+## Verification language policy
+
+**Do not say "checked", "verified", "works", or "all good" unless a concrete
+verification command or user scenario was executed.**
+
+Use exact labels:
+- Build checked
+- Unit tests checked
+- Backend behavior checked
+- Frontend E2E checked
+- Real desktop GUI checked
+- Not checked / requires manual verification
+
+If GUI behavior was not clicked and asserted, report:
+"GUI behavior was not verified."
+
+### GUI testing
+
+Frontend E2E tests are in `frontend/e2e/`. Run with `npm run test:e2e`.
+These tests use Playwright + mocked Wails bindings. They test Svelte component
+logic and user interactions in a real Chromium browser.
+
+**Limitations:** Playwright tests do NOT test the real WebKitGTK/Wails native
+shell. For real desktop GUI verification, a separate AT-SPI/xdotool layer is
+needed (not yet implemented).
+
+See `docs/GUI_TESTING.md` for details.
+
+## Debug logging
+
+**Always use debug logging when investigating issues. Never rely on "it should work" — look at the logs.**
+
+### Backend debug
+
+Enable with `--debug` flag:
+```bash
+./verstak-desktop --debug
+```
+
+Logs go to: `~/.local/share/verstak/debug/verstak-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.log`
+
+View in real-time:
+```bash
+tail -f ~/.local/share/verstak/debug/verstak-*.log
+```
+
+What's logged (when `--debug` is active):
+- Plugin discovery: dirs scanned, each plugin found (id, name, version, source, root)
+- Plugin lifecycle: capability registration, contribution registration, status transitions
+- API calls: GetPlugins, GetContributions, GetCapabilities, ReloadPlugins, EnablePlugin, DisablePlugin
+- Vault operations: open/close/status
+
+### Frontend debug
+
+Enable via **either**:
+1. URL query param: `?debug` (not practical in Wails, use #2)
+2. In browser console: `localStorage.setItem('verstak-debug', 'true')` then reload
+
+Logs go to:
+- Browser console (with `[debug]` prefix)
+- localStorage buffer: `localStorage.getItem('verstak-debug-log')` (last 1000 entries)
+
+Export frontend log from console:
+```javascript
+copy(JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('verstak-debug-log')))
+// or
+window.__verstakDebug.exportLog()
+```
+
+What's logged:
+- App startup: checkVault, GetAppSettings, GetVaultStatus
+- Navigation: onNav, onOpenView, onOpenSettings, onCloseSettings
+- PluginManager: loadAll (start/end, plugin count, each plugin status), reload, enable/disable
+- Sidebar: onMount (plugins loaded, sidebar items count), handleNav, handleSidebarItem
+
+### Debug workflow
+
+1. User reports issue
+2. Restart app with `--debug` and reproduce
+3. Run `tail -f ~/.local/share/verstak/debug/verstak-*.log` and share output
+4. For frontend issues: enable frontend debug view `exportLog()` output
+5. Analyze logs, identify root cause, fix
+6. Verify fix by asking user to reproduce again with debug on
+
+**Never skip step 2-4. Always look at real logs before proposing fixes.**

+
+> [!WARNING]
+> Verstak is currently **alpha software**. APIs, storage formats and packaging may change before the first stable release. Use a test vault and keep backups of important data.
+
+## What is Verstak?
+
+Verstak is a local-first workbench that keeps the context around your work in one place.
+
+A **Deal** can represent almost anything:
+
+* a software project;
+* a client or customer;
+* a server or infrastructure site;
+* a device under repair;
+* an article or research topic;
+* a training course;
+* a personal long-term project.
+
+Normally, information about such work is scattered across directories, notes, browser tabs, task managers, password managers, terminal history and memory.
+
+Verstak brings it together in a local **vault** that remains under your control.
+
+No account, cloud service or sync server is required for local use.
+
+## Verstak in use
+
+| Overview: return to a Deal and see its recent work, captures and items that need attention. | Files: manage ordinary folders and documents inside a Deal. |
+| --- | --- |
+| ![Current Verstak Overview in a test vault](docs/screenshots/overview-en.png) | ![Current Verstak Deal files in a test vault](docs/screenshots/files-en.png) |
+
+| Notes: keep Markdown notes next to the Deal they describe. | Journal: record a completed session and retain its context. |

+
+## Download and install
+
+Download the latest build from the
+[GitHub Releases page](https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak/releases/latest).
+
+Release packages already include the matching official plugins.
+
+| System                            | Download                                  | Installation                                  |
+| --------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
+| Debian 13 / Ubuntu 24.04 or newer | `verstak_<version>_amd64.deb`             | Install through APT.                          |
+| Other x86_64 Linux distributions  | `verstak-linux-x86_64-<version>.AppImage` | Make the file executable and run it.          |
+| Windows 10/11 x64                 | `verstak-windows-amd64-<version>.zip`     | Extract the archive and launch `Verstak.cmd`. |
+
+### Debian and Ubuntu
+
+```bash
+sudo apt install ./verstak_*_amd64.deb
+```
+
+Launch Verstak from the application menu or run:
+
+```bash
+verstak
+```
+
+### AppImage
+
+```bash
+chmod +x verstak-linux-x86_64-*.AppImage
+./verstak-linux-x86_64-*.AppImage
+```
+
+On a system without FUSE support:
+
+```bash
+APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1 ./verstak-linux-x86_64-*.AppImage
+```
+
+### Windows portable version
+
+1. Download `verstak-windows-amd64-<version>.zip`.
+2. Extract it to a local directory.
+3. Run `Verstak.cmd`.
+
+Do not run Verstak directly from inside the ZIP archive or from a network share.
+
+Verstak uses the Microsoft WebView2 Runtime. It is already included with Windows 11 and most current Windows 10 installations. If Verstak does not start, install the
+[Microsoft WebView2 Runtime x64](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=2124701).
+
+## Background and tray mode
+
+Closing the main window keeps Verstak running in the system tray. Use **Show Verstak** to bring it back and **Quit** to exit the application completely. This lets scheduled Todo reminders continue while the window is hidden.
+
+### Verify a download
+
+Each release includes a `SHA256SUMS` file.
+
+On Linux:
+
+```bash
+sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing
+```
+
+## First start
+
+### 1. Create or open a vault
+
+A **vault** is the root directory where Verstak stores your work.
+
+Choose a writable local directory. For example:
+
+```text
+Documents/
+└── Verstak/
+```
+
+Your files and notes remain ordinary files that can be accessed without Verstak.
+
+### 2. Create your first Deal
+
+Inside the vault, create a Deal for a project, client, server, device or another area of work.
+
+For example:
+
+```text
+Home server
+Customer Alpha
+Verstak development
+3D printer
+Training course
+```
+
+### 3. Add context
+
+Open the Deal and add the information needed to return to it later:
+
+* notes and decisions;
+* documents and source files;
+* useful links;
+* access information;
+* journal entries;
+* tasks;
+* materials captured from the browser.
+
+### 4. Return through Overview
+
+The Overview screen shows recent changes, unfinished captures, activity and other useful entry points back into your work.
+
+## How Verstak stores data
+
+Verstak follows several principles:
+
+* your vault is local and works without an account or internet connection;
+* files and notes remain readable outside the application;
+* synchronization is optional and is not the source of truth;
+* the user should understand where data is stored and what happens to it;
+* application tools are provided by plugins rather than being permanently embedded into the core.
+
+The desktop application loads plugins from a `plugins/` directory located beside the executable.
+
+## Browser integration
+
+The optional browser extension can send the following into Browser Inbox:
+
+* the current page;
+* selected text;
+* a link;
+* a downloaded or selected file.
+
+Repository:
+
+[mirivlad/verstak-browser-extension](https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-browser-extension)
+
+To connect the extension:
+
+1. Open Browser Inbox settings in Verstak.
+2. Copy the Receiver URL and Pairing Token.
+3. Paste them into the extension settings.
+4. Save the settings and send a test page.
+
+Passive domain activity tracking is disabled by default. When enabled, it sends bounded time totals by normalized domain. It does not send page contents, keystrokes or full browsing history.
+
+## Optional synchronization
+
+Local use does not require a server.
+
+For synchronization between devices, deploy the optional self-hosted
+[Verstak Sync Server](https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-sync-server).
+
+Each vault is connected separately. The local vault remains the primary copy of your data.
+
+## Build from source
+
+### Requirements
+
+* Go 1.24 or newer;
+* Node.js 20 or newer with npm;
+* Python 3;
+* Git;
+* Wails v2 build dependencies;
+* WebKitGTK development packages on Linux.
+* Ayatana AppIndicator development files on Linux (`sudo apt install libayatana-appindicator3-dev`).
+
+See the
+[Wails installation documentation](https://wails.io/docs/gettingstarted/installation/)
+for distribution-specific dependencies.
+
+### Clone the repositories
+
+The desktop, SDK and official plugin repositories must be cloned as sibling directories:
+
+```text
+verstak-source/
+├── verstak/
+├── verstak-sdk/
+└── verstak-official-plugins/
+```
+
+```bash
+mkdir verstak-source
+cd verstak-source
+
+git clone https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak.git
+git clone https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-sdk.git
+git clone https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-official-plugins.git
+```
+
+### Build
+
+```bash
+cd verstak-sdk
+./scripts/build.sh
+
+cd ../verstak-official-plugins
+./scripts/build.sh
+
+cd ../verstak
+./scripts/install-dev-plugins.sh
+./scripts/build.sh
+```
+
+The resulting application will be located at:
+
+```bash
+./build/bin/verstak-desktop
+```
+
+Run it with additional diagnostics:
+
+```bash
+./build/bin/verstak-desktop --debug
+```
+
+## Build release packages locally
+
+These commands create local artifacts in `release/`. They do not publish a GitHub Release.
+
+### Debian package
+
+```bash
+./scripts/package-deb.sh v0.1.0-alpha.1
+```
+
+### AppImage
+
+```bash
+./scripts/package-appimage.sh v0.1.0-alpha.1
+```
+
+### Windows portable ZIP
+
+The Windows archive can be cross-compiled on Linux using MinGW:
+
+```bash
+sudo apt install gcc-mingw-w64-x86-64 zip
+./scripts/package-windows-portable.sh v0.1.0-alpha.1
+```

+
+> [!WARNING]
+> Верстак пока находится на стадии **alpha**. До первого стабильного выпуска могут меняться API, форматы хранения и состав пакетов. Для знакомства используйте тестовый vault и сохраняйте резервные копии важных данных.
+
+## Что такое Верстак
+
+Верстак — это local-first рабочая среда, которая удерживает в одном месте контекст вокруг ваших дел.
+
+**Делом** может быть что угодно:
+
+* программный проект;
+* клиент или заказчик;
+* сервер или площадка;
+* ремонтируемое устройство;
+* статья или исследование;
+* учебный курс;
+* личный долгосрочный проект.
+
+Обычно информация о таком деле расползается по папкам, заметкам, браузерным вкладкам, менеджерам задач, хранилищам паролей, истории терминала и памяти.
+
+Верстак собирает её в один локальный **vault**, который остаётся под вашим контролем.
+
+Для локальной работы не нужны учётная запись, облачный сервис или собственный сервер.
+
+## Верстак в работе
+
+| Обзор: возвращает к делу и показывает недавнюю работу, входящие и то, что требует внимания. | Файлы: обычные папки и документы прямо внутри дела. |
+| --- | --- |
+| ![Актуальный экран «Обзор» Верстака в тестовом vault](docs/screenshots/overview-ru.png) | ![Актуальные файлы дела в тестовом vault Верстака](docs/screenshots/files-ru.png) |
+
+| Заметки: Markdown-заметки остаются рядом с делом, которое они описывают. | Журнал: фиксирует завершённую работу и её контекст. |
+| --- | --- |
+| ![Актуальные заметки Верстака в тестовом vault](docs/screenshots/notes-ru.png) | ![Актуальный журнал Верстака в тестовом vault](docs/screenshots/journal-ru.png) |
+
+## Основные возможности
+
+| Возможность              | Что она даёт                                                                                   |
+| ------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Дела**                 | Объединяют файлы, заметки и историю работы вокруг проектов, клиентов и других направлений.     |
+| **Файлы**                | Позволяют работать с обычными файлами, расположенными внутри vault.                            |
+| **Заметки**              | Markdown-заметки, обзорные страницы и связи между материалами.                                 |
+| **Обзор**                | Помогает быстро вернуться к недавней работе и увидеть то, что требует внимания.                |
+| **Входящие из браузера** | Принимают страницы, ссылки, выделенный текст и файлы из браузера.                              |
+| **Активность и журнал**  | Помогают восстановить рабочие сессии и превратить выбранную активность в записи журнала.       |
+| **Задачи**               | Необязательные списки задач внутри отдельных дел и во всём vault.                              |
+| **Поиск**                | Ищет по заметкам, файлам и данным поддерживаемых плагинов.                                     |
+| **Корзина**              | Позволяет восстановить удалённое или окончательно удалить его из одного общего раздела.        |
+| **Секреты**              | Хранит доступы и учётные данные рядом с делом, к которому они относятся.                       |
+| **Шаблоны**              | Создают повторяемую структуру для однотипных дел.                                              |
+| **Плагины**              | Позволяют добавлять, заменять и отключать инструменты, не превращая Верстак в жёсткий монолит. |
+| **Синхронизация**        | Необязательно синхронизирует vault между устройствами через собственный сервер.                |
+
+## Скачивание и установка
+
+Готовые сборки находятся на странице
+[GitHub Releases](https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak/releases/latest).
+
+В релизные пакеты уже входят совместимые версии официальных плагинов. Устанавливать их отдельно не требуется.
+
+| Система                          | Какой файл скачать                       | Как установить                               |

