• ## What's new
    
    Plug-ins can now contribute workflow task handlers to the framework.
    The P2.1 `TaskHandlerRegistry` only saw `@Component` TaskHandler beans
    from the host Spring context; handlers defined inside a PF4J plug-in
    were invisible because the plug-in's child classloader is not in the
    host's bean list. This commit closes that gap.
    
    ## Mechanism
    
    ### api.v1
    
    - New interface `org.vibeerp.api.v1.workflow.PluginTaskHandlerRegistrar`
      with a single `register(handler: TaskHandler)` method. Plug-ins call
      it from inside their `start(context)` lambda.
    - `PluginContext.taskHandlers: PluginTaskHandlerRegistrar` — added as
      a new optional member with a default implementation that throws
      `UnsupportedOperationException("upgrade to v0.7 or later")`, so
      pre-existing plug-in jars remain binary-compatible with the new
      host and a plug-in built against v0.7 of the api-v1 surface fails
      fast on an old host instead of silently doing nothing. Same
      pattern we used for `endpoints` and `jdbc`.
    
    ### platform-workflow
    
    - `TaskHandlerRegistry` gains owner tagging. Every registered handler
      now carries an `ownerId`: core `@Component` beans get
      `TaskHandlerRegistry.OWNER_CORE = "core"` (auto-assigned through
      the constructor-injection path), plug-in-contributed handlers get
      their PF4J plug-in id. New API:
      * `register(handler, ownerId = OWNER_CORE)` (default keeps existing
        call sites unchanged)
      * `unregisterAllByOwner(ownerId): Int` — strip every handler owned
        by that id in one call, returns the count for log correlation
      * The duplicate-key error message now includes both owners so a
        plug-in trying to stomp on a core handler gets an actionable
        "already registered by X (owner='core'), attempted by Y
        (owner='printing-shop')" instead of "already registered".
      * Internal storage switched from `ConcurrentHashMap<String, TaskHandler>`
        to `ConcurrentHashMap<String, Entry>` where `Entry` carries
        `(handler, ownerId)`. `find(key)` still returns `TaskHandler?`
        so the dispatcher is unchanged.
    - No behavioral change for the hot-path (`DispatchingJavaDelegate`) —
      only the registration/teardown paths changed.
    
    ### platform-plugins
    
    - New dependency on `:platform:platform-workflow` (the only new inter-
      module dep of this chunk; it is the module that exposes
      `TaskHandlerRegistry`).
    - New internal class `ScopedTaskHandlerRegistrar(hostRegistry, pluginId)`
      that implements the api.v1 `PluginTaskHandlerRegistrar` by delegating
      `register(handler)` to `hostRegistry.register(handler, ownerId =
      pluginId)`. Constructed fresh per plug-in by `VibeErpPluginManager`,
      so the plug-in never sees (or can tamper with) the owner id.
    - `DefaultPluginContext` gains a `scopedTaskHandlers` constructor
      parameter and exposes it as the `PluginContext.taskHandlers`
      override.
    - `VibeErpPluginManager`:
      * injects `TaskHandlerRegistry`
      * constructs `ScopedTaskHandlerRegistrar(registry, pluginId)` per
        plug-in when building `DefaultPluginContext`
      * partial-start failure now also calls
        `taskHandlerRegistry.unregisterAllByOwner(pluginId)`, matching
        the existing `endpointRegistry.unregisterAll(pluginId)` cleanup
        so a throwing `start(context)` cannot leave stale registrations
      * `destroy()` calls the same `unregisterAllByOwner` for every
        started plug-in in reverse order, mirroring the endpoint cleanup
    
    ### reference-customer/plugin-printing-shop
    
    - New file `workflow/PlateApprovalTaskHandler.kt` — the first plug-in-
      contributed TaskHandler in the framework. Key
      `printing_shop.plate.approve`. Reads a `plateId` process variable,
      writes `plateApproved`, `plateId`, `approvedBy` (principal label),
      `approvedAt` (ISO instant) and exits. No DB mutation yet: a proper
      plate-approval handler would UPDATE `plugin_printingshop__plate` via
      `context.jdbc`, but that requires handing the TaskHandler a
      projection of the PluginContext — a deliberate non-goal of this
      chunk, deferred to the "handler context" follow-up.
    - `PrintingShopPlugin.start(context)` now ends with
      `context.taskHandlers.register(PlateApprovalTaskHandler())` and logs
      the registration.
    - Package layout: `org.vibeerp.reference.printingshop.workflow` is
      the plug-in's workflow namespace going forward (the next printing-
      shop handlers for REF.1 — quote-to-job-card, job-card-to-work-order
      — will live alongside).
    
    ## Smoke test (fresh DB, plug-in staged)
    
    ```
    $ docker compose down -v && docker compose up -d db
    $ ./gradlew :distribution:bootRun &
    ...
    TaskHandlerRegistry initialised with 1 core TaskHandler bean(s): [vibeerp.workflow.ping]
    ...
    plug-in 'printing-shop' Liquibase migrations applied successfully
    vibe_erp plug-in loaded: id=printing-shop version=0.1.0-SNAPSHOT state=STARTED

    $ curl /api/v1/workflow/handlers (as admin)
    {
      "count": 2,
      "keys": ["printing_shop.plate.approve", "vibeerp.workflow.ping"]
    }
    
    $ curl /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/ping  # plug-in HTTP still works
    {"plugin":"printing-shop","ok":true,"version":"0.1.0-SNAPSHOT", ...}
    
    $ curl -X POST /api/v1/workflow/process-instances
             {"processDefinitionKey":"vibeerp-workflow-ping"}
      (principal propagation from previous commit still works — pingedBy=user:admin)
    
    $ kill -TERM <pid>
    [ionShutdownHook] vibe_erp stopping 1 plug-in(s)
    [ionShutdownHook] [plugin:printing-shop] printing-shop plug-in stopped
    [ionShutdownHook] unregistered TaskHandler 'printing_shop.plate.approve' (owner stopped)
    [ionShutdownHook] TaskHandlerRegistry.unregisterAllByOwner('printing-shop') removed 1 handler(s)
    ```
    
    Every expected lifecycle event fires in the right order with the
    right owner attribution. Core handlers are untouched by plug-in
    teardown.
    
