Add Pluggable architecture in ai workspace UI

[Induwara04]

This pull request introduces a new, flexible extension system for the AI Workspace portal, centered around the concepts of "slots" and a "host port." It allows host-injected features (like sidebar items and routes) to be registered and rendered in a decoupled way, making it easier to add, override, or reuse features across different host apps. The changes include new primitives for slot-based extension points, a portable host port interface, and refactoring of sidebar and route rendering to use these mechanisms.

The most important changes are:

Extension System & Slot Infrastructure:

• Introduced a generic slot-based extension system in slots/index.tsx, allowing features to be registered to named extension points (slots) and providing utilities like SlotEntriesProvider, useSlotEntries, and useSlot. Also added support for suppressible (hideable) regions.
• Refactored extensions.tsx to define the AIWorkspaceExtension type as a slot entry with a render(port) function (instead of a static React element), and switched extension context management to use the new slot infrastructure.

Host Port Abstraction:

• Added hostPort.tsx, defining the AIWorkspaceHostPort type (org/project handles, navigation, notifications) and a context/provider for passing this port to extensions, ensuring extensions are decoupled from the portal's internal hooks.
• Updated appShellMain.tsx to build the port value from live hooks and provide it via PortProvider, so all extensions receive the correct host context. [1] [2] [3]

Sidebar and Routing Refactor:

• Changed sidebar rendering in AppSidebar.tsx to use the slot-based extension system (useSlot for AI_WORKSPACE_SIDEBAR_SLOT) instead of the old context. [1] [2]
• Updated route rendering in App.tsx to filter and render only sidebar slot extensions, and to call their render(port) function via a new ExtensionRoute component.

Cloud Extension Injection Seam:

• Added cloud/index.ts as an injection seam for cloud-only extensions, always exporting a valid array, and updated main.tsx to dynamically import and pass these extensions to the app. [1] [2]

Exports and API Surface:

• Updated index.ts to export the new slot and host port types, making them available to downstream consumers.

These changes collectively make the portal more modular and extensible, enabling easier integration of new features and customization by downstream builds.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

AI Workspace now uses shared slot primitives for extensions, loads cloud extensions asynchronously, provides host capabilities through AIWorkspaceHostPort, and renders sidebar-slot extensions through port-aware callbacks.

Changes

AI Workspace extension integration

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Shared slot and hideable-region primitives portals/ai-workspace/src/slots/index.tsx	Adds typed slot entries, slot providers, ordered slot lookup, hidden-region providers, and Hideable.
Extension contract and cloud loading portals/ai-workspace/src/extensions.tsx, portals/ai-workspace/src/cloud/index.ts, portals/ai-workspace/src/main.tsx	Changes extensions to slot entries with port-aware render callbacks. Adds the cloud extension seam and asynchronous loading with an empty-list fallback.
Host capability port wiring portals/ai-workspace/src/hostPort.tsx, portals/ai-workspace/src/pages/appShell/appShellMain.tsx, portals/ai-workspace/src/index.ts	Defines and exports the host-port contract. Provides organization, project, navigation, and notification capabilities to routed content.
Slot-based extension rendering portals/ai-workspace/src/App.tsx, portals/ai-workspace/src/pages/appShell/AppSidebar.tsx	Reads sidebar extensions from the shared slot and renders them through ExtensionRoute with the live host port.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 935f6

The new extension system is not fully available to downstream integrations because its slot APIs are missing from the public entry point. This can block consumers from registering or rendering extensions, so the PR should wait for the exports to be added or for the risk to be explicitly accepted.
