 Guidance for AI agents and contributors working in this repo. Read `README.md` for
 commands and layout.
 
+## Prose discipline
+
+Every word in this repo is read again on every future task, so prose is a recurring cost. On **any**
+change, sweep the prose you touched — this file, `README.md`, the example READMEs, and code
+comments — and cut it back to what a competent reader could not infer:
+
+- **Delete history.** Git holds it. No "this moved from X", "used to be Y", "was tried and
+  rejected", "(declined twice)", dated changelog entries, or the symptom that prompted a fix. Record
+  the decision and the reason it *currently* turns on, nothing else.
+- **Delete restatement.** A comment that says what the adjacent line says, a doc paragraph that
+  re-explains a table above it, a file-map entry that expands the filename. The fix is deletion,
+  not trimming.
+- **Delete the self-evident** and anything already stated once elsewhere. **One home per fact** —
+  link to it instead of repeating it; the same sentence in five files is five chances to drift.
+- **Give every accepted risk an expiry** ("valid while X"), and delete the entry once X stops
+  holding.
+- **Keep** the surprising why, the footgun, the invariant, the external constraint, and the one-time
+  setup a reader cannot dig out of the code. Once a line has earned its place, make it short and
+  information-dense.
+
+Trimming is not a separate task to schedule — do it in the same change, every time.
+
+## How to work with tasks
+
+Use the file `todo.md`.
+
+For each todo item, interview the user extensively to deeply understand the scope and goal of
+each. When done, check the completed task in `todo.md`. Commit all changes and push to a new
+branch, create a PR and merge it when the CI/CD turns green.
+
 ## Project priorities (do not erode)
 
-1. **Simplicity** — prefer the smallest, most readable solution.
-2. **Few dependencies** — runtime deps stay minimal (today `ejs`, `lucide-static`,
-   `@larvit/log` — the last itself zero-dependency, for structured/OTLP logging).
-   Prefer the Node standard library; justify any new dependency; do not add
-   frameworks. The app is
-   **stateless — no database**. Auth/identity/OAuth are **Ory sidecar services**
-   (Kratos/Keto/Hydra, backed by Postgres), reached over their REST APIs with
-   built-in `fetch` — no SDK dependency. New capabilities ship as **plugin
-   folders** under `plugins/` that fetch their data from upstream services, not as
-   core code. See `README.md` for the architecture.
+1. **Simplicity** — prefer the solution that is easiest to understand, smallest, and most readable.
+2. **Few dependencies** — runtime deps stay minimal (today `ejs`, `lucide-static`, `@larvit/log`,
+   `postgres`). Prefer the Node standard library; justify any new dependency; do not add frameworks.
+   The **host is stateless — it owns no schema and stores nothing of its own**; a plugin may own a
+   Postgres database, which the host provisions but never reads or writes inside. Auth/identity/OAuth are
+   **Ory sidecar services** reached over their REST APIs with built-in `fetch` — no SDK. New
+   capabilities ship as **plugin folders** under `plugins/` that get their data from an upstream
+   service or their own database, not as core code.
 3. **Strict TypeScript** — `tsconfig.json` is strict (incl. `noUncheckedIndexedAccess`,
-   `exactOptionalPropertyTypes`, `verbatimModuleSyntax`). Keep it that way.
-4. **Environment-agnostic** — the app never asks *which environment* it runs in; there is
-   no `NODE_ENV` (or equivalent) branching. Every behaviour is an **explicit config
-   toggle** (e.g. `CACHE_TEMPLATES`, `REQUIRE_SECURE_SECRETS`, a future "disable email"),
-   read once in `src/config.ts`. Compose files set the toggles per deployment.
-5. **Semantic, accessible DOM** — markup is a first-class concern. Use the right element
-   for the job (landmarks, one `<h1>` per page + sane heading order, lists, `<table>` with
-   row/column headers, `<fieldset>`/`<legend>`, `<button>` vs `<a>`); add ARIA only to fill
-   real gaps (`aria-current`, `aria-sort`, labels). Classes/ids name *meaning*, not looks.
-   Prefer native semantics over `div` + ARIA. New views and partials keep this bar.
-6. **Full, parallel E2E** — every user-facing flow (each page, form, guard, plugin route)
-   has a Playwright E2E test, and a new surface ships *with* its E2E in the same change.
-   Tests stay independent and side-effect-free so the suite runs `fullyParallel` — keep it
-   that way as it grows (never serialise on shared state); parallelism is what keeps it
-   fast. E2E runs in Docker against the live stack — see `README.md`.

+6. **Full, parallel E2E** — every user-facing flow has a Playwright test, shipped in the same change
+   as the surface. Tests stay independent and side-effect-free so the suite runs `fullyParallel`.
+7. **Powerful, fail-loud plugins** — the plugin API is the product's main surface and the only way to
+   add domain features. It optimises for being powerful, predictable and overloadable, and the host
+   **fails loud at boot/discovery** rather than sandboxing at runtime. Runtime crash-isolation is a
+   deliberate **non-goal**.
+
+## Deliberate architectural deviations (don't re-flag)
+
+Intentional, reasoned choices — an architecture review should honor them, not re-raise them.
+Revisit only if the stated reason stops holding.
+
+### Structure & contracts
+
+- **`src/` is grouped by concern**, not flat — `http/`, `auth/`, `i18n/`, `plugin-host/`, `ui/`,
+  with `server.ts`/`config.ts`/`logger.ts` and the topology-guard `*.test.ts` at the root; tests are
+  co-located. Add a new module to the folder owning its concern. The core ships **no domain
+  screens** — even the admin GUI is a drop-in plugin (`examples/plugins/admin/`).
+- **Plugins and config import the host only through a barrel** — `@plainpages/plugin-api` →
+  `plugin-api/index.ts` → `src/plugin-host/plugin-api.ts`, `#menu-config` → `src/ui/menu-config.ts`,
+  never a relative `../../src/*` path. These two barrels are the whole contract surface; don't "fix"
+  either back to a relative path. Three consequences:
+  - `@plainpages/plugin-api` re-exports the Ory client types (`KratosAdmin`/`KetoClient`/`HydraAdmin` + their
+    DTOs and error classes), so those shapes are **contract-visible** — changing them needs a major
+    `apiVersion` bump, not a free refactor.
+  - **The barrel is a package, not a `#`-import, so a plugin folder may carry its own
+    `package.json`** and depend on npm packages (README → Plugin dependencies). The Dockerfile links
+    it into `/node_modules`, above every plugin scope. Never let a copy reach a plugin's own
+    `node_modules`: two instances of the barrel break `instanceof` across the boundary, which
+    `plugin-api.test.ts` guards by asserting both paths reach one module.
+  - **Plugin storage hands over credentials, not a client** (README → Plugin storage). The host takes
+  `postgres` to run the provisioning DDL, and `storage-provisioning.ts` is the only module importing
+  it — `storage.ts` beside it stays pure so `web` never loads a driver (`src/postgres.test.ts` guards
+  both halves, because one value imported from the wrong module breaks it invisibly). It is never
+  re-exported through the barrel, so no driver shape enters the contract. Three properties hold the design together, so
+  don't trade one away in isolation: passwords are `HMAC-SHA256(PLUGIN_DB_SECRET, id)` rather than
+  stored, which is what keeps the host stateless — whoever holds that secret holds every plugin
+  database, so it ranks with the DB password itself; the provisioning DSN reaches `bootstrap` only
+  (`src/compose.test.ts` guards the split); and provisioning never drops anything, so uninstalling a
+  plugin cannot destroy data — boot logs the orphans instead. Because the host's copy sits in the
+  ambient `/node_modules`, a plugin can `import "postgres"` without declaring it — incidental, not a
+  packaging promise, and a plugin must still depend on its own driver.
