## [0.5.0] - 2026-02-08
### Added
- **Settings Management System**: Database-backed configuration management with web UI
- Admin-only settings page at `/settings` with 102 settings across 10 categories
- REST API endpoints: `GET/POST /api/settings/{key}`, `POST /api/settings/bulk-update`, `DELETE /api/settings/{key}`
- Settings organized by category: Core, Authentication, AI Services, Storage Providers, Email, IMAP, Monitoring, Processing, Notifications, Feature Flags
- Form pre-filled with current values, all fields optional for flexible editing
- Bulk update support for changing multiple settings at once
- **Encryption for Sensitive Settings**: Fernet symmetric encryption for database storage
- Automatic encryption/decryption for passwords, API keys, tokens, and secrets
- Encryption key derived from `SESSION_SECRET` via SHA256
- Values prefixed with `enc:` in database to identify encrypted data
- Graceful fallback if cryptography library unavailable (logs warning)
- Lock icon (🔒) in UI indicates encrypted fields
- **Setup Wizard**: First-time configuration wizard for fresh installations
- 3-step wizard: Infrastructure → Security → AI Services
- Auto-detects missing critical settings and redirects from homepage
- Beautiful UI with progress indicators and step navigation
- Auto-generate option for session secrets
- Skippable for advanced users
- Settings saved encrypted to database
- **Settings Precedence System**: Clear resolution order with visual indicators
- Precedence: Database > Environment Variables > Defaults
- Color-coded badges in UI: 🟢 DB (green), 🔵 ENV (blue), ⚪ DEFAULT (gray)

- Info section explaining precedence order
- **OAuth Admin Support**: Enhanced authentication for settings access
- Admin flag set from OAuth group membership (`admin` or `administrators`)
- Proper decorator pattern for admin access control
