feat(gui,docs): explain the admin token where it is asked for - #3493

When OPENCODEX_ADMIN_AUTH_TOKEN is set, initializeManagementAuthState returns before resolving or creating admin-api-token, so the new help incorrectly tells these remote-dashboard users that the proxy wrote a file on first start. This can send them searching for a nonexistent file; describe the file-backed token as the alternative used only when the environment variable is unset.

For a user following this advice to validate their setup, ocx doctor does not report whether the admin credential is present. Its only admin-token inspection is dataPlaneCredentialCollisionCheck, which reports collision or distinctness and, when no data-plane token exists, returns only that there is nothing to compare. Remove this claim or add an actual presence-only diagnostic so the documented command provides the promised confirmation.

When the prompt is legitimate — a non-loopback bind — it was still a bare password box titled with an environment variable name. #3353 is a user who met it after upgrading to 2.40.0, assumed a config-loss bug, and had to have an LLM read the codebase to learn the token was a new security feature and where to get one. The dialog now says what the credential is (the management admin token, not a provider API key), where the proxy already wrote it, and that the environment variable overrides it, then links a docs anchor that spells it out. Copy is added to all nine locales; the key-parity test covers the set. The guide gains that anchor. It already said a remote dashboard needs the token and named the file, but never how to read it — so it is now explicit: start the proxy once to mint it, `cat` the file, honour `OPENCODEX_HOME`, and do not go looking for a CLI that prints it, because `ocx doctor` deliberately reports presence without ever revealing a value. A second section covers the case a local user actually hits, where the address is the problem rather than the credential. The link matches house style for in-app docs links (`target="_blank"`, `rel="noreferrer"`, accent colour), and the regression asserts the href, the rel, and that the help text names both the file and the environment variable.

Scope the token-discovery wording to the active configuration.
The page mixes default file-backed behavior with environment overrides and uses “CLI” too broadly. This can send users to the wrong file or make the retrieval instructions appear contradictory.

Proposed wording
-The proxy generates the token for you the first time it starts. It is not printed anywhere,
-by design, so read it from the file:
+When OPENCODEX_ADMIN_AUTH_TOKEN is not set, the proxy generates the token on first start.
+The proxy and ocx commands do not print it, so read it from the file:
-If OPENCODEX_HOME is set, the file lives at $OPENCODEX_HOME/admin-api-token instead. On
-Windows that is %USERPROFILE%\.opencodex/admin-api-token.
+If OPENCODEX_HOME is set, use $OPENCODEX_HOME/admin-api-token
+(%OPENCODEX_HOME%\admin-api-token on Windows). Otherwise, use
+~/.opencodex/admin-api-token (%USERPROFILE%\.opencodex\admin-api-token on Windows).
-There is no CLI command that prints the token.
+There is no ocx command that prints the token.The precedence contract comes from src/lib/admin-secrets.ts:24-26. As per path instructions, keep commands, paths, configuration keys, and URLs synchronized with the repository.

Summary
The sibling PRs stop a local user ever seeing the admin-token prompt. This one fixes the prompt for the operator who legitimately does: a non-loopback bind was still met with a bare password box titled with an environment variable name.
#3353 is that user. They upgraded to 2.40.0, were blocked from the dashboard, assumed a config-loss bug, and had to have an LLM read the codebase before learning the token was a new security feature and where to obtain one.
The dialog now states what the credential is (the management admin token, not a provider API key), where the proxy already wrote it, and that the environment variable overrides it — then links a docs anchor that spells it out. Copy is added to all nine locales; the existing key-parity test covers the set.
The guide gains that anchor. It already said a remote dashboard needs the token and named the file, but never how to read it, so it is now explicit: start the proxy once to mint it,
catthe file, honourOPENCODEX_HOME, and do not go looking for a CLI that prints it —ocx doctordeliberately reports presence without ever revealing a value. A second section covers the case a local user actually hits, where the address is the problem rather than the credential.The link follows house style for in-app docs links (
