TriliumNotes Web Clipper Lacks TOTP Authentication Support

When a TriliumNext server instance has TOTP two-factor authentication enabled, the Web Clipper extension has no mechanism to accept or submit a TOTP code during login, causing authentication to fail entirely. Users who have secured their self-hosted instance with TOTP cannot use the Web Clipper, effectively forcing a choice between browser extension functionality and basic account security. This is a missing authentication flow in the extension rather than a configuration issue on the user's end.
