quak (https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/quak) logs in to an Ente account with quak login. When the login fails, the reason it prints is only an HTTP status code:
wrong password: Login failed: HTTP 401
an email with no account on the server: Login failed: HTTP 404
A user cannot tell from these lines whether the password or the email is wrong.
Question: should quak login say in words why a login failed?
Named causes: a refused password check prints Login failed: incorrect email or password. An email the server does not know prints Login failed: no account with this email on the server. Other failures print as now, and the exit status stays 1.
As now: keep the bare HTTP status.
Recommendation: Named causes. It is two messages and changes no other behaviour.
Model: opus-5-5
