working on a fix for SSO issue

- Prevent Automation UI from overriding schedule:
      - mapDbScheduleToUi now parses intervals robustly (cron/duration/seconds) via parseInterval
      - mapUiScheduleToDb merges with existing config and stores interval as seconds (no lossy cron conversion)
      - /api/config passes existing scheduleConfig to preserve ENV-sourced values
      - schedule-sync endpoint uses parseInterval for nextRun calculation
  - Add AUTO_MIRROR_REPOS support and scheduled auto-mirror phase:
      - scheduleConfig schema includes autoImport and autoMirror
      - env-config-loader reads AUTO_MIRROR_REPOS and carries through to DB
      - scheduler auto-mirrors imported/pending/failed repos when autoMirror is enabled before regular sync
      - docker-compose and ENV docs updated with AUTO_MIRROR_REPOS
  - Tests pass and build succeeds

+
+You are an elite QA Testing Specialist with deep expertise in software quality assurance, test automation, and validation strategies. Your mission is to ensure code quality through comprehensive testing approaches that catch bugs early and maintain high reliability standards.
+
+**Core Responsibilities:**
+
+You will analyze code and testing requirements to:
+- Design comprehensive test strategies covering unit, integration, and end-to-end testing
+- Write clear, maintainable test cases that validate both happy paths and edge cases
+- Identify gaps in existing test coverage and propose improvements
+- Review test code for best practices and maintainability
+- Suggest appropriate testing frameworks and tools based on the technology stack
+- Create test data strategies and mock/stub implementations
+- Validate that tests are actually testing meaningful behavior, not just implementation details
+
+**Testing Methodology:**
+
+When analyzing code for testing:
+1. First understand the business logic and user requirements
+2. Identify all possible execution paths and edge cases
+3. Determine the appropriate testing pyramid balance (unit vs integration vs e2e)
+4. Consider both positive and negative test scenarios
+5. Ensure tests are isolated, repeatable, and fast
+6. Validate error handling and boundary conditions
+
+For test creation:
+- Write descriptive test names that explain what is being tested and expected behavior
+- Follow AAA pattern (Arrange, Act, Assert) or Given-When-Then structure
+- Keep tests focused on single behaviors
+- Use appropriate assertions that clearly communicate intent
+- Include setup and teardown when necessary
+- Consider performance implications of test suites
+
+**Quality Standards:**
+
+You will ensure tests:
+- Are deterministic and don't rely on external state
+- Run quickly and can be executed in parallel when possible
+- Provide clear failure messages that help diagnose issues
+- Cover critical business logic thoroughly
+- Include regression tests for previously found bugs
+- Are maintainable and refactorable alongside production code
+
+**Technology Considerations:**
+
+Adapt your recommendations based on the project stack. For this codebase using Bun, SQLite, and React:
+- Leverage Bun's native test runner for JavaScript/TypeScript tests
+- Consider SQLite in-memory databases for integration tests
+- Suggest React Testing Library patterns for component testing
+- Recommend API testing strategies for Astro endpoints
+- Propose mocking strategies for external services (GitHub/Gitea APIs)
+
+**Communication Style:**
+
+You will:
+- Explain testing decisions with clear rationale
+- Provide code examples that demonstrate best practices
+- Prioritize test recommendations based on risk and value
+- Use precise technical language while remaining accessible
+- Highlight potential issues proactively
+- Suggest incremental improvements for existing test suites
+
+**Edge Case Handling:**
+
+When encountering:
+- Legacy code without tests: Propose a pragmatic approach to add tests incrementally
+- Complex dependencies: Recommend appropriate mocking/stubbing strategies
+- Performance concerns: Balance thoroughness with execution speed
+- Flaky tests: Identify root causes and suggest stabilization techniques
+- Missing requirements: Ask clarifying questions to understand expected behavior
+
+Your goal is to elevate code quality through strategic testing that builds confidence in the software while maintaining development velocity. Focus on tests that provide maximum value and catch real issues rather than achieving arbitrary coverage metrics.

