Description
Bug description
When you try to use a Team join invite that has expired (~was revoked) or no longer exists, you see this error page:
If you pay close attention to the top menu, it makes no sense (Branches? Prebuilds? Configure? 😳)
If you try to click these, they lead to empty pages that also make no sense:
Steps to reproduce
- Try to use an in-existent or expired invite link, e.g. https://at-project-auth.staging.gitpod-dev.com/teams/join?inviteId=769ac091-0446-4126-a0f3-64a33afbd7fa
- Observe/try the top menu
Expected behavior
The top menu should not be a team menu.
Maybe it could be a "minimal" menu? As configured here:

Research direction
Reproduce the expired or nonexistent invite flow with the provided teams/join URL, then inspect components/dashboard/src/Menu.tsx around the referenced lines. Confirm that this error state uses a minimal menu rather than team navigation, and verify that its menu items no longer lead to empty team pages.
