-# Enterprise Playwright suite — exercises premium-key gated features (audit,

-#
-#   - PRs that touch proprietary / premium / SSO compose / enterprise tests
-#     (driven by build.yml via workflow_call, path-filtered against
-#     .github/config/.files.yaml `proprietary`),
-#   - every push to main (post-merge safety net),
-#   - on a nightly cron schedule (catches Keycloak image drift, license
-#     expiry, upstream proprietary changes),
-#   - manual workflow_dispatch.

-# Gradle invocation strategy:
-#   - Linux/macOS: `./gradlew` runs the POSIX shell wrapper natively.
-#   - Windows:     `cmd /c ".\gradlew.bat ..."` invokes the .bat wrapper through
-#                  cmd.exe so it inherits the user's Windows-side `JAVA_HOME`
-#                  and PATH. Routing through `bash gradlew` on Windows ends up
-#                  under WSL or Git-Bash, neither of which inherits
-#                  Adoptium/Temurin's default Windows-only Java env - gradlew
-#                  then errors with "JAVA_HOME is not set and no 'java' command
-#                  could be found".
-#
-#                  The entire `.\gradlew.bat ...` payload is double-quoted so
-#                  the leading `.\` survives mvdan/sh's POSIX backslash
-#                  stripping; cmd.exe also requires `.\` (not bare `gradlew.bat`)
-#                  because modern Windows excludes cwd from cmd's search path.

-This file provides guidance to AI Agents when working with code in this repository.
-
-## Taskfile (Recommended)
-
-This project uses [Task](https://taskfile.dev/) as a unified command runner. All build, dev, test, lint, and docker commands can be run from the repo root via `task <command>`. Run `task --list` to see all available commands.
-
-Task `desc:` fields should describe **what** the task does, not **how** it does it. Keep them generic and stable: don't reference implementation details like aliases, internal helpers, mode flags, or which other task delegates to which. The description is for users picking a command from `task --list`, not a changelog of refactors.
-
-### Quick Reference
- `task install` — install all dependencies
- `task dev` — start backend + frontend concurrently
- `task dev:all` — start backend + frontend + engine concurrently
- `task build` — build all components
- `task test` — run all tests (backend + frontend + engine)
- `task lint` — run all linters
- `task format` — auto-fix formatting across all components
- `task check` — full quality gate (lint + typecheck + test)
- `task clean` — clean all build artifacts
- `task docker:build` — build standard Docker image
- `task docker:up` — start Docker compose stack
-
-## Common Development Commands
-
-### Build and Test
- **Build project**: `task build`
- **Run backend locally**: `task backend:dev`
- **Run all tests**: `task test` (or individually: `task backend:test`, `task frontend:test`, `task engine:test`)
- **Docker integration tests**: `./test.sh` (builds all Docker variants and runs comprehensive tests)
- **Code formatting**: `task format` (or `task backend:format` for Java only)
- **Full quality gate**: `task check` (runs lint + typecheck + test across all components)
-
-After modifying any files in the project, you must run the relevant `task check` command that covers that area of the code. For example, when editing frontend files run `task frontend:check`; for Python engine files run `task engine:check`; for Java backend files run `task backend:check`.
-
-### Docker Development
- **Build standard**: `task docker:build` (or `docker build -t stirling-pdf -f docker/embedded/Dockerfile .`)
- **Build fat version**: `task docker:build:fat`
- **Build ultra-lite**: `task docker:build:ultra-lite`
- **Start compose stack**: `task docker:up` (or `task docker:up:fat`, `task docker:up:ultra-lite`)
- **Stop compose stack**: `task docker:down`
- **View logs**: `task docker:logs`
- **Example compose files**: Located in `exampleYmlFiles/` directory
-
-### Security Mode Development
-Set `DOCKER_ENABLE_SECURITY=true` environment variable to enable security features during development. This is required for testing the full version locally.
-
-### Python Development (AI Engine)
-
-The engine is a Python reasoning service for Stirling: it plans and interprets work, but it does not own durable state, and it does not execute Stirling PDF operations directly. Keep the service narrow: typed contracts in, typed contracts out, with AI only where it adds reasoning value. The frontend calls the Python engine via Java as a proxy.
-
-#### Python Commands
-All engine commands run from the repo root using Task:
- `task engine:check` — run all checks (typecheck + lint + format-check + test)
- `task engine:fix` — auto-fix lint + formatting
- `task engine:install` — install Python dependencies via uv
- `task engine:dev` — start FastAPI with hot reload (localhost:5001)
- `task engine:test` — run pytest
- `task engine:lint` — run ruff linting
- `task engine:typecheck` — run pyright
- `task engine:format` — format code with ruff
- `task engine:tool-models` — generate `tool_models.py` from the Java OpenAPI spec
-
-The project structure is defined in `engine/pyproject.toml`. Any new dependencies should be listed there, followed by running `task engine:install`.
-
-#### Python Code Style
- Keep `task engine:check` passing.
- Use modern Python when it improves clarity.
- Prefer explicit names to cleverness.
- Avoid nested functions and nested classes unless the language construct requires them.
- Prefer composition to inheritance when combining concepts.
- Avoid speculative abstractions. Add a layer only when it removes real duplication or clarifies lifecycle.
- Add comments sparingly and only when they explain non-obvious intent.
-
-#### Python Typing and Models
- Deserialize into Pydantic models as early as possible.
- Serialize from Pydantic models as late as possible.
- Do not pass raw `dict[str, Any]` or `dict[str, object]` across important boundaries when a typed model can exist instead.
- Avoid `Any` wherever possible.
