Desktop plugin details now route into the shared Skills, Agents, and MCP management surfaces instead of maintaining separate read-only drilldowns. This also extends the desktop/server skill aggregation so plugin-provided skills appear in the shared list, groups MCP entries by source, and preserves detail-view back navigation based on where the user entered the page.
The implementation keeps plugin detail as the high-level capability hub while pushing real inspection into the existing management pages. Disabled plugins no longer expose false navigation paths into shared views, and the agent-browser regression script was expanded to exercise the new end-to-end flows.
Constraint: Shared Agents data only includes enabled plugin agents, so disabled plugins cannot deep-link into agent detail
Rejected: Keep duplicating full Skills/Agents/MCP detail inside Plugin detail | creates divergent UI flows and stale data paths
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: If a detail view can be opened from multiple entry points, keep the return target in store state rather than hardcoding a single back destination
Tested: desktop vitest for plugins/skills/agents/mcp; desktop tsc --noEmit; desktop vite build; server skills API test; agent-browser web regression on plugin->skill/mcp and plugin->agent back navigation
Not-tested: packaged desktop app regression after rebuilding the Tauri bundle
The desktop app previously lost project-level skills in two places: the
settings browser only queried user skills, and the slash-command picker for a
fresh session depended on CLI init state that does not exist before the first
turn. This change makes the skills APIs cwd-aware, falls back to project skill
loading before CLI init, syncs sidebar session deletion with open tabs, and
aligns the empty-session composer styling so the pre-message session UI stays
consistent.
Constraint: Fresh desktop sessions need slash-command discovery before the CLI websocket emits system/init
Constraint: Only repository code should be committed; build artifacts, installs, and /tmp smoke fixtures stay out of git
Rejected: Rebuild slash-command listings from full getCommands() in the sessions API | introduced auth-gated command dependencies unrelated to local skill discovery
Rejected: Unify EmptySession and ChatInput into one full component now | higher regression risk for normal chat interactions than a visual-only hero variant
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep pre-message skill discovery keyed to session workDir so project-level .claude/skills remain visible before the first turn
Tested: bun test src/server/__tests__/sessions.test.ts; cd desktop && bun run test -- --run src/__tests__/skillsSettings.test.tsx src/components/layout/Sidebar.test.tsx src/__tests__/pages.test.tsx src/pages/ActiveSession.test.tsx; cd desktop && bun run lint
Not-tested: Manual desktop smoke test against the rebuilt .app bundle in the local GUI
- Server: GET /api/skills (list) and GET /api/skills/detail (tree + files)
- Desktop: type definitions, API client, Zustand store
- i18n: EN/ZH translation keys for Skills tab