    ## Tests
    
    - 4 new / updated tests on `TaskHandlerRegistryTest`:
      * `unregisterAllByOwner only removes handlers owned by that id`
        — 2 core + 2 plug-in, unregister the plug-in owner, only the
        2 plug-in keys are removed
      * `unregisterAllByOwner on unknown owner returns zero`
      * `register with blank owner is rejected`
      * Updated `duplicate key fails fast` to assert the new error
        message format including both owner ids
    - Total framework unit tests: 269 (was 265), all green.
    
    ## What this unblocks
    
    - **REF.1** (real printing-shop quote→job-card workflow) can now
      register its production handlers through the same seam
    - **Plug-in-contributed handlers with state access** — the next
      design question is how a plug-in handler gets at the plug-in's
      database and translator. Two options: pass a projection of the
      PluginContext through TaskContext, or keep a reference to the
      context captured at plug-in start (closure). The PlateApproval
      handler in this chunk is pure on purpose to keep the seam
      conversation separate.
    - **Plug-in-shipped BPMN auto-deployment** — Flowable's default
      classpath scan uses `classpath*:/processes/*.bpmn20.xml` which
      does NOT see PF4J plug-in classloaders. A dedicated
      `PluginProcessDeployer` that walks each started plug-in's JAR for
      BPMN resources and calls `repositoryService.createDeployment` is
      the natural companion to this commit, still pending.
    
    ## Non-goals (still parking lot)
    
    - BPMN processes shipped inside plug-in JARs (see above — needs
      its own chunk, because it requires reading resources from the
      PF4J classloader and constructing a Flowable deployment by hand)
    - Per-handler permission checks — a handler that wants a permission
      gate still has to call back through its own context; P4.3's
      @RequirePermission aspect doesn't reach into Flowable delegate
      execution.
    - Hot reload of a running plug-in's TaskHandlers. The seam supports
      it, but `unloadPlugin` + `loadPlugin` at runtime isn't exercised
      by any current caller.

  • Completes the HasExt rollout across every core entity with an ext
    column. Item was the last one that carried an ext JSONB column
    without any validation wired — a plug-in could declare custom fields
    for Item but nothing would enforce them on save. This fixes that and
    restores two printing-shop-specific Item fields to the reference
    plug-in that were temporarily dropped from the previous Tier 1
    customization chunk (commit 16c59310) precisely because Item wasn't
    wired.
    
    Code changes:
      - Item implements HasExt; `ext` becomes `override var ext`, a
        companion constant holds the entity name "Item".
      - ItemService injects ExtJsonValidator, calls applyTo() in both
        create() and update() (create + update symmetry like partners
        and locations). parseExt passthrough added for response mappers.
      - CreateItemCommand, UpdateItemCommand, CreateItemRequest,
        UpdateItemRequest gain a nullable ext field.
      - ItemResponse now carries the parsed ext map, same shape as
        PartnerResponse / LocationResponse / SalesOrderResponse.
      - pbc-catalog build.gradle adds
        `implementation(project(":platform:platform-metadata"))`.
      - ItemServiceTest constructor updated to pass the new validator
        dependency with no-op stubs.
    
    Plug-in YAML (printing-shop.yml):
      - Re-added `printing_shop_color_count` (integer) and
        `printing_shop_paper_gsm` (integer) custom fields targeting Item.
        These were originally in the commit 16c59310 draft but removed
        because Item wasn't wired. Now that Item is wired, they're back
        and actually enforced.
    
    Smoke verified end-to-end against real Postgres with the plug-in
    staged:
      - GET /_meta/metadata/custom-fields/Item returns 2 plug-in fields.
      - POST /catalog/items with `{printing_shop_color_count: 4,
        printing_shop_paper_gsm: 170}` → 201, canonical form persisted.
      - GET roundtrip preserves both integer values.
      - POST with `printing_shop_color_count: "not-a-number"` → 400
        "ext.printing_shop_color_count: not a valid integer: 'not-a-number'".
      - POST with `rogue_key` → 400 "ext contains undeclared key(s)
        for 'Item': [rogue_key]".
    
    Six of eight PBCs now participate in HasExt:
      Partner, Location, SalesOrder, PurchaseOrder, WorkOrder, Item.
    The remaining two are pbc-identity (User has no ext column by
    design — identity is a security concern, not a customization one)
    and pbc-finance (JournalEntry is derived state from events, no
    customization surface).
    
    Five core entities carry Tier 1 custom fields as of this commit:
      Partner     (2 core + 1 plug-in)
      Item        (0 core + 2 plug-in)
      SalesOrder  (0 core + 1 plug-in)
      WorkOrder   (2 core + 1 plug-in)
      Location    (0 core + 0 plug-in — wired but no declarations yet)
    
    246 unit tests, all green. 18 Gradle subprojects.

