Research direction

Start by comparing the existing /api/categories and /api/category/_cid endpoints and their handlers. Clarify the expected user and group inputs, permissions, response shape, and whether one or separate endpoints are needed; done means the agreed API returns the categories belonging to the requested user or group.
