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.

Neither the Plymouth theme nor the login/lock theming was ever installed by a
restore, so a rebuilt box came up with stock distro branding.
bin/boot-branding.sh installs all three, and the desktop stage of
restore-linux.sh calls it. Each block self-skips when its greeter is absent or
already current, so it is cheap to re-run and works whether the box boots
lightdm or SDDM:
- Plymouth: a real copy under /usr/share/plymouth/themes, not a symlink into
the user home. The stock initramfs hook copies the theme path verbatim, so a
symlink into an unmounted home dangles at early boot and Plymouth drops to
text mode -- which is what assets/boot/initramfs-hook-my-custom-logo existed
to work around. With a real copy that hook is unnecessary.
- SDDM: the NexusOS-QML theme, selected via /etc/sddm.conf.d.
- slick-greeter: cannot lay out a custom login screen, so the logo and wordmark
are baked into assets/themes/greeter/greeter-background.svg and its own
centered login box lands underneath.
Main.qml now loads background.png instead of background.svg. QtSvg implements
SVG Tiny 1.2, which has no <pattern>, so the brushed-metal and machine-line
textures silently dropped out at runtime. librsvg renders them, so the SVG is
rasterized at 1920x1200 and committed alongside it; the regeneration command is
in the comment above the source: line.

Newer distros drop the python3-venv transitional package once it no longer
resolves to a real pythonX.Y-venv candidate, which crashed sync.py's venv
creation with a raw traceback. Prep now resolves the exact versioned
package via apt-cache, and skips xfce4-genmon-plugin/plank/blueman on
boxes with no xfconf-query so a non-XFCE box doesn't get noisy "unable to
locate package" failures for a panel it'll never run. venv_python() also
fails with an actionable message instead of an uncaught CalledProcessError.

Debian apt ships EOL Node 18 which crashes Vite 8. Prep stage installs Node 20
from NodeSource when node is missing or <20; package.json declares engines.

PowerShell resolves ExternalScript (.ps1) ahead of Application (.cmd), and both
lived in the directory the installer puts on PATH -- so in PowerShell `ncp` ran
the .ps1 and was execution-policy-bound again, the exact thing the .cmd exists
to avoid. Its other justification (giving ncp to pwsh on Linux) stopped being
true once /usr/local/bin/ncp existed: pwsh runs a PATH symlink to a shell script
as an Application. A test now prevents the file coming back.

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.

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.
