## Problem
In **preview mode**, clicking the user profile → **Account settings**
logs the user out and strands them on a sign-in page they can't get
past.
Root cause is a combination of three things:
- Preview mode uses an **in-memory** token store (`tokenStore:
"memory"`), so any full page reload wipes the session.
- The account-settings menu item calls
`app.redirectToAccountSettings()`, whose `redirectTo*` helpers fall
through to `window.location.assign` on the client — a **hard reload**.
- The `/handler/account-settings` route lives **outside** the
`(protected)` layout that performs the preview auto-login, so nothing
re-mints the preview session after the reload.
Net effect: hard nav → in-memory session wiped → `useUser({ or:
'redirect' })` finds no user → redirect to sign-in, with no way back in
(preview credentials are a throwaway UUID).
In normal (cookie) mode this is harmless because the cookie survives the
reload — the bug is preview-specific.
## Fix
Soft-navigate from the menu item using `app.useNavigate()` (a
`router.push` wrapper under the `"nextjs"` redirect method) instead of
`redirectToAccountSettings()`. A soft client-side navigation does not
re-evaluate the JS bundle, so the module-singleton app instance and its
in-memory token store stay alive.
The fix is scoped to the single dashboard call site rather than the
shared SDK `redirectToAccountSettings()` method, which ships to all
customers and intentionally hard-navigates for cross-domain / sign-out
flows.
## Note / follow-up
This covers navigation **from within the app**, which is the only in-app
entry point to account settings. It does **not** cover a hard refresh or
a direct link to `/handler/account-settings` in preview mode — those
still wipe the in-memory session because the handler route has no
auto-login. A fuller root-cause fix would bring the preview auto-login
(or the `(protected)` layout) to the handler route.

## Summary by cubic
Fixes preview-mode logout when opening Account settings by switching the
dashboard menu to a soft client-side nav using `app.useNavigate()`
instead of a hard reload. This preserves the in-memory session.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Soft-navigate to `/handler/account-settings` via `app.useNavigate()`
to avoid wiping the preview token.
- Change scoped to the dashboard menu; `redirectToAccountSettings()` in
the SDK remains unchanged.
