Creating a folder/file at a project-level folder-nav aggregator root
(working/staging/reviewing) used to error or silently shadow — the slots
are virtual and content is party-scoped. Now browse opens a party picker
that targets archive/<party>/<slot>/<name>, with a "+ New party…" option
(server-gated to the document_controller via the existing archive/ ACL).
- events.js: aggregatorRoot detection + openPartyPicker modal (mirrors the
stage.js modal), createInAggregator routes the create to the canonical
archive path; rewriteAggregatorPath handles right-clicking a party row
shown in an aggregator listing so it never re-prompts.
- server: serveFileMkdir now 409s a mkdir inside an aggregator
(rejectProjectAggregatorMkdir) with a pointer at archive/<party>/<slot>/,
instead of letting the write fall through to an unreachable shadow dir.
Reverts the prior session's project-level creator-owned working/ folders
(per the design decision to make all three folder-nav slots uniformly
party-scoped): working/ is a pure virtual aggregator again like
staging/reviewing — drops the working/ history+auto_own+acl defaults, the
EnsureCanonicalAncestors working exception, the working-root document-
controller file gate (serveFilePut/Move) and zddc.IsRoleMemberAt. Per-party
archive/<party>/working/ keeps its own history + auto-own.

Adds a "History…" context-menu item on markdown files in a history:true
subtree (server mode only — the audit is server-stamped). It opens a modal
that lists every saved version newest-first (timestamp + author + size,
current flagged), lets you View any version, Diff any two, and Restore one
(a forward PUT — non-destructive).
- shared/diff.js: dependency-free line/word LCS diff (window.zddc.diff),
prefix/suffix trimming + a cell cap so large files don't stall the UI.
- browse/js/history.js: the modal (list / view / diff / restore), talking to
GET <url>?history=1 and ?history=<sha>.
- loader.js carries the per-file history flag; events.js adds the menu item.
- Wired diff.js + history.js + history.css into browse/build.sh; diff.js into
the zddc-test.html shim. tests/diff.spec.js covers the diff algorithm.

The persistent #statusBar strip held whatever last-action message
was written ("Loaded N items", "Created folder X", error text, …)
and stuck around indefinitely, overlapping content while adding
little value. Deleted the strip; existing statusInfo/statusError
call sites now thunk through window.zddc.toast (the shared toast
helper every tool already bundles).
- Same function signatures: events.statusInfo /
events.statusError keep working without touching the 70+ call
sites across app.js, download.js, events.js, etc.
- plan-review.js had its own private statusInfo/statusError pair
(duplicated the DOM write); updated to route through
zddc.toast as well.
- statusClear becomes a no-op — toasts fade on their own (5s
info, 8s error via cap-toast) and the toast helper's
single-toast policy guarantees only the latest is visible.
Removed: #statusBar div from template.html, .status-bar / .is-error
/ .is-info / --error / --info rules from base.css and tree.css.
Zero remaining `statusBar` or `status-bar` references in the built
browse.html. Full Playwright suite green (243/0/4).

Three modes again behave consistently after Part 3's per-entry
gating:
1. file:// (FS Access API picker) — fromHandle leaves verbs unset
(now undefined, not ""). The events.js Rename/Delete gates
skip the cap.has cascade check when typeof node.verbs is not
'string', so the items stay enabled per the original canMutate
contract.
2. Caddy file-server — fromServerEntry sees no verbs in the
listing and preserves undefined. Same skip applies; Rename /
Delete stay enabled but the underlying server will 405 the
POST/DELETE (same pre-Part-3 behavior). Markdown/yaml editors
still mount read-only via cap.has's writable fallback.
3. zddc-server — verbs is always emitted (possibly as "" for an
explicit zero grant). cap.has interprets the string and the
gates apply.
The previous "verbs ?? ''" normalisation collapsed (1)+(2) into the
explicit-zero case, which incorrectly disabled Rename/Delete in
offline mode. Tri-state verbs (string non-empty / string empty /
undefined) restores the intent.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Browse's row context menu and in-place editors now consult the
server-computed verbs string (via window.zddc.cap.has) before
enabling write/delete affordances:
- Rename… disables when the entry's verbs lacks 'w'.
- Delete… disables when verbs lacks 'd'.
- Markdown editor mounts read-only when verbs lacks 'w'.
- YAML editor mounts read-only when verbs lacks 'w' for regular
files, 'a' for the .zddc placeholder (matches the file API's
ActionAdmin gate at that URL).
Disabled menu items carry a tooltip naming the missing access
("You don't have write access to this item.") so the user discovers
which permission is missing rather than just seeing a greyed row.
shared/context-menu.js gains a `tooltip` field (string or fn(ctx))
that sets the row's title attribute.
canMutate() stays as the source-side gate (server vs FS-API
reachability, zip-member / virtual filtering); verbs gate composes
on top. Server-side ACL still has the final say if a stale client
ever tries the action.
cap.has() falls back to node.writable for 'w' when verbs is absent,
so offline FS-API mode keeps working without a server.

