config.py had no Schwab fields at all, so the keys listed in .env.example were
being silently dropped by extra="ignore". They exist now, blank, and nothing
reads them while live_source is yahoo.
The token path moves under data/, which is the Coolify persistent volume. Left
at the repository root it would vanish on every rebuild, and re-authenticating
is an interactive browser flow, not something a deploy can do for itself.
scripts/check_schwab.py answers empirically what the app is entitled to rather
than inferring it from documentation: whether the credentials authenticate,
whether /ES quotes return (futures market data is a separate entitlement from
equities), and whether the streamer bootstrap responds.
That last one is the decision. StreamClient.login() reads
/trader/v1/userPreference for its socket URL and credentials, and that path
belongs to the Accounts and Trading product — so an app registered for Market
Data Production alone cannot stream, and CHART_FUTURES is unreachable until the
app adds it. The script reports which of the two paths is open instead of
leaving it to be discovered halfway through an implementation.
