ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 c444ff570b feat: let one module contribute a browser renderer to another's capability
The platform has had a complete story for one module using another's
*backend* since ADR 0006 — capabilities, versioned ranges, provider
registration. It has had none at all for one module using another's *browser*
code, and every workaround is wrong in a way that matters: a consumer cannot
import a peer module, it cannot re-implement a renderer for a domain it does
not own, and a second `entrypoints` role would put the platform in charge of
deciding when a slot inside someone else's screen should be filled.

Add a generic browser contribution. `manifestVersion: 7` declares one:
namespaced id, its own version, a target capability, a compatible range, and
one artifact. That is the complete list, and the omissions are the decision —
no payload schema, slot, ordering, or rendering hint exists anywhere, so Core
cannot learn what a slide is because the declaration cannot express it.

Discovery resolves a contribution artifact through the *identical* loop every
other compiled entrypoint uses, inheriting the path, containment, symlink,
extension, and file-kind checks rather than getting a weaker copy of them. The
registry publishes one only when another eligible module provides the target
capability within the declared range; otherwise it is absent rather than
mounted and broken. `apps/api` serves it as a sibling of the artifact and
display routes, with the same policy: three lookup keys, one exact match, one
already-validated path, and one indistinguishable 404 for unknown, undeclared,
stale, and incompatible alike.

A consumer discovers through the host, never through a URL. Its descriptor
carries identity, version, and capability; the URL stays server-side and is
resolved exactly as `api.request("records")` is. A module can only ever see
contributions aimed at a capability it itself provides, and cannot name its
way to anything else — a mount for a withheld id fails without fetching.

The consumer owns the domain contract entirely. Input is opaque JSON, checked
structurally so a Date, a function, a cycle, or `undefined` fails at the
boundary rather than vanishing somewhere far from the mistake, and checked for
nothing else. A contributed renderer receives its own id and that input: no
API client, realtime, principal, configuration, database, storage, or
credential. Loading one grants its module nothing.

The contribution ABI is versioned separately from the module UI ABI, because
the two have different shapes and lifecycles and coupling them would force
every module to rebuild whenever either moved. It supports asynchronous
readiness, update-without-remount (a screen that remounted per tick would
restart animations and reload media), deterministic cleanup in a `finally`,
and sanitized failure that never carries the consumer's domain data. Each
renderer mounts in its own isolated root with its own stylesheet.

The template now declares a contribution, so `pnpm build` exercises the whole
authoring path, and the shell suite drives the full relationship — one module
discovering, mounting, updating, and unmounting another's React renderer with
neither importing the other.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 07835b7b56 feat: give module UI real stylesheets, and every artifact its own root
ADR 0023 refused stylesheet imports for a good reason: esbuild would emit a
`.css` sidecar beside the artifact, nothing would declare it, no host would
fetch it, and it would work in a local test and silently do nothing in a real
host. Inline style objects were the whole story. They cannot express
`:hover`, `:focus-visible`, `:disabled`, `@media`, or `@keyframes` — so an
accessible focus treatment was not expressible, and the shared elements added
in the previous commit are built from real CSS for exactly that reason.

Compile the stylesheet into the artifact instead of beside it. A module
imports plain `.css`; the canonical builder resolves local `@import`s through
a nested bundle and turns each file into its compiled text, which the author
declares as `defineModuleUi({ styles })`. One declared file still contains
everything: nothing extra to publish, nothing to fetch, and no way for CSS to
become an asset nobody serves. The build additionally fails if a CSS output
ever appears beside an artifact, so a future loader change cannot bring the
sidecar back. Two rules are enforced with their own codes: a module stylesheet
may reference `--ekklesia-*` and never declare one, and every `@import` must
resolve locally or the artifact would fetch styles at run time. Plain `.css`
only; other dialects are a toolchain decision needing their own ADR.