The browse SPA's URL bar now reflects the currently-selected node and
the show-hidden toggle, so:
- bookmarking / copy-pasting the URL re-opens the same view
- reload (forced by the admin-mode toggle, which has to reload to
pick up the elevation cookie) lands the user back on the same
selection with intermediates expanded
- browser back/forward walks history correctly, re-applying both
the scope AND the file/hidden state at each step
Implementation:
events.js: syncURLToSelection() — builds <scope>/?file=<rel>&hidden=1
via URLSearchParams (with %2F → '/' so the URL bar reads cleanly)
and history.replaceState's it. Called from every selectedId set
site (single-click, arrow-key nav, right-click), from the show-
hidden toggle, and after rescopeServer's scope pushState so the
new scope keeps the hidden flag.
app.js bootstrap: reads ?hidden=1 in addition to the existing
auto-flip-on-dotfile logic, so an explicit hidden toggle survives
reload.
app.js popstate: re-walks ?file= via openDeepLink so back/forward
restore not just the scope but the selection + expansion path.
Also re-applies hidden=1.
Choice: replaceState (not pushState) on selection changes — the only
"intentional" navigation step is the scope rescope (already pushState).
A long click sequence shouldn't pollute history.
What this doesn't cover: sibling folders the user expanded that aren't
on the path-to-selection. Persisting that needs sessionStorage; for
"as much as possible without overcomplicating" the URL-only state
captures scope, selected node, and the path-to-selection (auto-
expanded by the deep-link walker) — the most common case.
FS-API mode (offline / file://) is a no-op — no shareable URL.

Document-level keydown handler covers the W3C tree-view pattern so
users can drive the browse pane without the mouse:
↓ / ↑ — move selection (auto-previews files as the cursor
lands so the right pane keeps up)
→ — expand collapsed folder; jump to first child if
already expanded; no-op on leaves
← — collapse expanded folder; otherwise jump to parent
Enter / Space — preview file / toggle folder
Home / End — first / last visible row
Bails out cleanly when focus is in an input/textarea/contenteditable
or when a modal / context menu is open, so it doesn't fight existing
filter typing, YAML editor, or the right-click menu's own keys. Any
modifier (Ctrl/Cmd/Alt) lets the browser shortcut through unchanged.
Selection updates scroll the now-current row into view via
scrollIntoView({block:'nearest'}). Tree module gains a visibleIds
export so events.js can walk the same filtered+expanded order the
renderer uses.