+
+```bash
+sudo apt install ./verstak_*_amd64.deb
+```
+
+После установки запустите Верстак из меню приложений или командой:
+
+```bash
+verstak
+```
+
+### AppImage
+
+```bash
+chmod +x verstak-linux-x86_64-*.AppImage
+./verstak-linux-x86_64-*.AppImage
+```
+
+Если в системе нет поддержки FUSE:
+
+```bash
+APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1 ./verstak-linux-x86_64-*.AppImage
+```
+
+### Портативная версия для Windows
+
+1. Скачайте `verstak-windows-amd64-<версия>.zip`.
+2. Распакуйте архив в локальную папку.
+3. Запустите `Verstak.cmd`.
+
+Не запускайте Верстак прямо из ZIP-архива или с сетевого диска.
+
+Верстак использует Microsoft WebView2 Runtime. Он уже присутствует в Windows 11 и большинстве актуальных установок Windows 10. Если приложение не запускается, установите
+[Microsoft WebView2 Runtime x64](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=2124701).
+
+## Фоновая работа и трей
+
+Закрытие главного окна не завершает Верстак: приложение остаётся в системном трее. Выберите **Show Verstak**, чтобы вернуть окно, или **Quit**, чтобы полностью завершить приложение. Благодаря этому напоминания Todo продолжают работать, пока окно скрыто.
+
+### Проверка скачанного файла
+
+В каждый релиз входит файл `SHA256SUMS`.
+
+Проверка в Linux:
+
+```bash
+sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing
+```
+
+## Первый запуск
+
+### 1. Создайте или откройте vault
+
+**Vault** — это корневая папка, в которой Верстак хранит ваши дела.
+
+Выберите доступный для записи локальный каталог. Например:
+
+```text
+Документы/
+└── Верстак/
+```
+
+Файлы и заметки остаются обычными файлами. Их можно открыть и без Верстака.
+
+### 2. Создайте первое дело
+
+Внутри vault создайте дело для проекта, клиента, сервера, устройства или другого направления работы.
+
+Например:
+
+```text
+Домашний сервер
+Заказчик Альфа
+Разработка Верстака
+3D-принтер
+Учебный курс
+```
+
+### 3. Соберите контекст
+
+Добавьте в дело всё, что поможет вернуться к нему через неделю, месяц или год:
+
+* заметки и принятые решения;
+* документы и исходные файлы;
+* полезные ссылки;
+* данные для доступа;
+* записи журнала;
+* задачи;
+* материалы, отправленные из браузера.
+
+### 4. Возвращайтесь через Обзор
+
+Экран «Обзор» показывает недавние изменения, необработанные входящие, активность и другие подходящие точки для продолжения работы.
+
+## Как Верстак хранит данные
+
+Верстак придерживается нескольких принципов:
+
+* vault хранится локально и доступен без учётной записи и интернета;
+* файлы и заметки остаются читаемыми вне приложения;
+* синхронизация является дополнением, а не источником истины;
+* пользователь должен понимать, где находятся его данные и что с ними происходит;
+* инструменты реализуются плагинами, а не навсегда встраиваются в ядро.
+
+Настольное приложение загружает плагины из каталога `plugins/`, расположенного рядом с исполняемым файлом.
+
+## Интеграция с браузером
+
+Необязательное расширение позволяет отправлять во «Входящие из браузера»:
+
+* текущую страницу;
+* выделенный текст;
+* ссылку;
+* выбранный или скачанный файл.
+
+Репозиторий расширения:
+
+[mirivlad/verstak-browser-extension](https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-browser-extension)
+
+Чтобы подключить расширение:
+
+1. Откройте настройки «Входящих из браузера» в Верстаке.
+2. Скопируйте адрес приёмника и токен сопряжения.
+3. Вставьте их в настройки расширения.
+4. Сохраните настройки и отправьте тестовую страницу.
+
+Пассивный учёт активности по доменам по умолчанию отключён. После включения расширение передаёт только ограниченные интервалы времени для нормализованных доменов. Оно не отправляет содержимое страниц, нажатия клавиш или полную историю посещений.
+
+## Необязательная синхронизация
+
+Для локального использования сервер не нужен.
+
+Для синхронизации между устройствами можно развернуть собственный
+[Verstak Sync Server](https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-sync-server).
+
+Каждый vault подключается отдельно. Основной копией данных остаётся локальный vault.
+
+## Сборка из исходного кода
+
+### Требования
+
+* Go 1.24 или новее;
+* Node.js 20 или новее и npm;
+* Python 3;
+* Git;
+* зависимости для сборки Wails v2;
+* пакеты разработки WebKitGTK в Linux.
+* файлы разработки Ayatana AppIndicator в Linux (`sudo apt install libayatana-appindicator3-dev`).
+
+Зависимости для конкретного дистрибутива перечислены в
+[документации Wails](https://wails.io/docs/gettingstarted/installation/).
+
+### Клонирование репозиториев
+
+Desktop, SDK и официальные плагины должны находиться в соседних каталогах:
+
+```text
+verstak-source/
+├── verstak/
+├── verstak-sdk/
+└── verstak-official-plugins/
+```
+
+```bash
+mkdir verstak-source
+cd verstak-source
+
+git clone https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak.git
+git clone https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-sdk.git
+git clone https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-official-plugins.git
+```
+
+### Сборка
+
+```bash
+cd verstak-sdk
+./scripts/build.sh
+
+cd ../verstak-official-plugins
+./scripts/build.sh
+
+cd ../verstak
+./scripts/install-dev-plugins.sh
+./scripts/build.sh
+```
+
+Готовое приложение появится по адресу:
+
+```bash
+./build/bin/verstak-desktop
+```
+
+Запуск с дополнительной диагностикой:
+
+```bash
+./build/bin/verstak-desktop --debug
+```
+
+## Локальная сборка релизных пакетов
+
+Следующие команды создают пакеты в каталоге `release/`, но не публикуют GitHub Release.
+
+### Пакет Debian
+
+```bash
+./scripts/package-deb.sh v0.1.0-alpha.1
+```
+
+### AppImage
+
+```bash
+./scripts/package-appimage.sh v0.1.0-alpha.1
+```
+
+### Портативный ZIP для Windows
+
+Windows-версию можно собрать в Linux при помощи MinGW:
+
+```bash
+sudo apt install gcc-mingw-w64-x86-64 zip
+./scripts/package-windows-portable.sh v0.1.0-alpha.1
+```

 ## Desktop Runtime Scanning Paths
 
-The desktop scans two directories for plugins:
+The desktop resolves plugin directories in one shared backend resolver. Priority:
 
 | Path | Purpose |
 |------|---------|
+| `VERSTAK_PLUGIN_DIR` | Dev/test override. Multiple paths can be separated with the OS path separator |
+| `./plugins/` | Bundled/dev plugins relative to the current working directory |
+| `<binary-dir>/plugins/` | Packaged plugins shipped next to the desktop executable |
 | `~/.config/verstak/plugins/` | User-installed plugins |
-| `./plugins/` | Bundled/dev plugins (project-local) |
+
+The resolver normalizes paths and removes duplicates before scanning. Missing
+directories are ignored by discovery.
+
+Discovery scans all resolved directories in order. If two plugin packages declare
+the same `id`, the first package wins and later duplicates are skipped. The
+warning includes both package paths, so during development check the log if an
+updated plugin appears to be ignored.
+
+## Bundled Plugin API During Development
+
+Frontend bundles are mounted with a plugin-scoped API created by
+`createPluginAPI(pluginId)`. The current API supports:
+
+- `settings.read/write/writeAll`
+- `capabilities.list/get/has`
+- `commands.register/execute` for handlers declared in `contributes.commands`
+- `events.publish/subscribe` using the bundled frontend event bus
+- `files.list/metadata/readText/readBytes/writeText/createFolder/move/trash/listTrash/restoreTrash/deleteTrash/openExternal/showInFolder`
+  for canonical vault-relative slash paths guarded by `files.read`,
+  `files.write`, `files.delete`, and `files.openExternal`. Backslashes,
+  Windows absolute paths, UNC paths, traversal, `.verstak` variants, and
+  symlink read/write/move/trash/external-open operations are rejected. Text
+  read/write is UTF-8 only and limited to 2 MB for text reads; `readBytes`
+  returns base64 for regular files up to 8 MB.
+- `workbench.openResource/editResource` for routing vault resources to
+  contributed `openProviders`. Plugins must declare `workbench.open`; this is a
+  policy/contract check. Files and Notes plugins call this API and do not import
+  a concrete editor plugin.
+
+Editor/viewer plugins contribute providers with `contributes.openProviders`.
+Workbench selects by resource kind, request mode, extension/mime, context
+(`generic-text`, `generic-markdown`, `notes-markdown`), user preference, priority, then
+deterministic `pluginId/providerId` tie-break. If nothing matches, Workbench
+shows `no-provider` fallback instead of a core editor.
+
+The official `verstak.default-editor` plugin provides three openProviders:
+`verstak.default-editor.text` (generic-text), `verstak.default-editor.markdown`
+(generic-markdown), and `verstak.default-editor.notes-markdown` (notes-context).
+It uses a single unified `DefaultEditor` component with textarea-based editing,
+simple markdown preview, dirty state tracking, and Ctrl+S save.
+
+This is a cooperative contract, not a sandbox. Bundled plugins run in the same JS
+context as the desktop frontend; real isolation is deferred to the sidecar/sandbox
+milestone.

+# GUI Testing
+
+## Overview
+
+Verstak Desktop uses **Playwright** for frontend E2E tests that run in a real
+Chromium browser with mocked Wails bindings. This tests the Svelte component
+logic, user interactions, and UI state transitions — without needing the actual
+Wails desktop shell.
+
+## What is tested
+
+### Frontend E2E (Playwright)
+
+Located in `frontend/e2e/`, run via `npm run test:e2e`.
+
+These tests:
+
+- Launch a Vite dev server with mock Wails bindings
+- Open the app in a real Chromium browser via Playwright
+- Simulate user clicks, wait for UI transitions, assert DOM state
+- Collect console errors and page errors on failure
+- Capture screenshots on failure
+
+### Test suites
+
+| File | Suite | Tests | Status |
+|------|-------|-------|--------|
+| `plugin-manager-disable-enable.spec.js` | A: Disable/Enable refresh | 4 | pass |
+| `sidebar-opens-view.spec.js` | B: Sidebar → view routing | 3 | 3 pass |
+| `reload-updates-state.spec.js` | C: Reload updates UI | 4 | pass |
+
+## Resolved bugs covered by tests
+
+### Bug M5-1: Sidebar updates when plugin state changes
+
+**Previous symptom:** After disabling a plugin in Plugin Manager, the sidebar
+item for that plugin remained visible. Reloading after external mock state
+changes also left stale sidebar items.
+
+**Current behavior:** `PluginManager.svelte` dispatches
+`verstak:plugins-changed` after reload/enable/disable flows. `Sidebar.svelte`
+listens for that event and re-fetches plugins, vault status, and contributions.
+
+**Regression coverage:**
+
+- `A: Disable plugin: button changes to Enable, sidebar item disappears`
+- `A: Disable → Enable full flow in sequence`
+- `C: Reload after mock state change reflects new plugin status`
+
+## What is NOT tested
+
+### Real desktop GUI (WebKitGTK + Wails native shell)
+
+The Playwright tests run the frontend in a **standard Chromium browser** with
+mocked Wails bindings. They do **not** test:
+
+- Actual WebKitGTK rendering (Wails uses WebKitGTK, not Chromium)
+- Native window management (minimize, maximize, resize)
+- Native file dialogs (SelectDirectory, SelectVaultForOpen)
+- Clipboard integration
+- System tray / menu bar
+- Plugin frontend bundle loading from real filesystem
+- Wails event system (window.runtime.EventsOn/Emit)
+
+For real Wails smoke tests, a separate layer is needed using:
+- **AT-SPI2** (Linux accessibility tree inspection)
+- **xdotool** / **ydotool** (input simulation)
+- **scrot** / **import** (screenshot capture)
+
+## Running tests
+
+```bash
+cd frontend
+
+# Run all E2E tests (headless)
+npm run test:e2e
+
+# Run with Playwright UI (interactive)
+npm run test:e2e:ui
+
+# Run in headed browser (visible)
+npm run test:e2e:headed
+```
+
+## Test infrastructure
+
+### Mock bridge (`src/lib/test/wails-mock.js`)
+
+Replaces `window['go']['api']['App']` with in-memory mock implementations of
+all Wails backend methods. Provides:
+
+- Mutable plugin state (enable/disable/status)
+- Mutable vault state
+- Mutable contributions (views, commands, sidebar items, settings panels)
+- Test helpers via `window.__wailsMock`:
+  - `reset()` — reset all state to defaults
+  - `setPluginStatus(id, status, enabled)` — change plugin state
+  - `getPluginState(id)` — read current state
+  - `setVaultStatus(status)` — change vault state
+
+### Test harness (`index.html`)
+
+The same `index.html` is used for both production and test. It detects whether
+the Wails runtime (`window['go']`) is present. If not (i.e. running in a plain
+browser), it loads the mock bridge before the Svelte app.
+
+### Playwright config (`playwright.config.js`)
+
+- Dev server: `vite --mode test --port 5174`
+- Browser: Chromium headless
+- Timeouts: 30s test, 10s expect
+- Workers: 1 (sequential)
+- Screenshots: on failure
+- Traces: on first retry
+- Results: `e2e-results/test-results.json`
+
+## Adding new tests
+
+1. Create `e2e/your-test.spec.js`
+2. Import helpers from `./helpers.js`
+3. Use `test.beforeEach` to reset mock state and navigate to `/`
+4. Use `test.afterEach` to assert no console errors
+5. Write scenarios as user actions + assertions
+6. Run with `npm run test:e2e`
+
+### Selector conventions
+
+- Plugin cards: `.plugin-card` filtered by text
+- Buttons: `.btn-disable`, `.btn-enable`, `.btn-settings`, `.reload-btn`
+- Sidebar items: `.sidebar .plugin-item`
+- View container: `.view-container`
+- View header: `.view-header h2`
+- Status badges: `.status-badge`
+- Toast: `.toast`