+
+You are a strategic planning specialist with deep expertise in decomposing complex tasks and creating actionable execution plans. Your role is to transform ambiguous or overwhelming projects into clear, structured roadmaps that teams can confidently execute.
+
+When analyzing a task or project, you will:
+
+1. **Understand the Core Objective**: Extract the fundamental goal, success criteria, and constraints. Ask clarifying questions if critical details are missing.
+
+2. **Decompose Systematically**: Break down the task using these principles:
+   - Identify major phases or milestones
+   - Decompose each phase into concrete, actionable tasks
+   - Keep tasks small enough to complete in 1-4 hours when possible
+   - Ensure each task has clear completion criteria
+
+3. **Map Dependencies**: Identify and document:
+   - Task prerequisites and dependencies
+   - Critical path items that could block progress
+   - Parallel work streams that can proceed independently
+   - Resource or knowledge requirements
+
+4. **Sequence Strategically**: Order tasks by:
+   - Technical dependencies (what must come first)
+   - Risk mitigation (tackle unknowns early)
+   - Value delivery (enable early feedback when possible)
+   - Resource efficiency (batch similar work)
+
+5. **Provide Actionable Output**: Structure your plans with:
+   - **Phase Overview**: High-level phases with objectives
+   - **Task Breakdown**: Numbered tasks with clear descriptions
+   - **Dependencies**: Explicitly stated prerequisites
+   - **Effort Estimates**: Rough time estimates when relevant
+   - **Risk Considerations**: Potential blockers or challenges
+   - **Success Metrics**: How to measure completion
+
+6. **Adapt to Context**: Tailor your planning approach based on:
+   - Technical vs non-technical tasks
+   - Team size and skill level
+   - Time constraints and deadlines
+   - Available resources and tools
+
+**Output Format Guidelines**:
+- Use clear hierarchical structure (phases → tasks → subtasks)
+- Number all tasks for easy reference
+- Bold key terms and phase names
+- Include time estimates in brackets [2-4 hours]
+- Mark critical path items with ⚡
+- Flag high-risk items with ⚠️
+
+**Quality Checks**:
+- Ensure no task is too large or vague
+- Verify all dependencies are identified
+- Confirm the plan addresses the original objective
+- Check that success criteria are measurable
+- Validate that the sequence makes logical sense
+
+Remember: A good plan reduces uncertainty and builds confidence. Focus on clarity, completeness, and actionability. When in doubt, err on the side of breaking things down further rather than leaving ambiguity.

+
+## Project Structure & Module Organization
+- `src/` – app code
+  - `components/` (React, PascalCase files), `pages/` (Astro/API routes), `lib/` (domain + utilities, kebab-case), `hooks/`, `layouts/`, `styles/`, `tests/`, `types/`, `data/`, `content/`.
+- `scripts/` – operational TS scripts (DB init, recovery): e.g., `scripts/manage-db.ts`.
+- `drizzle/` – SQL migrations; `data/` – runtime SQLite (`gitea-mirror.db`).
+- `public/` – static assets; `dist/` – build output.
+- Key config: `astro.config.mjs`, `tsconfig.json` (alias `@/* → src/*`), `bunfig.toml` (test preload), `.env(.example)`.
+
+## Build, Test, and Development Commands
+- Prereq: Bun `>= 1.2.9` (see `package.json`).
+- Setup: `bun run setup` – install deps and init DB.
+- Dev: `bun run dev` – start Astro dev server.
+- Build: `bun run build` – produce `dist/`.
+- Preview/Start: `bun run preview` (static preview) or `bun run start` (SSR entry).
+- Database: `bun run db:generate|migrate|push|studio` and `bun run manage-db init|check|fix|reset-users`.
+- Tests: `bun test` | `bun run test:watch` | `bun run test:coverage`.
+- Docker: see `docker-compose.yml` and variants in repo root.
+
+## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
+- Language: TypeScript, Astro, React.
+- Indentation: 2 spaces; keep existing semicolon/quote style in touched files.
+- Components: PascalCase `.tsx` in `src/components/` (e.g., `MainLayout.tsx`).
+- Modules/utils: kebab-case in `src/lib/` (e.g., `gitea-enhanced.ts`).
+- Imports: prefer alias `@/…` (configured in `tsconfig.json`).
+- Do not introduce new lint/format configs; follow current patterns.
+
+## Testing Guidelines
+- Runner: Bun test (`bun:test`) with preload `src/tests/setup.bun.ts` (see `bunfig.toml`).
+- Location/Names: `**/*.test.ts(x)` under `src/**` (examples in `src/lib/**`).
+- Scope: add unit tests for new logic and API route tests for handlers.
+- Aim for meaningful coverage on DB, auth, and mirroring paths.
+
+## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
+- Commits: short, imperative, scoped when helpful (e.g., `lib: fix token parsing`, `ui: align buttons`).
+- PRs must include:
+  - Summary, rationale, and testing steps/commands.
+  - Linked issues (e.g., `Closes #123`).
+  - Screenshots/gifs for UI changes.
+  - Notes on DB/migration or .env impacts; update `docs/`/CHANGELOG if applicable.
+
+## Security & Configuration Tips
+- Never commit secrets. Copy `.env.example` → `.env` and fill values; prefer `bun run startup-env-config` to validate.
+- SQLite files live in `data/`; avoid committing generated DBs.
+- Certificates (if used) reside in `certs/`; manage locally or via Docker secrets.

