/**
 * The MCP screen's own header row, portalled into the admin shell's header the
 * way the Analytics route does it (`analytics/components/Chrome.js`).
 *
 * The page needs the title, the status badge and the master switch on one row
 * (ADR-062), and the switch reads state this component's parent owns — so the
 * row cannot be built out of the shell's `betterdocs_admin_header_title` /
 * `_action_icons` filters, which are registered in `Routes.js`, outside this
 * tree. `Header.js` therefore skips its default row for `betterdocs-mcp` and
 * this row takes its place, carrying the dark-mode switcher across with it:
 * that switcher is the only global control on the screen, and dropping the
 * shell row without re-rendering it is what U12b refused to do.
 *
 * @since 4.9.0
