API Reference

This page summarizes the public runtime surface. It is not a replacement for source-level API documentation, but it is the fastest way to find the right type.

Core Runtime

Type	Purpose
ForsettiRuntime	Top-level runtime facade for boot, shutdown, routing, event bus, UI surface manager, and module manager access.
ModuleManager	Discovers, activates, deactivates, restores, persists, and selects modules.
ManifestLoader	Loads and validates bundled manifest JSON files.
CompatibilityChecker	Produces compatibility reports from manifest, platform, version, and capability policy.
ModuleRegistry	Registers entryPoint factories and creates module instances.
UISurfaceManager	Publishes merged toolbar items, view injections, overlay schema, and theme mask state.

Module Contracts

Type	Purpose
ForsettiModule	Base lifecycle protocol for all modules.
ForsettiUIModule	UI module protocol with uiContributions.
ForsettiAppModule	Specialized UI module for complete single-app modules.
ModuleDescriptor	Runtime identity snapshot for a module.
ModuleManifest	JSON-backed activation contract.
ModuleType	service, ui, or app.

Policy and Entitlements

Type	Purpose
CapabilityPolicy	Evaluates requested capabilities.
AllowAllCapabilityPolicy	Allows capabilities except runtime-reserved denials.
FixedCapabilityPolicy	Allows only configured capabilities.
ForsettiEntitlementProvider	Asynchronous unlock, refresh, restore, and change-stream contract.
AllowAllEntitlementProvider	Unlocks all modules.
StaticEntitlementProvider	Unlocks configured module or product IDs.
StoreKit2EntitlementProvider	StoreKit-backed entitlement provider where StoreKit is available.

UI Contribution Types

Type	Purpose
UIContributions	Container for theme mask, toolbar items, view injections, and overlay schema.
ToolbarItemDescriptor	Toolbar item title/icon/action.
ToolbarAction	Navigate, open overlay, or publish event.
ViewInjectionDescriptor	Slot, view ID, and priority for injected UI.
OverlaySchema	Pointer and route collection.
NavigationPointer	Named pointer to a base destination.
OverlayRoute	Route path and destination.
OverlayDestination	Base destination or module overlay destination.

Services, Events, and Diagnostics

Type	Purpose
ForsettiContext	Module access point for services, events, logging, and routing.
ForsettiServiceProviding	Service resolver protocol.
ForsettiServiceContainer	Type-keyed service registry.
ForsettiEventBus	Publish/subscribe event contract.
InMemoryEventBus	In-memory event implementation.
ForsettiEvent	Event type, payload, source module ID, and timestamp.
SubscriptionToken	Event subscription cancellation token.
ForsettiLogger	Logging abstraction.
ConsoleForsettiLogger	Debug console logger.
ModuleCommunicationGuard	Policy gate for module-to-module messaging.

Host Template Types

Type	Purpose
ForsettiHostController	Observable controller for boot, module lists, activation, selection, purchase restore, toolbar actions, and errors.
ForsettiHostRootView	Reusable SwiftUI host shell.
ForsettiHostTemplateBootstrap	Factory helpers for host controller/runtime wiring.
ForsettiHostOverlayRouter	Overlay route and pointer resolver for host template surfaces.
ForsettiViewInjectionRegistry	Maps viewID strings to SwiftUI AnyView builders.
