Goal

Expose the capability-plugin registry in Settings so users and testers can see which optional features are installed, enabled, disabled, or unavailable.

Scope

Only optional capability plugins appear; always-present Core modules do not.
Row: name, short purpose, state (enabled/disabled/unavailable), implementation source (built-in/platform adapter/future external), dependencies, unavailable reason.
Enable/disable when runtime-safe; restart-required label when hot removal unsafe.
Link to module-specific settings.
Registry injected at composition root; no global singleton.
Feature absent/disabled handled at one Seam, no scattered view feature flags.
Real/in-memory fake/omitted adapter states use the same Interface for tests.

Initial candidates: Search, action commands, Spotlight, App Intents, voice, attachments, model controls, iCloud sync.

Acceptance

Settings gets Modules tab/page.
State matches runtime registry.
Disable/re-enable tests for hot-safe plugin; unavailable reason accessible; VoiceOver labels; no restart where not needed.
No Core module listed.

Related to #14 (performance regression harness); not a blocker.
Related to #22 (action mode for settings and commands); not a blocker.
Related to #9 (native motion); not a blocker.