+- **The trust boundary is the `web` process, not the plugin.** Per-plugin databases and roles bound
+  *accidents*, not hostile plugins: `PLUGIN_DB_SECRET` is in `web`'s environment during `onBoot`, and
+  a plugin already holds `ctx.system`'s Ory admin clients — so cross-plugin DB isolation is
+  containment, and README says so rather than implying a sandbox. Consistent with priority #7
+  (crash-isolation is a non-goal). `server.ts` still deletes the secret from `process.env` right
+  after `loadConfig`, which is before discovery imports any plugin module — the ordering is the whole
+  point, so move it earlier if anything, **never later**. **Valid while plugins are
+  operator-installed code, not third-party uploads.**
+- **`ory/postgres/init/init.sql` is the only home for the Ory databases' ACL** — don't re-assert the
+  `REVOKE CONNECT` from `bootstrap`. `REVOKE` only *warns* when the caller doesn't own the database,
+  so under the least-privilege provisioning account the README recommends it would report success
+  while changing nothing, and it hard-fails whenever `PLUGIN_DB_ADMIN_URL` names a server with no
+  `kratos`. It runs only on **first init**, so a revoke added to it later never reaches a volume that
+  already exists — `docker compose down -v` is the dev remedy, a deployed install needs a migration.
+- **`bootstrap.ts` stays under `src/auth/`** even though it now provisions plugin databases as well
+  as seeding Ory. It is the one-shot service's entrypoint, not an auth module; moving it to
+  `src/bootstrap.ts` would edit `compose.yml`, five e2e compose files and `src/compose.test.ts` for a
+  rename. Reconsider when a third seeding concern lands.
+- **`BootContext.storage` keeps all six credential fields, and there is no `onShutdown` hook.** Adding
+  to the context costs a minor bump and removing one a major, so the shape errs small elsewhere. Pools
+  handed to a plugin are reaped on process exit — revisit if a plugin ever needs an orderly drain.
+- **`config/` is still a plain dir — no `package.json` of its own**, or `#menu-config` resolves
+    against that instead and boot fails loud. An operator's menu override has no use for
+    dependencies; if that changes, it needs the same package treatment.
+- **A plugin `package.json` without `"type": "module"` is refused, not warned.** Allowing it costs a
+  warning and a re-parse per file, not a break — Node detects module syntax, so even a `.js` helper
+  loads — and an operator on a read-only third-party mount cannot apply the remedy. Refused anyway
+  because the direction is safe: refuse→warn relaxes freely, warn→refuse breaks installed plugins.
+  **Valid while nothing is installed in the wild.**
+- **`examples/` mirrors the drop-in mount dirs** — `examples/plugins/<id>/` copies to
+  `plugins/<id>/`, `examples/config/menu.ts` to `config/menu.ts`. Both mirrors are in
+  `tsconfig.include` and resolve the host through the barrels, so each typechecks in place *and*
+  copies across unchanged. Never commit real plugins/config into the root mount dirs — they ship empty.
+- **`ctx.chrome` is lazily memoized — do not make it unconditional** or move it into the base request
+  context. It protects the I/O-free hot path on the public, bot-hit landing (`/`).
+- **A plugin-owned render always runs on that plugin's context.** The landing slots (`home`,
+  `dashboard`) and an `onRequest` short-circuit build their context with `contextFor(pluginId)`
+  exactly as a plugin route does — otherwise `ctx.t` is the core translator and the plugin's own keys
+  render as bare keys on the pages it owns.
+- **Email is delegated to Kratos** (it renders + sends recovery/verification mail); `web` never
+  touches SMTP. Customization is Kratos' `courier.template_override_path`, not app code.
+
+### Authorization
+
+- **Vocabulary: `User` → `Group` → `Permission`, and there is no `Role`.** Keto ships no namespaces —
+  all four in `ory/keto/namespaces.keto.ts` are ours. A permission is one operation ("read shifts");
+  a role is a *bundle*, which here is just a group with several grants (groups nest). Ory's own
+  "permission" (the `Resource` `permits`: view/edit/delete) is the separate per-row tier.
+- **A permission name is always `<resource>:<action>`** — `scheduling:read`, `users:write`. A bare
+  word names *who someone is* (a role), and roles are groups here. **Enforced at discovery**
+  (`isValidPermissionName` in `plugin-host/plugin.ts`, checked by `shapeError` over every route/nav
+  `permission` and every declared name), fail-loud like any other manifest rule — not only in the
+  admin GUI, which an operator removes by not copying it in.
+  - **Names are authored in plugin code; only grants live in Keto.** The host collects every installed
+    plugin's declarations into one catalog (`declaredPermissions` → `ctx.declaredPermissions`), and
+    that catalog *is* the list the admin screens offer. Hence **no Permissions admin screen**: nothing
+    in a GUI invents a name, and holding one is a property of a user or group, edited as a checkbox
+    list there. A Keto tuple naming something no installed plugin declares gates nothing, is not
+    offered, and is never revoked by an unrelated save — the picker only speaks for what it showed.
+  - `<resource>` is **global, not plugin-scoped** (hence `oauth2-clients`, not `clients`): users are
+    the *host's*, and cross-plugin sharing is a goal. Cost: collision-freedom is a convention rather
+    than structural. Accepted — the alternative penalizes the sharing case.
+  - **Declaring a permission stays optional.** Mandatory declaration would let `findConflicts` see all
+    overlaps, but would then warn on exactly that legitimate sharing case. Shape is enforced;
+    declaration is not.
+  - `ADMIN_PERMISSIONS` **defaults to empty**, and **an unusable value is dropped with a warning,
+    never fatal** — fail-loud belongs at the manifest boundary where a developer authored the
+    mistake, whereas `bootstrap` gates `web`, so refusing operator env takes the whole stack down
+    (`e2e-tests/compose.auth.yml` seeds a bad value to prove the container survives one). The seed is
+    a function of what `bootstrap` discovers, so a plugin dropped in after first boot needs
+    `docker compose up -d`, not `restart web`. `bootstrap`'s matching `./plugins` mount belongs in
+    `compose.override.yml` and nowhere else: in the base file it would desynchronise prod and collide
+    with the e2e stacks, which bind individual plugins *inside* `/app/plugins` (a nested mount into a
+    read-only parent is EROFS and the container never starts). Valid while bootstrap is the only
+    writer of grants.
+  - **`actionForMethod` is plugin-local and must not migrate into `@plainpages/plugin-api`.** Inside the admin
+    example it keeps the route table and the in-handler guard deriving from one function, so 29 routes
+    × 2 gate sites cannot drift. Generalised, it would make authorization a function of the transport
+    verb — a route table must answer "what does this need?" on its own.
+- **A `:read`-only holder must never be shown a write affordance.** The list/detail models carry
+  `canWrite` and the views drop create/save/delete/add/remove; the permission picker still renders,
+  disabled, because *seeing* who holds what is the point of `:read`. A **write-intent GET** (a create
+  form, a delete-confirm page) is the exception to `actionForMethod` and gates on `:write`. Two
+  grant-specific guards go with it: you cannot revoke your own **direct** grants (self-lockout would
+  need a `curl` against Keto to undo), and a permission held *through a group* renders
+  ticked-but-disabled, because unticked stated the opposite of the truth. **Known gap:** the group
+  paths are unguarded — unticking a permission on a group you belong to, leaving it, or deleting it
+  can still strip your own access. The robust "last effective holder" check needs a reverse Keto
+  query and is deferred.
+- **`users:write` and `groups:write` are equivalent to full administrative access**: `groups:write`
+  adds you to any group, including one holding every permission; `users:write` mints a recovery code
+  for any account. The containment the split buys is real on the **read** half only (`users:read` is
+  a safe helpdesk grant). Don't let the per-resource naming imply otherwise in docs.
+- **Plainpages says "user" everywhere; Ory's word is "identity".** House style, not a renamed
+  concept. The single exception is the `Identity` DTO in `src/auth/kratos-admin.ts`, which mirrors
+  Kratos' wire shape — don't rename it.
