Second slice of the Welcome surface. Operator-facing
documentation now lives inside Studio as bundled assets and
renders inline via a modal sheet — no browser, no external
link, air-gap-tauglich.
- Four operator-readable explainers under `assets/docs/`,
each with an EN + DE pair:
architecture[_de].md — Hub / Module / Flow + how they fit
security[_de].md — sandbox model, declared perms,
operator ceiling
audit[_de].md — hash-chained log, WORM-1 mechanics,
`fai admin verify-events`
flows[_de].md — flow YAML, templating reference,
extract→summarize example
These are short (≈ 300-500 words each), operator-shaped
prose. Not copies of the architecture docs in
fai_platform/docs/architecture/ — those are
contributor-dense.
- pubspec.yaml declares `assets/docs/` so the markdown ships
inside the Studio binary. Air-gap deployments read them
with no network access.
- New `_DocReaderSheet` modal: 85 %-of-viewport bottom sheet,
drag handle + title bar with the doc icon and close button,
scrollable Markdown body styled to match Studio chrome.
Loads `assets/docs/<slug>_<locale>.md` first, falls back to
the EN file. Locale comes from
`Localizations.localeOf(context)`.
- `_DocsRow` on the Welcome page sits below the trust-posture
deck. Two-column grid on ≥ 640 dp, single column below.
Each card is icon + title + one-line blurb + chevron;
click opens the reader sheet for that slug.
- 12 new ARB keys for the docs section (header, blurb, four
card titles + blurbs, close button, error message).
- 4 new icons reused: `account_tree_outlined` (architecture),
`shield_outlined` (security), `verified_outlined` (audit),
`alt_route_outlined` (flows).
Implements Phase B of `docs/landing-page-design.md`. Phase C
(live getting-started checklist with persistent state) is the
last remaining slice.

Sandbox model
Every F∆I module runs inside a WebAssembly sandbox with no
ambient access to the host. The module can do exactly what it
declares in its module.yaml — and nothing else.
What a module declares
permissions:
- net: api.openai.com # outbound HTTPS only
- net: 127.0.0.1:11434 # local Ollama
- fs.read: /var/lib/fai/in # read-only directory
- fs.write: /var/lib/fai/out # writable directory
- env: OPENAI_API_KEY # one specific env var
- hub: invoke # call other modules
Anything not on this list is impossible at runtime. A module
that forgets to ask for net: cannot reach the network at all.
The hub's WasiCtxBuilder wires only the declared preopens
and env vars — there is no escape hatch.
What the operator controls
Operators add their own ceiling on top in ~/.fai/config.yaml:
security:
module_allowlist: # only these modules may load
- "text.*"
module_denylist: # never load these
- "experimental.*"
max_permissions: # cap requests per scope
net: ["api.openai.com"]
fs.read: ["/var/lib/fai"]
require_signatures: true # reject unsigned bundles
require_sbom: true # reject bundles without CycloneDX
Modules whose declared permissions exceed the operator's ceiling fail to load with an explicit error. The operator ceiling is the second gate; the module's own declaration is the first.
What you'll see in this app
- The Store detail sheet for an installed module shows
the declared permissions list with icons (
net:globe,fs.read:folder,fs.write:edit,env:terminal). - The Doctor page summary tile shows total module count and capability count.
- A flow run that violates a permission fails with a
named error (
PermissionDenied: net:example.com) in the audit log — visible on the Audit page.
What we don't have
- No process-level isolation between modules. They all run inside one hub process. A WASM trap escalates to a flow-step failure, not a hub crash, but heap exhaustion in one module can pressure the others. Pooled instance mode is on the roadmap.
- No live policy backend (OPA-style runtime decisions). Permission lists are static at module-load time. Customer -driven; deferred until a real deployment needs it.
