Adds internal/apps/ package serving the five tool HTMLs at virtual paths
based on the surrounding folder name convention:
archive every directory (multi-project, project, archive, vendor)
classifier any Incoming/Working/Staging directory and subtree
mdedit any Working directory and subtree
transmittal any Staging directory and subtree
landing only at deployment root
The current-stable build of every tool is //go:embed'd into the binary
at compile time — that's the default with zero config. Operators
override per-directory via .zddc apps: entries; closer-to-leaf wins.
Spec syntax (in any apps: value):
stable / beta / alpha / :stable channel
v0.0.4 / v0.0 / v0 / :v0.0.4 version
https://my-mirror/releases URL prefix only
https://my-mirror/releases:beta URL prefix + channel
https://my-fork/archive.html terminal full URL
./local.html / /abs/path.html terminal local path
The special apps.default key provides a baseline URL prefix and channel
inherited by any app not overridden per-name. Per-axis cascade: a deeper
.zddc can override the URL, the channel, or both.
Cascade walks root→leaf; default applies first at each level, then the
per-app entry. Terminal sources (paths and full .html URLs) short-circuit
composition; deeper non-terminal entries override parent terminals.
URL sources fetch once on first request and cache forever in
<ZDDC_ROOT>/_app/<host>/<path> — different upstreams with the same
filename stay distinct. No background refresh, no SHA-256 verification:
operators delete the cache file to force a refetch. Concurrent misses
for the same source dedupe via a 30-line hand-rolled singleflight.
Per-request override: any user can append ?v=<spec> to a tool URL
(e.g. ?v=beta, ?v=v0.0.4, ?v=:alpha, ?v=https://mirror/releases:beta)
to ask for a different build for one request. Security: ?v= serves
ONLY versions already in the cache (cache miss returns 404; path
sources are rejected outright with 400). Users cannot trigger
arbitrary upstream fetches via crafted URLs.
Failed URL fetches (network down, 5xx) fall back to embedded with a
one-time WARN log. The X-ZDDC-Source response header reports what
served: fetch:URL / cache:URL / path:/abs / embedded:<app>@<build>.
Wire-in (cmd/zddc-server/main.go): dispatch routes <dir>/<app>.html
through apps.MatchAppHTML + AppAvailableAt + apps.Server.Serve when
no real file exists. Direct URL access to /_app/... is blocked at
the dispatch layer — cached files must go through the apps resolver
so they get correct Content-Type and ACL gating.
Schema (internal/zddc/file.go): ZddcFile gains Apps map[string]string
for cascade overrides. Validator (internal/zddc/validate.go) accepts
the special "default" key alongside the five canonical app names and
all spec forms.
Removes ZDDC_APPS_* env vars (no admin UI, no refresh interval, no
upstream allow-list — the simpler model has fewer knobs).
40+ unit tests across the new package: parser shapes, cascade
resolution with default+per-app interactions, terminal short-circuit
semantics, ?v= cache-only enforcement, embedded fallback, atomic
cache writes, singleflight dedup. Plus end-to-end dispatch tests in
cmd/zddc-server/main_test.go.
