## Summary
- remove the Pennant-based `open-banking` flag and middleware gating so
open banking is always available for authenticated users
- simplify landing, onboarding, settings, and subscription flows to use
always-on open-banking behavior and remove stale frontend/shared flag
plumbing
- update open-banking tests and purge stored `open-banking` Pennant rows
## Testing
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/InstitutionControllerTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/BinanceControllerTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/IndexaCapitalControllerTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/BitpandaControllerTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/AuthorizationControllerTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/ConnectionControllerTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/AccountMappingTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/OpenBankingFeatureFlagTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/SyncRetryAndLoggingTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact tests/Feature/SubscriptionTest.php`
- `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/WelcomeBanksOrderingTest.php`
- `vendor/bin/pint --dirty --format agent`
## Notes
- `php artisan pennant:purge open-banking` was run to remove stale
stored values
- `php artisan test --compact tests/Browser/OnboardingFlowTest.php`
still has one unrelated real-estate onboarding browser failure (`it
creates a real estate account during onboarding when feature is
enabled`)
## Why
### Problem
When API tokens for Indexa Capital, Binance, or Bitpanda expire or are
revoked, syncs fail silently with 401/403 errors. Users have no way to
replace their credentials without disconnecting and recreating the
entire connection (losing account mappings and history).
## What
### Changes
- **Auth failure email notification**: on the final retry attempt (3rd
of 3), if a sync job fails with 401/403 for an API-key provider, an
email is sent to the user with a link to the connections settings page
- **Update credentials endpoint**: `PATCH
/settings/connections/{connection}/credentials` validates new
credentials against the provider API before saving, then triggers a sync
- **Update credentials dialog**: provider-specific form (API token for
Indexa/Bitpanda, API key + secret for Binance) shown via an "Update
Credentials" button in the error banner and dropdown menu
- **Mailable**: `BankingConnectionAuthFailedEmail` follows existing
patterns (queued, rate-limited, Markdown template)
- **Form request**: `UpdateConnectionCredentialsRequest` with dynamic
validation rules per provider and authorization check

## Verification
### Tests
- **12 new tests** across 2 test files, all passing:
- `SyncBankingConnectionJobTest`: 5 tests covering email sent on final
retry (Indexa 401, Binance 403), not sent before final retry, not sent
for non-auth errors, not sent for EnableBanking
- `ConnectionControllerTest`: 7 tests covering valid credential update
for each provider, invalid credentials, EnableBanking rejection,
authorization, feature flag, required field validation
- Full OpenBanking test suite: **145 tests, 473 assertions** passing
