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.

index.html hardcoded the deployment's domain in eight places, so every instance
had to carry its own edit of the file — the only thing separating the rezio
branch from master.
The tags genuinely need absolute URLs. OpenGraph is fetched standalone by
crawlers, and Bun's HTML bundler treats a root-relative href as an asset to
resolve on disk, failing the build with "Could not resolve: /favicon.ico" —
external URLs are the only form it passes through untouched.
Bun's HTML import offers no substitution hook, so scripts/gen-index.ts swaps
__PUBLIC_URL__ for the value in .env and writes index.gen.html, which the server
imports. index.html is the tracked template and is now identical on every
deployment; index.gen.html is gitignored. predev/prestart run the generator, and
it is idempotent so --watch does not loop.
Substituting also fixes the manifest: an absolute URL puts its fetch in CORS
mode, which failed whenever the hardcoded domain was not the serving origin.

origin-validation: the production web origin now reads from PUBLIC_URL (.env), e.g.
https://officer.pastilhas.dev, instead of a hardcoded domain; drop alpha.officer.dev.
officer-web/index.html: point og:image/favicon/manifest/etc. at the new domain (served
locally from public/).
