+
+## Navigation slice checkpoint
+
+The Vault stage adds `views.vault-pages`, the `vault-page` location, and the
+existing `views` permission. It grants no Vault/session data. The ordinary
+browser Scratchpad example uses only its own bounded view-state API and
+explicit user input. It is not a Notes API or automatic sync feature.
+
+The independent integration base includes #3956 UI polish and #3960 d4ca fixes;
+frozen evidence heads and prior PR bases are unchanged. Related UI changes in
+this stage are limited to VaultView/VaultViewLayout, new independent plugin
+components/hooks, and localized strings. PluginMarketplace/PluginPackageManager
+layouts are not rewritten. Native acceptance belongs to the parent with a new
+fixture-specific own-views approval. Sidebar, ThemePack, selected context and
+SFTP remain unfinished; this checkpoint is not overall completion.
+
+## Terminal sidebar checkpoint
+
+`views.terminal-sidebar` exposes one more existing sandbox view placement,
+using only the existing own-views permission. The host owns navigation,
+selection, split/close and focus. Its context is a surface string only; no
+terminal DTO or resource authority is implied. The Session Scratchpad fixture
+uses explicitly typed synthetic text and its own view state.
+
+This stage builds on ordinary merges containing #3960 8e4dd0c and the #3971
+stale-layout callback fix. Prior QA heads and PR bases are not rewritten. The
+ThemePack implementation, selected-context/drafts and file handles remain
+unfinished; parent review/native gates still apply to each delivered head.
+
+## Color-pack and remaining workflow checkpoint
+
+The first [ThemePack color layer](./theme-packs.md) now has an implemented host
+catalog, data-only admission, Appearance selector, local preview, revision-safe
+application/reset, missing-version fallback and host security palette boundary.
+It is not native-accepted until the new exact head is independently reviewed,
+built by CI and exercised through normal Settings. Terminal palette linkage is
+not accepted by this contract yet, so a declared but ignored linkage cannot be
+counted as coverage. Font/density/icon/background packs remain separate product
+and accessibility decisions, rather than arbitrary CSS permissions.
+
+Parent native evidence for sidebar `a8adeb86` now covers the original Local
+Terminal blocker, own-views Once, save, magnify/restore, a split with empty Notes,
+and side/bottom docking. `733f44c` adds only the production bridge projection
+regression. The older `0c097a1` CI run `40308057623` remains **failed and
+unattributed**: 9447 top-level TAP results are `ok`, the aggregate footer is
+missing and the process exits 1. A newer passing run does not change that record.
+The native Vault success retains its original `0c097a1` evidence label.
+
+The next implementation stages are bounded by useful workflows:
+
+1. **Selected terminal sharing and drafts (A).** Reuse host-signed action
+   contexts for an explicit selection preview/share, then let the plugin submit
+   a bounded input draft to the host compose surface. No Enter, raw PTY, history
+   enumeration or background terminal listener. First add a host-selected
+   session handle with a minimal from-scratch DTO and independent lifecycle
+   watch; navigation alone grants no content. Bind handles to actual session and
+   connection identity, runtime/version, owner, mode and TTL. Cover cancel,
+   reconnect, close, revoke and late draft results with synthetic terminals.
+2. **Selected file conversion/transfer (A).** The host picker issues read or
+   explicit-destination write handles. Start with one file, stat/read and saveAs
+   or upload, not recursive traversal or arbitrary paths. Require destination
+   preview/overwrite confirmation, byte/concurrency limits, cancellation,
+   session/endpoint identity and final active checks. Observe/cancel only the
+   plugin's own transfer. Real native SFTP targets require parent-coordinated
+   concrete approval; local tests use isolated fixtures.
+3. **Versioned document proposals (selected B).** Reuse snapshot/handle and host
+   review primitives for one explicitly shared editor document or Note. Apply
+   only an expected-version patch to its buffer after a visible diff; saving a
+   remote file remains a separate file operation. Reuse the draft path for a
+   selected snippet or new snippet template; do not run scripts or add onConnect
+   bindings. Cover edits after snapshot, detached ownership, closure and revoke.
+4. **Final reassessment.** Recheck the matrix by actual workflow and eight gates.
+   Read-only system aggregates, selected port-rule status and bounded navigation
+   may be added only where the shared primitives leave a concrete useful gap.
