+    git-branch chip. The entry receives the dock owner share (`{ session,
+    input }`) plus the standard `useSessions` / `useWorkspaces` selector hooks,
+    so the hero phase (`composerPhase === 'blank' && (openState === 'open' ||
+    blank)`) and the target workspace come from framework props instead of DOM
+    probing. The row stays **in flow** — `display:flex` with the official hero
+    row's 20px indent, no absolute positioning — so the framework's list-slot
+    arrangement keeps it clear of every other plugin's dock row. It renders
+    only on the session-creation page; an active session keeps its entry in the
+    session header, so the two never appear together.

+    is live (`slots.inject` fires only for declared slots and disposes on
+    collapse); the components render only while holding the best live claim
+    (`extras` > `dock` > fallback). The framework arranges *different plugins*

+    alternative seats, so this election is the plugin's own duty.

+  rendered by the chip itself (opening upward from the dock row, downward from
+  the hero row). `store.anchor` names the owner, and the overlay wrapper stands
+  down whenever a chip owns it, so the panel never renders twice.
+- Styling: all surfaces use the official `--dsw-alias-*` design tokens
