* plugins: components catalog 2 (forms, tabs, table, tree, markdown, code, images)
Adds 18 components to TSX components panels, drawn with Orca's own
primitives and gated by ui.catalog 2 / ui.has() (Orca 1.4.247):
Textarea, Checkbox, RadioGroup, Slider, Field, Tabs/Tab, Collapsible,
Toolbar, Grid, a virtualized Table with sort, selection and pull-based
paging, a keyboard Tree with lazy children, Markdown (sanitized, links
through the checked open path), CodeView (Orca's highlighter), Image
(header-checked plugin files read by main), KeyValue, Callout and
Skeleton, plus a tooltip prop on Button and IconButton.
Value controls share the edit protocol; handlers get plain JSON event
args, including small objects ({ keys }, { key, expanded }). The test kit
gains matching actions and hides unselected tabs and closed collapsibles;
a components-gallery example and e2e cover the catalog end to end.
* plugins: worker test harness, host refusals in tests and check
- orca/testing gains mountWorker(main, { host, events, commands }): it calls
the default-exported activate(orca) with the orca object Orca itself builds
(createPluginWorkerOrcaApi, moved to shared so the kit reuses it), backed by
mockHost. emit() checks payloads against Orca's event schemas and only
delivers subscribed events; command(), request() (the worker's
orca.panels.handle, as a panel's plugin.request), posts, logs, refusals and
deactivate(). Storage and settings share the mock host's in-memory store.
- orca plugin test loads a worker main's module graph as Orca's worker host
does (.ts/.mts transform, Node resolution, no runtime orca import).
- mockHost records refusals (capability_denied, not_permitted, ...) even
when plugin code catches them; panel.refusals exposes them and
orca plugin check reports them as warnings. Check dedupes repeated issues.
- Typings, docs and a generated references/testing.md skill reference; the
reference generator reads the split orca typings.
* feat(plugins): build-less TS/TSX plugins, typings and authoring tools
- Plugin frames transpile .ts/.tsx/.mts/.jsx on load (sucrase on a shared worker thread with a
2 s budget, cached in main), resolve relative imports to exact files, and refuse bare
package imports by name. Components and html panel/editor entries may be .ts/.tsx.
- orca plugin types writes typings for the components orca module, window.orca, worker
activate(orca), host.call and events into .orca/types, from one host-typings generator.
- orca plugin create --template components; templates omit publisher and target 1.4.246.
- orca plugin release-entry, dev inspect and restart; validate:plugin checks named files.
- Guest console errors reach orca plugin logs; dev workers restart on edits; the dev watcher
ignores .git, .orca and node_modules; Git and folder installs cannot replace catalog installs.
- examples/plugins/hello-tsx, docs, and the plugin-buildless-tsx e2e spec.
* ci: run the Windows parity probes with one tsgo checker
tsconfig.node peaks near 22 GB with tsgo's default four checkers (each holds its own types)
and about 16 GB with one; the 16 GB Windows runner paged the native probe past its 900 s
timeout once this branch's package.json change triggered the job. One checker gives the
same diagnostics (verified locally with --parity-only); the timing benchmark is unchanged.
