Admin polish — roles you can read, invites that mean something

Settings and Users got less scroll-hostile; invite links can mint any assignable role; Hub Alerts can ping the desktop if you want.

Staff UI was doing the job, but Settings was a long hallway and Users was a spreadsheet cosplay. This pass is mostly about scanning less and inviting better.

Settings uses accordion sections and a jump TOC. Role cards show scope badges. The permission editor knows Member / Own / Crew / Everyone / Staff, with filter, group All/None, and Friend / Editor / Owner templates so you’re not inventing keys by feel.

Users is a card grid — avatar, role/status, quota meter — with quota defaults collapsed until you need them. Signup invite links can assign any assignable role (not only friend); the role rides on the token into signup.

On Hub, Library rate limits (zip / download / stream) flash in-app and can alert staff with ops alerts. Account → Preferences can enable desktop notifications for Hub Alerts on that browser — optional, local permission, not a marketing channel.

Admin stays at admin.walkerjacob.com. Members stay on Hub. Same story as Hub is not Admin.
