Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading issue #2762 and tracing the current uses of web.ctx; this issue does not identify files or tests. A completed change would need an agreed replacement that avoids overloading web.ctx, followed by relevant tests, but the payload does not define the acceptance criteria.
