feat(gui): settings panel with locale and theme preferences

Add the browser Settings surface as slot-composed plugins over new
preference services:

- Rename dsh-client-i18n to dsh-client-locale (locale is the domain
  name); LocaleService adds getLocale()/setLocale(id), immutable
  snapshots, a locale/change event, and dsh.locale persistence.
- ThemeService owns the light/dark/system preference (default system),
  resolves system via prefers-color-scheme, publishes theme/change
  snapshots, persists dsh.theme, and no longer touches the DOM;
  ui-layout's ThemePresenter applies resolved snapshots
  (body[data-ds-dark-theme] + alias tokens) and cleans up on dispose.
- ui-sidebar drops the phase-1 settings dropdown/modal; the foot renders
  the new sidebar.settings slot with the column state.
- New ui-settings shell occupies sidebar.settings: foot trigger row and
  the centered 1080x700 panel (figma 501:29947) with 24% mask, close
  button / mask click / Escape all closing, and a 188px nav projected
  from the settings.section list slot it declares. Nav labels are
  registrant-localized; sections re-register on locale change, so the
  ledger version is the shell's only subscription.
- ui-settings-general registers the General section: Permission and
  Tool Call skeletons, live Language (locale menu) and Appearance
  (Light/Dark/System cubes following the persisted preference); its
  slot store mirrors both service snapshots via apply-side listeners.
- ui-settings-models registers the Models nav entry with an empty
  content column.
- Portaled menus pin z-index above modal overlays (a menu anchored
  inside the settings dialog rendered underneath it and was
  unclickable).
- theme/data/list-pen icons in ui-primitives; settings copy ships as
  zh/en dictionaries; fixture manifests gain the settings rows.