+   Full process arguments/env/inspect, tunnel start, arbitrary AI/MCP tools,
+   background jobs, general KV sync and raw high-privilege access remain deferred
+   or retained boundaries. Do not invent new C work to prolong the task.
+
+These stages remain unfinished work, not API-name coverage. Exact schemas and
+ordering will follow the existing brokers/adapters rather than a parallel RPC
+stack or one namespace per product module.

+# Market sources (unreleased)
+
+The plugin manager has Installed, Official marketplace and Third-party marketplace
+pages. Listing a plugin in the official market does not certify it or establish
+that Netcatty maintains it. Remote manifests, publisher names, source names and
+README content cannot create a host-issued official badge. This revision does not
+issue maintainer badges. README text and images remain author content.
+
+## Add a source
+
+Enter a public HTTPS origin, for example `https://plugins.example.com`, or that
+origin's `/v1/snapshot.json`. Names can change; identity is derived by the host
+from the canonical origin. Credentials, query strings, fragments, custom ports,
+IP literals and local hostnames are rejected. The initial third-party transport
+requires public IPv4 DNS records, pins the checked address to the TLS connection,
+and rejects private/reserved destinations. IPv6-only sources are not supported
+in this revision. No cookies, login tokens, redirects or GitHub fallback are used.
+
+Third-party sources begin empty. A failed request never substitutes the official
+catalog. Each source has its own in-memory last-known-good snapshot and selection
+tokens; an offline snapshot is browse-only. A process restart requires a fresh
+third-party fetch. The official source remains fixed to `plugins.netcatty.app`
+and retains its bundled source examples when unavailable.
+
+## Publish a static source
+
+Use the existing snapshot protocol in the registry project's
+`docs/STATIC-DISTRIBUTION.md`. Every source
+serves `/v1/snapshot.json`, pointing to hash/size-bound catalog, index and delivery
+JSON under `/snapshots/<delivery-sha256>/`. All resources remain on the source's
+origin under content-addressed `/assets/` paths. Whole-JSON budgets, schema,
+manifest, compatibility, browser-runtime admission and archive validation still
+apply. Third-party source consent is not permission consent.
+
+Delivery v1 is unchanged and source-only. Delivery **v2** has the same fields and
+strict schema as v1, with `schemaVersion: 2` and one extension: each plugin's
+`artifact` can be null or a package reference:
+
+```json
+{"path":"/assets/<64-lowercase-hex-sha256>.ncpkg","sha256":"<same-sha256>","size":12345}
+```
+
+Packages are at most 32 MiB. The catalog entry must contain
+`artifact: {url: "https://plugins.example.com/assets/<same-sha256>.ncpkg", sha256}`.
+The index's current, non-withdrawn version must exactly equal the catalog entry
+and use `distribution: "release"`. Source-only entries retain null delivery
+artifacts and `distribution: "source-only"`. Avatars remain null; remote README
+embeds are not loaded. README and PNG/WebP references retain the v1 bounds.
+Existing official bootstrap entries are not changed or made installable.
+
+Before every install, refresh and validate the entire snapshot again. A changed
+selection, withdrawal, unavailable source, altered hash or size prevents install;
+there is no fallback to another source or latest release. Packages install disabled.
+
+## Ownership and changing source
+
+A public plugin ID can have only one installed source. The package's host install
+metadata and durable database binding record that source, including across
+recovery and uninstall. Cross-source install or update is rejected, even when
+version and package bytes match. Local imports are a separate source.
+
+Private settings, view state, persistent and in-memory grants, secrets, and cloud
+sidecars are namespaced by host-derived source identity. Every source, including local imports, uses an opaque encoded owner; public plugin IDs are never storage-owner aliases in sync payloads. Before each sync entry and after every awaited contribution update/reset, the host rechecks that owner against the live source and contributions. Hydration captures its owner before yielding and never remaps a public ID for a later write. KV keys are qualified
+inside the existing per-plugin FK. Code, permissions and source configuration do
+not participate in cloud sync. Old-source cloud settings may remain orphaned;
+they cannot hydrate the same plugin ID from a different source. Generic KV still
+is not cloud-synced. No host/Vault/input migration changes are made.
+
+To change source, uninstall and explicitly select **clear this source's private
+data, grants and secrets**. The host serializes shutdown, revocation, private-file
+cleanup and binding reset. This is destructive and is never selected by default.
