The opt-in multi-user feature's only enforcement is web-layer scoping
(all sessions share one OS account). An adversarial review found 8 critical
+ 7 high cross-user holes that defeated it, plus mediums; all fixed here.
Single-user (flag-off) behavior stays byte-identical apart from documented
consistency deltas.
Ownership / confinement:
- DELETE /api/sessions (bulk) + /:id now owner-scope / findSessionOrFail
- quick-start, cron (create+fire), scheduled runs confine workingDir to the
owner's space; case link/docker-link/docker-import confine the host path
- resolveCasePath no longer resolves linked cases for non-admins; foreign
remote/docker cases are skipped (fall through to the caller's own local case)
- history, subagents/workflows, mux-sessions, orchestrator, cron run-history,
away-digest, and remote/docker host reads are owner- or admin-scoped
Permission policy (section 6.3):
- non-granted users are downgraded at every spawn site incl. legacy
/api/scheduled, PlanOrchestrator one-shots, remote launch, and the cron-fire
gemini/codex bypass switches; resolveClaudeModeForUsername now fails closed
Auth / store:
- verify-first login throttle (a correct password is never locked out),
/ws terminal subject to the change-password lockbox, cookie fast-path
re-validates identity live, role/grant changes revoke sessions, admin delete
runs the last-admin guard before any teardown
- users.json: distinguish missing (ENOENT) from corrupt/unreadable so a bad
read can't overwrite all accounts; unique per-process temp write path
Event streams:
- debounced session:updated + batched task:updated, clipboard, and push
notifications route by owner (fail closed); getLightState hides machine-wide
globalStats from non-admins
Tests: two suites updated to assert the fixed (secure) behavior. tsc, eslint,
and test:ci all green.

Stamp the plan doc with shipped-by-phase status; add the multi-user Key Patterns
entry + State Files + case-spaces note to CLAUDE.md; add a multi-user section to
the security architecture (threat model: workspace separation, not a security
boundary) and a README opt-in section; add a minor changeset.

Release 1.3.5. Consumes the changeset from PR #155: re-issue the
codeman_session cookie on every authenticated request so the browser cookie
lifetime tracks the server-side sliding TTL, fixing the recurring native Basic
Auth dialog during active use.

The codeman_session cookie was only set on the Basic Auth path with a fixed
lifetime from login and never refreshed, while the server-side session store
slides its TTL (refreshOnGet). So the browser cookie expired mid-use, the next
request arrived cookie-less and fell through to Basic Auth, popping the native
username/password dialog — perceived as a random logout while actively working.
Re-issue the cookie on every authenticated (valid-cookie) request so the browser
lifetime tracks the server-side sliding TTL.
