The CLI create-user scripts hit environment issues on the VPS (missing
ts-node, missing node_modules on the host). A /signup page sidesteps
that entirely since it runs inside the already-working Next.js server.
It's a one-time-use setup form: the server action refuses to run once
any user already exists, so it's safe to leave in place, though it can
be deleted after the first account is created.

ts-node is a devDependency and isn't available after a production
install; scripts/create-user.js only needs packages already in
dependencies so it runs on the deployed server.
