Owner: "i also want you to look for more UX issues, where we can make our product ridiculously easy to use."

End-to-end UX audit of production (release-prod-2, 3a89477e): every flow as a first-time and a daily user, at 1440×900 and 393×852, against TASTE.md and D178–D216. Output: research/ux-audit/REPORT.md with captures on branch ux-audit; top 10 by impact over effort, the full list by flow, and grill questions for owner decisions. Research only: no product code changes, no deploys.

Audit walked on the real server (release-addhost musl binary, release-prod-2 web bundle) and the test double; 52 captures at 1440×900 and 393×852 are in .worktrees/ux-audit/research/ux-audit/captures/ (uncommitted).

Blocked: this job's harness refuses to write research/ux-audit/REPORT.md (report files are returned as text to the orchestrator). The full report text, top 10 and grill questions Q1–Q14 are handed to the orchestrator to write, commit with the captures, and push to ux-audit. No commit or push made from this job.

Headline evidence: each page load with an empty Console opens a new shell (8 → 9 → 10 detached over three reloads); closing all windows shows "No hosts yet" while 7 sessions run; a bare host fails the whole add-host batch with "Something went wrong… Try again"; PRF-less passkey shows "Passkey confirmation did not finish. Try again."; PC shortcuts use Ctrl+Alt (AltGr) against D206; Ctrl+K never reaches a terminal on PC.
