Several endpoints answered anyone with what fingerprints a deployment:
`/api/health?detailed=true` (versions, memory), the update status
(exact version and the text of a pending security advisory, even with
`loginShowVersion` off), `/api/plugins` (installed plugins and the hosts
they may reach), the admin policy (push relays, sidebar app URLs,
plugin lists) and `/api/config` (every domain each server serves).
Visitors without a session now get:
- the plain liveness answer from `/api/health`;
- the update status only where the login page shows the version, and
never the advisory text;
- a 401 from `/api/plugins`, which the client only syncs after signing
in;
- the policy without plugin lists, push relays and sidebar apps, marked
`X-Bulwark-Policy-Scope: public`; the client fetches the full policy
once it signs in;
- server domain lists only when servers are picked by domain.
A mailbox session, a remembered session cookie or the admin session
counts as signed in. Deployments without a session secret cannot tell
sessions apart and keep the old answers.
The plugin runtime received the active locale (init payload + 'locale-change')
and plugins could declare a `locales` map, but none of it was usable: the
locales never reached the runtime, and buildPluginApi exposed no i18n. So
plugin code calling pluginApi.i18n.t(...) (as the External Link Warning plugin
does) always got undefined and fell back to English.
Thread plugin locales end to end and surface an i18n API:
- ServerPlugin gains `locales`; the upload route persists manifest.locales
(alongside configSchema/settingsSchema), and /api/plugins surfaces it to the
client so it flows registry -> client -> sandbox host-bridge -> runtime.
- runtime sets __PLUGIN_LOCALE__ at init (not only on later 'locale-change')
and buildPluginApi exposes `i18n.locale` + `i18n.t(key, vars)` resolving
against the plugin's declared locales (manifest.locales) with English/key
fallback and {placeholder} interpolation.
Lets any sandboxed plugin localize its strings from its manifest.
