agent: repoint FLM-NPU model roles off the retired provider; sync memory/skills

config.yml: vision -> llamacpp (dankclaw)/frank-large:auto, tiny -> llamacpp (dankserver)/frank-small:off, task -> llamacpp (dankclaw)/frank-large:medium (was flm dankclaw-npu), matching the flm (dankclaw-npu) provider removal in models.yml. Memories/managed skills: rollouts and learned notes from the frank-large KV-pool + sampler work and the noctalia recolor; merged the duplicate noctalia-palette-recolor skill into noctalia-custom-palette-recolor (adds the dotfiles-tracking step and the +show-config delta gotcha) and dropped the superseded legacy memory skills whose ghostty USR1 reload recipe is wrong for this fleet.

-# Consolidated Memory
+## System & Desktop Environment
+- **Noctalia (Niri) DE**: Bin `/usr/bin/noctalia`. Configs: `~/.config/noctalia/config.toml`, `noctalia.kdl`. IPC: `noctalia msg <cmd>` (replaces `qs -c noctalia-shell ipc`). Key cmds: `panel-toggle`, `session`, `lock`, `launcher`. App templates: `/usr/share/noctalia/assets/templates/`. Palette gen: `noctalia theme [image]`. GTK accent: `#b267e4`.
+- **Fonts & AA**: Ghostty (`font-subpixel-render=off`), Alacritty (`font.antialias=false`). Ghostty fix: replace `font-hinting = hinting` with `freetype-load-flags = hinting,light` (line 10).
+- **Frank Desktop**: Cursor size 36 (`gsettings`, `settings.ini`, `XCURSOR_SIZE=36`). Theme: `capitaine-cursors`.
+- **Authenik (2026.8)**: Outpost caches claims per session (1-24h TTL). Pitfall: silent 403s post-group-add despite correct membership.

-## OMP Harness & Server App Config
- **Location**: `~/.omp` (config/dotfiles), `~/Projects/serverAppConfig` (cloned).
- **Repository Details**: Remote repo `serverAppConfigs` (plural), local dir `serverAppConfig` (singular). Head `701ab14` on `main` (tracks `origin/main`). HTTP transport with embedded dank token, no SSH keys.
- **Structure** (308 files, 4.2 MB):
-  - `dankclaw/`: Dankclaw stack definitions.
-  - `dankserver/`: Inference backend config.
-  - `frankbook-pro/`: 7 quadlet units (sonarr, radarr, lidarr, readarr, prowlarr, qbittorrent, gluetun).
-  - `shared/`: Homepage (html/css/js + services.json), alloy, loki, prometheus, searxng.
-  - `tests/`: 47 files, E2E suite.
-  - `serverAppConfigs-docs/`: 115 files, Architecture KB (deployment flow, network/storage/testing policy, container netns, Dankclaw service pages).
-  - `old/`, `report/`, `scripts/`, `.githooks/`, `AGENTS.md`: Legacy, reports, tooling, hooks.
- **Recent Commits**: Observability quadlet cutover (loki/alloy/comfyui images, grafana OAuth secret per-service env seeding, docs commit recording exposure posture + unconfigured state).
+## Inference & Runtime
+- **Frank-Large**: Sampler defaults overridden from halogen/greedy: `temp=1.0, top_p=0.95, top_k=20, min_p=0.0, presence_penalty=0.0, repetition_penalty=1.0`. Added `preserve_thinking=true` (retains thinking blocks across turns). Config: `agent/models.yml`. Deployed to `dank/command-center` (dankclaw). Live effect on next config read (no restart).
+- **Frank-Small**: Uses checkpoint's fixed Qwen3.6 template. `deploy-plan.py` mapping is vestigial.
+- **Halogen Runtime**: Baked-in chat template (no file swap). Accepts `chat_template_kwargs`: `enable_thinking`, `preserve_thinking`, `reasoning_effort`.
+- **FLM NPU (Dankclaw)**: `gemma4-it:e4b` on port 7771. FIFO queue (~7-11s switch). Supports PNG/JPEG; rejects WebP (convert first). Requires `thinkingLevelMap` in `models.json`. Pitfall: missing `.xclbin` symlinks under `~/.config/flm/xclbins/`.

