A Spelunk API key reaches one organisation, so a server elsewhere - oc-linux in Orange Climate - was
refused before it reached the agent. Each device now signs in to a Spelunk once, under Settings ->
Security -> Spelunk or from a Spelunk host's editor: the OAuth authorization code flow with PKCE for a
native app (RFC 8252), with Spelunk as the authorization server. The browser opens Spelunk's
/api/app-sign-in/authorize with a loopback redirect (the app's own scheme on Android), the person signs
in there however they normally do and allows "DodoSSH on <device>", and the code is redeemed at
/api/app-sign-in/token for an app session token. That token opens terminals in every organisation its
person is in, with the role they have on each server at the time; tunnel tickets send no organisation.
The sign-in stays on the device: sealed in the local cache under the LocalCacheKey (AAD resource type
18, bound to its row), never synced, wiped with the cache, and only ever sent to the Spelunk it came
from. A 401 from Spelunk forgets it; SIGN OUT ends it there and here, and so does signing out of
DodoSSH. Before every Spelunk connection DodoSSH asks its own identity provider whether its sign-in
still stands (a forced refresh, at most once a minute), and an account it refuses is signed out of
DodoSSH and of every Spelunk on the device.
A route names no key any more: Spelunk hosts are written at host schema 11, which an older build shows
read-only and asks to be updated for, and a payload that still names a key credential decodes with the
id skipped. The SpelunkKey item type is gone: SyncEntityType 14, ChangeEntityType 14 and AAD type 17
are retired, the server drops spelunk_key and its change-log rows, and the client cache drops its
cached items, outbox entries and conflicts of that type. A link still never starts a sign-in: from a
Spelunk this device is not signed in to it opens the editor, which offers to.

Settings → Security gains a SPELUNK section: an API address and a key, saved as a new keychain item, a Spelunk key (SyncEntityType 14, AadResourceType 17, server table spelunk_key via the AddSpelunkKeyItem migration). It is ciphertext only on the server, lives in the personal vault, syncs like every secret, and holds the key together with the one address it may be sent to. The key box empties once saved; the list shows name, address and how many hosts use each key, never the key. Saving a key for an address that already has one replaces it, and deleting goes through the shared confirmation card with the hosts that would stop connecting.
A host's route names a saved key where it named a credential, in the same apiKeyCredentialId field, so no host schema changes and an older build reads such a host as one whose key credential has gone. At connect a saved key is sent only to its own address; a host naming it with another Spelunk address is refused in words. Keys kept as a credential's password still work. The editor offers saved keys first and picks the one saved for an address as it is typed.
A link from a Spelunk with a saved key now connects straight away, including the first one: saving the key is the user's say-so that the first-link editor used to ask for.
The address and key merge as one pair, so two concurrent edits can never pair one device's key with another's address, and the key never reaches the conflict log.