Two layers shipped together since the second builds on the first.
LAYER 1 — reviewing/ + Plan Review scaffolding
- reviewing/ is now a real folder under each project, populated by the
Plan Review composite endpoint. The old reviewing/ virtual aggregator
handler is retired.
- POST /<project>/archive/<party>/received/<tracking>/ with X-ZDDC-Op:
plan-review scaffolds physical workflow folders under reviewing_root
and staging_root, each carrying .zddc.received_path pointing back at
the canonical submittal. Idempotent re-runs match by received_path
and re-converge the ACL.
- Virtual received window: when listing or writing under
<workflow>/received/, the server resolves through the canonical
archive/<party>/received/<tracking>/ via the workflow's
.zddc.received_path. Writes get rewritten to
<workflow>/<base>+C<n><suffix> so review comments land in the
workflow folder and never touch the WORM archive.
- Cascade defaults declare on_plan_review per project so the
reviewing_root and staging_root are configurable.
LAYER 2 — browse context-menu workflows
- Accept Transmittal: right-click a transmittal folder in
archive/<party>/incoming/ → validates ZDDC folder + filename
conformance, atomic-renames the folder to
archive/<party>/received/<tracking>/ (WORM zone), and optionally
chains into Plan Review in the same composite request. Re-acceptance
with a different revision merges file-by-file; WORM forbids
overwrite of an existing filename.
- Stage / Unstage: right-click files in working/<…>/ → "Stage to…"
with picker of existing staging transmittal folders + inline
"New transmittal folder…" create; right-click files in
staging/<…>/ → "Unstage to working/" defaulting to the user's
working/<email>/ home. Reuses the file-API move primitive.
- Create Transmittal folder: right-click the staging/ pane → prompts
for a ZDDC-conforming folder name with live validation; mkdir,
then navigate to the new folder URL where the transmittal tool
serves the editor.
- Supporting infrastructure: new CanonicalFolderAt cascade lookup +
X-ZDDC-Canonical-Folder response header so the browse SPA can
scope-gate menu items without re-implementing the cascade
client-side.

Major upgrade to the browse tool's UX, plus a few shared modules other
tools can adopt.
User-facing:
- Right-click context menu on tree rows AND empty pane space. Traditional
file-manager grouping (Open / Download / New / Rename-Delete / Copy /
Tree ops / View). Items stay visible but disabled when not applicable
so muscle memory carries. Generic shared/context-menu.js framework
supports normal items, toggles, submenus, separators, danger styling.
- YAML editor for .yaml / .yml / .zddc files (CodeMirror 5 vendored at
shared/vendor/codemirror-yaml.min.*). js-yaml lint on every change
for parse errors. For .zddc cascade files, an additional schema-aware
lint pass flags unknown keys, bad enum values, and wrong types.
- Per-row drag-drop upload using webkitGetAsEntry (folder uploads work
recursively). Per-row drop indicator; doc-level overlay still fires
for blank-space drops at drop_target scopes.
- New folder / New markdown file context-menu items (server mode).
Rename + Delete with native confirm() dialog. File-API helpers
removeNode / renameNode use the existing PUT/POST/DELETE endpoints.
- Hover info card with the row's full metadata (ZDDC fields + filesystem
info + path/URL). Interactive — mouse into it, drag-select text,
Ctrl/Cmd-C or right-click → Copy. 200ms grace before dismiss.
- Autofilter input at the top of the tree pane. Same grammar as
archive's column filters (zddc.filter.parse / matches). Filters
files; folders without matches collapse out. Non-matching folders
force-open visually when descendants match, without mutating the
user's actual expand state.
- Two-line ZDDC label: title-first, tracking/rev/status as monospace
meta below. Icon column anchors to the title line. Chevron is a
Lucide outline `chevron-right` SVG, rotated 90° on `.expanded`.
- File-type Lucide icon sprite (shared/icons.js — 16 outline glyphs,
~5 KB). PDF / Word / Spreadsheet / Slides / Image / Video / Audio /
CAD / Web / Config / Code / Archive get distinct icons; folders
tinted with --primary.
- Header wraps gracefully at narrow viewports (shared/base.css
flex-wrap + title min-width:0 ellipsis). Body becomes flex column
in browse so a wrapping header doesn't break #appMain height.
- Markdown editor opens in WYSIWYG mode by default. YAML front-matter
+ TOC sidebar reworked: flexbox layout (single visible resizer
between FM and TOC), both bodies overflow:auto for X+Y scrollbars.
- `?file=<path>` deep links open browse pre-positioned at a specific
file. Multi-segment paths walk into subdirectories on the way.
Auto-flips Show hidden when a segment is dot/underscore-prefixed.
- Refresh + show-hidden toggle preserve expansion / selection /
preview pinning. Path-keyed snapshot survives a re-fetched listing.
- "Add Local Directory" → "Use Local Directory" across the four tools
that have it (browse, archive, classifier, +transmittal comment).

