+You also do **not** need `--link-component-token` here. `admin-cog:primary-menu` already declares `local.main.ui.surface-aware-menu-link-item` as its default link renderer, so JSKIT reuses that automatically when it writes the placement entry.

+It will be the block added for the `w/[workspaceSlug]/admin/contacts/[contactId]/addresses` page link.
+
+Depending on what outlets already exist in the app, that block may try to place `Addresses` in the shell menu or in the contact subpages outlet. For this example, remove it either way and keep navigation manual from the contact view.
+
+This is an intentional manual cleanup for now:
+
+- keep the routed pages
+- remove the auto menu link

+
+### Step 6: add a manual link from the contact view

+This is important enough to state explicitly: if a routed host has child pages, and you want the bare parent URL to open one child immediately, use an explicit redirect.

 Rules:
 
 - For “index page lands on child page” redirects, use `redirectToChild()` from `@jskit-ai/kernel/client/pageRedirects`.
+- The same helper is also the explicit pattern for “this host page should open child X by default”.
 - Do not hand-build child redirects with string surgery such as `` `${String(to.path || "").replace(/\\/$/, "")}/general` ``.
 - Keep the destination explicit. Do not infer it from placements, menu order, or “first child page wins” behavior.
 - If the redirect is just “go to this child page”, prefer:
