The Answer(hopefully) to Who Fixed Little Chicago (FULL SPOILERS)

Can anyone else think of a reason Mab couldn't mess with the model if she wanted to?

No. Just wanted to add that Mab owns Harry's 'life, fortune, and future'...and I remember another statement of 'blood, bone, and breath' or something similar. So, from that perspective, Mab wasn't messing with Harry's model of Chicago. Mab was fixing her Little Chicago that she let [her] Harry build and keep in his apartment...that Mab let him live in.

Is there some reason that she couldn't step over and tweak a magical construct if she felt like it? Some rule that would prevent her from doing so, if the urge took her?]

Harry's wards and threshold ?

And not just breaking them but leaving no traces at all.

I still think our best bet, whoever did the actual fixing, is that they came in via Murph or Thomas' amulets and were allowed through the wards.
The pool of people who could convince Murph or Thomas of this seems small; the pool who could magically manipulate them into doing this is basically anyone Senior Council strength or stronger that we have seen or heard of, IMO. Who are also good candidates for having foresight or intellectus enough to see that an unfixed LC was a problem in the first place.
knnn:
Remember also that in "Backup" we've seen that Bob is willing to lie to Harry if it's in his good interest, so if someone said to Bob:
"I will show you where there's a fatal bug in your Chicago software if you swear not to tell Harry who did it", he probably would have agreed.
His subsequent "someone changed LC" could be the best he can do given this oath - it's a warning that the basement security is breachable.
