flemming-it 34f2b7b313 feat(studio): typed flow outputs + on-disk docs + UX polish
Documentation system (the original "whole docs system is broken"
complaint):
- Studio reads inline docs from disk via the new
  getInstalledModuleDocs RPC. No network, no auth, no provider
  lock-in.
- store.dart probes for MODULE.md eagerly when a module-detail
  sheet opens (a single file stat). The Documentation section
  only renders when the bundle actually shipped docs.
- Shared FaiTheme.markdownStyle helper used by Welcome's
  DocReaderSheet and Store's DocsPanel so every inline doc
  reads in the same typography. The shared style forces
  code.backgroundColor = transparent to suppress the per-span
  bands flutter_markdown's default code style draws on dark
  themes.

Flow run dialog:
- Run-button gating now strips the @version suffix from
  installed capabilities before the contains() check. Without
  this fix the button stayed disabled for every flow with
  dependencies, even after a successful install.
- Studio derives a MIME type from the picked file's extension
  (small per-suffix map; .pdf, .docx, .txt, .json, ...) and
  forwards it to the hub. Fixes "unsupported MIME type:
  application/octet-stream" from text.extract.
- Dialog title tracks the future's state: running -> "extract
  laeuft", success -> "extract -- Ergebnis", failure ->
  "extract -- fehlgeschlagen".
- Output rendering moved from String stringification to a
  sealed FlowOutput type (Text / Json / Bytes / File / Unknown).
  A new FaiFlowOutput widget dispatches per variant: markdown
  for text/markdown (heuristic), pretty JSON for proto Struct,
  inline image preview + Save-As for bytes, Open for file URIs.

Byte sizes:
- New humanBytes() helper renders 23.3 kB / 1.04 MB style values
  with three significant digits, matching Finder / GNOME Files.
  Wired into flow-card pills, picked-file readouts, and the
  bytes-payload preview line.

F∆I Studio

Desktop GUI client for the F∆I Platform hub. Tier-2 generic platform client per docs/architecture/client.md. Connects to a local or remote fai serve over gRPC.

Status (2026-05-05): MVP scaffold. Three pages with mock data, no live gRPC connection yet. Validates the visual direction before the Dart SDK is wired in.

Pages (MVP scope)

  1. Modules — installed modules, capabilities, declared permissions. Click → manifest detail.
  2. Audit — live stream of hub events (when wired). Filter by event type and flow.
  3. Approvals — pending system.approval@^0 reviews with approve / reject buttons.

These three cover the platform's central properties: composition (modules), audit (events), human-in-the-loop (approvals).

Stack

  • Flutter 3.40+ (Desktop: macOS, Linux, Windows)
  • gRPC client via fai_dart_sdk (sibling repo; pinned by relative path during development)
  • No external runtime dependencies; bundles its own Dart VM

Run locally

flutter run -d macos

Repo placement

Will be published as fai/studio on Forgejo (git.flemming.ws). The local directory fai_studio/ follows the established fai_platform/ layout convention.

Why "Studio" and not "Stage"

"Stage" collided too easily with "staging environment" in developer English. "Studio" is the established industry pattern for creator-tools (Visual Studio, Android Studio, RStudio) and matches the GUI's audience of module developers, operators, and power users. The rename was applied across all docs/ in the platform repo on 2026-05-05.
