- operator_users router now depends on _require_auth_enabled, which raises 404 when OPERATOR_AUTH_ENABLED is false — prevents world-open pre-seeding of a superadmin while the flag is off (the default). Flag is read as a live module attribute (operator_auth.OPERATOR_AUTH_ENABLED) so monkeypatching in tests and a runtime flip both take effect. - operator_gate passes OPTIONS requests through immediately before the exempt- path check, so CORS preflight reaches CORSMiddleware rather than being 303/401'd by the gate. - Two new tests: test_admin_surface_404s_when_flag_off (test_operator_users) and test_options_preflight_passes_through_gate (test_operator_gate). Full suite: 90 passed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
