Add duplicate node (Ctrl/Cmd+D and context menu), Delete-key node removal, Ctrl/Cmd+S save, a right-click context menu on nodes and the canvas with an add-step drill-in, a navigation minimap, and a snap-to-grid toggle. Fixes thunder-id#4063

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The new duplication and add-step actions can create duplicate nested component identifiers, which may misroute flow handles or edits and corrupt saved configurations; preview-from-step can also target synthetic compact-mode nodes. Merge should wait for canvas-wide identifier allocation and a guard against previewing synthetic nodes. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Preserve uniqueness for all canvas identifiers.
Line 523 includes node IDs only, and Line 526 retains only each copied node ID. Existing and newly generated nested component IDs can collide across copied nodes. Line 668 also creates a step ID without checking canvas IDs. A collision breaks drag-and-drop and validation identity lookup.

Purpose
Adds the canvas editing accelerators from #4063 to the flow builder: duplicate node, keyboard shortcuts, a right-click context menu, a navigation minimap, and snap to grid.
How to use
Screenshots
Approach
Duplication lives in
duplicateFlowNode.ts: fresh node and nested component ids, deep-cloned configuration, written into the source graph so compact mode, undo/redo, and the unsaved-changes indicator all behave. The context menu is a controlled menu wired through React Flow'sonNodeContextMenu/onPaneContextMenu; Open properties mirrors each node type's own configure action viabuildStepPropertiesResource.ts. Delete-key support extendsdeleteKeyCodeto Backspace and Delete; snap and minimap state live inFlowConfigContextnext to the existing edge-style and compact-mode toggles.Related Issues
