Subject: [PATCH] fix(settings): say plainly which AI categories are
 context-only
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

All ten AI data-access categories offer a context toggle, but only five
(Apps, System, Network, Media, Bitcoin) have any tool behind them — Wallet,
Files, Search, Local AI and Notes grant the assistant visibility with
nothing to act on. The Settings copy implied actions that do not exist.

Operator decision (2026-08-09): ship honest copy now, build the tools as
ordinary backlog. Each of the five carries a contextOnly flag, a "context
only" badge, and an appended description line saying the assistant can see
this but can't take actions with it yet. Drop the flag per category as
real tools land.

Verified: vue-tsc clean.
