fix(settings): clear managed mode with the last admin key and say how to recover - #7961
A managed node only takes configuration from an admin key holder, so saving it managed with no admin key leaves a node nobody can change, and nothing in the app told a locked-out user how to get back. This matches Apple, which already clears managed mode with the last key.
🐛 Bug Fixes
Saving with no admin key left turns managed mode off. Only a 32-byte key counts, as in firmware, so blank or short slots don't keep it on or enable the toggle. The switch shows off while no key is set and keeps the user's choice while a key is being replaced.
The managed mode setting now says that losing every admin key means erasing the node with the web flasher, linked to https://flasher.meshtastic.org.
Testing Performed
ManagedModeAdminKeyTest: saving with no key, with only blank or short slots, a blank slot before a valid key, and clearing then replacing the sole key.
The managed-mode setting now checks for non-empty admin keys, turns managed mode off when none remain, and displays recovery guidance that links to the web flasher.

Admin key handling and recovery guidance .skills/compose-ui/strings-index.txt, core/resources/src/commonMain/composeResources/values/strings.xml, feature/settings/src/commonMain/kotlin/org/meshtastic/feature/settings/radio/component/SecurityConfigScreen.kt, feature/settings/src/commonTest/kotlin/org/meshtastic/feature/settings/radio/component/ManagedModeAdminKeyTest.kt
Admin-key edits now turn managed mode off when no non-empty key remains. The switch requires a non-empty admin key and a connection. The setting displays recovery guidance that links to the web flasher. Tests cover removing all keys, leaving only an empty slot, and retaining one of multiple keys.
Severity of issue fixed: Medium
Merge Risk: Low · previous review c29b0
Replacing the sole admin key can unintentionally disable managed mode unless the user turns it back on before saving. This is a bounded behavior change that should be corrected or explicitly accepted before merging.

Explanation
The title names the two main changes: managed mode is now cleared with the last admin key, and the recovery path is documented. The changeset does both. The SecurityConfigScreen.kt change and the new ManagedModeAdminKeyTest cover the first, and the strings.xml and strings-index.txt additions cover the second. The title is specific, follows the conventional commit style, and is one sentence. Its 80-character length is at the upper end of a concise title, but it is still readable.

Explanation
Issue #7957 has two coding requirements. Both are implemented at the reviewed head (c29b0cf).
Clear managed mode when the last admin key is removed [#7957]. In SecurityConfigScreen.kt, the admin-key list editor calls withAdminKeys(it). That helper sets is_managed = false when keys.none { it.size > 0 }. The form state is saved later, so managed mode is cleared before the config is saved. Blank list slots do not count as keys, because hasAdminKey() tests admin_key.any { it.size > 0 }. The toggle is enabled only when state.connected && formState.value.hasAdminKey(). ManagedModeAdminKeyTest covers three cases: removing the last key, leaving only a blank slot, and removing one of several keys. These cases match the code.
Recovery help text with a link to the web flasher [#7957]. SecurityConfigScreen.kt renders AutoLinkText with Res.string.managed_mode_recovery under the managed-mode switch. The string resource is referenced and imported at head. The string text was not read directly. The core/resources strings.xml file view was truncated, and the diff for that file was unavailable. This conclusion relies on the code reference and the change summary, which states the text warns that lost admin keys require erasing the node with the web flasher. The PR description states the link target is https://flasher.meshtastic.org. The exact URL in the string was not verified.
No coding requirement remains unmet in the evidence reviewed.

Explanation
The whole-PR change set (merge base 502d6ea to head c29b0cf) contains these files. Each one supports the linked issue #7957 objectives.
core/resources/.../values/strings.xml: adds the managed_mode_recovery string. This is required by the help-text objective.
.skills/compose-ui/strings-index.txt: adds an index entry for the new string key. This is documentation for the new resource.
feature/settings/.../SecurityConfigScreen.kt: adds the recovery notice, the hasAdminKey() and withAdminKeys() helpers, and the toggle enablement change. These implement both objectives.
feature/settings/.../ManagedModeAdminKeyTest.kt: adds tests for the managed-mode clearing logic. These are supporting tests for the change.
No file or hunk was found that lacks a connection to #7957. The files are the expected set for the change. Only the strings.xml content could not be read directly, as noted in the linked-issue assessment. This does not affect the scope result.

Explanation
The new admin-key presence check is used for the managed-mode switch and key edits. The other admin_key references do not contain sibling presence checks. The diff adds no measured field with a zero default.
Full details: Tests Prove The Path, Not The End State
Explanation
The new tests call helpers directly, so they still pass if the admin-key editor and managed-mode toggle revert to their previous behavior. They do not verify the configuration sent on save. Also, the multiple-key test passes with the previous key-update logic: it already retained the remaining key and managed mode.
Resolution
Add tests that edit admin keys through the setting and assert the saved configuration. Verify that blank keys disable the toggle and that the remaining key survives.
Full details: Regression Coverage For Changed Behavior
Explanation
Regression coverage has three gaps: - SecurityConfigScreenCommon admin-key editing and save: The helper tests do not exercise the editor callback or saved radio config. A wiring regression could still save managed mode without a key. - Managed-mode switch: No test verifies that a blank-only key list disables the switch while a real key enables it. The helper test only checks hasAdminKey() after an edit. - Recovery notice: No screen test verifies that the notice is displayed and links to the web flasher. The new text ends the URL with a period, which the shared autolink matcher can include in the link target.
Resolution
Add screen-level regression tests that remove the last key and verify the saved config has is_managed = false; verify switch state for blank-only and non-empty keys, including disconnected state; and verify the recovery notice exposes the exact link https://flasher.meshtastic.org. Ensure these tests fail without the relevant changes.

Test a blank slot before a valid admin key.
The tests would not catch hasAdminKey() checking only the first slot. That regression would disable the managed-mode switch when a blank slot precedes a valid key.
Add an ordering test
