wtclaude 2b93529ef6 docs(website): record the uo-link client's config-decrypt contract and the dashboard's mixed tier
Two corrections found by a live smoke test of all 200 routes at every access
level (website PR: fix/uolink-client-throw-and-sitemode-gate).

ARCHITECTURE.md: the "uoLinkClient never throws" invariant was true of the HTTP
call but not of resolving the config, which decrypts the stored auth token and
throws when the ciphertext can't be authenticated (SECRET_ENC_KEY rotated, or a
DB dump restored under a different key). Spell out that this is now handled
inside the client, reported as { ok: false, error: 'uo-link config unreadable' }
with a distinct ERROR log, and that GET /admin/uo-link/config keeps working —
it is the screen an admin needs to re-enter the token and recover.

BACKEND_DESIGN.md: GET /dashboard is staff-wide while PUT /site-mode on the
same screen is adminOnly — the one place a single screen spans two tiers. Note
that the client must gate that control itself rather than relying on the route
gate that admitted the user to the page.

Provenance

  • website/* was extracted from RunicGateway/website via git filter-repo.
  • link/* was extracted from RunicGateway/link via git filter-repo.

Commit history and authorship for each doc are preserved. The two source repos retain a short pointer to this repo in their own READMEs; the authoritative copy of each document now lives here.