+Then install from the new source and review permissions again. An uninstall that
+retains data deliberately retains the binding and continues to reject other sources.
+
+Removing a market keeps its installed plugins and data. Updates stop; optionally
+disable its plugins. No other market silently takes over. Disabling a source only
+stops browsing/install/update access; it does not silently revoke existing plugins.
+
+## Validation limits
+
+Tests use synthetic source responses and first-party packages. Passing tests is
+not a sandbox certification. Native UI, real third-party hosting, network
+availability and multi-device encrypted-sync acceptance must be reported
+separately. No real credentials or untrusted community code are needed for tests.
+
+## Source-owner integration
+
+Use `PluginDatabase.getActivePlugin(context.pluginId)` to require a current host
+installation, then `database.privateOwner(plugin.id)` for an opaque data partition.
+`plugin.source` is host-owned `{id, kind, name, origin}`.
+`getRetainedPluginSource(pluginId)` returns a retained uninstall binding or null.
+`publicPluginId(owner)` resolves only an encoded owner matching the current source;
+it rejects raw public IDs and stale owners. Never accept owner/source from a plugin
+request or invent a `pluginId` fallback. Capture owner/source at async operation
+start and revalidate before committing; follow runtime lifecycle cancellation.
+
+Plugin database schema 7 atomically converts existing raw local private rows and
+KV keys to the same encoded-owner model without deleting them. This is a one-time
+conversion, not a parallel runtime compatibility path. A conflicting conversion
+fails without publishing schema 7. Old raw-ID cloud entries remain orphaned and
+cannot hydrate an installed plugin. Host/Vault/input schemas are unchanged.

-## Selection and installation
+Delivery contains `schemaVersion`, `registryCommit`, `catalogSha256`,

-Each returned entry has a host-generated `selectionToken` covering its complete

+Index is validated with its pinned schema. Plugin/version identities must be

+The host prepares private entries, private delivery resources and all public

+the same contributions and enforce unique tools and the eight-pane limit.
+Host-generated `plugin-view:<namespaced-view-id>` keys cannot replace built-in
+tools. Declared order and ID determine listing order; existing host docking,
+split resizing, magnification and close controls remain authoritative.
+
+The manager's internal Open event can select a page only when an open terminal
+is already selected. Otherwise the host asks the user to select a terminal; it
+does not connect or open a saved host. Launcher events target the session from
+the actual host terminal toolbar and are rechecked against current selection.
+These are internal host UI events, not public SDK router methods or trusted
+plugin `userGesture` flags.
+
+## Session ownership without data sharing
+
+The renderer binds each page to the actual terminal tab/workspace and current
+focused child session. It passes only `netcatty.surface: terminal-sidebar` as
+the view context. Internal ownership IDs are used for host state scoping, not
+returned to the page or treated as resource grants. A future selected-session
+data API must establish its own live endpoint authority and permissions.
+
+Changing terminal tabs or workspace focus closes the old native view before
+the new one can receive focus. Session removal, pane close, withdrawal of a
+visible contribution, disable/update/uninstall and runtime loss remove the
+affected page. Unknown saved routes are pruned without opening them; restoring
+a layout never grants the page or any session-data permission. State buckets
+are for the plugin's own UI data, not an isolation boundary against that same
+plugin's already-authorized own-state API. Ordinary KV does not become synced.
+
+PersistentSidePanelPortal moves a stable mount between the actual pane,
+magnification host and hidden parking host. There is no fallback native view
+over the entire terminal layer. Native geometry follows host DOM relocation,
+resize and scrolling; duplicate geometry updates are suppressed. Hidden/inert
+or parked mounts cannot reveal a native view.
+
+## Focus and security surfaces
+
+The existing sandbox ViewHost, immutable package/protocol checks, own-command
+and view-state boundaries are reused. Embedded pages start hidden. Host
+dialogs and overlapping portals hide them, and main-process App Lock closes
+them. Escape is host-owned and closes the plugin pane.
+
+Native WebContents focus is reported only to its actual owner's trusted
+renderer using a canonical instance-ID event. It updates the selected pane;
+it does not expose an Electron object to the plugin. Revealing multiple panes
+does not focus all of them: only the host-selected pane can request focus.
+The main process verifies actual owner, visibility, foreground and unlocked
+state before honoring that request. A plugin has no SDK method to invoke the
+host focus bridge. No session or page text is added to focus/audit logs.