+
+## [3.7.1] - 2025-09-14
+
+### Fixed
+- Cleanup archiving for mirror repositories now works reliably (refs #84; awaiting user confirmation).
+  - Gitea rejects names violating the AlphaDashDot rule; archiving a mirror now uses a sanitized rename strategy (`archived-<name>`), with a timestamped fallback on conflicts or validation errors.
+  - Owner resolution during cleanup no longer uses the GitHub owner by mistake. It prefers `mirroredLocation`, falls back to computed Gitea owner via configuration, and verifies location with a presence check to avoid `GetUserByName` 404s.
+- Repositories UI crash resolved when cleanup marked repos as archived.
+  - Added `"archived"` to repository/job status enums, fixing Zod validation errors on the Repositories page.
+
+### Changed
+- Archiving logic for mirror repos is non-destructive by design: data is preserved, repo is renamed with an archive marker, and mirror interval is reduced (best‑effort) to minimize sync attempts.
+- Cleanup service updates DB to `status: "archived"` and `isArchived: true` on successful archive path.

+### Scheduling and Synchronization (Issue #72 Fixes)
+
+#### Fixed Issues
+1. **Mirror Interval Bug**: Added `mirror_interval` parameter to Gitea API calls when creating mirrors (previously defaulted to 24h)
+2. **Auto-Discovery**: Scheduler now automatically discovers and imports new GitHub repositories
+3. **Interval Updates**: Sync operations now update existing mirrors' intervals to match configuration
+4. **Repository Cleanup**: Integrated automatic cleanup of orphaned repositories (repos removed from GitHub)
+
+#### Environment Variables for Auto-Import
+- **AUTO_IMPORT_REPOS**: Set to `false` to disable automatic repository discovery (default: enabled)
+
+#### How Scheduling Works
+- **Scheduler Service**: Runs every minute to check for scheduled tasks
+- **Sync Interval**: Configured via `GITEA_MIRROR_INTERVAL` or UI (e.g., "8h", "30m", "1d")
+- **Auto-Import**: Checks GitHub for new repositories during each scheduled sync
+- **Auto-Cleanup**: Removes repositories that no longer exist in GitHub (if enabled)
+- **Mirror Interval Update**: Updates Gitea's internal mirror interval during sync operations

