added patterns
A plugin type that a page shows in full lives in its own example_plugin_test.go and is referenced as a whole-file src= fence; the Example that exercises it is a separate #Example fence
Descriptions containing ': ' are double-quoted in frontmatter (goccy/go-yaml rejects them unquoted)
Commands in docs are written as summer <name> or ./bin/acme <name> so the command checker verifies them; ./bin/<app> placeholders are never used because the checker cannot see them

Hand-written Go fences are never used: a GORM-callback sketch and a Commands() sketch were replaced by prose rather than shipping unverified Go

Phase 11.1 Plan 03: Framework content A (Setup, Architecture, Plugins, Console) Summary

Sixteen new or rewritten guide pages cover installation to serve, a WinterCMS concept map with 50 checked identifiers, the binary and request lifecycles, plugin registration, scheduling, extending and testing, and every summer and application command. Each Go block on them is a copy of an Example that go test runs.

Performance

  • Duration: about 15 min
  • Started: 2026-09-30T20:03:31Z
  • Completed: 2026-09-30T20:18Z
  • Tasks: 3
  • Files modified: 28

Accomplishments

  • docs/setup/coming-from-wintercms.md has a 21-row concept table (WinterCMS, SummerCMS identifiers, module link), a "What is not provided" table (CMS pages, themes, components, AJAX and Snowboard, media manager, import/export, sorting, collections, behaviours, cache, session), and a "Plugin.php in Go" section with a PHP fence next to the verified Go plugin.
  • Architecture explains the single binary and headless model, the module map by concern, summer versus the application binary, go.mod replace and go.work workflows with summer plugin:add, the generated start-up sequence, Register-then-Boot, the typed container, lagoon.OnDatabase, and surf's wrapping order (read from surf.Router.wrap: CORS, recovery, locale, body limit, route middleware, constraints).
  • Plugins covers ID rules (from pluginIDRe), the capability interfaces, embedded config, lang and mail files, the scaffolded layout, schedule semantics and validation, leader election, schedule:run --once for cron, events with the three dispatch modes, services, optional dependencies, GORM callbacks and forking, and the test workflow including the ICU database requirement.
  • Console lists every runtime command with flags (migrations, key, serve, route:list, admin, queue, schedule, websockets), the seven commands summer delegates, what each make: command writes (from internal/build/artifact.go), the bonfire API for writing commands, and the parity and docs utilities with their flags and defaults.
  • Installation now walks from go install through summer build, the ICU database, config/http.yaml, SUMMER_ variables with <secret> markers, migrate, route:list and serve --addr 127.0.0.1:8080, with the known issues as a [!WARNING] callout. Its ExampleCall section is kept.
  • TestDocsRequiredPages asserts all 18 required URLs load and build as .html and .md.

Decisions Made

Deviations from Plan

Auto-fixed Issues

1. [Rule 3 - Blocking] The plugin type could not live in the Example body

  • Found during: Task 1
  • Issue: The plan's #ExamplePlugin fence shows only the Example body, and Go methods cannot be declared inside a function. The "Plugin.php in Go" section needs the four party.Plugin methods to be visible.
  • Fix: BlogPlugin and its methods are in modules/party/example_plugin_test.go, shown as a whole-file src= fence. ExamplePlugin in example_test.go uses it and is shown as the planned #ExamplePlugin fence.
  • Files modified: modules/party/example_plugin_test.go (one file beyond the plan's list)
  • Commit: d6003cd

2. [Rule 1 - Bug] Frontmatter descriptions with a colon failed to parse

  • Found during: Task 2
  • Issue: Four descriptions contained : and goccy/go-yaml rejected them (mapping value is not allowed in this context).
  • Fix: Those description values are double-quoted.
  • Commit: 1f8f5e1

3. [Rule 1 - Accuracy] Claims corrected against the code before commit

  • A statement that duplicate command names fail at start-up was false (bonfire has no duplicate check). The page now describes the real behaviour, and the gap is logged in .planning/todos/pending/bonfire-duplicate-command-names.md.
  • Two hand-written Go fences (a GORM callback in Boot and a Commands() method) were replaced by prose, because Go fences in docs pages must be src= copies.
  • The wire description was rewritten from its README (HTML characters unescaped, no trailing newline, [] for nil lists, Carbon timestamps).

Notes

  • registration.md does not link the Console scaffolding page, because that page did not exist when Task 2 committed. It points at the make: commands in prose instead.
  • gofmt -l modules/party lists registry_test.go, which this plan did not touch.

Total deviations: 2 auto-fixed (1 blocking, 1 bug) and 1 set of accuracy corrections. Impact: none on scope.

Issues Encountered

None. The in-flight Phase 11 review edits (modules/lagoon/transaction*.go, the check-phase10/11 scripts and the Phase 11 review files) were never staged or touched. go test -short ./... was green at every commit with them in the tree.

Verification

  • go vet ./... and go test -short ./... are green.
  • All six new Examples and ExampleCall report --- PASS.
  • TestDocsTree, TestDocsRequiredPages, TestDocsAIOutputsInSync and TestDocsBuildRealTree pass. docs:build writes 40 pages.
  • go run ./cmd/summer docs:build --check reports no problems. docs:sync reports every snippet up to date.
  • scripts/check-phase11.1.sh --docs and --forbidden pass.
  • Every acceptance grep in the plan matches: 50 distinct identifiers on the concept map, 8 Architecture and Plugins pages, 4 Setup and 5 Console pages, ICU_LOCALE and the ExampleCall fence in installation.md, and no 0.0.0.0 in setup or console.

Known Stubs

None.

User Setup Required

None.

Next Phase Readiness

Plan 11.1-04 can add the Backend, Database and Services sections between Plugins and Console in site.yaml, link the concept map rows to its new guide pages, and append its pages to requiredPages.

Self-Check: PASSED

All created files exist. Commits d6003cd, 1f8f5e1, a896f3f and 8254fb9 are in the log.
