feat(daemon, web): enhance plugin sharing workflows and UI components

- Updated the plugin sharing prompts to utilize local daemon endpoints for publishing to GitHub and contributing to Open Design, streamlining the user experience.
- Refactored the `PluginsView` and `PluginShareMenu` components to support new sharing functionalities, including confirmation modals and improved link handling.
- Enhanced the CSS styles for the plugin share confirmation modal and related UI elements for better visual consistency.
- Added tests to verify the functionality of the new sharing workflows and ensure proper integration within the existing plugin management system.

This update significantly improves the plugin sharing experience, making it easier for users to publish and contribute their plugins effectively.

+# Community Live Ops Artifact
+
+Use this plugin when the user asks for a live artifact that summarizes changing operational data.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Identify the source system or choose a mock source when no connector is available.
+2. Define the artifact schema: KPIs, freshness, feed items, and owner actions.
+3. Create a self-contained HTML artifact that renders a useful seeded state.
+4. Include stale and refresh affordances in the UI copy.
+5. Return `index.html` and note which connector can be wired later.
+
+## Quality Checks
+
+- The artifact still works with seeded mock data.
+- Freshness and source status are visible.
+- The user can tell what action to take next.
+- The layout remains useful when values change.

+
+# Community Ops Dashboard
+
+Use this plugin when the user wants a realistic product, operations, or customer-success dashboard prototype.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Identify the operator role, the key decisions they need to make, and the time window.
+2. Build a single-file HTML artifact with a persistent navigation rail, KPI row, primary chart area, and action table.
+3. Use real-looking labels and numbers instead of placeholders.
+4. Check that the layout works at laptop width and that tables remain readable.
+5. Return `index.html` as the primary artifact.
+
+## Quality Checks
+
+- The dashboard is useful for scanning and repeated work.
+- The main action table has status, owner, priority, and next step columns.
+- Text stays inside compact controls and cards.
+- No external network assets are required.

+# Seed Brief
+
+Use this as a fallback shape when the user gives a terse prompt.
+
+- Audience: product or operations team.
+- Primary job: identify what needs attention now.
+- Core sections: metric strip, trend panel, prioritized queue, detail inspector, action footer.
+- States: empty data, loading, selected item, blocked item.
+- Tone: work-focused, dense, calm, clear.

+
+# Community Pitch Slides
+
+Use this plugin when the user needs a seed or Series A pitch deck in HTML.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Ask only for missing company name, product promise, traction, and ask if they are absent.
+2. Create 8 to 10 slides covering problem, insight, product, market, traction, model, team, and ask.
+3. Keep every slide visually distinct but governed by one typography and color system.
+4. Include speaker-friendly headlines, not paragraph-heavy pages.
+5. Return `index.html` as the primary artifact.
+
+## Quality Checks
+
+- The deck can be read quickly in presentation mode.
+- Numbers are formatted consistently and have labels.
+- The ask slide names use of funds.
+- Print/export styling does not hide slide content.