+
+### Automatic Syncing & Synchronization
+
+Gitea Mirror provides powerful automatic synchronization features:
+
+#### Features (v3.4.0+)
+- **Auto-discovery**: Automatically discovers and imports new GitHub repositories
+- **Repository cleanup**: Removes repositories that no longer exist in GitHub
+- **Proper intervals**: Mirrors respect your configured sync intervals (not Gitea's default 24h)
+- **Smart scheduling**: Only syncs repositories that need updating
+- **Auto-start on boot** (v3.5.3+): Automatically imports and mirrors all repositories when `SCHEDULE_ENABLED=true` or `GITEA_MIRROR_INTERVAL` is set - no manual clicks required!
+
+#### Configuration via Web Interface (Recommended)
+Navigate to the Configuration page and enable "Automatic Syncing" with your preferred interval.
+
+#### Configuration via Environment Variables
+
+**🚀 Set it and forget it!** With these environment variables, Gitea Mirror will automatically:
+1. **Import** all your GitHub repositories on startup (no manual import needed!)
+2. **Mirror** them to Gitea immediately  
+3. **Keep them synchronized** based on your interval
+4. **Auto-discover** new repos you create/star on GitHub
+5. **Clean up** repos you delete from GitHub
+
+```bash
+# Option 1: Enable automatic scheduling (triggers auto-start)
+SCHEDULE_ENABLED=true
+SCHEDULE_INTERVAL=3600        # Check every hour (or use cron: "0 * * * *")
+
+# Option 2: Set mirror interval (also triggers auto-start)
+GITEA_MIRROR_INTERVAL=8h     # Every 8 hours
+# Other examples: 5m, 30m, 1h, 24h, 1d, 7d
+
+# Advanced: Use cron expressions for specific times
+SCHEDULE_INTERVAL="0 2 * * *"  # Daily at 2 AM (optimize bandwidth usage)
+
+# Auto-import new repositories (default: true)
+AUTO_IMPORT_REPOS=true
+
+# Auto-cleanup orphaned repositories
+CLEANUP_DELETE_IF_NOT_IN_GITHUB=true
+CLEANUP_ORPHANED_REPO_ACTION=archive  # 'archive' (recommended) or 'delete'
+CLEANUP_DRY_RUN=false                 # Set to true to test without changes
+```
+
+**Important Notes**:
+- **Auto-Start**: When `SCHEDULE_ENABLED=true` or `GITEA_MIRROR_INTERVAL` is set, the service automatically imports all GitHub repositories and mirrors them on startup. No manual "Import" or "Mirror" button clicks required!
+- The scheduler checks every minute for tasks to run. The `GITEA_MIRROR_INTERVAL` determines how often each repository is actually synced. For example, with `8h`, each repo syncs every 8 hours from its last successful sync.
+
+**🛡️ Backup Protection Features**:
+- **No Accidental Deletions**: Repository cleanup is automatically skipped if GitHub is inaccessible (account deleted, banned, or API errors)
+- **Archive Never Deletes Data**: The `archive` action preserves all repository data:
+  - Regular repositories: Made read-only using Gitea's archive feature
+  - Mirror repositories: Renamed with `[ARCHIVED]` prefix (Gitea API limitation prevents archiving mirrors)
+  - Failed operations: Repository remains fully accessible even if marking as archived fails
+- **The Whole Point of Backups**: Your Gitea mirrors are preserved even when GitHub sources disappear - that's why you have backups!
+- **Strongly Recommended**: Always use `CLEANUP_ORPHANED_REPO_ACTION=archive` (default) instead of `delete`

+## Known Limitations
+
+### Pull Request Mirroring Implementation
+Pull requests **cannot be created as actual PRs** in Gitea due to API limitations. Instead, they are mirrored as **enriched issues** with comprehensive metadata.
+
+**Why real PR mirroring isn't possible:**
+- Gitea's API doesn't support creating pull requests from external sources
+- Real PRs require actual Git branches with commits to exist in the repository
+- Would require complex branch synchronization and commit replication
+- The mirror relationship is one-way (GitHub → Gitea) for repository content
+
+**How we handle Pull Requests:**
+PRs are mirrored as issues with rich metadata including:
+- 🏷️ Special "pull-request" label for identification
+- 📌 [PR #number] prefix in title with status indicators ([MERGED], [CLOSED])
+- 👤 Original author and creation date
+- 📝 Complete commit history (up to 10 commits with links)
+- 📊 File changes summary with additions/deletions
+- 📁 List of modified files (up to 20 files)
+- 💬 Original PR description and comments
+- 🔀 Base and head branch information
+- ✅ Merge status tracking
+
+This approach preserves all important PR information while working within Gitea's API constraints. The PRs appear in Gitea's issue tracker with clear visual distinction and comprehensive details.

