pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 6d673a1321 plugins: a plugin's tasks are read where they live
the last piece of docs/plugin-capabilities.md. skills, affordances and
notification catalogues already loaded from each installed and enabled
plugin's own directory; tasks did not, so the transcribe plugin shipped a
task nothing could see — right-clicking an .m4a offered no Run Task at all.

it turned out to be one function rather than several. every path that runs
a task resolves it through getTaskByDirName and then reads implementation
off the record, so the sources go in there and in listTasks and a plugin's
task is runnable everywhere at once, identity unchanged: still a directory
name, still what pipeline_jobs stores.

the record carries `plugin` and that one field does the rest. updateTask
and deleteTask throw on it, DELETE /api/tasks/:name answers 409 naming the
plugin, and the capability screen shows whose it is instead of an edit and
a delete that cannot work. without the delete guard it was quietly a no-op:
rm -rf on a path in the owner's store that does not exist, then ok: true,
and the task still in the menu.

owner's store first, so a plugin cannot take over a name already in use.

getTaskByDirName now refuses a name containing a separator. it always
joined a caller-supplied string onto a path — from a websocket message and
a job row — and searching several roots is the moment that stops being one
directory nobody could escape.

capabilityRootsFrom is gone; it was dead. capabilitySources replaces it and
carries the provenance, with capabilityRoots the thin map over it that the
loaders that only want paths still use.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 8770f98dcd capabilities: read a plugin's where they live, stop copying them in
Four publishers copied a plugin's affordances, notifications and skills into
capabilities/ at install. That directory is meant to be forked — core's work
plus the owner's — so a fork accumulated files it did not author with nothing on
disk saying which, and there was no good answer: commit them and carry another
plugin's work, leave them and git status stays dirty.

Copying was also wrong in two ways unrelated to git. A copy goes stale, because
plugins:update pulls the plugin's directory and the copy keeps describing the
old version. And a copy survived plugins:disable, so a disabled plugin's skill
stayed in the agent's index — off, and still being announced.

Now the loaders take a list of roots: the owner's store, plus each installed AND
enabled plugin's own directory. capability-sources.ts resolves that list. No
namespace is needed to keep them apart, because separate directories do it
structurally rather than by convention.

The owner's own win a skill name collision — their root is first and the merge
keeps the first of each id — so a plugin cannot take over a name already in use.
Affordances are deliberately NOT de-duplicated: several can be true at once.

Notifications needed more than a root list, and it would have failed silently.
Their codes were derived from the COPY'S PATH, <publisher>/<appName>/file.yaml.
Read in place the path is just notifications/catalogue.yaml and carries no
identity, so every plugin code would have vanished with nothing raised.
loadPluginEntries takes the identity from the manifest instead, which is better
provenance anyway — publisher and appName are validated at discovery, where a
path was only ever a directory somebody chose. A yaml key still cannot claim
another namespace, and that is pinned by test.

createSession is async now, only because resolving enabled plugins reads the
database. Once per session; its single caller already awaited.

Deletes all four publishers including api/tasks/publish.ts from earlier today,
superseded before it shipped. app-store/assets stays — images served over HTTP,
where the copy is what makes them reachable.

NOT done: tasks. That store is read-write, so reads must span sources while
writes stay in the owner's directory, and a plugin's task has to be read-only in
the UI. Next.

Two things the design predicted as orphans turned out not to be, and both were
checked before deleting rather than after. capabilities/extensions/tool-loader
is written by the platform's own bootstrap every boot, not published by a
plugin. And skills/email-db has no source to fall back on — the email plugin
ships no skills directory, so that file exists in exactly one place and was
hand-written. Neither was touched.

1422 pass, tsgo clean, officer restarts and serves.
