public interface Widget
Marker for a reusable widget primitive.

Each concrete type owns a public static final String CONTRACT_VERSION (starting at "1") and implements validate() as a fail-closed bean-level check. Serving-path call sites (for example a table emitter) must invoke validate() rather than treating it as documentation-only.

The REST serving path now enforces this independently of any one call site: every classpath that carries this module registers a ResponseProcessor (see WidgetsMixin.WidgetValidationProcessor) that calls validate() on any REST response content that is a Widget, fail-closed with a 500 on failure. That closes the gap for the two implementations that ride the wire as a JSON response body (ModalDef/FormDef) rather than being consumed by a server-side emitter that already validates on the way in; a non-REST producer (a direct Json.of(...) serialization, for example) is untouched by construction and still relies on an explicit validate() / checked() call.
