pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 2e56260a88 a Servers section: development and production, both under pm2
pm2 for BOTH, development included. A `bun dev` started in a terminal dies with
the terminal, and nobody can tell whether it is running without finding the
window it was started in. Under pm2 the two are the same kind of thing — a named
process with a status, an uptime and a log, startable from here and inspectable
from anywhere. The cost is that development stops printing to a console somebody
is watching, which is what `pm2 logs fofos-dev` is for; the process names are in
the panel so nobody has to guess them.

This plugin owns exactly two names, `fofos-dev` and `fofos-prod`, and every
command is built from that pair and from nothing a caller supplies. No request
can stop, restart or delete another process on the machine. That matters more
than usual here: Officer's own processes share this pm2 daemon, and a plugin
able to name any of them would be a way to take the host down through a web
form.

Start is really a replace — delete, then start. Not `restart`: it fails on a
process that has never existed, and on one that has it reuses the environment it
was started with, so a port or database changed here would be saved, displayed,
and not in effect. That is an hour of somebody's debugging.

The environment is assembled here because this plugin is what knows the ports
and the database names, and it is handed to pm2 through the invoking command's
own environment — pm2 has no flag for it; `--env` names a block in an ecosystem
file. The site reads .env files first and the environment last, so this fills
what is absent rather than overriding what somebody wrote down.

Ports have no default. It is the one setting where a plausible guess is worst:
it binds, the site appears to work, and it is quietly answering on a port
another service wanted.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 3dd4dd6592 one header instead of three rows, and the folder lives in the URL
THE TOP WAS THREE ROWS OF FURNITURE before any content: the workspace's chrome
header saying "Detail", the panel's own strip saying "Media — Photos and video the
site is built from", and then the browser's toolbar.

a panel meta may supply its own `header`, which is the mechanism for exactly this and
which gitea, invoices and desktop already use. so the section's name goes where a
panel's name goes, and the strip inside is gone. "Detail" was never information —
the panel is the detail panel, and the useful word is which section is open.

the hint went with it. "Photos and video the site is built from" earns its place in
the NAV, where somebody is choosing between ten sections. repeated above the one they
chose, it is a caption for a decision already made.

AND THE FOLDER IS IN THE QUERY STRING. `urlPath` puts it in `?path=`, so a reload
lands where you were and a link can be sent to somebody — which for a media folder
somebody else uploads into is the point. it is opt-in in the platform because a
screen with two browsers would have them fighting over one parameter; this screen has
one.

`panelId` stays alongside it: the URL covers a reload or a shared link, and panelId
covers a panel re-opened later, which the URL cannot.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 c38d269faf Media moves to the foot, and each section asks its own question
TWO REPORTS, AND THE SECOND ONE WAS A DESIGN MISTAKE RATHER THAN A SETTING.

Media is pinned now, beside Administration. it sat at the end of the scrolling list,
which is the bottom of the LIST and not the bottom of the panel. it belongs in the
foot for the same reason Administration does: both are about this machine, while
everything above them is about the site's pages.

and it was LOCKED BEHIND A CONNECTION IT NEVER USES. `ready` was one global flag —
"can anything be opened" — and Media is a folder on this disk that never speaks to
fofos. so sections now declare what they need:

  'connection'  the site's pages, which read fofos
  'root'        Media, which needs a folder and nothing else
  'nothing'     Administration, because locking the door you fix things through is
                locking somebody out entirely

`sectionOpen` is one function, used by the nav to decide whether to offer a link and
by the detail panel to decide what to render — so the two cannot disagree about a
section. that was already the rule with one flag; it matters more now that each
section asks a different question.

