- Normalize line endings from CRLF to LF across all files to match .editorconfig
- Standardize quote style from single quotes to double quotes
- Normalize whitespace and formatting throughout codebase
- Apply consistent code style across 372 files including:
* Application code (models, routes, services, utils)
* Test files
* Configuration files
* CI/CD workflows
This ensures consistency with the project's .editorconfig settings and
improves code maintainability.
Implement a configuration management system where settings changed via
WebUI take priority over .env values, while .env values are used as initial
startup values.
Changes:
- Update ConfigManager.get_setting() to check Settings model first, then
environment variables, ensuring WebUI changes have highest priority
- Add Settings._initialize_from_env() method to initialize new Settings
instances from .env file values on first creation
- Update Settings.get_settings() to automatically initialize from .env
when creating a new Settings instance
- Add Settings initialization in create_app() to ensure .env values are
loaded on application startup
- Add comprehensive test suite (test_config_priority.py) covering:
* Settings priority over environment variables
* .env values used as initial startup values
* WebUI changes persisting and taking priority
* Proper type handling for different setting types
This ensures that:
1. .env file values are used as initial configuration on first startup
2. Settings changed via WebUI are saved to database and take priority
3. Configuration priority order: Settings (DB) > .env > app config > defaults
Fixes configuration management workflow where users can set initial values
in .env but override them permanently via WebUI without modifying .env.
Add support for four authentication modes via AUTH_METHOD environment variable:
- none: Username-only authentication (no password)
- local: Password authentication required (default)
- oidc: OIDC/Single Sign-On only
- both: OIDC + local password authentication
Key changes:
- Add password_hash column to users table (migration 068)
- Implement password storage and verification in User model
- Update login routes to handle all authentication modes
- Add conditional password fields in login templates
- Support password authentication in kiosk mode
- Allow password changes in user profile when enabled
Password authentication is now enabled by default for better security,
while remaining backward compatible with existing installations.
Users will be prompted to set passwords when required.
Fixes authentication bypass issue where users could access accounts
without passwords even after setting them.

Backward Compatibility:
- Existing global columns continue to work
- Projects without custom columns fall back to global columns
- Task status validation uses project-specific columns when available
Impact: High - Enables multi-project teams to have different workflows
per project while maintaining backward compatibility with existing
global column setup.

BREAKING CHANGE: Permission system now actively enforced across all routes
## Summary
Complete implementation of advanced role-based access control (RBAC) system
with full route protection, UI conditionals, and enhanced management interface.
## Route Protection
- Updated all admin routes to use @admin_or_permission_required decorator
- Replaced inline admin checks with granular permission checks in:
* Admin routes: user management, settings, backups, telemetry, OIDC
* Project routes: create, edit, delete, archive, bulk operations
* Client routes: create, edit, delete, archive, bulk operations
- Maintained backward compatibility with existing @admin_required decorator
## UI Permission Integration
- Added template helpers (has_permission, has_any_permission) to all templates
- Navigation conditionally shows admin/OIDC links based on permissions
- Action buttons (Edit, Delete, Archive) conditional on user permissions
- Project and client pages respect permission requirements
- Create buttons visible only with appropriate permissions
## Enhanced Roles & Permissions UI
- Added statistics dashboard showing:
* Total roles, system roles, custom roles, assigned users
- Implemented expandable permission details in roles list
* Click to view all permissions grouped by category
* Visual checkmarks for assigned permissions
- Enhanced user list with role visibility:
* Shows all assigned roles as color-coded badges
* Blue badges for system roles, gray for custom roles
* Yellow badges for legacy roles with migration prompt
* Merged legacy role column into unified "Roles & Permissions"
- User count per role now clickable and accurate
## Security Improvements
- Added CSRF tokens to all new permission system forms:
* Role creation/edit form
* Role deletion form
* User role assignment form
- All POST requests now protected against CSRF attacks
## Technical Details
- Fixed SQLAlchemy relationship query issues (AppenderQuery)
- Proper use of .count() for relationship aggregation
- Jinja2 namespace for accumulating counts in templates
- Responsive grid layouts for statistics and permission cards
## Documentation
- Created comprehensive implementation guides
- Added permission enforcement documentation
- Documented UI enhancements and features
- Included CSRF protection review
## Impact
- Permissions are now actively enforced, not just defined
- Admins can easily see who has what access
- Clear visual indicators of permission assignments
- Secure forms with CSRF protection
- Production-ready permission system
