catching edge-pertento-bridge up by 215 commits, drizzle-kit stopped and asked whether dav_app_passwords had been RENAMED to command_hq_spawned. both answers destroy something: rename turns the DAV app passwords into the spawned-commander table, create drops them. the table had not gone anywhere — it moved to a plugin the same day. installing the plugin first declares it and the question disappears. records the whole sequence, including `< /dev/null` so an unattended push fails rather than hangs on a prompt, the expected one-failure-then-seed-roles dance on a host predating the roles table, and that the env var is OFFICERDEV_POSTGRES_URL on several hosts rather than POSTGRES_URL.

Officer capabilities
The file-based store Officer reads agent items from. This repository holds the ones the platform ships; everything else in this directory is yours.
affordances/officer/core/ ← shipped here
skills/ tools/ tasks/ processes/ extensions/ agents/
Those six directories are created by the platform at boot and are where you and your agents author
items. They are deliberately not tracked here — your work is not ours to version. extensions/tool-loader
is written by the platform from its own source and will reappear if you delete it.
Affordances
An affordance is what the surface on the other end of the conversation offers the agent: what the client will render, accept or ignore. Not what the agent can do — what it will get away with.
The platform compiles every affordance into one block and appends it to each agent session, so an agent
knows things it could not otherwise discover from the filesystem. plugins/CLAUDE.md in the platform is
the authority on the format and on what belongs in one.
Layout is <publisher>/<plugin>/, with core in the plugin slot for the platform's own. A plugin ships
its own affordances/ directory and installing it copies them in.
Updating
git pull, or press Update all on the platform's marketplace screen, which updates this alongside
every installed plugin.
Your own untracked items are unaffected by either.
