mdedit/ is gone. Its functionality moved into browse's preview plugin
(browse/js/preview-markdown.js) — YAML front matter editing, outline,
and on-demand DOCX/HTML/PDF download all happen there. Browse is the
default_tool for working/ + reviewing/ as of the previous commit, so
existing URLs of the form /<project>/working land on browse without
operator action.
Removed:
• mdedit/ source tree (Toast UI app, CSS, JS, template, build.sh)
• zddc/internal/apps/embedded/mdedit.html (//go:embed blob)
• tests/mdedit.spec.js + the "mdedit" project in playwright.config.js
• mdedit entries in zddc/internal/apps/embed.go (//go:embed, var,
switch case in EmbeddedBytes)
• "mdedit" in zddc/internal/zddc/validate.go AppNames + the matching
error-message app list
• "mdedit.html" branch in zddc/internal/apps/handler.go MatchAppHTML
• mdedit case in tests (handler_test.go, validate_test.go,
zddchandler_test.go) — test fixtures now use browse/classifier
• mdedit from build (per-tool build.sh loop, tool-list literals,
composer cards) and shared/build-lib.sh ZDDC_RELEASE_TOOLS
• mdedit from freshen-channel's tool list and usage banner
• mdedit-specific paragraphs in AGENTS.md and ARCHITECTURE.md;
Markdown Editor section in ARCHITECTURE.md rewritten to point at
browse/js/preview-markdown.js
• mdedit from CLAUDE.md, README.md, zddc/README.md tool lists
Historical mdedit_v*.html / mdedit_v*.html.sig files in
/srv/zddc/releases/ on the deploy host are immutable history — they
stay where they are. The next ./build release cut will simply not
produce new mdedit_v* artifacts.
Final consumer migration. The Go-coded lists that previously encoded
the ZDDC convention all defer to the .zddc cascade now.
Schema added:
available_tools: [tool1, tool2, ...] concat-union across cascade;
tools not in the union are
denied auto-route at that path
auto_own_fenced: true|false generated auto-own .zddc
carries inherit:false (private
to creator)
Lookups added:
AvailableToolsAt(root, dir) union of available_tools across cascade
IsToolAvailableAt(root, dir, tool)
AutoOwnFencedAt(root, dir) leaf-only
Cascade semantics finalised (per field):
default_tool → leaf→root walk (parent applies to descendants)
available_tools → leaf→root union (each level adds; baseline at root)
auto_own → leaf-only (creating THIS dir specifically)
auto_own_fenced → leaf-only (same)
virtual → leaf-only (THIS dir is virtual, not subtree)
Consumers migrated:
apps.DefaultAppAt → zddc.DefaultToolAt
apps.AppAvailableAt → zddc.IsToolAvailableAt (+ landing special)
EnsureCanonicalAncestors → AutoOwnAt + AutoOwnFencedAt
fs.ListDirectory empty-list fallback → zddc.IsDeclaredPath
fs.virtualCanonicalFolders → zddc.ChildrenDeclaredAt
dispatcher canonical-folder branches → unified into one
cascade-declared block
Hardcoded helpers REMOVED (dead code):
apps.inAncestorWithName
zddc.autoOwnDepthMatch / isAutoOwnDepthMatch
Hardcoded lists kept as data sources for the cascade walker but
no longer drive routing logic:
ProjectRootFolders / PartyFolders / AutoOwnCanonicalNames /
VirtualOnlyCanonicalNames / IsProjectRootFolder / IsArchivePartyFolder /
IsArchivePartyMdlDir — all still defined; only `ProjectRootFolders`
is used by special.go's IsProjectRootFolder. The rest are dead.
Dispatcher unified: the previously-two branches (per-party folder vs
project-root folder) collapse into one cascade-declared-path block
that handles the slash/no-slash convention uniformly:
- no-slash, default_tool=tables → ServeTable (default-MDL fallback)
- no-slash, default_tool set → apps.Serve(tool)
- no-slash, no default_tool → 302 to slash form
- slash, any → ServeDirectory empty-list fallback
The IsDir branch's switch also un-hardcoded — any cascade tool is
served (not just the legacy 3 names), so e.g. /Project/archive/<party>
/incoming (no slash) now serves classifier directly rather than 302'ing
to the slash form.
defaults.zddc.yaml populated with the canonical convention as the
recipe. Operators edit it (or override per-directory on disk) to
change any behaviour — no Go code changes required.
Browse drag-drop scope (working/staging/incoming) is the one remaining
client-side hardcoded regex; cascading that requires the cascade JSON
to be served to the client, which is its own Phase 4 piece.
Tests updated for the new no-slash mdl URL convention (landing MDL
card test) and no-slash stage URLs (nav strip test). All 248
Playwright + all Go tests green.

Adds a thin nav strip directly under the app-header showing the four
canonical lifecycle stages from the transmittal-workflow spec:
archive · working · staging · reviewing. Each is a link to that
stage's directory under the current project. Current stage is
highlighted (bold + primary color, aria-current="page"). Strip
mounts as a sibling of .app-header on DOMContentLoaded — no
template changes needed in any tool.
Render rules (shared/nav.js shouldRender):
- location.protocol must be http: or https: (file:// has no project
structure to navigate within)
- a project segment must be detectable as the first path segment
(when it isn't a tool HTML file like /index.html or
/archive.html?projects=A,B). Multi-project view at the deployment
root therefore shows no strip.
Stage URL targets:
- Archive → <project>/archive.html (project-root archive view)
- Working → <project>/working/ (directory listing — mdedit auto-served)
- Staging → <project>/staging/ (directory listing — transmittal auto-served)
- Reviewing → <project>/reviewing/ (directory listing)
Convention-driven, not probed: if a deployment doesn't have one of
these folders the link returns 404. Operators on non-standard layouts
can opt out by setting window.zddc.nav.disabled = true before
DOMContentLoaded.
This pairs with the previous landing-tool change (single-project
click → <project>/archive.html). Together they give the user
both URL-bar manipulation AND visible navigation across the four
canonical project stages.
Five Playwright tests in tests/nav.spec.js exercise:
- non-render at deployment root
- render + active stage on <project>/archive.html
- render + active stage deep inside <project>/working/foo/mdedit.html
- canonical link targets
- mount position is sibling of .app-header