Adds a UI checkbox next to the existing Sort dropdown that surfaces
hidden entries when ACL would otherwise allow read. Default off
(matches today's filtered behavior). On toggle, browse re-fetches
the current directory with ?hidden=1 and re-renders.
┌─ browse toolbar ─────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Sort: [Name (A→Z) ▾] ☐ Show hidden │
└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Server-side surface:
- internal/fs/tree.go ListDirectory gains an `includeHidden bool`
parameter. The .-prefix filter (previously hard-coded) now also
drops _-prefix entries (matches dispatch's reserved-prefix guard)
and honors the new flag.
- internal/handler/directory.go reads `?hidden=1` from the request
and threads it through.
- cmd/zddc-server/main.go dispatcher relaxes its dot-prefix and
_-prefix guards for GET/HEAD when `?hidden=1` is set, so clicking
a hidden entry's link works. `_app/` (apps cache) stays
unconditionally reserved — those bytes must go through the apps
resolver. Writes to hidden paths stay blocked (the file API has
its own segment check that the flag does NOT relax).
- internal/listing/listing.go: signature parity (the lower-level
helper that's used by tests + non-cascade listing paths).
Security model unchanged: the ACL chain on the parent dir is the only
real gate. Whoever can read the dir can see its contents — toggling
"Show hidden" just stops the client-side filter from masking
.-prefixed and _-prefixed entries. Hidden paths today:
• <dir>/.zddc ACL YAML — already exposed via /.profile/zddc
• <dir>/.converted/<base> cached MD→DOCX/HTML/PDF, same sensitivity as source
• <root>/.zddc.d/tokens/ per-token metadata; filename = sha256(token)
so not bearer-usable. Default root ACL
restricts to admins; matches /.tokens UI.
• <root>/.zddc.d/logs/ access logs; same admins-only audience
• <root>/_app/ cached upstream tool HTML (public)
• <root>/_template/ install.zip scaffolding (public)
None of these contain bearer credentials or secret material that the
existing ACL doesn't already gate. The walls are still the cascade.
A "⤓ Download (zip)" button in the browse toolbar (shown once a
directory is loaded) downloads the directory you're currently
viewing — and everything under it you're allowed to see — as a single
.zip. Navigate into a subfolder first to grab just that subtree.
- Server mode: an <a download> at "<currentPath>?zip=1" — zddc-server
streams the ACL-filtered zip (see the previous commit), nothing held
in the browser.
- Offline (file://) mode: new browse/js/download.js walks the picked
folder with the FS-Access API in two passes — metadata first (so it
can confirm() before loading >~2000 files / ~500 MB into memory),
then bytes — bundles with the already-vendored JSZip, and triggers a
blob download. Hidden entries (".":/"_"-prefixed) are skipped, the
zip's top level is "<folderName>/…" so it unpacks tidily, and the
status bar shows progress.
Wired in browse/js/events.js (button click + show/hide alongside the
refresh button); concatenated into browse/build.sh; ARCHITECTURE.md +
AGENTS.md note the ?zip=1 endpoint and the button.

User feedback: the Grid toggle button was on every page and showed an
explanatory empty state when classifier wasn't available — adding UI
to explain why UI didn't work. Cleaner approach: drop the button,
make the URL the source of truth, and default grid mode automatically
inside the only context where it's meaningful.
Behavior:
- Inside any incoming/ path (case-insensitive segment match):
→ grid mode by default
- Everywhere else:
→ browse mode
- Explicit overrides via query string:
?view=grid forces grid (only honored where classifier is
available; otherwise falls back to browse)
?view=browse forces browse (always)
UI changes:
- The Browse/Grid pill toggle is gone.
- grid.js drops both empty-state messages; outside an incoming/
path it just does nothing.
- events.js owns resolveViewMode() / applyResolvedViewMode(),
called on initial mount and after every client-side rescope
(dblclick + popstate).

