feat(modules): interleave module nav, derive moderator confinement
Phase 2, PR 8 of docs/website/MODULE_SYSTEM.md 2.7 - the nav half PR 7 deferred, plus the two seams 1.4 and 1.5 asked for. withModuleNav (client/src/modules/nav.js) merges an installed module's rows into core's three navs BEFORE the admin-override merge, and that ordering is the design. applyNavOverrides and buildPublicNav are keyed by `to` and drop any key their base array does not declare, so rows appended after the merge would be unorderable, unrelabellable and unhideable in Admin - Navigation. Today's UO rows are all three of those things, so appending would make the extraction a visible regression for anyone who has ever edited their nav. Merging first means a module row is an ordinary row downstream: nothing in navOverrides.js, NavEditor.jsx or the layouts knows a module exists. MOD_PATHS is gone. Moderator visibility and the redirect that confines a moderator both derive from each row's own `roles`, in the new plain-JS lib/adminNav.js (plain so the DOM-less runner can reach it). Two rows move, both toward what the server already permitted: Dashboard, whose roles had always named moderator, and My Characters, which is ungated self-service. That also fixes a defect predating the module system. The redirect was a THIRD hardcoded list - three path prefixes against MOD_PATHS' five paths - and they disagreed about /admin/houses, so a moderator who clicked Houses in their own sidebar was bounced back to Moderation. The derived allow-list is computed from the BASE nav, never the override-merged one: an override is presentation and must not move an authorization boundary either way. The feature seam (modules/features.jsx + modules/featureGate.js) resolves a row's `feature` against the provider its OWN module registered, so the namespace comes from the registration and no string carries a parsed prefix. Core registers useShardFlags under the owner id `core` - the client twin of registries.registerCore() - so the ten shard-gated header rows already run through the seam and Phase 3 deletes a registration instead of rewriting SiteHeader. Every unknown fails open: no provider, a null answer while a fetch is in flight, or a junk return all show the link, because the server is the gate and hiding a page from someone entitled to it is the worse mistake. 933 server tests (unchanged - this PR is client-only), 160 client tests (+37). routes.manifest.json unchanged at 230 routes; the OpenAPI spec regenerates byte-identical. Re-ran the MODULE_API.md 7.7 browser smoke, since this is the seam that rule exists for. A throwaway module registering nav in all three areas and a provider granting one flag and withholding another: the row lands inside core's Moderation group rather than an appended block, the withheld row does not render, a moderator reaches both /admin/houses and the module's admin page, and an admin can relabel a module row and have it persist and apply. Zero CSP reports, zero console errors. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

// Which nav rows a viewer may see, when the answer belongs to a module.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// Phase 2, PR 8 of docs/website/MODULE_SYSTEM.md §2.7 (§1.5 states the problem);
|
||||
// the contract is docs/website/MODULE_API.md §3.3.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// Ten of the sixteen rows in the public header carry a `feature`, and every one
|
||||
// of them is a shard surface an admin can disable or gate to a higher audience.
|
||||
// The provider that answers those questions — `useShardFeatures` — moves out
|
||||
// with the module, so core cannot keep calling it directly and still be a core.
|
||||
// It keeps a generic seam instead, and the module fills it.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// **The namespace comes from the registration, not from the string.** A row's
|
||||
// `feature` is resolved by the provider its OWN module registered, so a module
|
||||
// author writes `feature: 'status'` exactly as it reads today: nothing parses a
|
||||
// prefix, and a typo'd namespace is not a thing that can exist. Core's own rows
|
||||
// carry no `moduleId` and resolve against the owner id `core`, which is what
|
||||
// core registers `useShardFeatures` under until Phase 3 moves those rows into
|
||||
// the module and they arrive stamped `uo` instead.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// Everything here fails OPEN, and that is deliberate and unchanged from
|
||||
// useShardFeatures' own posture: this is presentation, the gate is server-side
|
||||
// (a disabled feature 404s and an out-of-rung one 403s whether or not a link was
|
||||
// rendered), so an unknown answer shows the link rather than blanking the nav.
|
||||
// The one thing a UI mistake must never do here is hide a page from someone
|
||||
// entitled to it.