+
+### i18n
+
+- **The locale lives in the URL, never in a cookie.** `?locale=sv-SE` → `Accept-Language` → `en-US`,
+  and when the URL asked for one the host carries it onto the links it renders. A cookie would make a
+  page's language invisible in its address and unshareable; the cost is that a plugin wraps its own
+  hrefs. Matching is exact on a full tag (`sv-FI` ≠ `sv-SE`), except that a lone language from
+  `Accept-Language` takes the first regional catalog for it.
+- **The core building blocks carry the locale; a plugin doesn't have to.** The shell, `pagination`,
+  `filter-bar`, `data-table`, `auth-card`, `flow-body`, `field` and `menu` wrap every href in
+  `localeHref`; nav and sign-in are wrapped in `chrome.ts`; the two GET forms carry it as a hidden
+  `locale` input, since a GET submit replaces the whole query string. **A form's `action` counts as a
+  link** — sign-out, consent and auth-card forms carry it too, or picking a language and then saving
+  anything drops back to `Accept-Language`. The obligation stays on the building block, never on each
+  call site. `ctx.localeHref` remains for hrefs a plugin's own markup emits. The one round-trip that
+  cannot carry it is the Kratos sign-in POST (absolute off-site URL).
+- **`locale` is a host-owned query param** — in `parseListQuery`'s reserved set, so a localized list
+  page doesn't hand a plugin a phantom `locale` filter. The i18n view locals (`t`, `locale`, `locales`,
+  `localeHref`, `localeParam`, `localeSwitch`, `dir`) are likewise reserved, merged after a handler's
+  `data` so a collision loses the key instead of breaking the shell.
+- **Catalogs are checked at boot, not at render.** Every locale is compared against its set's `en-US`
+  — keys, string-vs-plural kind, and the plural categories `Intl.PluralRules` requires — and a
+  mismatch stops startup. A plugin may ship fewer locales than the host (its strings fall back to
+  `en-US` per key), never one the host lacks.
+- **`locales/` at the repo root is a drop-in mount**, like `plugins/` and `config/` — `locales/<tag>.ts`
+  for the core, `locales/plugins/<id>/<tag>.ts` for a plugin; a new tag adds a language, an existing
+  one replaces that catalog wholesale. Adding a language must never require forking the image. The
+  SHIPPED `en-US` stays the parity baseline even when the mount replaces it, so a mounted catalog is
+  checked rather than trusted (one compared only against itself would boot green with the whole UI
+  rendering keys).
+- **The language picker is on every page, POST-rendered ones included.** A POST-rendered URL often
+  answers no GET (`POST /admin/users/:id/recovery`), so the host resolves the picker's target
+  (`app.ts` → `switchBase`): this path when it answers GET, else the same-origin Referer, else `/`.
+  Accepted cost: switching language there leaves that POST's own result behind. Valid while the picker
+  is expected on literally every page — if that softens, hiding it after a POST is simpler.
+- **An unknown translation key renders as itself.** That single rule lets a nav label, branding, or a
+  menu `rename` be either a key or plain text without a second field or a migration. Don't "fix" it
+  into a loud failure: a manifest with plain labels must keep working.
+- **`t()` returns raw text; the view escapes it.** Messages go through `<%= %>` like any other value;
+  one carrying markup uses `<%- %>`, and then its `{{vars}}` are escaped at the call site. Don't move
+  escaping into `t()` — every other value in a view would become the odd one out.
+- **RTL is out of scope until there is a real use case.** `textDirection` sets `<html dir>` because
+  that is free and correct, but the stylesheet keeps physical `left`/`right` properties; a genuine RTL
+  locale needs those moved to logical ones first. Valid while no deployment needs an RTL language.
+
+### UI
+
+- **A dropdown is a `<button popovertarget>` + `[popover]`, never a `<details>`.** The browser then
+  owns open/close — the only zero-JS way to dismiss by clicking outside — and the panel sits in the
+  top layer, so a row kebab is not clipped by `.table-wrap`'s `overflow`. Four rules hold it
+  together: the panel carries **`position-anchor: auto`** (a bare `anchor()` resolves to nothing in
+  all three engines); it stays the trigger's **next sibling inside the `.menu` wrapper**, which the
+  open-state style and the old-browser fallback both read; the partial **requires a caller-named
+  `id`** and fails loud without one, since that is the `popovertarget` idref (never generate one —
+  nondeterministic HTML forecloses the caching decision); and **neither `aria-expanded` nor
+  `aria-haspopup` is written**, because a zero-JS invoker cannot keep the first truthful and the
+  second would promise `role="menu"` semantics these panels don't implement. `<details>` stays where
+  it means disclosure rather than popup: the nav tree. `shell.ejs` hand-rolls the same block for the
+  profile menu (its trigger composes escaped user values and its one item is a CSRF POST form) — keep
+  the two in step.
+- **`ICON_NAMES` (`src/ui/icons.ts`) is a host-owned registry, not a frozen plugin contract**, so it
+  is deliberately not re-exported from `@plainpages/plugin-api`. The palette may narrow when the last reference
+  to an id goes, and a plugin needing one gets it re-registered in the same change. Accepted cost: an
+  unknown sprite id renders blank instead of failing loud (the `every icon <use> resolves` e2e test
+  catches anything reaching the nav).
+
+### Build, test & release
+
+- **Deps install to `/node_modules`, above `WORKDIR /app`** — Node resolves upward, so dev's `.:/app`
+  bind mount has nothing to shadow. Not a volume at `/app/node_modules`: the daemon creates a mount
+  destination as root whatever `--user` says, leaving a root-owned dir in the checkout. Nothing may
+  sit at that path now — it shadows `/node_modules` silently (`src/compose.test.ts` guards the compose
+  files, `.dockerignore` the image).
+- **A container whose output a human then edits or deletes runs as `--user "$(id -u):$(id -g)"`** —
+  the E2E runner (artifacts) and a lockfile edit, or the output is root-owned and needs `sudo`, which
+  a dev box may not have. Not universal: `bootstrap` writes `jwks.json` as root when it is absent on
+  first boot; the committed dev key makes that rare, and when it happens the rotation runbook's
+  host-side `>` needs the file re-owned first (valid while the dev key ships committed). Three
+  consequences: `e2e-tests/artifacts/` is *tracked* (`.gitkeep`), since an absent bind-mount source is
+  daemon-created as root and that uid then cannot write it (README → Upgrading); the runner image sets
+  `HOME=/tmp`, since an arbitrary uid has no passwd entry and would land on an unwritable `/`; and
+  rootless Docker wants the flag *dropped*, container root already being the invoking user. Baking a
+  `USER` in instead does not work — the image's `pwuser` is 1001 and no fixed uid matches every host.
+  `src/compose.test.ts` guards every documented command, `src/ci-gate.test.ts` the gate's own.
+- **Anything the browser logs fails the E2E test that provoked it.** Every spec takes its `test` from
+  `e2e-tests/console-guard.ts`, which fails a test on a console error/warning or uncaught exception on
+  any page it opened. A zero-JS app has nothing to say in the console, so the bar is *zero* rather than
+  a curated tolerance list; the two exceptions are narrow — a module-level allowance for the COOP header
+  Chromium drops (the e2e stacks serve plain http over container hostnames), and `allowConsole(re)` for
+  a test whose own page provokes a message on purpose. `src/e2e-console-guard.test.ts` locks the wiring
+  in the *unit* gate, since a spec importing `test` straight from Playwright — or minting a page with
+  a raw `newPage()` instead of `watchedPage()` — would run unwatched and green. Accepted cost: a page
+  outliving its test can log late and fail the next one.