  • The reference printing-shop plug-in now demonstrates the framework's
    most important promise — that a customer plug-in can EXTEND core
    business entities (Partner, SalesOrder, WorkOrder) with customer-
    specific fields WITHOUT touching any core code.
    
    Added to `printing-shop.yml` customFields section:
    
      Partner:
        printing_shop_customer_segment (enum: agency, in_house, end_client, reseller)
    
      SalesOrder:
        printing_shop_quote_number (string, maxLength 32)
    
      WorkOrder:
        printing_shop_press_id (string, maxLength 32)
    
    Mechanism (no code changes, all metadata-driven):
      1. Plug-in YAML carries a `customFields:` section alongside its
         entities / permissions / menus.
      2. MetadataLoader.loadFromPluginJar reads the section and inserts
         rows into `metadata__custom_field` tagged
         `source='plugin:printing-shop'`.
      3. CustomFieldRegistry.refresh re-reads ALL rows (both `source='core'`
         and `source='plugin:*'`) and merges them by `targetEntity`.
      4. ExtJsonValidator.applyTo now validates incoming ext against the
         MERGED set, so a POST to /api/v1/partners/partners can include
         both core-declared (partners_industry) and plug-in-declared
         (printing_shop_customer_segment) fields in the same request,
         and both are enforced.
      5. Uninstalling the plug-in removes the plugin:printing-shop rows
         and the fields disappear from validation AND from the UI's
         custom-field catalog — no migration, no restart of anything
         other than the plug-in lifecycle itself.
    
    Convention established: plug-in-contributed custom field keys are
    prefixed with the plug-in id (e.g. `printing_shop_*`) so two
    independent plug-ins can't collide on the same entity. Documented
    inline in the YAML.
    
    Smoke verified end-to-end against real Postgres with the plug-in
    staged:
      - CustomFieldRegistry logs "refreshed 4 custom fields" after core
        load, then "refreshed 7 custom fields across 3 entities" after
        plug-in load — 4 core + 3 plug-in fields, merged.
      - GET /_meta/metadata/custom-fields/Partner returns 3 fields
        (2 core + 1 plug-in).
      - GET /_meta/metadata/custom-fields/SalesOrder returns 1 field
        (plug-in only).
      - GET /_meta/metadata/custom-fields/WorkOrder returns 3 fields
        (2 core + 1 plug-in).
      - POST /partners/partners with BOTH a core field AND a plug-in
        field → 201, canonical form persisted.
      - POST with an invalid plug-in enum value → 400 "ext.printing_shop_customer_segment:
        value 'ghost' is not in allowed set [agency, in_house, end_client, reseller]".
      - POST /orders/sales-orders with printing_shop_quote_number → 201,
        quote number round-trips.
      - POST /production/work-orders with mixed production_priority +
        printing_shop_press_id → 201, both fields persisted.
    
    This is the first executable demonstration of Clean Core
    extensibility (CLAUDE.md guardrail #7) — the plug-in extends
    core-owned data through a stable public contract (api.v1 HasExt +
    metadata__custom_field) without reaching into any core or platform
    internal class. This is the "A" grade on the A/B/C/D extensibility
    safety scale.
    
    No code changes. No test changes. 246 unit tests, still green.

  • The eighth cross-cutting platform service is live: plug-ins and PBCs
    now have a real Translator and LocaleProvider instead of the
    UnsupportedOperationException stubs that have shipped since v0.5.
    
    What landed
    -----------
    * New Gradle subproject `platform/platform-i18n` (13 modules total).
    * `IcuTranslator` — backed by ICU4J's MessageFormat (named placeholders,
      plurals, gender, locale-aware number/date/currency formatting), the
      format every modern translation tool speaks natively. JDK ResourceBundle
      handles per-locale fallback (zh_CN → zh → root).
    * The translator takes a list of `BundleLocation(classLoader, baseName)`
      pairs and tries them in order. For the **core** translator the chain
      is just `[(host, "messages")]`; for a **per-plug-in** translator
      constructed by VibeErpPluginManager it's
      `[(pluginClassLoader, "META-INF/vibe-erp/i18n/messages"), (host, "messages")]`
      so plug-in keys override host keys, but plug-ins still inherit
      shared keys like `errors.not_found`.
    * Critical detail: the plug-in baseName uses a path the host does NOT
      publish, because PF4J's `PluginClassLoader` is parent-first — a
      `getResource("messages.properties")` against the plug-in classloader
      would find the HOST bundle through the parent chain, defeating the
      per-plug-in override entirely. Naming the plug-in resource somewhere
      the host doesn't claim sidesteps the trap.
    * The translator disables `ResourceBundle.Control`'s automatic JVM-default
      locale fallback. The default control walks `requested → root → JVM
      default → root` which would silently serve German strings to a
      Japanese-locale request just because the German bundle exists. The
      fallback chain stops at root within a bundle, then moves to the next
      bundle location, then returns the key string itself.
    * `RequestLocaleProvider` reads the active HTTP request's
      Accept-Language via `RequestContextHolder` + the servlet container's
      `getLocale()`. Outside an HTTP request (background jobs, workflow
      tasks, MCP agents) it falls back to the configured default locale
      (`vibeerp.i18n.defaultLocale`, default `en`). Importantly, when an
      HTTP request HAS no Accept-Language header it ALSO falls back to the
      configured default — never to the JVM's locale.
    * `I18nConfiguration` exposes `coreTranslator` and `coreLocaleProvider`
      beans. Per-plug-in translators are NOT beans — they're constructed
      imperatively per plug-in start in VibeErpPluginManager because each
      needs its own classloader at the front of the resolution chain.
    * `DefaultPluginContext` now wires `translator` and `localeProvider`
      for real instead of throwing `UnsupportedOperationException`.
    
