feat(extensions): expose Superset categorical color schemes to extensions#39226
Conversation
…ions Add a `colors` module to superset-core that lets extensions read Superset's registered categorical color palettes without taking a direct dependency on @superset-ui/core. Pattern: ExtensionsStartup injects the live CategoricalSchemeRegistry singleton into superset-core at startup via `registerCategoricalSchemeRegistry()`. Extensions then call `colors.getCategoricalSchemeNames()` / `colors.getSchemeColors(name)` through the federated `@apache-superset/core` module — the same singleton, so palettes registered by the host are visible. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Note: This PR is intended to merge after #39171 (Tier 1+2 storage) lands, since both touch
ExtensionsStartup.tsxandsuperset-core/src/index.ts.Before/After
Before: Extensions had no way to access Superset's color palettes; the notebook extension used a hardcoded 8-color AntD palette for Mermaid diagrams.
After: Extensions can enumerate and read any registered Superset categorical color scheme. The Notebook extension shows a palette selector in the Mermaid cell header.