+
+## Example and evidence
+
+`com.netcatty.session-scratchpad` 0.1.0 asks only for its own `views`. It saves,
+reopens and clears explicitly typed synthetic text. Package instructions and
+minimal native actions are in its README. Repository tests use real split
+tree, layout state, persistent portal, launcher and embedded-view components;
+host tests cover owner-bound focus, hidden/locked refusal and withdrawal.
+Feature and permission admission, limits, old APIs and previous Vault/command
+fixes are checked on the same stack. Independent review, exact-SHA CI and
+parent native QA remain separate acceptance gates recorded on the Draft PR.
+
+ThemePack, selected context/terminal drafts and SFTP handles remain subsequent
+bounded stages. Adding a sidebar page does not count as implementing them.

+# Host color theme packs
+
+Theme packs contribute validated light and dark host colors. They cannot inject
+CSS, access host DOM, change layout, load remote resources, replace security
+controls, or apply themselves. The feature is `appearance.theme-packs`.
+
+## Install and select
+
+Use normal Settings > Plugins to install and enable a package. In Appearance,
+choose a plugin theme for the current light or dark mode, then select Preview or
+Apply. Preview changes only the current window and writes no preference. Cancel,
+closing Appearance, changing mode, package withdrawal, or a newer committed
+revision ends that preview. Apply saves a host-owned, device-local choice and
+refreshes other application windows. Restore default clears the plugin choice
+for that mode and selects Snow or Midnight. Selecting a built-in swatch also
+clears that mode's plugin choice. Failures remain visible and are not reported as
+successful applications.
+
+The current view environment is globally broadcast. To keep temporary previews
+local, it publishes **committed** theme tokens only. Plugin pages follow an
+applied theme through their existing environment subscription; they do not
+receive another window's temporary preview. This does not add an owner-local
+view environment API.
+
+## Data-only package
+
+A pure theme uses `main: { "data": "theme" }`, contributes only `themes`, and
+omits permissions, activation events and companions. Its code runtime is never
+started, including by the runtime supervisor's startup or explicit-start path.
+Browser code plugins may also declare themes; choosing a theme does not start a
+runtime or grant their functional permissions. Only enabled packages appear.
+
+```json
+{
+  "features": { "required": ["appearance.theme-packs"] },
+  "main": { "data": "theme" },
+  "contributes": {
+    "themes": [{
+      "id": "com.example.colors.forest",
+      "label": "Forest",
+      "variant": "light",
+      "entry": "forest.json"
+    }]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+This fragment belongs in an otherwise complete manifest. Contribution IDs use
+the package namespace. Palette paths are package-relative JSON files, included
+and checked by the normal CLI/package store. Hosts lacking the required feature
+reject compatibility deterministically.
+
+```json
+{ "formatVersion": 1, "base": "light", "colors": { "accent": "#166534" } }
+```
+
+Colors merge onto a fixed accessible light/dark host base. Only opaque `#RRGGBB`
+values and canonical semantic keys are accepted. The 15 editable keys cover
+background/foreground, card and popover pairs, secondary and muted pairs, accent,
+destructive and its foreground, border and input. Primary, ring and the accent
+foregrounds are derived together, matching the existing theme conversion.
+Nineteen output fields are not nineteen independent controls.
+
+Each package has at most 32 themes; each palette is at most 64 KiB; the catalog
+and validated cache contain at most 256 entries. Schema and contrast checks run
+before catalog publication. Text pairs and state colors require at least 4.5:1;
+control borders and focus information require at least 3:1 against their
+surfaces. Invalid palettes produce bounded, content-free diagnostics and cannot
+be previewed or applied. Files are read from verified immutable package roots,
+with bounded reads and a no-follow final file open.
+
+## Ownership, recovery and security appearance
+
+The host stores selections separately from plugin KV, settings sidecars and
+cloud sync. A reference binds plugin ID, theme ID, exact version, archive digest
+and variant. Application uses a revision check plus an active-package check just
+before the atomic preference/audit transaction. An audit write failure rolls
+back the selection. Audit records contain revision/action metadata, not palette
+or user content.
+
+Disable, uninstall, update, missing entries and integrity failures withdraw the
+palette. A saved missing reference remains visible as unavailable while the
+same-mode safe host palette is used; a changed package is not automatically
+applied. Preview owner and committed revision checks prevent a late cancellation
+from replacing another preview or a newer application.