-## Dotfiles & Git Workflow
- **State Inspection**: `git status --short | git branch --show-current | git log --oneline HEAD..@{u}`. Untracked dirs: `.pre-pull-backup/`, `home/`.
- **Modified Configs**: `alacritty.toml`, `config.ghostty`, `noctalia.css` (gtk3/4), niri `.kdl` files. Shift to noctalia theme.
- **Ghostty Fix**: Replace `font-hinting = hinting` with `freetype-load-flags = hinting,light` (line 10).
- **Commit/Push Pattern**: `git add <file> && git commit -m "<msg>" && git push`. Mitigate LFS lock warnings via `git config lfs.http://<repo>/info/lfs.locksverify true`.
- **Process Reload**: Ghostty reload via USR1: `pgrep ghostty | while read pid; do /usr/bin/kill -USR1 "$pid"; done`.
+## Configuration & Repository
+- **OMP Harness**: Repo at `~/.omp`. Cloned `serverAppConfig` to `~/Projects/serverAppConfig` (local singular vs remote plural `serverAppConfigs`). HTTP transport with embedded dank token (no SSH keys). HEAD: 701ab14 (main tracks origin/main).
+- **Structure**: 308 files, 4.2 MB. Includes `dankclaw/`, `dankserver/`, `frankbook-pro/` (7 quadlets), `shared/` (Homepage, alloy, loki, prometheus, searxng), `tests/` (47 E2E), `serverAppConfigs-docs/` (115). Legacy: `old/`, `report/`, `scripts/`, `.githooks/`, `AGENTS.md`.
+- **Recent**: Observability quadlet cutover (loki/alloy/comfyui images, grafana OAuth secret per-service env seeding).
+- **Git Workflow**: Branch `main`. Untracked: `.pre-pull-backup/`, `home/`. LFS locking notice is advisory. Mitigate via `git config lfs.http://<repo>/info/lfs.locksverify true`. Pattern: `git add <file> && git commit -m "<msg>" && git push`.

-## Handy Application Lifecycle
- **Binary**: `/usr/bin/handy`.
- **Kill**: `pkill -f handy`.
- **Start**: `hub op=start, application=/usr/bin/handy, pty=true, persist=true, ready={log:'.*', timeout:10}`.
- **Status**: Persistent daemon running. 69 catalog models seeded.
-
-## Device & Input Permissions
- **Issue**: `Platform error: permission denied opening 16 device node(s) under /dev/input` causing keyboard listener failure.
- **Diagnosis**: `/dev/input/*` owned by `root:input` with `crw-rw----` (660). User `blank` was missing the `input` group.
- **Resolution**: `sudo usermod -aG input blank`.
- **Pitfalls**: 
-  1. `usermod` without `sudo` fails to lock `/etc/passwd`.
-  2. `sudo` password entry in CLI environment requires PTY for reliable input.
+## Operations & Services

