Add user accounts with first-run onboarding and per-user preferences

Replaces the optional shared-password auth (AUTH_PASSWORD env var,
in-memory sessions) with account-based auth: a users table (scrypt
password hashes via node:crypto — no native dep), SQLite-backed sessions
that survive restarts, a one-time setup screen that creates the first
account, and a Settings → Users card for adding/removing users and
resetting passwords (everyone equal, shared herd — no roles).

Theme and weight-unit become per-user preferences behind the unchanged
/api/settings shape (NULL inherits the global value); rabbitry name, kit
prefix, and default breed stay shared. Failed logins get a flat 350 ms
delay and timing-safe comparison. MYKINDLEBOX_PASSWORD is retired —
upgrading deployments see the setup screen once, data untouched.

Also: configurable host port (MYKINDLEBOX_PORT), compose healthcheck
gating nginx on API readiness, nginx body-size headroom for 10 MB
imports, server .dockerignore hardening, ESLint ignore for vendored
tesseract assets, react-hooks rule fixes, exact tesseract.js pin with SW
cache-upgrade contract and failure-isolated precache, and OCR date
parsing fixes (2-digit-year pivot, impossible-date rejection).

+# Feature: User Accounts & Onboarding
+
+Replaces the single shared-password auth (`AUTH_PASSWORD` env var, in-memory
+session Set) with real user accounts. Decided with the user on 2026-07-02.
+
+## Scope decisions (user-confirmed)
+
+| Question | Decision |
+|---|---|
+| Data scope | **Shared herd** — users are separate logins to the same rabbitry. No ownership columns on rabbits/litters/shows; nothing about the data model changes. |
+| Account creation | **In-app, no self-registration** — a fresh install shows a one-time "create your account" setup screen; after that, any signed-in user can add more users from Settings. No email/invite infrastructure. |
+| Roles | **Everyone equal** — no admin flag. Any user can manage users and settings. (Trust model: family/partners on a LAN.) |
+| Onboarding extras | **Per-user preferences only** — `theme` and `weight_unit` become per-user; `rabbitry_name`, `kit_prefix`, `default_breed` (and the internal `kit_counter`) stay global. No first-run settings wizard, no guided tour. |
+
+## Consequences to be aware of
+
+- **Auth becomes mandatory.** Today, unset `AUTH_PASSWORD` = open access. After
+  this feature, a fresh install requires creating an account, and every request
+  requires a session. The "no password = open" mode is retired.
+- **`MYKINDLEBOX_PASSWORD` / `AUTH_PASSWORD` is retired.** Removed from
+  docker-compose and the README. An existing deployment that upgrades sees the
+  setup screen on next visit (its `users` table is empty); herd data is
+  untouched. The old env var is simply ignored.
+- Because you must be signed in to delete a user and you **cannot delete
+  yourself**, the last account can never be deleted — no lockout state exists.
+
+## Data model
+
+```
+users:
+  id             integer PK autoincrement
+  username       text NOT NULL UNIQUE COLLATE NOCASE
+  password_hash  text NOT NULL        -- "scrypt:<salt hex>:<hash hex>"
+  theme          text                 -- NULL = inherit global settings value
+  weight_unit    text                 -- NULL = inherit global settings value
+  created_at     text NOT NULL default current_timestamp
+
+auth_sessions:
+  token       text PK                 -- randomUUID
+  user_id     integer NOT NULL FK -> users.id ON DELETE CASCADE
+  expires_at  text NOT NULL           -- ISO; 30 days from login
+  created_at  text NOT NULL default current_timestamp
+```
+
+Sessions move from the in-memory Set to SQLite so a server restart/redeploy no
+longer signs everyone out. Expired rows are deleted lazily whenever a session
+check touches them. Deleting a user cascades their sessions (they're signed out
+everywhere immediately).
+
+## Password hashing
+
+`node:crypto` `scryptSync` (N=16384 default params), 16-byte random salt,
+64-byte key, stored as `scrypt:<salt>:<hash>`; verified with `timingSafeEqual`.
+Deliberately **not** bcrypt/argon2 — no new native dependency, so the Alpine
+Docker build stays exactly as it is. Failed logins get a flat ~350 ms delay as
+cheap brute-force damping.
+
+## API
+
+- `GET  /api/auth/status` → `{ configured, authenticated, user? }` —
+  `configured` now means "at least one user exists". `user` = `{ id, username }`
+  when authenticated.
+- `POST /api/auth/setup` `{ username, password }` — creates the **first** user
+  and signs them in; 409 once any user exists. This is the onboarding endpoint.
+- `POST /api/auth/login` `{ username, password }` (username case-insensitive).
+- `POST /api/auth/logout` — deletes the session row.
+- `GET    /api/users` → `[{ id, username, created_at }]` (no hashes).
+- `POST   /api/users` `{ username, password }`.
+- `PATCH  /api/users/:id` `{ password }` — reset any user's password (everyone
+  equal; family trust model — also the "someone forgot theirs" path).
+- `DELETE /api/users/:id` — 400 when `id` is the caller.
+- **`/api/settings` keeps its exact shape**: GET merges the global rows with the
+  current user's non-NULL `theme`/`weight_unit` overrides; PATCH routes those two
+  keys to the user row and everything else to the settings table. Client
+  consumers (ThemeSync, useWeightUnit, Settings page) need no changes for prefs.
+
+## Client
+
+- `AuthProvider` gains a third gate: `configured: false` → `SetupScreen`
+  (create first account), else unauthenticated → `LoginScreen` (now
+  username + password), else app. Context exposes `{ user, logout }`.
+- Settings gets a **Users** card: list users, add user, reset password, delete
+  (self-delete disabled). The Account card shows who is signed in.
+- Password minimum: 8 chars, enforced on both setup and user creation.
+
+## Out of scope (deliberate)
+
+Roles/permissions, invite links, email anything, per-user data visibility,
+password-strength meters, 2FA, audit logs.

