Every AI surface reads its capability from the ai block on
/api/auth/me, but setting up or removing a provider, signing in to or out
of Codex, saving the fallback chain, the central-Codex opt-in, the
local-OCR switch, a minted consent receipt, the admin's server key and
central Codex, and a guardian's save inside a managed record evicted only
their own reads. The surfaces stayed on the old answer until a reload.
All of these writes, and the ones that already refreshed the payload
(consent, modules, Hide Coach, the operator's switches), now evict one
bundle, aiInputDependentKeys. A structural test holds every client write
to those endpoints to it.
The operator switches become master, Coach, Daily Briefing, Status
notes and Reading documents. Correlations goes: it gated statistics,
not anything a model writes. Reading documents covers the document
vault, lab scans and medication extraction.
The Coach module's operator availability now follows the Coach
switch, so there is one place to turn the Coach off server-wide. The
migration folds a stored Coach availability of false into the switch,
and gives everyone who hid the Coach the AI analysis opt-out, since
hiding the Coach no longer stops nightly briefing and status notes.
A switch read that fails now fails closed. The insights module is
described as AI analysis in every locale, and the switch guard now
keeps both retired switches out and freezes the callers of the old
operator-only gate.
Measured before the sweep: 317 description and hint strings under the
`settings` and `admin` namespaces, median 83 characters, 113 of them two
sentences or more. The rule the design standards now carry is one sentence,
guideline 120 characters, and this is the sweep that makes it true.
Almost nothing was retranslated. A second sentence is already written in
every language — it is just in the wrong slot. `scripts/split-description.mjs`
cuts a description at its first sentence boundary in all six bundles at once
and either drops the tail or files it under its own key; the twenty-one keys
that moved now render in the card body as foreground `text-sm`, which is
where multi-sentence prose belongs and where a reader can actually read it
(the slot is muted `text-xs`). Eight tails were dropped outright, because
"Off by default" under a switch, "Topics and frequency are adjustable" above
the topic switches, and "Only admins can create invitations" on an
admin-gated route are not information.
Twenty-eight keys are gone: the privacy page's intro, which was a table of
contents for the four cards under it; two About descriptions that listed
verbatim the labels and the buttons beneath them; a card description that
repeated its own title; the API-token sentence that said what the paragraph
below it said with the actual instruction; and the eight integration
secondary sentences. Six descriptions were rewritten shorter in all six
languages where trimming was honest rather than lossy.
On the strings that changed: 4391 characters of English down to 2290, and 32
multi-sentence descriptions down to zero.
The rule is now a gate. `card-description-length.test.ts` reads the keys that
actually reach a card header's description slot — statically, from the JSX —
and checks them in EN and DE, because a rule that only holds in English
produces a slot that wraps to two lines in half the locales. Its exception
list is empty and carries a reason requirement plus a test that removes a
stale entry. Verified by putting a second sentence back: it fails.
The two consoles used the same primitives and still read as two systems,
because everything without a primitive had drifted: the header-to-body
step existed in three competing techniques at once (`mt-4` on the first
body child, `space-y-4` on the card, `mb-4` on the header), the body
started either at the card edge or 28 px in, and both shells hand-rolled
the page title instead of calling `PageHeader`.
Move the decisions into the primitives so a call site cannot re-open them:
- `SettingsCard` is gap-based like `Card` (`flex flex-col gap-4`). The
header-to-body step is the container's, not a margin somebody remembers.
A dense card still overrides the gap on the card itself.
- The body starts at the card edge. `pl-7` is gone — off the spacing scale,
and it mis-aligned action rows against their own forms wherever two
neighbouring cards disagreed about it.
- The card header's description slot loses its `space-y-1`. That was the
licence call sites used to stack explainer paragraphs into a muted
`text-xs` slot; the slot holds one sentence.
- New `SettingsCardActions`: one action row, trailing edge, last thing in
the card. `align="start"` spells the one exception, a card whose only
actions are links out.
- New `StatTile` replaces four hand-rolled label/value boxes in Admin.
- `SectionHeading` moves from `insights/` to `ui/`. It is the heading above
a group of cards, which is what Settings needs; Settings had been using a
card header with no card, which reads as a card that failed to paint.
Both shells now render their heading through `PageHeader`, which gained
`headingAs="div"` for the second copy each shell paints (mobile above the
nav strip, desktop inside the grid) so only one is a real `<h1>`. The
page explainer is muted everywhere: the primitive said foreground, the
standards and every hand-rolled copy said muted, so pages disagreed with
each other. Medications, Vorsorge, the labs / custom-metric / illness
detail pages and the clinician view drop their hand-rolled title blocks
too, including the mid-word truncation on the medications subtitle.
Tests pin the parts that can be checked exactly: the card's gap, the
description slot's missing rhythm, the action row's two alignments, the
`<h1>`-free shells, and a sweep asserting `pl-7` stays gone.
The admin tree hand-rolled its card surfaces and stepped padding at sm:
instead of md:, so it read denser than every other route on a tablet.
Move the sections onto SettingsCard/SettingsCardHeader and the mini-rows
onto ListRow; no behaviour, data, or copy changes.
The inbound-documents surface is withdrawn from this release and returns
later with more depth. Park its module key (`inboundDocuments`) in a new
`CODE_DISABLED_MODULE_KEYS` list so it is hard-off for every account ahead
of both the operator-availability and the per-user opt-in layer.
The gate short-circuits a code-disabled key to disabled, so the resolved
module map reports it off everywhere: the nav entry stays born-gated and
hidden, the `/documents` page redirects, and every `/api/documents/inbound/*`
route returns the 403 module-disabled envelope. The Modules hub and the
operator-availability panel drop the row, and the per-user PATCH surface
refuses to write the key (a clean 422 instead of an inert preference).
The whole implementation stays intact — routes, the inbound-documents view,
the registry entry with its opt-in marker, the validation schemas, and the
migration are all preserved. Re-enabling the module is a one-line removal
from the list once the rebuild lands.
Regenerate the OpenAPI contract: the module-preferences PATCH body no
longer advertises the parked key.
Add an operator-side toggle matrix to the admin assistant section that
flips each toggleable module on or off server-wide via PATCH
/api/admin/settings/module-availability. Mirrors the assistant-flags
matrix: one neutral toggle per module, optimistic flip with a revert on
failure, and an authMe invalidation so the resolved module map re-gates
the session immediately. New admin.modules.* labels across all six
locales; core domains never appear.
