add extensions settings page and context panel widget#8540
Conversation
Replace the placeholder MCP Servers widget with a fully functional Extensions system. Users can view, search, add, edit, enable/disable, and delete extensions directly from Settings. The context panel shows active extensions. Backend uses config_key from YAML for reliable operations instead of re-deriving keys from display names.

Add inline search filtering, max-height with overflow scroll, and increased row spacing to the context panel extensions widget. Remove focus ring from the search input. Signed-off-by: morgmart <98432065+morgmart@users.noreply.github.com>
Address 11 edge cases from QA review: - Toast notifications on toggle/save/delete failures - Use config_key as React key to prevent wrong-item bugs - Disable Save button when required fields are empty - Prevent double-click duplicate submissions - Guard against missing description in search filters - Detect name collisions when adding extensions - Show "no results" message for empty search - Refresh widget on window focus after settings changes - Stable IDs for env var rows to prevent value scrambling - Handle SSE extensions gracefully in edit modal - Backend remove_extension returns error if key not found Signed-off-by: morgmart <98432065+morgmart@users.noreply.github.com>
Align nameToKey JS/Rust logic, extract shared getDisplayName helper, replace raw HTML elements with design system components, add ghost variant to Input, fix untranslated aria-label, and remove dead i18n key. Signed-off-by: morgmart <98432065+morgmart@users.noreply.github.com>

Always remove old entry by config_key on edit (not just rename) to prevent duplicates when config_key diverges from nameToKey(name). Make modal submit/delete async with try/finally to reset isSaving. Signed-off-by: morgmart <98432065+morgmart@users.noreply.github.com>

…ries Spread original extension fields when saving edits to preserve headers, env_keys, and other fields not exposed in the modal. Reverse save order to add-then-remove so a failed write never deletes the original config. Skip non-object YAML entries in list_extensions to prevent frontend crashes.

User Impact: Users can now view, search, add, edit, enable/disable, and delete MCP extensions directly from the Goose desktop app settings and see active extensions in the chat side panel.
Problem: The Tauri app had no way to manage extensions. Users had to manually edit
config.yamlto add, remove, or configure MCP extensions — a workflow that's error-prone and invisible to non-technical users.Solution: Built an end-to-end extensions management feature with a settings page for full CRUD operations and a lightweight chat widget showing active extensions. The backend reads/writes raw YAML mappings to preserve existing config structure, and the frontend uses
config_key(the actual YAML key) for all operations to avoid lossy name-to-key conversions.Note: Initial UI interface. May need logic redesign.
