The documented path for connecting Hermes Desktop to a remote backend was `--insecure` + a pinned HERMES_DASHBOARD_SESSION_TOKEN — an unauthenticated bind plus a copy-pasted token. Replace it everywhere with the bundled username/password dashboard-auth provider: set HERMES_DASHBOARD_BASIC_AUTH_*, run `hermes dashboard --host 0.0.0.0` (the non-loopback bind engages the auth gate), and Sign in from the app. - desktop.md: rewrite 'Connecting to a remote backend' for the user/pass + Sign in flow - web-dashboard.md: rewrite both remote-backend sections (overview + dedicated); reframe the auth-gate section so --insecure is a discouraged escape hatch, not a co-equal use case; drop the removed --tui flag from the systemd example - environment-variables.md: lead with HERMES_DASHBOARD_BASIC_AUTH_*; drop the session-token / HERMES_DESKTOP_REMOTE_TOKEN remote-connect entries - docker.md: mention the username/password provider as the simplest gate provider

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.
Diagram Linting
CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