+- Frank's frank-large ceiling is now 200,000 context in ~/.omp/agent/models.yml (provider llamacpp (dankclaw), committed 60dc0bb to dank/command-center 2026-09-13), while halogen on 192.168.0.143:7770 still serves context=262144 — a deliberate under-serve, not drift. Convention when changing any contextWindow there: read the served value from curl baseUrl/health (it reports context, model, vision.enabled) and check KV-pool admission before/after — admission reserves prompt + max_tokens against the pool (401,408 positions since 2026-09-13), so contextWindow + maxTokens must stay under it or the request hangs the full 3600 s queue timeout before a 503. maxTokens stays pinned at 65536 because HALOGEN_MAX_TOKENS_CAP 400s anything larger. Also: OMP reads models.yml only at startup, so a running session keeps the old ceiling; tell the user new omp invocations pick up the change.
+- Frank's terminal font stack on Dankware: package ttf-terminus-nerd (Arch, group nerd-fonts), which provides the TERMINESS outline derivative — families "Terminess Nerd Font" / " Mono" / " Propo". The bitmap original terminus-font is NOT installed, so classic-Terminus crispness depends entirely on 1-bit hinted rendering. Crisp/bitmap look = freetype-load-flags = hinting,monochrome (monochrome = 1-bit, disables AA; the light flag stays in the resolved value but is inert once monochrome is on, per ghostty.5.md). Sizing rule that matters: pixel cell = pt × (96/72) × monitor_scale, and the crisp sweet spot is when that lands on Terminus' native bitmap heights (8x16, 9x18, 10x20, 11x22, 12x24). On Frank's eDP-1 (1920x1080 @ scale 1.25) font-size 12 → 20px → exactly the 10x20 grid; 14pt → 23.3px, fractional and blurry regardless of flags. Check scale with niri msg outputs. Also: ghostty +show-config prints only values differing from default, and Ghostty's default font-size IS 12 — so a 12pt setting vanishes from the diff output; confirm against +show-config --default before concluding the key was ignored.
+- NEVER send SIGUSR1 to ghostty on Frank's workstations — it does not reload the config, it kills/respawns the terminal (observed 2026-09-13: PID churn, Frank said "stop killing the terminal"). The old recipe in agent/memories/--home-blank-.omp--/MEMORY.md and skills/dotfiles_git/scripts/reload_ghostty.sh ("pgrep ghostty | while read pid; do kill -USR1 $pid; done") is WRONG for ghostty 1.3.1. Correct way to apply a changed ghostty theme/config without losing shells: press the default keybind ctrl+shift+, (action reload_config) in each window — confirmed as the default in ghostty +show-config --default. For applying theme changes desktop-wide without touching terminals: noctalia msg templates-apply regenerates rendered theme files, and niri msg action load-config-file reloads the compositor (reload-config is NOT a valid niri subcommand). Custom noctalia palettes live at ~/.config/noctalia/palettes/Name.json and are selected with noctalia msg color-scheme-set custom "Name"; that source is immune to the community-palette catalog/md5 sync, unlike editing the cache in ~/.local/state/noctalia/community-palettes/. Also: noctalia msg screenshot-fullscreen saves to ~/Pictures (no need to scrape the PNG out of the clipboard with wl-paste).
+- In OMP's ~/.omp/agent/models.yml there are NO per-model sampler keys. Sampling params (temperature, topP, topK, minP, presencePenalty, repetitionPenalty) are GLOBAL settings in config.yml, each defaulting to -1 = "do not send". The only per-model hook is compat.extraBody — a Recordstring, unknown of extra top-level fields merged into every request body. It is applied LAST in the openai-completions builder (applyOpenAIExtraBody runs after applyChatCompletionsCompatPolicy, via Object.assign), so extraBody wins over anything the compat policy or global settings set. Use wire names (top_p, top_k, min_p, presence_penalty, repetition_penalty), not OMP's camelCase setting names. Two traps that cost real debugging time: 1. preserve_thinking is NOT user-settable in models.yml. qwenPreserveThinking is auto-derived inside buildOpenAICompat from the AUTO-DETECTED thinkingFormat plus a local (loopback/RFC1918) baseUrl — and that derivation happens BEFORE applyCompatOverrides. So writing compat.thinkingFormat: qwen in models.yml does NOT turn on preserve_thinking. For a custom-named model (e.g. frank-large, which matches no Qwen id pattern) the only path is extraBody: { preserve_thinking: true }. 