+
+Host dialogs, App Lock, grant/revoke, host details, keychain panels, host-key
+prompts and the credential picker use fixed host security variables while a
+plugin theme is active. The pack controls no font, icon, opacity, CSS selector,
+button text or ordering. System forced-colors/high-contrast preferences use a
+fixed host high-contrast fallback. Personal accent, fonts, terminal choices and
+accessibility preferences retain their authority. Existing personal custom CSS
+remains a user setting and is not exposed to plugins.
+
+This first layer changes host semantic colors. Static terminal palette linkage,
+custom high-contrast variants, fonts, density, icons and backgrounds remain
+separate bounded follow-ups; their fields are not silently accepted here.
+
+## Example and validation
+
+`examples/plugins/forest-theme-pack` is a four-file data package with light and
+dark Forest accents. It requests no permissions and contains no JavaScript.
+The starter, Vault Scratchpad and Session Scratchpad pages now subscribe to the
+existing seven public HSL tokens through `theme.js`, dispose on page hide, and
+use responsive host-colored controls. No new styling RPC is needed.
+
+Local evidence includes normal CLI validation/packing, schema/admission and
+no-runtime checks; host catalog/identity/size/contrast/CAS/migration/atomic-audit
+checks; picker preview/apply/cancel/reset and stale-owner/withdrawal/high-contrast
+checks; and view-template initial/live environment/disposal checks. Exact-SHA
+CI, independent review and parent native multi-window/security-surface acceptance
+remain separate delivery gates. Local production builds do not establish them.
+
+### First review / CI delta
+
+The first review found that muted text was validated only against its namesake
+muted surface, although host descriptions and statuses also use it on background,
+card and popover surfaces. The validator now checks generic and muted text on
+all neutral surfaces that reuse those tokens. The white-on-white counterexample
+is rejected both by the pure validator and the host catalog. Forest light/dark
+palettes remain valid.
+
+The first exact-head test run `40317690002` failed with 15187 passing tests,
+one failure and 50 skips. Its single failure was the unchanged TERM-SSHD
+concurrent failure-release test expecting a particular invocation to reach OPEN
+first. Both calls perform asynchronous local-file preparation. The test now
+requires exactly one explicit Permission denied result, one successful result
+with matching bytes, and no rejected concurrent handle; it retains concurrency
+without assuming filesystem completion order. No transfer implementation changed.
+The test file's original SHA256 was identical in e5bd294c, 733f44c and fdeeaf74:
+`8b200d9f6a05ac5cd91fe4e0a95ea36a770d22267a6a0162b4c9fc927beb52a7`.
+This is source identity and a source-based ordering diagnosis, not a claim that a
+baseline runtime failure was reproduced locally. The updated test needs the new
+exact-head CI result. That same first run passed the added Vite browser-import
+smoke, resolving the earlier local temp-directory limitation for that head.
+
+### Native security-color delta
+
+Parent native acceptance at f868 verified zero-permission installation/enabling,
+light/dark Preview and Cancel, Apply across main/Settings windows, Restore
+default, restart persistence, and Disable fallback with the unavailable notice.
+The isolated schema-3 profile was not touched. These core results remain valid.
+
+Native QA also found Forest-colored inner New Host cards/inputs/Save and some
+grant-panel text inside an otherwise fixed security container. The cause was
+Tailwind's derived `--color-*` aliases: changing only raw semantic tokens at the
+boundary does not recompute aliases already resolved on an ancestor. The same
+existing security rule now fixes both raw tokens and those color aliases. The
+selector and protected regions are unchanged; ordinary application cards remain
+theme-controlled. No host, credential or grant operation changed.
+
+The regression renders the actual HostDetailsPanel (including General, Address,
+Credentials cards, real Inputs and Save), plus the real grant-panel root. It
+compiles the production Tailwind source, verifies which aliases those utilities
+consume, checks the fixed declarations, and verifies an ordinary card is outside
+the security selector. This is component/compiled-CSS coverage, not a claim of
+native computed-color acceptance. The parent's native color delta remains the
+final visual check. A local Chromium probe aborted because its SUID sandbox was
+not configured; sandboxing was not disabled to retry.

