Plugins installed from Settings → Built-in Plugins registered the
manifest directory as the plugin path, but since FN-4128 the loader
requires a loadable entry FILE (Node ESM cannot import directories),
so enabling failed with "Plugin entry must be a file, got directory".
Only the CLI startup path had been migrated to entry-file resolution,
which is why CLI-auto-installed plugins worked and Settings installs
never did.
- Add resolvePluginEntryPath (bundled.js → dist/index.js →
src/index.ts) to @fusion/core; the CLI keeps its local copy (its
test fs mocks don't reach externalized core) with sync comments
both ways.
- Register the resolved entry file in both dashboard install routes;
400 with a clear message when a package has no loadable entry.
- Heal legacy directory-path registrations on enable, mirroring the
CLI's startup heal, so existing broken rows recover from the UI
without a restart.
- Route tests: assert installs register entry files, cover the
enable-route heal, and update existing install tests to the
entry-file contract.
