Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the token and session expiry handling, then determine how background jobs are defined and scheduled. Done means expired tokens and sessions are cleaned up without requiring an attempted use.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Probably two jobs, but they'll work exactly the same way. We hard delete tokens and sessions when you try to use one that's expired, but that still leaves a ton of expired ones around.