- Avoid `cast()` wherever possible (reconsider the structure first).
- All shared models should subclass `stirling.models.ApiModel` so the service behaves consistently.
- Do not use string literals for any type annotations, including `cast()`.
-
-#### Python Configuration
- Keep application-owned configuration in `stirling.config`.
- Only add `STIRLING_*` environment variables that the engine itself truly owns.
- Do not mirror third-party provider environment variables unless the engine is actually interpreting them.
- Let `pydantic-ai` own provider authentication configuration when possible.
-
-#### Python Architecture
-
-**Package roles:**
- `stirling.contracts`: request/response models and shared typed workflow contracts. If a shape crosses a module or service boundary, it probably belongs here.
- `stirling.models`: shared model primitives and generated tool models.
- `stirling.agents`: reasoning modules for individual capabilities.
- `stirling.api`: HTTP layer, dependency access, and app startup wiring.
- `stirling.services`: shared runtime and non-AI infrastructure.
- `stirling.config`: application-owned settings.
-
-**Source of truth:**
- `stirling.models.tool_models` is the source of truth for operation IDs and parameter models.
- Do not duplicate operation lists if they can be derived from `tool_models.OPERATIONS`.
- Do not hand-maintain parallel parameter schemas when the generated tool models already define them.
- If a tool ID must match a parameter model, validate that relationship explicitly in code.
-
-**Boundaries:**
- Keep the API layer thin. Route modules should bind requests, resolve dependencies, and call agents or services. They should not contain business logic.
- Keep agents focused on one reasoning domain. They should not own FastAPI routing, persistence, or execution of Stirling operations.
- Build long-lived runtime objects centrally at startup when possible rather than reconstructing heavy AI objects per request.
- If an agent delegates to another agent, the delegated agent should remain the source of truth for its own domain output.
-
-#### Python AI Usage
- The system must work with any AI, including self-hosted models. We require that the models support structured outputs, but should minimise model-specific code beyond that.
- Use AI for reasoning-heavy outputs, not deterministic glue.
- Do not ask the model to invent data that Python can derive safely.
- Do not fabricate fallback user-facing copy in code to hide incomplete model output.
- AI output schemas should be impossible to instantiate incorrectly.
-  - Do not require the model to keep separate structures in sync. For example, instead of generating two lists which must be the same length, generate one list of a model containing the same data.
-  - Prefer Python to derive deterministic follow-up structure from a valid AI result.
- Use `NativeOutput(...)` for structured model outputs.
- Use `ToolOutput(...)` when the model should select and call delegate functions.
-
-#### Python Testing
- Test contracts directly.
- Test agents directly where behaviour matters.
- Test API routes as thin integration points.
- Prefer dependency overrides or startup-state seams to monkeypatching random globals.
-
-### Frontend Development
- **Frontend dev server**: `task frontend:dev` — requires backend on localhost:8080
- **Tech Stack**: Vite + React + TypeScript + Mantine UI + TailwindCSS
- **Proxy Configuration**: Vite proxies `/api/*` calls to backend (localhost:8080)
- **Build Process**: DO NOT run build scripts manually - builds are handled by CI/CD pipelines
- **Package Installation**: `task frontend:install`
- **Deployment Options**:
-  - **Desktop App**: `task desktop:build`
-  - **Web Server**: `task frontend:build` then serve dist/ folder
-  - **Development**: `task desktop:dev` for desktop dev mode
-
-#### Environment Variables
- All `VITE_*` variables must be declared in the appropriate committed env file:
-  - `frontend/editor/.env` — core, proprietary, and shared vars
-  - `frontend/editor/.env.saas` — SaaS-only vars (layered on top of `.env` in SaaS mode)
-  - `frontend/editor/.env.desktop` — desktop (Tauri)-only vars (layered on top of `.env` in desktop mode)
- These files are committed to Git and must not contain private keys
- Local overrides (API keys, machine-specific settings) go in uncommitted sibling `.env.local` / `.env.saas.local` / `.env.desktop.local` files — Vite automatically layers them on top
- Never use `|| 'hardcoded-fallback'` inline — put defaults in the committed env files
- `task frontend:prepare` creates empty `.local` override files on first run; pass `MODE=saas` or `MODE=desktop` to also create the mode-specific `.local` file
- Prepare runs automatically as a dependency of all `dev*`, `build*`, and `desktop*` tasks
- See `frontend/README.md#environment-variables` for full documentation
-
-#### Import Paths - CRITICAL
-**ALWAYS use `@app/*` for imports.** Do not use `@core/*` or `@proprietary/*` unless explicitly wrapping/extending a lower layer implementation.
-
-For a broader explanation of the frontend layering and override architecture, read @frontend/editor/DeveloperGuide.md
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ CORRECT - Use @app/* for all imports
-import { AppLayout } from "@app/components/AppLayout";
-import { useFileContext } from "@app/contexts/FileContext";
-import { FileContext } from "@app/contexts/FileContext";
-
-// ❌ WRONG - Do not use @core/* or @proprietary/* in normal code
-import { AppLayout } from "@core/components/AppLayout";
-import { useFileContext } from "@proprietary/contexts/FileContext";
-```
-
-**Only use explicit aliases when:**
- Building layer-specific override that wraps a lower layer's component
- Example: `import { AppProviders as CoreAppProviders } from "@core/components/AppProviders"` when creating proprietary/AppProviders.tsx that extends the core version
-
-The `@app/*` alias automatically resolves to the correct layer based on build target (core/proprietary/saas/desktop/cloud) and handles the fallback cascade — see "Frontend `cloud/` Layer" below for the full per-flavor order.