+# Environment Variables Documentation
+
+This document provides a comprehensive list of all environment variables supported by Gitea Mirror. These can be used to configure the application via Docker or other deployment methods.
+
+## Environment Variables and UI Interaction
+
+When environment variables are set:
+1. They are loaded on application startup
+2. Values are stored in the database on first load
+3. The UI will display these values and they can be modified
+4. UI changes are saved to the database and persist
+5. Environment variables provide initial defaults but don't override UI changes
+
+**Note**: Some critical settings like `GITEA_LFS`, `MIRROR_RELEASES`, and `MIRROR_METADATA` will be visible and configurable in the UI even when set via environment variables.

+
+Configure automatic scheduled mirroring.
+
+### Basic Schedule Settings
+
+| Variable | Description | Default | Options |

+| `SCHEDULE_INTERVAL` | Interval in seconds or cron expression. **Supports cron syntax for scheduled runs** (e.g., `"0 2 * * *"` for 2 AM daily) | `3600` | Number (seconds) or cron string |
+| `DELAY` | Legacy: same as SCHEDULE_INTERVAL | `3600` | Number (seconds) |
+
+> **🚀 Auto-Start Feature (v3.5.3+)**  
+> Setting either `SCHEDULE_ENABLED=true` or `GITEA_MIRROR_INTERVAL` triggers auto-start functionality where the service will:
+> 1. **Import** all GitHub repositories on startup
+> 2. **Mirror** them to Gitea immediately
+> 3. **Continue syncing** at the configured interval
+> 4. **Auto-discover** new repositories
+> 5. **Clean up** deleted repositories (if configured)
+> 
+> This eliminates the need for manual button clicks - perfect for Docker/Kubernetes deployments!
+
+> **⏰ Scheduling with Cron Expressions**  
+> Use cron expressions in `SCHEDULE_INTERVAL` to run at specific times:
+> - `"0 2 * * *"` - Daily at 2 AM
+> - `"0 */6 * * *"` - Every 6 hours
+> - `"0 0 * * 0"` - Weekly on Sunday at midnight
+> - `"0 3 * * 1-5"` - Weekdays at 3 AM (Monday-Friday)
+> 
+> This is useful for optimizing bandwidth usage during low-activity periods.

+
+## Database Cleanup Configuration
+
+Configure automatic cleanup of old events and data.
+
+### Basic Settings
+
+| Variable | Description | Default | Options |
+|----------|-------------|---------|---------|
+| `CLEANUP_ENABLED` | Enable automatic cleanup | `false` | `true`, `false` |
+| `CLEANUP_RETENTION_DAYS` | Days to keep events | `7` | Number |
+
+### Repository Cleanup
+
+| Variable | Description | Default | Options |
+|----------|-------------|---------|---------|
+| `CLEANUP_DELETE_FROM_GITEA` | Delete repositories from Gitea | `false` | `true`, `false` |
+| `CLEANUP_DELETE_IF_NOT_IN_GITHUB` | Delete repos not found in GitHub (automatically enables cleanup) | `true` | `true`, `false` |

