[Codename-11]

What changed

• adds a screenshot-first, route-by-route audit of configuration ownership across Personal, Workspace, Instance Administration, and Mission Control as Operations
• introduces explicit scope labels and a Personal settings overview, and makes workspace settings name the active tenant
• moves instance authentication into the Instance Administration shell while preserving /settings/auth as a redirect
• makes workspace API access and developer clients canonical workspace routes
• makes dispatch fall-through settings editable and persists their effective workspace value
• improves settings navigation on mobile, current-page semantics, Activity preference keyboard behavior, and runtime card layout

Why

Configuration controls were split across shells with overlapping names and unclear ownership. Instance-wide authentication appeared under Account settings, workspace credentials appeared personal, Mission Control preferences read like another settings area, and dispatch defaults explained a value that could not be changed at the authoritative surface.

This change establishes four visible layers: Personal, named Workspace, Instance, and Mission Control as Operations. It preserves the existing Forge visual language and deep links while documenting the larger migration backlog.

Evidence

The audit inventory, walkthrough health report, screenshots index, target sitemap, role model, migration plan, and P0/P1/P2 backlog are in docs/audits/settings-information-architecture-2026-07-14/.

Stop Escape from collapsing Activity behind the dialog

When the Activity preferences dialog is open while the Activity shelf is expanded, pressing Escape runs this new handler but the same key event can still reach the existing shelf-level Escape hotkey in mission-control.tsx that collapses the panel to the pill. Since this handler only calls preventDefault() and the hotkey helper does not ignore handled events, keyboard users lose the Activity context instead of just closing the preferences dialog; stop the event from reaching the shelf hotkey or make that hotkey ignore already-handled events.
