#5927 "Adopt the family idea secret.Box": the SMTP password and the backup bucket's secret key were kept as plain text in the settings table, so a copy of the database alone could read them. - New sealing.py: AES-GCM under an HKDF-derived key, each value bound to its setting's name. The key is a random file, /var/inkwell/sealing.key (0600), made on first use. It lives on the data volume, not in the database, which is where the signing secret sits by default. - set_settings seals a secret before storing it; get_setting opens it. A value that no longer opens (key file lost) reads as not set, so Settings asks for it again. - At startup, credentials stored before this are sealed in place, so nothing has to be re-entered. A data folder that can't be written never stops the server; saving a password then answers with the reason. - New dependency: cryptography (approved by the operator). Also #1919 "Deprecate / remove the PWA": kept. Its service worker caches only the offline page, so an installed copy always runs the live build. One stale comment in sw.js is corrected.