+# Milestone 6a Files Core Service Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use
+> `superpowers:subagent-driven-development` or `superpowers:executing-plans` to
+> implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for
+> tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Add a safe backend Files core service and plugin bridge for
+vault-relative text file operations.
+
+**Architecture:** Files Core is a backend service under `internal/core/files`
+that accepts vault-relative paths, enforces reserved path policy, and performs
+atomic text writes. The Wails API exposes plugin-scoped methods guarded by plugin
+state and `files.*` permissions; SDK types describe the bridge shape.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Go backend services/tests, Wails-bound API methods, TypeScript
+SDK type definitions, existing Playwright/Vitest checks.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Status
+
+Milestone 6a is implemented.
+
+Actual backend package:
+
+- `internal/core/files/types.go`
+- `internal/core/files/path_policy.go`
+- `internal/core/files/service.go`
+- `internal/core/files/*_test.go`
+
+Actual plugin-scoped Wails methods:
+
+```go
+func (a *App) ListVaultFiles(pluginID string, relativeDir string) ([]files.FileEntry, string)
+func (a *App) GetVaultFileMetadata(pluginID string, relativePath string) (files.FileMetadata, string)
+func (a *App) ReadVaultTextFile(pluginID string, relativePath string) (string, string)
+func (a *App) WriteVaultTextFile(pluginID string, relativePath string, content string, options files.WriteOptions) string
+func (a *App) CreateVaultFolder(pluginID string, relativePath string) string
+func (a *App) MoveVaultPath(pluginID string, fromRelativePath string, toRelativePath string, options files.MoveOptions) string
+func (a *App) TrashVaultPath(pluginID string, relativePath string) (files.TrashResult, string)
+```
+
+Actual bundled frontend API:
+
+- `api.files.list(relativeDir)`
+- `api.files.metadata(relativePath)`
+- `api.files.readText(relativePath)`
+- `api.files.writeText(relativePath, content, options)`
+- `api.files.createFolder(relativePath)`
+- `api.files.move(fromRelativePath, toRelativePath, options)`
+- `api.files.trash(relativePath)`
+
+Implemented limits:
+
+- canonical vault-relative slash paths only;
+- backslashes, POSIX absolute paths, Windows drive paths, UNC paths, traversal,
+  null bytes, and empty file paths are rejected;
+- `.verstak/` is reserved case-insensitively and hidden from public Files API;
+- metadata may report symlinks, but list-through-symlink and
+  read/write/move/trash through symlink are forbidden;
+- text read/write only, with `readText` limited to UTF-8 files up to 2 MB;
+- trash uses `.verstak/trash/files/<trashId>/...` with restore metadata, but
+  restore itself is deferred;
+- binary streaming, watcher, external editor, Files UI, Notes service, sidecar,
+  sandbox/security isolation deferred.
+
+---
+
+## Scope
+
+Implement:
+
+- Backend Files service.
+- Safe vault-relative path handling.
+- Reserved `.verstak/` policy.
+- List files.
+- Read/write text files.
+- Create folder.
+- Move path.
+- Trash path.
+- Atomic writes.
+- Backend tests.
+- SDK bridge shape draft.
+
+Do not implement:
+
+- Full Notes plugin.
+- Notes UI.
+- Sync.
+- Watcher.
+- Binary streaming.
+- External editor integration.
+- Sidecar/security isolation.
+
+## Canonical Policy
+
+All public Files API methods use canonical vault-relative slash paths.
+
+Rejected inputs:
+
+- absolute paths;
+- backslashes;
+- Windows drive paths and UNC/network paths;
+- paths containing `..` after normalization;
+- null bytes;
+- empty paths where a file path is required;
+- access to `.verstak/` through the public plugin Files API, including
+  `.Verstak` case variants.
+
+Delete behavior:
+
+- `TrashVaultPath` moves files/folders into `.verstak/trash`.
+- Trash metadata includes `originalPath`, `deletedAt`, `originalType`,
+  `trashId`, and `basename`.
+- Permanent delete is out of scope.
+- Restore is out of scope.
+
+Write behavior:
+
+- Text writes use a temporary file in the target directory and rename into place.
+- Existing files are overwritten only when the method explicitly allows overwrite.
+- Parent directory must exist unless the method explicitly creates it.
+
+Binary behavior:
+
+- Binary files can appear in list/metadata results.
+- Binary read/write streaming is out of scope.
+
+## Public Backend Shape
+
+Implemented plugin-scoped Wails methods:
+
+```go
+func (a *App) ListVaultFiles(pluginID string, relativeDir string) ([]files.FileEntry, string)
+func (a *App) GetVaultFileMetadata(pluginID string, relativePath string) (files.FileMetadata, string)
+func (a *App) ReadVaultTextFile(pluginID string, relativePath string) (string, string)
+func (a *App) WriteVaultTextFile(pluginID string, relativePath string, content string, options files.WriteOptions) string
+func (a *App) CreateVaultFolder(pluginID string, relativePath string) string
+func (a *App) MoveVaultPath(pluginID string, fromRelativePath string, toRelativePath string, options files.MoveOptions) string
+func (a *App) TrashVaultPath(pluginID string, relativePath string) (files.TrashResult, string)
+```
+
+Permission mapping:
+
+- `ListVaultFiles`, `GetVaultFileMetadata`, `ReadVaultTextFile`: `files.read`.
+- `WriteVaultTextFile`, `CreateVaultFolder`, `MoveVaultPath`: `files.write`.
+- `TrashVaultPath`: `files.delete`.
+
+## Data Types
+
+Create `internal/core/files/types.go`:
+
+```go
+package files
+
+type EntryKind string
+
+const (
+	KindFile      EntryKind = "file"
+	KindDirectory EntryKind = "directory"
+)
+
+type Entry struct {
+	Name         string    `json:"name"`
+	Path         string    `json:"path"`
+	Kind         EntryKind `json:"kind"`
+	Size         int64     `json:"size"`
+	ModifiedAt   string    `json:"modifiedAt"`
+	IsText       bool      `json:"isText"`
+	IsBinary     bool      `json:"isBinary"`
+	IsHidden     bool      `json:"isHidden"`

+# Milestone 6b - Open/Edit Provider Registry + Workbench Routing Skeleton
+
+This milestone adds the minimal infrastructure layer for open/edit routing before
+Files UI, Notes UI, or editor implementation starts. It does not implement those
+plugins and does not add a concrete core-owned Markdown editor.
+
+## Existing Architecture Found
+
+| Path | Section/title | Summary |
+|---|---|---|
+| `../verstak-docs/00_README.md` | Main architecture invariant | Core does not know concrete notes, file manager, or markdown editor features. It owns vault, plugin runtime, capability registry, contribution points, permissions, settings, events, storage, and UI shell. |
+| `../verstak-docs/01_Product_Vision.md` | What is not in core / platform goal | Markdown editor, file manager, preview, and notes workflow are plugins. Users should be able to replace the markdown editor or install multiple editors. |
+| `../verstak-docs/02_Platform_Architecture.md` | UI Shell / Capability Registry | UI Shell knows contribution points, not concrete note editor or file preview implementations. Files plugin checks editor/viewer capabilities instead of depending on `official.markdown-editor`. |
+| `../verstak-docs/03_Repositories.md` | Repository split | `verstak-desktop` is Core Platform + UI Shell and does not contain mandatory notes, file manager, or markdown editor modules. Official plugins live separately. |
+| `../verstak-docs/04_Plugin_System.md` | Goal / capabilities instead of plugin names / contribution points | Notes, file manager, editor, and viewer are plugin functions. The docs explicitly reject `requires: ["official.markdown-editor"]` and prefer `optionalRequires: ["editor.text.markdown"]`. |
+| `../verstak-docs/05_Official_Plugins.md` | official.files / official.notes / official.markdown-editor | Files optionally depends on editor/viewer capabilities. Markdown editor provides `editor.text`, `editor.text.markdown`, and `editor.note.markdown`, and must not own note storage or depend directly on `official.notes`. |
+| `../verstak-docs/06_Migration_Strategy.md` | Do not / Definition of Done | Do not make notes/files/editor mandatory core parts. The platform transition is done only when notes/files/editor/preview/activity work as plugins. |
+| `docs/NOTES_FILES_PLUGIN_PLAN.md` | Canonical Notes Model | Notes are ordinary Markdown files in canonical `Notes/` folders. No lowercase `notes`, no `.verstak/notes`, no plugin-data note content, no UUID-only filenames. |
+| `docs/NOTES_FILES_PLUGIN_PLAN.md` | Files Service Model | Files Core is raw vault file access and does not understand note semantics. Milestone 6a exposes safe text file methods and defers UI, watcher, binary streaming, external editor, and restore. |
+| `docs/PLUGIN_RUNTIME.md` | Contribution Points / Bundled Frontend Plugin API | Current runtime hosts views/sidebar/settings/commands and exposes plugin-scoped Files API. `fileActions`, `noteActions`, `contextMenuEntries`, search/activity/status bar entries are registered but not hosted. |
+| `internal/core/contribution/registry.go` | Contribution registry | Registry has the established contribution points and now extends that model with `openProviders`. |
+| `internal/core/plugin/plugin.go` | Manifest contributions | Plugin manifest types now include `openProviders` alongside existing contribution points. |
+| `frontend/src/lib/shell/WorkbenchHost.svelte` and `frontend/src/lib/plugin-host/PluginBundleHost.svelte` | Frontend plugin host | Workbench mounts the selected provider component by plugin id and component id. It remains generic and does not know a concrete editor. |
+| `frontend/src/lib/plugin-host/VerstakPluginAPI.js` | Plugin API | Bundled plugins can call `api.workbench.openResource()` and `api.workbench.editResource()` in addition to settings, capabilities, events, commands, and Files API. |
+| `../verstak-sdk/src/types.ts` and `../verstak-sdk/schemas/manifest.json` | SDK contribution contracts | SDK types/schema define `openProviders`, `OpenResourceRequest`, provider supports, and `files.*` permissions. |
+
+## What Matches The Desired Model
+
+- Files/Notes/Editor are already documented as plugins, not core modules.
+- Official plugins are expected to use the same runtime as community plugins.
+- Files plugin is already documented as capability-driven, not hard-wired to a markdown editor.
+- Markdown editor is already documented as replaceable via capabilities.
+- Notes are already documented as Markdown files under canonical `Notes/` folders, without `.verstak/notes`, UUID note entities, or a second storage truth.
+- Desktop code has no hardcoded Markdown editor component.
+- Existing plugin host can mount arbitrary plugin components, which is enough foundation for an editor provider host.
+
+## Contradictions Found
+
+- `docs/NOTES_FILES_PLUGIN_PLAN.md` still said Files Core API/capability/permissions were unavailable, while later sections and code show Milestone 6a implemented them.
+- `../verstak-docs/05_Official_Plugins.md` calls notes "first-class Verstak entities". That is acceptable only as UI semantics; implementation must not create a separate note storage entity.
+- `../verstak-docs/05_Official_Plugins.md` lists "Open externally" as a Files fallback. External open remains deferred and must not enter Milestone 6b.
+- `../verstak-sdk/schemas/manifest.json` previously did not include `files.read`, `files.write`, or `files.delete` in the permissions enum, while SDK TS types, desktop permissions, and official `platform-test` manifest already used them. Milestone 6b resolves this 6a contract cleanup item.
+
+## Missing Before 6b
+
+- `openProviders` contribution point.
+- `OpenResourceRequest` contract.
+- Workbench open/edit routing API for Files/Notes plugins.
+- Provider selection model using resource kind, extension/mime, notes context, user preference, provider priority, deterministic fallback, and disabled provider fallback.
+- User preferences for default text editor provider, default markdown editor provider, and default notes-context markdown editor provider.
+- Host slot/tab that mounts the selected provider component with an open resource request.
+- Tests for provider registration, selection, preferences, disabled provider fallback, and notes-context routing.
+
+## Added In 6b
+
+- `contributes.openProviders` in SDK schema/types and desktop manifest structs.
+- Desktop contribution registry support for registering, replacing, listing, and
+  unregistering open providers.
+- `OpenResourceRequest`, `OpenResourceContext`, `OpenResourceResult`, and
+  opened-resource state in the Workbench routing skeleton.
+- Provider selection by resource kind, extension/mime, `generic-text`,
+  `generic-markdown`, or `notes-markdown` context, user preference, priority,
+  deterministic `pluginId/providerId` fallback, and active plugin filtering.
+- `workbench.open` policy permission for plugins that request Workbench routing.
+- Draft app settings preferences for default text, markdown, and notes-context
+  markdown providers.
+- `api.workbench.openResource()` and `api.workbench.editResource()` exposed to
+  frontend plugin bundles.
+- Minimal Workbench host that mounts the selected provider component from the
+  selected provider plugin.
+- `no-provider` fallback state when no matching provider exists.
+- `platform-test` diagnostic open provider used only to prove routing.
+
+## Decision
+
+Open/edit provider should be an extension of the existing contribution registry,
+not a parallel system. It should add `openProviders` beside `views`, `commands`,
+`fileActions`, and `noteActions`.
+
+Capabilities remain useful for broad availability and degraded mode, but they are
+too coarse for choosing between multiple providers. Provider selection needs a
+declarative provider contribution with `supports`, priority, and component id.
+
+## Correct Notes Model
+
+- Notes are a contextual view over ordinary Markdown files under canonical
+  `Notes/` folders.
+- `.md` inside `Notes/` opens through the selected markdown editor with
+  notes-context.
+- `.md` outside `Notes/` opens through the selected markdown editor in generic
+  markdown mode.
+- Plain text opens through the selected text editor provider in `generic-text`
+  context.
+- Files and Notes call open/edit resource; neither embeds a concrete editor.
+- Editor provider selection belongs to Workbench/provider registry.
+- No `.verstak/notes`, no UUID note entities, no second truth separate from the
+  `.md` file.
+
+## Minimal Infrastructure Changes
+
+1. Add `openProviders` to SDK manifest/schema/types.
+2. Add `openProviders` to desktop plugin manifest structs and contribution
+   registry.
+3. Add `OpenResourceRequest` and provider support match types.
+4. Add Workbench/provider selection service with deterministic rules.
+5. Add user preferences for `defaultTextEditorProvider`,
+   `defaultMarkdownEditorProvider`, and `defaultNotesMarkdownEditorProvider`.
+6. Add frontend host plumbing so Workbench can mount the selected plugin
+   component.
+7. Fix `verstak-sdk/schemas/manifest.json` permissions enum for `files.*`.
+
+## Proposed Milestone 6b Scope
+
+In scope:
+
+- Contribution/types/schema support for `openProviders`.
+- Workbench `openResource`/`editResource` routing API.
+- Provider selection with notes context and user preferences.
+- Minimal host tab/slot for provider component mounting.
+- Diagnostic provider plugin contribution sufficient to prove routing.
+- Tests for routing, provider selection, disabled fallback, and notes-context
+  markdown.
+
+Out of scope:
+
+- Full Files UI feature set.
+- Full Notes UI feature set.
+- Full editor implementation.
+- Real default editor plugin (Milestone 6c).
+- Files plugin open/edit integration.
+- Notes plugin open/edit integration.
+- Hardcoded core Markdown editor.
+- Watcher/sync/binary streaming/external editor.
+- Sidecar/security boundary.
+- Large rewrite.
+
+## 6b-fix: Infrastructure Gaps Closed
+
+Post-review fixes before Milestone 6c:
+
+- Added `openProviders` to `verstak-sdk/schemas/contributions.json` contribution points.
+- Added provider matching tests: text/markdown preference, MIME matching, extension
+  case-insensitivity, multiple supports entries, kind mismatch.
+- Added disabled provider exclusion test in `api/app_test.go`.
+- Fixed SDK `build.sh`/`test.sh` to detect incomplete `node_modules`.
+- Documented disabled provider lifecycle: contributions remain in registry until
+  ReloadPlugins; `activeOpenProviders()` filters disabled/unloaded at request time.
+- Installed Playwright browsers for E2E tests.

