How It Works

Mode	Registration	Pod Creation
Open (default)	Anyone can register	Anyone can create pods
Invite-only	Requires valid invite code	Via registration only

When --invite-only is enabled:

• The registration page shows an “Invite Code” field
• Invalid or expired codes are rejected with an error
• Each use decrements the invite’s remaining uses
• Depleted invites are automatically removed

Invite codes are stored in .server/invites.json in your data directory.
