## Extension Composability
Extensions compose with each other through three mechanisms: manifest-declared
**slots** (UI injection points), **contributions** (UI components injected into
those slots), and cross-package **function calls** via `lib.require()`.
### Slots — Host Surfaces Declare Injection Points
A surface declares named slots in its manifest where other extensions can
inject UI components:
```json
{
"id": "notes",
"type": "surface",
"slots": {
"toolbar-actions": {
"description": "Toolbar action buttons",
"context": {
"noteId": "string",
"getContent": "function — returns note body",
"setContent": "function — replaces note body"
}
}
}
}
```
The surface renders slot contents using the SDK helper:
```javascript
html`<div class="toolbar">
${sw.slots.renderAll('notes:toolbar-actions', {
noteId: note.id,
getContent: () => editor.getValue(),
setContent: (text) => editor.setValue(text),
})}
</div>`
```
### Contributions — Extensions Inject UI
An extension declares which slots it contributes to:
```json
{
"id": "note-dictate",
"type": "extension",
"contributes": {
"notes:toolbar-actions": {
"label": "Dictate",
"icon": "🎤",
"description": "Voice-to-text dictation"
}
}
}
```
In its JavaScript, it registers the component:
```javascript
sw.slots.register('notes:toolbar-actions', {
id: 'note-dictate',
priority: 200,
component: ({ noteId, setContent, getContent }) => {
// ... component implementation
return html`<button class="sw-btn sw-btn--ghost">🎤</button>`;
}
});
```
Contributions are soft-coupled — install order doesn't matter. The admin
can view all slots and contributors at **Admin > Packages** or via
`GET /api/v1/admin/slots`.
### Cross-Package Function Calls
Any package that declares `exports` in its manifest can be called by other
packages via `lib.require()`. The caller declares the dependency:
```json
{
"id": "note-ai",
"depends": ["llm-bridge"],
"permissions": ["api.http"]
}
```
In Starlark:
```python
llm = lib.require("llm-bridge")
result = llm.complete([{"role": "user", "content": prompt}])
```
The called function runs with the *target* package's permissions, not the
caller's. This is the same security model as library packages.
### Slot Naming Convention
Slot names follow `{host-package-id}:{slot-name}`. The colon separates the
namespace from the slot. Standard slots for first-party packages:
| Slot | Host | Use Case |
|------|------|----------|
| `notes:toolbar-actions` | notes | Dictation, AI tools, formatting |
| `notes:note-footer` | notes | Related items, AI summary |
| `chat:composer-tools` | chat | Image gen, file attach |
| `chat:message-actions` | chat | Reactions, translate, bookmark |
| `chat:image-actions` | chat | Regen, edit, upscale |