+# Milestone 6c — Default Editor Plugin
+
+## Goal
+
+Create the official Default Editor Plugin as an openProvider for text, generic
+markdown, and notes-context markdown files. Core desktop does not own or import
+the editor component.
+
+## What was built
+
+### Plugin: `verstak.default-editor`
+
+Location: `verstak-official-plugins/plugins/default-editor/`
+
+**Manifest declares 3 openProviders:**
+
+| Provider ID | Context | Extensions |
+|-------------|---------|------------|
+| `verstak.default-editor.text` | `generic-text` | `.txt`, `.log`, `.conf`, `.ini`, `.toml`, `.yaml`, `.yml`, `.json`, `.csv` |
+| `verstak.default-editor.markdown` | `generic-markdown` | `.md`, `.markdown` |
+| `verstak.default-editor.notes-markdown` | `notes-markdown` | `.md`, `.markdown` |
+
+All providers use the same `DefaultEditor` component (unified, not 3 separate editors).
+
+**Permissions:** `files.read`, `files.write`, `workbench.open`
+
+**Capabilities required:** `verstak/core/files/v1`, `verstak/core/workbench/v1`
+
+### Frontend component: `DefaultEditor`
+
+- **Modes:** text (textarea), generic-markdown (editor + preview), notes-markdown (editor + preview + notes badge)
+- **File loading:** `api.files.readText(path)` with loading/error states
+- **Saving:** `api.files.writeText(path, content, { overwrite: true })` with dirty/saved/error states
+- **Keyboard:** Ctrl+S / Cmd+S save, Tab indentation
+- **Markdown preview:** Simple renderer (no raw HTML, no script injection)
+- **Notes context:** Badge + info bar, no separate note entity, no `.verstak/notes`
+
+## Verification
+
+- `go test ./...` — PASS
+- `go vet ./...` — PASS
+- `npm run build` (frontend) — PASS
+- `npm run test:e2e` — 28/28 PASS (20 existing + 8 new)
+- `scripts/check.sh` (official-plugins) — PASS
+- `scripts/build.sh` (official-plugins) — PASS
+- SDK checks — PASS
+
+## Manual testing
+
+Until Files UI plugin exists, use platform-test diagnostics panel to manually
+open files via workbench: click "Open Text Diagnostic", "Open Markdown Diagnostic",
+or "Open Notes Diagnostic" buttons. These call `api.workbench.editResource` and
+route through the default-editor provider.
+
+## Deferred
+
+- CodeMirror/Monaco editor
+- Backlinks, internal link navigation
+- Secret widgets
+- Image asset pipeline
+- Files UI plugin
+- Notes UI plugin
+- Watcher/sync
+- External open
+- Sidecar/security isolation

+# Milestone 6d — Minimal Files Plugin
+
+## Goal
+
+Create a minimal Files plugin that shows vault files/folders and opens files
+through Workbench openResource. No editor embedded.
+
+## What was built
+
+### Plugin: `verstak.files`
+
+Location: `verstak-official-plugins/plugins/files/`
+
+**Contributions:**
+- views: `verstak.files.view` → `FilesView` component
+- No sidebarItems — Files is not a global sidebar item
+
+**Permissions:** `files.read`, `files.write`, `workbench.open`, `ui.register`
+
+### Files View
+
+- Root listing on mount
+- Folder navigation (double-click)
+- File open via `api.workbench.openResource()`
+- Breadcrumb navigation
+- Create folder/file buttons
+- Refresh button
+- Loading/error/empty states
+- `.verstak` filtered out
+
+### Provider priority
+
+- default-editor: priority 50
+- platform-test diagnostic: priority 10
+- default-editor wins for normal file opens
+
+### Bundle fix
+
+Fixed missing opening quote in STYLES string (`.files-empty` → `'.files-empty'`).
+Added automated bundle execution check to `scripts/check.sh`.
+
+## 6d-hotfix
+
+- Removed sidebarItems from Files plugin (Files is not a global sidebar item)
+- Added `[frontend bundle execution]` check to `check.sh` — verifies all plugin
+  bundles parse via `new Function()` and register via `VerstakPluginRegister`
+- Updated E2E tests: Files no longer expected in global sidebar
+- Documented: sidebarItems are global shell navigation, not workspace template tabs
+
+## Verification
+
+- `go test ./...` — PASS
+- `go vet ./...` — PASS
+- `npm run build` — PASS
+- `npm run test:e2e` — 34/34 PASS
+- Official plugins — 3 plugins built, bundle execution check passes
+- SDK — 11/11 tests pass
+
+## Deferred
+
+- Notes plugin, rename/move/trash UI, drag-and-drop, context menu,
+  watcher/inotify, sync, external open, binary streaming, sidecar/security,
+  workspace template host (Milestone 6d2)
+

+# Notes/Files Plugin Architecture Plan
+
+This document locks the Notes/Files/Open architecture for the next milestones.
+Files Core Service was implemented in Milestone 6a; this document still does not
+start Notes UI, Notes plugin, Files UI plugin, editor plugin, watcher, sync, or
+binary streaming.
+
+## Current Readiness
+
+The platform is ready for bundled plugin UI experiments. Files Core is available
+as a safe vault-scoped text file API. Notes, Files UI, and editor/viewer UI still
+need plugin-level implementations and host surfaces before real product use.
+
+Already available:
+
+- Plugin discovery, lifecycle, settings, capabilities, bundled commands, and
+  bundled frontend events.
+- Workspace lifecycle APIs for top-level physical folders under the vault root.
+- Plugin-owned internal storage directories:
+  `.verstak/plugin-data/<pluginId>`, `.verstak/plugin-settings/<pluginId>`, and
+  `.verstak/plugin-cache/<pluginId>`.
+- Contribution registry entries for `fileActions`, `noteActions`,
+  `contextMenuEntries`, `searchProviders`, `activityProviders`, and
+  `statusBarItems`.
+
+Not available yet:
+
+- Notes plugin/API as a semantic view over Markdown files.
+- Files UI plugin.
+- Editor/viewer plugin.
+- Open/edit resource routing and provider selection.
+- UI hosts for file actions, note actions, context menus, search providers,
+  activity providers, or status bar items.
+- Watcher/indexer for external filesystem changes.
+- Real plugin isolation. Current permission checks are contract/policy checks,
+  not a security boundary for bundled frontend JavaScript.
+
+## Canonical Notes Model

+Notes are ordinary human-readable Markdown files inside the vault. They must be
+visible and editable outside Verstak.
+
+Canonical rules:
+
+- Notes are `.md` files, not opaque records.
+- Canonical folder name is exactly `Notes`.
+- Do not create lowercase `notes`.
+- Do not store user notes in `.verstak/notes/`.
+- Do not store user notes in `.verstak/plugin-data/verstak.notes/`.
+- Do not use UUID-only filenames for notes.
+- The note title is the source of truth.
+- The filename is a normalized projection from the title.
+- `RenameNote` must update both the title and the `.md` filename.
+
+Canonical scoped paths:
+
+- Notes live under `<workspace>/Notes/`.
+- `Overview.md` is allowed as an ordinary Markdown filename, but the platform
+  must not create it automatically or treat it as a dedicated UI entity.
+- `<workspace>` is the top-level physical folder name under the vault root.
+- Files plugin workspace views are scoped with `workspaceRootPath`, which is the
+  selected top-level workspace folder name.
+
+Visibility requirements:
+
+- Notes UI must show notes as semantic notes.
+- Files UI must show the same `.md` files as ordinary files.
+- External file managers must show the same `.md` files.
+- Outside Verstak, the files must remain useful as normal Markdown.
+
+There is no canonical metadata workspace tree. Adding `note` as a workspace node
+type is not part of the next milestone. The official Notes plugin can index and
+manage Markdown files inside canonical `Notes/` folders under each top-level
+workspace.
+
+## Title To Filename Contract
+
+The title is the source of truth. The filename is derived from the title when a
+note is created or renamed.
+
+Normalization rules:
+
+- Replace spaces with `_`.
+- Replace typographic dashes with `-`.
+- Allow only letters, digits, `.`, `_`, and `-`.
+- Append `.md` if the normalized name does not already end with `.md`.
+- Reject empty normalized names.
+- Preserve canonical `Notes` folder casing.
+
+Examples:
+
+| Title | Filename |
+|---|---|
+| `Overview` | `Overview.md` |
+| `Meeting Notes` | `Meeting_Notes.md` |
+| `Plan — Phase 1` | `Plan_-_Phase_1.md` |
+| `A/B Test: Result` | `AB_Test_Result.md` |
+
+## Collision Policy
+
+Same-folder collisions must not be solved silently with `_2`, `_3`, or timestamp
+suffixes.
+
+Creating or renaming a note must return a conflict error if the normalized target
+filename already exists in the target `Notes/` folder. The UI should show a clear
+dialog or notification and ask the user to change the title.
+
+Required conflict metadata:
+
+- requested title;
+- normalized filename;
+- target vault-relative path;
+- existing vault-relative path.
+
+## Files Service Model
+
+Files service is the raw vault file layer. It works with vault-relative paths and
+does not understand note semantics.
+
+Rules:
+
+- All public Files API paths are canonical vault-relative slash paths.
+- Backslashes are rejected instead of normalized.
+- Absolute POSIX paths, Windows drive paths, and UNC/network paths are rejected.
+- `..` traversal is rejected.
+- Null bytes are rejected.
+- `.verstak/` is reserved case-insensitively and hidden/forbidden by default.
+- Access to `.verstak/` is allowed only through internal APIs, not through the
+  normal plugin Files API.
+- Symlink read/write/move/trash operations are forbidden in Milestone 6a.
+  Metadata may report a final symlink as `type: "symlink"`.
+- Writes must be atomic: write a temp file in the same directory, close it, then
+  rename.
+- Delete must follow the trash policy until permanent delete is explicitly
+  designed.
+- Trash metadata records `originalPath`, `deletedAt`, `originalType`, `trashId`,
+  and `basename` for future restore work. Restore is deferred.
+- Binary files are deferred for write/streaming APIs. Milestone 6a lists binary
+  metadata but read/write is UTF-8 text only with a 2 MB read limit.
+
+Minimum Files methods:
+
+- `ListVaultFiles(relativeDir)`.
+- `GetVaultFileMetadata(relativePath)`.
+- `ReadVaultTextFile(relativePath)`.
+- `WriteVaultTextFile(relativePath, content, options)`.
+- `CreateVaultFolder(relativePath)`.
+- `MoveVaultPath(fromRelativePath, toRelativePath)`.
+- `TrashVaultPath(relativePath)`.
+
+Milestone 6a status: implemented in `internal/core/files` and exposed to bundled
+plugins as `api.files.list`, `api.files.metadata`, `api.files.readText`,
+`api.files.writeText`, `api.files.createFolder`, `api.files.move`, and
+`api.files.trash`. It is still text-only for reads/writes and has no watcher,
+binary streaming, external editor integration, or Files UI plugin.
+
+Later Files methods:
+
+- `WatchVaultFiles(scope)` once watcher/event delivery is ready.
+- `ReadVaultFileBytes` / `WriteVaultFileBytes` for binary files.
+- `OpenExternal(relativePath)` with explicit permission and UX confirmation.
+- `RevealInFileManager(relativePath)`.
+
+## Official Notes Plugin Model
+
+The official Notes plugin is a semantic layer over Markdown files managed through
+the public Files plugin API. There is no core desktop Notes service or
+`verstak/core/notes/v1` capability in v2.
+
+Rules:
+
+- A note physically is a `.md` file.
+- Notes plugin and Files API must not create two sources of truth.
+- Notes plugin reads/writes the same files that Files API lists.
+- The note title is the semantic source of truth and is projected to the filename.
+  If frontmatter or a first-heading convention is introduced later, `RenameNote`
+  must keep that visible title metadata and the filename synchronized.
+- Other note metadata should be derived from the file path and filesystem
+  metadata, or from Markdown frontmatter if a future milestone introduces it.
+- If a note is changed through Files API or an external editor, the future
+  watcher/indexer must observe it.
+- Until watcher/indexer exists, external changes require reload/rescan.
+
+Minimum Notes plugin behavior:
+
+- list Markdown files in a scoped canonical `Notes/` folder;
+- create a Markdown note by writing the normalized filename atomically with
+  `overwrite: false`;
+- rename a note by moving the file to the normalized filename;
+- open and edit notes through Workbench providers;
+- never special-case `Overview.md` in the UI.
+
+Later Notes plugin behavior:
+
+- search notes;
+- list backlinks;
+- resolve note links;
+- export notes.
+
+## Notes Vs Files Relationship
+
+Files owns safe raw vault file access. Notes owns note semantics.
+
+The same physical note must be visible through both surfaces:
+
+- Files sees `Project/Notes/Overview.md` as a file.
+- Notes sees `Project/Notes/Overview.md` as a note with title `Overview`.
+
+There must be no duplicate note content stored in plugin settings, plugin data,
+or a separate `.verstak` note database. Indexes and caches may exist later, but
+they must be rebuildable from the canonical Markdown files.
+
+## Capabilities And Permissions
+
+Existing permissions that remain useful:
+
+- `vault.read` for existing vault-level read policy.
+- `vault.write` for existing vault-level write policy.
+- `vault.watch` for future watcher support.
+- `ui.register` for sidebar/views/settings contributions.
+- `commands.register` for bundled command handlers.
+- `events.publish` and `events.subscribe` for frontend/backend event flows.
+
+New permissions required before real Notes/Files plugins ship:
+
+- `files.read`
+- `files.write`
+- `files.delete`
+- `workbench.open`
+
+Future Notes semantic permissions are deferred until a real Notes plugin/API
+ships:
+
+- `notes.read`
+- `notes.write`
+- `notes.delete`
+
+Those permissions are still policy checks until sidecar/sandbox work provides a
+real isolation boundary.
+
+Recommended capabilities:
+
+- `verstak/core/files/v1`
+- `verstak/files/v1` provided by the official Files plugin.
+- `verstak/notes/v1` provided by the official Notes plugin.
+
+## Frontend Components And Extension Points
+
+Contribution points already registered but not fully hosted:
+
+- `fileActions`
+- `noteActions`
+- `contextMenuEntries`
+- `searchProviders`
+- `activityProviders`
+- `statusBarItems`
+
+UI work needed:
+
+- Files view host with tree/list modes and selection state.
+- Notes view host with note list, open/edit entry points, and preview/details
+  region.
+- Context menu host that merges core actions with plugin contributions.
+- Command palette host for contributed commands.
+- Search provider host with cancellation/debounce and result ownership.
+- Status bar host for lightweight plugin state.
+- Selection/event model for active file, active note, and active workspace node.
+
+The first implementation should host only the contribution points needed by the
+official Notes and Files plugins.
+
+## Open/Edit Resource Model
+
+Files and Notes must not embed a concrete editor or viewer. They request that the
+Workbench open or edit a resource. The Workbench/provider registry selects the
+plugin component.
+
+Required model:
+
+- Files plugin lists files and calls open/edit for a vault file.
+- Notes plugin presents Markdown files under canonical `Notes/` folders and calls
+  open/edit for the same vault file with notes context.
+- `.md` or `.markdown` inside a canonical `Notes/` folder opens in markdown mode
+  with notes context.
+- `.md` or `.markdown` outside `Notes/` opens in generic markdown mode.
+- Plain text opens in `generic-text` mode.
+- The same editor provider may support text, generic markdown, and notes-context
+  markdown.
+- User preferences can select another provider for text, markdown, and
+  notes-context markdown.
+- Community editor plugins can replace the default editor through the same
+  provider registry.
+- Core desktop owns registry, routing, Workbench host slot/tab, and preferences.
+- Core desktop does not own concrete Files UI, Notes UI, Markdown editor, or file
+  preview UI.
+
+Minimal contribution extension:
+
+```json
+{
+  "contributes": {
+    "openProviders": [
+      {
+        "id": "verstak.platform-test.markdown-diagnostic",
+        "title": "Platform Test Markdown Diagnostic",
+        "priority": 100,
+        "component": "MarkdownDiagnosticProvider",
+        "supports": [
+          {
+            "kind": "vault-file",
+            "extensions": [".md", ".markdown"],
+            "contexts": ["generic-markdown", "notes-markdown"]
+          },
+          {
+            "kind": "vault-file",
+            "mime": ["text/plain"],
+            "extensions": [".txt", ".log", ".json", ".yaml", ".yml", ".toml", ".ini", ".conf"],
+            "contexts": ["generic-text"]
+          }
+        ]
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Open request shape:
+
+```ts
+type OpenResourceRequest = {
+  kind: "vault-file";
+  path: string;
+  mode?: "view" | "edit";
+  mime?: string;
+  extension?: string;
+  context?: {
+    sourcePluginId?: string;
+    sourceView?: "files" | "notes" | string;
+    isInsideNotesFolder?: boolean;
+    notesScopePath?: string;
+    notesMode?: boolean;
+  };
+};
+```
+
+Provider selection rules:
+
+1. Match resource kind.
+2. Match extension and/or mime.
+3. Prefer providers that explicitly support the request context.
+4. Apply user preference for text, markdown, or notes-context markdown when the
+   preferred provider is enabled and still supports the resource.
+5. Otherwise choose highest priority.
+6. Break ties deterministically by plugin id, then provider id.
+7. If no provider matches, return a Workbench `no-provider` state rather than
+   hardcoding a core editor.
+8. If a preferred provider plugin is disabled or unavailable, fall back to the
+   deterministic default and surface a non-blocking preference warning later.
+
+Initial preferences:
+
+- `defaultTextEditorProvider`;
+- `defaultMarkdownEditorProvider`;
+- `defaultNotesMarkdownEditorProvider`.
+
+Per-extension overrides are deferred.
+
+## Migration Risks
+
+- Adding `note` as a workspace node type is a workspace schema migration and is
+  explicitly out of scope for the next milestone.
+- The canonical path rules must be locked before writing real files into user
+  vaults.
+- Rename behavior can break external links if link rewriting is not designed.
+- Case/folder path ownership must be clear before scoped `Notes/` folders are
+  created.
+- Raw Files API can expose `.verstak` internals unless reserved paths are blocked.
+- File writes need atomic behavior and conflict handling before sync.
+- Large/binary files require streaming or byte APIs; text APIs are not enough.
+- External editor changes require reload/rescan until watcher/indexer exists.
+- Bundled frontend plugins are trusted/cooperative and not isolated from the
+  shared JS context.
+
+## Test Plan
+
+Backend Go tests:
+
+- Vault-relative path normalization and traversal rejection.
+- Reserved `.verstak` path behavior.
+- Files list/read/write/mkdir/move/trash with vault closed/open states.
+- Atomic text writes and temp-file cleanup on failure.
+- Notes `Notes/` folder casing and no lowercase `notes`.
+- Title to filename normalization.
+- note create/rename conflict errors without silent suffixes.
+- Notes and Files read the same physical `.md` file.
+- Permission checks for `files.*`, `notes.*`, `vault.read`, and `vault.write`.
+
+Frontend/unit tests:
+
+- SDK and plugin API shape for Files and Notes draft methods.
+- Readable errors for missing permissions, closed vault, missing file, missing
+  note, reserved path, and collision.
+- Contribution host rendering for note/file actions and context menus.
+
+Playwright e2e tests:
+
+- Create a text file, reload, and verify it is visible in Files.
+- Create a note, reload, and verify it is visible in both Notes and Files.
+- Rename a note and verify title plus filename change together.
+- Attempt same-folder collision and verify user-facing conflict handling.
+- External file change requires reload/rescan until watcher exists.
+
+## Implementation Order
+
+1. Define canonical vault-relative path rules and reserved path policy.
+2. Implement Files core service with safe list/read/write/mkdir/move/trash.
+3. Define open/edit resource request, provider contribution shape, and provider
+   selection rules.
+4. Extend contribution registry/types with `openProviders`.
+5. Add Workbench open/edit routing and a provider-hosted tab/slot.
+6. Add preferences for text, markdown, and notes-context markdown provider ids.
+7. Use `platform-test` diagnostic provider to verify routing; real default
+   editor plugin is deferred to Milestone 6c.
+8. Build official Files plugin that calls open/edit resource.
+9. Build official Notes plugin as a contextual view over Markdown files in
+   canonical `Notes/` folders.
+10. Implement future Notes semantic helpers only as a facade over Markdown files,
+    never as a second source of truth.