`/status` gained `rootSet`, a BOOLEAN, and stays not-owner-only. the nav needs the
answer for every account that can see the section; the path itself stays behind
`/_config`, which is owner-only. whether a root has been chosen reveals nothing
about the machine — where it is would.

the empty-state line follows too: "set a root location below to begin" before there
is one, "connect fofos to open the rest" after — rather than one sentence naming a
step that is not the next one.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 944d3d9c5b a Media section, browsing the site's originals in place
a new section above Administration. it embeds THE PLATFORM'S OWN file browser rather
than drawing a file list — upload, delete, rename, move, thumbnails, the context
menu and every task hanging off it already exist and are maintained in one place. a
plugin's own would be a second to keep in step, arriving without any of that.

`basePath` IS A JAIL, not a starting folder: `useFileBrowserApp` resets currentPath
whenever it leaves, so pointing it at `<root>/media/originals` means the breadcrumb
stops there and `derived/` is not reachable by navigating. that is what was asked
for — people work in originals, derived is made for them.

IT IS A GUARDRAIL AND NOT A PERMISSION BOUNDARY, and the panel says so in its own
docstring because the difference will matter to whoever reads this next. the
file-browser API is unchanged and still addresses the whole home: anyone with file
access reaches derived/ through the Files screen. this prevents an accident, not a
determined person. confining it properly means scoping that API per user, which is a
platform change and a much larger one.

the panel also says, once, that derived/ exists and is made from these — otherwise
somebody who knows about it would think it had been lost.

`rootRelative` is new on the settings API because only the SERVER knows what home
is. the file browser addresses everything relative to a root, and a browser deriving
that prefix from the absolute path would be guessing. null when the root sits
outside home — a legitimate setting the browser cannot address, which the panel
explains rather than rendering an empty folder.

NOTHING HERE IS FOFOS-SPECIFIC, which matters now that this plugin is the template
for other site admins: the root is a setting, media/originals is the layout this
plugin creates, and both are read from the API. another site's plugin changes the
label.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 fcc7436965 Administration is emptied, and starts again with a Database block
the address-and-token form is gone from the screen and ConnectionPanel.tsx with
it. leaving an unreferenced component behind would have been worse than deleting
it: it is in the history, and a file nothing renders rots without anyone noticing.

in its place, Administration is a LIST OF BLOCKS rather than one form. it will
hold several unrelated settings, and giving each a titled block now means the
second one moves nothing — a single form would have to be broken up the first time
anything joined it.

the first block is Database, and it is empty on purpose. it says "nothing to set
yet" rather than rendering nothing, because a section that draws blank reads as
one somebody abandoned. what goes in it is not decided, and inventing fields to
fill the space would be deciding it in the wrong place.

WHAT THIS COSTS, plainly: there is now no way to configure this plugin from the
screen at all. the server half is untouched — `/_config` still stores a URL and a
token and the proxy in api/router.ts still reads them — but nothing can set them.
that is consistent with the gate being hardcoded false rather than a second
breakage: both are the same unfinished change, and neither is worth half-fixing
while the shape of the connection is being replaced.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 10b7bc34f7 nothing but Administration opens until the plugin is ready
every section was clickable and every one of them showed the same connection form,
because the panel forced it and the nav did not know. nine doors onto one message
taught nobody anything and made a setup step look like nine faults.

so there is now a gate, `useReady`, and both panels read it. that is the point of
putting it in a hook rather than in either panel: a nav that offers a row the
detail panel then refuses is worse than one that does not offer it.

the nav DECLINES TO OFFER — a locked section is a <div>, not a <Link>, so there is
no href to hover, no cmd-click into a new tab and nothing to focus. rendering a
link and swallowing the click leaves a row that looks navigable and behaves like
one everywhere except the click.

the detail panel HOLDS THE LOCK, and it has to, because `?section=gallery` typed
into the address bar or arriving from an old bookmark never passes through the
nav.

one line of copy in the foot rather than a badge on nine dimmed rows. without it a
locked nav reads as broken instead of as one step not done: the rows go grey and
nothing says why or what to do about it.

