os — an OS-style desktop shell for togo apps

Turns a togo app's web frontend into a macOS-style desktop environment: a login/lock screen, a wallpapered desktop with draggable icons, a dock, draggable / resizable / snappable windows, a Launchpad app directory, Spotlight search, a notification center, and a Settings app with live theming. Any togo plugin can register itself as a launchable OS app (icon, color, category, window spec).

The shell is fully responsive — on phones windows go full-screen and the UI drills in iOS-style.

Register an app

Each OS-app plugin calls os.RegisterApp from its init(), alongside its normal provider registration:

func init() {
	os.RegisterApp(os.AppMeta{
		Slug:     "notes",
		Name:     "Notes",
		Icon:     "sticky-note",           // lucide icon (kebab-case)
		Color:    "#f59e0b",
		Category: "productivity",
		Window:   os.WindowSpec{Width: 720, Height: 520, Resizable: true},
	})
}

Scaffold a full app bundle (UI + backend + MCP + Claude agent + this metadata) with togo make:os-app <name>, or start a whole project on the desktop shell with togo new <app> --frontend os.

REST API

Desktop preferences are stored through the settings plugin (scope os:desktop, key = user id); enabled state is joined from plugin-host when present. The plugin registers at PriorityLate+15 and reads the current user generically, so it works with any auth driver.
