cproudlock da654944dc Phase 6: simplify-pass policy, plugins listing, roadmap to 1.0
End-of-pipeline cleanup. No structural changes; documents what is
done, what is left, and the discipline for future cleanup commits.

Skill:
- simplifying-python: end-of-session cleanup discipline. Inspired by
  Anthropic's open-sourced code-simplifier. Targets duplication, dead
  code, voodoo constants, stale comments, misnamed identifiers,
  unnecessary abstraction. Anti-targets: architecture, public API
  surface, schema, sweeping rewrites. Behavior preservation enforced
  by running pytest before and after.

Simplify pass on shopdb/utils/responses.py:
- error_response docstring claimed the error info lives at top level
  `error`. Implementation puts it under `data.error` (consistent with
  the success envelope). Implementation is correct; docstring updated.
- paginated_response docstring used snake_case keys (`per_page`,
  `total_pages`, etc). Implementation uses lowercase concatenated per
  CONTRIBUTING.md. Docstring updated to match.

Documentation:
- docs/PLUGINS.md: bundled plugins (six, with what they track and
  caveats per ADR), planned plugins (measuringtools as the scaffold
  canary per ADR-005), distribution conventions for sister-site
  plugins per ADR-003, naming policy.
- docs/ROADMAP.md: phase status table (0-5 done, 6 in progress),
  must-have work for 1.0 (Asset.mapx/mapy, equipment migration,
  printers retirement, frontend hook contract, per-plugin Alembic
  chains), nice-to-have (measuringtools plugin, frontend scaffolding,
  marketplace listing, surface-diff tooling), deferred (multi-tenancy,
  pip-installable plugins, event bus). Defines what 1.0.0 means as a
  contract.

Test count unchanged: 101 passing. Naming/style check green.

Roadmap

shopdb-flask is at __contract_version__ = '0.2.0' (pre-1.0). This document captures what stands between today and a stable 1.0.0 release. Maintained as scope evolves; supersedes nothing in the ADRs.

What's left before tagging 1.0.0

Must-have

  • Asset model fully wired. Asset.mapx, Asset.mapy columns, AssetRelationship.inheritsposition, AssetRelationship.propagatesthroughid columns. Models match the locked ADR-001 surface that resolve_asset_position already targets.
  • Equipment data migration script for facilities migrating from legacy ASP shopdb. One-shot script under scripts/migration/. See migrating-asset-schema for the policy. Per ADR-001, only category='Equipment' AND machinenumber IS NOT NULL migrates.
  • Printers retirement. Legacy PrinterData model, printers_bp legacy blueprint, and the frontend PrinterForm.vue references to printer.printerdata.* get removed in lockstep. Coordinated with the equipment migration.
  • Frontend hook contract. Vue side equivalents for the backend hook system: how plugins expose asset-detail components, map markers, search-result renderers. Requires its own design ADR.
  • Per-plugin Alembic migrations. The framework supports them via shopdb/plugins/migrations.py; bundled plugins still rely on db.create_all(). Move each bundled plugin onto its own version chain before sister sites adopt.

Nice-to-have

  • measuringtools plugin built using the scaffold (validates the scaffold under realistic conditions).
  • Frontend scaffolding skill (the backend has flask plugin new; the frontend stub is currently manual copy-paste).
  • Marketplace listing site (PLUGINS.md is a one-pager; a proper listing with links to sister-site plugins becomes useful when there are more than three external plugins).
  • Plugin contract surface diff tooling. Today version bumps are manual judgment; a CI check that diffs the contract surface against the previous tag would catch missed bumps. See ADR-002.
  • Calibration cycles, maintenance windows, downtime tracking (domain extensions; would likely live in the equipment and measuringtools plugins).

Deferred (out of scope for 1.0)

  • Multi-tenancy (rejected by ADR-004; revisit only if more than five sites adopt and operational overhead becomes painful).
  • Pip-installable plugins (deferred per ADR-003 v2). Filesystem distribution stays the v1 model.
  • Event bus on BasePlugin (removed per ADR-001; add via new ADR if a real use case appears).
  • Frontend rebuild beyond Vue 3 + Pinia + Vite (the existing stack is fine).

What 1.0.0 means

Tagging 1.0.0 is a commitment that the contract surface is stable for at least the next minor version cycle. Plugin authors at sister sites can pin core_version: ">=1.0.0,<2.0.0" and trust their plugin will not break on framework patches.

Concretely, 1.0.0 ships when:

  1. ADR-001's full contract surface is implemented in code, not just documented (Asset.mapx, RelationshipType.propagatesthroughid, etc.)
  2. The contract test suite covers every documented hook with both happy-path and a "broken plugin" failure-isolation test
  3. At least one external plugin (likely measuringtools from the scaffold canary) has been built end-to-end with no contract changes required mid-build
  4. The deploy runbook (DEPLOY.md) has been validated by an actual fresh-host deploy

Decision log pointers

When a roadmap item gets prioritized, document the why in a new ADR and link from this file. The ADRs are the canonical source for design decisions; this file is the prioritized backlog.

  • ADR-001 - Asset as platform contract
  • ADR-002 - Plugin contract versioning
  • ADR-003 - Plugin distribution model
  • ADR-004 - Deployment topology (per-site)
  • ADR-005 - Equipment vs measuringtools
  • ADR-006 - Collector contract pattern
