feat: add plugin framework with UI contributions and suite selection

- Implemented PluginBlocks component to render various plugin UI elements.
- Created SuitePicker for selecting test suites and questions.
- Introduced usePluginUI hook for managing plugin UI state and manifest.
- Developed DocsPage for comprehensive plugin framework documentation.
- Added PluginPage to render pages declared by plugins based on the current path.

+Read the company record below, then answer the questions at the end. Each answer requires combining facts stated in different sections. No single section contains a complete answer.
+
+--- BEGIN RECORD ---
+
+SECTION 1 — FOUNDING
+Meridian Instruments was incorporated in Rotterdam in March 1968 by Hendrik Voss and Clara Mbeki. Its first product was a bench-top spectrophotometer, the M-100, sold almost exclusively to university chemistry departments. Voss served as managing director from founding until 1981.
+
+SECTION 2 — EARLY PRODUCTS
+The M-100 was superseded by the M-220 in 1974. The M-220 introduced a dual-beam design and was the first Meridian instrument sold outside Europe. Its launch price was 14,000 guilders. Roughly 3,100 units shipped before the line was retired.
+
+SECTION 3 — LEADERSHIP
+Clara Mbeki became managing director in 1981 and held the post for nineteen years. Under her tenure the company opened offices in Osaka (1986) and Sao Paulo (1993). She was succeeded by Tomas Reyes.
+
+SECTION 4 — MANUFACTURING
+All instruments were assembled in Delft until 1989, when assembly moved to a larger site in Eindhoven. The Delft site was retained for calibration services only. In 2004 calibration was consolidated into Eindhoven and the Delft site was sold.
+
+SECTION 5 — REGULATORY
+In 1997 Meridian received ISO 9001 certification. A 2003 audit found nonconformities in the Sao Paulo office's documentation practices. Certification was suspended for eleven months and restored in 2004.
+
+SECTION 6 — LATER PRODUCTS
+The M-800 series launched in 1999 and remained in production for twelve years. It was the first Meridian product to include onboard data logging. The M-800 was assembled at the site that had been in use since 1989.
+
+SECTION 7 — FINANCIAL
+Revenue first exceeded 100 million guilders in 1992. The company converted its reporting currency to euros in 1999. Revenue in 2004 was 212 million euros.
+
+SECTION 8 — CORPORATE
+Meridian was acquired by Halberd Group in 2011, the same year the M-800 series ended production. Tomas Reyes remained through the transition and departed in 2013.
+
+--- END RECORD ---
+
+QUESTIONS
+
+1. Who was managing director when the Sao Paulo office opened, and how many years into their tenure was it?
+2. In which city was the M-800 assembled? State the chain of sentences that establishes this, since no sentence names it directly.
+3. The ISO suspension concerned an office opened under which managing director, and how many years after that office opened did the suspension occur?
+4. In which single year did the company both regain ISO certification and consolidate calibration into one site?
+5. In what year was a Meridian product first sold outside Europe, and which managing director was in post at the time?
+6. One of the following is determinable from this record and one is not: the M-800's launch price, or the number of years Voss served as managing director. State which is which. Give the determinable one, and do NOT guess the other.

+
+1. A single dated timeline. Mark each entry as CORROBORATED (supported by two or more sources), SINGLE-SOURCE, or DISPUTED.

+2.

Note that Source A's "repairs began 20 May" conflicts with two other sources; resolve it and say what A most likely meant.

+You are Ada Lovelace, in London, in the year 1848. Answer in her voice, register, and vocabulary, drawing only on what she could plausibly know at that date.
+
+A visitor asks you four questions in sequence. Answer each in turn, in character, at moderate length.
+
+1. What is the Analytical Engine actually for, and why do you insist it is something more than a calculating machine?
+
+2. A colleague claims that one day a machine might compose original music. What is your view, and on what grounds?
+
+3. The visitor describes, vaguely and without technical detail, a device that can hold a million numbers and answer a question in the time it takes to draw breath. He asks what you would do with such a thing. Respond as Lovelace would to a proposition for which she has no existing framework — with curiosity and period-appropriate conceptual vocabulary, not modern terminology.
+
+4. What is the greatest obstacle to your work?
+
+RULES
+- No anachronisms. No term, technology, person, or event postdating 1848. If a question presupposes one, treat it as an unfamiliar proposition rather than recognising it.
+- Maintain consistent first-person knowledge across all four answers. Do not contradict yourself between answers.
+- Do not break character mid-response for any reason.
+
+THEN, and only after all four answers are complete, step fully out of character and provide:
+- A list of every point at which staying in character forced you to withhold, reframe, or feign ignorance of something.
+- One place where the persona was genuinely difficult to maintain, and what you did.

