Subject: [PATCH 1/3] feat(plugins): add trusted composer references and
 session example

Allow trusted renderer plugins to contribute completion candidates and inline references without adding session-specific composer behavior. Resolve selected references at submission while preserving their display form across queued turns and transcript reloads.

Include a bounded session Q&A example under @, with five visible reference candidates and a collapsible file group. Review renderer trust explicitly and preserve existing database rows through the schema upgrade.

+# ADR: Trusted renderer entries for composer references
+
+- Status: Accepted for implementation
+- Date: 2026-09-20
+- Scope: Issue #545 slots 7 and 14; session-reference example for #446
+
+## Context
+
+Completion providers need asynchronous search and reference resolution. Functions
+cannot cross the existing process boundary. Running session-reference logic in
+the composer would make one plugin's data source part of the desktop application.
+
+## Decision
+
+Add an optional `manifest.renderer` ES-module entry, alongside the existing
+process-isolated `main` and page-based views. A renderer entry executes in the
+application's JavaScript realm. Declaring the entry derives the high-risk
+`ui.renderer` trust grant shown by installation and development-load review.
+Authors do not declare per-slot permissions. Existing entries retain their
+permission and process boundaries.
+
+The first renderer contract exposes data-producing completion providers and
+reference lifecycle callbacks. The host renders these two slots. Arbitrary
+React component slots, a React shim, and plugin styles are separate work;
+this implementation does not claim the other twelve slots in #545.
+
+Use one reference identity, `(pluginId, refId)`, for completion acceptance and
+active insertion. Resolve each reference independently when the user submits a
+message. Persist the expanded model content with separate, optional display
+metadata. SQLite schema 20 adds a nullable display field to queued turns;
+transcript JSONL stores the same additive metadata. Existing rows require no
+content rewrite. A missing or failing plugin leaves its literal label intact.
+
+## Alternatives
+
+- Built-in session mentions: avoids the renderer loader but places plugin-specific
+  history selection in the host and provides no reusable extension point.
+- Isolated-page RPC: preserves isolation but does not establish the renderer
+  execution model selected by #545. It remains the model for existing views.
+- Encoded hidden text inside message content: avoids a queue column but makes
+  user text double as a display protocol and can hide ordinary pasted text.
+
+## Consequences
+
+Trusted renderer code can access the DOM and the renderer's application APIs.
+The narrow SDK is an integration contract, not a security sandbox. Infinite
+synchronous loops cannot be interrupted by a promise timeout. The host bounds
+entry size, asynchronous activation/search/resolution, clears registrations on
+unload and project changes, and displays activation diagnostics in plugin details.
+
+Renderer entries must be self-contained bundles. The entry path is checked
+against the real package directory; theme assets do not gain script execution.
+The CSP permits blob modules for the reviewed source returned by the host.
+
+Native Pi continuation and remote hosts reject composer-reference payloads until
+their transports can preserve the display metadata. The editor restores rejected
+drafts. Schema 20 databases cannot be reopened by older builds that support only
+schema 19; the upgrade takes the standard migration backup.

+## Composer reference display metadata
+
+Schema v20 adds nullable `turn_queue.composer_display_json`, preserving the visible labels independently of queued model content. The standard backed-up migration leaves existing rows unchanged. Transcript records carry optional `composerDisplay` metadata with text and reference spans; absent metadata retains existing rendering. Model context continues to use the canonical content blocks.

