Taken and reserved names, and an empty email, are said from one module by every way an account or org is made #5715

The three sentences — "That username is taken.", "That name is reserved." and "An email address, please." — now live in one new module, src/actions/signup_words.ts, as USERNAME_TAKEN, NAME_RESERVED and EMAIL_WANTED. #5592 has not landed, so there was no existing module to add them to.

What moved: each of the seven files named in the issue (src/actions/first_admin.ts, src/web/pages/claim.ts, crew.ts, everyday.ts, org.ts, signup-passkey.ts, site.ts) imports the constants in place of its typed-out copy. The only lines changed are the ones the sentences were on, plus one import line per file, so the wording is identical. grep -rn for each sentence under src/ now finds only the module. src/http/mcp.ts and src/http/api.ts were not touched.

Test: the new test/name-words.test.ts checks that the module still holds the exact wording, and that each of the seven files contains none of the literals and imports signup_words.ts. Typing a copy back into any of them makes it fail.

Checks run:

• test/name-words.test.ts passes.
• everyday, claim-link, reserved-names, and the first-admin, crew, org, signup, passkey, site and claim suites: 649 pass, 2 fail, 1 error.

- The crew-interrupted failure ("a young lock that blocks checkout is recovered by a fresh clone") also fails on main without this change. - The crew-sandbox-real error is the sandbox missing ripgrep.

• bun x tsc --noEmit is clean.
• bun scripts/design-lint.ts is clean.

Taken and reserved usernames, and an empty email, now take their wording from src/actions/signup_words.ts. The web passkey sign-up (src/web/pages/signup-passkey.ts) uses USERNAME_TAKEN and NAME_RESERVED from there for its username_taken and username_reserved refusals.

This push merges main. The only conflict was the import block in src/web/pages/signup-passkey.ts: this branch added the signup_words.ts import, and main added PASSKEY_EXPIRED, PASSKEY_REJECTED and PASSKEY_TAKEN from src/web/passkey-words.ts. The file uses both, so both imports stay and nothing else changed.

The type check is clean. All signup, passkey, *-words and TUI signup tests pass (258 tests); the rest of the suite was left to the forge's check.

To try it: on the preview, start a passkey sign-up with a username that already exists or is reserved, and the refusal shows the wording from signup_words.ts.

The sign-up refusal sentences now live in src/actions/signup_words.ts: "That username is taken." (USERNAME_TAKEN), "That name is reserved." (NAME_RESERVED), and "An email address, please." (EMAIL_WANTED). The first-admin door, the sign-up, claim and everyday pages, and passkey sign-up all read them from there instead of each writing its own copy.

This push also merges main, where #5608 had created the same file for two other sentences: INVALID_USERNAME_MESSAGE (a malformed username) and EMAIL_TAKEN_MESSAGE (an email that already has an account). The merged module keeps all five sentences, and every file that conflicted uses each one from there. No hard-coded copy of any of them is left under src/, and the wording shown to people is unchanged.

The type check is clean. The signup, passkey, claim, first-admin and TUI signup tests and main's new test/signup-words.test.ts pass (301 tests), with no test changed; the rest of the suite was left to the forge's check.

To try it: on the preview, sign up with a username that already exists, a reserved name, or an email that already has an account. Each refusal reads as before.
