The /incoming/ path regex in browse/js/grid.js was the second-most
visible client-side hardcode of the canonical convention. Migrating
it to the cascade:
Header surface:
X-ZDDC-Default-Tool: <name> The cascade-resolved default tool
for the listing's directory. Empty
header = no default declared.
Client wiring:
loader.fetchServerChildren reads the header into
state.scopeDefaultTool on every listing fetch (initial mount,
rescope on dblclick, popstate). grid.classifierAvailableHere
now returns scopeDefaultTool === 'classifier' instead of
regex-matching the URL.
Effect:
Grid mode auto-activates wherever the cascade picks classifier
as the default — currently archive/<party>/incoming per
defaults.zddc.yaml. An operator who sets default_tool: classifier
on a custom directory gets grid mode there too, no code change.
An operator who removes the default at incoming sees grid mode
stop auto-activating there.
Bootstrap timing fix:
The initial events.init() runs applyResolvedViewMode before the
detection fetch completes, so state.scopeDefaultTool is empty
at that point and grid never auto-activates on first paint.
app.js bootstrap now re-applies the resolved view mode after
autoDetectServerMode returns, so a fresh /incoming URL lands
on grid mode immediately.
The /incoming/ regex is gone. Two client hardcodes remaining
(archive source heuristics, shared/nav stage strip) — Phase 4c/d.