    Bundles
    -------
    * Core: `platform-i18n/src/main/resources/messages.properties` (English),
      `messages_zh_CN.properties` (Simplified Chinese), `messages_de.properties`
      (German). Six common keys (errors, ok/cancel/save/delete) and an ICU
      plural example for `counts.items`. Java 9+ JEP 226 reads .properties
      files as UTF-8 by default, so Chinese characters are written directly
      rather than as `\\uXXXX` escapes.
    * Reference plug-in: moved from the broken `i18n/messages_en-US.properties`
      / `messages_zh-CN.properties` (wrong path, hyphen-locale filenames
      ResourceBundle ignores) to the canonical
      `META-INF/vibe-erp/i18n/messages.properties` /
      `messages_zh_CN.properties` paths with underscore locale tags.
      Added a new `printingshop.plate.created` key with an ICU plural for
      `ink_count` to demonstrate non-trivial argument substitution.
    
    End-to-end smoke test
    ---------------------
    Reset Postgres, booted the app, hit POST /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/plates
    with three different Accept-Language headers:
    * (no header)         → "Plate 'PLATE-001' created with no inks." (en-US, plug-in base bundle)
    * `Accept-Language: zh-CN` → "已创建印版 'PLATE-002' (无油墨)。" (zh-CN, plug-in zh_CN bundle)
    * `Accept-Language: de`    → "Plate 'PLATE-003' created with no inks." (de, but the plug-in
                                  ships no German bundle so it falls back to the plug-in base
                                  bundle — correct, the key is plug-in-specific)
    Regression: identity, catalog, partners, and `GET /plates` all still
    HTTP 200 after the i18n wiring change.
    
    Build
    -----
    * `./gradlew build`: 13 subprojects, 118 unit tests (was 107 / 12),
      all green. The 11 new tests cover ICU plural rendering, named-arg
      substitution, locale fallback (zh_CN → root, ja → root via NO_FALLBACK),
      cross-classloader override (a real JAR built in /tmp at test time),
      and RequestLocaleProvider's three resolution paths
      (no request → default; Accept-Language present → request locale;
      request without Accept-Language → default, NOT JVM locale).
    * The architectural rule still enforced: platform-plugins now imports
      platform-i18n, which is a platform-* dependency (allowed), not a
      pbc-* dependency (forbidden).
    
    What was deferred
    -----------------
    * User-preferred locale from the authenticated user's profile row is
      NOT in the resolution chain yet — the `LocaleProvider` interface
      leaves room for it but the implementation only consults
      Accept-Language and the configured default. Adding it slots in
      between request and default without changing the api.v1 surface.
    * The metadata translation overrides table (`metadata__translation`)
      is also deferred — the `Translator` JavaDoc mentions it as the
      first lookup source, but right now keys come from .properties files
      only. Once Tier 1 customisation lands (P3.x), key users will be able
      to override any string from the SPA without touching code.

  • Adds the foundation for the entire Tier 1 customization story. Core
    PBCs and plug-ins now ship YAML files declaring their entities,
    permissions, and menus; a `MetadataLoader` walks the host classpath
    and each plug-in JAR at boot, upserts the rows tagged with their
    source, and exposes them at a public REST endpoint so the future
    SPA, AI-agent function catalog, OpenAPI generator, and external
    introspection tooling can all see what the framework offers without
    scraping code.
    
    What landed:
    
    * New `platform/platform-metadata/` Gradle subproject. Depends on
      api-v1 + platform-persistence + jackson-yaml + spring-jdbc.
    
    * `MetadataYamlFile` DTOs (entities, permissions, menus). Forward-
      compatible: unknown top-level keys are ignored, so a future plug-in
      built against a newer schema (forms, workflows, rules, translations)
      loads cleanly on an older host that doesn't know those sections yet.
    
    * `MetadataLoader` with two entry points:
    
        loadCore() — uses Spring's PathMatchingResourcePatternResolver
          against the host classloader. Finds every classpath*:META-INF/
          vibe-erp/metadata/*.yml across all jars contributing to the
          application. Tagged source='core'.
    
        loadFromPluginJar(pluginId, jarPath) — opens ONE specific
          plug-in JAR via java.util.jar.JarFile and walks its entries
          directly. This is critical: a plug-in's PluginClassLoader is
          parent-first, so a classpath*: scan against it would ALSO
          pick up the host's metadata files via parent classpath. We
          saw this in the first smoke run — the plug-in source ended
          up with 6 entities (the plug-in's 2 + the host's 4) before
          the fix. Walking the JAR file directly guarantees only the
          plug-in's own files load. Tagged source='plugin:<id>'.
    
      Both entry points use the same delete-then-insert idempotent core
      (doLoad). Loading the same source twice produces the same final
      state. User-edited metadata (source='user') is NEVER touched by
      either path — it survives boot, plug-in install, and plug-in
      upgrade. This is what lets a future SPA "Customize" UI add custom
      fields without fearing they'll be wiped on the next deploy.
    
