Authenticate test users through the browser-facing proxy and wait for the accepted notification response, avoiding a direct API-to-browser session handoff race without changing CSRF or rate limits.

Summary
Why
The #226 Cypress logs show the friend acceptance succeeds with HTTP 200, but immediately after loginAs(requester) the browser API requests for me and notifications return 403. The test had logged in through port 8080 while the app ran through port 3000, leaving a direct-API-to-browser session handoff race. This makes the test use the same proxied origin as the browser.
