• Publisher/subscriber pattern for plugins

• Auto-fallback if primary backend unavailable
• Screen capture (full or region)
• Returns structured results with bounding boxes
• quick_ocr() convenience function

PluginAPI Integration:

• api.ocr_capture(region) - All plugins can use OCR
• api.read_log(lines, filter) - All plugins can read log
• Services auto-initialized on app startup
• Registered with PluginAPI for universal access