 - **Rabbit timeline = derived events + column-backed dates + a generic events table** (`RabbitTimeline.jsx`, post-Phase-11 feature): the per-rabbit timeline is built in `buildEvents()` by **merging** three sources, and which source a given event kind comes from is a deliberate design line — don't collapse them. (1) **Derived** (no storage): **birth** (`rabbit.dob`) and **breedings/kindles** (the `litters` where this rabbit is sire/dam — one "Bred with {partner}" event per `breed_date`, one "… kindled" event per `kindle_date`). Because breedings are auto-derived, the "Add Event" dropdown deliberately **omits Breeding** — logging one means creating a litter via the existing Add Breeding/Litter flow, not a manual timeline note (this was an explicit user decision). (2) **Column-backed**: **acquired** and **death** are nullable date columns on `rabbits` (`acquired_date` only renders when set *and* different from `dob`, since a same-day acquired date is just birth), edited through the normal rabbit `PATCH` (they're in `EditRabbit.jsx`'s `DETAIL_KEYS` and rendered by `RabbitDetailsForm.jsx`). (3) **Logged events**: the `rabbit_events` table (`routes/events.ts`) holds `show`/`sale`/`other` — the only kinds with their own CRUD UI, inline in the timeline card via the "Add Event" dropdown. **NOTE the history here**: this started as a `shows`-only table, then the user asked for a generic "Add Event" dropdown, so it was generalized to `rabbit_events` (migrations `0005_drop_shows` + `0006_add_rabbit_events` — drizzle-kit refused to auto-detect the rename non-interactively, so the table was dropped and recreated in two clean generates rather than one). A **sale** event also flips the rabbit's `status` to `sold` server-side (so the client invalidates `['rabbit']`/`['stats']` after one). Sorting is lexicographic on the ISO date string with `EVENT_TYPES[type].order` as the same-day tiebreaker (birth < acquired < breeding < kindle < show < sale < other < death).
 - **ARBA scraping (Shows feature)** — the show listing comes from scraping `https://arba.net/show-search/`, and two facts about that page are load-bearing; don't "simplify" them away (`lib/arba.ts`): (1) ARBA is behind **Cloudflare** — a bare request returns a "you have been blocked" challenge page, so the scraper sends browser `User-Agent` + `Accept` headers (and deliberately omits `Accept-Encoding` so undici/global-fetch negotiates + decompresses). (2) The data is a WordPress **Ninja Tables** table; its ~2,000 rows are server-rendered into the page HTML as **positional `<td>` cells** (cells have no column classes — read by index 0–10: sanction, date, state, district, city, showInformation, address, maps-`<a>`, secretary, email, catalog-`<a>`). It was tempting to hit the Ninja Tables `admin-ajax.php` data endpoint instead, but for this CSV-backed table that endpoint returns an empty array — the rows only exist in the rendered HTML. Normalization drops cavy shows and non-US rows and parses `showInformation` into club/type/breed by anchoring on the show-type phrase (club names contain commas). Results are cached in `arba_shows_cache` (one row) and only re-scraped when >24h stale or force-refreshed; this matches ARBA's Mon–Fri update cadence and keeps us light on their Cloudflare. **All four phases are built** (the Shows feature is feature-complete per `memory-bank/mykindlebox-shows-design-doc.md`): Phase 1 = browse + cache (`routes/shows.ts`, `Shows.jsx`); Phase 2 = show events + the "Add to Event" flow (`routes/showEvents.ts`, `ShowEvents.jsx`/`ShowEventDetail.jsx`/`AddToEventModal.jsx`); Phase 3 = entries + entries-report (`show_event_entries`, the entry/report endpoints, the Entries tab + `RabbitPicker.jsx`/`ReportModal.jsx`); Phase 4 = judges + placements + Results tab (`show_event_judges`/`show_event_placements`, the judge/placement endpoints, the `JudgesSection`/`PlacementEditor`/`ResultsTab` UI). Not built (explicitly out of scope or deferred): the design doc's optional **Report Settings** (custom header/footer, toggles), **bulk multi-select** "Add selected to Event" from the browser (single per-row add is implemented instead), and judge **editing** UI (the PATCH endpoint exists but the card only adds/removes). Note throughout that the doc's `user_id`/`users` table and `tattoo`/`variety` fields don't exist here — single-user, with `ear_number`/`color_name`/the `breed` column instead.
 - **OCR/Tesseract assets are vendored, not CDN-fetched, and the `eng.traineddata` is stored uncompressed** (OCR Pedigree Scanning feature, `public/tesseract/`): tesseract.js by default downloads its worker, WASM core, and language data from jsDelivr on first use — unacceptable for a self-hosted offline-first app, so all of it lives under `public/tesseract/` and the worker must be configured with explicit local paths. Two load-bearing facts when wiring up `ocrRun.js` (OCR Phase 3): (1) **`gzip: false` is required** alongside `langPath: '/tesseract/'`, because the vendored `eng.traineddata` is decompressed — the default `gzip: true` makes the worker request `eng.traineddata.gz`, which 404s. (2) **`corePath` should point at the directory `'/tesseract/'`, not a specific file**, so tesseract.js's `wasm-feature-detect` step picks the matching core (`relaxedsimd-lstm` → `simd-lstm` → `lstm`) for the running browser; all three `-lstm` `.wasm.js` cores are vendored for exactly this reason (the app uses the default `LSTM_ONLY` OEM, so the non-`-lstm`/`.asm` cores are never requested and aren't vendored). `workerPath` is `'/tesseract/worker.min.js'`. Don't re-point any of these at a CDN or "slim" the core set down to one file without re-checking the feature-detect branch in `tesseract.js/src/worker-script/browser/getCore.js`. The service worker precaches + cache-firsts these (see `public/sw.js` above).
+- **Auth is account-based and always on** (`FEATURE_User_Accounts.md`, replacing the original optional shared-password mode): accounts live in `users`, sessions in `auth_sessions` (so restarts don't sign anyone out), passwords are scrypt-hashed via `node:crypto` (**deliberately not bcrypt/argon2** — no native dependency, so the Alpine Docker build is unchanged). All users share the herd; everyone equal (no roles). The first account is created through `POST /api/auth/setup`, which only works while the `users` table is empty — the client's `AuthProvider` shows a `SetupScreen` when `GET /api/auth/status` reports `configured: false`. Any signed-in user manages users at `/api/users` (Settings → Users card); you can't delete yourself, which transitively protects the last account. **`/api/settings` kept its exact single-object shape** but storage split: `theme`/`weight_unit` read/write the caller's `users` row (NULL falls back to the global settings value), the rest stay in the `settings` table — client consumers (ThemeSync, `useWeightUnit`, the Settings page) required no changes. The old `AUTH_PASSWORD`/`MYKINDLEBOX_PASSWORD` env var is retired and ignored (a startup warning fires if it's still set); an upgrading deployment sees the setup screen once and keeps all data. Failed logins get a flat 350 ms delay as brute-force damping.
 - **Offline handling is one app-wide banner, not per-query state**: `Layout.jsx`'s `OfflineBanner` listens to the `online`/`offline` `window` events directly — it isn't wired to React Query's error state. This was a deliberate scope choice: every page already has its own `isError` fallback (so nothing crashes when a fetch fails offline), and threading a distinct "offline" message through every individual query would duplicate that existing handling for a cosmetic improvement only. If a future feature needs to distinguish "offline" from "other network error" *within* a specific page's content (not just a banner), that's new logic, not an extension of this banner.

