Vendor CodeMirror's show-hint add-on and wire deterministic, schema-driven
completion into the markdown front-matter pane — NO heuristics, no AI; every
candidate comes from the converter's own field list.
- Vendor codemirror-show-hint.min.{js,css} (CM 5.65.x add-on); concat in
browse/build.sh after the core CM bundle so it extends window.CodeMirror.
- Server: add a structured `values` enum to convert.FrontMatterField (doctype →
report/letter/specification, numbering → true/false), exposed via the existing
/.api/frontmatter JSON. Tracks the template set; keeps the server as the
single source of truth instead of parsing the hint prose.
- Client: frontMatterHints() completes recognised KEYS at line start (excluding
the filename-driven identity keys and keys already present) and enum VALUES
after `key:`. Picking an enum key auto-opens its value list. Triggered on
Ctrl-Space and automatically as you type (completeSingle:false — always a
menu, never an auto-guess). Themed dropdown for dark mode.

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:
-
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_ROOTthat doesn't have anindex.html— the JS queries the same URL withAccept: application/jsonto load the directory's listing and renders it as a sortable, filterable table. -
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
.archiveredirect, an apps cascade override, etc. all work as expected).
Design notes
- No ZDDC-specific filtering. This tool is intentionally
domain-agnostic. The companion
archivetool layers ZDDC parsing (project / status / revision filters, tracking-number resolution) on top of the same listing API. Usearchivewhen you want ZDDC semantics; usebrowsewhen you just want to see what's in a folder. - Default at directory URLs. zddc-server's
directory.goserves the embedded browse.html bytes for any directory request withAccept: text/htmland noindex.htmlpresent. This means a user navigating to any folder underZDDC_ROOTgets a usable browser without anyone having to drop a file into the archive. - Apps cascade override. Like every other ZDDC tool, the
served
browse.htmlcan 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.
