rcourtman 7f45148d15 Drop the unused Patrol readiness-failure object behind the toggle toast (#2687)
Stacked on #2686 (which stacks on #2682 and #2674); this branch carries
their commits until they land. Only the top two commits are new.

## What

`buildPatrolSettingsReadinessFailure` built a full
`PatrolConfigurationFailureInput` for the Patrol page's inline "needs
attention" state. That state lost its render in 27ba85ddc6 (2026-06-23),
when the Configure Patrol popover was removed. Since then its only
production caller, the Patrol on/off toggle, has read just `.message`,
and that was always the fixed copy "Patrol setting was saved, but Patrol
is not ready to run."

- `getPatrolSavedReadinessWarning` returns that message when the saved
response reports `patrol_readiness` `not_ready`, and the toggle shows it
as a warning toast, as before.
- `buildReadinessDetails` and the `PatrolConfigurationFailureInput` type
are removed. Its last other consumer,
`getPatrolConfigurationFailureInlineDetails`, goes in #2686.
- The Assistant drawer still restores saved
`patrol_configuration_failure` sessions. Nothing on that path changed.

## Runtime delta

- Production builds of the parent and this branch differ in one chunk,
`AIIntelligence.js` (the Patrol page), which is 935 bytes smaller. After
normalising chunk hashes, SRI strings and minified identifiers, the only
change is the removed builder and details helper, replaced by one status
check. The toast string is byte-identical.
- The minifier had already folded `message || readiness.summary ||
default` to the caller's constant, so the readiness-summary fallback was
unreachable.
- The toggle no longer reads seven Patrol signals to build the object it
discarded.
- `check-bundle-size.mjs` passes.

## Verification

The same Playwright script ran against embedded builds of the parent and
this branch, at 1440 and 390 px, on a demo mock stack. Responses were
stubbed with `page.route`. All 31 observed fields were identical between
the two builds. In every case only a toast appears, with no inline
alert, no "needs attention" text and no Assistant action:

- Patrol on/off, switched off and back on, with a not-ready response:
the warning toast fires in both directions.
- A rejected Patrol mode save shows an error toast with the server
reason, and the mode returns to Watch only. An accepted save switches to
Ask first with no toast.
- Settings > Pulse Intelligence > Patrol and Provider & Models saves
with a not-ready response show a warning toast naming the summary,
provider and model.
- When Patrol status reports not ready, the page's own readiness banner
names the summary, provider and model, and the header shows Fix setup.

Tests: `src/features`, `src/utils` and `src/__tests__` pass, except the
known Mac-only `agentInstallCommand.test.ts`. `tsc --noEmit` passes.
contract, registry and status audits pass.

## Tests and pins

- The hook tests now cover the warning helper.
- The #1789 test pinned `blockedCause: patrolStatus()?.blocked_cause`.
That matched only the removed dead field, not the `blockedCause` memo
the test was written for, so it now pins the memo.
- `frontendResourceTypeBoundaries` pins the new helper name.
- A negative control (mutating both pinned lines) fails all four
affected tests.

## Contracts

`patrol-intelligence`, `frontend-primitives` and `api-contracts` still
described the retired Patrol schedule and model popover, its inline
dialog failure state, and a saved-configuration-issue surface with cause
metadata. They now say:

- where Patrol settings live (Settings > Pulse Intelligence > Patrol,
and Settings > Provider & Models);
- that every save outcome is a toast;
- that the Patrol page's readiness banner carries the not-ready
diagnosis.

The popover rules apply only if a popover returns. The popover-era
alert-trigger clauses are handled separately in
docs/patrol-settings-contract-location.

A second, docs-only commit fixes the patrol-intelligence clause that
still placed the Patrol mode selector in a "configuration dialog". The
selector now renders only in the header's `Mode and automation`
disclosure, and that clause sits directly under #2682's hunk, so it
lands here rather than in docs/patrol-settings-contract-location to
avoid a conflict.

Pulse documentation

Start here for installation, platform setup, security, operations, and Pulse Intelligence. Commands, configuration keys, image names, API fields, and product identifiers remain untranslated in localized guides.

Start here

  • Install Pulse — signed Proxmox/Linux installation, Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and first-run setup.
  • Production deployment and security — least-privilege Proxmox setup, root-agent boundaries, discovery, supply-chain verification, plan limits, scale evidence, and a rollout checklist.
  • Upgrade from Pulse v5 — migration prerequisites, rollback, agent continuity, and post-upgrade checks.
  • Releases and update channels: choosing Stable or Preview, beta and RC expectations, and how releases are tested and promoted.
  • Configure Pulse — authentication, notifications, discovery, retention, and system settings.
  • Deployment models — data locations, lifecycle, and differences between supported deployment paths.
  • Troubleshooting and FAQ — common failures, diagnostics, and operator questions.

Platforms and agents

VMware vSphere support is early access. Current builds expose dedicated vSphere inventory and recovery context, but operators should validate the integration against their own vCenter before production use.

Monitoring and operations

Pulse Intelligence

Patrol watch-only analysis is available on Community with a local model or the operator's own provider. Investigation and governed fixes require the relevant Pulse Pro capabilities.

Security, privacy, and access

Plans and managed access

Pulse Cloud is not generally available. Ordinary self-hosted Pulse remains the primary installation path; MSP and Enterprise access are explicit commercial paths rather than defaults in self-hosted setup.

Development and reference

Detailed design notes and dated migration specifications may remain in this directory for maintainers, but they are not operator setup guides unless they are linked from the sections above.
