Feature: User Profile Settings

Status

Draft

Goal

Allow authenticated users to manage the profile information shown inside the application shell and workspace activity.

User Stories

• As an authenticated user, I want to update my name, alias, email, and portrait so that other workspace members see accurate profile information.

Frontend Areas

• /app/settings/user-information
• frontend/src/features/user-profile/

Backend Modules

• Identity

Domain Rules

• Profile updates apply only to the authenticated user.
• Portrait uploads flow through the existing blob storage abstraction.
• Email changes use the identity module endpoint and should remain auditable through backend identity behavior.

Done When

• User information settings show editable name, alias, and email fields.
• Portrait upload remains available from the settings page.
• Successful updates refresh the user profile state used by the app shell.
