Closes the forgot-login-password gap. A per-profile recovery question + answer lets
a locked-out user reset their own password.
- DB: additive recovery_question + recovery_answer_hash columns (idempotent
migration). set/get-question/verify/has methods; answer is hashed (pbkdf2) and
matched forgivingly (trim + lowercase + collapse whitespace). No recovery set →
never verifies.
- Endpoints (allowlisted in the login gate so they work pre-auth):
GET /api/auth/recovery-question?username= (generic 404 when absent),
POST /api/auth/recovery-reset {username, answer, new_password} — brute-force
limited; a correct answer sets the new password + authenticates the session.
POST /api/profiles/<id>/set-recovery (admin or self) to configure it.
Tests: set/get/verify, forgiving match, hashed-not-plaintext, no-recovery-never-
verifies, full reset flow (wrong answer rejected + password intact; correct answer
resets), unknown-user 404. 25 tests pass. Next: the Settings + login-screen UI.
Pins the zero-impact guarantee: with require_login off (default), the launch PIN
still enforces exactly as before (the login deferral doesn't fire), and with both
off there's no gate at all (today's behavior).
The UI that makes opt-in login usable. Off by default → your LAN setup is unchanged
(none of this appears unless security.require_login is on).
- Login screen overlay (reuses the launch-PIN styling): username + password →
/api/auth/login → reload into the app. Shown when /api/profiles/current reports
login_required (checked before profile selection).
- POST /api/profiles/<id>/set-password (admin, or self) to set/clear a login
password, distinct from the PIN.
- Settings → Security: "Login password (admin account)" field + a "Require login"
toggle (with the anti-lockout note). Wired into the existing settings load/save.
- Sign-out button in the profile bar, revealed only in login mode (login_mode flag
on /api/profiles/current); soulsyncLogout() → /api/auth/logout → reload.
Tests: set-password sets/clears + verifies; /api/profiles/current signals
login_required. 20 login/password tests pass; 64 script-split integrity pass.
Remaining (small follow-up): a password field in the Manage Profiles edit form so
admins can set OTHER profiles' passwords from the UI (the endpoint already exists).
The backend auth for opt-in username/password mode (security.require_login, default
off → zero change; the launch PIN + picker behave exactly as today).
- core/security/login_gate.py: pure gate (mirrors launch_lock) — when login mode is
on, an unauthenticated session reaches only the page shell, /api/auth/login,
/api/auth/logout, /api/profiles/current, /api/setup/status, and the key-authed
/api/v1 API. Deliberately does NOT expose the profile list pre-auth (you type your
name, not pick from a roster).
- _enforce_login before_request enforces it; _enforce_launch_pin no-ops when login
mode is on (login replaces the shared PIN, per design).
- POST /api/auth/login (username = profile name, case-insensitive; brute-force
limited per IP; generic error so names don't leak) + POST /api/auth/logout.
- Anti-lockout: the settings save refuses to turn ON login mode until the admin
account has a password.
Tests: gate blocks→login→access→logout→blocked; case-insensitive username; wrong
password / passwordless profile / unknown user all 401 generically; login list not
exposed pre-auth; can't enable login without an admin password. 12 tests pass. Next:
the login screen + set-password UI + the toggle (increment 3).
