flemming-it b0f09260e1 fix(studio): store overflow + visual clutter (v0.31.1)
Two issues from the user feedback after v0.31.0:

1. RenderFlex overflow in the store body. The inner Column
   wrapped the editorial chrome (Today, Recommended,
   Featured) plus an Expanded grid; on small windows the
   chrome alone exceeded the available height and the grid
   got squeezed past zero, painting the yellow-and-black
   stripe.

   Fix: wrap the inner Column in a SingleChildScrollView so
   chrome and grid scroll as one continuous surface
   (App-Store / Play-Store behaviour). The grid switches to
   `shrinkWrap: true` + `NeverScrollableScrollPhysics()` so
   it doesn't try to claim its own viewport.

2. "Der Store ist zu unaufgeräumt, ich fühle mich
   erschlagen." — three editorial cards stacked above the
   filter row + grid was too much.

   Visual cleanup:
   - The recommended-source quick-add chips are now inlined
     into the Today hero's footer (same row as the CTA).
     The standalone `_RecommendedSourcesStrip` only fires in
     the corner case where Today is dismissed AND no
     federation exists yet.
   - The Featured strip no longer competes with Today —
     it only renders once Today has been dismissed. Today
     plays the editorial-hero role; Featured is the
     fallback editorial surface.
   - Provenance pill ("native") is dropped on native cards.
     Native is the default and doesn't earn a badge — only
     foreign code (mcp / n8n) gets the provenance pill, the
     same way "verified" is opt-in in commercial app stores.

Net: at most one editorial card above the grid at any time.

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.
