flemming-it 69b54629d3 chore(studio): flutter_markdown_plus migration + integration-test scaffold
Two follow-ups to the May-2026 trust pass.

flutter_markdown_plus migration:

- pubspec swaps `flutter_markdown ^0.7.7` (discontinued
  upstream) for `flutter_markdown_plus ^1.0.3`, the
  actively-maintained fork. API surface
  (MarkdownStyleSheet, Markdown, MarkdownBody) is
  unchanged — the four import sites in welcome, store,
  flow_output, and theme.dart get an updated package
  string and that's it.
- All Studio analyzer + unit-test suites stay green.

Integration test scaffold:

- New `test/integration/hub_fixture.dart` boots a real
  `fai serve` subprocess on a free port against a temp
  FAI_DATA_DIR, polls until Healthy, exposes a ready
  HubClient. Idempotent teardown wipes the temp dir.
- Resolves the `fai` binary from PATH first, then from
  `../fai_platform/target/release/fai`. When neither
  exists, the fixture calls `markTestSkipped` with a
  clear message — fresh checkouts don't fail.
- One canonical test in `capabilities_test.dart` asserts
  on the bug class the May trust pass surfaced: that
  `system.approval` appears in `list_capabilities` with
  `kind=builtin` so Studio's missing-deps check never
  tries to install it. Plus a contract-shape test that
  every cap's `kind` is one of the three known wire
  values.
- README documents the cold-start gotcha (first
  `fai serve` per machine takes ~30s to build the
  curated-model DB) plus the manual warmup recipe.

Not in CI yet — wiring needs the platform build job to
publish `fai` as a CI artifact for downstream consumption.
Deferred until enough integration tests exist to justify
the CI minutes.

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.