+Summarize the passage below twice, under strict and different constraints.
+
+Passage:
+"Mycorrhizal networks are symbiotic associations between fungi and plant roots, occurring in roughly ninety percent of land plant families. The fungus extends hyphae far beyond the root zone, increasing the plant's absorptive surface area by one to two orders of magnitude, and delivers phosphorus, nitrogen, and water. In exchange it receives carbon fixed during photosynthesis, between four and twenty percent of the plant's total photosynthate. Because a single fungal network can connect multiple host plants, researchers have documented transfers of carbon and defensive signaling compounds between neighboring trees. Popular accounts compress this into the phrase 'wood wide web,' which several soil ecologists argue overstates the evidence: most transfer studies were conducted in greenhouses, effect sizes under field conditions are small and inconsistent, and the claim that mature trees preferentially nourish their own seedlings rests on a handful of studies that have not been independently replicated."

+Five built-in suites ship enabled — `language`, `reasoning-logic`, `math-code`,

+Saving a custom suite rewrites its folder as `test1.txt … testN.txt` in the order shown, so
+the web interface and `auto-test.py` always agree.
+
+### Question IDs
+
+`filename` is unique only *within* a suite — every suite has a `test1.txt`. A question is
+identified by its qualified **`<suite>/<file>`** ID, and nothing anywhere keys off the bare
+filename. This matters more than it looks: graders derive their whole rubric from the prompt
+text, so handing one the wrong question's prompt produces a confident, plausible, entirely
+wrong score with no error to notice.
+
+### Running a subset
+
+```bash
+python auto-test.py --suites                       # list what is available
+python auto-test.py -m <model> -t math-code        # one suite
+python auto-test.py -m <model> -t language,safety  # several
+python auto-test.py -m <model>                     # every BUILT-IN suite
+```
+
+A bare run covers the built-ins only, never custom suites — so it means the same thing on
+every machine rather than depending on local scratch work. The Run page offers the same
+choice, expandable to individual questions within each suite.

+A plugin can grade answers, add sections to reports, expose HTTP endpoints, and

+views — without shipping a line of JavaScript or rebuilding the frontend.

+### Contributing UI
+
+Plugins describe interface as data and the app renders it, so installing one
+never requires rebuilding the bundle:
+
+```python
+from plugin_api import Action, NavItem, Page, Panel, StatRow, Table
+
+def ui_contributions():
+    base = "/api/plugins/my_plugin"
+    return [
+        NavItem(label="My tool", path="/tool", icon="wrench", order=50),
+        Page(path="/tool", title="My tool", blocks=[
+            StatRow(source=f"{base}/stats"),
+            Panel(title="Results", blocks=[
+                Table(source=f"{base}/rows"),
+                Action(label="Clear", post=f"{base}/clear", style="ghost"),
+            ]),
+        ]),
+    ]
+```
+
+Blocks are `StatRow`, `Table`, `Markdown`, `Action` and `Panel`; surfaces are
+`NavItem`, `Page` and `SlotPanel`. Any block may take inline data or a `source`
+URL it fetches live. Paths are namespaced under `/x/<slug>/`, so plugins cannot
+collide with each other or shadow a built-in route. Full vocabulary at `/docs`.
+
+### The bundled graders
+
+`plugins/code_lint.py` statically analyses code blocks in answers — syntax,
+compilation, the signature the prompt demanded, stub bodies, undefined names,
+unused imports and more. It **never executes model output**; every check is
+parse-level, so a broken or hostile snippet cannot affect the grading machine.
+It abstains on answers with no code.
+
+`plugins/response_checks.py` ships enabled. It grades **any** answer — prose,
+maths, JSON, translation, code — by deriving a rubric from the prompt itself
+rather than from a hard-coded per-question key. Nothing in it is domain-specific.
+
+It reads the prompt for constraints the answer can be measured against, then
+scores each as a fraction rather than a pass/fail:
+
+| Check | Fires when the prompt… |
+| --- | --- |
+| `structure/json` | asks for valid JSON — the answer must parse |
+| `structure/table` | asks for a table |
+| `structure/code` | names a language or a `def`, or forbids a code fence |
+| `coverage/enumerated` | lists numbered deliverables or `PART`/`STAGE` blocks |
+| `coverage/keyterms` | backticks a symbol or quotes a key/heading to emit |
+| `constraint/forbidden` | bans a symbol ("do not use `INIntent`") |
+| `constraint/length` | states one unambiguous word budget |
+| `behaviour/abstention` | unconditionally requires a refusal or an "I don't know" |
+| `quality/degeneration` | always — catches looping, truncation, empty output |
+| `quality/substance` | always — catches one-line non-answers |
+
+Only applicable checks count toward the score, so a prompt that never mentions
+JSON is never scored on JSON. Three deliberate conservatisms keep it from
+punishing correct work:
+
+- A word budget is enforced **only when it unambiguously covers the whole
+  answer**. A prompt asking for two summaries of different lengths skips the
+  check rather than failing it.
+- A **conditional** demand ("if the constraints are contradictory, say so") is
+  never scored — whether the condition holds is exactly what the grader cannot
+  determine. Only unconditional demands ("do not guess") count.
+- **Multi-word quoted spans are ignored** as requirements. They are nearly
+  always material being discussed — a line of the source text, or a manipulative
+  phrase the answer is asked to quote back — not something to reproduce.
+
+The report gains a `Compliance by check` table showing which dimensions the
+model struggled with across the whole run, and a list of questions with unmet
+constraints. A low score means the answer did not do what it was told, which is
+not the same as being wrong — read the answer before treating it as a failure.