+| `CLEANUP_PROTECTED_REPOS` | Comma-separated list of protected repository names | - | Comma-separated strings |
+
+**🛡️ Safety Features (Backup Protection)**:
+- **GitHub Failures Don't Delete Backups**: Cleanup is automatically skipped if GitHub API returns errors (404, 403, connection issues)
+- **Archive Never Deletes**: The `archive` action ALWAYS preserves repository data, it never deletes
+- **Graceful Degradation**: If marking as archived fails, the repository remains fully accessible in Gitea
+- **The Purpose of Backups**: Your mirrors are preserved even when GitHub sources disappear - that's the whole point!
+
+**Archive Behavior (Aligned with Gitea API)**:
+- **Regular repositories**: Uses Gitea's native archive feature (PATCH `/repos/{owner}/{repo}` with `archived: true`)
+  - Makes repository read-only while preserving all data
+- **Mirror repositories**: Uses rename strategy (Gitea API returns 422 for archiving mirrors)
+  - Renamed with `[ARCHIVED]` prefix for clear identification
+  - Description updated with preservation notice and timestamp
+  - Mirror interval set to 8760h (1 year) to minimize sync attempts
+  - Repository remains fully accessible and cloneable
+
+### Execution Settings
+
+| Variable | Description | Default | Options |
+|----------|-------------|---------|---------|
+| `CLEANUP_BATCH_SIZE` | Number of items to process per batch | `10` | Number |
+| `CLEANUP_PAUSE_BETWEEN_DELETES` | Pause between deletions (milliseconds) | `2000` | Number |
+
+## Authentication Configuration
+
+Configure authentication methods and SSO.
+
+### Header Authentication (Reverse Proxy SSO)
+
+| Variable | Description | Default | Options |

+
+## Example Docker Compose Configuration
+
+Here's an example of how to use these environment variables in a `docker-compose.yml` file:
+
+```yaml
+version: '3.8'
+
+services:
+  gitea-mirror:
+    image: ghcr.io/raylabshq/gitea-mirror:latest
+    container_name: gitea-mirror
+    environment:
+      # Core Configuration
+      - NODE_ENV=production
+      - DATABASE_URL=file:data/gitea-mirror.db
+      - BETTER_AUTH_SECRET=your-secure-secret-here
+      # Primary access URL:
+      - BETTER_AUTH_URL=https://gitea-mirror.mydomain.tld
+      # Additional access URLs (local network + SSO providers):
+      # - BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://10.10.20.45:4321,http://192.168.1.100:4321,https://auth.provider.com
+      
+      # GitHub Configuration
+      - GITHUB_USERNAME=your-username
+      - GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_your_token_here
+      - PRIVATE_REPOSITORIES=true
+      - MIRROR_STARRED=true
+      - SKIP_FORKS=false
+      
+      # Gitea Configuration
+      - GITEA_URL=http://gitea:3000
+      - GITEA_USERNAME=admin
+      - GITEA_TOKEN=your-gitea-token
+      - GITEA_ORGANIZATION=github-mirrors
+      - GITEA_ORG_VISIBILITY=public
+      
+      # Mirror Options
+      - MIRROR_RELEASES=true
+      - MIRROR_WIKI=true
+      - MIRROR_METADATA=true
+      - MIRROR_ISSUES=true
+      - MIRROR_PULL_REQUESTS=true
+      
+      # Automation
+      - SCHEDULE_ENABLED=true
+      - SCHEDULE_INTERVAL=3600
+      
+      # Cleanup
+      - CLEANUP_ENABLED=true
+      - CLEANUP_RETENTION_DAYS=30
+    volumes:
+      - ./data:/app/data
+    ports:
+      - "4321:4321"
+```
+
+## Authentication URL Configuration
+
+### Multiple Access URLs
+