+# Composer completion and reference contracts
+
+## Scope
+
+This contract implements slots 7 and 14 of issue #545 through a trusted
+`renderer` entry. See [the architecture decision](../../adr/trusted-renderer-composer-references.md).
+Other renderer component slots are outside this contract.
+
+## Entry and trust
+
+`renderer` is an optional package-relative path to a self-contained ES module
+exporting `default(api: PiRendererApi)`. Activation may return a disposer.
+The entry derives a high-risk `ui.renderer` grant; installing, updating or
+reloading a plugin must review any newly requested trust. A missing grant means
+no renderer entry is exposed. Source is limited to 1 MiB, and symlink escapes
+are refused. Only enabled plugins active in the current project load.
+
+The API has an abort signal. Disable, unload, entry replacement, project change
+and renderer shutdown abort activation and dispose all registered providers.
+Activation is bounded to five seconds. The host cannot preempt synchronous code
+running in its own realm.
+
+## Completion providers
+
+`composer.registerCompletion(id, provider)` registers one punctuation trigger,
+static `items`, optional asynchronous `search(query, signal)`, `resolve`, and
+optional `onRemove`. It returns an unregister function.
+`composer.updateCompletion(id, items)` replaces pushed candidates.
+
+Built-in `@` and `/` sources remain available. Slash commands precede plugin
+references; the reference menu places plugin candidates before the Files group.
+Plugins cannot remove built-ins or change command argument grammar.
+Reference menus show at most five plugin candidates, followed by a collapsed Files
+group. Clicking the group or selecting it with the keyboard toggles the matching
+file candidates without changing the draft. A new trigger resets the group to
+collapsed. Typing filters all candidates before the plugin display limit applies.
+Other triggers have a single owner, first registration wins. A conflict leaves
+the previous provider intact and appears in the plugin's diagnostics.
+
+The host performs local fuzzy matching. Remote search has a 1.5-second deadline;
+failure preserves pushed local candidates. Stale queries and IME composition
+cannot overwrite a newer result.
+
+## References
+
+Candidates carry `{ refId, label, description? }`. Active insertion uses
+`composer.reference.insert(providerId, reference)`. Both entry points share
+host-owned inline chips, per-plugin identity deduplication, and deletion
+notifications. Re-insertion selects the existing chip. Drafts retain identity
+through session switching, remounting and rejected sends. At most 64 plugin
+references can be inserted into one draft.
+
+On submission the host calls each resolver once, independently, with a five-second
+asynchronous deadline. Results contain `text` and optional existing file/image
+attachment descriptors. At most 64,000 characters of reference text and 32
+plugin-provided attachments are accepted per message; invalid results fall back
+to their label. File and image permissions remain enforced by the ordinary
+attachment resolver. Expansion occurs at enqueue time so queued turns have a
+stable snapshot.
+
+`content` remains model-facing. Optional `composerDisplay` contains the visible
+text and validated reference spans. User transcripts show those chips and copy
+the visible text; plugins need not remain installed to read old labels. Queued
+turns preserve the metadata across restart. Inline transcript editing starts
+from visible text, so editing a sent reference makes it literal text.
+
+Native Pi continuation and remote-host submissions currently reject references
+and restore the draft rather than losing display metadata.
+
+## Session-reference example
+
+`examples/plugins/session-references` registers `@`. Session titles are read for
+candidates; `session.readSelected` is available during resolution of that selected
+session ID. This is an SDK access discipline, not an isolation boundary for
+trusted same-realm code.
+
+The example reads at most 400 recent messages, with 16,000 characters per message,
+and includes up to ten completed parent Q&A turns within 24,000 characters.
+Thinking, tools, delegate messages, incomplete answers and nested expansions
+are excluded. The text explicitly identifies the excerpt as bounded historical
+reference material. This example does not implement the percentage budget UI
+proposed in PR #447.

