Nextcloud authenticates app passwords against the *loginName*, which differs
from the UID for OIDC-provisioned users (e.g. user_oidc makes the UID the
display name: UID "Ada Lovelace", loginName "ada@example.com"). The runtime
consumers of stored app passwords bound the UID as the BasicAuth username, so
every Notes/Files/Shares/CalDAV call returned HTTP 401.
PR #818 fixed only the provisioning endpoint; the consuming paths were missed.
Observed on a login_flow tenant (NC's own OIDC app as IdP): the background-sync
scan loop never started ("Credential validation failed ... HTTP 401") and
semantic search returned 0 results because the ACL shared_with_me lookup 401'd
and degraded to a self-only owner filter.
Root cause: NextcloudClient / CalendarClient conflated two identities — the
DAV/URL path identity (the user_id the whole system keys on = NC UID) and the
auth-credential username (the loginName). Decouple them:
- Thread a keyword-only auth_username through NextcloudClient -> CalendarClient
(defaults to username, so single-user / OAuth where UID == loginName is
unchanged).
- get_user_client_basic_auth (background sync + the /api/v1/vector-viz/search
endpoint) authenticates as the stored loginName, UID for paths.
- _get_client_from_login_flow (the get_client(ctx) MCP-tool path) does the same.
- cleanup_invalid_app_passwords validates with the loginName, so it no longer
401s and wrongly deletes a valid OIDC user's password.
The loginName is already persisted in app_passwords.username and returned by
get_app_password_with_scopes. Adds unit tests covering the UID != loginName
split for both client builders, the calendar credential/path split, and the
cleanup validation. Also genericises the example user in the #818 comment/test
(real name/email -> Ada Lovelace / ada@example.com).

provision_app_password validated the supplied app password by calling the
OCS cloud/user endpoint with BasicAuth as the *path user_id* (the UID).
Nextcloud keys app-password BasicAuth on the loginName, which differs from
the UID for OIDC-provisioned accounts whose UID is their display name
(UID "Chris Coutinho", loginName "chris@coutinho.io"). Authenticating as
the UID is rejected with HTTP 401 ("App password validation failed"), so
provisioning never completes.
Parse the request body up front and authenticate the OCS validation as the
body's `username` (the Nextcloud loginName), falling back to the path
user_id for legacy callers where UID == loginName. The OCS-returned account
id is still checked against the path user_id (the UID), and the password is
still stored keyed by UID with the loginName alongside.
Note this is not an encoding issue: BasicAuth places the user-id literally
in the header (RFC 7617, no URL-encoding); %20/+/literal-space forms of the
UID all fail — only the loginName authenticates.
Adds a regression test asserting the OCS BasicAuth uses the loginName while
storage is keyed by the UID, plus a backward-compat assertion that callers
without a loginName fall back to the UID.

Two fixes surfaced while testing Login Flow v2 provisioning behind a split
internal/external host (Docker: server↔Nextcloud over http://app, browser
over http://localhost:8080):
1. login_url pointed at the internal host. Nextcloud builds the login URL
from the request host, so the browser-facing URL came back as
http://app/login/v2/flow/... — unreachable from the user's browser. The
poll endpoint was already rewritten to the internal host (correct, the
server polls it); now LoginFlowV2Client also rewrites the login_url origin
to settings.nextcloud_public_issuer_url when set (passed at all 5
construction sites). When unset, behaviour is unchanged.
2. The app-password format guard rejected raw session tokens. core/
getapppassword returns a long alphanumeric token, not the dashed 25-char
Security-settings format, so the dashed-only regex 400'd the one-click
opt-in handoff. Relax APP_PASSWORD_PATTERN to `^[a-zA-Z0-9-]{20,256}$`;
the authoritative validation is still the BasicAuth check against Nextcloud.

The elicitation flow points users to the Astrolabe web route or the
BasicAuth REST endpoint to provision their app password. Both paths
stored the password without clearing the in-process scope cache, so a
user who provisioned through them would keep hitting
ProvisioningRequiredError for up to _SCOPE_CACHE_TTL (5 min) afterwards.
Add invalidate_scope_cache(user_id) to both write-paths (matching the
existing pattern in nc_auth_check_status), correct the now-misleading
comment in scope_authorization.py to name all three invalidation paths,
and add a one-line hint above the first elicitation patch in the test
file so future authors don't "fix" the patch target to the wrong module.
Addresses PR #757 round-3 review feedback.

Enable ruff PLC0415 rule for all source files (tests excluded via
per-file-ignores). Move 136 inline imports to top-level across 33 files.
8 imports suppressed with noqa for legitimate reasons: circular
dependencies (client/__init__.py, context.py), optional dependency
guards (app.py document processors, auth/userinfo_routes.py), and
post-env-setup imports (smithery_main.py).

Add NEXTCLOUD_VERIFY_SSL and NEXTCLOUD_CA_BUNDLE env vars to configure
TLS certificate verification for all outbound Nextcloud connections.
Centralizes SSL config via a new HTTP client factory (http.py) used by
all 27 Nextcloud-bound call sites, including API clients, OIDC endpoints,
OAuth flows, and health checks.