+# Vault extension pages
+
+`views.vault-pages` adds the `vault-page` view location. A package must require
+the feature and declare the existing `views` permission. Hosts without the
+feature reject the package deterministically. Existing view locations and API
+versions keep their behavior; there is no public plugin router or new Vault
+read/write permission.
+
+## User workflow
+
+Visible, enabled contributions appear in Vault's **Extensions** group. The
+host generates a namespaced route from the declared view ID, orders by declared
+order and ID, localizes the label, and resolves the declared icon through the
+existing safe icon pipeline. Built-in navigation and security entry points
+remain host-owned. Collapsed navigation retains source-labelled accessible
+buttons.
+
+Selecting a page mounts its existing sandbox WebContentsView in the Vault main
+content area. It does not create a top tab, use an aside overlay, open a
+connection, or share host/session/Vault records. The trusted host context
+contains only `netcatty.surface: vault-page`. The manager's existing Open action
+can select the same page through an internal host event; this is not exposed
+as a generic SDK navigation capability.
+
+The `vault-scratchpad` browser example lets the user type synthetic text, save
+it in the plugin's own view state, return to Hosts, reopen, and clear it. It
+does not create a Vault Note or enable automatic cloud sync. The fixture asks
+for only `views`; granting it does not approve another plugin or data access.
+
+## Ownership and lifecycle
+
+The host owns the route and validates the selected contribution against the
+current visible catalog. Missing IDs, disable/uninstall/update, a false `when`,
+failed activation or a host close return to Hosts. Focus restoration checks
+the current section and active tab so an old fallback cannot steal focus after
+a newer selection. Catalog listing does not activate a plugin.
+
+The embedded host reuses PluginViewHost, its ephemeral session, CSP, no-Node
+preload, protocol validation, own-command checks, and bounded own view state.
+No DOM or Electron object enters the SDK. A window-route-and-slot scope separates
+this page's state from other view placements; actual BrowserWindow ownership is
+validated separately and does not rely on that state key. This initial embedded slice
+closes on navigation away even if `retainContextWhenHidden` is declared.
+
+Each opening reserves an instance ID owned by its actual BrowserWindow before
+asynchronous activation. Close can cancel that reservation before native
+construction. Owner closure, shutdown and renderer cleanup prevent a late open
+from attaching; late responses are also closed by the renderer lifecycle
+controller. Current plugin version/runtime and `when` are checked before
+attachment and on subsequent contribution changes. Existing owner checks apply
+to bounds, visibility, close and view-state IPC.
+
+Host reload/renderer exit and a view renderer crash close the associated native
+page. Plain Escape in a Vault page is handled by the host and returns to Hosts;
+it does not dispatch a plugin command or expose a general navigation API.
+
+Native child views sit above React portals. A Vault page starts hidden; the
+trusted renderer reveals it only after checking the mount and host dialogs,
+menus, popovers, overlay panels and lock surfaces. Overlapping host surfaces
+hide the page. App Lock additionally closes all hosted plugin views and
+cancels pending opens in the main process; showing a view while locked fails.
+
+The shared manifest bound remains 128 views per package. Only one Vault page is
+mounted per owner; listing and routing do not create a background view queue.
+View-state JSON size limits and existing runtime/permission quotas remain in
+force. No page text or state is added to audit logs by this adapter.
+
+## Validation status
+
+Source tests cover normal catalog selection, the actual embedded content slot,
+host-modal occlusion, synchronous tab-away cleanup, withdrawn and invalid
+routes, internal host selection, delayed open cancellation, feature/permission
+admission, host ownership, `when` withdrawal and App Lock. Production build,
+aggregate host tests and precise-SHA CI are reported on the accompanying Draft
+PR. Parent native acceptance must use the packed browser example through
+normal Settings and record its exact source SHA/package hash. Unit tests do
+not substitute for that native acceptance.
+
+Terminal sidebar pages and selected-session DTOs remain separate stages. This
+page location does not make those capabilities available.

+The fixture includes no executable plugin package, avatar or credentials.

+Schema revisions must be coordinated with the registry publisher. In particular,
+artifact/avatar are deliberately null in v1; do not expand this consumer alone.

+# Hello Netcatty
+
+This package is the runnable internal example for the plugin API. Package and install it to exercise native settings,
+command-palette contributions, lazy command and Provider activation,
+localization, terminal completion/decoration Providers, and the runtime SDK.