 ### Discovery Directories
 
-Plugins ищутся в двух директориях (порядок приоритета):
+Plugins ищутся через единый resolver `internal/core/plugin.ResolveDiscoveryDirs`.
+Порядок приоритета:
 
 | Путь | Назначение | Коммитится |
 |---|---|---|
+| `VERSTAK_PLUGIN_DIR` | Override для тестов/dev; можно передать несколько путей через OS path separator | Нет |
+| `./plugins/` | Dev plugins относительно текущей рабочей директории/repo | Нет (`.gitignore`) |

 | `~/.config/verstak/plugins/` | User-installed plugins | Нет (user home) |
-| `./plugins/` | Bundled / dev plugins | Нет (`.gitignore`) |
+
+Resolver нормализует пути, удаляет дубликаты и передает discovery только канонический
+список директорий. Отсутствующие директории просто пропускаются на этапе scanning.
+
+Discovery сканирует **все** resolved директории в указанном порядке. Если один и тот
+же `plugin.id` найден несколько раз, применяется правило **first plugin wins**:
+первый найденный plugin загружается, последующие plugins с тем же id пропускаются.
+Конфликт логируется и возвращается как discovery warning с двумя путями: путь
+пропущенного duplicate и путь уже загруженного winner.

-foreach plugin:

-    1. зарегистрировать plugin.provides в capability registry
+2. Пока есть неразрешённые plugins:
-    2. проверить plugin.requires — если есть missing → missing-required-capability
+   - plugin с уже доступными `requires` атомарно регистрирует `provides`;
-    3. проверить plugin.optionalRequires — если есть missing → degraded
+   - при конфликте `provides` plugin получает `failed`;

+   - если за проход ничего не разрешилось, остальные получают
-    5. зарегистрировать plugin.contributes в contribution registry

+### Contribution lifecycle
+
+1. Plugin `Register(pluginID, contributions)` — все contributions регистрируются
+2. `Unregister(pluginID)` — удаляет все contributions указанного plugin
+3. Reload сначала удаляет contributions всех plugins предыдущего discovery, затем регистрирует только `loaded`/`degraded` plugins
+4. Disable plugin → `Unregister` (contributions исчезают из UI)
+5. Enable plugin → `Register` при следующем Reload
+6. Registry idempotent: Register удаляет старые записи перед добавлением новых
+
+## Bundled Frontend Plugin API
+
+Bundled frontend plugins получают API от host через `createPluginAPI(pluginId)`.
+Обычный plugin code не передает `pluginId` в методы API: scope закрепляется в
+host при mount компонента. Это защищает нормальный cooperative path от случайного
+доступа к чужому namespace.
+
+Текущая модель безопасности честно ограничена:
+
+- bundled frontend plugins исполняются в общем JS-контексте приложения;
+- проверки permissions/capabilities сейчас являются contract/policy checks, а не
+  полноценной security boundary;
+- malicious JS в общем контексте теоретически может обойти frontend wrapper;
+- настоящая изоляция будет только после отдельного sidecar/sandbox milestone.
+
+## Workbench Open/Edit Routing
+
+Files and Notes plugins do not import or embed a concrete editor plugin. They
+call `api.workbench.openResource(request)` or `api.workbench.editResource(request)`.
+The backend requires the source plugin to be enabled, loaded/degraded, and to
+declare `workbench.open`. This is a policy/contract check, not a security
+boundary.
+
+`OpenResourceRequest`:
+
+```ts
+type OpenResourceRequest = {
+  kind: "vault-file";
+  path: string;
+  mode?: "view" | "edit";
+  mime?: string;
+  extension?: string;
+  context?: {
+    sourcePluginId?: string;
+    sourceView?: "files" | "notes" | string;
+    isInsideNotesFolder?: boolean;
+    notesScopePath?: string;
+    notesMode?: boolean;
+  };
+};
+```
+
+Routing contexts are fixed as `generic-text`, `generic-markdown`, and
+`notes-markdown`. `.md`/`.markdown` inside canonical `Notes/` folders uses
+`notes-markdown`; markdown outside Notes uses `generic-markdown`; ordinary text
+uses `generic-text`. Milestone 6b derives context from request fields; future
+Files/Notes integrations can centralize canonical Notes folder auto-detection in
+the Workbench helper.
+
+`contributes.openProviders` extends the existing contribution registry:
+
+```json
+{
+  "contributes": {
+    "openProviders": [
+      {
+        "id": "verstak.platform-test.markdown-diagnostic",
+        "title": "Platform Test Markdown Diagnostic",
+        "priority": 100,

+
+Selection uses enabled loaded/degraded provider plugins, resource kind,
+request mode, extension/mime, context, user preference, priority, then deterministic
+`pluginId/providerId` fallback. If nothing matches, Workbench returns
+`status: "no-provider"` and shows the fallback view instead of a core editor.
+
+Disabled/failed/missing-required-capability plugins are excluded from provider
+selection at request time by `activeOpenProviders()`. Their contributions may
+remain in the registry until the next `ReloadPlugins()` cycle, but they never
+match during routing.
+
+Draft app-global preferences are `defaultTextEditorProvider`,
+`defaultMarkdownEditorProvider`, and `defaultNotesMarkdownEditorProvider`.
+Vault-scoped and per-extension overrides are deferred.
+
+### Default Editor Plugin
+
+The official `verstak.default-editor` plugin (`verstak-official-plugins/plugins/default-editor/`)
+provides openProviders for text, generic markdown, and notes-context markdown files.
+It uses `api.files.readText` / `api.files.writeText` for file I/O and mounts through
+the standard `PluginBundleHost` / provider host mechanism. Core does not import or
+reference this plugin directly.
+
+Provider plugins may have no sidebar item — openProviders are contribution points
+for workbench routing, not navigation. Plugin Manager displays openProviders in the
+contributions summary.
+
+### API methods
+
+`settings`
+
+- `settings.read()` — читает весь settings namespace текущего plugin.
+- `settings.read(key)` — читает один ключ.
+- `settings.write(key, value)` — обновляет один ключ и пишет namespace обратно.
+- `settings.writeAll(settings)` — заменяет settings namespace.
+- Backend требует plugin exists, enabled, status `loaded`/`degraded` и permission
+  `storage.namespace`.
+
+`capabilities`
+
+- `capabilities.list()` — возвращает текущий capability registry.
+- `capabilities.get(name)` — возвращает `{ available, name, pluginId, status }`.
+- `capabilities.has(name)` — boolean wrapper над `get`.
+- Backend требует, чтобы plugin был enabled/loaded и декларировал dependency на
+  `verstak/core/capability-registry/v1` в `requires` или `optionalRequires`.
+
+`commands`
+
+- `commands.register(commandId, handler)` — регистрирует bundled frontend handler.
+  Возвращает `Promise<unsubscribe>`.
+- `commands.execute(commandId, args)` — backend сначала проверяет plugin status,
+  permission `commands.register` и что command объявлен в `contributes.commands`
+  именно этим plugin. Затем frontend registry вызывает зарегистрированный handler.
+- `commands.executeFor(pluginId, commandId, args)` — то же выполнение, но для
+  command другого plugin-provider. Используется host surfaces вроде Files/Notes,
+  которые читают contribution action и вызывают объявленный provider handler.
+- Если command объявлен в manifest, но handler не зарегистрирован, API возвращает
+  понятную ошибку `declared-but-unhandled`.
+- Handler registry очищается при component unmount, reload/disable flow и
+  `api.dispose()`.
+- Shell command palette открывается через `Ctrl+K` / `Cmd+K` или
+  `Ctrl+Shift+P` / `Cmd+Shift+P`, показывает commands enabled plugins,
+  фильтрует по title/id/plugin и вызывает зарегистрированные bundled frontend
+  handlers.
+
+`statusBarItems`
+
+- Shell status bar renders enabled plugin `statusBarItems` contributions.
+- Items support `left`, `center`, and `right` positions. Missing position
+  defaults to `left`.
+- The host refreshes on plugin reload/enable/disable through
+  `verstak:plugins-changed`.
+- `handler` is preserved in the contribution summary for future action routing;
+  current host only renders status labels.
+
+`contributions`
+
+- `contributions.list()` — возвращает весь flattened contribution summary.
+- `contributions.list(point)` — возвращает массив contribution records для
+  конкретного поля (`fileActions`, `noteActions`, `contextMenuEntries`, etc).
+- Runtime records include `pluginId`, so consumer surfaces can call
+  `commands.executeFor(record.pluginId, record.handler, args)`.
+
+`events`
+
+- `events.subscribe(eventName, handler)` — frontend-local subscription с backend
+  validation permission `events.subscribe`. Возвращает `Promise<unsubscribe>`.
+- `events.publish(eventName, payload)` — backend проверяет `events.publish`, затем
+  событие dispatch'ится в bundled frontend event bus.
+- Handler получает envelope `{ name, pluginId, payload, timestamp }`.
+- Subscriptions очищаются при component unmount, reload/disable flow и
+  `api.dispose()`.
+- Core publishes `file.changed` for Files API mutations and live vault watcher
+  changes. Watcher payloads use `operation: "external.create"`,
+  `"external.update"`, or `"external.delete"`, include vault-relative `path`,
+  `type`, `workspaceRootPath`, and `external: true`.
+
+`files`
+
+- `files.list(relativeDir)` — list directory using a vault-relative path.
+- `files.metadata(relativePath)` — returns file/folder/symlink metadata.
+- `files.readText(relativePath)` — reads a UTF-8 regular file, with a size limit.
+- `files.readBytes(relativePath)` — reads a regular file up to 8 MB and returns
+  `{ relativePath, size, mimeHint, dataBase64 }` for bounded binary preview use.
+- `files.writeText(relativePath, content, options)` — atomically writes text via
+  temp-file-and-rename. `options.createIfMissing` and `options.overwrite`
+  control conflicts.
+- `files.writeBytes(relativePath, dataBase64, options)` — decodes a base64
+  payload up to 8 MB and atomically writes bytes via temp-file-and-rename.
+  `options.createIfMissing` and `options.overwrite` control conflicts.
+- `files.createFolder(relativePath)` — creates one folder when the parent exists.
+- `files.move(from, to, options)` — moves a file or folder; rejects moving a
+  folder into itself and conflicts unless `options.overwrite` is true.
+- `files.trash(relativePath)` — moves a file/folder into internal
+  `.verstak/trash/files/<trashId>/...` and returns trash metadata.
+- `files.listTrash()` — returns internal file trash metadata, newest first.
+- `files.restoreTrash(trashId, options)` — restores a file/folder from internal
+  trash to its original vault-relative path, or to `options.targetPath`.
+  Conflicts are rejected unless `options.overwrite` is true.
+- `files.deleteTrash(trashId)` — permanently removes a file/folder already in
+  internal trash. This operation cannot be undone.
+- UI policy: the Deal `Files` plugin displays only live files and folders.
+  The global official `verstak.trash` plugin owns listing, restoring, filtering,
+  and permanently deleting deleted items across the vault.
+- `files.openExternal(relativePath)` — opens a vault-relative file/folder in
+  the OS default application.
+- `files.showInFolder(relativePath)` — reveals a vault-relative file/folder in
+  the OS file manager where the platform supports it.
+- Backend requires plugin exists, enabled, status `loaded`/`degraded`, open
+  vault, and `files.read`, `files.write`, `files.delete`, or
+  `files.openExternal`.
+- All paths are canonical vault-relative slash paths. Backslashes, POSIX
+  absolute paths, Windows drive paths, UNC/network paths, `..`, null bytes,
+  symlink traversal, and public access to `.verstak/` are rejected.
+- `.verstak` is reserved case-insensitively: `.verstak`, `.Verstak`, and any
+  first path segment with that spelling are internal-only.
+- `files.metadata` may report a final symlink as `type: "symlink"`, but
+  `files.list` through a symlink directory and all read/write/move/trash
+  operations through symlinks are forbidden in Milestone 6a.
+- `readText` is limited to UTF-8 regular files up to 2 MB. `readBytes` and
+  `writeBytes` are bounded byte contracts up to 8 MB; chunked streaming is
+  deferred.
+- Live watcher refresh is active while Verstak is running and a vault is open.
+  It performs an initial no-event snapshot, then publishes `file.changed` for
+  external creates, updates, and deletes outside `.verstak/`. It does not keep a
+  persistent snapshot or report what changed while Verstak was closed.
+
+`sync`
+
+- `sync.now()` pushes local operations, pulls remote operations, and returns
+  `{ pushed, pulled, serverSequence, conflicts?, applyErrors? }`.
+- `conflicts` is an array of server-reported sync conflicts. Conflict objects
+  may include `op_id`, `entity_type`, `entity_id`, `reason`, and additional
+  server fields. The Sync plugin must show conflict details instead of only a
+  count, and it must not silently resolve or overwrite local data.
+- `applyErrors` lists local apply failures for pulled operations. These are
+  user-visible warnings and do not imply that sync was fully successful.
+- Transport push/pull uses bounded retry/backoff for transient HTTP/network
+  failures. Client/auth errors are not retried.
+
+`dispose`
+
+- `dispose()` вызывается host'ом при cleanup. Plugin code обычно не вызывает его
+  напрямую. Он удаляет зарегистрированные command handlers и event subscriptions.