+- **The Ory-free specs run in all three engines; the Ory-backed ones stay on Chromium.**
+  `visual.spec.ts` + `language.spec.ts` are side-effect-free, so parallel runs don't collide, and a
+  console message only appears in the engine that renders the page (`ORY_FREE` in
+  `e2e-tests/playwright.config.ts`). The rest write users, groups and sessions to one shared backend,
+  so widening them means a stack per engine.
+- **The docs-only CI skip is `*.md` anywhere in the tree, not just the root.** Both git channels in
+  `ci.sh`'s `docs_only()` pass `--no-renames`: rename detection names only the destination, so
+  `git mv src/app.ts notes.md` would otherwise read as docs and skip the gate over a source file that
+  was gone. `src/ci-gate.test.ts` locks the flags as a
+  *text* guard — the test image ships neither `git` nor `bash`. This is why the Docker Hub overview is
+  `release-tooling/dockerhub-overview.md.tmpl` and not a `.md`: a release reads it and a unit test
+  guards it, so giving it a `.md` name would let a broken `{{VERSION}}` merge with its own guard
+  skipped. `README.md` is the one markdown a test reads — `release-tooling/contract-version.test.ts`
+  checks its `apiVersion` samples — and a README-only change skips that check; accepted, because
+  those samples are illustrative and the copies that matter (`examples/`, `views/`, the template) are
+  gated. **Valid while no markdown file is rendered or executed.**
+- **CI docker logins share the runner host's Docker config.** The act_runner is host-mode, so
+  `docker login`/`logout` in the workflows mutate one shared `~/.docker/config.json`: concurrent jobs
+  can race (one job's logout can 401 another's push — recover by re-running), and tokens sit in that
+  file between login and logout. Same class: concurrent runs share the workspace dir, so ci.sh's
+  web-image build races another run's container creation on the `<project>-web` tag. Accepted for a
+  single-maintainer cadence; serialize with a workflow `concurrency` group if it ever bites.

+## README structure (keep it this way)
+
+`README.md` serves two readers, in this order — preserve it when editing:
+
+1. **First-time reader (top).** A one/two-sentence tagline, then a **Quick start** that gets the
+   stack up and a *minimal* plugin live. Nothing comes before Quick start. Keep its commands
+   copy-pasteable; deeper detail lives in its own section, linked.
+2. **Returning developer (rest).** A **Contents** ToC right after Quick start, then sections ordered
+   by **what an adopter reaches for first**, not by architectural layering: Overview → Users, groups
+   & permissions → Building plugins → menu/blocks/interactivity → Configuration → Auth → Email →
+   Architecture → Testing → Production → Observability → JWT-rotation runbook → Project-layout file
+   map → Extending. Place a new section by how early an adopter needs it. **Users, groups &
+   permissions precedes Building plugins** because a manifest's `permission:` gate is unreadable
+   without the model, and it is the one home for that model.
+
+Keep the ToC in sync when you add/rename/remove an `H2`/`H3`. **Don't document internals** — how a
+script reaches a decision, what a function guards; a developer reads that off the code in seconds.
+The README earns its length on how to use and operate Plainpages, the external contracts, and
+one-time setup. A file-map or table row gets a clause, not a paragraph.
+
 ## Rules
 
 - Node 24 runs `.ts` directly (type stripping). Keep all TypeScript **erasable**
-  (`erasableSyntaxOnly` is on): no `enum`, `namespace`, parameter properties, or
-  decorators. Import local modules with their `.ts` extension.
+  (`erasableSyntaxOnly` is on): no `enum`, `namespace`, parameter properties, or decorators. Import
+  local modules with their `.ts` extension.
+- **No `.mjs`.** Write modules as `.ts` — even standalone scripts run in bare `node:24` containers.
+  If a file genuinely must be plain JavaScript, use `.js`; `"type": "module"` is set in both
+  `package.json`s, so `.js` is ESM.
 - **No build step** and no compiled artifacts — do not add a bundler or `tsc` emit.
 - Before finishing a change, run the typecheck and tests above; both must pass.
 - Tests use the built-in `node --test` runner — no test framework dependency.
-- English everywhere. Keep code comments short and information-dense.
-- Pin all dependencies and Docker images to exact, human-readable **semantic
-  versions** — never ranges (`^`, `~`) and never digests/hashes. npm deps are kept
-  exact by `.npmrc` (`save-exact=true`) + `npm ci`; the base image by tag (e.g.
-  `node:24.16.0-alpine3.24`).
-- Run the stability reviewer agent after every implementation of something that can be like
-  a PR. That includes an implementation from the todo file that is pushed directly to master.
-  Skip this if the changes are purely documentation and/or comments.
+- English everywhere.
+- Pin all dependencies and Docker images to exact, human-readable **semantic versions** — never
+  ranges (`^`, `~`) and never digests. npm deps via `.npmrc` (`save-exact=true`) + `npm ci`; images
+  by tag.
+- **Touching dependencies means revisiting `renovate.json`.** `Release-Bump` is an *allowlist*: its
+  rules name exactly what carries the trailer, so a dependency outside them never escalates the
+  release version and nothing fails to say so. A new manifest, compose file, custom manager or dep
+  type is a decision: can it reach a running Plainpages? If yes it needs a rule; if no, record nothing
+  and let it ride the next patch.
+- **`HOST_API_VERSION` *is* the release version.** Its `major.minor` must equal the release tag's, and
+  both release paths refuse a tag that disagrees (`release-tooling/contract-version.ts`). The patch
+  digit may lag on purpose: `checkApiVersion`
+  ignores patch, and auto-release cuts patch releases with no commit to bump a constant in. So a
+  dependency update big enough to force a **minor** is plugin-visible by definition — `auto-release`
+  stops rather than tagging, and the fix is to bump `HOST_API_VERSION` to that `X.Y.0` in a PR, merge
+  it, then tag. Never bump it to "catch up" with a patch release. **The contract surface
+  includes `views/partials/*.ejs`** — the view resolver makes every core partial an `include()` root
+  for a plugin's views, so their option names and emitted markup are author-visible. Know the hole
+  that leaves: discovery fails loud on a bad `apiVersion`, but `include("menu", { open: true })`
+  silently ignores a dropped option, so the partial vocabulary is a surface the version check cannot
+  police for you.
+- **The contract surface also includes the packaging promises** (README → Plugin dependencies): the
+  barrel is ambient at `/node_modules` with nothing for a plugin to declare, `"type": "module"` is
+  mandatory, and the host neither upgrades nor dedupes a plugin's dependencies. Same hole as the
+  partials — move the publish point, rename the package or start hoisting and every installed plugin
+  breaks with no version signal. Note the promise is deliberately *not* "your deps are yours alone":
+  build-time dedupe for baked images stays open, module-instance sharing stays unpromised.
+- **Publishing `@plainpages/plugin-api` to a registry is deferred, not rejected.** Today it is
+  `private` and shaped as a shim — `index.ts` re-exports `../src/…`, so `npm pack` would ship a
+  broken tree. The trigger is the first plugin author outside this repo — the first who cannot
+  typecheck against a mounted host tree. Whoever does it must first make the artifact self-contained
+  (types-only `.d.ts`, or move the barrel into `plugin-api/`).
+- A plugin's `apiVersion` is a **hand-written literal** semver — the host version it was built
+  against — bumped by hand on rebuild, **never** the host's `HOST_API_VERSION` constant. Importing
+  the constant makes every plugin always equal the host, so `checkApiVersion` can never fire.
+- **Plugin route handlers are thin and per-route, keyed on `ctx.params`.** Register one handler per
+  `{method, path}` in the manifest (the host extracts `:id`/`:name` and 404s malformed `%`-encoding).
+  Don't funnel many routes into one dispatcher that re-parses `ctx.url.pathname`: it duplicates the
+  URL shape, ignores the router's params, and has to re-handle HEAD. Factor shared per-request setup
+  into a small `withX` wrapper — see `examples/plugins/admin/`.