User report: project root listings showed both "Archive" (PascalCase on
disk) and "archive (empty)" (lowercase virtual) — confusing duplicates.
This sweep:
1. Test fixture migrated to lowercase canonical folder names.
tests/data/test-archive.sh now creates archive/, received/, issued/
on disk. Three projects also get human-friendly .zddc titles
("Wabash Industrial Refit — Phase 1", etc.), and Project-3 carries
a display: override demonstrating the new map. Party names
(PartyA/B/C) stay unchanged — non-canonical.
2. New .zddc display: schema. Maps a child entry's on-disk name to a
human-friendly label. The on-disk name stays canonical (lowercase
for project-root folders); only the rendered label changes. Match
is case-insensitive. Example:
display:
archive: "Records"
working: "In-Progress"
No upward cascade — a parent .zddc doesn't relabel grand-children;
each directory sets display: on its own children.
3. listing.FileInfo gets a DisplayName field. fs.ListDirectory reads
the directory's .zddc display map and stamps DisplayName per entry.
The field is omitempty so listings without overrides stay
byte-identical to before.
4. Virtual canonical project-root folders (archive/working/staging/
reviewing) are now emitted by zddc-server (fs.ListDirectory) at any
project root where the on-disk variant is absent in any case. This
replaces the client-side injection in browse and lets the display:
map apply to virtual entries the same way it applies to real ones.
Browse drops its withVirtualCanonicals helper; the loader carries
display_name through from the server's listing.
5. Archive app project picker dropdown shows the .zddc title of each
project (sourced from ProjectInfo.Title in the server's project
list), falling back to the folder name when no title is set. When
they differ, the folder name is rendered in muted mono after the
title for traceability. data-name still carries the canonical
folder name so URL state stays stable.

Hard navigation to /<path>/ lets zddc-server's auto-serve kick in for
canonical folders — /archive/ swaps in the archive tool, /staging/ the
transmittal tool, etc. — so double-clicking a canonical folder from
inside browse silently swapped the user out of browse, contrary to
what they expected.
Fix: client-side rescope. navigateIntoFolder() now fetches the new
directory listing via the loader, calls tree.setRoot() with virtual
canonicals re-applied, and pushes the new URL via history.pushState.
The page never reloads. A subsequent reload still works (browse loads
itself at the new URL since trailing-slash → ServeDirectory → embedded
browse SPA).
Side effects:
- augmentRoot (the canonical-folder injection helper) exposed via
window.app.modules so events.js can re-apply it on rescope.
- popstate handler: back/forward in the browser triggers the same
rescope path with the historic URL.
- Selection + preview reset on rescope; the previous file's preview
isn't carried into the new scope.

#5 — Double-click on a folder no longer toggles collapse.
Root cause: the single-click handler called tree.render() immediately,
which replaced the clicked row element. The browser's double-click
detection requires the second click to land on the SAME target as the
first, so dblclick never fired for folders.
Fix: defer the single-click toggle by 220ms. A pending dblclick within
the window cancels the toggle and runs navigateIntoFolder instead.
Modifier-clicks (shift/alt for recursive) and ZIP expands skip the
deferral — they're never followed by a dblclick navigation.
#3 — Browse at /<project>/ now always shows the four canonical
folders (archive, working, staging, reviewing) even when they don't
yet exist on disk. Each missing folder is synthesized client-side as
a "virtual" row: muted icon + label + "(empty)" hint, double-clickable
to navigate. zddc-server already serves an empty listing for these
paths (commit 3fc3717), so navigation into a virtual folder works
without 404 and the user lands in a sensible empty workspace.

