Thank you for the contribution! Looks good to me so far. We will have to add it to src/node/cli.ts as well.

The . syntax is intriguing, but I want to say we call it auth-cookie-max-age for now.

Oh wait is 0 the right default? This will delete the cookie instantly, I think? We may want -1.

Hmm actually zero or negative immediately expires the cookie it seems.

Should it just be undefined? Also we may want ?? instead of || in case someone does explicitly set it to zero for some reason.
