Sign-up stays closed (invitations only), so a new server's first login could only be made over SSH with admin create-root, and an invitation needs a group, which needs a login. While no administrator exists, GET /clientapi/user/setup says so and POST takes a SetupForm (login, password, first persona): the login is made the administrator with its persona, and setup closes for good (owner decision 2026-10-16: first come, first served, no setup code). ServerSetup is one document with a fixed id, so the first request to insert it wins and two setups at once make one administrator. A setup that fails before its login is made gives the claim back; one that named an administrator never does, whoever is demoted or deleted later, and the CLI stays the way back. admin promote and create-root --admin seal it too, migration _018 seals a server that already had an administrator, and no backup holds it nor does a restore drop it, since a restore tombstones an administrator made after the backup. Public sign-up, NodeInfo and the instance API are unchanged. RootUser.SetAdmin is the one place an administrator is made (with isModerator, which IsAdminPolicy asks for), and the invitation endpoints share InsertPersona with setup. Tests: ServerSetupTests on the invitations-only host (setup, the race, failed setups, sign-up still closed, the CLI's seal) and the migration; the whole suite passes (962). In the pasture, decePub's setup and invitation pages pass end to end. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
