### What Happened?
Password entry is not focused by default when Greeter appears on OS 9 Daily, although the intended code exists:

You need to manually focus on it to start typing your password.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start in src/Cards/UserCard.vala around lines 162-169, where the intended password-entry focus logic is referenced. Reproduce the issue by booting OS 9 Daily and checking the Greeter when it appears; done means the password entry is focused automatically and accepts typing without manual focus.
