-/**
- * dsh-sidecard-ask — Host half.
- *
- * Responsibilities (the Client half owns every pixel):
- *   1. Serve the plugin's own JSON + SSE API under `/sidecard-ask/api`.
- *   2. Own the plugin's configuration: built-in defaults, the bundle patch
- *      layer, and the user layer persisted to
- *      `<DSH_HOME>/sidecard-ask/config.json`.
- *   3. Run one independent "side answer" per request: a child Agent started
- *      through `ctx.subagents` whose live deltas are bridged from the
- *      process-local `agent/assistant-stream` event onto the SSE response.
- *
- * Why a child agent for the side card: a child started by the in-process
- * spawn provider has its OWN session and system prompt and inherits NO parent
- * context (`inheritsParentContext === false`), which is exactly the
- * "independent attached card" semantics — the main conversation stays clean,
- * and the card can be closed without touching it.
- *
- * Deliberate API choices (see README「版本适配」for the per-version matrix):
- *   - `inject: ['webServer']` instead of a one-shot `ctx.get('webServer')`:
- *     a plugin row usually mounts BEFORE the web server publishes, and a
- *     one-shot read would return undefined forever.
- *   - No `Config` export: declaring one needs the harness's schema package,
- *     which this plugin must not depend on. `normalizeConfig` validates and
- *     defaults the row config instead, and reports problems through
- *     `/sidecard-ask/api/state` rather than failing activation.
- *   - Every optional service (`subagents`, `agents`) is probed at call time,
- *     so an older or slimmer composition degrades to a wire error the Client
- *     renders, never to a failed plugin fiber.
- *

+ *   2. Own the plugin's configuration: built-in defaults, the bundle patch
+ *      layer, and the user layer persisted to
+ *      `<DSH_HOME>/sidecard-ask/config.json`.
+ *   3. Run one independent "side answer" per request: a child Agent started
+ *      through `ctx.subagents` whose live deltas are bridged from the
+ *      process-local `agent/assistant-stream` event onto the SSE response.
+ *
+ * Why a child agent for the side card: a child started by the in-process
+ * spawn provider has its OWN session and system prompt and inherits NO parent
+ * context (`inheritsParentContext === false`), which is exactly the
+ * "independent attached card" semantics — the main conversation stays clean,
+ * and the card can be closed without touching it.
+ *
+ * Deliberate API choices (see README「版本适配」for the per-version matrix):
+ *   - `inject: ['webServer']` instead of a one-shot `ctx.get('webServer')`:
+ *     a plugin row usually mounts BEFORE the web server publishes, and a
+ *     one-shot read would return undefined forever.
+ *   - No `Config` export: declaring one needs the harness's schema package,
+ *     which this plugin must not depend on. `normalizeConfig` validates and
+ *     defaults the row config instead, and reports problems through
+ *     `/sidecard-ask/api/state` rather than failing activation.
+ *   - Every optional service (`subagents`, `agents`) is probed at call time,
+ *     so an older or slimmer composition degrades to a wire error the Client
+ *     renders, never to a failed plugin fiber.