    * `VibeErpPluginManager.afterPropertiesSet()` now calls
      metadataLoader.loadCore() at the very start, then walks plug-ins
      and calls loadFromPluginJar(...) for each one between Liquibase
      migration and start(context). Order is guaranteed: core → linter
      → migrate → metadata → start. The CommandLineRunner I originally
      put `loadCore()` in turned out to be wrong because Spring runs
      CommandLineRunners AFTER InitializingBean.afterPropertiesSet(),
      so the plug-in metadata was loading BEFORE core — the wrong way
      around. Calling loadCore() inline in the plug-in manager fixes
      the ordering without any @Order(...) gymnastics.
    
    * `MetadataController` exposes:
        GET /api/v1/_meta/metadata           — all three sections
        GET /api/v1/_meta/metadata/entities  — entities only
        GET /api/v1/_meta/metadata/permissions
        GET /api/v1/_meta/metadata/menus
      Public allowlist (covered by the existing /api/v1/_meta/** rule
      in SecurityConfiguration). The metadata is intentionally non-
      sensitive — entity names, permission keys, menu paths. Nothing
      in here is PII or secret; the SPA needs to read it before the
      user has logged in.
    
    * YAML files shipped:
      - pbc-identity/META-INF/vibe-erp/metadata/identity.yml
        (User + Role entities, 6 permissions, Users + Roles menus)
      - pbc-catalog/META-INF/vibe-erp/metadata/catalog.yml
        (Item + Uom entities, 7 permissions, Items + UoMs menus)
      - reference plug-in/META-INF/vibe-erp/metadata/printing-shop.yml
        (Plate + InkRecipe entities, 5 permissions, Plates + Inks menus
        in a "Printing shop" section)
    
    Tests: 4 MetadataLoaderTest cases (loadFromPluginJar happy paths,
    mixed sections, blank pluginId rejection, missing-file no-op wipe)
    + 7 MetadataYamlParseTest cases (DTO mapping, optional fields,
    section defaults, forward-compat unknown keys). Total now
    **92 unit tests** across 11 modules, all green.
    
    End-to-end smoke test against fresh Postgres + plug-in loaded:
    
      Boot logs:
        MetadataLoader: source='core' loaded 4 entities, 13 permissions,
          4 menus from 2 file(s)
        MetadataLoader: source='plugin:printing-shop' loaded 2 entities,
          5 permissions, 2 menus from 1 file(s)
    
      HTTP smoke (everything green):
        GET /api/v1/_meta/metadata (no auth)              → 200
          6 entities, 18 permissions, 6 menus
          entity names: User, Role, Item, Uom, Plate, InkRecipe
          menu sections: Catalog, Printing shop, System
        GET /api/v1/_meta/metadata/entities                → 200
        GET /api/v1/_meta/metadata/menus                   → 200
    
      Direct DB verification:
        metadata__entity:    core=4, plugin:printing-shop=2
        metadata__permission: core=13, plugin:printing-shop=5
        metadata__menu:      core=4, plugin:printing-shop=2
    
      Idempotency: restart the app, identical row counts.
    
      Existing endpoints regression:
        GET /api/v1/identity/users (Bearer)               → 1 user
        GET /api/v1/catalog/uoms (Bearer)                  → 15 UoMs
        GET /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/ping (Bearer)    → 200
    
    Bugs caught and fixed during the smoke test:
    
      • The first attempt loaded core metadata via a CommandLineRunner
        annotated @Order(HIGHEST_PRECEDENCE) and per-plug-in metadata
        inline in VibeErpPluginManager.afterPropertiesSet(). Spring
        runs all InitializingBeans BEFORE any CommandLineRunner, so
        the plug-in metadata loaded first and the core load came
        second — wrong order. Fix: drop CoreMetadataInitializer
        entirely; have the plug-in manager call metadataLoader.loadCore()
        directly at the start of afterPropertiesSet().
    
      • The first attempt's plug-in load used
        metadataLoader.load(pluginClassLoader, ...) which used Spring's
        PathMatchingResourcePatternResolver against the plug-in's
        classloader. PluginClassLoader is parent-first, so the resolver
        enumerated BOTH the plug-in's own JAR AND the host classpath's
        metadata files, tagging core entities as source='plugin:<id>'
        and corrupting the seed counts. Fix: refactor MetadataLoader
        to expose loadFromPluginJar(pluginId, jarPath) which opens
        the plug-in JAR directly via java.util.jar.JarFile and walks
        its entries — never asking the classloader at all. The
        api-v1 surface didn't change.
    
      • Two KDoc comments contained the literal string `*.yml` after
        a `/` character (`/metadata/*.yml`), forming the `/*` pattern
        that Kotlin's lexer treats as a nested-comment opener. The
        file failed to compile with "Unclosed comment". This is the
        third time I've hit this trap; rewriting both KDocs to avoid
        the literal `/*` sequence.
    
      • The MetadataLoaderTest's hand-rolled JAR builder didn't include
        explicit directory entries for parent paths. Real Gradle JARs
        do include them, and Spring's PathMatchingResourcePatternResolver
        needs them to enumerate via classpath*:. Fixed the test helper
        to write directory entries for every parent of each file.
    
    Implementation plan refreshed: P1.5 marked DONE. Next priority
    candidates: P5.2 (pbc-partners — third PBC clone) and P3.4 (custom
    field application via the ext jsonb column, which would unlock the
    full Tier 1 customization story).
    
    Framework state: 17→18 commits, 10→11 modules, 81→92 unit tests,
    metadata seeded for 6 entities + 18 permissions + 6 menus.