+- **`handleRequest` (`src/http/app.ts`) is a known complexity hotspot** — ~160 lines tracking
+  canonical host, static, locale, session + re-mint, CSRF, chrome, hooks, plugin routing, builtin
+  routing, 405/404 and error mapping. The pure parts are already extracted and separately tested;
+  what remains is orchestration. Planned split along those seams; don't grow it further without
+  taking one out.
+- Reviews are maintainer-triggered (e.g. via the larv-review skill) — never auto-run reviewer agents.
+- **A user-visible string belongs in a catalog, not in the code or a view.** Core strings go in
+  `src/i18n/locales/en-US.ts` (then every other locale, or the boot fails); a plugin's go in its own
+  `i18n/`. Operator/developer-facing text — boot errors, log messages, guard messages — stays English.
+  A pure view-model builder takes an optional `t` defaulting to its own English, so a unit test reads
+  in words; handlers pass `ctx.t`.
+- **One verb per action in the English UI: sign in, sign out, create account.** Not "log in", "log
+  out" or "sign up", inflections included — a second spelling for one button reads as a second thing;
+  the noun ("a sign-in error") is unaffected. A plugin's catalog and every other locale follow the
+  same rule in their own language. An unmapped Kratos id renders Kratos' own wording — map the id when
+  it matters. **Held by the author, never by a test:** slightly different wording is often the right
+  call, and a build-failing check takes that judgment away.
+- Use well formed, standard compliant, rich URIs. Prefer state in the URL over POSTing it, for
+  example on list pages with filters and pagination. Do `ids=x&ids=y`, not `ids[]=x&ids[]=y` and not
+  `ids=x,y`.
+
+## Comments
+
+Default to **no comment**. Delete one that restates the adjacent code, repeats a convention used
+elsewhere, justifies self-evident code, or records history. Write one only for what a competent
+reader of *this* codebase could not infer: a surprising why, a footgun, an invariant, an external
+constraint. See [Prose discipline](#prose-discipline).

-# The Plainpages plugin contract
-
-The authoritative reference for the plugin API — the product's main surface. A plugin is a
-self-contained folder under `plugins/` that the host discovers at boot; there is no
-registration step. The contract is **TypeScript** (`src/plugin.ts`), so the types here are the
-single source of truth — this document explains them, the guarantees around them, and the rules
-the host enforces.
-
-**Design stance.** The audience is experienced developers. The API optimises for being
-**powerful, predictable, and overloadable** — a plugin can take over as much of a page as it
-wants. The host **fails loud at boot/discovery** rather than sandboxing at runtime: a malformed
-manifest, a version mismatch, or a conflict stops startup with a clear message. Runtime
-crash-isolation (one bad plugin can't take the host down) is a *non-goal* — diagnose at deploy
-time, not in production.
-
-> **Status.** This is the contract the §2 host implements. The types and pure rules
-> (`checkApiVersion`, `findConflicts`, `isValidPluginId`) live in `src/plugin.ts`; **discovery**
-> (`src/discovery.ts`), the **router** (`src/router.ts` — method+path match, `:name` params,
-> permission gate, `RouteResult` → response), and the **per-plugin view resolver**
-> (`src/view-resolver.ts` — a `view` result renders `plugins/<id>/views/`, with the core partials
-> reachable via `include()`), **per-plugin static serving** (`/public/<id>/` → the plugin's
-> `public/`, `routePublic` in `src/static.ts`), and the **central menu override + branding**
-> (`config/menu.ts`, loaded by `src/menu-config.ts`, with branding — name, logo, default theme —
-> rendered in the app shell) are wired and in use by the built-in screens and the reference plugin.
-> Later phases extended this contract: the replaceable [landing pages](#the-landing-pages-home--dashboard)
-> and [public pages & menu items](#public-pages--menu-items) (§10), both documented below.
-
-## Anatomy of a plugin
-
-```
-plugins/scheduling/      # folder name = the plugin id → mounted at /scheduling
-  plugin.ts              # default export: the manifest (definePlugin(...))
-  shifts.ts              # handlers, helpers — plain modules
-  views/                 # EJS templates for this plugin's pages
-    shifts.ejs
-  public/                # static assets, served at /public/scheduling/
-    scheduling.css
-```
-
-**Identity comes from the folder.** The folder name *is* the plugin `id`, and the mount path is
-`/<id>` — neither is written in the manifest, so they can't drift or be claimed twice. The id
-must be **URL/path-safe** (`isValidPluginId`: lowercase `a–z`, digits, and dashes — dashes
-anywhere; no uppercase, underscores, dots, or slashes); the host rejects a malformed folder name
-at discovery. The id also namespaces the plugin's `views/`, its `/public/<id>/` assets, and (by
-convention) its nav/permission tokens.
-
-A handful of ids are **reserved** for the host's own first-party mounts — the gated `dashboard`, the
-Kratos auth flows (`auth`, `login`, `logout`, `recovery`, `registration`, `settings`, `verification`),
-the `admin` screens, the `oauth2` provider routes, and `public` (static). Since plugin routes resolve
-first, a folder claiming one would silently shadow a built-in route, so discovery refuses it loud
-(`RESERVED_PLUGIN_IDS`). (`/` is owned by the `home` field, not a route, so it needs no reservation.)
-
-Installing a plugin is "drop the folder, restart." Removing one is "delete the folder, restart."
-Nothing else references it; the operator stays in control through the central menu override
-(`config/menu.ts`).
-
-## The manifest
-
-A plugin imports its host surface from one module — `src/plugin-api.ts`, the **stable author
-barrel** (`definePlugin`, the manifest/handler types, `RequestContext`, the guards, and the
-body/CSRF/list-query helpers). That barrel *is* the contract boundary; don't reach into deeper
-`src/*` modules — the host may refactor those freely as long as the barrel holds.
-
-```ts
-import { definePlugin } from "../../src/plugin-api.ts";
-import { listShifts, createShift } from "./shifts.ts";
-
-export default definePlugin({
-  apiVersion: "1.0.0",                // semver of the host contract this was built against (a literal — see Versioning)
-
-  // Nav fragment, merged into the global menu and permission-filtered per user.
-  // `icon` is a Lucide icon by its sprite id (src/icons.ts).
-  nav: [{
-    icon: "i-cal", id: "scheduling:root", label: "Scheduling",
-    children: [{ href: "/scheduling/shifts", id: "scheduling:shifts", label: "Shifts", permission: "scheduling:read" }],
-  }],
-
-  // Permission tokens this plugin introduces. Declared for documentation, conflict detection, and
-  // bootstrap seeding (the demo admin is granted every discovered plugin's tokens). Optional.
-  permissions: [
-    { token: "scheduling:read", description: "View shifts" },
-    { token: "scheduling:write", description: "Create and edit shifts" },
-  ],
-
-  // Route handlers, mounted under the plugin's path (/scheduling). `permission` gates first.
-  routes: [
-    { method: "GET",  path: "/shifts", permission: "scheduling:read",  handler: listShifts },
-    { method: "POST", path: "/shifts", permission: "scheduling:write", handler: createShift },
-  ],
-});
-```
-
-`definePlugin()` only types the object and returns it unchanged — a manifest may equally be a
-plain typed object. It types the authored shape (`PluginManifest`); the host attaches the
-folder-derived `id` to produce the loaded `Plugin`. All validation happens at discovery. Note
-there is **no `id` or `basePath`** in the manifest — both come from the folder
-([Anatomy](#anatomy-of-a-plugin)).