+
+From the repository root:
+
+```bash
+npm run build:plugin-packages
+node packages/plugin-cli/dist/cli.js validate examples/plugins/hello-netcatty
+node packages/plugin-cli/dist/cli.js compatibility examples/plugins/hello-netcatty --netcatty 0.0.0
+node packages/plugin-cli/dist/cli.js pack examples/plugins/hello-netcatty --out /tmp/hello-netcatty.ncpkg
+```
+
+After installation, change **Greeting** under **Settings → Plugins**, then run
+**Examples: Say Hello** from the command palette. The setting is read through
+the host settings broker and the command handler is registered inside the
+sandboxed plugin runtime. Type `netc` at a shell prompt to exercise the bounded
+completion Provider, and print `Hello from Netcatty` to exercise the declarative
+decoration Provider. Neither Provider receives raw xterm objects or sensitive
+terminal input/output streams.
+
+## Import and inspect
+
+Launch the normal browser-only plugin build using a fresh Electron
+user-data directory for demonstrations. In **Settings > Plugins**, choose
+**Import .ncpkg**, select the generated archive, and open its details. Review the
+manifest permissions, engine ranges and SHA-256, then choose **Enable**. Native
+permission prompts still mediate activation and sensitive operations.
+
+Importing an update is a manual action and leaves it disabled, including when
+the previous version was enabled. Review the new package before enabling it.
+Changing unsigned package contents changes its security principal; previous
+persistent grants are not transferred to different bytes.
+
+An incompatible application/API upgrade disables installed plugins before
+publishing their contributions. The reason remains in the installed list, and
+package files and local data remain available. Returning to a compatible host
+requires explicit re-enable. Uninstall is different: package code and local KV
+are deleted; user-owned settings, secret storage and sync sidecars are retained.
+
+For a synthetic demonstration, use only this first-party example, change the
+Greeting, invoke **Examples: Say Hello**, disable/re-enable, restart the app and
+inspect the package again. Do not connect real hosts or a cloud account. The
+existing greeting setting is local; declaring `sync: true` on a non-secret
+setting opts it into the existing encrypted settings sidecar. Generic SDK KV
+storage does not sync.
+
+For a demonstration without terminal permissions, use `examples/plugins/starter-netcatty`.
+Enabling this lazy example does not grant permissions: required permissions are
+requested before its first command/provider activation, and optional permissions
+when used. Never treat Enabled as a security certification or grant.

+# Plugin Starter
+
+A minimal first-party browser plugin for learning import, settings and lifecycle.
+It requests `commands`, `settings.read`, `menus` and `views`: no terminal text, host credentials,
+network, files, secrets or advanced Node access. It works without OS key storage.
+Permission declarations are not grants; follow the app's normal mediation.
+
+From the repository root:
+
+```sh
+npm run build:plugin-packages
+node packages/plugin-cli/dist/cli.js validate examples/plugins/starter-netcatty
+node packages/plugin-cli/dist/cli.js pack examples/plugins/starter-netcatty --out /tmp/starter-netcatty.ncpkg
+```
+
+Start the actual app normally with a fresh test profile; no development flag is
+needed. Open **Settings > Plugins > Open plugin manager > Installed**, import the package, inspect its
+permissions and enable it. Change **Greeting**, then find **Starter: Greeting Panel** (入门：问候面板)
+in the command palette. Review the normal permission prompts, then click
+**Show greeting** to see the exact preference in the sandboxed panel.
+**Starter: Read Greeting** is also listed and refreshes an already-open panel.
+The panel inserts text using `textContent`, never HTML. It does not write to
+a terminal or connect to a host. Denied permissions remain denied.
+
+Disable, restart and re-enable to verify the preference persists. Re-importing
+the same package leaves it disabled for review. Uninstall removes code and local
+KV; user-owned settings remain. The greeting is local only, not cloud-synced.
+
+The separate Hello Netcatty example demonstrates terminal providers and requests
+terminal permissions. Use this Starter for the default no-sensitive-access demo.
+
+
+Version 0.1.2 adds light/dark PNG brand icons in `assets/`. Displaying these
+images does not activate the plugin or request permissions. This example now
+requires API `>=0.1.0-internal.1 <0.2.0` and `metadata.brand-icon`.
+Older Starter 0.1.1 packages remain compatible with the new host.
+See [brand icon author instructions](../../../docs/plugin-platform/plugin-icons.md).