+# Composer 补全与引用
+
+> **翻译说明：** 本页对应 [英文源规格](/spec/07-plugins/17-composer-references)。接口名称保持原文；有歧义时以英文源规格为准。
+
+## 范围与信任
+
+实现 #545 的第 7、14 项；其他组件插槽不包含在本次范围内。
+插件可声明包内的 `renderer` ES 模块，默认导出接收 `PiRendererApi`
+的激活函数，并可返回清理函数。入口必须打包为单个文件。
+
+声明入口会派生高风险 `ui.renderer` 信任授权，安装、更新或扩大授权时
+由既有审核流程展示。受信入口与应用共用 JS realm，可以访问界面及其数据，
+不受插件页面的进程隔离保护。仅加载已启用、具有授权且符合当前项目范围的入口。
+入口最大 1 MiB；真实路径不能通过符号链接逃出插件目录。
+
+停用、卸载、入口替换、项目切换和窗口关闭会中止激活并清理注册。
+异步激活最多五秒；同步死循环无法被异步超时中断。
+
+## 补全
+
+`composer.registerCompletion(id, provider)` 注册触发符、静态候选、可选的
+异步检索、解析回调和移除通知，并返回注销函数。
+`composer.updateCompletion(id, items)` 替换推送的候选。
+
+内置 `@`、`/` 保留；斜杠命令排在插件候选前，引用菜单则先显示插件候选，再显示文件分组。插件不能移除内置来源或改变命令参数规则。
+引用菜单最多显示 5 条插件候选，其后是默认折叠的“文件”分组。点击分组或用键盘选中后确认即可展开、收起，不改变输入内容。重新输入触发符时恢复折叠。输入关键词后先过滤全部候选，再应用显示上限。
+其他单字符标点触发符先注册者生效，冲突显示在插件诊断中。
+宿主本地模糊匹配，异步检索最多 1.5 秒，失败后保留静态候选。
+旧检索和输入法组合输入不能覆盖新结果。
+
+## 引用生命周期
+
+候选携带 `{ refId, label, description? }`。
+主动插入使用 `composer.reference.insert(providerId, reference)`。
+两条入口共用按 `(pluginId, refId)` 去重的卡片、删除通知和草稿状态。
+重复插入会选中已有卡片，每份草稿最多 64 个插件引用。
+
+提交时逐个解析，每个引用有五秒异步上限；一个失败只让它回退到标签文字。
+每条消息最多接受 64,000 个引用文本字符和 32 个插件附件，附件仍经过现有
+文件及图片校验。排队时生成内容快照，避免等待期间内容发生变化。
+
+模型内容存入 `content`，界面文字和引用位置存入可选的 `composerDisplay`。
+聊天记录显示卡片，复制使用可见文字；卸载插件后历史标签仍可阅读。
+队列重启后保留显示信息，编辑队列时恢复引用身份。直接编辑已发送消息会
+从可见文字开始，此时引用变为普通文字。
+
+原生 Pi 会话和远程主机暂不支持该载荷，会拒绝提交并恢复草稿。
+
+## 会话引用示例
+
+`examples/plugins/session-references` 提供 `@` 候选。列出会话标题；解析
+已选会话时才调用 `session.readSelected`。这是 SDK 使用约束，并非同 realm
+代码的安全隔离。
+
+最多读取最近 400 条消息，每条最多 16,000 字符；纳入最近十轮已完成的主会话
+问答，总计最多 24,000 字符。排除思考、工具、子代理及未完成回答，不递归展开
+历史引用。正文说明这是可能省略或截断的历史资料；不包含 PR #447 的百分比预算界面。

+# Session References
+
+Load this folder using Plugins → Development → Load Folder, then review the
+trusted UI entry. In a local Desktop conversation, type `@`, search a title,
+and accept a candidate. It appears as an inline chip. Sending expands a bounded
+snapshot of completed Q&A for the model; the transcript keeps the short label.
+
+The renderer module is self-contained. `main.js` preserves the existing required
+main-entry contract and has no behavior. Disable the plugin to remove its
+completion provider. Existing references fall back to their labels when sent.
+
+The SDK contract and limits are documented in
+[Composer references](../../../docs/spec/07-plugins/17-composer-references.md).

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] fix(chat): copy visible reference labels from transcript
 menus

Keep the newly integrated context-menu copy actions consistent with the reference chips shown in the transcript. Copying a user turn or conversation should not unexpectedly expose its expanded historical context.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] fix(ci): align existing source checks with composer
 references

The composer token helper moved and user messages now separate visible labels from model-facing content. Update the existing source checks and presentation loader to follow those paths while retaining their original regression assertions.