Then make the isolation real. The generic loader mounts every browser artifact
— primary, display, and later a contributed renderer — inside an open Shadow
DOM root it creates, installs the artifact's stylesheet there, and hands the
artifact an element inside it. Shadow DOM is the one mechanism a browser
actually enforces; a class prefix or a "scope your selectors" instruction is a
convention one mistake defeats, and the failure mode is a module silently
restyling the Dashboard. It applies unconditionally, including to artifacts
with no stylesheet, because a conditional boundary is one a module can fall
out of by editing a source file. Both wrappers are `display: contents` through
base rules installed before the artifact's own, so layout is unchanged and a
full-viewport display can still override `:host`. Unmount removes the whole
root in a `finally`, so a cleanup that throws cannot leave styles behind, and
remounting cannot accumulate a second copy.

This is a correctness boundary for styles and is not described as a sandbox:
the root is `open` precisely because module code is trusted, same-realm code
that could reach `document` anyway.

An artifact's DOM is no longer a direct child of the host's element, so the
mount ABI is versioned explicitly. `defineModuleUi` stamps
`MODULE_UI_ABI_VERSION` so it can never drift from the SDK the artifact
compiled against, and a version-1 artifact fails with its own code — "rebuild
your module", not a typo hunt. No dual acceptance, matching every manifest
cutover here. Migration is one `pnpm build`.

`pnpm boundaries` allows `.css` only under `src/ui/` and `src/display/`: a
stylesheet anywhere else in a module is the undeclared sidecar again, just
relocated.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 e03d38fcab feat: give every Ekklesia screen one set of design tokens and elements
Modules have owned their own UI since ADR 0021, but the platform has never
said what that UI should look like. Every screen here — the Dashboard shell,
the display host, the module template — invented its own hex colours, font
stack, spacing, and radii, and they already disagreed. A module author had no
vocabulary for "the ordinary panel background", so the only available answer
was to invent one, and two modules would invent two.

Add `@ekklesia/design-tokens`: one validated, enumerable registry of semantic
tokens. A token declares a name, label, description, and default value; its
category and `--ekklesia-*` identifier are derived from the name, so it can
never claim one category while being named for another. Construction rejects
duplicates, malformed names, unknown categories, empty or overlong text, and
any value that is not a bounded literal — no declaration terminator, rule
block, comment, at-rule, `url(`, `!important`, escape, control character, or
markup. A registry that constructs can therefore be emitted as CSS without
escaping, because nothing needing escaping can be in it. That validation is
also what makes a future theme editor implementable rather than aspirational.

Add `@ekklesia/ui`: button, icon button, text input, select, checkbox, field
wrapper, panel, dialog, tabs, table and list primitives, badge, toast, and
empty/error/loading states — every value a token reference, with real
`:focus-visible` treatment and status that never depends on colour alone.
Deliberately small: an element earns its place when two consumers need it.

The stylesheet is a string rather than a `.css` file so the identical bytes
install into a document or an isolated artifact root, and so hover, disabled,
and focus-visible are real CSS rather than JavaScript approximations of them.

`pnpm boundaries` opens exactly two shared roles to modules, by name — every
other role stays rejected — and pins both design packages to the bottom of the
presentation stack. Both are browser-safe by construction, proven by a real
compile of module-shaped source in which `process.env` must fail to typecheck.

The shell installs the defaults at its document root for the Dashboard and the
display; custom properties inherit into module artifacts, so a module reads
`var(--ekklesia-…)` with nothing to import at run time and nothing for a host
to forget to pass.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 80189c8ae2 feat: give display devices their own paired identity
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 40s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 21s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m22s
ADR 0033 gave Ekklesia a display host and ADR 0034 gave it a login page.
Together, the only way to light a television in a foyer was to sign a
human being into it and leave that session running on a screen anyone can
walk up to: a person's credentials on a wall, a person's session as the
thing signage depends on, and the display going dark when they are
revoked or their session simply expires.

A screen is not a person. Ekklesia now recognizes three principal classes
— anonymous, authenticated human, and managed device — and a device is a
first-class principal with its own credential and its own explicit
permissions. It has no email, no password, and no row in the identity
tables, and it satisfies the `authenticated` baseline never, so every
route that settles for "somebody is signed in" stays closed to it.

Device permissions live in their own table because
ekklesia_core_grant.user_id is a non-null foreign key into the user table
and making it polymorphic would rewrite the platform's central
authorization record to serve one narrow case. That is a schema decision,
not a second decision point: the evaluator gained one branch, so a device
is allowed or denied by the same function, with the same deny-by-default,
as anyone else — with no owner path it could reach and no baseline that
stands in for a grant.