2. NEVER put chat_template_kwargs inside extraBody. Object.assign is shallow, so it replaces the whole chat_template_kwargs object and silently drops the reasoning_effort kwarg the compat policy already put there. Top-level preserve_thinking is honoured by halogen-flash-server (its own 400 message says the field "may also be sent as top-level fields"), so top-level is both sufficient and safe. Why it mattered: halogen-flash-server has no server-side sampler defaults — temperature absent or 0 is greedy decode. OMP sent nothing (global -1), so the endpoint was decoding greedy while appearing configured. _(context: Verified 2026-09-13 on the Dank fleet while pinning Qwen3.8-Flash-Next recommended sampling (temp 1.0 / top_p 0.95 / top_k 20 / min_p 0.0 / presence_penalty 0.0 / repetition_penalty 1.0) plus preserve_thinking onto frank-large. Ground truth read from the installed bundle: pi-ai/src/providers/openai-completions.ts (applyOpenAIExtraBody applied last), pi-ai/src/providers/openai-shared.ts (applyChatC)_
 - Frank's Gitea lives on Dankclaw at http://192.168.0.143:3000, single org/user dank. Repo inventory (verified 2026-09-12 via /api/v1/user/repos): agent (default master), command-center (main — this is the ~/.omp dotfiles/KB repo), frank-llm-bench (main), serverAppConfigs (main), vllmScripts (main). LESSON — never clone from a repo name Frank states verbally; resolve the exact full_name via the Gitea API first. He said "serverAppConfig"; the real repo is serverAppConfigs (plural). Cloning the guessed name would 404 with no useful signal. Working procedure: read the dank HTTP token from the existing origin URL in ~/.omp (git remote -v) — do NOT copy that token into memory, docs, or skills; reference its location only. Then GET /api/v1/user/repos and match on the real name/case/plurality before cloning. Local-vs-remote naming: the clone was placed at ~/Projects/serverAppConfig (singular, as Frank explicitly requested) while origin points at the plural repo. The path mismatch is intentional, not drift — pull/push work normally. Repo layout: dankclaw/, dankserver/, frankbook-pro/ (7 quadlet units: sonarr, radarr, lidarr, readarr, prowlarr, qbittorrent, gluetun), shared/ (homepage, alloy, loki, prometheus, searxng), tests/ (47-file E2E suite), serverAppConfigs-docs/ (115-file KB — read its index.md before touching the stack). _(context: Frank asked to "pull my serverAppConfig repository into ~/Projects/serverAppConfig"; Gitea API revealed the plural name. Credential handling: token reused from existing ~/.omp remote, deliberately not persisted here.)_
 - Ghostty 1.3.1 (and the 1.3.x line) has NO font-hinting and NO font-subpixel-render config key. The only font-smoothing key is freetype-load-flags, a comma-separated list: hinting, force-autohint, monochrome, autohint, light (each default-enabled except monochrome/force-autohint; prefix no- to disable). Ground truth: /usr/share/ghostty/doc/ghostty.5.md:598-628. To actually DISABLE anti-aliasing you need freetype-load-flags = hinting,monochrome (docs line 617: monochrome = 1-bit rendering, disables AA). Note hinting,light is a NO-OP — both are already Ghostty defaults. Verification workflow before editing any ghostty key: ghostty +validate-config (exit 0 = valid) plus grep the manpage for the key name; an unknown key silently does nothing useful and +validate-config is the authoritative gate. This matters because a poisoned memory claim about font-subpixel-render/font-hinting caused 3 wasted commits (4c84f02, df33310, 268dcbd) editing a nonexistent key on 2026-09-11. _(context: Verified 2026-09-12 against ghostty 1.3.1-arch2.2 manpage and ghostty +validate-config on Dankware. Corrects contradictory entries in agent/memories/--home-blank-.omp--/learned.md (line 2 asserts font-subpixel-render is the key; it is not).)_
 - Ghostty's font antialiasing is controlled by font-hinting = no-hinting in the config file, not font-subpixel-render = off as the Noctalia reference skill states. When editing ghostty config, check /usr/share/ghostty/doc/ghostty.5.md or src/config/Config.zig — ghostty's --help confirms this. Invalid field causes font-subpixel-render: unknown field on restart. _(context: Discovered when user reported "font-subpixel-render: unknown field" after my initial edit to ghostty config)_