+# Agent Note: Client Settings、Locale 与 Theme 分层
+
+Status: proposed
+
+## Problem
+
+浏览器端已有的 Settings 直接写在 Sidebar 内，语言和主题也由组件本地状态直接改 DOM。这使 Settings 无法由独立插件扩展，偏好状态没有稳定的跨插件服务契约，主题 registry 同时承担状态与呈现职责。
+
+## Proposal
+
+Sidebar 声明 `sidebar.settings` 单坑位，`ui-settings` 占用它并声明 `settings.section` list 坑位。每个 section 由独立插件贡献；Settings 壳只从 slot ledger 读取 entry metadata 生成导航，通过 `only` 渲染当前 section。
+
+Settings 入口是 sidebar Foot 的 Settings 行，点击直接打开 1080×700 居中浮层（黑 24% 遮罩）；close 按钮、点击遮罩、ESC 均关闭。无任何中间菜单形态。
+
+`@deepseek-ai/dsh-client-locale` 提供 `ctx.locale`，`ui-theme` 提供 `ctx.theme`。两个 service 都以 getter 读取、setter 写入并用 typed Cordis change event 发布 immutable snapshot；service 自己持久化偏好（只存 id，坏值回退默认）。
+
+General 的 apply 层订阅 `locale/change` 和 `theme/change`，把 snapshot 投影到该 section 声明的 Zustand store。React 组件只读 `useStore`、写注入的 setter callback，不读取 ctx 或 service。
+
+Theme 偏好三态：`light`、`dark`、`system`，默认 `system`（无持久化偏好或坏值时）。system 的解析属主题领域：ThemeService 持有 `prefers-color-scheme` matchMedia 监听（环境感知，非 DOM 呈现），偏好为 system 且系统配色变化时重发 snapshot；snapshot 同时携带 `preference` 与解析后的 `active` 定义。
+
+Theme service 不操作 DOM。`ui-layout` 初始读取 Theme getter，随后订阅 `theme/change`，由 Layout 持有的 presenter 按 `active` 更新 `body[data-ds-dark-theme]` 和主题 token；presenter 不感知 system，只消费已解析结果。
+
+### 首期 section 范围
+
+| section | 插件 | 首期内容 |
+|---|---|---|
+| General | `ui-settings-general` | Language（Selector 下拉）与 Appearance（Light/Dark/System 三 cube）真实可切；Permission、Tool Call 仅视觉骨架，无写操作 |
+| Models | `ui-settings-models` | 仅导航项，内容区为空 |
+| Plugin | 不建包 | 首期不做，导航不出现该项（无目标的外链入口不上屏；后续插件注册 section 即自动出现） |
+
+首期只翻译 Settings 浮层内文案（General 各行 + 导航）；其他页面文案不动。
+
+### Slot topology
+
+```text
+root
+└─ sidebar
+   └─ sidebar.settings                 single/root
+      └─ ui-settings
+         └─ settings.section           list/root
+            ├─ general                 ui-settings-general
+            └─ models                  ui-settings-models
+```
+
+section contribution 使用 declaration-aware deferral，不依赖 client manifest 的 apply 顺序。
+
+### Service contracts
+
+```ts
+type ThemePreference = 'light' | 'dark' | 'system'
+
+interface ThemeSnapshot {
+  preference: ThemePreference
+  active: ThemeDefinition            // system 已解析为具体 light/dark 定义
+  themes: readonly ThemeDefinition[]
+  revision: number
+}
+
+interface LocaleSnapshot {
+  active: 'zh' | 'en'
+  locales: readonly LocaleDefinition[]
+  revision: number
+}
+
+interface Events {
+  /** @param snapshot - Current locale registry snapshot. @mode emit */
+  'locale/change'(snapshot: LocaleSnapshot): void
+  /** @param snapshot - Current theme registry snapshot. @mode emit */
+  'theme/change'(snapshot: ThemeSnapshot): void
+}
+```
+
+Locale 内置中文和 English；`setLocale`/`setTheme` 是唯一写入口，未知 id 失败。
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+**由 app shell 统一订阅偏好并重渲染 root slot tree。** 语言和主题变化只需要更新实际消费者；全树刷新放大影响面，也把业务偏好接入 shell。
+
+**Theme service 直接修改 DOM。** registry service 因此依赖呈现环境，生命周期与全局样式所有权不清；Layout 已经拥有页面根呈现边界。
+
+**system 由 Layout presenter 解析。** presenter 需自带 matchMedia 订阅并在 themes 列表里挑选具体定义，呈现层被迫理解偏好语义；解析放服务侧则所有消费者拿到一致的已解析 snapshot。
+
+**Settings import 并枚举各 section。** 新增页面必须修改壳插件，破坏「每个功能由自己的插件占坑」的组合模型。
+
+**把 Locale/Theme snapshot 直接注入 React。** inject 结果按 entry identity 缓存，易变值会陈旧；为每个 service 自造 React hook 也绕开 slot store 的统一绑定。
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- Settings 壳只依赖 slot ledger，不依赖任一 section 实现。
+- Locale 与 Theme 的写入只走 setter，持续同步只走 change event。
+- General store 初始化走 getter，后续由两个 event 更新并局部重渲染。
+- Layout 独立应用 Theme snapshot，Theme service 不访问 DOM；presenter 不出现 system 分支。
+- 中文/English 与 Light/Dark/System 能切换并刷新后恢复；偏好为 system 时系统配色变化即时生效。
+- Models 只有导航项与空内容区；Permission、Tool Call 骨架无写操作。
+- 浮层经 close 按钮、遮罩点击、ESC 均可关闭。
+
+## Risks
+
+slot 声明与 contribution 的 apply 顺序不固定，所有新 section 必须保留 declaration-aware registration 和幂等防护。service event 可能早于 section 首次渲染，General store 的 init 与 controller attach 都必须从 getter 对齐当前 snapshot。Layout 卸载时必须清理自己设置的全局属性，ThemeService dispose 时必须移除 matchMedia 监听，避免 HMR 后残留。

-i18n plugin: I18nService (ns×locale dictionaries, bind(ns)→t with a stable function identity, locale store). Contract: api-contracts v3 §8.
-
-## Model Experience
-
-None, as the i18n registry serves browser UI copy; nothing here reaches a model request.
-
-#### KV Cache effect
-
-None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.
-
-## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
-
-- **zh/en ship as empty structures** — the existing UI copy is inline Chinese; extraction into dictionaries is deferred repo-wide work, so `bind(ns)` consumers today mostly receive key-echo fallbacks.
-- **Locale switching re-renders the whole tree** — accepted as a low-frequency operation; no per-namespace subscription granularity.

