+// for auth routes and images for the avatar route — no built-in HTML rendering
+// anywhere — so this CSP is unconditionally safe and gives the auth origin
+// defense-in-depth against any future trust-boundary regression that might emit a
+// renderable body.
+//
+//   - Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'none'; sandbox — blocks inline scripts
+//     and event handlers even if a body is ever served as HTML by mistake; the
+//     sandbox directive additionally isolates any rendered document from this origin.
+//   - X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff — prevents browsers from MIME-overriding the
+//     declared Content-Type to a more dangerous one.
+//
+// The avatar Handler additionally sets Content-Disposition: inline; filename="avatar"
+// inside itself, so direct callers (tests, custom mounts) still get the full header
+// set without going through this wrapper.
+//
+// CONSUMER NOTE: custom providers added via Service.AddCustomHandler / AddProvider
+// are also wrapped. If a custom provider renders HTML (login forms, JS-based flows,
+// the dev_provider's login page, etc.), the strict CSP will block inline scripts and
+// event handlers on those pages. Such providers should either (a) override the CSP
+// for their own response by calling w.Header().Set("Content-Security-Policy", ...)
+// before writing — Set replaces the wrapper's value — or (b) move any required
+// scripts/styles to external files served from 'self'.
