kind: "package-group"
host/ — web-GUI host half
English | 中文
Summary
The host/ group provides the web GUI's plain HTTP server, the SPA dist server that serves the built Web shell, the workspace-directory picking seam with its native, browse, and adaptive composition packages, the open-in-app application probe and launch routes, and the read-only plugin inventory projection. All eight packages are product packages; the browser transport lives in client/, and the composed application is apps/cli booting the dsh-base bundle that serves the web app under apps/web/. The picker backends replace one another behind the shared seam.

Start with the subsystem references for the transport and the workspace records, then the layering decision behind the Web client.
- HTTP server subsystem — the webserver's routes, matching order, and config.
- Workspace subsystem — the workspace records the directory picker feeds.
- Web config-tree boot and transport layering — ownership of the Web transport layers.