-
-| Field | Required | Notes |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `apiVersion` | yes | Semver the plugin was built against — a **literal**, not `HOST_API_VERSION`. See [Versioning](#contract-versioning). |
-| `home` | no | A `RouteHandler` that owns the **public** landing `/`. At most one plugin may declare it. See [The landing pages](#the-landing-pages-home--dashboard). |
-| `dashboard` | no | A `RouteHandler` that owns the **gated** app home `/dashboard`. At most one plugin may declare it. See [The landing pages](#the-landing-pages-home--dashboard). |
-| `nav` | no | `NavNode[]` fragment (same shape `composeNav` consumes). `icon` is a Lucide sprite id (`src/icons.ts`); node `id`s must be globally unique. |
-| `permissions` | no | Tokens this plugin introduces; declared for docs, conflict detection, and bootstrap seeding (see [Nav & permissions](#nav--permissions)). |
-| `routes` | no | See [Routes & handlers](#routes--handlers). |
-| `hooks` | no | See [Hooks](#hooks). |
-
-A plugin may be routes-only, nav-only, or hooks-only — every collection field is optional.
-
-## Routes & handlers
-
-A route is `{ method, path, permission?, public?, handler }`. `path` is **relative to the plugin's
-mount path `/<id>`** (so `/shifts` in the `scheduling` plugin serves `/scheduling/shifts`); the host
-matches `method` + the resolved full path, extracts `:name` segments into `ctx.params.name`,
-runs the `permission` gate (a coarse JWT-claim check — see the README), and only then calls the
-handler with the [request context](#requestcontext). When the gate fails, an **anonymous** visitor
-is redirected to `/login` to sign in (same as the built-in admin screens); the requested page is
-preserved as `return_to`, so after signing in they land **back on the page they asked for**, not the
-dashboard. A **signed-in** user who simply lacks the role gets the **403** page. A route marked
-**`public: true`** has no gate at all — anyone reaches it (see [Public pages & menu
-items](#public-pages--menu-items)).
-
-`method` is one of `GET HEAD POST PUT PATCH DELETE`. A `GET` route also answers `HEAD`.
-
-A handler returns a **`RouteResult`** (or a `Promise` of one); the host turns it into the HTTP
-response. Returning `void` is the escape hatch — the handler wrote to `ctx.res` itself.
-
-```ts
-type RouteResult =
-  | { view: string; data?: Record<string, unknown>; status?: number; headers?: Record<string, string> }
-  | { html: string;  status?: number; headers?: Record<string, string> }
-  | { json: unknown;  status?: number; headers?: Record<string, string> }  // opt-in JS enhancement
-  | { redirect: string; status?: number };                                  // 303 unless status set
-```
-
-```ts
-// shifts.ts
-import { parseListQuery, type RequestContext } from "../../src/plugin-api.ts";
-
-export async function listShifts(ctx: RequestContext) {
-  const q = parseListQuery(ctx.url);
-  const rows = await fetch(`${upstream}/shifts?${ctx.url.searchParams}`).then((r) => r.json());
-  return { view: "shifts", data: { rows, q } }; // renders plugins/scheduling/views/shifts.ejs
-}
-```
-
-- **`view`** resolves against the plugin's own `views/` (`src/view-resolver.ts`) — nested names
-  like `"shifts/edit"` work, and an out-of-bounds name is refused. The template may `include()`
-  the core building-block partials (app shell, nav tree, data table, …) and its own
-  partials/subfolders to render a full page — exactly as the built-in screens do. To load the
-  plugin's own CSS, pass its `/public/<id>/x.css` href in the shell's `styles` slot (an array of
-  extra stylesheet hrefs) — see the reference's `views/shifts.ejs`.
-- **Finer authorization than the route `permission`** uses the guards from `src/plugin-api.ts`:
-  `requireSession(ctx)` (assert a session — throws a `GuardError` the host turns into a redirect
-  to sign in), `can(ctx, role)` (a coarse JWT-claim check, zero I/O), and `check(keto, ctx,
-  {namespace, object, relation})` (a live Keto check for relationship rules — the subject is the
-  signed-in user, anonymous ⇒ denied). Throw `new GuardError(403, …)` after a failed `can`/`check`
-  to render the 403 page.
-- The handler **fetches its own data** from upstream and renders it; plugins hold no state
-  (see the README's *Stateless* section). The partials only need rows.
-- `default` status: `200` for `view`/`html`/`json`, `303` for `redirect`.
-
-### Escaping & the trust boundary
-
-The host does not sandbox plugin output (crash-isolation is a non-goal), so a handler **owns the
-safety of the data it renders**:
-
-- **Raw HTML is raw.** An `{ html }` result and the `*.html` partial fields (`cell.html`,
-  `error.html`, a menu `trigger.html`) are emitted **unescaped** — that's their purpose (slot
-  composition). Escape any untrusted content yourself before putting it there.
-- **Text is auto-escaped; URLs are not scheme-checked.** Partials escape text fields (labels,
-  names), so those are injection-safe. But a URL field — nav `href`, a table cell link, a menu
-  item, a breadcrumb, `brand.logo` — is emitted as-is inside the attribute: a `javascript:` or
-  `data:` URL from upstream/user data becomes live XSS. When a URL comes from data you don't
-  control, pass it through **`safeUrl()`** from `src/plugin-api.ts` first — it returns the URL when
-  it's relative or `http(s):` and collapses anything else to `"#"`:
-  ```ts
-  import { safeUrl } from "../../src/plugin-api.ts";
-  return { view: "list", data: { rows: rows.map((r) => ({ ...r, href: safeUrl(r.href) })) } };
-  ```
-
-## The landing pages (`home` & `dashboard`)
-
-The host has two replaceable landing slots, and a plugin may own either or both:
-
-| Slot | Path | Gate | Default |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| `home` | `/` | **public** — anyone | An intro page with prominent sign-in / register links. |
-| `dashboard` | `/dashboard` | **signed-in session** (anonymous → `/login`, with `/dashboard` as `return_to`) | The built-in mock-data People list. |
-
-```ts
-import { definePlugin } from "../../src/plugin-api.ts";
-import { landing, board } from "./pages.ts";
-
-export default definePlugin({
-  apiVersion: "1.0.0",
-  home: landing,     // owns "/" — the public front page
-  dashboard: board,  // owns "/dashboard" — the post-login app home
-});
-```
-
-Each is a `RouteHandler` like any route's — it receives the [`RequestContext`](#requestcontext) and
-returns a `RouteResult`, typically a `view` from the plugin's own `views/`. A `dashboard` handler
-renders against the native app shell via `ctx.chrome` exactly as a route handler does; a `home`
-handler is a **public** page, so `ctx.user` may be `null` (use it to show a "go to dashboard" link to
-a signed-in visitor, or sign-in / register to an anonymous one). After login the user lands on
-`/dashboard` (or the `return_to` they were headed to), and the global menu's **Dashboard** link
-points there.
-
-For the gated `dashboard`, the host enforces the session gate first, so `ctx.user` is non-null;
-branch on `ctx.roles` *inside* to tailor the page per role. Don't gate `dashboard` itself behind a
-single permission — there's no second dashboard to fall back to, so a user lacking it would land on a
-403. (Both slots answer `GET` and `HEAD`.)
-
-Only **one** plugin may own each slot: two declaring `home` (or two declaring `dashboard`) is a
-boot-stopping conflict ([below](#conflict-rules)), never last-write-wins. Neither needs a `routes`
-entry — the host mounts them above the `/<id>` route namespace, and `/` can't be shadowed by a plugin
-route at all (route paths always carry the `/<id>` prefix).
