first — it's the product's main API surface). Write it down as the authoritative reference: the full manifest shape; the `RequestContext` handed to handlers and what's guaranteed stable; **contract versioning** (a `apiVersion`/`engines`-style field so a plugin declares the host it targets, and the host refuses or warns on mismatch); **conflict rules** (two plugins claiming the same `basePath`, nav slot, or `permission` name → defined, loud resolution, not last-write-wins); the **local dev/test story** (how an author runs + tests one plugin in isolation against the host). Audience is experienced devs: optimise for a powerful, predictable, clearly-documented API. Crash-isolation (a bad plugin can't take down the host) is a *nice-to-have*, not a blocker — fail loud at boot/discovery over sandboxing at runtime. It is a target that plugins should be able to overload as much as possible. Hooks on actions in the system is not bad either, if it is possible. → `src/plugin.ts` is the typed, machine-readable contract (single source of truth: authored `PluginManifest` + folder-derived `Plugin`, `Route`/`RouteResult`/`RouteHandler`, `PermissionDecl`, `PluginHooks`, `definePlugin()`, `HOST_API_VERSION`) plus the pure rules the §2 host enforces — `isValidPluginId` (URL-safe folder name: lowercase/digits/dashes), `checkApiVersion` (semver via `parseSemver`/official regex, no dep: same major+minor→ok, older minor→warn, newer minor/major-mismatch/malformed→refuse) and `findConflicts` (id/route = error, duplicate nav-id = error, shared permission token = warn; never last-write-wins). Identity is the folder: id = folder name, mount = `/<id>` — neither is in the manifest, so mount-path uniqueness is structural (no basePath rule). `apiVersion` is a literal a plugin pins (never imports `HOST_API_VERSION`). nav `icon` = Lucide sprite id. `docs/plugin-contract.md` is the prose reference (anatomy/identity, manifest fields, handler/RouteResult, `RequestContext` stability guarantee, nav/permission namespacing, versioning, conflicts, hooks, dev/test story). README links it. Tests-first (`plugin.test.ts`); typecheck + 82 units green. Discovery/router/view-resolver/static stay as the next §2 items that wire this to FS+HTTP.

- [ ] Discovery: scan `plugins/`, import each `plugin.ts` default export, validate.
|
||||
- [x] Discovery: scan `plugins/`, import each `plugin.ts` default export, validate. → `src/discovery.ts` (`discoverPlugins`): the imperative shell over plugin.ts's pure rules. Scans `plugins/` (sorted, skips dotfiles/non-dirs; missing dir ⇒ `[]` for a clean clone), derives `id` from the folder, dynamically imports each `plugin.ts` default export and validates it — `isValidPluginId`, default-export-is-a-manifest, `checkApiVersion`, array-shape of nav/routes/permissions, then `findConflicts` across the set. Fails loud: every per-plugin problem + every error-level conflict is collected and thrown as one boot-stopping Error naming the plugin(s); warns (older-minor apiVersion, shared permission token) log and load continues. Wired into `server.ts` boot (logs the loaded ids). `discovery.test.ts` covers empty/happy/each failure mode + the warn path (temp-dir fixtures). Router/view-resolver/static are the next §2 items.
|
||||
- [ ] Router: match method+path under `basePath`, resolve path params, run permission gate, call handler with context.
|
||||
- [ ] Per-plugin view resolver (`plugins/<id>/views/*.ejs`).
|
||||
- [ ] Per-plugin static serving: `plugins/<id>/public/` → `/public/<id>/`.