The tree's underlying setSort API was carried forward from the old
table-with-clickable-headers UI but had no widget driving it after
the layout reshape. Adds an explicit dropdown in the toolbar:
Sort: [Name (A→Z) ▾]
[Name (Z→A) ]
[Modified (new→old) ]
[Modified (old→new) ]
[Size (large→small) ]
[Size (small→large) ]
[Type (A→Z) ]
Implementation:
- new tree.setSortExplicit(key, dir) — sets both axes in one call
(the existing tree.setSort toggles direction on repeat-clicks,
which is the right semantics for column-header clicks but wrong
for an explicit dropdown).
- events.js parses the dropdown value as "<key>:<asc|desc>" and
calls setSortExplicit. The dropdown is initialised to reflect
the current sort state on mount.

Reshape browse from "tree-as-table with popup preview" into a unified
file-experience tool with three layered behaviors:
Phase A — Two-pane shell
Phase B — Markdown plugin (Toast UI inline)
Phase C — Grid mode (classifier workflow)
Phase D — Deprecation banners on standalone classifier + mdedit
= Phase A: two-pane shell + lightweight preview plugins =
Browse's table view becomes a tree-pane on the left + preview-pane on
the right with a draggable resizer. Click a folder → expand inline.
Click a file → render in the right pane. The previous popup window
becomes an explicit "⤴ Pop out" button in the right-pane header for
users with a second monitor.
Preview rendering reuses shared/preview-lib.js (PDF iframe, image
<img>, TIFF, ZIP listing, text <pre>). Unknown types show a download
link. browse/js/preview.js refactored into renderInline (default) +
renderInPopup (Pop out button); both share the same plugin
dispatch logic.
Filter rows were already removed earlier this session. Sort columns
likewise — the tree is alphabetical by default; the underlying
setSort API still exists for future re-introduction.
= Phase B: markdown plugin =
New browse/js/preview-markdown.js: when a .md or .markdown file is
clicked, the right pane mounts a Toast UI editor (initial-value =
file contents) with a small toolbar containing Save + dirty indicator
+ status text. Save sends PUT through the file API for server-mode
files; non-server sources are read-only for now (deferred to a
follow-up that wires zddc-source.js writes too). Ctrl+S / Cmd+S
inside the editor saves.
Toast UI Editor (~700 KB JS + ~160 KB CSS) was previously bundled
only in mdedit/vendor/. Moved to shared/vendor/ so browse and mdedit
both pull from one location.
= Phase C: grid mode =
View-mode toggle [Browse | Grid] in the toolbar. Grid mode loads the
classifier tool as an iframe scoped to the current directory (server
mode at working/staging/incoming locations) — classifier's full
bulk-rename workflow without leaving browse. v1 implementation; a
future iteration could bundle classifier's modules directly into
browse for tighter integration. Hostile cases (file:// origin, paths
outside working/staging/incoming) show a friendly explanation
instead of a blank iframe.
new browse/js/grid.js handles the activation logic.
= Phase D: deprecation banners =
mdedit and classifier standalones gain a "this tool is being absorbed
into Browse" advisory banner. Both standalones remain fully
functional and continue to ship — they're useful for offline single-
file editing and air-gapped environments. The banner just points
users toward the unified browse experience.
= Files =
+ browse/js/preview-markdown.js (markdown plugin)
+ browse/js/grid.js (grid-mode plugin)
M browse/template.html (two-pane layout, view toggle, banners)
M browse/css/tree.css (two-pane CSS, replaces table styles)
M browse/js/init.js (state additions: selectedId, viewMode)
M browse/js/tree.js (rowHtml: <tr>+<td> → <div>)
M browse/js/preview.js (renderInline / renderInPopup split)
M browse/js/events.js (toggle wiring, resizer, click handlers
adapted from <table> to <div>)
M browse/build.sh (Toast UI vendor + new modules)
R mdedit/vendor/toastui-* → shared/vendor/ (one bundle, two tools)
M mdedit/build.sh (paths)
M mdedit/template.html (deprecation banner)
M classifier/template.html (deprecation banner)
M tests/browse.spec.js (selectors updated for new layout +
new "click file → preview" test)
Bundle sizes after this commit:
browse: ~1020 KB (was ~290 KB; added Toast UI ~700 KB)
classifier: ~1470 KB (unchanged from prior baseline)
mdedit: ~2140 KB (unchanged; vendor location moved but not added)
What's deferred:
- TOC + front-matter pane in browse's markdown plugin (mdedit has
these; browse v1 uses just the editor).
- FS-API writes from browse's markdown plugin (server PUT works).
- Classifier modules bundled directly into browse (v1 uses iframe).
- Sort UI in the new tree (model still supports it; no widget yet).

