docs(audiobookshelf): the wide listener default is a decision, not a defect
The SSO paragraph left "whether an access policy should be bound to the audiobookshelf application" open, which invites the next agent to relitigate it. Frank's answer of 2026-11-03: accepted on purpose — every signer becomes a listener with all libraries and downloads, no access policy on the application, narrowing done per account in Settings -> Users. What that makes load-bearing is authentik's own signup flow, now named in the same paragraph as the thing that must stay operator-only.

The one thing still worth watching is authentik's own invitation/signup flow: it must

Both halves — authentik's provider row and ABS's settings — are asserted end to end by the Playwright gate named in *Verification*. `23-` signs in as `qa-e2e-admin` and must land inside the app with site-admin rights; `24-` signs in as the standard identity, which is in no Audiobookshelf group, and must land as a listener. Together they pin the escalation and the default: a mapping that stops granting silently locks the household out, and a mapping that over-grants turns the household into site admins.