THE CONDITION IS HARDCODED FALSE, as asked. the plumbing around it is real — it
asks /status, re-asks when the connection changes, and reports while it is still
asking — so switching the gate on is one line. it returns a single boolean and not
its parts deliberately: "all the info needed in Administration" will grow past
`configured && lastProbeOk`, and callers must not start assembling their own
version of it out of the pieces.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 7eec2ec51d Administration is a section, not an overlay
the connection form — where fofos is, and the token — was reached through
`?config=1` and a link in the detail header, because it was not one of the nine
sections. it is now the tenth, called Administration, last in the nav.

that removes the overlay and the second route to it. the two could disagree: the
form covered whatever section was selected underneath, so the nav highlighted one
thing while the panel showed another, and an unconfigured plugin rendered the form
with no header at all — which reads as the selected section being broken rather
than as one setup step not done yet. unconfigured now goes to Administration and
the header says so.

`site` and `administration` are deliberately separate and the file says why. Site
settings is the CLIENT's — partners, social links, contact details, all of it
public copy. Administration is Officer's end: how this plugin reaches fofos, and
whatever else it will need to know. nothing in it ever appears on the site, and
the people who touch the two are not the same people.

`path: null`, alone among the sections: it reads nothing from fofos, which is why
it keeps working when fofos is unreachable and the others do not.

the header's settings link is replaced by the section's own hint, so the row still
says what it is once you are in it.

PastilhasandClaude Opus 5 6b87956e44 Everything needed to be a plugin
manifest, one table, a router and two panels. Discovery is by convention, so
this is the point at which the directory stops being a directory and becomes
something Officer can install.

The manifest holds only what a listing cannot say. One permission, grantable,
with ownerOnly on /_config — reading and editing the site is exactly what a
member might be brought in for, but the token is unrestricted write authority
over everything the public sees, so handing it over is the owner's.

db/schema.ts is ONE table and should stay that way. fofos owns its own Postgres
and its own media store; this holds a URL and a token. That is what makes the
strongest thing about this plugin true: no operation on it can destroy the
client's work, checkbox ticked or not, because none of it was ever here. A cache
would be the thin end of that.

The router mostly forwards. fofos's /api/admin already answers in the shape a
panel wants, so re-wrapping it would be a second place for the contract to drift.
Two things in it are load-bearing rather than style:

  registerProxiedPrefix('/api/fofos-admin/media'). bodyParser calls parseBody on
  multipart across the whole protected router, and Hono then caches the parsed
  FormData — so asking for the bytes afterwards re-serialises them under a NEW
  boundary while the ORIGINAL content-type header is what gets forwarded. Header
  and body disagree and every upload fails with "Unexpected end of form".
  Narrow to the one route: everything else is JSON that is fine to parse.

  The catch-all is LAST in the file. Hono runs matching handlers in registration
  order, so /* above /_config would swallow it and the settings form would
  forward itself to fofos, which has no such endpoint — a 404 from a plugin that
  is working perfectly.

Panels are a nav and a detail pane that never speak to each other: the nav writes
?section=, the detail pane reads it. Real <Link>s rather than the buttons
proxy-manager uses — AGENTS.md says nav items are links, and the file documenting
that pattern says not to copy the older one. <Link> and not <NavLink> because
active state here is a query parameter and NavLink compares paths, which would
light every row at once.

Which component renders which section is a MAP, not a conditional on `built`.
The first version read `built ? <MessagesPanel/> : <Planned/>`, which is correct
only while exactly one section exists — the second one finished would have
rendered Messages under its own name.

Messages is the only section built, chosen because it is one read-only route: it
proves the path from an Officer panel through this proxy to fofos and back with
nothing else able to be wrong at the same time. The other eight are in the nav,
dimmed and labelled, saying what they will do and that the old admin still edits
them. A nav that hides what is unfinished gives no sense of what the thing is for.

Typechecked against the platform — and the typechecker was verified to actually
cover plugins/ by planting an error and watching it fail, because a clean run
that does not include your files is worse than no run.

NOT yet: installed, or run against a live fofos. Nothing here has been through
the permission gate or a real request.