-
-#### Frontend `cloud/` Layer
-
-`@app/*` resolves through a per-flavor cascade — first existing file wins (shadow/override):
-
- **core** → core
- **proprietary** → proprietary → core
- **saas** → saas → cloud → proprietary → core
- **desktop** → desktop → cloud → proprietary → core
- **cloud** → cloud → proprietary → core
-
-What goes where:
-
- **core** — OSS base.
- **proprietary** — licensed / offline features.
- **cloud** — the SHARED hosted/SaaS experience used by BOTH saas + desktop: PAYG, wallet, plan, billing, usage meters, cloud config/team/onboarding.
- **saas** — web-only: Supabase web auth, AuthCallback, avatar canvas, `window.location`.
- **desktop** — Tauri-only: keyring authService, tauriHttpClient, native files/windows, backend routing.
-
-`cloud/` MUST NOT import `@supabase/*`, `@tauri-apps/*`, raw `fetch`, `window.location`, `localStorage`, `sessionStorage`, or `import.meta.env.VITE_*` (enforced by ESLint). It reaches platform-specific things only via `@app/*` seams: `services/apiClient`, `auth/session.getAccessToken`, `auth/supabase`, `platform/openExternal`, `services/billing`, `hooks/useSaaSMode` — each provided per-platform in `saas/` and `desktop/`.
-
-Rule of thumb — **move, don't copy**: share via `cloud/`, override by shadowing the same `@app/*` path in a leaf (`saas/` or `desktop/`).
-
-**Cloud feature flags on desktop.** The local `AppConfigContext` reads `/api/v1/config/app-config` from the LOCAL bundled backend, so cloud-only flags (`aiEngineEnabled`, `premiumEnabled`, …) are never seen on desktop. To read the cloud's view, use `useSaasAppConfig()` (`desktop/hooks/useSaasAppConfig.ts`, backed by the general `saasAppConfigService` — SaaS-mode-only, public endpoint, native HTTP, 5-min cache). It returns `null` outside SaaS mode, so cloud features stay off in local/self-hosted and the server keeps the on/off switch (no desktop release needed to flip a flag). Gate a feature behind a per-platform seam — e.g. `useAiEngineEnabled()` (core reads `useAppConfig()`, desktop reads `useSaasAppConfig()`) — rather than hardcoding the flag on.
-
-#### Component Override Pattern (Stub/Shadow)
-Use this pattern for desktop-specific or proprietary-specific features WITHOUT runtime checks or conditionals.
-
-**How it works:**
-1. Core defines stub component (returns null or no-op)
-2. Desktop/proprietary overrides with same path/name
-3. Core imports via `@app/*` - higher layer "shadows" core in those builds
-4. No `@ts-ignore`, no `isTauri()` checks, no runtime conditionals!
-
-**Example - Desktop-specific footer:**
-
-```typescript
-// core/components/workbenchBar/WorkbenchBarFooterExtensions.tsx (stub)
-interface WorkbenchBarFooterExtensionsProps {
-  className?: string;
-}
-
-export function WorkbenchBarFooterExtensions(_props: WorkbenchBarFooterExtensionsProps) {
-  return null; // Stub - does nothing in web builds
-}
-```
-
-```tsx
-// desktop/components/workbenchBar/WorkbenchBarFooterExtensions.tsx (real implementation)
-import { Box } from '@mantine/core';
-import { BackendHealthIndicator } from '@app/components/BackendHealthIndicator';
-
-interface WorkbenchBarFooterExtensionsProps {
-  className?: string;
-}
-
-export function WorkbenchBarFooterExtensions({ className }: WorkbenchBarFooterExtensionsProps) {
-  return (
-    <Box className={className}>
-      <BackendHealthIndicator />
-    </Box>
-  );
-}
-```
-
-```tsx
-// core/components/shared/WorkbenchBar.tsx (usage - works in ALL builds)
-import { WorkbenchBarFooterExtensions } from '@app/components/workbenchBar/WorkbenchBarFooterExtensions';
-
-export function WorkbenchBar() {
-  return (
-    <div>
-      {/* In web builds: renders nothing (stub returns null) */}
-      {/* In desktop builds: renders BackendHealthIndicator */}
-      <WorkbenchBarFooterExtensions className="workbench-bar-footer" />
-    </div>
-  );
-}
-```
-
-**Build resolution:**
- **Core build**: `@app/*` → `core/*` → Gets stub (returns null)
- **Desktop build**: `@app/*` → `desktop/*` → Gets real implementation (shadows core)
-
-**Benefits:**
- No runtime checks or feature flags
- Type-safe across all builds
- Clean, readable code
- Build-time optimization (dead code elimination)
-
-#### Multi-Tool Workflow Architecture
-Frontend designed for **stateful document processing**:
- Users upload PDFs once, then chain tools (split → merge → compress → view)
- File state and processing results persist across tool switches
- No file reloading between tools - performance critical for large PDFs (up to 100GB+)
-
-#### FileContext - Central State Management
-**Location**: `frontend/editor/src/core/contexts/FileContext.tsx`
- **Active files**: Currently loaded PDFs and their variants
- **Tool navigation**: Current mode (viewer/pageEditor/fileEditor/toolName)
- **Memory management**: PDF document cleanup, blob URL lifecycle, Web Worker management
- **IndexedDB persistence**: File storage with thumbnail caching
- **Preview system**: Tools can preview results (e.g., Split → Viewer → back to Split) without context pollution
-
-**Critical**: All file operations go through FileContext. Don't bypass with direct file handling.
