Hi, new user, I've been building a node red flow successfully for the last month or so on a headless Pi5, and all of a sudden the palette menu has disappeared when I went to install a new node. I haven't done anything on the pi5 expect node red and a database (influx), what would make the pallette menu go away on the UI?

You may have just hidden the pallet, move your mouse over to the far left and see if you get the toggle to open it again
Alternatively use the menu
I've never experienced this but I imagine something went wrong with the install. What node were you trying to install, and how?
Your flows are almost certainly safe, in /home/username/.node-red/flows.json.
Make a copy of the .node-red directory somewhere just in case, then reinstall Node-red using the official Raspberry Pi install script.
After that, restart Node-red and very likely the flows will be there, as will the palette, but maybe not all the contrib nodes you have installed
OK thanks I will try that - I was trying to install one of the loop nodes and it threw an error and wouldn't install, rebooting got me no pallette option.