  • The reference printing-shop plug-in graduates from "hello world" to a
    real customer demonstration: it now ships its own Liquibase changelog,
    owns its own database tables, and exposes a real domain (plates and
    ink recipes) via REST that goes through `context.jdbc` — a new
    typed-SQL surface in api.v1 — without ever touching Spring's
    `JdbcTemplate` or any other host internal type. A bytecode linter
    that runs before plug-in start refuses to load any plug-in that tries
    to import `org.vibeerp.platform.*` or `org.vibeerp.pbc.*` classes.
    
    What landed:
    
    * api.v1 (additive, binary-compatible):
      - PluginJdbc — typed SQL access with named parameters. Methods:
        query, queryForObject, update, inTransaction. No Spring imports
        leaked. Forces plug-ins to use named params (no positional ?).
      - PluginRow — typed nullable accessors over a single result row:
        string, int, long, uuid, bool, instant, bigDecimal. Hides
        java.sql.ResultSet entirely.
      - PluginContext.jdbc getter with default impl that throws
        UnsupportedOperationException so older builds remain binary
        compatible per the api.v1 stability rules.
    
    * platform-plugins — three new sub-packages:
      - jdbc/DefaultPluginJdbc backed by Spring's NamedParameterJdbcTemplate.
        ResultSetPluginRow translates each accessor through ResultSet.wasNull()
        so SQL NULL round-trips as Kotlin null instead of the JDBC defaults
        (0 for int, false for bool, etc. — bug factories).
      - jdbc/PluginJdbcConfiguration provides one shared PluginJdbc bean
        for the whole process. Per-plugin isolation lands later.
      - migration/PluginLiquibaseRunner looks for
        META-INF/vibe-erp/db/changelog.xml inside the plug-in JAR via
        the PF4J classloader and applies it via Liquibase against the
        host's shared DataSource. The unique META-INF path matters:
        plug-ins also see the host's parent classpath, where the host's
        own db/changelog/master.xml lives, and a collision causes
        Liquibase ChangeLogParseException at install time.
      - lint/PluginLinter walks every .class entry in the plug-in JAR
        via java.util.jar.JarFile + ASM ClassReader, visits every type/
        method/field/instruction reference, rejects on any reference to
        `org/vibeerp/platform/` or `org/vibeerp/pbc/` packages.
    
    * VibeErpPluginManager lifecycle is now load → lint → migrate → start:
      - lint runs immediately after PF4J's loadPlugins(); rejected
        plug-ins are unloaded with a per-violation error log and never
        get to run any code
      - migrate runs the plug-in's own Liquibase changelog; failure
        means the plug-in is loaded but skipped (loud warning, framework
        boots fine)
      - then PF4J's startPlugins() runs the no-arg start
      - then we walk loaded plug-ins and call vibe_erp's start(context)
        with a fully-wired DefaultPluginContext (logger + endpoints +
        eventBus + jdbc). The plug-in's tables are guaranteed to exist
        by the time its lambdas run.
    
    * DefaultPluginContext.jdbc is no longer a stub. Plug-ins inject the
      shared PluginJdbc and use it to talk to their own tables.
    
    * Reference plug-in (PrintingShopPlugin):
      - Ships META-INF/vibe-erp/db/changelog.xml with two changesets:
        plugin_printingshop__plate (id, code, name, width_mm, height_mm,
        status) and plugin_printingshop__ink_recipe (id, code, name,
        cmyk_c/m/y/k).
      - Now registers seven endpoints:
          GET  /ping          — health
          GET  /echo/{name}   — path variable demo
          GET  /plates        — list
          GET  /plates/{id}   — fetch
          POST /plates        — create (with race-conditiony existence
                                check before INSERT, since plug-ins
                                can't import Spring's DataAccessException)
          GET  /inks
          POST /inks
      - All CRUD lambdas use context.jdbc with named parameters. The
        plug-in still imports nothing from org.springframework.* in its
        own code (it does reach the host's Jackson via reflection for
        JSON parsing — a deliberate v0.6 shortcut documented inline).
    
    Tests: 5 new PluginLinterTest cases use ASM ClassWriter to synthesize
    in-memory plug-in JARs (clean class, forbidden platform ref, forbidden
    pbc ref, allowed api.v1 ref, multiple violations) and a mocked
    PluginWrapper to avoid touching the real PF4J loader. Total now
    **81 unit tests** across 10 modules, all green.
    
    End-to-end smoke test against fresh Postgres with the plug-in loaded
    (every assertion green):
    
      Boot logs:
        PluginLiquibaseRunner: plug-in 'printing-shop' has changelog.xml
        Liquibase: ChangeSet printingshop-init-001 ran successfully
        Liquibase: ChangeSet printingshop-init-002 ran successfully
        Liquibase migrations applied successfully
        plugin.printing-shop: registered 7 endpoints
    
      HTTP smoke:
        \dt plugin_printingshop*                  → both tables exist
        GET /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/plates  → []

        POST duplicate A4                          → 409 + clear msg
        GET plates                                 → 2 rows
        GET /plates/{id}                           → A4 details
        psql verifies both rows in plugin_printingshop__plate
        POST ink CYAN                              → 201
        POST ink MAGENTA                           → 201
        GET inks                                   → 2 inks with nested CMYK
        GET /ping                                  → 200 (existing endpoint)
        GET /api/v1/catalog/uoms                   → 15 UoMs (no regression)
        GET /api/v1/identity/users                 → 1 user (no regression)
    
    Bug encountered and fixed during the smoke test:
    
      • The plug-in initially shipped its changelog at db/changelog/master.xml,
        which collides with the HOST's db/changelog/master.xml. The plug-in
        classloader does parent-first lookup (PF4J default), so Liquibase's
        ClassLoaderResourceAccessor found BOTH files and threw
        ChangeLogParseException ("Found 2 files with the path"). Fixed by
        moving the plug-in changelog to META-INF/vibe-erp/db/changelog.xml,
        a path the host never uses, and updating PluginLiquibaseRunner.
        The unique META-INF prefix is now part of the documented plug-in
        convention.
    
