Cluster-wide settings (domain, hostings, password policy, integrity algorithm, mail templates, etc.) move from per-core YAML to a replicated PlatformDB-backed store. Operators edit once and every core picks up the change; configuration drift between cores becomes detectable instead of silent.
Features:
- Single source of truth for ~15 platform-wide settings; YAML stays for per-core values (ports, paths, secrets) and bootstrap settings (PlatformDB connection, admin access key).
- Encrypted-secrets family: SMTP credentials and SMS provider URLs live in PlatformDB at-rest-encrypted, not scattered across per-core YAML.
- Live drift warnings on boot when a core's local YAML disagrees with the cluster-replicated value.
- Operator lockdown: declare which keys are externally managed (GitOps, Dokku, Cloudflare) and they become read-only in the admin surface.
- Public REST API for read/write with audit trail.
