feat: add live client OS detection and compatibility warnings - #20
The plugin page now tells a visitor whether an extension supports their machine before they try to install it. This matters most for tools like saturn-patcher, which ships Windows and Linux builds only and has no macOS or Linux arm64 binary.
What the visitor sees
The pill sits directly above the action buttons, so it is read before the install attempt rather than after a failed one.
Compatible — green border, subtle green glow:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ✅ Compatible with your system (Windows) │ emerald-500/40 border
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ emerald-500/10 fill
Incompatible — amber warning, plus a deliberate opt-in download:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ⚠️ Not compatible with your current OS (macOS) │ amber-500/40 border
│ Only available on: Windows, Linux │ amber-500/10 fill
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Downloading anyway? Download anyway for another PC.
The download buttons are not disabled — a visitor can still fetch a build for another machine. The incompatible state just makes that choice explicit instead of accidental.
One pure implementation (src/lib/detectOS.ts) runs in both places, so the server and the browser can never disagree about what a User-Agent means.
Why there is also a client-side check
The server renders the pill from the request User-Agent, so it is correct on first paint. The browser then re-runs the same check and corrects it. The reason is iPadOS: since 13, an iPad reports a desktop Safari Macintosh User-Agent, and the only client-side tell is navigator.maxTouchPoints. A server-rendered pill would call an iPad "macOS" and, for a Windows/Linux-only plugin, miss the incompatibility entirely.
Zero layout shift
The server renders the pill in its final state, so the first paint is already correct. The client only ever toggles hidden on nodes that are always in the DOM — it never inserts or removes a node — so a correction cannot change the element's height. An unreadable User-Agent, or a plugin with no platform data, renders nothing rather than guessing.

Verification
Real browser, post-JS DOM — driven through headless Chromium with --user-agent per OS, asserting the final rendered state (not the pre-JS HTML):

Tests — 83/83 pass (12 new for detection, 4 for the client wiring, including the iPadOS maxTouchPoints correction).
Build — npm run build clean. tsc reports only the pre-existing astro.config.mjs vite-plugin duplicate error.
Tailwind v4 — confirmed hidden, shrink-0, and the emerald/amber border/fill/text utilities are all emitted into the built CSS, so nothing depends on classes that JIT dropped.
One bug found while testing
Icon.astro only destructures name / class / strokeWidth, so the data-compat-icon attribute I first put on <Icon> was silently dropped and the client could not toggle the icons. Fixed by wrapping each icon in a <span> that carries the hook. Caught by diffing the post-JS DOM against the pre-JS HTML rather than trusting the server render alone.
This PR was created by an AI agent (OpenHands) on behalf of the user.

New Features
Plugin pages now show whether a plugin is compatible with your operating system and list supported platforms when it isn’t.
When compatibility can’t be determined, the status panel is hidden. Downloads remain available, with a separate download-anyway option for incompatible platforms.
The plugin page now tells the visitor whether an extension supports their
machine before they try to install it, which matters for tools like
saturn-patcher that ship Windows and Linux builds only.
- src/lib/detectOS.ts: pure detection and compatibility logic (Windows, macOS,
Linux, Android, plus iOS and Unknown). Runs on the server and in the browser
so the two can never disagree.
- src/lib/compat-client.ts: browser entry that re-checks against
navigator.userAgent and corrects the pill.
- src/pages/plugin/[id].astro: renders the pill above the action buttons and
adds a "Download anyway for another PC" link when the OS is unsupported.
- src/components/Icon.astro: adds check-circle and alert-triangle.
The server renders the pill from the request User-Agent, so it is correct on
first paint and cannot shift layout. The client only ever toggles `hidden` on
nodes that are always in the DOM, so a correction cannot shift layout either.
It exists for iPadOS, which reports a Macintosh User-Agent but is really iOS —
maxTouchPoints is the only tell and the server cannot see it.
An unreadable User-Agent, or a plugin with no platform data, renders nothing
rather than guessing. Tests cover both layers, including the iPadOS correction.

The plugin page now displays compatibility information based on the detected operating system and supported platforms. Browser-side initialization recalculates the state using browser details and updates the panel.

Summary
Operating-system and platform detection src/lib/detectOS.ts, tests/detectOS.test.ts
Adds operating-system detection, platform compatibility calculation, and supported-platform labels. Tests cover user-agent classifications and compatibility outcomes.
The browser client recalculates compatibility and updates panel styling, text, and visibility. Tests cover compatible, incompatible, and unknown states.
