About the plugin that serves it
Section titled “About the plugin that serves it”The charly box … AUTHORING verb handlers — a COMMAND-class charly plugin
(github.com/opencharly/sdk), NESTED under the core box command group (P14b).
charly box set/add-candy/rm-candy/write/cat mutate a project’s charly.yml directly via
sdk/kit (kit.SetByDotPath / kit.MappingChild / kit.SaveYAMLNodeFile — the comment-preserving
yaml.Node utilities) + the project-rooted file escape hatch (resolveProjectFile
path-traversal guard), with ZERO core reentry. charly box fetch/refresh pre-prime /
force-re-clone the remote-repo cache by re-running the hidden core __box-fetch /
__box-refresh reentry over the generic HostBuild(“cli”) reverse channel (the same seam
candy/plugin-box’s pkg verb uses for __box-pkg) — the repo resolver is host-coupled
(CHARLY_REPO_OVERRIDE + the refs-backend dispatch + the command:migrate auto-migration).
COMPILED-IN, it dispatches IN-PROC via Invoke(OpRun) (kong-parse each verb’s grammar), so
the handlers own charly’s real stdio. Placement-invisible (F8): the SAME provider compiles
into charly or serves out-of-process.
Run charly add-candy --help for the live flag grammar.
