Area: Cross-cutting infra (audit p14) · Surface: platform/templates/partials/admin-branding-tabs.php · Dimension: deadcode · Severity: minor
templates/partials/admin-branding-tabs.php is a tab-strip partial for /admin/branding that no template includes. /admin/branding/index.php renders the tab strip inline (brn-tabs nav, line 113). The only reference is a comment in the (also-orphaned) admin-config-tabs.php.
Evidence
`$ grep -rn "admin-branding-tabs" src/ templates/ public/ bin/ --include=*.php | grep -v 'templates/partials/admin-branding-tabs.php:'` → only one hit: templates/partials/admin-config-tabs.php:4 (' * Mirrors templates/partials/admin-branding-tabs.php.') — a cross-docblock mention, not an include. /admin/branding (templates/admin/branding/index.php:113) renders its tabs inline with `<nav class="brn-tabs">` over $brandingTabs.
Suggested fix. Delete templates/partials/admin-branding-tabs.php (and admin-config-tabs.php together, since they only cross-reference each other).
Filed by the automated tenant-app audit and adversarially evidence-verified. Status: verified. Open — not yet actioned.
