Widget plugins can now declare capabilities.widget.slot 'hero' to render as a
transparent, click-through overlay sitting on the boarding-pass bar's top edge
(migration 157 persists capabilities; manifest validation server+SDK, feed
exposes the slot, dashboard mounts hero frames above the pass). Sidebar stays
the default slot.
Replaces the trip-countdown example with Koffi, the TREK mascot: an animated
suitcase with a 14-state behavior engine driven by real trip data — walking,
waving, napping, trolley rolls, passport-stamp stickers, a split-flap luggage-
tag countdown under 7 days, and sunglasses while the trip runs. Validated by
the SDK suite like any author plugin; published as mauriceboe/trek-plugin-koffi
in the registry.
Migrations 156/157 follow the idempotent ALTER pattern (the reconciliation
test re-runs everything from v135, so duplicate-column must stay non-fatal).
Plugins placed on the /plugins volume are now discovered, validated and registered
as inactive, ready to activate.
- manifest.ts: strict trek-plugin.json validation (id/version/type, known
permissions only, egress required with http:outbound, native modules rejected).
- discovery.ts: scans the volume on startup + on demand (POST /api/admin/plugins/
rescan), upserts rows INACTIVE, refreshes settings-field descriptors, and never
downgrades or wipes an already-installed plugin's status / grants / config.
Invalid or native-carrying plugins are skipped and logged.
- Activation now grants the DECLARED permissions (the consent gate) and persists
them before spawning.
- install/ utilities for the registry installer (M5), each independently tested:
- safe-fetch: host allowlist (GitHub only) + private-IP refusal + manual
redirect following + size cap + sha256 (constant-time compare).
- safe-extract: zip/tar-slip-safe extraction with its own minimal tar.gz + zip
readers; rejects traversal, absolute paths, symlinks, oversized/too-many
entries, and unsupported formats.
- native-scan: refuses .node / binding.gyp / prebuilds, never follows symlinks.