-
-#### Processing Services
- **enhancedPDFProcessingService**: Background PDF parsing and manipulation
- **thumbnailGenerationService**: Web Worker-based with main-thread fallback
- **fileStorage**: IndexedDB with LRU cache management
-
-#### Memory Management Strategy
-**Why manual cleanup exists**: Large PDFs (up to 100GB+) through multiple tools accumulate:
- PDF.js documents that need explicit .destroy() calls
- Blob URLs from tool outputs that need revocation
- Web Workers that need termination
-Without cleanup: browser crashes with memory leaks.
-
-#### Tool Development
-
-**Architecture**: Modular hook-based system with clear separation of concerns:
-
- **useToolOperation** (`frontend/editor/src/core/hooks/tools/shared/useToolOperation.ts`): Main orchestrator hook
-  - Coordinates all tool operations with consistent interface
-  - Integrates with FileContext for operation tracking
-  - Handles validation, error handling, and UI state management
-
- **Supporting Hooks**:
-  - **useToolState**: UI state management (loading, progress, error, files)
-  - **useToolApiCalls**: HTTP requests and file processing
-  - **useToolResources**: Blob URLs, thumbnails, ZIP downloads
-
- **Utilities**:
-  - **toolErrorHandler**: Standardized error extraction and i18n support
-  - **toolResponseProcessor**: API response handling (single/zip/custom)
-  - **toolOperationTracker**: FileContext integration utilities
-
-**Three Tool Patterns**:
-
-**Pattern 1: Single-File Tools** (Individual processing)
- Backend processes one file per API call
- Set `multiFileEndpoint: false`
- Examples: Compress, Rotate
-```typescript
-return useToolOperation({
-  operationType: 'compress',
-  endpoint: '/api/v1/misc/compress-pdf',
-  buildFormData: (params, file: File) => { /* single file */ },
-  multiFileEndpoint: false,
-});
-```
-
-**Pattern 2: Multi-File Tools** (Batch processing)
- Backend accepts `MultipartFile[]` arrays in single API call
- Set `multiFileEndpoint: true`
- Examples: Split, Merge, Overlay
-```typescript
-return useToolOperation({
-  operationType: 'split',
-  endpoint: '/api/v1/general/split-pages',
-  buildFormData: (params, files: File[]) => { /* all files */ },
-  multiFileEndpoint: true,
-  filePrefix: 'split_',
-});
-```
-
-**Pattern 3: Complex Tools** (Custom processing)
- Tools with complex routing logic or non-standard processing
- Provide `customProcessor` for full control
- Examples: Convert, OCR
-```typescript
-return useToolOperation({
-  operationType: 'convert',
-  customProcessor: async (params, files) => { /* custom logic */ },
-});
-```
-
-**Benefits**:
- **No Timeouts**: Operations run until completion (supports 100GB+ files)
- **Consistent**: All tools follow same pattern and interface
- **Maintainable**: Single responsibility hooks, easy to test and modify
- **i18n Ready**: Built-in internationalization support
- **Type Safe**: Full TypeScript support with generic interfaces
- **Memory Safe**: Automatic resource cleanup and blob URL management
-
-## Architecture Overview
-
-### Project Structure
- **Backend**: Spring Boot application
- **Frontend**: React-based SPA in `/frontend` directory
-  - **File Storage**: IndexedDB for client-side file persistence and thumbnails
-  - **Internationalization**: JSON-based translations (converted from backend .properties)
- **PDF Processing**: PDFBox for core PDF operations, LibreOffice for conversions, PDF.js for client-side rendering
- **Security**: Spring Security with optional authentication (controlled by `DOCKER_ENABLE_SECURITY`)
- **Configuration**: YAML-based configuration with environment variable overrides
-
-### Controller Architecture
- **API Controllers** (`src/main/java/.../controller/api/`): REST endpoints for PDF operations
-  - Organized by function: converters, security, misc, pipeline
-  - Follow pattern: `@RestController` + `@RequestMapping("/api/v1/...")`
-
-### Key Components
- **SPDFApplication.java**: Main application class with desktop UI and browser launching logic
- **ConfigInitializer**: Handles runtime configuration and settings files
- **Pipeline System**: Automated PDF processing workflows via `PipelineController`
- **Security Layer**: Authentication, authorization, and user management (when enabled)
-
-### Frontend Directory Structure
-The frontend is organized with a clear separation of concerns:
-
- **`frontend/editor/src/core/`**: Main application code (shared, production-ready components)
-  - **`core/components/`**: React components organized by feature
-    - `core/components/tools/`: Individual PDF tool implementations
-    - `core/components/viewer/`: PDF viewer components
-    - `core/components/pageEditor/`: Page manipulation UI
-    - `core/components/tooltips/`: Help tooltips for tools
-    - `core/components/shared/`: Reusable UI components
-  - **`core/contexts/`**: React Context providers
-    - `FileContext.tsx`: Central file state management
-    - `file/`: File reducer and selectors
-    - `toolWorkflow/`: Tool workflow state
-  - **`core/hooks/`**: Custom React hooks
-    - `hooks/tools/`: Tool-specific operation hooks (one directory per tool)
-    - `hooks/tools/shared/`: Shared hook utilities (useToolOperation, etc.)
-  - **`core/constants/`**: Application constants and configuration
-  - **`core/data/`**: Static data (tool taxonomy, etc.)
-  - **`core/services/`**: Business logic services (PDF processing, storage, etc.)
