Step #5429 "Reset by email: request, link and new-password page" of
milestone 497 "Passwords: change your own, and reset it by email".
- Sign-in page: "Forgot your password?" while a mail server is set.
- /forgot takes a username or email and answers the same either way; only
an active local account with a real address gets mail. Requests count
per address on their own throttle, so they never lock out sign-in.
- password_resets (migration 0039): a one-time key, stored as its sha256,
working for an hour; asking again replaces it.
- /reset/<key>: the new password, then signed straight in; every other
browser is signed out (sessions_since). Bad keys count as invite keys do.
- Email "[Steward] Reset your password", in the account's own zone.
- Audited: user.password_reset_requested, user.password_reset_by_email.

The operator's ask: an invite link sent by mail, the key in the URL, and
the new user choosing their own username, password and email.
- user_invites (migration 0037): the key's sha256 only, the address, the
role and days the admin chose, who sent it, used/revoked.
- core/invites: create (revokes an older open invite to the address),
renew (new key, new clock), find_pending, the four states, signup checks.
- /invite/<key>, outside sign-in and throttled like login: the invitee's
username, email (prefilled, theirs to change) and password; the account
takes the admin's role, the key is used up in the same transaction and
they are signed in. A bad key gets one plain message.
- Settings › Users: Invite by email (address, role, 1/7/30 days), sent from
the admin in their zone; without a mail server, or if sending fails, the
link is shown once to copy. Invites not yet used are listed with Resend
and Withdraw.
- Audit: user.invited, user.invite_resent, user.invite_revoked, user.joined.

#5031 "Forged-request protection: SameSite cookie, per-session CSRF token
on every non-GET, HTMX header". A page on another site could make a
logged-in browser POST to Steward with the session cookie attached.
- steward/auth/csrf.py: a per-session token, checked in one before_request
for every POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE (header X-CSRF-Token or form field
csrf_token, constant-time compare). The bearer-authenticated host-agent
ingest is exempt; /mcp never reaches Quart.
- Every POST form renders {{ csrf_field() }}; base.html carries the token
in a meta tag and adds it to every HTMX request; the dashboard's fetch()
calls send it.
- The session cookie is SameSite=Lax; login issues a fresh token.
- PUBLIC_BASE_URL is now loaded from Settings at startup (it was only set
when Settings → General was saved).
- tests/test_csrf.py: refusal, acceptance, rotation, the ingest exemption,
and a guard that every POST form in the templates carries the field.

When a session has expired, require_role now bounces to /login?next=<path> and
sends the user back there after re-login.
- middleware: safe_next_url() (same-site relative path/query only; rejects
off-site, protocol-relative, javascript:, and the auth pages — no open
redirect). _login_redirect() builds the next param; for HTMX requests it uses
HX-Current-URL (the page, not the fragment) and HX-Redirect so the whole
browser navigates instead of swapping the login page into a fragment.
- login GET/POST carry `next` (hidden field), validated, used on success for
local + LDAP; OIDC stashes it in session across the IdP round-trip.
- login.html: hidden next field + next on the SSO link.
- tests for safe_next_url.

A fresh install had no prompt for general.public_base_url, so first-run agent
installs/share links silently used the request Host header. Add a "Steward URL"
field to the first-run /setup page (create-admin), pre-filled with the current
address, with help text. setup_post saves general.public_base_url and applies
it to app.config immediately (no restart). Editable later in Settings → General.
Scribe #896.

Renames the Python package directory, CLI command, env var prefix,
docker-compose service/container/image, Postgres role/db, and all
visible branding. Marketing form is "Fabled Steward".
Clean break from the previous rebrand: drops the fabledscryer→roundtable
import shim in __init__.py and the FABLEDSCRYER_* env var fallback in
config.py and migrations/env.py. Env vars are now STEWARD_* only.
Heads-up for existing deployments:
- Postgres user/db renamed fabledscryer → steward in docker-compose.yml.
Existing volumes need the role/db renamed inside Postgres, or override
POSTGRES_USER/POSTGRES_DB to keep the old names.
- Host-agent systemd unit is now steward-agent.service. Existing agents
keep running under the old name; reinstall to switch.