-SERVICE: frank-large (rootless Quadlet, boot-persistent) on dankclaw.
-Unit: frank-large.service | Container: frank-large.
+# dankclaw Deployment & Model Services

-PORTS: Engine :8730 (container loopback, unauth), Front-end :8731, Published :7770.
+## frank-large (Quadlet Service)
+Deployed as a rootless Quadlet service (`frank-large.service`) on dankclaw. Hosts ~68 GiB weights and a 524,288-position KV pool (~14.4 GiB). HALOGEN_KV_SLOTS reduced to 3, stabilizing total memory at ~103.4 GiB within the 121 GiB budget. Admission is pool-bound, capping at 3 simultaneous full-length requests.

-CONSTRAINTS: Weights pinned (~68 GiB). Env vars to avoid naming: TEMP, HOST, GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE (HIP runtime reads bare TEMP for JIT cache path).
+### Ports & Logging
+- Engine: :8730 (loopback), Front-end: :8731, Published: :7770
+- Logging: `podman logs frank-large` (full/filtered), `journalctl --user -u frank-large`
+- Env Vars: Avoid `TEMP`, `HOST`, `GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE` (HIP runtime reads bare `TEMP`).

-TEST_ENV: pyyaml missing for test suite (uv available, pip missing on system python3). Most suite failures are pre-existing environment issues, not commit regressions.
+### Sampling & API Quirks
+- `frank-large` defaults to greedy; `frank-small` defaults to sampling (temp=1.0, top_k=20, top_p=0.95). Force small determinism via `temperature: 0` or `--sampling-defaults none`.
+- `preserve_thinking` is per-request (client-side `chat_template_kwargs`), not controlled by HALOGEN_* env vars.
+- `max_tokens: 200` with empty content indicates thinking consumed budget. frank-small returns 200 for unknown fields. File-cache shortage causes uninterruptible sleep, not OOM. `host_reserve_gib=24` protects n-gram table.
+- Tests: 285/286 pass (test 73 pre-existing comfyui selector bug). `pyyaml` missing on system python3; `uv` available.

-LOG_RETRIEVAL: podman logs frank-large (full); podman logs frank-large 2>&1 | grep -E '^(dmalloc|kv pool):' (filtered); journalctl --user -u frank-large (journald).
+## Marreta & Authentik Guard Chain
+Deployed via podman compose, sharing gluetun egress with searxng. Caddy TLS edge routes through Anubis (:8923) → Authentik outpost → internal :8017 → marreta upstream.
+- Auth Flow: Provider-first creation → route flip (vhost `reverse_proxy anubis:8923`) → deploy.

+- frank-large (halogen-flash-server, Dankclaw) pool history and post-restart behavior, measured 2026-09-13: pool trimmed 524288 → 401408 (deployed, repo commits 91406af + 27e6335) to restore co-tenant headroom. Measured boot ledger at 401408/MAX_TOK=32768/reserve 15: 68.0 weights + 11.0 KV + 21.0 working = 100.0 GiB held, host left 9.1 GiB / 1396 contiguous 2 MiB blocks (vs 7.1 / 310 at 524288), engine printed need ~31.5 GiB vs modelled ~33.4, and the co-tenant stall NOTE no longer prints (threshold is somewhere below 9.1 GiB / 1396 blocks). TWO new facts: (1) On the FIRST request after any (re)start the engine can go silent ~45-60 s — /health flips to engine_unresponsive "no PONG within 30s" and the front-end 503s, then self-recovers. Do not restart the unit over it; the quadlet HealthStartPeriod=300s covers it. First completion attempt timed out during this window; a retry 20 s later returned instantly. (2) Host-left gain (+2.0 GiB) came in below the modelled +3.4 because the engine holds freed KV space as working slack (working 21.0 at 401k vs 20.6-ish at 524k with arena). The omp models.yml on blankpad (/home/blank/.omp/agent/models.yml) had frank-large maxTokens: 262144 — above halogen's 65536 cap and a 503-queue hazard after the pool cut; fixed to 65536, and the stale flm (dankclaw-npu) provider + its modelRoles (vision/tiny/task) were removed per the AGENTS.md route map (vision→frank-large, tiny→frank-small, task→frank-large:medium). _(context: frank-large KV pool trim to 401408 on Dankclaw, 2026-09-13, followed by OMP models.yml/config.yml cleanup on blankpad.)_
 - Dankclaw host swap (as of 2026-09-12): 64 GiB file at /swap.img, ext4 on /dev/nvme0n1p2, fallocated hole-free, driven by /etc/fstab line 12 (/swap.img none swap sw 0 0) which generates the swap.img.swap systemd unit — fstab is the only control point, there is no hand-written unit and no repo file, so deploy.sh cannot see swap state. vm.swappiness=60 (distro default, UNTESTED against this workload), zswap disabled. Raised from 8 GiB; 748 GiB still free on /. The old 8.1 GiB file is staged at dankclaw:~/.AGENTTRASH/20260912-swapfile-8g/swap.img awaiting Frank's approval to purge. Important framing: swap on this host protects the ~28 co-tenant containers, NOT frank-large — its ~68 GiB of pinned weights are not relieved by swap, and paging the KV pool (which IS anonymous) would be worse than the OOM kill it prevents, so if the box thrashes the knob is lower swappiness or a cgroup cap, not more swap. _(context: Raised swap on Dankclaw 2026-09-12 after the frank-large reserve-15 config left only ~7.1 GiB for co-tenants. Documented in serverAppConfigs-docs/Dankclaw/Swap Configuration.md and AGENTS.md memory-model section.)_
 - In the serverAppConfig repo, ./tests/run.sh exits 1 on a **clean tree** because of one pre-existing failure: tests/comfyui_rocm.bats test 73 "comfyui Containerfile is based on the gfx1151 torch image". It is a test-side selector bug, not a product regression — its find ... | head -1 picks dankclaw/alloy/Containerfile instead of the ComfyUI one, so the assertion reads the wrong file. Verify before blaming your own change: a good run reports 285 ok plus this single not ok 73. Confirmed present at HEAD across several sessions (2026-09-12 frank-large work), independent of frank-large/Caddy/quadlet edits. Do NOT treat a green deploy as blocked by it, and do NOT "fix" it by weakening the assertion — the correct fix is to target the actual ComfyUI Containerfile path. Note deploy.sh gates on its own per-service health plus the Playwright e2e suite, not on tests/run.sh, so this failure does not block deploys. _(context: Every ./tests/run.sh run during the 2026-09-12 frank-large KV-pool/reserve work returned exit=1 with exactly not ok 73 comfyui Containerfile is based on the gfx1151 torch image while 285 tests passed, including on commits where nothing ComfyUI-related changed.)_
 - Frank resolves contested tuning calls by **running the experiment**, not by reading the argument. On 2026-09-12 he overruled documentation-based pushback twice in a row with "lets just try it". Working with this, rather than against it: when he pushes back on a knob, state the prediction numerically up front, then run it and report measured vs predicted — he engages with that and it twice produced a better model than the docs (the arena linearity, and the vision-tower term). Corollaries: (1) get the rollback staged and named BEFORE the risky deploy, because the experiment may take production down — the 65536 trial OOMed frank-large for ~2 minutes; (2) use deploy.sh --skip-e2e for risky single-service experiments so the 4-minute e2e gate is not sitting on top of an outage; (3) after a failure, git revert sha + redeploy restores in ~10s, because the weights are already page-cached. Also learned the hard way: when a config experiment ends in a state that quietly reverses the user's original request (32768 + KV_POOL_FIT clamp meant the pool stayed 262144, i.e. the doubling never happened), say so plainly — do not let a green health check imply the goal was met. Separately, on log forensics: journalctl --user -u frank-large.service did NOT reach back to the 2026-09-11 boot even when asked with --since 2026-09-11 (rootless user journal retention is short). To compare against a container's ORIGINAL startup ledger, capture podman logs BEFORE the first deploy of the session — that is the only reliable copy of pre-change boot state. _(context: frank-large KV-pool doubling work on 2026-09-12: Frank overruled doc-based pushback twice ("let's just try it") — once raising HALOGEN_MAX_TOK to 65536 (OOMed the production service for ~2 min) and once back to 32768, which quietly un-did the doubling he had originally asked for. Also: journalctl --user retention for frank-large.service did not cover the 2026-09-11 boot even when queried with --si)_

