neoircd no longer compiles any exported name in internal/db that only tests call. Those names gave a caller raw SQL and a weaker password hash.
internal/db/testing.go and SetBcryptCost are gone. Passwords always hash at bcrypt.DefaultCost.
GetDB, GetOrCreateChannel, JoinChannel and HasChannelInvite moved to internal/db/export_test.go.
GetClientHostInfo and its not-found test are deleted. GetLatestClientForSession covers the check that remained.
Tests in other packages build the database with db.New, and run raw SQL through the new dbtest.Exec.
The internal/ircserver tests join a peer to a channel with CreateOrJoinChannel.
Watch out: TestStopReturnsWhileCleanupIsStuck holds a write transaction on a second connection. BEGIN EXCLUSIVE looks equivalent but is not. The driver's BEGIN does not wait on that lock, so the cleanup fails at once and the test proves nothing.
Disclosures:
Judgement call: the definition of done also covers GetOrCreateChannel, JoinChannel, HasChannelInvite and GetClientHostInfo, which the issue does not name. Only tests called them.
Test time: the test stage of make test takes about 52 seconds and internal/handlers about 8. Handler tests that need a password only to log in store one hashed at bcrypt.MinCost, through the setPassword test helper. aliceWithHTTPClient in internal/ircserver/relay_test.go stores one the same way. Tests of PASS itself hash at the real cost.
Left in place: nothing calls GetSessionChannelIDs, not even a test. That is now #254.

Rework needed before review. My plan on #248 (comment) was wrong to say the real password cost touches few hashes. It takes the test stage past the 60-second cap in REPO_POLICIES.md. The ban on a new setting stands, and the slowdown has to go.
The rework changes exactly this, in test files only:
In internal/handlers/api_test.go, add a setPassword(nick string) helper on testServer. It hashes testPassword with bcrypt.GenerateFromPassword at bcrypt.MinCost and stores it with dbtest.Exec: UPDATE sessions SET password_hash = '...' WHERE nick = '...'. A login compares against the cost stored in the hash, so it is fast.
Each test there that sends PASS only so that it can log in calls the helper instead. Tests whose subject is PASS itself keep sending it, at the real cost.
Do the same in internal/ircserver/server_test.go only if a test there sends PASS just to log in.
Update the PR body's test time line to what is now true.
It leaves alone: the production code in this PR, dbtest.Exec, and everything else in the diff. No new setting and no new exported name in internal/db.
The next review checks: the test stage is under 60 seconds and internal/handlers is back near its former time; the tests of PASS itself still go through the real hash; the rest of the issue's definition of done.

Handler tests that send PASS only to log in now call setPassword in internal/handlers/api_test.go. TestPassCommand and TestPassCommandLength still send PASS at the real cost. The PR body's test time line is updated.

internal/ircserver/server_test.go is unchanged, because each of its PASS tests is about PASS.
Left in place: aliceWithHTTPClient in internal/ircserver/relay_test.go also sends PASS only to log in. The rework comment does not name that file.

internal/ircserver/relay_test.go:597, aliceWithHTTPClient. This helper sends PASS only so that its later LoginUser call succeeds. With SetBcryptCost gone, that PASS hashes at bcrypt.DefaultCost. The server reads nothing from the connection while it hashes, and the test's next read allows 5 seconds. When the host is busy the hash can take longer, so tests that use this helper, such as TestRelayOwnSessionOnce, can fail at random. With the tests limited to 4 threads, TestRelayOwnSessionOnce failed on every run, and on next it did not.
Acceptable: the helper stops sending PASS and stores a password hashed at bcrypt.MinCost, as setPassword does in internal/handlers/api_test.go, and its doc comment says so. Do not lengthen the test's wait. Tests whose subject is PASS keep the real cost.
Judgement call: the rework comment does not name this file, and the worker's comment discloses leaving it. I count it as a defect because a test that fails at random makes next red at random, as #205 records.
Unverified: at normal host load I saw this failure once, in a verbose run of a scratch copy whose other changes do not touch this path. I did not reproduce it at normal load on the unmodified head.

The server binary carried exported names that only tests call, including
raw SQL access and a way to weaken the password hash.
Delete testing.go, GetDB and SetBcryptCost from the shipped code, so
passwords always hash at bcrypt.DefaultCost. Move GetDB, GetOrCreateChannel,
JoinChannel and HasChannelInvite into export_test.go. Delete
GetClientHostInfo, whose remaining check GetLatestClientForSession covers.
Tests in other packages now build the database with db.New and run raw SQL
through dbtest.Exec. Handler tests and the relay tests' aliceWithHTTPClient
helper need a password only to log in, so they store one hashed at
bcrypt.MinCost. Tests of PASS itself keep the real cost.
Model: opus-5-5
aliceWithHTTPClient in internal/ircserver/relay_test.go no longer sends PASS. It stores a password hashed at bcrypt.MinCost through dbtest.Exec, as setPassword does, and its doc comment says so. No test's wait changed, and tests whose subject is PASS keep the real cost. The PR body's test time line now names this helper and gives the measured internal/handlers time.
Judgement call: I was asked to update the PR body's "Left in place" line because it is no longer true, but I kept it. That line is about GetSessionChannelIDs, which still has no caller, and #254 is still open. The "Left in place" line about this helper is in the earlier worker comment, not in the body.
Unverified: I did not repeat the review's run limited to 4 threads, because make has no setting for it.
