 ### Added
 
+- You can now change your own password. Your name in the top right opens a new
+  Account page, whose Change password button takes you to the sign-in service
+  and brings you back. It asks you to sign in once more on the way, which is
+  what proves it is you. Forgetting a password is still not self-service, so the
+  page says to ask a platform administrator instead.

+// business rather than ours. Hand-building the authorize URL instead would put
+// us in charge of all three and fail Auth.js's own callback checks.
+//
+// The trip ends back at `returnTo` either way. On success Keycloak returns to
+// the callback with a fresh code and `kc_action_status=success`; on Cancel it
+// returns the same way with `cancelled`. Both complete the flow and mint a new
+// session, so there is no error path — a cancelled password change is
