The three things core owes the client half before it can leave, all additive,
all MODULE_API 1.2.0 → 1.3.0.
`player.invite.accepted` is the third extension slot. Core's invite page owned a
UO game-account step — it read a `gameAccountSignup` flag out of core's own
settings and posted to a shard route — and an invite is a core concept that
staff receive too, so the page stays and its optional next step becomes a slot.
Named for the place, like the other two. Whether there is a step at all is the
filling module's call, made from data core does not have; core keeps the shell,
the skip control and the destination.
`icon` on a nav item, because without it the six extracted UO rows would have
been the only text-only entries in a sidebar where every other row has a glyph.
Core supplies no fallback — an invented one is core making a presentation choice
for content it knows nothing about. `icon` was already among the fields an
override may not touch, so the concept predates a module being able to send one.
`api.BASE` was in §3.5 from the first draft and never actually published.
`request` is fetch-only, so an EventSource builds its own URL, and the shard's
live feed is two of them; the alternative is a module hardcoding `/api/v1`,
which asserts something about core that core has not promised.
`AcceptInvite` is the one legitimate reader of `extensionFor` outside Slot.jsx:
the answer decides a NAVIGATION, not a decoration. Decoration goes inside
`<Slot wrap>`, which is why `hasExtension` stayed deleted.

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.
