an agent deleted two proxy hosts and both stayed on screen. the person had the
answer in the transcript and a stale list six inches above it — which is the
one thing a chat beside a list has to get right, and the reason it is beside
the list at all.
so the chat panel bumps the refresh channel when a turn ran tools, and every
section re-reads. gated on hadToolCalls: a turn that only talked changed
nothing, and re-reading after every sentence would put six requests behind
every reply.
the channel is renamed with it. it was proxy-manager:connection-changed, named
after its only publisher; it has two now and the second is the bigger one, so
it says what it MEANS — something at NPM changed, read it again.

reported on the first successful save: everything still showed no data and the
form stayed open, and a manual page refresh was the only way through.
two faults, one report. the form did not close itself — nothing cleared
?config, so a save left the settings view sitting on top of a plugin that now
worked. and the two reader panels are SIBLINGS in a workspace layout: they are
mounted independently, neither owns the other, and ConnectionPanel cannot call
into them. so they went on showing the failure they had loaded back when no
connection existed.
a channel is the sanctioned answer for exactly this — docs/navigation-audit.md
puts addressable state in the URL and leaves channels for "something changed,
re-read it". nobody wants to link to the moment after a save.
the nonce is a plain module counter, copied deliberately from officerdev's
channels.ts along with the reason: setSignal(n => n + 1) applies against the
value captured at render, so two bumps in one render window both compute
snapshot + 1 and the second overwrites the first — and nobody re-reads.
Date.now() is the same bug at millisecond scale.
disconnect bumps it too. the panels must stop showing hosts they can no longer
reach.

first real test of the settings form returned openresty's 502 Bad Gateway
document, markup and all, into the panel. installing this plugin restarts
officer, and a request made inside that window reaches nginx proxy manager,
finds nothing behind it, and gets a web page back. useClient throws the
response body as the message, so the panel printed it.
worth keeping the irony: this plugin manages the proxy whose error page it
could not read.
the check is the body's SHAPE, not the status, because there is no status that
separates them — api/router.ts uses 502 for "NPM answered and refused", which
is a real answer we must not swallow. ours arrives as a sentence, theirs as a
document. gateway status AND html means the hop in front of officer answered;
html on its own still is not a sentence and says so without the tags.
all three panels go through it now.

the plugin could not be configured. /_config had GET, PUT, DELETE and a test
that validates without storing, and nothing rendered any of it — the
connection had to be inserted by hand.
ConnectionPanel is both the wizard and the settings page, one component, the
same choice jellyfin's ConnectionSection makes and for the same reason: a
connection edited months later goes through exactly the path that stored the
first one. HostsPanel shows it when nothing is configured and on ?config=1,
which is in the URL so it survives a refresh. test comes before save and
stores nothing, so a wrong password cannot replace a working one. the secret
field starts empty even when one is stored, and empty means keep — that is
what lets a typo in the URL be fixed without going to find the password.
and while wiring the unconfigured case, it turned out that case never fired.
both panels read `(error as { body?: Failure }).body` to decide whether a
failure was unconfigured, unauthenticated or unreachable. useClient throws
ApiError(status, message) and has no `.body` at all, so that was always
undefined: every failure fell through to the generic message, and the careful
explanation of NPM's 404-means-credential quirk was written, shipped and
unreachable. asFailure now reads the STATUS, which the router already chooses
deliberately — 409 nothing stored, 503 no answer, 502 answered and refused.
owner-only is explained rather than reported. a member hitting 403 here reads
why: it is an admin login and NPM has no read-only role.
still not installed, still no db:push.
