the first draft said follow gitea — sidecar serves its own ui, plugin proxies
it, one panel renders an iframe. wrong for this one. atelier was a separate
server because that was the quick answer at the time, and this extraction is
what undoes that: it becomes part of officer, not something officer frames.
and it is smaller than the repository suggests. 1,736 lines of react, but six
of the twenty-five files are shadcn components officer already has, and the
htmx half is eight files that get deleted rather than ported. what is left is
generate, gallery, collections and providers — about 1,200 lines.
providers is a settings screen, not a panel, so it moves to officer's settings
surface. src/servers/providers/ is already adapter-shaped, so the point of
moving it is that a SECOND provider becomes a new file rather than a new
screen. the brief says explicitly not to add one in this run — leave the seam,
say so in PLUGIN.md.
still a sidecar, for the one reason that survives the ui moving: generation is
long-running, capped by ATELIER_MAX_CONCURRENCY, and holds a credential the
platform must not. the ui is officer's; the work is the sidecar's.
added the trap that follows from all of this: "every image has a permanent
URL" was true of a standalone server with its own PUBLIC_URL, and inside
officer that url is behind the session. an <img> cannot carry a token — the
core affordance says why — so anything needing an unauthenticated image is a
blocker to record, not a route to open.