    What is explicitly NOT in this chunk (deferred):
    
      • Per-plugin Spring child contexts — plug-ins still instantiate via
        PF4J's classloader without their own Spring beans
      • Per-plugin datasource isolation — one shared host pool today
      • Plug-in changelog table-prefix linter — convention only, runtime
        enforcement comes later
      • Rollback on plug-in uninstall — uninstall is operator-confirmed
        and rare; running dropAll() during stop() would lose data on
        accidental restart
      • Subscription auto-scoping on plug-in stop — plug-ins still close
        their own subscriptions in stop()
      • Real customer-grade JSON parsing in plug-in lambdas — the v0.6
        reference plug-in uses reflection to find the host's Jackson; a
        real plug-in author would ship their own JSON library or use a
        future api.v1 typed-DTO surface
    
    Implementation plan refreshed: P1.2, P1.3, P1.4, P1.7, P4.1, P5.1
    all marked DONE in
    docs/superpowers/specs/2026-04-07-vibe-erp-implementation-plan.md.
    Next priority candidates: P1.5 (metadata seeder) and P5.2 (pbc-partners).

  • The reference printing-shop plug-in now actually does something:
    its main class registers two HTTP endpoints during start(context),
    and a real curl to /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/ping returns the
    JSON the plug-in's lambda produced. End-to-end smoke test 10/10
    green. This is the chunk that turns vibe_erp from "an ERP app
    that has a plug-in folder" into "an ERP framework whose plug-ins
    can serve traffic".
    
    What landed:
    
    * api.v1 — additive (binary-compatible per the api.v1 stability rule):
      - org.vibeerp.api.v1.plugin.HttpMethod (enum)
      - org.vibeerp.api.v1.plugin.PluginRequest (path params, query, body)
      - org.vibeerp.api.v1.plugin.PluginResponse (status + body)
      - org.vibeerp.api.v1.plugin.PluginEndpointHandler (fun interface)
      - org.vibeerp.api.v1.plugin.PluginEndpointRegistrar (per-plugin
        scoped, register(method, path, handler))
      - PluginContext.endpoints getter with default impl that throws
        UnsupportedOperationException so the addition is binary-compatible
        with plug-ins compiled against earlier api.v1 builds.
    
    * platform-plugins — three new files:
      - PluginEndpointRegistry: process-wide registration storage. Uses
        Spring's AntPathMatcher so {var} extracts path variables.
        Synchronized mutation. Exact-match fast path before pattern loop.
        Rejects duplicate (method, path) per plug-in. unregisterAll(plugin)
        on shutdown.
      - ScopedPluginEndpointRegistrar: per-plugin wrapper that tags every
        register() call with the right plugin id. Plug-ins cannot register
        under another plug-in's namespace.
      - PluginEndpointDispatcher: single Spring @RestController at
        /api/v1/plugins/{pluginId}/** that catches GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE,
        asks the registry for a match, builds a PluginRequest, calls the
        handler, serializes the response. 404 on no match, 500 on handler
        throw (logged with stack trace).
      - DefaultPluginContext: implements PluginContext with a real
        SLF4J-backed logger (every line tagged with the plug-in id) and
        the scoped endpoint registrar. The other six services
        (eventBus, transaction, translator, localeProvider,
        permissionCheck, entityRegistry) throw UnsupportedOperationException
        with messages pointing at the implementation plan unit that will
        land each one. Loud failure beats silent no-op.
    
    * VibeErpPluginManager — after PF4J's startPlugins() now walks every
      loaded plug-in, casts the wrapper instance to api.v1.plugin.Plugin,
      and calls start(context) with a freshly-built DefaultPluginContext.
      Tracks the started set so destroy() can call stop() and
      unregisterAll() in reverse order. Catches plug-in start failures
      loudly without bringing the framework down.
    
    * Reference plug-in (PrintingShopPlugin):
      - Now extends BOTH org.pf4j.Plugin (so PF4J's loader can instantiate
        it via the Plugin-Class manifest entry) AND
        org.vibeerp.api.v1.plugin.Plugin (so the host's vibe_erp lifecycle
        hook can call start(context)). Uses Kotlin import aliases to
        disambiguate the two `Plugin` simple names.
      - In start(context), registers two endpoints:
          GET /ping — returns {plugin, version, ok, message}
          GET /echo/{name} — extracts path variable, echoes it back
      - The /echo handler proves path-variable extraction works end-to-end.
    
    * Build infrastructure:
      - reference-customer/plugin-printing-shop now has an `installToDev`
        Gradle task that builds the JAR and stages it into <repo>/plugins-dev/.
        The task wipes any previous staged copies first so renaming the JAR
        on a version bump doesn't leave PF4J trying to load two versions.
      - distribution's `bootRun` task now (a) depends on `installToDev`
        so the staging happens automatically and (b) sets workingDir to
        the repo root so application-dev.yaml's relative
        `vibeerp.plugins.directory: ./plugins-dev` resolves to the right
        place. Without (b) bootRun's CWD was distribution/ and PF4J found
        "No plugins" — which is exactly the bug that surfaced in the first
        smoke run.
      - .gitignore now excludes /plugins-dev/ and /files-dev/.
    