The six-digit code is not the credential. It is printed across a screen in
a public hallway, so it is treated as public: it identifies a request to
an administrator and is worth nothing alone. Collecting the credential
also requires a 256-bit claim secret held only in the requesting browser's
HttpOnly cookie, and approving requires the restricted core.devices.manage
permission. Without that split, reading a code off a wall would hand over
the screen's identity.

The permission a pairing asks for is read from the module's validated
display declaration, never from the request, so a browser cannot ask to be
granted core.devices.manage or another module's permission. Approval
grants exactly that one permission.

Credentials are stored only as SHA-256; the raw value exists in the
Set-Cookie that issues it and the device's own cookie jar, and is never
logged, returned in JSON, or placed in a URL. The cookie is HttpOnly, so
the module display code running in that same page cannot read it.
Revocation is a server-side column checked on every principal resolution,
and re-pairing mints a new identity so an old credential can never come
back. State transitions are conditional updates, so one code cannot be
approved twice or claimed into two credentials under a race.

/api/v1/principal still reports a device as anonymous: it is what the
Dashboard uses to decide whether a person is signed in. Displays read
their viewer from the descriptor instead, which already performed the
authorization — so displays are descriptor-first while the Dashboard stays
principal-first, and neither infers an identity by elimination.

Proven end to end against real PostgreSQL and real HTTP: an unpaired
screen shows a code, an owner approves it, the device opens the display
descriptor and a realtime stream, and revocation closes both while the
device still holds its cookie. An already-open SSE stream is bounded by
realtime's existing five-minute reconnect rather than closed instantly,
and that bound is documented rather than called immediate.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 36s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 20s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 41s
Two gaps stood between the module UI contract and a host that could use
it. ADR 0023 recorded the first honestly but never diagnosed it: a module
UI file compiled with `"types": []` could still typecheck `process.env`.
The second was simply missing — nothing imported a compiled artifact,
checked its identity, mounted it, or tore it down.

The leak was one type-only import, bisected against the real type graph
rather than guessed. `@ekklesia/module-ui-sdk` imported
`type { EkklesiaPrincipal } from "@ekklesia/contracts"`. Importing
contracts/identity alone is clean and importing Zod alone is clean, but
contracts exposes a single barrel entry, so that one import reached
module-database, whose Drizzle types re-introduce Node's globals. The
runtime was never affected — the import was erased and host-context.js is
`export {}` — but a type-graph leak is still a real boundary failure,
because it silently permits code that cannot run in its target
environment.

The fix is not a narrower import path. The SDK now has no dependencies at
all, so there is no graph to leak through and no future contracts change
can reopen this. It owns `ModuleUiPrincipal`: the same shape ADR 0022
chose, with the Zod brand dropped. That brand encodes a server-side
parsing guarantee a browser cannot produce, and it is the same reason
`permissions.has` already took a plain string. An Ekklesia host still
passes its own `EkklesiaPrincipal` straight through — a branded string is
assignable to `string` — while a standalone host builds the literal.
Proven the way an author experiences it: two fixtures compiled under the
exact project a module uses, one supported and one deliberately reaching
for `process`, with the second required to fail on that specific name.

`@ekklesia/module-ui-host` is the generic loader, in its own package
because the SDK is bundled into every module artifact and host-only
loader code has no business shipping there. The boundary checker enforces
both directions: modules may not depend on the loader, and the loader may
depend only on the SDK plus dev-time tooling.

The distinction that shaped the design: Core resolves `entrypoints.ui` to
an absolute path on the server's disk, and a browser needs a URL. A
loader that accepted the path would test green on a server and fail in
every real host, and would quietly own asset publication. So the loader
takes a browser-loadable URL and knows nothing about how one is obtained.
Ekklesia has no route that publishes installed artifacts, so this is
precisely: loader complete, publication deferred. Nothing can mount an
installed module UI yet, and the docs say so rather than implying
otherwise.

Dynamic import is `(url) => import(url)` with a non-analyzable specifier,
kept as a runtime import so a host does not statically bundle every
installed module or need a hardcoded registry. It is injectable for
bundlers needing their own escape hatch, and deliberately not `eval` or
`new Function`, which would cost a host `unsafe-eval` in its CSP.