+Expanded frank-large KV pool from 262144 to 524288 positions (~14.4 GiB). Reduced HALOGEN_KV_SLOTS from 4 to 3 (~111 MiB freed per slot). Held memory stable at 103.4 GiB (68 weights + 14.4 KV pool + 21 working) within 121 GiB host budget. Admission is pool-bound, not slot-bound; caps at 3 simultaneous full-length requests.
+
+frank-small defaults to sampling (checkpoint values: do_sample=true, temperature=1.0, top_k=20, top_p=0.95), creating asymmetry with frank-large which defaults to greedy. To force determinism on frank-small: send temperature: 0 per request or relaunch with --sampling-defaults none.
+
+preserve_thinking cannot be set server-side. Enumerated 156 HALOGEN_* env vars; none control thinking/preserve. Must be sent per-request in chat_template_kwargs by the client.
+
+API/Host quirks: frank-small returns 200 for unknown fields (200 proves nothing). max_tokens: 200 with empty content indicates thinking consumed budget. host_reserve_gib=24 protects n-gram table; file-cache shortage causes uninterruptible sleep, not OOM.

+Auth Chain Workflow: Provider-first creation -> Route flip (vhost becomes reverse_proxy anubis:8923, internal @svc handler) -> Deploy. Verified via unauthenticated challenge probe, post-auth config grep, outpost DNS reachability.
+
+Resolved Failure: Marreta login-wall due to ProxyProvider.application = None on marreta-proxy. Null invalidation_flow crashed Rust outpost serde. Null auth/authz flows compounded issue.
