Merge branch 'master' into feat/issue-638-webui-app-shell-phase1

Resolve conflict remediation for PR #818 (Closes #638) against master
caaae9b6. Two conflicts in webui/app.py, both resolved as unions since
the Phase 1 shell work (#638) and the merged master changes touch
disjoint concerns:

- Imports: keep the new webui.nav (NAV_GROUPS, STUB_PAGES) import from
  #638 alongside master's expanded project_registry / project_views API
  (ProjectRegistry, RegistryError, known_project_ids,
  project_detail_to_dict, render_registry_error).
- Route table: keep master's read-only /api/console/security-model route
  alongside #638's read-only Phase 1 stub routes (STUB_PAGES).

No behavior change beyond union; console stays read-only. docs/webui-local-dev.md
auto-merged. Full webui suite green (272 passed, 310 subtests).

+## Application shell — Phase 1 (#638)
+
+The console shell (`webui/layout.py`) renders a grouped navigation driven by a
+single nav-config module, `webui/nav.py`. Nav groups follow the epic #631
+Phase 1 information architecture: **Health, Traffic, Runtime/Sessions,
+Projects, Inventory, Timeline, Policy** (placeholder), and **Insights**
+(placeholder). Live views and Phase 1 placeholders (`stub`) are declared in one
+place so the layout and the route table cannot drift.
+
+The header carries two read-only status badges — an **environment** badge
+(`local` for loopback binds, `remote` otherwise, derived from `WEBUI_HOST`) and
+a **mode: read-only** badge — plus a **Docs** link to this document. No
+privileged action controls are present in the Phase 1 shell.
+
+Not-yet-implemented surfaces (`/sessions`, `/inventory`, `/timeline`,
+`/policy`, `/insights`) resolve to graceful read-only stub pages instead of
+404s; their backing views land in later child issues of #631 (the inventory
+surfaces are backed by #636). Mutating methods on stub routes still fail closed
+with `read-only-mvp`.
+
 ## Deployment boundary (#435)
 
 MVP serves on loopback by default. Binding `0.0.0.0` or `::` is **refused**
