Adds a toggle to control whether nodemon watches only server/ files or the entire project tree. When enabled, pulling client-only changes (CSS, HTML, JS) won't restart the server -- just refresh the browser. - New `global.serverOnlyFileWatching` boolean in user-settings (default: false) - Launcher script `scripts/dev-server.js` reads the setting at startup and passes `--watch server/ --watch .env` to nodemon when enabled - Settings panel toggle under new "Developer" section - Updated `dev:server` script to use the launcher
