…e panic with error return - Session cookie max-age reduced from 1 year to 24 hours to match server-side session expiry - Error messages in verify_email, reset_password, and verify_otp no longer leak internal error details - GenerateOTP now returns (string, error) instead of panicking on crypto/rand failure
