feat(control-panel): add authenticated maintainer settings update

[enjoyandlove]

Summary

• Add POST /v1/app/repos/:owner/:repo/settings — an authenticated maintainer-facing endpoint for updating repository automation settings (public surface mode, label name, check mode, linked issue policy, maintainer-author inclusion, etc.).
• Enforce role-based authorization: requires maintainer, owner, or operator role; session users are additionally scoped to repos they have evidence for (requireSessionRepoAccess).
• Record a settings.updated audit event on every successful change (actor, target repo, key fields changed).
• Response is the plain RepositorySettings type — no private scoring context, wallet, hotkey, or compensation language.

Scope

• This PR is focused and does not mix unrelated backend, UI, MCP, docs, dependency, and deploy changes.
• This follows CONTRIBUTING.md and does not reintroduce GitHub Pages, VitePress, site/, or CNAME.
• I linked an issue, or this is small enough that the summary explains why an issue is not needed.

Closes #130.

Validation

• git diff --check
• npm run actionlint
• npm run typecheck
• npm run test:coverage locally; global coverage stays at or above 97% for lines, statements, functions, and branches (aim for 98%+ branch coverage locally so CI variance does not fail near the threshold)
• npm run test:workers
• npm run build:mcp
• npm run test:mcp-pack
• npm run ui:openapi:check
• npm run ui:lint
• npm run ui:typecheck
• npm run ui:build
• npm audit --audit-level=moderate
• New or changed behavior has unit/integration tests for new branches, fallback paths, and sanitizer boundaries

If any required check was skipped, explain why:

• test:workers, build:mcp, test:mcp-pack, ui:lint, ui:typecheck, ui:build, npm audit — not run locally; no MCP, worker, or UI code was changed.

Safety

• No secrets, wallet details, hotkeys, coldkeys, user PATs, private keys, raw trust scores, private rankings, or private maintainer evidence are exposed.
• Public GitHub text stays sanitized, low-noise, and does not imply compensation guarantees or optimization tactics.
• Auth, cookie, CORS, GitHub App, Cloudflare, or session changes include negative-path tests.
• API/OpenAPI/MCP behavior is updated and tested where needed.
• UI changes use live API data or real empty/error/loading states, not production mock/demo fallbacks.
• Visible UI changes include screenshots or a short recording.
• Public docs/changelogs are updated where needed; changelogs are only edited for release-prep PRs.

UI and docs checkboxes are not applicable — this is a backend-only change.

Notes

• The endpoint lives under /v1/app/ so browser sessions can reach it (the general auth middleware only allows sessions on /v1/app/* paths).
• Static API token callers (operator) bypass the repo-scope check, matching the existing pattern for all other /v1/app/* operator routes.
• 8 integration tests cover: operator success + audit trail, maintainer session (PR-association evidence), non-maintainer → insufficient_role, out-of-scope repo → forbidden_repo, unauthenticated → 401, invalid body → 400, private-language boundary, owner-installation session.

Requesting changes. CI is green, but the new settings update route only forwards part of the parsed settings schema, which would reset existing gate/policy settings to defaults. No merge action taken.

[JSONbored]

One additional line-level issue from the updated hardening pass. The existing requested-changes review still applies; no merge action taken.

[JSONbored]

@enjoyandlove the main route behavior is improved now.

A few notes:

• The settings update now forwards the parsed policy/gate fields and rejects malformed JSON instead of writing defaults.
• The remaining blockers are branch hygiene and issue integrity.
• apps/gittensory-ui/public/downloads/gittensory-extension.zip is unrelated to this backend API endpoint and should not be committed here.
• #130 is the broader maintainer control-panel issue; this endpoint is one slice of it, not a full close.

Required changes:

• Remove the committed extension zip from the branch.
• Retitle the PR to feat(control-panel): add maintainer settings update endpoint.
• Change the closing reference so this does not claim to fully close #130 unless the actual control-panel surface is complete.

Validation expected:

• Rerun the maintainer settings integration tests, OpenAPI check, and the standard backend validation.

[JSONbored]

@enjoyandlove the authenticated settings endpoint is the right product direction, but this branch still mixes in unrelated artifacts.

A few notes:

• The route/auth/audit/OpenAPI work is close to the issue surface.
• The committed apps/gittensory-ui/public/downloads/gittensory-extension.zip does not belong in a maintainer settings endpoint PR.
• The extension queue-level tests are also unrelated to the settings update endpoint and make the branch harder to review safely.

Required changes:

- Remove apps/gittensory-ui/public/downloads/gittensory-extension.zip from the PR.
- Remove unrelated extension queue-level test changes unless they are split into their own issue-specific PR.
- Keep this branch scoped to the settings update endpoint, auth/repo access, audit behavior, OpenAPI, and matching tests.
- Rebase after the current API/OpenAPI queue is settled and refresh generated artifacts.

Validation expected:

- focused maintainer settings route/integration tests
- ui:openapi:check
- full validate

@enjoyandlove the authenticated settings endpoint is the right product direction, but this branch should be restarted from a clean endpoint-only branch.

A few notes:

• The route/auth/audit/OpenAPI portion is close to a useful feat(control-panel): add maintainer control panel #130 slice.
• apps/gittensory-ui/public/downloads/gittensory-extension.zip still does not belong in a maintainer settings endpoint PR, and Superagent is still action-required on that binary.
• The MCP release script change and extension queue-level tests are also outside the settings update endpoint scope.
• The PR still claims the broader feat(control-panel): add maintainer control panel #130 control-panel issue even though it only implements one backend slice.

A replacement PR should:

• Include only the settings update endpoint, OpenAPI/generated artifact updates, and focused route/auth/audit tests.
• Remove the extension zip and unrelated MCP/extension test changes.
• Link or describe the specific feat(control-panel): add maintainer control panel #130 slice being completed instead of claiming the full parent issue.
• Pass validate and Superagent without action-required findings.
