* fix(security): don't grant tool access in the pre-setup window
owner_is_admin_or_single_user() returned True whenever auth was not
configured, which conflated two very different states:
- intentional single-user mode (operator set AUTH_ENABLED=false), and
- the pre-setup window (auth enabled, but no admin created yet).
In the second state, blocked_tools_for_owner() returned an empty set, so
server-execution tools (bash/python) and other admin-only tools were
ungated. The auth middleware already 401s /api/ requests pre-setup, but a
caller that bypasses it (trusted loopback / internal-tool path) could reach
those tools before setup completed.
Treat "not configured" as admin only when auth is intentionally disabled
(AUTH_ENABLED=false), mirroring the AUTH_ENABLED parsing in app.py and
core.middleware. Single-user mode is preserved; the pre-setup window is now
non-admin as defense-in-depth.
Adds regression tests for both states.

* refactor(security): reuse _auth_disabled() instead of a duplicate helper
Addresses review on #3506: src/auth_helpers.py already has _auth_disabled()
with the identical AUTH_ENABLED parse. Drop the duplicate
_auth_intentionally_disabled() and call the existing helper via a lazy import
inside owner_is_admin_or_single_user (mirroring the lazy core.auth import) to
avoid any import cycle. Removes the now-unused `import os`. Behaviour and the
two regression tests are unchanged.

routes.email_helpers._decode_header joined the runs from
email.header.decode_header() with " ". Those runs carry their own
surrounding whitespace (e.g. (b"Re: ", None)), and RFC 2047 §6.2 requires
the whitespace between two adjacent encoded-words to be dropped, so the
join produced a double space after an ASCII prefix ("Re: Jóse"), a
spurious space in "Name <addr>" senders, and a stray space between two
adjacent encoded-words ("Café 日本"). _decode_header backs the inbox list,
message read, search, and the background pollers, so the corruption hit
essentially every non-ASCII subject/sender.
Use email.header.make_header(...) for RFC-correct concatenation, keeping
the existing lossy per-part fallback for malformed/unknown MIME charsets
(make_header raises LookupError there) so the unknown-charset contract in
tests/test_email_decode_header.py still holds.
The sibling mcp_servers.email_server._decode_header was already fixed the
same way (commit cfdeec4); this brings the routes.email_helpers copy in
line, with regression coverage.

_fallback_memory_candidates matched both positive (prefer/like/love) and
negative (hate / do not like / don't like) sentiment verbs in one regex
alternation, then formatted every hit as "User prefers {X}.". So
"I hate cilantro" was stored as "User prefers cilantro." -- the inverse of
what the user said. These fallback facts are persisted to memory and later
re-injected into the model's context, so the inverted preference actively
misleads the assistant.
Capture the matched verb and branch on it: negatives become
"User dislikes {X}.", positives stay "User prefers {X}." (still filed under
the existing "preference" category).

* fix: omit temperature for OpenAI reasoning models (o1/o3/o4/gpt-5)
These models only accept the default temperature; sending any explicit
value (even 0.0) returns HTTP 400 "Only the default (1) value is
supported". This broke two paths:
- Endpoint probing in _probe_single_model hardcodes temperature: 0.0, so
a perfectly valid o3/gpt-5 endpoint is reported as failing in the
Model Endpoints health check.
- Chat/stream payloads send temperature unconditionally, so a non-default
temperature preset 400s on these models.
The code already special-cases the same model family for
max_completion_tokens, so this adds a sibling _restricts_temperature()
helper and omits the field for those models, letting the API use its
required default. gpt-4.5 is intentionally excluded (not a reasoning
model; accepts temperature normally).
Adds tests/test_llm_core_temperature.py covering the predicate and the
synchronous payload builder.
* fix: also omit temperature for reasoning models on the direct-POST paths
The first commit only covered llm_call/llm_call_async/stream_llm and the
endpoint probe. Email auto-summary, urgency-less spam classification, the
email reply-summary endpoint, and gallery vision tagging build their
OpenAI payloads inline and POST them directly (requests/httpx), bypassing
llm_core — so a reasoning model configured there would still 400 on the
temperature field. These sites already branch on _uses_max_completion_tokens,
so they're the same class; added the matching _restricts_temperature guard.
gallery_routes also gains the max_completion_tokens branch it was missing,
so gpt-5 vision tagging works end to end.
Note: email_pollers urgency scoring goes through llm_call_async and was
already covered.
The 'add' action runs due_date through parse_due_for_user (natural
language like 'tomorrow at 9am', plus user-tz anchoring for naive ISO),
but 'update' stored the raw value verbatim. A reminder edited with
natural language was saved as an unparseable literal the frontend's
new Date() can't read, so it never fired. Route update's due_date
through the same parser as add.
asyncio.wait_for wrapped create_subprocess_exec, which returns as soon
as the child is spawned, so the timeout never bounded the actual work.
yt-dlp could hang indefinitely on proc.communicate() and the
except asyncio.TimeoutError branch was unreachable. Bind the wait to
communicate() and kill/reap the child if it overruns.
add_directory cleared exclusions with a raw path.startswith(directory)
test, which also matched sibling directories sharing a name prefix —
adding /docs would silently un-exclude files under /docs2. Match the
directory itself or paths under it (directory + os.sep) instead.
_process_pdf prepends "\n\n[PDF content]:" to extracted text, and two
call sites in document_routes.py stripped it with .lstrip("\n[PDF content]:").
str.lstrip(chars) treats its argument as a *set of characters*, so it keeps
eating into the page text that follows the marker — e.g. a body starting
with "to the board" loses its leading "to" because 't'/'o' are in the
marker's character set. Replace both sites with a shared
strip_pdf_content_marker() helper that uses str.removeprefix.
Deep Research surfaced 'Error: unknown error' whenever every search
provider returned an empty result set without raising (e.g. SearXNG is
reachable but all its engines fail internally). _last_search_error was
only set on exceptions, so the empty-but-no-exception path left it unset
and the caller fell back to 'unknown error'.
Record an actionable reason on that path naming the providers that were
tried, so users can tell it's a search-backend problem rather than a
model problem. The provider-raised path is unchanged.