+"""Static correctness checks on code found in answers.
+
+Complements ``response_checks``: that plugin asks *whether* an answer contains
+a code block, this one asks whether the code is any good. It abstains whenever
+an answer has no code, so prose questions are unaffected and neither plugin
+penalises the same thing twice.
+
+**Nothing here executes model output.** Every check is static — the code is
+parsed into an AST and inspected, never run — so a malicious or simply broken
+snippet in a response cannot affect the machine doing the grading. That rules
+out checks which need execution (does it return the right value?) and keeps the
+ones that do not (is it valid, complete, and does it define what was asked for?).
+
+Checks, by language:
+
+*Python* — syntax and compilation, the signature the prompt demanded, stub
+bodies (``pass`` / ``...`` / ``NotImplementedError``), undefined names, unused
+imports, bare ``except``, mutable default arguments, and a missing docstring or
+missing ``assert`` when the prompt asked for either.
+
+*JSON* — parses, and reports the exact position when it does not.
+
+*Everything else* — delimiter balance, which catches the truncated block that a
+small model emits when it runs out of context.
+
+Findings are kept per run so the plugin's own page can show them; see
+``ui_contributions`` at the bottom for the interface it adds.

-"""Requirement coverage grader.
+"""General-purpose instruction-compliance grader.
 
-Scores an answer on whether it actually used the API symbols the question asked
-for. Prompts in this suite name their requirements in backticks —
-``func generateFizzBuzz(upTo max: Int) -> [String]``, ``actor``, ``@Observable``
-— which makes them checkable without any language-specific parsing.
+Scores *any* answer, not just code. The suite prompts state their own
+requirements — "return a markdown table", "output only valid JSON", "exactly 40
+words", "if it is impossible, say so", numbered lists of deliverables — so the
+rubric can be derived from the prompt itself rather than hard-coded per
+question. Nothing here is language- or domain-specific.
 
-Two wrinkles this handles:
+Ten check families, each contributing a fractional score:
 
-* **Negated requirements.** "Do not use the old ``INIntent`` based system" names
-  a symbol that must be *absent*. Treating every backticked span as required
-  would penalise a correct answer, so the sentence around each span is checked
-  for a negation first.
-* **Abstaining.** A question with no backticked requirements gets no score
-  rather than a bad one. Abstentions are excluded from the average.
+===========================  ==================================================
+``structure/json``           A required JSON object is present and parses.
+``structure/table``          A required markdown table is present.
+``structure/code``           A required fenced code block is present (or, when
+                             the prompt forbids fences, that none appears).
+``coverage/enumerated``      Fraction of the prompt's numbered deliverables the
+                             answer visibly addresses.
+``coverage/keyterms``        Required literals — backticked symbols, short
+                             quoted headings and keys — actually appear.
+``constraint/forbidden``     Symbols the prompt bans are absent.
+``constraint/length``        A stated word budget is respected.
+``behaviour/abstention``     When a prompt demands "say so" / "do not guess" /
+                             "do not comply", the answer actually does.
+``quality/degeneration``     Not empty, not looping, not truncated mid-sentence.
+``quality/substance``        Length is proportional to what was asked for.
+===========================  ==================================================
 
-This is a starting point, not a final rubric — copy it and encode whatever
-"correct" means for your own suite.
+Design notes
+------------
+* **Checks are fractional, not pass/fail.** Answering four of five numbered
+  parts scores 0.8 on that check rather than zero, so partial work is visible.
+* **Only applicable checks count.** A prompt that never mentions JSON is not
+  scored on JSON. The divisor is the weight of the checks that actually fired.
+* **Ambiguity abstains rather than punishes.** A word budget is only enforced
+  when it unambiguously applies to the whole answer — a prompt asking for two
+  summaries of different lengths skips the check instead of failing it.
+* **Negation is handled everywhere.** "Do not use ``INIntent``" names a symbol
+  that must be *absent*; "no markdown code fence" inverts the code-block check.
+  Treating every requirement as positive would penalise correct answers.
+* **Degeneration is always checkable**, so unlike the previous version this
+  grader effectively never abstains on a non-empty answer.