    Tests: 12 new unit tests for PluginEndpointRegistry covering literal
    paths, single/multi path variables, duplicate registration rejection,
    literal-vs-pattern precedence, cross-plug-in isolation, method
    matching, and unregisterAll. Total now 61 unit tests across the
    framework, all green.
    
    End-to-end smoke test against fresh Postgres + the plug-in JAR
    loaded by PF4J at boot (10/10 passing):
      GET /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/ping (no auth)         → 401
      POST /api/v1/auth/login                                  → access token
      GET /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/ping (Bearer)          → 200
                                                                 {plugin, version, ok, message}
      GET /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/echo/hello             → 200, echoed=hello
      GET /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/echo/world             → 200, echoed=world
      GET /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/nonexistent            → 404 (no handler)
      GET /api/v1/plugins/missing-plugin/ping                  → 404 (no plugin)
      POST /api/v1/plugins/printing-shop/ping                  → 404 (wrong method)
      GET /api/v1/catalog/uoms (Bearer)                        → 200, 15 UoMs
      GET /api/v1/identity/users (Bearer)                      → 200, 1 user
    
    PF4J resolved the JAR, started the plug-in, the host called
    vibe_erp's start(context), the plug-in registered two endpoints, and
    the dispatcher routed real HTTP traffic to the plug-in's lambdas.
    The boot log shows the full chain.
    
    What is explicitly NOT in this chunk and remains for later:
      • plug-in linter (P1.2) — bytecode scan for forbidden imports
      • plug-in Liquibase application (P1.4) — plug-in-owned schemas
      • per-plug-in Spring child context — currently we just instantiate
        the plug-in via PF4J's classloader; there is no Spring context
        for the plug-in's own beans
      • PluginContext.eventBus / transaction / translator / etc. — they
        still throw UnsupportedOperationException with TODO messages
      • Path-template precedence between multiple competing patterns
        (only literal-beats-pattern is implemented, not most-specific-pattern)
      • Permission checks at the dispatcher (Spring Security still
        catches plug-in endpoints with the global "anyRequest authenticated"
        rule, which is the right v0.5 behavior)
      • Hot reload of plug-ins (cold restart only)
    
    Bug encountered and fixed during the smoke test:
    
      • application-dev.yaml has `vibeerp.plugins.directory: ./plugins-dev`,
        a relative path. Gradle's `bootRun` task by default uses the
        subproject's directory as the working directory, so the relative
        path resolved to <repo>/distribution/plugins-dev/ instead of
        <repo>/plugins-dev/. PF4J reported "No plugins" because that
        directory was empty. Fixed by setting bootRun.workingDir =
        rootProject.layout.projectDirectory.asFile.
    
      • One KDoc comment in PluginEndpointDispatcher contained the literal
        string `/api/v1/plugins/{pluginId}/**` inside backticks. The
        Kotlin lexer doesn't treat backticks as comment-suppressing, so
        `/**` opened a nested KDoc comment that was never closed and the
        file failed to compile. Same root cause as the AuthController bug
        earlier in the session. Rewrote the line to avoid the literal
        `/**` sequence.

  • BLOCKER: wire Hibernate multi-tenancy
    - application.yaml: set hibernate.tenant_identifier_resolver and
      hibernate.multiTenancy=DISCRIMINATOR so HibernateTenantResolver is
      actually installed into the SessionFactory
    - AuditedJpaEntity.tenantId: add @org.hibernate.annotations.TenantId so
      every PBC entity inherits the discriminator
    - AuditedJpaEntityListener.onCreate: throw if a caller pre-set tenantId
      to a different value than the current TenantContext, instead of
      silently overwriting (defense against cross-tenant write bugs)
    
    IMPORTANT: dependency hygiene
    - pbc-identity no longer depends on platform-bootstrap (wrong direction;
      bootstrap assembles PBCs at the top of the stack)
    - root build.gradle.kts: tighten the architectural-rule enforcement to
      also reject :pbc:* -> platform-bootstrap; switch plug-in detection
      from a fragile pathname heuristic to an explicit
      extra["vibeerp.module-kind"] = "plugin" marker; reference plug-in
      declares the marker
    
    IMPORTANT: api.v1 surface additions (all non-breaking)
    - Repository: documented closed exception set; new
      PersistenceExceptions.kt declares OptimisticLockConflictException,
      UniqueConstraintViolationException, EntityValidationException, and
      EntityNotFoundException so plug-ins never see Hibernate types
    - TaskContext: now exposes tenantId(), principal(), locale(),
      correlationId() so workflow handlers (which run outside an HTTP
      request) can pass tenant-aware calls back into api.v1
    - EventBus: subscribe() now returns a Subscription with close() so
      long-lived subscribers can deregister explicitly; added a
      subscribe(topic: String, ...) overload for cross-classloader event
      routing where Class<E> equality is unreliable
    - IdentityApi.findUserById: tightened from Id<*> to PrincipalId so the
      type system rejects "wrong-id-kind" mistakes at the cross-PBC boundary
    
    NITs:
    - HealthController.kt -> MetaController.kt (file name now matches the
      class name); added TODO(v0.2) for reading implementationVersion from
      the Spring Boot BuildProperties bean
