🟡 Medium settings/KeybindingsSettings.tsx:764

Saving a different keybinding resets this row's in-progress when edit, because row.binding.whenAst gets a fresh object whenever the custom config is recompiled even when this row's persisted value is unchanged. Depend on the persisted row.when expression instead, so the draft resets only when this row actually changes.

Saving a different keybinding resets this row's in-progress `when` edit, because `row.binding.whenAst` gets a fresh object whenever the custom config is recompiled even when this row's persisted value is unchanged. Depend on the persisted `row.when` expression instead, so the draft resets only when this row actually changes.

P2 Badge Keep drafts across unrelated keybinding refreshes

When another keybinding is edited through keybindings.json or a second client, the server recompiles and streams the entire configuration, giving unchanged conditional rules new whenAst object references. This dependency then fires and overwrites keyDraft and whenDraft, silently discarding an in-progress edit even though this row's persisted key and condition did not change. Depend on stable scalar values such as row.key and row.when, or compare those values before resetting, so unrelated configuration refreshes preserve drafts.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Use stable persisted values for the row reset effect.

When the server recompiles all bindings after a save, an unchanged row receives a new binding.whenAst object. The effect then resets that row's unsaved draft. Use persisted row values as dependencies. They still reset the draft when command, key, or serialized when changes.

In `@apps/web/src/components/settings/KeybindingsSettings.tsx` at line 764, Update
the row reset effect’s dependency list near the effect keyed by row.key and
row.binding.whenAst to use stable persisted row values instead of the recreated
binding.whenAst object, while retaining reset behavior when the persisted
command, key, or serialized when value changes.
