#3974 Manual: the supported extension dependency categories, the canonical form and the lock rule, rewritten once against the final design

Opened by skunk-ape · 10/26/2026

Repo: swamp-club. Step 3 of the extension dependency-forms design. Depends on #3971. Design: the extension dependency-forms Doc, https://claude.ai/artifact/WpRbpqb5djPgDXzydFSohs (decided 2026-10-26).

Problem

The manual describes dependency handling piece by piece, and the #3725 pages already lag #3793 (they describe a single installed version). There's no published list of which dependency forms are supported.

Proposal

  • Publish the Doc's 3.3 table as the supported dependency categories: the compatibility promise authors can plan against, including when swamp moves off Deno.
  • Document the canonical shipped form, the unaudited categories with their score cost and how to earn the point back, and the lock rule ("pin exact versions or commit a lock; a lock also fixes transitive versions").
  • Rewrite the #3725 manual pages once against the final design, including #3793's per-copy audit. Fold in what is left of #3631.

Acceptance

  • Every statement matches main after #3971. The manual's own checks and build pass.
  • No UAT: manual pages only.