+To allow access to Gitea Mirror through multiple URLs (e.g., local IP and public domain), you need to configure both server and client settings:
+
+**Example Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Primary URL (required) - where the auth server is hosted
+BETTER_AUTH_URL=https://gitea-mirror.mydomain.tld
+
+# Client-side URL (optional) - tells the browser where to send auth requests
+# Set this to your primary domain when accessing from different origins
+PUBLIC_BETTER_AUTH_URL=https://gitea-mirror.mydomain.tld
+
+# Additional trusted origins (optional) - origins allowed to make auth requests
+BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://10.10.20.45:4321,http://192.168.1.100:4321
+```
+
+This setup allows you to:
+- Access via local network IP: `http://10.10.20.45:4321`
+- Access via public domain: `https://gitea-mirror.mydomain.tld`
+- Auth requests from the IP will be sent to the domain (via `PUBLIC_BETTER_AUTH_URL`)
+- Each origin requires separate login due to browser cookie isolation
+
+**Important:** When accessing from different origins (IP vs domain), you'll need to log in separately on each origin as cookies cannot be shared across different origins for security reasons.
+
+### Trusted Origins
+
+The `BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS` variable serves multiple purposes:
+
+1. **SSO/OIDC Providers**: When using external authentication providers (Google, Authentik, Okta)
+2. **Reverse Proxies**: When running behind nginx, Traefik, or other proxies
+3. **Cross-Origin Requests**: When the frontend and backend are on different domains
+4. **Development**: When testing from different URLs
+
+**Example Scenarios:**
+```bash
+# For Authentik SSO integration
+BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=https://authentik.company.com,https://auth.company.com
+
+# For reverse proxy setup
+BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=https://proxy.internal,https://public.domain.com
+
+# For development with multiple environments
+BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://localhost:3000,http://192.168.1.100:3000
+```
+
+**Important Notes:**
+- All URLs from `BETTER_AUTH_URL` are automatically trusted
+- URLs must be complete with protocol (http/https)
+- Multiple origins are separated by commas
+- No trailing slashes needed
+
+## Notes
+
+1. **First Run**: Environment variables are loaded when the container starts. The configuration is applied after the first user account is created.
+
+2. **UI Priority**: Manual changes made through the web UI will be preserved. Environment variables only set values for empty fields.
+
+3. **Token Security**: All tokens are encrypted before being stored in the database.
+
+4. **Auto-Enabling Features**: Certain environment variables automatically enable features when set:
+   - `GITEA_MIRROR_INTERVAL` - Automatically enables scheduled mirroring
+   - `CLEANUP_DELETE_IF_NOT_IN_GITHUB=true` - Automatically enables repository cleanup
+   - `SCHEDULE_INTERVAL` or `DELAY` - Automatically enables the scheduler
+
+5. **Backward Compatibility**: The `DELAY` variable is maintained for backward compatibility but `SCHEDULE_INTERVAL` is preferred.
+
+6. **Required Scopes**: The GitHub token requires the following scopes:
+   - `repo` (full control of private repositories)
+   - `admin:org` (read organization data)
+   - Additional scopes may be required for specific features
+
+For more examples and detailed configuration, see the `.env.example` file in the repository.

