Mirror v4: a horizontal rule now sits between the header line (system/uptime)
and the top row, in addition to the existing top↔body rule. Both use the ─
box-drawing glyph by default (v4 paints curses.ACS_HLINE). The [outputs]
separator config key (default True) governs both; when False the rule rows
are left blank rather than collapsed, preserving the vertical rhythm.
Plan covers 6 tasks: adapter, mount in webserver_v5 (gated by
[outputs] enable_mcp), CLI overlay propagation, explicit gap docs
(history + missing plugins), conf + architecture doc, final sweep.
Scope contract: do NOT rewrite GlancesMcpServer. Introduce a thin
McpStatsAdapter / McpPluginView in glances/outputs/mcp_adapter_v5.py
that exposes the v4-style stats interface (getPluginsList,
get_plugin(name), get_raw, get_limits, ...) over StatsStoreV5 +
plugin registry + GlancesAlerts.
Surfaces v5 gaps explicitly:
- no history → adapter returns {} + WARN log (1× per plugin);
- processlist/fs/diskio/memswap not in v5 → get_plugin returns None,
MCP raises the canonical "Plugin not found" ValueError;
- auth+SSE: middleware must not buffer; verify or port v4
GlancesMcpAuthMiddleware pattern.
Decision logged: alert schema = v5-native (option a, no v4 translation).
- ``run-v5``: TUI mode (the new default — help string updated to
reflect it no longer binds a socket).
- ``run-v5-debug``: TUI mode + ``-d``.
- ``run-v5-server`` (new): REST API mode (``-s``), headless.
- ``run-v5-server-debug`` (new): REST mode + ``-d``.
- ``run-v5-mcp`` (new): REST + ``--enable-mcp``. The flag is accepted +
validated today but the MCP mount is not yet wired into v5 — see the
plan footer (Task 2 dropped, deferred to a dedicated G3-MCP plan).
Also updates the plan file: marks Task 2 (MCP gate) as DROPPED with a
rationale section explaining that MCP is not yet wired into v5
``webserver_v5``, so there is nothing to gate. The CLI flag + validation
shipped in Task 1 are kept; the actual mount + gate will land in
G3-MCP.
One commit per plugin, each replicating its v4 msg_curse layout. Each
task starts by reading the v4 source + catalogue (project memory rule
`feedback-tui-v5-must-mirror-v4`).