+# @deepseek-ai/dsh-client-locale
+
+Locale plugin: LocaleService — the browser locale preference (`zh`/`en`, persisted under `dsh.locale`, getter/setter with `locale/change` snapshots) plus the ns×locale dictionary registry (`bind(ns)`→t with a stable function identity; lookup chain active → zh → key).
+
+## Model Experience
+
+None, as the locale registry serves browser UI copy; nothing here reaches a model request.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+- **Only the Settings surface is translated** — other pages keep inline copy; repo-wide extraction into dictionaries is deferred.
+- **Locale switching re-renders subscribed consumers only** — sections not wired to `locale/change` keep their rendered text until remount.

+Shell plugin: three-column AppFrame (drag handles and concession chain) plus the `ctx.layout` panel-geometry service; it registers into the runtime-owned `root` slot and declares `sidebar`, `conversation`, `details`, and `conversation.empty`. The sidebar is fixed-width (only details shrinks, then auto-closes); a closed sidebar retains a 56px control rail while details closes to zero width. The package also seats the theme presenter: it consumes resolved `ctx.theme` snapshots and projects them onto `document.body` (`data-ds-dark-theme` from the active color scheme plus the theme's alias tokens as inline variables).
 
 AppFrame reads the runtime Session projection: `baselinesReady` selects loading, a page-local `SessionListState.intent` selects the empty composer, and a connected Session renders through `SessionProvider`. The conversation and empty-state owner shares are empty; each registrant obtains business data from standard hooks and actions from its own inject face. The sidebar owner share contains only `collapsed` and `width`; navigation actions belong to sidebar's own injected service face.

+# @deepseek-ai/dsh-client-ui-settings-general
+
+General settings section plugin: registers the `general` entry into `settings.section`. Language (中文/English) and Appearance (Light/Dark/System) are live preferences wired to `ctx.locale` / `ctx.theme`; Permission and Tool Call rows are visual skeletons with no write surface.
+
+## Model Experience
+
+None, as the section renders browser preference UI; nothing here reaches a model request.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+- **Permission and Tool Call are display skeletons** — the backing host services and RPC methods do not exist yet; the controls are disabled and write nothing.

+Models settings section plugin: registers the `models` nav entry into `settings.section` with an intentionally empty content column — model management lands in a later phase.
+
+## Model Experience
+
+None, as the section renders an empty browser UI column; nothing here reaches a model request.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+- **Content column is empty by design** — provider list, editing form, and activation flow are deferred until the model-management service exists.

+# @deepseek-ai/dsh-client-ui-settings
+
+Settings shell plugin: the sidebar trigger row and the modal settings panel occupying `sidebar.settings`; declares the `settings.section` list slot that section plugins contribute pages into. The shell projects the section ledger into navigation and renders only the active section (`only` filtering).
+
+## Model Experience
+
+None, as the settings shell serves browser UI composition; nothing here reaches a model request.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+- **Panel is browser-preference scope only** — host-side settings (permission mode, tool-call mode) render as skeletons in the General section; no RPC surface exists yet.

 ## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
 
-- **No theme-switch control ships in P-I** — the service surface (register/apply/current) is complete but no UI owner mounts a toggle; switching happens programmatically.
 - **Third-party themes are a surface, not a product** — registering one means overriding same-named alias variables; no validation exists that an override set is complete.
 - **The token sheets are the sole color authority** — values absent from cssdesign (for example the design's #4176E6 tab blue) are deliberately not appended; the nearest semantic token wins (arbitrated 2026-07-22).