+## Frontend Bundle Contract
+
+### Регистрация компонентов
+
+Плагин регистрирует frontend компоненты через глобальную функцию `window.VerstakPluginRegister`:
+
+```javascript
+window.VerstakPluginRegister('plugin.id', {
+  components: {
+    'ComponentName': {
+      mount: function(containerEl, props, api) {
+        // containerEl — div, созданный PluginBundleHost
+        // api — ограниченный VerstakPluginAPI
+        containerEl.innerHTML = '<h1>Hello from plugin!</h1>';
+      },
+      unmount: function(containerEl) {
+        // Очистка при смене view
+        containerEl.innerHTML = '';
+      }
+    }
+  }
+});
+```
+
+### VerstakPluginAPI
+
+API объект передаётся в `mount()` и содержит plugin-scoped методы текущего
+bundled runtime. Это реальный runtime contract для cooperative bundled plugins,
+но не sandbox/security boundary.

+- permissions/capabilities checks являются contract/policy checks;
+- bundled frontend plugins исполняются в общем JS-контексте;
+- malicious JS не изолирован;
+- sidecar process lifecycle, RPC transport и sandbox enforcement ещё не
+  реализованы.
+- Files paths are slash-only vault-relative contract paths; backslashes,
+  Windows absolute paths, UNC paths, `.verstak` variants, traversal and symlink
+  operations are rejected by backend policy checks.
+
+### Загрузка бандла
+
+1. `PluginBundleHost` получает pluginId и componentId
+2. Вызывает `App.GetPluginFrontendInfo(pluginId)` — получает entry/style/rootPath
+3. Вызывает `App.GetPluginAssetContent(pluginId, entry)` — получает JS контент
+4. Выполняет контент через `new Function(content)` — bundle вызывает `VerstakPluginRegister`
+5. Находит компонент по componentId и вызывает `mount(container, props, api)`
+6. При смене view — вызывает `unmount(container)` для старого компонента
+
+### Безопасность asset path
+
+| Правило | Проверка |
+|---|---|
+| Нет абсолютных путей | Пути, начинающиеся с `/` или `\`, отклоняются |
+| Нет path traversal | Пути, содержащие `..`, отклоняются |
+| Нет выхода за root | После `filepath.Join` проверяется, что путь внутри plugin root |
+| Только существующие файлы | `os.ReadFile` возвращает ошибку если файл не существует |
+
+### manifest frontend config
+
+```json
+{
+  "frontend": {
+    "entry": "frontend/dist/index.js",
+    "style": "frontend/style.css"
+  }
+}
+```
 
 ## Reload
 
 `ReloadPlugins()` в `internal/api/app.go` позволяет перезагрузить plugins без перезапуска приложения:
 
-1. Unregister all capabilities (кроме core).
+1. Unregister contributions всех plugins предыдущего discovery.
-2. Re-register core capabilities.
+2. Unregister all non-core capabilities.
-3. Re-scan discovery directories.
+3. Re-register core capabilities + vault + Deal manager (если открыт).
-4. Re-run capability resolution.
+4. Re-scan discovery directories и повторить capability resolution.
-5. Re-register contributions.
+5. Register contributions для loaded/degraded plugins (disabled/failed — не регистрируются).
+6. Update plugins list.
 
 Frontend вызывает это при нажатии "Reload" в Plugin Manager.

+## Дело: core capability
+
+Дело — это физическая папка верхнего уровня внутри vault root. Filesystem
+является source of truth для списка Дел.
+
+Пример:
+
+```
+<vault>/
+  Deal/
+    Notes/
+  Project/
+  ClientA/
+  .verstak/
+```
+
+Нет единого `<vault>/Deal/` контейнера для всех Дел. Папка `Deal/` может быть
+обычным Делом, но `Project/` и `ClientA/` являются такими же Делами на том же
+уровне.
+
+### Хранение
+
+Существование и список Дел хранятся только в filesystem:
+
+- `ListWorkspaces()` читает top-level directories из vault root.
+- `.verstak`, reserved/internal directories, top-level files и symlinks не
+  считаются Делами.
+- `.verstak/workspace*.json` не является source of truth для списка Дел.
+- Нет virtual workspace tree, которое
+  мапится на произвольные папки.
+
+`.verstak` может хранить только metadata, которая не заменяет filesystem:
+
+- UI state: выбранное Дело, expanded folders, sort/pin state, preferences.
+- Semantic snapshot: applied template snapshot, enabled feature areas, exact
+  `workspaceTools`, and folder conventions.
+
+При создании Дела runtime генерирует UUID и сохраняет его в
+`.verstak/workspace.json`. `workspaceId` — постоянная личность Дела;
+`workspaceRootPath` и `workspaceName` — изменяемый адрес и presentation fields.
+Переименование обновляет путь, но не ID. Новая папка с прежним именем получает
+другой ID и не может перехватить старые привязки.

-## First Run / Vault Selection Flow
+- `ListWorkspaces()` — список top-level папок Дел с их `workspaceId`.
+- `ListWorkspaceTemplates()` — selectable built-in templates с presentation
+  metadata и `workspaceTools`.
+- `CreateWorkspace(name, templateId?)` — создать `<vault>/<name>/`, применить
+  template один раз, сохранить snapshot metadata.
+- `RenameWorkspace(oldName, newName)` — физически переименовать top-level папку
+  Дела и обновить metadata name, не меняя `workspaceId`.
+- `TrashWorkspace(name)` — перенести весь top-level folder Дела в internal
+  trash policy.
+- `GetWorkspaceMetadata(name)` — прочитать metadata или вернуть generic fallback.
+- `UpdateWorkspaceMetadata(name, patch)` — обновить metadata без влияния на
+  существование Дела.
 
-При запуске:
+Deprecated compatibility APIs:
-1. Загрузить app settings
-2. Если `currentVaultPath` пустой или vault не открывается → показать Vault Selection UI
-3. Если `currentVaultPath` валиден → открыть vault автоматически
 
-Vault Selection UI:
+- `GetWorkspaceTree()` — flat view, derived from top-level folders. Не дерево.
-- Create new vault → `CreateVault(path)` → `SetCurrentVault(path)`
+- `CreateWorkspaceNode(...)` — wrapper over `CreateWorkspace`.
-- Open existing vault → `SetCurrentVault(path)`
+- `RenameWorkspaceNode(...)` — wrapper over `RenameWorkspace`.
-- Recent vaults → `SetCurrentVault(path)`
+- `ArchiveWorkspaceNode(...)` — wrapper over `TrashWorkspace`.
-- Ошибка открытия → показать понятный текст
+- `MoveWorkspaceNode(...)` — unsupported; old nested/mapped moves are rejected.
+- `GetCurrentWorkspaceNode()` / `SetCurrentWorkspaceNode(...)` — wrappers over
+  selected top-level Deal UI state.
 
-После успешного открытия:
+Эти методы существуют только для постепенного frontend/Wails cleanup. Они не

-## Enable/Disable Lifecycle
+### Capability
 
-1. Пользователь нажимает Enable/Disable в Plugin Manager
+`verstak/core/workspace/v1` — техническое имя capability; оно регистрируется
-2. Фронт вызывает `EnablePlugin(id)` / `DisablePlugin(id)` на бэкенде
+только когда vault открыт и Deal manager инициализирован.
-3. Бэкенд пишет в `<vault>/.verstak/plugins.json`
-4. Фронт вызывает `ReloadPlugins()` для пересчёта lifecycle
-5. Disabled plugin не регистрирует capabilities/contributions
-6. После enable — capabilities/contributions возвращаются
 
-Важно:
+### Правила
-- Installed plugin package ≠ enabled plugin
+
-- Disabled plugin виден как installed/disabled
+- Имя Дела — один safe folder name, не path.
-- Missing desired plugin показывается как "missing"
+- Reject: empty, slash, backslash, absolute-looking paths, `..`, null byte,
+  `.verstak`, reserved/internal names, symlink Дел, conflicts.
+- WorkspaceItems получают техническое поле `workspaceRootPath`, равное имени top-level папки
+  (`Project`, `ClientA`, etc). Files plugin показывает именно эту папку.
+- Files API остаётся raw vault-relative API: `Project/Notes/example.md`,
+  `Project/docs/file.md`, `Test/readme.md`.
+- Notes are ordinary Markdown files under `<Deal>/Notes/`; нет
+  `.verstak/notes`, UUID note storage или второго source of truth для note
+  content.
+
+### Lifecycle Events
+
+Runtime publishes lifecycle events Дел после успешных операций:
+
+- `workspace.created` — payload includes `operation: "create"`, `workspaceId`,
+  `workspaceRootPath`, `workspaceName`, and optional `templateId`.
+- `workspace.renamed` — payload includes `operation: "rename"`, `workspaceId`,
+  new `workspaceRootPath` / `workspaceName`, and previous path fields.
+- `workspace.trashed` — payload includes `operation: "trash"`, `workspaceId`,
+  `workspaceRootPath`, `workspaceName`, `trashId`, `trashPath`, and `deletedAt`.
+- `workspace.selected` — payload includes `operation: "select"`, `workspaceId`,
+  `workspaceRootPath`, and `workspaceName`.
+
+Official Activity subscribes to these events and stores them through the normal
+activity provider path.
+
+### UI
+
+Список Дел в sidebar:
+- Flat list of top-level папок Дел.
+- Создать Дело, переименовать Дело, переместить Дело в корзину.
+- Selection is stored as selected Deal name.
+- No expand/collapse tree and no case/folder node creation in core.
+
+---
+
+## Build Scripts
+
+В `verstak-desktop/scripts/` есть два скрипта:
+
+### `build.sh` — локальная детерминированная сборка
+
+- Собирает **только** `verstak-desktop` (core platform).
+- Не трогает другие репозитории.
+- **Fail-fast**: любая ошибка (go vet, go test, frontend build, wails build) прерывает сборку.
+- Проверяет: deps → frontend build → go mod download → go vet → go build → go test → wails build + plugin copy.
+- Используется в CI и для повседневной работы над core.
+
+### `update-and-build-all.sh` — dev helper для полной пересборки связки
+
+- **Не для CI.** Только для разработки, когда нужно быстро собрать всё вместе.
+- Шаги:
+  1. `git pull --ff-only` во всех 6 репозиториях
+  2. Сборка official plugins (frontend npm build + backend go build для каждого плагина)
+  3. Копирование собранных плагинов в `verstak-desktop/plugins/`
+  4. Запуск `build.sh` для сборки desktop
+- Ошибки pull и сборки плагинов не прерывают скрипт (best-effort), но ошибка build.sh прерывает (fail-fast).

+# UX/UI Refactor Plan
+
+## Assumptions
+
+- `verstak-desktop` is the core platform and UI shell. Notes, files, editor, activity, journal, browser inbox, and search behavior stay plugin-owned.
+- The old `~/git/verstak` UI is a visual and interaction reference, not an architecture source.
+- The v2 shell should improve orientation, density, keyboard/mouse ergonomics, and responsive behavior without reintroducing the v1 monolith.
+
+## Reference Rules
+
+Keep from v1:
+
+- compact dark workbench rhythm;
+- clear title/header zones;
+- dense rows and tabs for repeated work;
+- action controls that appear where the user is working;
+- custom, in-app interaction surfaces instead of browser-default dialogs where the flow is important.
+
+Avoid from v1:
+
+- putting user business workflows into `App.svelte`;
+- direct coupling between shell and notes/files/editor internals;
+- global mutable UI state that plugins must know about;
+- moving plugin behavior into core for visual convenience.
+
+## Mimo Delegation Model
+
+Use `~/bin/mimo.sh run --dir <repo> "<task>"` only for bounded junior tasks.
+
+Good tasks:
+
+- compare two small components and write a short report to `/tmp`;
+- draft CSS for a named component within existing tokens;
+- inspect one test file and suggest missing assertions;
+- make a one-component mechanical change after the target behavior is already specified.
+
+Do not delegate:
+
+- architecture decisions;
+- plugin/core boundary decisions;
+- final diff review;
+- verification claims;
+- commits or pushes.
+
+Every mimo result must be reviewed with `git diff` and verified independently.
+
+## Work Plan
+
+1. Shell orientation
+   - Move persistent search and workspace context into the workspace header.
+   - Keep exactly one global search entry visible at a time.
+   - Preserve search availability in global plugin views.
+
+2. Responsive shell
+   - Make narrow viewports usable by stacking sidebar above workspace content.
+   - Ensure tabs and workspace cards do not force horizontal page overflow.
+   - Add Playwright coverage for mobile geometry.
+
+3. Today surface
+   - Make Today feel like a work-resume surface, not a static card grid.
+   - Keep data loading from plugin settings/contributions; do not add business logic to core.
+   - Improve empty states and quick actions based on available workspace tools.
+
+4. Plugin manager polish
+   - Improve scanning, status density, and permission readability.
+   - Keep enable/disable/status behavior unchanged.
+   - Verify degraded/failed/disabled plugin paths.
+
+5. Files/workbench ergonomics
+   - Use the existing files plugin comparison report as input.
+   - Prefer plugin-local improvements: context menu, keyboard navigation, selection, and custom confirmation.
+   - Do not add file-manager logic to the shell.
+
+## Verification Gates
+
+Before commit:
+
+- `npm run build`
+- focused Playwright suite for the touched flow
+- full `npm run test:e2e` when App, Sidebar, WorkspaceHost, PluginManager, or shared shell layout changes
+- desktop and mobile screenshots inspected manually
+
+Before push:
+
+- re-run the relevant verification from a clean current worktree state;
+- inspect `git status` and `git diff --stat`;
+- push only after tests and visual smoke have current evidence.

