ZDDC ef849ab3fa feat(shared): replace floating elevation toggle with a header profile menu
Drop the bottom-right floating "Admin mode" switch in favour of a proper
account menu in the header's upper-right (every tool's .header-right).

New shared/profile-menu.{js,css}: a circular avatar button (email initial)
opening a dropdown with the signed-in email, an "Admin mode" item (only for
can_elevate principals — drives elevation.setOn/setOff, drops on leave),
Profile (/.profile), and Access tokens (/.tokens). The panel is portaled to
<body> + position:fixed so it overlays content reliably regardless of the
app's stacking contexts; the button shows a red ring while elevated.

No logout: authentication is the upstream proxy's concern (oauth2-proxy /
Authelia) — ZDDC owns no session, so the menu doesn't render sign-out.

elevation.js keeps the state machine (cookie, armed banner/frame, ephemeral
pagehide-clear, zddc:elevationchange, ?admin= URL) but no longer renders any
control — the profile menu is the UI. elevation.css drops the floating-
toggle styles (keeps banner + frame). All 7 templates drop the dead
elevation-toggle placeholder; all 7 build.sh bundle profile-menu.{js,css}.

Validated in a containerized browser: menu items, links, elevation arming +
armed ring, dropdown overlays content, no floating toggle.

browse — directory listing tool

Generic file browser for any directory. Designed to work with ZDDC archives but useful for any folder. Single-file HTML, no install.

How it's used

Two modes, auto-detected at page load:

  1. Online (zddc-server backed). When this HTML is served by zddc-server at a folder URL — which it is by default for any directory under ZDDC_ROOT that doesn't have an index.html — the JS queries the same URL with Accept: application/json to load the directory's listing and renders it as a sortable, filterable table.

  2. Local (FileSystemAccessAPI). Click "Select Directory" in the header to pick any folder on your computer. Works in Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, etc.). No server required; the directory is read directly from disk.

What it does

  • Lists files and folders with name, size, type (extension), and modified date.
  • Click a folder to expand inline. Children load lazily on first expand.
  • Click a column header to sort by that column. Click again to reverse.
  • Type in the filter to narrow to entries whose name contains the substring.
  • Click any file to open it in a new tab — for server-backed pages, this routes through zddc-server's normal handler (so an .archive redirect, an apps cascade override, etc. all work as expected).

Design notes

  • No ZDDC-specific filtering. This tool is intentionally domain-agnostic. The companion archive tool layers ZDDC parsing (project / status / revision filters, tracking-number resolution) on top of the same listing API. Use archive when you want ZDDC semantics; use browse when you just want to see what's in a folder.
  • Default at directory URLs. zddc-server's directory.go serves the embedded browse.html bytes for any directory request with Accept: text/html and no index.html present. This means a user navigating to any folder under ZDDC_ROOT gets a usable browser without anyone having to drop a file into the archive.
  • Apps cascade override. Like every other ZDDC tool, the served browse.html can be overridden per-folder via a .zddc apps: entry. The default is the embedded copy from the binary; operators can pin a specific version or URL if they want.