-
-## RequestContext
-
-Every handler receives one argument, the `RequestContext` (`src/context.ts`), built once per
-request:
-
-```ts
-interface RequestContext {
-  chrome: PageChrome;                // brand/global-nav/user/theme/csrf for the native app shell
-  log: Log;                          // request-scoped logger, in this request's trace (§9)
-  params: Record<string, string>;   // path params from the route match, e.g. /shifts/:id → { id }
-  query: URLSearchParams;            // alias of url.searchParams
-  req: IncomingMessage;
-  res: ServerResponse;
-  roles: string[];                   // user?.roles ?? [] — coarse gate without a null-check
-  url: URL;
-  user: User | null;                 // { id, email, roles } from the verified session JWT, or null
-  verifyCsrf(submitted): boolean;    // gate a form POST against the request's signed CSRF cookie
-}
-```
-
-**`ctx.chrome`** is the page chrome the host builds per request — `{ brand, csrfToken, nav, signInHref,
-theme, user }`. Hand it to `partials/shell` so a `view` result renders the **native app shell** (the same
-sidebar, branding, theme switch and signed-in profile as the built-in screens); `chrome.nav` is the
-global menu — your plugin's nav fragment plus the others and the admin section — already composed,
-role-filtered, and current-marked for this request (the gated **Dashboard** link is omitted for an
-anonymous visitor). `chrome.signInHref` is where the shell's anonymous **Sign in** link points — the
-current page baked in as `return_to`. Map each `chrome.*` to the matching `partials/shell` local —
-`brand`, `csrfToken`, `nav` (the rendered nav-tree), `signInHref`, `theme`, `user` — exactly as the
-reference `plugins/scheduling/views/overview.ejs` does; a value you forget simply falls back to its
-shell default (e.g. a bare `/login`), it does not error. **`ctx.verifyCsrf(submitted)`** guards a
-state-changing form: render `chrome.csrfToken` in a hidden `_csrf` field, then on POST read your own
-body and `if (!ctx.verifyCsrf(form.get("_csrf"))) throw new GuardError(403, …)`. The host owns the
-secret and sets the cookie; the plugin never touches it. (See the reference: `plugins/scheduling/`.)
-
-**`ctx.log`** is a structured, request-scoped logger ([`@larvit/log`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@larvit/log),
-§9) already in this request's trace: `ctx.log.info("…", { key: "value" })` (also `warn`/`error`/`debug`,
-metadata values are string/number/boolean), and **`ctx.log.fetch(url, init?)`** — a drop-in `fetch`
-for upstream calls that adds a client span and propagates the trace (W3C `traceparent`) downstream.
-The barrel also exports a standalone **`tracedFetch`** (same behaviour, reads the ambient request log)
-to default an upstream client's `fetch` to — the reference plugin's `createUpstream` does exactly this,
-so its calls are traced with no per-handler wiring. Lines are correlated by a `requestId` and carry
-`service.name`; output/level/OTLP export are the host's config (it logs to console always, and to an
-OpenTelemetry Collector when `OTLP_ENDPOINT` is set).
-
-**Stability guarantee.** The fields above are the stable contract — present and non-breaking
-across a major `apiVersion`. New fields may be **added** within a major version (additive, never
-breaking). `req`/`res` are the raw Node objects and the full escape hatch; reading them is fine,
-but prefer the typed fields so a handler keeps working as the host evolves. `user`/`roles` come
-from the §4 JWT middleware and are `null`/`[]` until a session exists.
-
-## Nav & permissions
-
-A plugin's `nav` fragment is merged into the global menu by `composeNav` (`src/nav.ts`), which
-applies the central override and then **filters per user** by the roles in the session JWT — a
-node shows iff it is `public`, declares no `permission`, or the user's roles include that token. Use
-arbitrary depth, counts, and icons; see `composeNav` for the node shape. A node's `icon` is a
-**Lucide icon**, referenced by its sprite id (e.g. `i-cal` → lucide `calendar`); the available ids
-are `ICON_NAMES` in `src/icons.ts`, and adding one means registering its lucide name there.
-
-### Public pages & menu items
-
-A route or nav node may be marked **`public: true`** — reachable by **anyone, signed in or not**,
-and the menu item shows for everyone. This is the same as omitting `permission` (a no-permission
-route/node is already open) but stated outright, so "public" is a **deliberate choice, not the
-accident of a forgotten gate**. `public` and `permission` are **mutually exclusive** — declaring
-both is contradictory and discovery refuses the plugin at boot.
-
-A public page still renders in the native shell via `ctx.chrome`; for an anonymous visitor
-`ctx.user` is `null`, the shell shows a **Sign in** link (`chrome.signInHref`, returning to this page)
-in place of the profile/sign-out block, the gated **Dashboard** link is hidden, and `ctx.roles` is
-empty (read a role with `can(ctx, …)` to branch). The reference plugin's `/scheduling`
-**Overview** is a worked example: it's `public`, so the "Scheduling" menu header shows for everyone,
-while the actual shifts list stays behind `scheduling:read`.
-
-**A `permission` token is a coarse role.** The route/nav gate passes iff the user's JWT `roles`
-include the token; those roles come from Keto at login, so an operator grants a token by writing the
-Keto tuple `Role:<token>#members@user:<id>` (or to a group) — the admin **Roles** screen does this.
-(The fine-grained, per-row tier is the separate Keto `Resource` namespace — see the README's *Three
-tiers of "may I?"*; it is not what a route `permission` checks.)
-
-Permission tokens are a **shared global namespace** — that's deliberate, so an operator grants
-`scheduling:read` once in Keto and every plugin referencing it is gated consistently. Namespace
-your tokens as `<id>:<action>` to avoid accidental clashes. Declaring them in `permissions` is
-optional but recommended: it documents them, feeds conflict detection, and lets the one-command
-bootstrap seed them — the demo admin is granted every discovered plugin's declared tokens (§3), so
-a dropped-in plugin works out of the box without editing host config.
-
-## Contract versioning
-
-Each manifest declares `apiVersion` — a **semver** string naming the host contract it was built
-against — and the host exposes the current `HOST_API_VERSION` (e.g. `"1.0.0"`). The host bumps
-**major** on a breaking manifest/handler change and **minor** on an additive one. At discovery
-the host parses both with `parseSemver` (the official semver core regex — strict: no ranges,
-`v` prefixes, or leading zeros) and applies provider/consumer semantics in `checkApiVersion`:
-
-| Plugin `apiVersion` vs host | Result | Host action |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| same major, same minor (patch ignored) | `ok` | load |
-| same major, plugin minor **<** host minor | `warn` | load, log — additive-compatible, newer features exist |
-| same major, plugin minor **>** host minor | `refuse` | **abort boot** — plugin needs a newer host |
-| different major | `refuse` | **abort boot** — incompatible contract |
-| missing / not a valid semver | `refuse` | **abort boot** — must be declared |
-
-The plugin pins one exact version (no ranges — in keeping with the project's pinning rules); the
-*host* supplies the caret-style compatibility. `parseSemver`/`checkApiVersion` are tight,
-dependency-free functions (the `semver` package's ranges/coercion/prerelease-precedence are more
-than the contract needs).
-
-**Write a literal, never `HOST_API_VERSION`.** `apiVersion` records the version the plugin was
-*built against*. Importing the host's current constant would make every plugin always equal the
-host — the check could never fire, and a future breaking change would slip through silently.
-
-## Conflict rules
-
-Plugins are independent folders, so the host detects collisions across all discovered plugins
-with `findConflicts` and resolves them **loudly — never last-write-wins**. `error` aborts boot;
-`warn` logs and continues.
-
-| Kind | Level | Rule |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `id` | error | Two plugins share an `id` (folder name). Ids must be globally unique — they namespace the mount path, views/static, and the override target. |
-| `route` | error | Two routes resolve to the same `method` + full path. Cross-plugin routes can't collide (the `/<id>` prefix is unique), so this catches a plugin duplicating one of its own. |
-| `nav-id` | error | A nav node `id` is used more than once — the central override targets ids, so they must be unique. |
-| `home` / `dashboard` | error | More than one plugin declares `home` (or `dashboard`). Each landing page is a single slot, so only one may own it ([The landing pages](#the-landing-pages-home--dashboard)). |
-| `permission` | warn | A permission token is declared by more than one plugin. Sharing is legitimate (shared role); namespace as `<id>:<action>` if unintended. |
-
-There is **no separate `basePath` rule**: the mount path is the derived `/<id>`, so its
-uniqueness follows from the id check. `permission` is the one intentional overlap, so it warns
-rather than aborts; everything else is an error an author fixes before the host will start.
