refactor: flatten Cargo.toml features to simple app list

- Removed complex nested feature dependencies
- Each app now lists only its direct crate dependencies
- Apps can be tested independently without inter-dependencies
- Simplified structure: Core Infrastructure + Flat App List + Bundles
- Core: automation, drive, cache, directory (always needed)
- Apps: chat, mail, tasks, docs, etc. (independent)
- Bundles: minimal, lightweight, full (convenience)

This makes it easy to test each app individually and matches
the app launcher menu structure.

Verified: cargo check with chat+automation+drive+cache

# App Launcher Integration Guide
## Overview
The `apps-manifest.json` file provides a complete mapping between Cargo.toml features and user-friendly app descriptions for the botui app launcher.
## File Location
```
botserver/apps-manifest.json
```
## Structure
### Categories
Apps are organized into 8 categories:
1. **Communication** (💬) - Chat, Mail, Meet, WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.
2. **Productivity** (⚡) - Tasks, Calendar, Project, Goals, Workspaces, etc.
3. **Documents** (📄) - Drive, Docs, Sheet, Slides, Paper
4. **Media** (🎬) - Video, Player, Canvas
5. **Learning** (📚) - Learn, Research, Sources
6. **Analytics** (📈) - Analytics, Dashboards, Monitoring
7. **Development** (⚙️) - Automation, Designer, Editor
8. **Administration** (🔐) - Attendant, Security, Settings, Directory
9. **Core** (🏗️) - Cache, LLM, Vector DB
### App Schema
Each app includes:
```json
{
"id": "tasks",
"name": "Tasks",
"description": "Task management with scheduling",
"feature": "tasks",
"icon": "✅",
"enabled_by_default": true,
"dependencies": ["automation", "drive", "monitoring"]
}
```
### Bundles
Pre-configured feature sets:
- **minimal** - Essential infrastructure (chat, automation, drive, cache)
- **lightweight** - Basic productivity (chat, drive, tasks, people)
- **full** - Complete feature set
- **communications** - All communication apps
- **productivity** - Productivity suite
- **documents** - Document suite
## Integration with botui
### Reading the Manifest
```javascript
// In botui/ui/suite/js/app-launcher.js
fetch('/api/apps/manifest')
.then(res => res.json())
.then(manifest => {
renderAppLauncher(manifest);
});
```
### Rendering Apps
```javascript
function renderAppLauncher(manifest) {
const categories = manifest.categories;
for (const [categoryId, category] of Object.entries(categories)) {
const categoryEl = createCategory(category);
category.apps.forEach(app => {
const appCard = createAppCard(app);
categoryEl.appendChild(appCard);
});
}
}
```
### App Card Template
```html
<div class="app-card" data-feature="${app.feature}">
<div class="app-icon">${app.icon}</div>
<div class="app-name">${app.name}</div>
<div class="app-description">${app.description}</div>
<div class="app-toggle">
<input type="checkbox"
${app.enabled_by_default ? 'checked' : ''}
${app.core_dependency ? 'disabled' : ''}>
</div>
${app.dependencies.length > 0 ?
`<div class="app-deps">Requires: ${app.dependencies.join(', ')}</div>`
: ''}
</div>
```
## Backend API Endpoint
Add to `botserver/src/main.rs`:
```rust
async fn get_apps_manifest() -> Json<serde_json::Value> {
let manifest = include_str!("../apps-manifest.json");
let value: serde_json::Value = serde_json::from_str(manifest)
.expect("Invalid apps-manifest.json");
Json(value)
}
// In router configuration:
api_router = api_router.route("/api/apps/manifest", get(get_apps_manifest));
```
## Compilation Testing
Use the `test_apps.sh` script to verify all apps compile:
```bash
cd /home/rodriguez/src/gb
./test_apps.sh
```
This will:
1. Test each app feature individually
2. Report which apps pass/fail compilation
3. Provide a summary of results
## Core Dependencies
These apps cannot be disabled (marked with `core_dependency: true`):
- **automation** - Required for .gbot script execution
- **drive** - S3 storage used throughout
- **cache** - Redis integrated into sessions
## Feature Bundling
When a user enables an app, all its dependencies are automatically enabled:
- Enable `tasks` → Automatically enables `automation`, `drive`, `monitoring`
- Enable `mail` → Automatically enables `mail_core`, `drive`
- Enable `research` → Automatically enables `llm`, `vectordb`
## Syncing with Cargo.toml
When adding new features to `Cargo.toml`:
1. Add the feature definition in `Cargo.toml`
2. Add the app entry in `apps-manifest.json`
3. Update the app launcher UI in botui
4. Run `./test_apps.sh` to verify compilation
5. Commit both files together
## Example: Adding a New App
### 1. In Cargo.toml
```toml
[features]
myapp = ["dep:myapp-crate", "drive"]
```
### 2. In apps-manifest.json
```json
{
"id": "myapp",
"name": "My App",
"description": "My awesome app",
"feature": "myapp",
"icon": "🚀",
"enabled_by_default": false,
"dependencies": ["drive"]
}
```
### 3. Test
```bash
cargo check -p botserver --no-default-features --features myapp
```
## Notes
- Icons use emoji for cross-platform compatibility
- Dependencies are automatically resolved by Cargo
- Core dependencies are shown but cannot be toggled off
- The manifest version matches botserver version
