Contributor guide
Research direction
Review the completed PRs #15611 and #15582 to understand the existing delegated-auth work. Then investigate the unchecked reverse-proxying task and listed follow-ups—appservice support, documentation, configuration errors, and TODO comments; the issue is complete only when the intended remaining scope is implemented and released.