+# Deal Templates
+
+Deal templates choose which dynamic plugin Deal tabs are visible when a new
+top-level Deal is created. They do not enable or disable plugins for the
+whole vault and do not affect global sidebar tools.
+
+## Built-in templates
+
+| Template | Deal tabs |
+| --- | --- |
+| General | Notes, Files, Journal, Activity, Browser Inbox |
+| Project | Notes, Files, Todos, Journal, Activity, Browser Inbox |
+| Writing | Notes, Files, Journal |
+| Admin | Notes, Files, Secrets, Todos, Journal |
+| Minimal | Notes, Files |
+
+The create-Deal modal displays the selected template description and its
+included plugin tabs before the folder is created.
+
+## Metadata and compatibility
+
+Creation stores a template snapshot in `.verstak/workspaces/` metadata. The
+snapshot contains the template id, name, version, applied time, and an ordered
+`workspaceTools` list of plugin IDs. Existing Deal metadata without
+`workspaceTools` remains compatible: its Deal continues to show all globally
+enabled Deal plugins rather than unexpectedly hiding tabs.
+
+Templates are applied once. Editing the built-in catalog or creating another
+Deal with a different template never changes an existing Deal snapshot.
+There is no template editor or post-creation template switcher yet.
+
+## Global tools and unavailable plugins
+
+Template visibility applies only to `workspaceItems` in the selected Deal.
+Global views and sidebar items, such as global Todos, Browser Inbox, and Trash,
+remain available according to the normal plugin enablement state.
+
+The Deal host intersects the snapshot with dynamically discovered, globally
+enabled plugin contributions. If a template references a plugin that is missing or
+disabled, that tab is simply absent; the other template tabs remain usable.

+# Native Notifications, Tray, and Public README Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Deliver native Todo reminders and Windows/Linux tray operation, then publish updated alpha artifacts and public README documentation with real application screenshots.
+
+**Architecture:** Desktop core stores and delivers plugin-owned notification schedules and controls the tray lifecycle. Todo uses the public plugin API to replace its desired reminders. A small core tray adapter keeps the Wails process alive after window close. Documentation uses the supplied English and Russian README sources plus screenshots from an actual test vault.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Go 1.24, Wails v2.12 runtime notifications, `getlantern/systray`, plain JavaScript plugin API, Node smoke tests, Playwright, bash packaging.
+
+## Global constraints
+
+- Support Windows and Linux only; no background daemon after an explicit Quit.
+- Closing a window hides it; only tray **Quit** ends the process.
+- `verstak.todo` requires `verstak/core/notifications/v1` and `notifications.schedule`.
+- Plugins cannot receive Wails runtime access.
+- Keep Wails generated bindings out of commits.
+- Commit each independent change and immediately push it to GitHub and `mirror`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Persisted notification scheduler
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `internal/core/notifications/manager.go`
+- Create: `internal/core/notifications/store.go`
+- Create: `internal/core/notifications/manager_test.go`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- `type Request struct { ID, DueAt, Title, Body string }`
+- `type Item struct { PluginID, ID, DueAt, Title, Body, SentForDueAt string }`
+- `type Sender interface { Send(context.Context, Item) error }`
+- `Manager.Replace(pluginID string, requests []Request) error`, `Clear(pluginID string) error`, `Start(context.Context)`, and `Stop()`.
+- Persistent state: `<vault>/.verstak/notifications/schedules.json`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add failing scheduler tests**
+
+```go
+func TestTickRetriesFailedSendAndAcknowledgesOneDelivery(t *testing.T) {
+    sender := &fakeSender{err: errors.New("unavailable")}
+    m := newTestManager(t, sender, time.Date(2026, 7, 14, 12, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC))
+    requireNoError(t, m.Replace("verstak.todo", []Request{{ID: "todo-1", DueAt: "2026-07-14T11:00:00Z", Title: "Reminder"}}))
+    m.Tick(context.Background())
+    if sender.calls != 1 || m.Items()[0].SentForDueAt != "" { t.Fatal("failed send was acknowledged") }
+    sender.err = nil
+    m.Tick(context.Background())
+    m.Tick(context.Background())
+    if sender.calls != 2 || m.Items()[0].SentForDueAt != "2026-07-14T11:00:00Z" { t.Fatal("delivery was not exactly once") }
+}
+```
+
+Also test stale records are removed by `Replace`, changing `DueAt` rearms a record, state reloads from disk, and a past-due unsent item is sent once.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Confirm red**
+
+Run: `GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/core/notifications -count=1`
+
+Expected: fails because the package does not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the minimal manager**
+
+Use one mutex, injected clock/sender, an atomic same-directory temp-file rename, and a 30-second ticker. Preserve `SentForDueAt` only if the requested due time is unchanged. Validate non-empty unique IDs, RFC3339 UTC dates, at most 500 requests, and bounded text. Mark sent only after `Sender.Send` succeeds.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Verify and commit**
+
+Run:
+```bash
+gofmt -w internal/core/notifications/*.go
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/core/notifications ./internal/core/... -count=1
+git diff --check
+```
+
+Commit/push:
+```bash
+git add internal/core/notifications
+git commit -m "feat: add persisted notification scheduler"
+git push https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak.git main
+git push mirror main
+```
+
+### Task 2: Permission-gated core/plugin notification API
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `main.go`
+- Modify: `internal/api/app.go`
+- Modify: `internal/api/app_test.go`
+- Modify: `internal/core/permissions/registry.go`
+- Modify: `frontend/src/lib/plugin-host/VerstakPluginAPI.js`
+- Modify: `frontend/tests/plugin-api-contributions-test.mjs`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Core capability: `verstak/core/notifications/v1`.
+- Permission: `notifications.schedule`, non-dangerous.
+- Bound methods: `ReplacePluginNotifications(pluginID string, items []notifications.Request) string` and `ClearPluginNotifications(pluginID string) string`.
+- Plugin methods: `api.notifications.replace(items)` and `api.notifications.clear()`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add failing backend and host-API tests**
+
+```go
+func TestReplacePluginNotificationsRequiresCapabilityAndPermission(t *testing.T) {
+    app, scheduler := newNotificationTestApp(t, manifestWithoutNotificationPermission)
+    if got := app.ReplacePluginNotifications("example", []notifications.Request{{ID: "r", DueAt: "2026-07-14T10:00:00Z", Title: "R"}}); got == "" {
+        t.Fatal("missing permission was accepted")
+    }
+    if scheduler.replaceCalls != 0 { t.Fatalf("replace calls = %d", scheduler.replaceCalls) }
+}
+```
+
+The JS test mocks `App.ReplacePluginNotifications`, calls `api.notifications.replace`, and asserts both plugin ID forwarding and a namespaced rejection for a non-empty backend error.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Confirm red**
+
+```bash
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/api -run TestReplacePluginNotificationsRequiresCapabilityAndPermission -count=1
+node frontend/tests/plugin-api-contributions-test.mjs
+```
+
+Expected: missing API methods.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement guarded bridge**
+
+Register the capability in `main.go`, construct the scheduler, and guard bound calls with both existing access helpers before forwarding. Add `notifications.schedule` to the registry. Add the public host methods using `callBackendErrorString`; do not expose `window.runtime` to plugins.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Verify and commit**
+
+```bash
+gofmt -w main.go internal/api/app.go internal/api/app_test.go internal/core/permissions/registry.go
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/api -count=1

+
+```bash
+git add main.go internal/api/app.go internal/api/app_test.go internal/core/permissions/registry.go frontend/src/lib/plugin-host/VerstakPluginAPI.js frontend/tests/plugin-api-contributions-test.mjs
+git commit -m "feat: expose scheduled notifications to plugins"
+git push https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak.git main
+git push mirror main
+```
+
+### Task 3: Todo reminder synchronization and Wails lifecycle
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `main.go`
+- Modify: `internal/api/app.go`
+- Modify: `internal/api/app_test.go`
+- Modify: `../verstak-official-plugins/plugins/todo/plugin.json`
+- Modify: `../verstak-official-plugins/plugins/todo/frontend/src/index.js`
+- Modify: `../verstak-official-plugins/plugins/todo/locales/en.json`
+- Modify: `../verstak-official-plugins/plugins/todo/locales/ru.json`
+- Modify: `../verstak-official-plugins/scripts/smoke-todo-plugin.js`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- `App.DomReady(ctx)` initializes Wails notifications before starting the scheduler.
+- `App.Shutdown(ctx)` stops it before Wails cleanup.
+- Todo replaces the complete reminder list only after Todo persistence succeeds and after Todo data loads.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add failing lifecycle and Todo smoke tests**
+
+The App test uses function variables for Wails calls and proves initialize → start and stop → cleanup order. The Todo smoke mock records `notifications.replace`; it asserts one open reminder request with the Todo ID and a later empty replacement after completion or deletion.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Confirm red**
+
+```bash
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/api -run 'TestDomReadyInitializesNotificationsBeforeScheduler|TestShutdownStopsNotifications' -count=1
+cd ../verstak-official-plugins && node scripts/smoke-todo-plugin.js
+```
+
+Expected: lifecycle methods and schedule calls are absent.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement lifecycle and Todo desired state**
+
+Use `runtime.InitializeNotifications`, `runtime.SendNotification`, and `runtime.CleanupNotifications` only in core. Register `OnDomReady`/ `OnShutdown` in Wails options. Todo maps open valid `reminderAt` values to ISO UTC using `new Date(todo.reminderAt).toISOString()`, localizes title/body, and calls `api.notifications.replace`. A scheduling failure reports status but never rolls back already-saved Todo data.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Verify and commit both repositories**
+
+```bash
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/api -count=1
+cd ../verstak-official-plugins && node scripts/smoke-todo-plugin.js && ./scripts/check.sh
+```
+
+```bash
+cd ../verstak-desktop
+git add main.go internal/api/app.go internal/api/app_test.go
+git commit -m "feat: start native notifications with desktop app"
+git push https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak.git main
+git push mirror main
+cd ../verstak-official-plugins
+git add plugins/todo scripts/smoke-todo-plugin.js
+git commit -m "feat: schedule native Todo reminders"
+git push https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak-official-plugins.git main
+git push mirror main
+```
+
+### Task 4: Windows/Linux tray, close policy, and single instance
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `internal/shell/tray/controller.go`
+- Create: `internal/shell/tray/controller_test.go`
+- Modify: `main.go`
+- Modify: `internal/api/app.go`
+- Modify: `internal/api/app_test.go`
+- Modify: `go.mod`
+- Modify: `go.sum`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- `tray.Start(icon []byte, actions Actions) error`, with `Actions.Show` and `Actions.Quit`.
+- `App.BeforeClose(ctx) bool` hides and returns true unless `App.Quit()` made shutdown explicit.
+- `App.ShowWindow()` reveals the existing window.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add failing close-policy and tray action tests**
+
+```go
+func TestBeforeCloseHidesWindowUntilExplicitQuit(t *testing.T) {
+    app, window := newWindowTestApp(t)
+    if prevent := app.BeforeClose(context.Background()); !prevent || window.hideCalls != 1 { t.Fatal("ordinary close must hide") }
+    app.Quit()
+    if prevent := app.BeforeClose(context.Background()); prevent { t.Fatal("explicit quit was prevented") }
+}
+```
+
+Use a fake tray adapter to assert exactly two labels, **Show Verstak** and **Quit**, and one callback invocation per click.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Confirm red**
+
+```bash
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/api -run TestBeforeCloseHidesWindowUntilExplicitQuit -count=1
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/shell/tray -count=1
+```
+
+Expected: absent packages/methods.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement adapter and Wails wiring**
+
+Add `github.com/getlantern/systray@v1.2.2`. The production adapter calls nonblocking `systray.Register`, sets compact source-controlled PNG bytes derived from the existing tracked logo, and starts goroutines for the two click channels. `main.go` registers `OnBeforeClose` and uses `options.SingleInstanceLock` whose second launch calls `app.ShowWindow`. Do not embed ignored Wails-generated files from `build/`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Verify and commit**
+
+```bash
+gofmt -w main.go internal/api/app.go internal/api/app_test.go internal/shell/tray/*.go
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache go test ./internal/shell/tray ./internal/api -count=1
+./scripts/build.sh
+ldd build/bin/verstak-desktop | grep -E 'ayatana-appindicator|appindicator'
+git diff --check
+```
+
+```bash
+git add main.go internal/api/app.go internal/api/app_test.go internal/shell/tray go.mod go.sum
+git commit -m "feat: keep desktop app in system tray"
+git push https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak.git main
+git push mirror main
+```
+
+### Task 5: Packaging and public README screenshots
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `packaging/deb/control`
+- Modify: `scripts/build.sh`
+- Modify: `scripts/package-appimage.sh`
+- Modify: `scripts/test-package-formats.sh`
+- Modify: `README.md`
+- Create: `README.ru.md`
+- Create: `docs/screenshots/overview.png`
+- Create: `docs/screenshots/workspace-files-notes.png`
+- Create: `docs/screenshots/activity-journal.png`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add failing package-contract checks**
+
+Add assertions for `libayatana-appindicator3-dev` in the Linux build guidance, `libayatana-appindicator3-1` in Debian dependencies, and `ayatana-appindicator` in the AppImage packing verification.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Confirm red**
+
+Run: `./scripts/test-package-formats.sh`
+
+Expected: the first tray dependency assertion fails.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement portable package support**
+
+Declare the Debian runtime dependency. Make the Linux build error name the appindicator development header. Require the dynamically discovered appindicator library to appear in AppDir after the existing `ldd` traversal. Keep the Windows system-WebView2 policy unchanged.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Install the supplied public README sources**
+
+Replace this repository's `README.md` with the supplied English source at the workspace root and add the supplied Russian source as `README.ru.md`. Add an image strip after “What is Verstak?” / “Что такое Верстак?” that links to three tracked PNG screenshots and uses matching localized alt text.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Produce real screenshots**
+
+Build and run the desktop app against `/home/mirivlad/Nextcloud/Verstak/VerstakVault` on the active X display. Capture:
+1. Overview showing recent work and entry points;
+2. a populated workspace Files/Notes view;
+3. Activity with a suggested session and its Journal review.
+
+Use `scrot` or ImageMagick `import`, crop only surrounding desktop chrome, inspect every PNG visually, and do not add generated mockups. Remove all non-user-safe text from the test vault before capture.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Verify documentation and package contracts, commit, push**
+
+```bash
+./scripts/test-package-formats.sh
+git diff --check
+test -s docs/screenshots/overview.png
+test -s docs/screenshots/workspace-files-notes.png
+test -s docs/screenshots/activity-journal.png
+```
+
+```bash
+git add packaging/deb/control scripts/build.sh scripts/package-appimage.sh scripts/test-package-formats.sh README.md README.ru.md docs/screenshots
+git commit -m "docs: add public README and product screenshots"
+git push https://github.com/mirivlad/verstak.git main
+git push mirror main
+```
+
+### Task 6: Complete verification and GitHub alpha releases
+
+**Files:**
+- No source changes expected unless verification exposes a defect.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Run all checks**
+
+```bash
+GOCACHE=/tmp/verstak-go-cache ./scripts/test.sh
+./scripts/check.sh
+./scripts/test-package-formats.sh
+./scripts/test-build-windows.sh
+cd ../verstak-official-plugins && ./scripts/check.sh && ./scripts/test-package-portable.sh && ./scripts/test-publish-github-release.sh
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Build and checksum both alpha releases**
+
+```bash
+cd ../verstak-official-plugins && ./scripts/release.sh v0.1.0-alpha.2 && (cd release && sha256sum --check SHA256SUMS)
+cd ../verstak-desktop && ./scripts/release.sh v0.1.0-alpha.2 && (cd release && sha256sum --check SHA256SUMS)
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Publish and inspect releases**
+
+```bash
+cd ../verstak-official-plugins && ./scripts/publish-github-release.sh v0.1.0-alpha.2
+cd ../verstak-desktop && ./scripts/publish-github-release.sh v0.1.0-alpha.2
+gh release view v0.1.0-alpha.2 -R mirivlad/verstak-official-plugins
+gh release view v0.1.0-alpha.2 -R mirivlad/verstak
+```
+
+The final report distinguishes automated verification from the two required real desktop manual checks: tray close/show/quit and a near-future Todo notification while the window is hidden.

