Managed connectors (grok.com MCP admin) removed root-and-branch: - The managed-MCP fetch/injection pipeline is gone, including the whole kigi-shell-session-support crate (managed-config fetch client, gateway tool catalog + dispatch, header injection, refresh task), reactive managed re-auth, mcp_doctor's grok.com-source discovery, and the [managed_mcps] config surface. - TUI: the 'Managed by grok.com' section, connectors URL/deep-link, Action::OpenManagedConnectors, and session_team_id are gone. Local MCP management (list/toggle/add/remove/auth/tools) is fully intact. - Kept as LOCAL policy: managed-settings.json MCP allow/deny enforcement, the multi-source local MCP merge, folder-trust gating. PluginOrigin Project/User labels kept (they tag locally discovered plugin dirs). imagine/media-gen tools (xAI image/video generation) removed: - image_gen, image_edit, video_gen, image_to_video, reference_to_video implementations, registrations, ToolKind/ToolInput/Output variants (serde-safe), config plumbing end to end, ZDR video machinery, /imagine + /imagine-video commands and guidance text, the bundled imagine skill (added to legacy cleanup so user installs delete it), and the media-gen render path. - Kept: image INPUT (paste/attach, [Image #N] meta, pdf/image fetch, clipboard wrap), generic media-ref rendering, and the generic tool 401-retry machinery (tests renamed, assertions unweakened). - deploy_app stays: it is a permanently-disabled local stub deploying nowhere. 121 files changed, 8 deleted. Gates: workspace check/clippy 0/0, fmt, deny ok; suites green (tools 2554, shell 4862, tui 6608, workspace 1042). Remaining grok.com strings live only in the auth-method ids and changelog archives (§9/M3 sweep).
