Summary

Removes a hard-coded Gmail app password value from the local setup template and getting-started guide.

Changes

  • Replaced the concrete GMAIL_APP_PASSWORD value in .env.template with a blank placeholder
  • Clarified in the getting-started guide that GMAIL_APP_PASSWORD is optional and only needed for the in-app "Report Issue" email flow

Why

A setup template and public-facing docs should not ship with a concrete secret-like value. This keeps local setup clearer and reduces the risk of users treating that value as a valid shared credential.

Testing

  • Verified the hard-coded value no longer appears in .env.template
  • Verified the same value no longer appears in user_guide/01_getting_started.md
  • No automated tests were added or run because this repo does not currently include an automated test suite for documentation/template changes