Identity is validated through the SDK's existing parser before `mount`
runs, so a stale or mismatched bundle never renders. Contract violations
propagate unwrapped; the loader adds only import and mount failure codes,
sanitized, with the cause attached. Unmount is idempotent, safe when a
module returned no cleanup, and marks an instance unmounted before
running cleanup so a throwing cleanup surfaces once and never re-runs. A
failed mount registers no cleanup. Each instance owns its own state, so
two mounts coexist. The loader never mutates the host's container — not
on success, failure, or unmount.

Tests prove all of it against real module URLs (`data:`, which both
browsers and Node import natively) rather than filesystem paths,
including one artifact built by the canonical Pass 2 pipeline and run
under both an Ekklesia-shaped and a standalone-shaped context. Core,
apps/api, and the contracts package are untouched; discovery remains
inert.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 8d651c427d feat: define the module UI authoring model and host contract
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 30s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 23s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 45s
ADR 0021 established that a module may own UI and added a statically
validated, never-executed `entrypoints.ui` path, but deliberately left
five questions open: what the artifact exports, what a host provides,
how one artifact runs under both Ekklesia and a standalone host, what
the browser-side trust model is, and how module UI avoids being welded
to a Dashboard that does not exist. This answers them.

React and TypeScript are the supported module UI authoring model. The
repository already leaned this way: `packages/typescript-config` ships a
`browser.json` preset and a `react-native.json` preset with
`"jsx": "react-jsx"`, and ADR 0002 names browser and React Native
configurations. One framework is supported; every other stays rejected.

React is deliberately not part of the contract. A module's compiled
artifact default-exports `defineModuleUi({ id, version, mount })`, and
`mount(container, context)` takes a DOM element and returns an unmount
function. `id` and `version` are build-artifact identity markers a host
verifies against the manifest, mirroring `defineModuleRuntime` exactly.
A host needs an element and a context, never a matching rendering
library, so a module's framework, a host's framework, and the platform
boundary between them stay independent.

The contract lives in a new `@ekklesia/module-ui-sdk` rather than in
`@ekklesia/module-sdk`, for a concrete reason: that package re-exports
all of `@ekklesia/contracts`, so routing module UI through it would drag
Zod, Drizzle, and semver into every browser bundle. The new package has
no runtime dependencies, and its one dependency on contracts is
type-only — the emitted `host-context.js` is `export {};`, and a test
pins that so it cannot regress.

The host context is four members: `moduleId`, `api`, `principal`, and
`permissions`. Navigation, theme, module configuration, organization
context, and diagnostics are deliberately absent; each needs a design
that does not exist. Module UI reaches its backend through
`api.request(path)` with a path relative to its own API root and never
constructs `/api/v1/modules/<id>/...`, which is Ekklesia's private
deployment detail — a module that builds that URL is silently unhostable
anywhere else. One fixture artifact is mounted under two hosts with
different origins and URL shapes to prove it.

Client-side permission hints are presentation only, and both the docs
and a test say so plainly: a denied hint does not stop the module from
calling its API, because server-side `requirePermission` is the only
authority. Module UI is trusted code in the host's own browser realm —
no iframe, no sandbox — which matches the backend model rather than
overstating it, since a module's server half already holds the API's
database authority.

The boundary guard is narrowed precisely, not removed: `.tsx`, `react`,
and `react-dom` are un-denied and modules may depend on the new
`module-ui-sdk` role. `.jsx`, `.css`, every other framework,
`react-router-dom`, `react-native`, and `@vitejs/plugin-react` stay
denied, layer rules are untouched, and an unsupported framework aliased
behind an allowed name (`"react": "npm:vue@3"`) is resolved and rejected
by its real target. Fixtures prove each case, including that module UI
source still cannot import Core.

Core, apps/api, and the manifest contract are untouched. Discovery still
validates the `entrypoints.ui` path and never evaluates it; hosts
perform their own dynamic import and validate the result with
`parseModuleUiExport`. No Dashboard shell, UI runtime, navigation,
grouping, standalone host, build or styling pipeline, installer,
hot-loading, or feature module is added.
