Problem

The shell toolbar renders a <button title="Log out"> (icon-only). There is no auth in the stack today — SYSTEM_KEY = "system" per hero_archipelagos/.../messaging_service.rs:266 is the dummy identity used 'until auth lands'. Clicking 'Log out' has no meaningful effect.

Two concerns:

Misleading UX — implies sessions exist when they don't.
Confusing for QA / agents looking at the dock — can't tell whether log-out is broken or simply unimplemented.

Suggested fix

Gate the Log out button on a feature flag / on auth being available. Until then, hide it (or leave it as a stub that surfaces a 'Coming with auth' toast so the intent is explicit).
