+Immersive Reading discovers server-side packages through the
+`deeptutor.reading_extensions` Python entry-point group. DeepTutor ships the
+selection-required `translation` extension in this group; when no extension is
+installed, the Reader does not render an extension toolbar.
 
 An entry point resolves to an object or class with a validated `manifest` and a
 `run_action(action, context)` method. The current protocol version is `1`.
