v0.1.73 — /:company Route Redirect Behaviour

Status: Spec Drift Identified — This release flags a deviation from the intended routing behaviour for the /:company entry point. A fix is in progress.

What Should Happen

The /:company route is the branded entry point for each agency's portal. Its intended behaviour is:

1. Verify the company identifier from the URL
2. Apply the agency's theme (colours, logo, branding)
3. If the user is unauthenticated → show the login screen
4. If the user is authenticated → redirect to /:company/accounts/

This logic is defined in CompanySpecificHomeView and ensures that returning logged-in users land directly in their accounts list without any extra navigation.

What Is Currently Happening

As of v0.1.73, the /:company route renders a welcome dashboard with quick-access cards for authenticated users instead of redirecting them to /:company/accounts/.

Scenario	Expected	Actual
Unauthenticated user visits /{company}	Login screen shown	✅ Correct (handled by company layout)
Authenticated user visits /{company}	Redirect to /{company}/accounts/	❌ Welcome dashboard rendered

Why This Matters

• Authenticated users see an unintended dashboard instead of their accounts list, breaking the expected post-login flow.
• The extra page adds unnecessary friction — users must navigate an additional step to reach their account information.
• The behaviour diverges from the CompanySpecificHomeView contract that other parts of the application depend on.

Planned Fix

Add an authenticated redirect inside the /:company page component so that any logged-in user is immediately sent to /:company/accounts/. The unauthenticated case (redirect to /sign-in) is already handled correctly by the company layout and does not need to change.

// Intended routing logic for /:company
if (!authenticated) {
  // Company layout already handles → /sign-in
} else {
  // Redirect → /:company/accounts/
}