   - **Quadrant split deviation (documented)**: the plan says split the grandparent column "at the horizontal and vertical midpoints of the column." Image *height* isn't carried through the pipeline, so `splitGrandparentQuadrants` instead takes the midpoints of the grandparent **words' own bounding extent** (min/max of their `x0/x1`, `y0/y1`) and assigns each word by its center — top-left→`sire_sire`, bottom-left→`sire_dam`, top-right→`dam_sire`, bottom-right→`dam_dam`, per the plan's mapping.

+- **Server**: `auth.ts` rewritten — `hashPassword`/`verifyPassword`
+  (`node:crypto` scrypt, `timingSafeEqual`; deliberately no bcrypt/argon2 native
+  dep), DB sessions with lazy expiry purge, `requireAuth` attaches
+  `req.user`. New `POST /api/auth/setup` (first account only — 409 after),
+  username+password login with a flat 350 ms failed-login delay, and
+  `routes/users.ts` (list/create/reset-password/delete; can't delete self;
+  password reset invalidates the target's other sessions). `/api/settings`
+  kept its exact shape but `theme`/`weight_unit` now read/write the caller's
+  user row (NULL inherits the global value) — zero client-consumer changes.
+- **Client**: `AuthProvider` gained a third gate (`configured: false` →
+  `SetupScreen`), the login screen takes username+password, context exposes

+  409 → per-user theme divergence with shared `rabbitry_name` → self-delete