-
-Beyond cross-plugin conflicts, discovery also rejects **per-manifest shape errors** at boot: a
-non-array `nav`/`routes`/`permissions`, a non-function `home`/`dashboard`, or a route/nav node that
-sets both `public` and `permission` (mutually exclusive — [Public pages](#public-pages--menu-items)).
-
-## Hooks
-
-Optional, for reacting to system actions. A plugin's `hooks` may implement:
-
-| Hook | When | May |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `onBoot()` | after discovery, before the server listens | warm caches, validate upstream config |
-| `onRequest(ctx)` | before route matching | inspect, or **short-circuit** by returning a `RouteResult` |
-| `onResponse(ctx, result)` | after the handler | observe/log; cannot change the response |
-
-Hooks run in **discovery order** (plugins sorted by id). `onRequest` fires on every request that
-reaches routing (static assets bypass it); the **first** hook to return a `RouteResult` wins and
-short-circuits — later `onRequest` hooks and the route handler are skipped, and that result renders
-against its own plugin's views. `onResponse` runs for a matched route after its handler, with the
-handler's result; its return value is ignored. Hooks run with no sandbox — a throwing hook fails
-loud (boot for `onBoot`, the request for the others). Keep them cheap; `onRequest` is on the hot
-path (the host skips the pipeline entirely when no plugin declares a hook). This surface is
-intentionally small and may grow additively within the major version.
-
-## Local dev & test story
-
-A plugin is a normal folder of TypeScript, so an author tests it the same way the core is tested
-— everything in Docker, no host tooling. The shipped reference (`plugins/scheduling/`) is the
-worked example: thin handlers bound to an injectable upstream client, unit-tested in
-`shifts.test.ts` with a mocked `fetch` and a hand-built `ctx` (no host).
-
-1. **Unit-test handlers as pure functions.** Keep a handler thin: parse `ctx`, fetch upstream,
-   return a `RouteResult`. Test the data-shaping in isolation (mock `fetch`/upstream) with
-   `node --test`, exactly like `src/dashboard.test.ts` tests the dashboard model. No host needed.
-
-   ```bash
-   docker compose run --rm web npm test
-   ```
-
-2. **Run one plugin against the host.** Get the folder into the container's `/app/plugins/<id>`
-   — either in your clone (the dev compose bind-mounts the tree) or by bind-mounting an external
-   folder (README → *Where plugins live*) — and `docker compose up`; the host discovers it. For
-   an isolated harness, the §2 host exposes plugin injection (`createApp({ plugins: [myPlugin] })`)
-   so a test can mount a single manifest and assert its routes, nav, and gating without the rest
-   of the stack.
-
-3. **E2E the user-facing flow.** Per AGENTS.md §6, ship a side-effect-free Playwright test in
-   `e2e/` for each plugin page/form so the suite stays `fullyParallel`, run against the live `web`
-   service with the plugin mounted. The reference's permission-gating is covered in `visual.spec.ts`;
-   its authenticated list/form happy-path is the §8 full-E2E item (needs cross-host login infra).
-
-The validation an author hits is the same the host runs: bad `apiVersion` or a conflict
-([above](#conflict-rules)) stops boot with a precise message naming the plugin(s) involved.

+# Admin — the system-administration plugin
+
+The Users / Groups / OAuth2-clients screens for running Plainpages itself, shipped as a **drop-in
+example plugin** so a fresh clone has no admin GUI until you opt in. Copy this folder into `plugins/`
+(it keeps the id and mount path `admin`, so the screens live at `/admin/*`) and restart:
+
+```bash
+cp -r examples/plugins/admin plugins/admin
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+The bootstrap grants the seeded `admin@plainpages.local` every permission this plugin declares, so
+the section appears in the menu and the screens work immediately. An older copy already in
+`plugins/` is yours — the host never updates it — so re-copy after a pull; a stale one stops the boot
+with a message naming it ([README → Upgrading](../../../README.md#upgrading)).
+
+Every string it renders comes from its own catalogs (`i18n/en-US.ts`, `i18n/sv-SE.ts`), the nav
+labels included. Each pure view-model builder takes an optional `t` defaulting to the plugin's own
+English, so a unit test reads in words rather than keys.
+
+## What it demonstrates — a *system* plugin
+
+Most plugins fetch their data from an upstream service of their own (see the [scheduling
+reference](../scheduling/README.md)). The admin screens instead administer **Plainpages' own identity
+stack**, so they use the privileged **`ctx.system`** surface the host exposes to a system plugin:
+
+- **`ctx.system.kratosAdmin`** — create/edit/deactivate/delete Kratos identities (Users).
+- **`ctx.system.keto`** — read/write the Keto relationship graph (group membership, permission grants).
+- **`ctx.system.hydra`** — register/list/delete Ory Hydra OAuth2 clients.
+- **`ctx.system.revoke(sub)`** — the optional instant-revoke hook: a deactivate/delete or a
+  user's permission change kills that subject's live tokens at once instead of waiting out the JWT TTL.
+
+`ctx.system` is populated only when the host wired those services. Where a capability is absent the
+screen degrades to a themed 503 rather than crashing. Everything else is an ordinary plugin:
+folder-discovered, gated per route by its screen's `<resource>:<action>` permission, rendering the
+core building blocks in `views/`.
+
+Each screen is its own resource — `users`, `groups`, `oauth2-clients` — split into `:read` and
+`:write`, so a helpdesk account can be given `users:read` alone. Holding none of the six hides the
+Admin section entirely.
+
+There is **no Permissions screen**. Permission names are declared in plugin code, not created in a
+GUI, so the host's catalog (`ctx.declaredPermissions`) is the fixed list — and holding one is a
+property of a user or a group, edited as a checkbox list on those two screens (`admin-grants.ts`).
+
+## Layout
+
+- `plugin.ts` — the manifest: the Admin nav fragment, the six permissions the plugin declares, and
+  the route table — one thin handler per method+path, gated via `permissionName(resource, actionForMethod(method))`
+  so a GET needs `:read` and a POST `:write`.
+- `admin-grants.ts` — the permission picker and the grant diff, shared by the Users and Groups
+  screens: what a submitted checkbox set grants and revokes, against the host's declared catalog.
+- `admin-users.ts` · `admin-groups.ts` · `admin-clients.ts` — each a set of pure
+  view-model builders (unit-tested in the matching `*.test.ts`) plus thin per-route handlers keyed on
+  `ctx.params` (the host extracts `:id`/`:name`), sharing a small `withX` wrapper that resolves the
+  screen's permission gate + the needed `ctx.system` clients once.
+- `admin-shared.ts` — the permission naming (`permissionName` / `actionForMethod`), the shared gate
+  (`requirePermission`), CSRF form reader (`guardedForm`), confirm
+  model, nav fragment, and the not-found / unavailable helpers.
+- `views/` — the screens' EJS, plus the admin-specific body partials under `views/partials/`. They
+  `include()` the core building-block partials (shell, data-table, filter-bar, field, …).
+
+The three screens hold **no state** — everything lives in Ory. Handlers are thin, so their builders
+unit-test as pure functions with no host; the HTTP routing/gate/CSRF is covered in
+`src/http/app.test.ts` (which mounts this plugin) and end-to-end in `e2e-tests/full-flow.spec.ts`.

-    <!-- ====================================================
-         UNIFIED NAV TREE — every item uses the SAME node markup.
-           HEADER  → node has a <details class="nav-disc"> toggle + <ul class="nav-children">
-           LEAF    → node has a <span class="nav-spacer"> instead of a toggle
-           CLICKABLE → label is <a class="nav-self" href>
-           STATIC    → label is <span class="nav-self">
-         Mix freely: a node can be header+clickable, header+static,
-         leaf+clickable, or leaf+static. Workspace / Insights below are
-         simply header + static nodes — nothing special about them.
