Qt-removal R7.5a: 4 bundled mechanical parity fixes#147
Merged
Conversation
Wires 2 node kinds that existed with zero creation path (Conversation Node, HTML Renderer) into execute_plugin, adds New Chat and Focus on Selection to the command palette, makes Chat/Code node Export real (frontend-only download), and corrects the Help panel's false claim that smart guides/orthogonal routing/faded connections are available today.

Summary
execute_plugin— both node kinds have existed since R3.17/R3.25 with zero UI-reachable creation path; reuses the already-shippedadd_conversation_node/add_html_nodecanvas methods with the same branch-point-child pattern as the other 6 real node-creation plugins.newChat's backend intent already existed,fitView/selection reads are already used elsewhere).downloadTextFilehelper, matchingImageNodeView's existing Export pattern. Code node guesses a file extension from its language field, falling back to.txt.This is R7.5a of the Qt-removal plan's R7.5 phase (closing confirmed parity gaps ahead of the Qt cutover) — the smallest, most mechanical bundle of the 7 scoped sub-increments, chosen first since it reuses 100% existing, already-tested backend primitives.
Test plan
backend/tests/test_plugins.py: new tests for bothexecute_pluginbranches (no-parent, unknown-parent, real-creation), a monkeypatch-based test proving the generic fallback notice still works for a future unhandled plugin name, and an explicit check that every_PLUGINSentry now has a real branchcommands.test.ts,ChatNodeView.test.tsx,CodeNodeView.test.tsx: new tests for the 2 commands and both Export actionscreate_app()instance over the real WS protocol (isolated scratch settings/chat-db files; real~/.graphlink/session.datSHA-256 confirmed unchanged before/after)
