an exclusionary rule, made structural. a plugin does not render a screen: it
contributes panels and says how they are arranged, and the shell renders
WorkspaceView around them.
web/panels.ts appRegistryMetas — at least one panel
web/layout.ts defaultLayout — how they are arranged
both required the moment web/ exists, and missing either is refused at discovery
by name and with the reason. tested:
probeplug: has a web/ directory but is missing web/layout.ts.
Every plugin route renders a Workspace: contribute panels and a layout,
not a screen.
there is deliberately no way to export a component. one that could would be free
to render a bare div, a full-page form, or its own navigation, and the platform
would become a shell hosting strangers' layouts rather than one application.
non-compliance is not so much refused as unrepresentable — there is nowhere to
put a screen.
the shell registers <prefix> and <prefix>/:section, exactly as the core screens
do, so a plugin's sections stay addressable and cmd-clickable, and panels read
useParams independently rather than passing state between themselves.
appTypes.allowed is pinned to that plugin's own keys, so a persisted layout
naming something else falls back instead of rendering another plugin's panel
inside this screen.
the example plugin is rebuilt to model it — two panels, a layout, one of them
calling its own /api/example/ping through useClient — because the reference
implementation is what everyone copies.

ALL_DOCK_ITEMS was a hardcoded list of everything, so a fresh machine offered Photos, Jellyfin,
Transmission and the rest — each leading to a screen reporting itself unavailable — and adding a sidecar
meant editing the shell. Neither survives sidecars shipping from their own repositories.
Split in two. CORE_DOCK_ITEMS is the baseline that exists on every install: chat, files, terminal, the
app's own screens, and Gitea, which is in the light profile because it fronts a remote instance.
Everything else is derived from installed sidecars' UI manifests, delivered with /capabilities.
Sent with the capability answer rather than fetched separately so the dock has ONE source. Two requests
means two moments, and a dock rendered between them shows a tile for something uninstalled or nothing
for something installed. Filtered by capability server-side too: a member is not handed the manifest of
a feature they cannot use, because "hidden in the client" is the kind of privacy that lasts until
someone opens the network tab.
Verified live. The owner — who bypasses every permission check — does not bypass this: /photos is absent
from routes and present in deniedRoutes because Photos is not installed. Flipping a row's `enabled`
makes its tile leave and return with no process touched.
Two things fell out. A manifest can declare extraTiles, because CalDAV is one sidecar presenting as
Calendar AND Contacts, and collapsing them to keep the model tidy would make the app worse. And
DEFAULT_DOCK_PATHS no longer pins /music: useDock drops a path with nothing behind it, so the default
dock came up a tile short on any machine where Music was never installed — a default that references an
optional feature is how an app looks subtly wrong on a fresh install for no stated reason.

Five settings pages moved from a `*_SELECTED` global to `/settings/:page/:section`. The
sidebar entry is a react-router `<NavLink>` rather than a button holding the key in its
onClick closure, so a section is linkable, cmd-clickable and gets its active state from the
router; each page renders one `SettingsRoute` guard that canonicalises both the bare route
and a section that does not exist.
Integrations needed more than the shared factory. It builds its own sidebar, and it kept the
Enterprise/Personal tab in a second global — which is why a deep link to a Personal section
could never have worked: the link set the section, the tab stayed on Enterprise, and the
content pane said "Select a section" about a section that existed. The tab is derived from
the section key now.
Also removes the `/settings/resources` menu item (audit M8) and its two locale keys: there
has never been such a route, so it bounced to the catch-all and out to `/`.
Three unrelated type errors that each pointed at something actually broken:
- Dashboard.CodeEditor was deleted in ab03b17 ("Projects") while the
/code-editor route and the dock's Editor item kept pointing at it, so the
route rendered undefined. Screen restored.
- Appearance.tsx imported 'themes', a workspace deleted in 0746844. Nothing
reads settings.appearance.colorTheme and no theme CSS survives, so the picker
was writing a value with no consumer. Removed it and the setting; colorMode
stays, it is live.
- officerdev exported both a component and a type named AppRegistry, so
`import { AppRegistry }` resolved to the type and <AppRegistry /> failed to
typecheck. Renamed the Record type to AppRegistryMap.
Also declares "*.css" so side-effect stylesheet imports resolve.

Two-tier model policy: system policy (admin, allowedModels) controls
member access, per-user hiddenModels controls personal visibility.
All model selectors now use useUserVisibleModels. Moved providers
and model visibility out of system settings, AI models out of profile.

- Delete legacy hooks: useClaude.ts, useOpenCode.ts, usePiMono.ts, App.backup.tsx
- Update all components to use usePi instead of legacy hooks
- Replace useVisiblePiMonoModels/useClaudeModels/useOpenCodeModels with useVisiblePiModels
- Migrate from LegacyChatMessage to ChatMessage type throughout
- Update SessionBar to remove provider and archive props
- Simplify ChatDetailPanel to Pi-only (remove Claude/OpenCode components)
- Fix useChatSessions calls (remove provider parameter)
- Update user-settings types: provider now only 'pi' instead of legacy values
- Update PI_HARNESS_REBUILD.md to mark phases complete