The two filter rows (📄 file/ext + 📁 folder) didn't really earn their
header real estate. Browse is for navigating directory structure;
ad-hoc filters across a tree of mixed file types and depths weren't
the right affordance, and the visual weight competed with the column
headers and the breadcrumb. Removed entirely:
- template.html: dropped both <tr class="filter-row"> rows in <thead>,
the related "Filter rows" help section, and the empty-state copy
that mentioned the 📄/📁 rows.
- init.js: dropped state.filters (file/folder/ext slots).
- events.js: dropped the .column-filter[data-filter] input wiring.
- tree.js: dropped recomputeVisibility() and the n.visible plumbing
in visibleIds() and updateCount(). Render is now a straight depth-
first walk over expanded subtrees; the count is just total rows.
setFilter is removed from the public API.
- css/tree.css: dropped .filter-row*, .filter-row__icon, and the
browse-local .column-filter rules (.column-filter is also defined
in shared/base.css for tools that still use it; that stays).
No test changes — tests/browse.spec.js never exercised filters.

Single-click still expands the folder inline; double-click swaps the
view's root onto the folder. In server mode it loads the folder's URL
(zddc-server returns a fresh browse instance scoped there); in FS-API
mode it re-roots state.rootHandle onto the folder's handle and re-
enumerates. Files and zips are unchanged — files have a single-click
preview, zips have inline JSZip expansion.
Help panel updated to document the new behavior.