-
- **`frontend/editor/src/desktop/`**: Desktop-specific (Tauri) code
- **`frontend/editor/src/proprietary/`**: Proprietary/licensed features
- **`frontend/editor/src-tauri/`**: Tauri (Rust) native desktop application code
- **`frontend/editor/public/`**: Static assets served directly
-  - `public/locales/`: Translation JSON files
-
-### Component Architecture
- **Static Assets**: CSS, JS, and resources in `src/main/resources/static/` (legacy) + `frontend/editor/public/` (modern)
- **Internationalization**:
-  - Backend: `messages_*.properties` files
-  - Frontend: JSON files in `frontend/editor/public/locales/` (converted from .properties)
-  - Conversion Script: `scripts/convert_properties_to_json.py`
-
-### Configuration Modes
- **Ultra-lite**: Basic PDF operations only
- **Standard**: Full feature set
- **Fat**: Pre-downloaded dependencies for air-gapped environments
- **Security Mode**: Adds authentication, user management, and enterprise features
-
-### Testing Strategy
- **Integration Tests**: Cucumber tests in `testing/cucumber/`
- **Docker Testing**: `test.sh` validates all Docker variants
- **Manual Testing**: No unit tests currently - relies on UI and API testing
-
-## Development Workflow
-
-1. **Local Development** (using Taskfile):
-   - Backend + frontend: `task dev`
-   - All services (including AI engine): `task dev:all`
-   - Or individually: `task backend:dev` (localhost:8080), `task frontend:dev` (localhost:5173), `task engine:dev` (localhost:5001)
-2. **Quality Gate**: Run `task check` before submitting PRs
-3. **Docker Testing**: Use `./test.sh` for full Docker integration tests
-4. **Code Style**: Spotless enforces Google Java Format automatically (`task backend:format`)
-5. **Translations**:
-   - Backend: Use helper scripts in `/scripts` for multi-language updates
-   - Frontend: Update JSON files in `frontend/editor/public/locales/` or use conversion script
-6. **Documentation**: API docs auto-generated and available at `/swagger-ui/index.html`
-
-## Frontend Architecture Status
-
- **Core Status**: React SPA architecture complete with multi-tool workflow support
- **State Management**: FileContext handles all file operations and tool navigation
- **File Processing**: Production-ready with memory management for large PDF workflows (up to 100GB+)
- **Tool Integration**: Modular hook architecture with `useToolOperation` orchestrator
-  - Individual hooks: `useToolState`, `useToolApiCalls`, `useToolResources`
-  - Utilities: `toolErrorHandler`, `toolResponseProcessor`, `toolOperationTracker`
-  - Pattern: Each tool creates focused operation hook, UI consumes state/actions
- **Preview System**: Tool results can be previewed without polluting file context (Split tool example)
- **Performance**: Web Worker thumbnails, IndexedDB persistence, background processing
-
-## Translation Rules
-
- **CRITICAL**: Always update translations in `en-US` only - all other languages (including `en-GB`) are handled separately
- Translation files are located in `frontend/editor/public/locales/`
-
-## Important Notes
-
- **Java Version**: Requires JDK 25.
- **Lombok**: Used extensively - ensure IDE plugin is installed
- **File Persistence**:
-  - **Backend**: Designed to be stateless - files are processed in memory/temp locations only
-  - **Frontend**: Uses IndexedDB for client-side file storage and caching (with thumbnails)
- **Security**: When `DOCKER_ENABLE_SECURITY=false`, security-related classes are excluded from compilation
- **Import Paths**: ALWAYS use `@app/*` for imports - never use `@core/*` or `@proprietary/*` unless explicitly wrapping/extending a lower layer
- **FileContext**: All file operations MUST go through FileContext - never bypass with direct File handling
- **Memory Management**: Manual cleanup required for PDF.js documents and blob URLs - don't remove cleanup code
- **Tool Development**: New tools should follow `useToolOperation` hook pattern (see `useCompressOperation.ts`)
- **Performance Target**: Must handle PDFs up to 100GB+ without browser crashes
- **Preview System**: Tools can preview results without polluting main file context (see Split tool implementation)
- **Adding Tools**: See `ADDING_TOOLS.md` for complete guide to creating new PDF tools
-
-## Communication Style
- Be direct and to the point
- No apologies or conversational filler
- Answer questions directly without preamble
- Explain reasoning concisely when asked
- Avoid unnecessary elaboration
-
-## Decision Making
- Ask clarifying questions before making assumptions
- Stop and ask when uncertain about project-specific details
- Confirm approach before making structural changes
- Request guidance on preferences (cross-platform vs specific tools, etc.)
- Verify understanding of requirements before proceeding
-
-
-## Stack reality check (don't trust LLM training data) <!-- bleeding-edge-stack-note -->
-
-This codebase is on bleeding-edge versions of its core JVM stack: **Spring Boot 4.0.6**,
-**Jackson 3 (`tools.jackson`)**, **JDK 21/25 source/target with JDK 25 toolchain**.
-All three are *post*-2024 releases and your training corpus is overwhelmingly Spring Boot 2/3 and
-Jackson 2 patterns — those patterns will compile, run differently, or hallucinate APIs that no
-longer exist.
-
-Before writing or editing Spring / Jackson / JDK code:
-
-1. Open an existing module in `app/core/` or `app/common/` and grep for the actual imports being
-   used — `import tools.jackson...` not `import com.fasterxml.jackson...`, and the new
-   `org.springframework.boot` 4.x package layout.
-2. If you're not sure whether an API exists in this stack version, **check the source on disk
-   first** (the dependency JARs are downloaded under `~/.gradle/caches/modules-2/`).
-3. Do not silently downgrade a Spring Boot 4 pattern to a Spring Boot 3 equivalent. If something
-   doesn't work, surface it to the human — don't guess.
