Why: accounts are admin-issued (user decision 2026-09-30, no self
registration); initial and admin-reset passwords must force a change on
first login.
Evidence:
- LoginPage: password (primary) + API key tabs; ChangePasswordGate
blocks the app until the forced change completes (mismatch/length
validation inline); App auth state machine checking -> login ->
mustchange -> ok, session cookie flows through fetch automatically.
- Account menu gains change-password and admin-only user management;
AdminUsersModal: create account (random initial password generator,
admin checkbox), reset password, status table (ADMIN/USER, pending
change chips).
- Fixed a real bug found in the headless walk: menu toggles passed
e.currentTarget into the setState updater where React nulls it by
render time, so anchor was null and the menu never rendered; capture
the element before the updater.
- Headless journey on the real binary with --auth on: admin bootstrap
via CLI -> first-login forced change -> app; admin creates bob (bob
sees no user management); alice reset via CLI -> forced change on
next login; API-key tab login; logout; zero console errors. npm run
build + vitest green; make test full suite exit 0.
Impact: replaces the old API-key-only LoginGate; embedded no-auth mode
unchanged (no login page shown).
