SessionAuthBackend middleware was wrapping the entire app including FastMCP,
which prevented FastMCP's OAuth token verification from running properly.
When SessionAuthBackend returned None for /mcp paths, Starlette marked requests
as "anonymous" and allowed them through, bypassing FastMCP's authentication.
Changes:
1. Route restructuring (app.py):
- Create separate Starlette app for browser routes (/user, /user/page)
- Apply SessionAuthBackend only to browser app
- Mount browser app at /user/* before FastMCP
- Mount FastMCP at / (catch-all with its own OAuth)
- Remove global SessionAuthBackend middleware
2. SessionAuthBackend cleanup (session_backend.py):
- Remove path exclusion logic (no longer needed)
- Simplify to only handle browser routes
- Update docstring to reflect mount-based isolation
Benefits:
- FastMCP's OAuth token verification now runs properly
- No middleware interference between authentication mechanisms
- Clear separation: SessionAuth for browser UI, OAuth Bearer for MCP clients
- Tests confirm OAuth authentication works correctly
Testing:
- All OAuth tests pass (test_mcp_oauth_*, test_jwt_*)
- Browser routes still require session auth
- FastMCP routes use OAuth Bearer tokens exclusively

Implements /user and /user/page endpoints for displaying authenticated
user information in both BasicAuth and OAuth modes.
Key Features:
- Separate browser OAuth flow (/oauth/login, /oauth/login-callback, /oauth/logout)
- Session-based authentication using signed cookies
- Token refresh for persistent sessions
- HTML and JSON user info endpoints
- IdP profile information retrieval
Architecture:
- BasicAuth mode: Always authenticated as configured user
- OAuth mode: Browser-based authorization code flow with refresh tokens
- Session stored in SQLite with encrypted refresh tokens
- Server-side token refresh using internal Docker hostnames
OAuth Flow:
- /oauth/login: Initiates browser OAuth flow
- /oauth/login-callback: Handles IdP callback and stores refresh token
- /oauth/logout: Clears session cookie
- /user: JSON API endpoint (requires authentication)
- /user/page: HTML page endpoint (requires authentication)
DCR Scopes Fix:
- MCP server DCR now only requests basic OIDC scopes (openid profile email offline_access)
- Nextcloud app scopes (notes:read, etc.) are for MCP clients, not the server itself
- PRM endpoint dynamically advertises supported scopes from tool decorators