-
-Same goes for Jackson 3's API surface (renamed `ObjectMapper` builder methods, new
-`tools.jackson.databind` namespace) and JDK 25 preview features. Ground your code in this repo's
-actual imports, not what worked three years ago.

+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Common Development Commands
+
+### Build and Test
+- **Build project**: `./gradlew clean build`
+- **Run locally**: `./gradlew bootRun`
+- **Full test suite**: `./test.sh` (builds all Docker variants and runs comprehensive tests)
+- **Code formatting**: `./gradlew spotlessApply` (runs automatically before compilation)
+
+### Docker Development
+- **Build ultra-lite**: `docker build -t stirlingtools/stirling-pdf:latest-ultra-lite -f ./Dockerfile.ultra-lite .`
+- **Build standard**: `docker build -t stirlingtools/stirling-pdf:latest -f ./Dockerfile .`
+- **Build fat version**: `docker build -t stirlingtools/stirling-pdf:latest-fat -f ./Dockerfile.fat .`
+- **Example compose files**: Located in `exampleYmlFiles/` directory
+
+### Security Mode Development
+Set `DOCKER_ENABLE_SECURITY=true` environment variable to enable security features during development. This is required for testing the full version locally.
+
+### Frontend Development
+- **Frontend dev server**: `cd frontend && npm run dev` (requires backend on localhost:8080)
+- **Tech Stack**: Vite + React + TypeScript + Mantine UI + TailwindCSS
+- **Proxy Configuration**: Vite proxies `/api/*` calls to backend (localhost:8080)
+- **Build Process**: DO NOT run build scripts manually - builds are handled by CI/CD pipelines
+- **Package Installation**: DO NOT run npm install commands - package management handled separately
+- **Deployment Options**:
+  - **Desktop App**: `npm run tauri-build` (native desktop application)
+  - **Web Server**: `npm run build` then serve dist/ folder
+  - **Development**: `npm run tauri-dev` for desktop dev mode
+
+#### Multi-Tool Workflow Architecture
+Frontend designed for **stateful document processing**:
+- Users upload PDFs once, then chain tools (split → merge → compress → view)
+- File state and processing results persist across tool switches
+- No file reloading between tools - performance critical for large PDFs (up to 100GB+)
+
+#### FileContext - Central State Management
+**Location**: `src/contexts/FileContext.tsx`
+- **Active files**: Currently loaded PDFs and their variants
+- **Tool navigation**: Current mode (viewer/pageEditor/fileEditor/toolName)
+- **Memory management**: PDF document cleanup, blob URL lifecycle, Web Worker management
+- **IndexedDB persistence**: File storage with thumbnail caching
+- **Preview system**: Tools can preview results (e.g., Split → Viewer → back to Split) without context pollution
+
+**Critical**: All file operations go through FileContext. Don't bypass with direct file handling.
+
+#### Processing Services
+- **enhancedPDFProcessingService**: Background PDF parsing and manipulation
+- **thumbnailGenerationService**: Web Worker-based with main-thread fallback
+- **fileStorage**: IndexedDB with LRU cache management
+
+#### Memory Management Strategy
+**Why manual cleanup exists**: Large PDFs (up to 100GB+) through multiple tools accumulate:
+- PDF.js documents that need explicit .destroy() calls
+- Blob URLs from tool outputs that need revocation
+- Web Workers that need termination
+Without cleanup: browser crashes with memory leaks.
+
+#### Tool Development
+
+**Architecture**: Modular hook-based system with clear separation of concerns:
+
+- **useToolOperation** (`frontend/src/hooks/tools/shared/useToolOperation.ts`): Main orchestrator hook
+  - Coordinates all tool operations with consistent interface
+  - Integrates with FileContext for operation tracking
+  - Handles validation, error handling, and UI state management
+
+- **Supporting Hooks**:
+  - **useToolState**: UI state management (loading, progress, error, files)
+  - **useToolApiCalls**: HTTP requests and file processing
+  - **useToolResources**: Blob URLs, thumbnails, ZIP downloads
+
+- **Utilities**:
+  - **toolErrorHandler**: Standardized error extraction and i18n support
+  - **toolResponseProcessor**: API response handling (single/zip/custom)
+  - **toolOperationTracker**: FileContext integration utilities
+
+**Three Tool Patterns**:
+
+**Pattern 1: Single-File Tools** (Individual processing)
+- Backend processes one file per API call
+- Set `multiFileEndpoint: false`
+- Examples: Compress, Rotate
+```typescript
+return useToolOperation({
+  operationType: 'compress',
+  endpoint: '/api/v1/misc/compress-pdf',
+  buildFormData: (params, file: File) => { /* single file */ },
+  multiFileEndpoint: false,
+});
+```
+
+**Pattern 2: Multi-File Tools** (Batch processing)
+- Backend accepts `MultipartFile[]` arrays in single API call
+- Set `multiFileEndpoint: true`
+- Examples: Split, Merge, Overlay
+```typescript
+return useToolOperation({
+  operationType: 'split',
+  endpoint: '/api/v1/general/split-pages',
+  buildFormData: (params, files: File[]) => { /* all files */ },
+  multiFileEndpoint: true,
+  filePrefix: 'split_',
+});
+```
+
+**Pattern 3: Complex Tools** (Custom processing)
+- Tools with complex routing logic or non-standard processing
+- Provide `customProcessor` for full control
+- Examples: Convert, OCR
+```typescript
+return useToolOperation({
+  operationType: 'convert',
+  customProcessor: async (params, files) => { /* custom logic */ },
+});
+```
+
+**Benefits**:
+- **No Timeouts**: Operations run until completion (supports 100GB+ files)
+- **Consistent**: All tools follow same pattern and interface
+- **Maintainable**: Single responsibility hooks, easy to test and modify