KNOWN_CONTEXT_WINDOWS lists 'o1' (200k) before 'o1-mini' (128k), and
_lookup_known returned on the first substring hit — so "o1-mini" matched
'o1' and reported 200000 instead of 128000. Track the longest matching
key instead, so the most specific entry wins regardless of table order.
`core.middleware.require_admin` grants admin to any request whose
`request.state.current_user == "internal-tool"` — the sentinel meant only
for the in-process tool-loopback path. But the normal cookie auth path
(app.py) sets `current_user` to the raw username, and neither `create_user`
nor the signup route reserved that name. As a result an account literally
named "internal-tool" was silently treated as admin by every
`require_admin`-gated route. With self-service signup enabled this is an
anonymous -> admin privilege escalation.
Reserve the full synthetic-owner set the codebase already special-cases —
"internal-tool", "api", "demo", "system" (see `_SYNTHETIC_OWNERS` in
routes/assistant_routes.py and the matching guards in src/task_scheduler.py
and routes/research_routes.py). "api" collides with the bearer-token owner
sentinel; "demo"/"system" would leave a real account denied an assistant
and inconsistently owner-scoped.
Refuse to create or rename into any reserved name (case/space-normalized),
and reject empty usernames while we're here. Adds a regression test.

`mdToHtml` deliberately stashes literal <details> blocks and <a> tags from
the source text *before* the global HTML-escape pass and restores them
verbatim into the string callers assign to `innerHTML` (e.g. chatRenderer's
`b.innerHTML = ...processWithThinking(text)`). Nothing scrubbed those
fragments, so message/agent content containing
`<details><img src=x onerror=...></details>` or
`<a href="javascript:..." onmouseover=...>` executed arbitrary script in
the authenticated page.
Route both stashed fragments through `sanitizeAllowedHtml()`, which parses
them in an inert <template> (no resource loads, no script execution),
removes script-capable elements, and strips event-handler attributes plus
javascript:/vbscript:/data: URL schemes. Hardening details:
- Compare tag names case-insensitively and drop the SVG/MathML foreign-
content roots. An SVG-namespaced <script> has the lower-case tagName
'script', so an HTML-only upper-case check would miss it — a real bypass.
- Sanitize to a fixpoint (re-parse + re-clean until stable) to blunt
mutation-XSS, where re-serializing/re-parsing reshapes the tree.
Benign anchors and <details> blocks are preserved unchanged.
Verified under jsdom against the obvious vectors plus mutation-XSS probes
(svg/math-namespaced <script>, foreignObject, ns-confusion, comment
breakout, template smuggling): no script/iframe element, event handler, or
javascript:/data: URL survives, and benign markup is kept.

The synchronous llm_call() runs in FastAPI's threadpool (sync route
handlers such as POST /sessions/auto-sort), while llm_call_async() runs
on the event loop. Both mutate the module-level _response_cache,
_host_fails and _dead_hosts dicts, so these are touched from multiple OS
threads concurrently. Two races result:
- _set_cached_response() snapshots 64 keys then deletes them with
`del _response_cache[key]`; if another thread evicts the same key
first, the del raises KeyError mid-eviction. Switched to
pop(key, None).
- _mark_host_dead() does get()+1+set() on _host_fails with no lock, so
concurrent connect failures lose increments and a genuinely dead host
can stay under its cooldown threshold. Guarded the host-health maps
with a threading.Lock (also applied to _is_host_dead / _clear_host_dead
for consistent reads).
Adds tests/test_llm_core_concurrency.py with deterministic regression
tests (phantom snapshot key for the eviction race; a slow-read dict that
forces the lost-update window for the counter). Both fail on the
unpatched code and pass with the fix.
The email reader folds quoted history into <details> summaries via
`_foldSummary()` (static/js/emailLibrary/signatureFold.js), which builds a
sender/date "meta" chip into the summary HTML and assigns it to innerHTML.
The server-side thread parser (`_extract_quote_meta`,
src/email_thread_parser.py) strips tags but then un-escapes HTML entities
and preserves `<...>` patterns, and that raw meta reaches `_foldSummary`
unescaped via `_renderTurnsFromServer` (`t.meta`) — so an inbound email
whose quoted attribution contains `From: <img src=x onerror=...>`
runs script when the victim merely opens the message (stored XSS).
Make `_foldSummary` the single escaping chokepoint: escape `primary` and
`subMeta` with the module's existing `_esc`. The client-side
`_extractQuoteMeta` previously pre-escaped its output, and every consumer
of it routes through `_foldSummary`, so drop that now-redundant escaping to
avoid double-encoding (e.g. "Ben & Jerry" -> "Ben &amp; Jerry").
Verified (jsdom): server-raw and client-extracted malicious metas yield 0
live elements and 0 event-handler attributes; benign "Ben & Jerry" renders
single-escaped.