+# Local SSO Testing Guide
+
+This guide explains how to test SSO authentication locally with Gitea Mirror.
+
+## Option 1: Using Google OAuth (Recommended for Quick Testing)
+
+### Setup Steps:
+
+1. **Create a Google OAuth Application**
+   - Go to [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/)
+   - Create a new project or select existing
+   - Enable Google+ API
+   - Go to "Credentials" → "Create Credentials" → "OAuth client ID"
+   - Choose "Web application"
+   - Add authorized redirect URIs:
+     - `http://localhost:3000/api/auth/sso/callback/google-sso`
+     - `http://localhost:9876/api/auth/sso/callback/google-sso`
+
+2. **Configure in Gitea Mirror**
+   - Go to Configuration → Authentication tab
+   - Click "Add Provider"
+   - Select "OIDC / OAuth2"
+   - Fill in:
+     - Provider ID: `google-sso`
+     - Email Domain: `gmail.com` (or your domain)
+     - Issuer URL: `https://accounts.google.com`
+     - Click "Discover" to auto-fill endpoints
+     - Client ID: (from Google Console)
+     - Client Secret: (from Google Console)
+   - Save the provider
+
+   Note: Provider creation uses Better Auth's SSO registration under the hood. Do not call the legacy `POST /api/sso/providers` endpoint directly; it is deprecated and reserved for internal mirroring. Use the UI or Better Auth client/server registration APIs instead.
+
+## Option 2: Using Keycloak (Local Identity Provider)
+
+### Setup with Docker:
+
+```bash
+# Run Keycloak
+docker run -d --name keycloak \
+  -p 8080:8080 \
+  -e KEYCLOAK_ADMIN=admin \
+  -e KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin \
+  quay.io/keycloak/keycloak:latest start-dev
+
+# Access at http://localhost:8080
+# Login with admin/admin
+```
+
+### Configure Keycloak:
+
+1. Create a new realm (e.g., "gitea-mirror")
+2. Create a client:
+   - Client ID: `gitea-mirror`
+   - Client Protocol: `openid-connect`
+   - Access Type: `confidential`
+   - Valid Redirect URIs: `http://localhost:*/api/auth/sso/callback/keycloak`
+3. Get credentials from the "Credentials" tab
+4. Create test users in "Users" section
+
+### Configure in Gitea Mirror:
+
+- Provider ID: `keycloak`
+- Email Domain: `example.com`
+- Issuer URL: `http://localhost:8080/realms/gitea-mirror`
+- Client ID: `gitea-mirror`
+- Client Secret: (from Keycloak)
+- Click "Discover" to auto-fill endpoints
+
+## Option 3: Using Mock SSO Provider (Development)
+
+For testing without external dependencies, you can use a mock OIDC provider.
+
+### Using oidc-provider-example:
+
+```bash
+# Clone and run mock provider
+git clone https://github.com/panva/node-oidc-provider-example.git
+cd node-oidc-provider-example
+npm install
+npm start
+
+# Runs on http://localhost:3001
+```
+
+### Configure in Gitea Mirror:
+
+- Provider ID: `mock-provider`
+- Email Domain: `test.com`
+- Issuer URL: `http://localhost:3001`
+- Client ID: `foo`
+- Client Secret: `bar`
+- Authorization Endpoint: `http://localhost:3001/auth`
+- Token Endpoint: `http://localhost:3001/token`
+
+## Testing the SSO Flow
+
+1. **Logout** from Gitea Mirror if logged in
+2. Go to `/login`
+3. Click on the **SSO** tab
+4. Either:
+   - Click the provider button (e.g., "Sign in with gmail.com")
+   - Or enter your email and click "Continue with SSO"
+5. You'll be redirected to the identity provider
+6. Complete authentication
+7. You'll be redirected back and logged in
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues:
+
+1. **"Invalid origin" error**
+   - Check that `trustedOrigins` in `/src/lib/auth.ts` includes your dev URL
+   - Restart the dev server after changes
+
+2. **Provider not showing in login**
+   - Check browser console for errors
+   - Verify provider was saved successfully (via UI)
+   - Check `/api/sso/providers` (or `/api/sso/providers/public`) returns your providers. This list mirrors what was registered with Better Auth.
+
+3. **Redirect URI mismatch**
+   - Ensure the redirect URI in your OAuth app matches exactly:
+     `http://localhost:PORT/api/auth/sso/callback/PROVIDER_ID`
+
+4. **CORS errors**
+   - Add your identity provider domain to CORS allowed origins if needed
+
+### Debug Mode:
+
+Enable debug logging by setting environment variable:
+```bash
+DEBUG=better-auth:* bun run dev
+```
+
+## Testing Different Scenarios
+
+### 1. New User Registration
+- Use an email not in the system
+- SSO should create a new user automatically
+
+### 2. Existing User Login
+- Create a user with email/password first
+- Login with SSO using same email
+- Should link to existing account
+
+### 3. Domain-based Routing
+- Configure multiple providers with different domains
+- Test that entering email routes to correct provider
+
+### 4. Organization Provisioning
+- Set organizationId on provider
+- Test that users are added to correct organization
+
+## Security Testing
+
+1. **Token Expiration**
+   - Wait for session to expire
+   - Test refresh flow
+
+2. **Invalid State**
+   - Modify state parameter in callback
+   - Should reject authentication
+
+3. **PKCE Flow**
+   - Enable/disable PKCE
+   - Verify code challenge works
+
+## Using with Better Auth CLI
+
+Better Auth provides CLI tools for testing:
+
+```bash
+# List registered providers
+bun run auth:providers list
+
+# Test provider configuration
+bun run auth:providers test google-sso
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+For production-like testing:
+
+```env
+BETTER_AUTH_URL=http://localhost:3000
+BETTER_AUTH_SECRET=your-secret-key
+```
+
+## Next Steps
+
+After successful SSO setup:
+1. Test user attribute mapping
+2. Configure role-based access
+3. Set up SAML if needed
+4. Test with your organization's actual IdP
