Brings the public tree back in line with the development repo after several
weeks of drift caused by a stale publish include list.
New:
- In-app update path: GET /update/check compares the checkout against
origin/main and POST /update/apply runs `ncp upgrade` detached (pull,
rebuild, restart). The sidebar shows the version, checks on click, and
offers an "update available" pill.
- Projects: a project workspace groups chats and RAG documents, with
per-project instructions and document retrieval scoped to the active
project. Replaces the standalone Documents page.
- modules/: auto-discovered feature plugins (mail, network) with their
frontend counterparts and tests.
- Memory curation runs in-process (synapse/memory/curator.py) on the chat
model when a conversation goes idle. The separate memory service on :8001
is gone, along with the launcher lines that started it.
Also: the KDE theme, panel and Promethean terminal assets, the full test
suite, and VERSION 1.2.0.

New Modules entry in Flagship features + Architecture describes the
modules/ plugin auto-discovery. Chat/vision/voice, action tools,
Layout, and Configuration reworded from prose/tables into bullets for
scannability.
Bugs go through this repo's Issues tab with an ncp doctor ask; feature
requests stay pointed at NexusOS-requests so the bug tracker doesn't
mix with the planning backlog.
Ported from the private repo (bin/publish.sh's README-only path): adds a
Flagship features section, reorders Quick start (Linux first), splits out
a Promethean section, corrects the ncp cross-platform parity note, and
replaces the stale in-README Roadmap with a pointer to NexusOS-requests.

Ported from the private repo via bin/publish.sh, plus a manual catch-up
on files that had drifted out of sync before today:
- launch_nexus.ps1: health-check based restart decisions instead of a
bare port-listen check (a wedged leftover process squatting a port
used to look "already running" and block the real service from
starting), a script-path quoting fix for Start-Process, hidden
console via a wscript.exe wrapper (bin/launch_nexus_hidden.vbs), and
a taskbar/window icon for the native app window.
- Sidebar: slim icon+text nav rows instead of bulky bordered buttons,
tighter spacing throughout.
- Settings: full-width layout, a Vite dev-server Start/Stop toggle
(synapse/frontend_manager.py + /frontend/* endpoints), and the
Linux-only Icon Branding section now gated on the new /status
`platform` field instead of always rendering.
- Chatbot: a Think toggle next to the model picker, so extended
thinking can be flipped without leaving the chat page.
- management/ncp.py: faster start/stop polling (0.25s steps instead of
1s), Vite no longer blocks `ncp start` on Linux and is skipped
outright on Windows.
Note: the private repo also has a Mail (IMAP/SMTP) feature; it's
intentionally not included here, so the Mail-only pieces of main.py,
App.jsx, and requirements-windows.txt were left out of this port.
- install-windows.ps1: warn about a leftover profile-based ncp() that
would shadow ncp.cmd; the "press any key to close" footer now skips
the wait when stdin is redirected (was hanging indefinitely) and
exits cleanly instead of Stop-Process when it owns the window; pulls
nomic-embed-text alongside the chat/memory models.
- management/ncp.py: ncp start / start -b bring Ollama up automatically;
longer timeout + real error message on a slow model warm.
- synapse/nexus_config.py: DEFAULT_EMBED_MODEL, single source of truth
alongside DEFAULT_CHAT_MODEL/DEFAULT_MEMORY_MODEL.
- synapse/ollama_manager.py: is_available() cached instead of spawning a
process per /status poll; is_running() timeout dropped 2s -> 0.5s so a
healthy backend stops reading as dead; embed() reads the new default
instead of a hardcoded string; de-duplicated serve-env setup.
Ported via bin/publish.sh from NexusOS-jon.

Process scope for the current window, LocalMachine RemoteSigned so it persists
and ncp works from later shells without -ExecutionPolicy Bypass.

Ports the ncp PATH work from upstream. Registering ncp as a shell-profile
function failed three ways on Windows: the default Restricted execution policy
blocks the profile itself, profiles don't exist outside PowerShell (cmd, Win+R,
Task Scheduler), and the self-elevating installer writes the admin's profile.
Windows now ships management/ncp.cmd and the installer appends management\ to
the Machine PATH via [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable -- never setx, which
truncates PATH at 1024 chars. A .cmd is exempt from the execution policy.
Linux symlinks /usr/local/bin/ncp -> management/nexus-cli.sh, falling back to
the old .bashrc function when sudo is unavailable.
Also renames requirements-wsl.txt to requirements-windows.txt and purges stale
WSL references, including vite.config.js's dev-server comment and
controlpanel.py's "Check WSLg." error string.

gen-nvidia-reqs.py wrote requirements-nvidia.txt with os.linesep, so running
it on Windows produced CRLF. Pinned to newline="\n".

bin/install.sh still rsynced --delete from a backup path retired in July, so
the documented Linux install both failed and could erase a working tree. Every
step it claimed to do already lives in bin/sync.py, shared with Windows.
Root ./install.sh is now a thin wrapper over `sync.py restore`, so deployment
stays one bash command. It also registers ncp/promethean in ~/.bashrc, which
was the only thing the old script uniquely did.
Split restore-linux.sh into runtime (Ollama binary, shell aliases) and desktop
(XFCE panel, theme, os-release). Only desktop writes outside the repo, it now
auto-skips off XFCE, and `--no-desktop` skips it explicitly. Two tests keep the
stage names in sync and the $HOME writes confined to the desktop stage.
