Vault Scratchpad

Browser-only example of an actual Vault extension page. It needs only views and the required views.vault-pages feature. No host/session/Vault data, clipboard, network, filesystem, credentials or shell permission is requested. Text explicitly typed here is stored in this plugin's own bounded view state; it is not a Netcatty Note and is not automatically cloud-synced.

node packages/plugin-cli/dist/cli.js pack examples/plugins/vault-scratchpad/.package --out /tmp/vault-scratchpad.ncpkg

Import disabled through normal Settings, inspect and enable it. Under Vault's Extensions group choose Scratchpad. The sandbox must fill Vault's main content area, retaining the built-in sidebar and top tabs. Opening its detail entry must navigate to this same Vault page, without creating a top plugin tab.

For native QA, a separate explicit approval for this fixture's own views permission is required; earlier fixtures' grants do not cover this ID. With synthetic text, save, return to Hosts and reopen; verify the draft. Clear and reopen to verify deletion. Cancel the first permission prompt to verify that no page attaches. Switch away during opening, then disable/revoke and verify the page/entry disappear. Closing or withdrawing a page returns to Hosts. A host modal or overlapping menu must hide the native view while it is present.

This source example is not independent/native acceptance evidence. Parent QA records the precise tested commit and package hash separately.

Current UI build

The page now uses the host-rendered contract. Run node build.mjs in this example directory, then package .package/ with the plugin CLI. host.js registers ordinary DOM views; view.html and view.css are bundled source templates. Theme values are inherited from Netcatty. There is no separate page preload or window.netcattyView API. See docs/plugin-platform/host-rendered-ui.md.
