* add test suite, mostly covers integration testing, tests are only backend side
* workflow runs the correct script
* workflow runs the correct script
* workflow runs the correct script
* unit tests incoming
* Fix multer silent rejections and error handler info leak
- Revert cb(null, false) to cb(new Error(...)) in auth.ts, collab.ts,
and files.ts so invalid uploads return an error instead of silently
dropping the file
- Error handler in app.ts now always returns 500 / "Internal server
error" instead of forwarding err.message to the client
* Use statusCode consistently for multer errors and error handler
- Error handler in app.ts reads err.statusCode to forward the correct
HTTP status while keeping the response body generic
Eliminates XSS token theft risk by storing session JWTs in an httpOnly
cookie (trek_session) instead of localStorage, making them inaccessible
to JavaScript entirely.
- Add cookie-parser middleware and setAuthCookie/clearAuthCookie helpers
- Set trek_session cookie on login, register, demo-login, MFA verify, OIDC exchange
- Auth middleware reads cookie first, falls back to Authorization: Bearer (MCP unchanged)
- Add POST /api/auth/logout to clear the cookie server-side
- Remove all localStorage auth_token reads/writes from client
- Axios uses withCredentials; raw fetch calls use credentials: include
- WebSocket ws-token exchange uses credentials: include (no JWT param)
- authStore initialises isLoading: true so ProtectedRoute waits for /api/auth/me

The project uses express@^4.18.3 at runtime but had @types/express@^5.0.6
as type definitions. The v5 types widened ParamsDictionary from
string to string | string[], causing 115 type errors across all route
handlers.
Fix: downgrade @types/express to ^4.17.25 (latest v4), which correctly
types req.params as string — matching Express 4 runtime behaviour.
Removes the StringParams = Record<string, string> workaround from
types.ts and the Request<StringParams> annotations from all 15 route
files that were introduced as a workaround for the type mismatch.
- Add StringParams = Record<string, string> to types.ts
- Use Request<StringParams> in all route handlers across 14 files
- Clean up earlier as-cast workarounds in places.ts and admin.ts
- tsconfig.json: keep original (removed bad 'types:node' addition)
- package.json: restore @types/express back to ^5.0.6