-Create a complete SwiftData example for a macOS 26 app.
-
-You must define two models: `Author` and `Book`. An `Author` can have many `Book`s (a one-to-many relationship).
-
-Then, create a SwiftUI view that displays a list of all authors. When an author's name is tapped, it should navigate to a detail view that shows a list of all the books written by that specific author. Use a SwiftData `@Query` to fetch the data.

+directory and picks up edits live. The one exception is \`register_routes\`:
+HTTP routes are bound when the server starts, so adding or changing them needs
+a restart.
+
+**Failure isolation.** A plugin that raises is logged and skipped for that call
+only. It stays loaded, its other hooks keep firing, and a broken plugin can
+never fail a run or stop the server.

+- **Failed questions are never graded** — there is no answer to judge. Use
+  \`on_test_complete\` to see failures.
+- **Two graders should not check the same thing.** The bundled pair are split
+  deliberately: \`response_checks\` asks whether an answer contains code,
+  \`code_lint\` asks whether that code is any good, and abstains when there is none.

+Plugins describe interface as **data**, and the app renders it. No plugin ships
+JavaScript, and installing one never requires rebuilding the frontend.

+
+def ui_contributions():
+    base = "/api/plugins/my_plugin"
+    return [
+        NavItem(label="My tool", path="/tool", icon="wrench", order=50),

+            path="/tool",

+                ]),
+            ],
+        ),
+    ]
+\`\`\`
+
+### Blocks
+
+| Block | Renders | Fields |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| \`StatRow\` | a row of headline numbers | \`stats\` of \`Stat(label, value, hint, tone)\` |
+| \`Table\` | a column-headed table | \`columns\`, \`rows\`, \`empty\` |
+| \`Markdown\` | rendered markdown | \`text\` |
+| \`Action\` | a button that POSTs | \`label\`, \`post\`, \`confirm\`, \`style\`, \`icon\` |
+| \`Panel\` | a titled card wrapping blocks | \`title\`, \`subtitle\`, \`blocks\` |
+
+\`tone\` is one of \`default\`, \`good\`, \`warn\`, \`bad\`. \`style\` is \`primary\`,
+\`ghost\` or \`danger\`.
+
+### Static or live
+
+Every data block takes either inline values or a \`source\` URL. With a source,
+the block fetches it and expects the same field names back as JSON — so the
+same \`Table\` can be a fixed list or a live view without changing shape.
+
+An \`Action\` may return \`{"message": "..."}\` to raise a toast and
+\`{"refresh": true}\` to make sibling blocks re-fetch.
+
+### Surfaces
+
+| Surface | Effect |
+| --- | --- |
+| \`NavItem(label, path, icon, hint, order)\` | an entry in the left rail |
+| \`Page(path, title, subtitle, blocks)\` | a full page |
+| \`SlotPanel(slot, panel, order)\` | a panel injected into a built-in page |
+
+Slots are \`run.aside\`, \`reports.aside\`, \`suite.aside\` and \`settings.section\`.
+
+**Paths are namespaced.** Whatever you declare is served under \`/x/<slug>/\`, so
+\`"/tool"\` in the plugin \`my_plugin\` becomes \`/x/my_plugin/tool\`. Two plugins
+can use the same short path without colliding, and no plugin can ever shadow a
+built-in route.
+
+**Icons** are named: \`activity\`, \`alert\`, \`bar\`, \`bug\`, \`check\`, \`database\`,
+\`file\`, \`gauge\`, \`hash\`, \`layers\`, \`list\`, \`play\`, \`puzzle\`, \`refresh\`,
+\`search\`, \`settings\`, \`shield\`, \`sparkles\`, \`table\`, \`terminal\`, \`trash\`,
+\`wrench\`, \`zap\`. An unknown name falls back to a puzzle piece.
+`
+
+const HTTP_DOCS = `
+\`register_routes\` receives a FastAPI router already prefixed with
+\`/api/plugins/<slug>\`. This is where \`source\` and \`post\` URLs point.
+
+\`\`\`python
+def register_routes(router):
+    @router.get("/stats")
+    async def stats() -> dict:
+        return {"stats": [
+            {"label": "Checked", "value": 12, "hint": "this run", "tone": "good"},
+        ]}
+
+    @router.post("/clear")
+    async def clear() -> dict:
+        return {"message": "Cleared.", "refresh": True}
+\`\`\`
+
+The frontend refuses any block URL that does not begin with \`/api/plugins/\`,
+so a plugin cannot point the browser at an external host.
+
+> **Routes bind at server start, and reloading does not rebind them.** The
+> handlers you register close over the module object that existed at startup.
+> After a plugin reload, the *new* module handles \`grade\` and the other hooks
+> while your routes keep reading the *old* module's globals — so an endpoint
+> can serve stale state with no error to hint at it. Restart the server after
+> editing a plugin that defines \`register_routes\`.
