Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the server-side authentication handling and the client AJAX entry point, then trace how unauthenticated requests currently become 500 errors. Done means unauthenticated server requests redirect properly and client AJAX handles those redirects consistently.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

We should make all server-side code return proper redirects if not authenticated, rather than 500 errors.

We should centralize client AJAX to handle those redirects
