Auth is the per-boot setup token (written ONLY to /run/quasar/setup-token, 0600, never to the log; the boot log names the file path) — NOT a bearer token. Wrong or missing token → 401 with no message/timing distinction. Refused with 409 setup_already_complete once any admin exists (checked under the same advisory lock as BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_* provisioning, so the two paths can never both create an admin). Response is login-shaped so the operator is signed in as their new admin.
Parameters
Section titled “Parameters”Header Parameters
Section titled “Header Parameters”The per-boot setup token. Wrong/missing → 401, indistinguishable.
Request Bodyrequired
Section titled “Request Bodyrequired”object
Obeys the same strength rule as /v1/auth/register; never logged or returned.
Optional; binds the minted founding-admin token to this device, exactly as POST /v1/auth/login does (LP-SEC-01). Without it the first admin’s token carries no device_id and is therefore invisible to per-device revocation in Account > Devices — the longest-lived, highest-privilege session would be the one that cannot be killed if stolen. Absent is accepted and behaves as before.

Section titled “Responses”First admin created; caller is now authenticated as that admin.
object
The opaque bearer token — the field is access_token, NOT token.

Present on /v1/me + register; omitted from the login user.

Open string, not an enum: new codes are additive and an unknown one falls through to a client’s generic per-status branch.
Present on restart_required.
Steam library discovery Phase 3, ADDITIVE: present on home_in_use when the guard could name the CONFLICTING live session - the one already holding the home. It is here so the client can offer “go to your running session” with a link instead of a dead-end toast. OMITTED rather than empty when the conflict is known but the session is not, so a client branches on presence and never renders a link to nowhere. Load-bearing once derived tiles exist: the lock is held by the PARENT’s home, so a user who clicks a game tile can be refused because a DIFFERENT app (the Steam launcher, or another game from the same install) is running, and without the session id the refusal reads as a bug. See control-api.md §Derived tiles.
Steam library discovery Phase 3, ADDITIVE: present on the 409 conflict from DELETE /v1/apps/{id} when the app has derived tiles and ?delete_derived=true was not sent. A LIST, not a count - the point of the confirmation is that the admin sees what they are about to destroy. Capped; an empty array means the tiles could not be listed, never that there are none.
