## What's Remaining (Optional Polish)

### Testing (Recommended):
1. **Test Encryption** (manual testing recommended)
   - Save sensitive setting via UI
   - Verify encrypted in DB (has "enc:" prefix)
   - Reload and verify decryption works
   - Test with cryptography not installed (graceful fallback)

2. **Test Wizard Flow** (manual testing recommended)
   - Fresh install scenario
   - All 3 steps complete
   - Settings saved to DB
   - Redirect to home after completion
   - Skip functionality

### Documentation (Recommended):
3. **Update Documentation**
   - Add encryption section to docs/SettingsManagement.md
   - Document setup wizard usage
   - Update SETTINGS_IMPLEMENTATION.md with encryption details
   - Add security notes about encryption key derivation
