CCC DX/docs polish before rc1 (api.php, @internal, config/docs, small standards nits)
## Problem/Motivation
Follow-up from the beta4/1.0.x analysis triage:
#3586309+s
Combines remaining developer-experience and docs polish that does not need a
separate design track:
- analysis item #7 (`ai_context.api.php` + `@internal`)
- analysis item #9 (config/docs consistency)
- leftover analysis item #8 nits only (`strict_types`, Global scope
descriptions, subcontext toggle trait)
Related (do not duplicate here):
#3586271+s — larger consistency/DX cleanup (final classes, constructor
promotion, snake_case, etc.)
Already done / out of scope here:
- `hook_help()` (already present)
- full procedural → `#[Hook]` migration (defer to 1.1)
- accessibility tooltip work (#3586302)
## Proposed resolution
Target: **1.0.0-rc1** polish (can land earlier in beta4 if convenient).
### 1. API stubs and `@internal` alignment
- Add `ai_context.api.php` with documented alter-hook stubs currently only
described in `docs/developers/hooks.md`
(e.g. `hook_ai_context_scope_info_alter`, scope-values alter).
- Add `@internal` docblocks to classes/services declared internal in
`docs/developers/api-stability.md` (today mostly only
`AiContextItemViewBuilder` is tagged).
### 2. Config/docs consistency
- Add missing `content_moderation` config dependency on
`core.entity_view_display.ai_context_item.ai_context_item.default.yml`
(renders `content_moderation_control`; `full`/form displays already
declare the dependency).
- Document `ai_context.scheduler_defaults` in
`docs/developers/services.md`.
- Document entity-lifecycle hook implementations in
`docs/developers/hooks.md` where missing.
- Cross-link function-call plugins from `services.md` if still absent.
### 3. Small code-standards and DX nits
- Add `declare(strict_types=1);` to
`src/Plugin/diff/Field/DynamicEntityReferenceFieldBuilder.php`.
- Separate the Global scope's general plugin description from its
context-item form guidance:
- The plugin attribute and `getDescription()` should contain only the
general description shown on scope overview/settings pages.
- The Global context checkbox should retain its form-specific save/clear
warning and line break.
- Keep these as separate complete translatable strings because they serve
different UI contexts; do not mechanically compose or alter translated
text.
- Refactor `AiContextSubcontextToggleTrait` so it does not call
`\Drupal::config()` when the consuming service already has
`ConfigFactoryInterface`.
- Keep the content entity's non-DI config lookup explicit rather than using
the trait's service-oriented behavior.
- Normalize unit-test group metadata across supported Drupal versions:
retain `@group` annotations for PHPUnit 9 on Drupal 10 and add `#[Group]`
attributes for PHPUnit 10+ on Drupal 11.
No intentional selection, storage, matching, access, or public API behavior
changes are included. The only user-facing copy change is removing
context-item save guidance from scope overview/settings pages where no context
item is being saved.
Generalizing context-specific descriptions across all scope plugins through a
new plugin API method is a separate follow-up.
## Acceptance criteria
- `ai_context.api.php` exists and matches documented alter hooks.
- Stability-policy internal services/classes are `@internal`-tagged.
- Default view display config dependency and developer docs gaps above are
fixed.
- `declare(strict_types=1);` is added to the Diff field builder.
- Scope overview/settings pages describe what the Global scope does without
mentioning context-item save behavior.
- The Global context checkbox retains the save/clear warning and line break.
- The Global overview/settings and item-form descriptions remain separate,
complete translatable strings.
- Automated coverage verifies the Global context checkbox description and
the overview/settings description split.
- DI-capable `AiContextSubcontextToggleTrait` consumers use their injected
`ConfigFactoryInterface`; the content entity does not use the trait.
- `./lint.sh` / CI quality jobs pass.
- No broad hook-attribute migration is included.
- Unit tests use both `@group` and `#[Group]` so group filtering works on
Drupal 10 and Drupal 11.
## Out of scope
- Adding a generic `getItemFormDescription()` scope plugin API.
- Rewriting descriptions for all scope plugins.
- Full `#[Hook]` migration.
- Larger DX sweep already tracked in #3586271.
- Drop-D10 modernization (#10).
- Access/permission or accessibility work.