+- **i18n Ready**: Built-in internationalization support
+- **Type Safe**: Full TypeScript support with generic interfaces
+- **Memory Safe**: Automatic resource cleanup and blob URL management
+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+### Project Structure
+- **Backend**: Spring Boot application with Thymeleaf templating
+- **Frontend**: React-based SPA in `/frontend` directory (Thymeleaf templates fully replaced)
+  - **File Storage**: IndexedDB for client-side file persistence and thumbnails
+  - **Internationalization**: JSON-based translations (converted from backend .properties)
+- **PDF Processing**: PDFBox for core PDF operations, LibreOffice for conversions, PDF.js for client-side rendering
+- **Security**: Spring Security with optional authentication (controlled by `DOCKER_ENABLE_SECURITY`)
+- **Configuration**: YAML-based configuration with environment variable overrides
+
+### Controller Architecture
+- **API Controllers** (`src/main/java/.../controller/api/`): REST endpoints for PDF operations
+  - Organized by function: converters, security, misc, pipeline
+  - Follow pattern: `@RestController` + `@RequestMapping("/api/v1/...")`
+- **Web Controllers** (`src/main/java/.../controller/web/`): Serve Thymeleaf templates
+  - Pattern: `@Controller` + return template names
+
+### Key Components
+- **SPDFApplication.java**: Main application class with desktop UI and browser launching logic
+- **ConfigInitializer**: Handles runtime configuration and settings files
+- **Pipeline System**: Automated PDF processing workflows via `PipelineController`
+- **Security Layer**: Authentication, authorization, and user management (when enabled)
+
+### Component Architecture
+- **React Components**: Located in `frontend/src/components/` and `frontend/src/tools/`
+- **Static Assets**: CSS, JS, and resources in `src/main/resources/static/` (legacy) + `frontend/public/` (modern)
+- **Internationalization**:
+  - Backend: `messages_*.properties` files
+  - Frontend: JSON files in `frontend/public/locales/` (converted from .properties)
+  - Conversion Script: `scripts/convert_properties_to_json.py`
+
+### Configuration Modes
+- **Ultra-lite**: Basic PDF operations only
+- **Standard**: Full feature set
+- **Fat**: Pre-downloaded dependencies for air-gapped environments
+- **Security Mode**: Adds authentication, user management, and enterprise features
+
+### Testing Strategy
+- **Integration Tests**: Cucumber tests in `testing/cucumber/`
+- **Docker Testing**: `test.sh` validates all Docker variants
+- **Manual Testing**: No unit tests currently - relies on UI and API testing
+
+## Development Workflow
+
+1. **Local Development**:
+   - Backend: `./gradlew bootRun` (runs on localhost:8080)
+   - Frontend: `cd frontend && npm run dev` (runs on localhost:5173, proxies to backend)
+2. **Docker Testing**: Use `./test.sh` before submitting PRs
+3. **Code Style**: Spotless enforces Google Java Format automatically
+4. **Translations**:
+   - Backend: Use helper scripts in `/scripts` for multi-language updates
+   - Frontend: Update JSON files in `frontend/public/locales/` or use conversion script
+5. **Documentation**: API docs auto-generated and available at `/swagger-ui/index.html`
+
+## Frontend Architecture Status
+
+- **Core Status**: React SPA architecture complete with multi-tool workflow support
+- **State Management**: FileContext handles all file operations and tool navigation
+- **File Processing**: Production-ready with memory management for large PDF workflows (up to 100GB+)
+- **Tool Integration**: Modular hook architecture with `useToolOperation` orchestrator
+  - Individual hooks: `useToolState`, `useToolApiCalls`, `useToolResources`

+  - Pattern: Each tool creates focused operation hook, UI consumes state/actions
+- **Preview System**: Tool results can be previewed without polluting file context (Split tool example)
+- **Performance**: Web Worker thumbnails, IndexedDB persistence, background processing
+
+## Translation Rules
+
+- **CRITICAL**: Always update translations in `en-GB` only, never `en-US`
+- Translation files are located in `frontend/public/locales/`
+
+## Important Notes
+
+- **Java Version**: Minimum JDK 17, supports and recommends JDK 21
+- **Lombok**: Used extensively - ensure IDE plugin is installed
+- **Desktop Mode**: Set `STIRLING_PDF_DESKTOP_UI=true` for desktop application mode
+- **File Persistence**:
+  - **Backend**: Designed to be stateless - files are processed in memory/temp locations only
+  - **Frontend**: Uses IndexedDB for client-side file storage and caching (with thumbnails)

+### Legacy Reference: Overview of Thymeleaf
+
+Thymeleaf is a server-side Java HTML template engine. It is used in Stirling-PDF to render dynamic web pages. Thymeleaf integrates heavily with Spring Boot.
+
+### Thymeleaf overview
+
+In Stirling-PDF, Thymeleaf is used to create HTML templates that are rendered on the server side. These templates are located in the `stirling-pdf/src/main/resources/templates` directory. Thymeleaf templates use a combination of HTML and special Thymeleaf attributes to dynamically generate content.
+
+Some examples of this are:
+
+```html
+<th:block th:insert="~{fragments/navbar.html :: navbar}"></th:block>
+```
+or
+```html
+<th:block th:insert="~{fragments/footer.html :: footer}"></th:block>
+```
+
+Where it uses the `th:block`, `th:` indicating it's a special Thymeleaf element to be used server-side in generating the HTML, and block being the actual element type.
+In this case, we are inserting the `navbar` entry within the `fragments/navbar.html` fragment into the `th:block` element.
