Family invite flow uses Sign Up / Sign In landing, not a magic link at accept time

Decision

When a user clicks a family invite link, they see a Sign Up / Sign In landing showing who invited them — no magic link, no password-set step at invite-accept time.

Why

Removes complexity of a separate password-set step. Invite link is a routing signal, not an auth mechanism.

Impact

• When a user clicks a family invite link, they see who invited them and can either create a new Chitragupt account or sign in to an existing one.
• After auth, they are automatically added to the household.
• No password field at invite-accept time.
• .context/wiki/surfaces/* row updated from "Magic link accept" to "Family invite landing".
• Affects tier-pro-family (the family workspace tier).

Status

Active.
