Summary

Verify the protected dashboard route, role-aware permission helpers, and Sprint 1 integration baseline.

Changes

• Added Friday console verification runbook for protected dashboard and role access checks.
• Verified dashboard route registration, URL resolution, and template discovery.
• Verified anonymous users are redirected away from the dashboard.
• Verified authenticated users can access the dashboard and land there after login.
• Verified authenticated and public navigation states.
• Verified role permission helpers for anonymous users, superusers, users without roles, and users with roles.
• Verified role_required() blocks missing roles and allows matching roles.
• Updated verification expectations to the current 48 test baseline.

Behavior

• /dashboard/ remains protected by authentication.
• Login redirects authenticated users to the dashboard.
• Role display works through view context.
• Permission decisions remain centralized in Python helpers/decorators.
• Verification data uses isolated Friday-only users and role slugs.

Why

This confirms Sprint 1 has a reliable protected UI path and a tested role-permission foundation before moving into Sprint 2 study-session data.

Validation

• Friday runbook passed end to end.
• Dashboard tests passed.
• Role and permission tests passed.
• Top-level integration tests passed.
• Full isolated suite passed with 48 passed.
• Black, Ruff, and isort passed.
• Migrations are clean.

Result

Sprint 1 protected routes, dashboard access, and role helper behavior are verified and ready for completion review.

Notes

• The dashboard is authentication-protected, not role-protected.
• The verification role uses friday-student to avoid touching common/local role data.
• Role checks use user.studybuddy_roles, matching the current role model.
• Templates only display role context; permission decisions stay in helpers/decorators.
• The current expected suite baseline is 48 tests.
• The Day 5 runbook is executable at docs/sprint-runbook/sprint-1/sprint-1-day-5.sh.
