Rework the seed catalog from the cleaned live DB: dedupe Dell vendor/model rows, strip vendor names out of model numbers, add missing models, assign model types across printer and equipment lines, add a Controller type, and split a mashup HP LaserJet row into six real models. Now 44 vendors, 172 models, 173 modelsupplies. Also document that assets.csv needs its subtype file to appear in typed list views, and ignore devnotes/ scratch.
Clone-to-first-change onboarding, plus .vscode launch/tasks/extensions
so F5 debugs the backend and a task runs both dev servers. Fix the
README manual path to run the backend on 5001 (the frontend proxies
there; the default 5000 loaded nothing).
At sites running the external HR directory the self-hosted table is
empty, so every kiosk badge fell to the deny policy. The resolver now
branches on employee_directory_mode: selfhosted reads the directory
table by SSO; external queries the HR directory, resolving PayNo
badges by their real PayNo column.