- Vendor JSZip locally (shared/vendor/jszip.min.js) and bundle into
the browse build instead of CDN-loading. Eliminates the failure
mode where ZIP rows can't expand because the CDN script doesn't
load (CSP, network, etc.). Tool now works fully offline.
- Replace the toolbar filter input + ext multi-select with two
spreadsheet-style auto-filter rows in <thead>:
- 📄 row: file-name filter + extension filter
- 📁 row: folder-name filter
Each input uses shared/zddc-filter syntax (substring/!negate/
^startsWith/$endsWith/regex/| or/space and).
- New visibility model with ancestor-of-match awareness:
- file matches keep their ancestor folders visible (path-to-hit)
- folder match keeps its descendants visible
- filters compose (file ∧ folder ∧ ext) so combinations narrow
Computed model-side; render walks only visible nodes.
- Replace 🏠 emoji breadcrumb-root with an inline outline-stroke SVG
that tints with currentColor.
Bundles Phase 2 polish + the user-requested header/breadcrumb work:
- Breadcrumbs replacing the plain currentPath span. Server mode
renders linkified ancestor segments (each <a> navigates to that
directory; the browser fetches browse.html, the new instance
auto-loads the listing). FS-API mode renders the rootHandle name
as a non-link (no ancestor handles to navigate). Both prefix the
path with a 🏠 root icon. Trailing slash + bold-current segment
match common file-explorer conventions.
- Subdued 'Select Directory' button in server mode. Once browse is
serving a real directory listing, the local-folder switcher is
available but visually quiet (btn--subtle: transparent, muted
color). FS-API mode keeps the primary styling (it's how the user
got there). New btn--subtle CSS class added to browse's tree.css.
A refresh button (⟳) appears next to it in both modes; clicking
it re-fetches the current root listing.
- Header consistency: browse now matches archive's header layout
(refresh + help buttons in addition to theme on the right). Help
is a placeholder for future help dialog wiring.
- File preview popup. Click a file row → opens a popup window with
the file rendered. Plain types (PDF, HTML, image) load in
iframes; TIFF + ZIP listings via shared/preview-lib.js's
renderTiff / renderZipListing helpers; text via <pre>; unknown
types → 'click Download' placeholder. Modifier-click (ctrl/cmd/
shift) and middle-click still open the file in a new tab via the
underlying <a target=_blank>. Single popup window is reused
across multiple file clicks (matches archive's UX).
- ZIP inline expansion. .zip files have a chevron and act like
folders in the tree. First expand fetches the zip bytes
(server URL or FS handle or parent-zip read), parses with JSZip
(auto-loaded from CDN), and synthesizes the entry tree. Nested
directories within the zip lazy-expand on demand by re-walking
the cached entry list at the right path prefix. Click on a
zip-entry file opens the preview popup with bytes read from
JSZip. Recursive expand-all skips zip archives by design — they
can be very large, and explicit click-to-expand is safer.
- Extension multi-select filter. Toolbar now has a <select
multiple> populated with extensions present in the current
view. Filter is OR-of-selected; combined with the name filter
it's AND-of-both. Folders pass through (so expanding a folder
whose name doesn't match the ext filter still shows its file
children that do match).
Three issues from initial v0.0.12 dev/prod testing:
1. Online listings empty.
directory.go was missing Vary: Accept on its responses, so
browser/CDN cached the HTML response (the embedded browse.html)
and served it again when browse's JS later fetched the same URL
with Accept: application/json. JSON parse failed, autoDetect
returned null, empty state showed. Adds Vary: Accept on both
branches and changes browse.html cache-control to no-cache so
deployed updates land immediately.
2. Top-level folder rows tall, shrink as subtree expands.
The .browse-table had flex:1 in a flex column. <table> in flex
doesn't reliably distribute height across rows — with few rows,
each row stretched. Wrap the table in a div with overflow:auto
and drop flex:1 from the table itself.
3. Recursive expand/collapse.
Shift-click (or alt-click) on a folder now expand-all or
collapse-all its subtree. Plain click still toggles just that
folder. Implementation: tree.expandSubtree() walks BFS, loading
each level's children in parallel, re-rendering between levels
so the user sees progress. tree.collapseSubtree() recursively
marks the subtree collapsed (children stay loaded for instant
re-expand).
A new HTML tool — browse — that lists the contents of any directory.
Designed for ZDDC archives but no ZDDC-specific filtering; just a
straight folder browser with expand/collapse, sort, and name filter.
Modes (auto-detected at page load):
- Online: when served by zddc-server at a folder URL, queries
the same URL with Accept: application/json to load the listing
and renders it. Auto-served as the default at any directory
under ZDDC_ROOT without an index.html (replacing the previous
minimal-HTML stub from directory.go).
- Local: 'Select Directory' button uses FileSystemAccessAPI to
pick any folder on disk; works in Chromium-based browsers.
Features (Phase 1 — what's in this commit):
- Tree view with lazy-loaded folders (children fetched on first
expand).
- Sort by name / size / extension / date (column header click).
- Filter by name substring (toolbar input).
- File click opens in a new tab — for server-backed pages,
routes through zddc-server's normal handler so .archive
redirects + apps cascade overrides + ACL all apply.
Phase 2 deferred:
- ZIP files inline expansion (treat archive entries as virtual
children).
- File preview popup (reuse shared/preview-lib.js).
- Extension multi-select filter.
Wiring:
- browse/ added to top-level ./build's per-tool list, embed
block, versions.txt, and the lockstep release commit + tag set.
All seven tools (archive, transmittal, classifier, mdedit,
landing, form, browse) advance together on stable cuts.
- shared/build-lib.sh: browse added to ZDDC_RELEASE_TOOLS and
verify_channel_links's per-tool loop.
- zddc/internal/apps/embed.go: //go:embed browse.html +
EmbeddedBytes("browse") case.
- zddc/internal/apps/availability.go: browse available at every
directory (same as archive).
- zddc/internal/apps/handler.go: MatchAppHTML routes
/<dir>/browse.html → 'browse'.
- zddc/internal/handler/directory.go: when a directory request
arrives with Accept: text/html and no index.html exists,
serve the embedded browse.html bytes (with a JSON-fallback
if the embedded slot is empty during bootstrap).