+# Native Notifications and System Tray Design
+
+**Status:** approved for implementation on 2026-07-14
+
+## Goal
+
+Deliver Todo reminders as native notifications on Windows and Linux, and keep
+Verstak running in the system tray when its main window is closed. The feature
+must work in the portable Windows archive, Debian package, and AppImage.
+
+## Scope
+
+- The desktop core owns notification delivery, scheduling, and tray lifetime.
+- `verstak.todo` owns the Todo-specific reminder policy and text.
+- No new official notifications plugin is introduced. A dynamic plugin cannot
+  call Wails directly, so it cannot be the native-notification transport.
+- macOS is out of scope for this alpha. The interfaces remain platform-neutral
+  where that costs nothing.
+
+## Tray behavior
+
+On Windows and Linux, a tray icon is registered before the Wails event loop
+starts. Its menu contains exactly two actions:
+
+1. **Show Verstak** — shows and focuses the existing main window.
+2. **Quit** — exits the process deliberately.
+
+Closing the main window with its window-manager close control hides the window
+and keeps the process, plugins, local browser receiver, and reminder scheduler
+alive. It does not terminate the application. The quit action temporarily
+allows the close lifecycle to finish and then exits normally.
+
+The app has a single-instance lock. If a user launches the executable while an
+instance is hidden in the tray, the existing instance shows its window instead
+of creating a second process.
+
+The implementation uses `github.com/getlantern/systray` through a small
+`internal/shell/tray` adapter. It uses `Register`, rather than its blocking
+`Run`, so Wails remains the owner of the GUI event loop. A compact PNG derived
+from the tracked project logo is encoded in the tray package, so a clean build
+does not depend on ignored Wails-generated icon files. The library accepts PNG
+icon bytes on both target platforms.
+
+## Notification capability and permission
+
+The core registers the capability:
+
+```
+verstak/core/notifications/v1
+```
+
+Plugins that use it must both require that capability and declare the
+`notifications.schedule` permission. The plugin-host API exposes only two
+operations within the calling plugin namespace:
+
+```
+api.notifications.replace(items)
+api.notifications.clear()
+```
+
+`replace` is an atomic desired-state replacement, not an append operation. An
+item contains a plugin-local stable `id`, an ISO-8601 UTC `dueAt`, a title, and
+a body. The core supplies the plugin ID and rejects calls from disabled,
+missing-permission, or undeclared-capability plugins. It also validates empty
+IDs, duplicate IDs, invalid timestamps, and unsafe oversized text.
+
+No plugin can send arbitrary immediate native notifications or address another
+plugin's schedules in this alpha.
+
+## Scheduler and persistence
+
+`internal/core/notifications` persists one canonical schedule file at:
+
+```
+<vault>/.verstak/notifications/schedules.json
+```
+
+Each record contains `{pluginId, id, dueAt, title, body, sentForDueAt}`.
+The composite `(pluginId, id)` is unique. Replacing an item with the same due
+time preserves `sentForDueAt`; changing `dueAt` clears it. Replacing a plugin's
+list removes its stale records. This provides deterministic cancellation for
+completed, deleted, and rescheduled Todos.
+
+The manager starts after Wails reaches `OnDomReady`, initializes Wails native
+notifications, and evaluates the persisted schedule immediately and then at
+least every 30 seconds. A sender is injected behind an interface for unit
+tests. After a successful delivery, the manager atomically records
+`sentForDueAt`. A delivery error leaves the schedule pending and is logged for
+a later retry.
+
+An expired record that has not been sent is delivered once after the next app
+start. A record already sent for its current due time is never sent again.
+Completely quitting Verstak stops the scheduler: no separate daemon or OS
+background service is added. Hiding the window in the tray does **not** stop it.
+
+The core calls `CleanupNotifications` during shutdown, including on Linux where
+it releases the D-Bus connection.
+
+## Todo behavior
+
+`verstak.todo` adds the core notifications capability to `requires` and adds
+the `notifications.schedule` permission. After every successful Todo storage
+write, it derives the complete desired reminder list:
+
+- include only open Todos with a valid `reminderAt`;
+- use the Todo ID as the stable notification ID;
+- convert local `datetime-local` input to an ISO-8601 UTC instant;
+- use the Todo title in the notification body and locale-aware reminder text;
+- call `api.notifications.replace` with the full list.
+
+The same replacement runs after loading persisted Todos, so a transient
+schedule-write failure repairs itself next time the Todo view is opened. A
+schedule API failure does not roll back Todo data; the UI reports the failure
+instead. The existing in-view overdue/reminder badge remains useful context and
+is not removed.
+
+## Packaging
+
+`getlantern/systray` requires CGO. The Windows release build already uses
+`x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc`; the Windows packaging tests must compile it with the
+tray dependency included. Linux build instructions add
+`libayatana-appindicator3-dev`. The Debian package declares the corresponding
+runtime dependency `libayatana-appindicator3-1`.
+
+The existing AppImage packager traverses `ldd` for the desktop executable and
+copies non-glibc runtime libraries. Its verification is extended to prove that
+the appindicator library is present in the AppDir when the tray implementation
+is compiled in.
+
+## Public README and product screenshots
+
+The workspace-root `README.md` and `README.ru.md` supplied by the maintainer
+become the public repository documents: the English source replaces this
+repository's `README.md`, and the Russian source is committed as
+`README.ru.md`. Their existing language links and public-release instructions
+are retained.
+
+Three screenshots are captured from the real desktop application using the
+test vault, then committed under `docs/screenshots/`:
+
+1. `overview.png` — returning to recent work and useful next actions;
+2. `workspace-files-notes.png` — ordinary vault files and Markdown notes in a
+   workspace;
+3. `activity-journal.png` — review of a factual activity session as a Journal
+   entry.
+
+Both README variants include the same three images with localized alt text.
+They are factual UI captures, not generated illustrative mockups. Capture data
+must be limited to the disposable test vault and inspected before commit so no
+credentials or personal content are published.
+
+## Test and manual verification
+
+Automated tests cover:
+
+- schedule replacement, cancellation, rescheduling, persistence, one-time
+  overdue delivery, failed-send retry, and permission/capability rejection;
+- Todo desired-list derivation and calls after create/edit/status/delete;
+- close policy: ordinary close hides, explicit quit permits shutdown;
+- tray controller action wiring and second-instance window reveal;
+- Linux/Windows build scripts and package dependency expectations.
+
+Manual smoke tests are required because neither unit tests nor Playwright can
+assert a real desktop notification area or OS toast:
+
+1. On Linux and Windows, start Verstak, close its window, use the tray menu to
+   reveal it, and use **Quit** to terminate it.
+2. Set a Todo reminder for a near future time, hide the window in the tray, and
+   observe one native notification.
+3. Quit before a future reminder, relaunch after it expires, and observe one
+   overdue notification with no duplicate on the next scheduler scan.
+4. Inspect all three README screenshots at their committed size and confirm
+   that they show only intended test-vault data and explain the feature named
+   in their localized captions.

+# UI Polish Milestone
+
+## Assumptions
+
+- This milestone is visual polish only: no backend API changes, no plugin contract changes, and no feature removal.
+- English remains the baseline UI language for this pass. Hardcoded Russian strings that are visible in core UI should be converted to English where touched.
+- Official plugins are plain JS bundles with injected CSS. Introducing a new shared UI package would be larger than this milestone, so shared primitives will be expressed as global design tokens/classes plus consistent local CSS in each bundle.
+- Desktop workbench density should stay compact. The goal is consistency, not a marketing-style redesign.
+
+## Audit Findings
+
+### Existing Tokens
+
+- `frontend/src/App.svelte` already defines partial global button classes: `btn-primary`, `btn-secondary`, `btn-danger`, `btn-ghost`, `btn-icon`, plus global button focus/disabled behavior.
+- Most shell and plugin surfaces hardcode the same dark palette directly: `#1a1a2e`, `#16213e`, `#0f3460`, `#4ecca3`, `#e94560`, `#8b8ba8`.
+- There are no named CSS variables for semantic surface, selected row, border, muted text, warning, or focus ring.
+- Plugin bundles repeat their own toolbar/button/list/empty/error styles instead of reusing shell-level primitives.
+
+### Repeated Patterns
+
+- Page/workspace headers: `WorkspaceHost.svelte`, `WorkbenchHost.svelte`, `ViewContainer.svelte`, plugin toolbars.
+- Tab bars: workspace tabs use a custom active style separate from selected rows and sidebar active states.
+- Toolbars: Files, Notes, Search, Activity, Journal, Browser Inbox, and default editor use similar but inconsistent dark toolbar rules.
+- List rows: Files rows, Notes rows, Activity rows, Journal rows, Secrets list items, Browser Inbox rows, Global Search results, WorkspaceTree rows.
+- Cards/panels: Today panels, worklog suggestions, Secrets detail/form, Browser Inbox detail text, plugin manager cards.
+- Empty/error states: many are plain centered text or show technical details as primary text.
+
+### Candidate Primitives
+
+Implement as global classes/tokens first, then apply locally:
+
+- PageHeader / WorkspaceHeader: compact title, metadata, right actions/search.
+- TabBar / TabButton: consistent active tab, hover, focus.
+- Toolbar / ToolbarGroup: grouped controls with separators and predictable height.
+- Button variants: primary, secondary, ghost, danger, icon.
+- ListRow: hover, selected, disabled, metadata line, actions zone.
+- Card: flat desktop panel with 6px radius and subtle border.
+- SplitPane: list/detail grid with shared border and selected item states.
+- EmptyState: centered title, hint, optional action.
+- InlineAlert: readable message plus optional details/debug text.
+- StatusBadge: compact semantic label for type, status, warning/error.
+- Menu: context menu with same surface, hover, danger item, separator.
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+1. Add semantic CSS variables and global primitive classes in `frontend/src/App.svelte`.
+   - Colors: background, surface, surface-muted, surface-hover, surface-selected, border, border-strong, text-primary, text-secondary, text-muted, accent, accent-muted, danger, warning, success.
+   - Spacing: 4/8/12/16/24/32 via variables.
+   - Radius, font sizes, focus ring, and modest elevation tokens.
+
+2. Normalize shell surfaces.
+   - Update `WorkspaceHost.svelte`, `WorkbenchHost.svelte`, `ViewContainer.svelte`, `Sidebar.svelte`, `WorkspaceTree.svelte`, `GlobalSearch.svelte`, and `TodaySurface.svelte` to use tokens and shared state rules.
+   - Convert visible Russian shell search/empty strings to English.
+   - Keep plugin manager architecture untouched; only global tokens should make it less visually divergent.
+
+3. Normalize Files.
+   - Group toolbar into Navigation, Create, Selection, Clipboard/More, and filter/sort areas.
+   - Keep existing context menu and operations, restyle menu with shared surface/hover/danger states.
+   - Make single row click open when no modifier is used; keep ctrl/meta/shift selection behavior and keyboard selection.
+   - Reduce actions column visual noise by showing secondary row actions on hover/selection and using a compact More/action group.
+
+4. Normalize Notes.
+   - Make New Note the primary page action.
+   - Keep filter/sort inside the toolbar group.
+   - Make entire note row readable and clickable; row actions remain visible enough and use icon-button states.
+   - Use shared empty/status/error styling.
+
+5. Normalize Search.
+   - Render results as compact rows/cards with type badge/icon, title/path, secondary match reason, and compact Open button.
+   - Show provider errors as inline alert-style secondary information, not as raw main status text.
+
+6. Normalize Activity and Journal.
+   - Add human-readable event labels such as "Workspace selected", "File opened", "Note edited", and "Work session detected".
+   - Move raw event names/source IDs into a details block or secondary metadata.
+   - Style plugin errors through inline alert patterns.
+   - Present worklog suggestions as cards with consistent title/summary/minutes actions.
+
+7. Normalize Secrets and Browser Inbox.
+   - Keep split-pane list/detail layout.
+   - Use shared list rows, detail card/form surfaces, and empty states.
+   - Render "Value hidden" as password-like hidden field state.
+   - Use button variants: primary for save/create, secondary for copy/edit/remove where appropriate, danger for delete/clear/remove destructive actions.
+
+8. Verify.
+   - Run desktop frontend build and relevant Playwright checks if available.
+   - Run official plugin smoke/check script.
+   - Capture before/after screenshots or save available after screenshots under `docs/ui-polish-assets/`.
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+- Backend API or Wails method changes.
+- Plugin manifest/contribution contract changes.
+- New heavy UI dependencies.
+- Full i18n extraction.
+- Redesigning the product information architecture.
+- Rebuilding official plugins into Svelte packages.
