Gate the suite behind a self-contained login (no external IdP):
- User model with bcrypt-hashed passwords; admin/user roles
- /api/auth endpoints: login, logout, me, change-password, and
admin-only user management (list/create/delete/reset/enable)
- Stateless JWT session in an HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax, auto-Secure
cookie; middleware refuses every /api data route without a session
- login.html + auth-guard.js: login page and per-page guard with a
top-right "name / Admin / Sign out" pill
- Admin Console now gated on admin role (passphrase gate removed) with
a User administration card
- manage_users.py CLI to bootstrap the first admin
- Rebuilt help.js into a searchable, multi-topic help center
- Local-dev convenience: app serves html/ so the site + API share one
origin under uvicorn (inactive in the prod container)
- Docs/env: AUTH_SECRET_KEY, requirements (bcrypt, PyJWT), README

The api crash-looped because DATABASE_URL had an un-encoded special-char
password (@/!), so SQLAlchemy parsed part of the password as the host
("...@db" → name resolution failure).
db.py now prefers building the connection from POSTGRES_USER/PASSWORD/DB via
SQLAlchemy URL.create(), which encodes the password automatically — any
password works with no manual escaping. DATABASE_URL remains an optional
override (still must be hand-encoded if used). docker-compose now passes the
POSTGRES_* vars to the api container; DEPLOYMENT.md updated (incl. a Portainer
env-vars note).
