Select a secret first

Error message

Select a secret first

What it means

Selection guard in the Secrets rotateMutation: rotation operates on a specific secret, but selectedSecret is null (no row chosen in the detail pane), so the mutation refuses to run rather than sending a rotation request without a target id.