+
+They can be more complex, such as:
+
+```html
+<th:block th:insert="~{fragments/common :: head(title=#{pageExtracter.title}, header=#{pageExtracter.header})}"></th:block>
+```
+
+Which is the same as above but passes the parameters title and header into the fragment `common.html` to be used in its HTML generation.
+
+Thymeleaf can also be used to loop through objects or pass things from the Java side into the HTML side.
+
+```java
+ @GetMapping
+       public String newFeaturePage(Model model) {
+           model.addAttribute("exampleData", exampleData);
+           return "new-feature";
+       }
+```
+
+In the above example, if exampleData is a list of plain java objects of class Person and within it, you had id, name, age, etc. You can reference it like so
+
+```html
+<tbody>
+   <!-- Use th:each to iterate over the list -->
+   <tr th:each="person : ${exampleData}">
+       <td th:text="${person.id}"></td>
+       <td th:text="${person.name}"></td>
+       <td th:text="${person.age}"></td>
+       <td th:text="${person.email}"></td>
+   </tr>
+</tbody>
+```
+
+This would generate n entries of tr for each person in exampleData

-# File Sharing Feature - Architecture & Workflow
-
-## Overview
-
-The File Sharing feature enables users to store files server-side and share them with other registered users or via token-based share links. Files are stored using a pluggable storage provider (local filesystem or database) with optional quota enforcement.
-
-**Key Capabilities:**
- Server-side file storage (upload, update, download, delete)
- Optional history bundle and audit log attachments per file
- Direct user-to-user sharing with access roles
- Token-based share links (requires `system.frontendUrl`)
- Optional email notifications for shares (requires `mail.enabled`)
- Access audit trail (tracks who accessed a share link and how)
- Automatic share link expiration
- Storage quotas (per-user and total)
- Pluggable storage backend (local filesystem or database BLOB)
- Integration with the Shared Signing workflow
-
-## Architecture
-
-### Database Schema
-
-**`stored_files`**
- One record per uploaded file
- Stores file metadata (name, content type, size, storage key)
- Optionally links to a history bundle and audit log as separate stored objects
- `workflow_session_id` — nullable link to a `WorkflowSession` (signing feature)
- `file_purpose` — enum classifying the file's role: `GENERIC`, `SIGNING_ORIGINAL`, `SIGNING_SIGNED`, `SIGNING_HISTORY`
-
-**`file_shares`**
- One record per sharing relationship
- Two share types, distinguished by which fields are set:
-  - **User share**: `shared_with_user_id` is set, `share_token` is null
-  - **Link share**: `share_token` is set (UUID), `shared_with_user_id` is null
- `access_role` — `EDITOR`, `COMMENTER`, or `VIEWER`
- `expires_at` — nullable expiration for link shares
- `workflow_participant_id` — when set, marks this as a **workflow share** (hidden from the file manager, accessible only via workflow endpoints)
-
-**`file_share_accesses`**
- One record per access event on a share link
- Tracks: user, share link, access type (`VIEW` or `DOWNLOAD`), timestamp
-
-**`storage_cleanup_entries`**
- Queue of storage keys to be deleted asynchronously
- Used when a file is deleted but the physical storage object cleanup is deferred
-
-### Access Roles
-
-| Role | Can Read | Can Write |
-|------|----------|-----------|
-| `EDITOR` | ✅ | ✅ |
-| `COMMENTER` | ✅ | ❌ |
-| `VIEWER` | ✅ | ❌ |
-
-Default role when none is specified: `EDITOR`.
-
-Owners always have full access regardless of role.
-
-#### Role Semantics: COMMENTER vs VIEWER
-
-In the file storage layer, `COMMENTER` and `VIEWER` are equivalent — both grant read-only access and neither can replace file content. The distinction is meaningful in the **signing workflow** context:
-
-| Context | COMMENTER | VIEWER |
-|---------|-----------|--------|
-| File storage | Read only (same as VIEWER) | Read only |
-| Signing workflow | Can submit a signing action | Read only |
-
-`WorkflowParticipant.canEdit()` returns `true` for `COMMENTER` (and `EDITOR`) roles, which the signing workflow uses to determine if a participant can still submit a signature. Once a participant has signed or declined, their effective role is automatically downgraded to `VIEWER` regardless of their configured role.
-
-The rationale: "annotating" a document (submitting a signature) is not the same as "replacing" it. COMMENTER grants annotation rights without file-replacement rights.
-
-### Backend Architecture
-
-#### Service Layer
-
-**FileStorageService** (`1137 lines`)
- Core file management service
- Upload, update, download, and delete operations
- User share management (share, revoke, leave)
- Link share management (create, revoke, access)
- Access recording and listing
- Storage quota enforcement
- Configuration feature gate checks
-
-**StorageCleanupService**
- Scheduled daily: deletes orphaned storage keys from `storage_cleanup_entries`
- Scheduled daily: purges expired share links from `file_shares`
- Processes cleanup in batches of 50 entries
-
-#### Storage Providers
-
-**LocalStorageProvider**
- Files stored on the filesystem under `storage.local.basePath` (default: `./storage`)
- Storage key is a path relative to the base directory
-
-**DatabaseStorageProvider**
- Files stored as BLOBs in `stored_file_blobs` table
- No filesystem dependency
-
-Provider is selected at startup via `storage.provider: local | database`.
-
-#### Controller Layer
-
-**FileStorageController** (`/api/v1/storage`)
- All endpoints require authentication
- File CRUD and sharing operations
-
-### Data Flow
-
-```
-User uploads file → StorageProvider stores bytes → StoredFile record created
-       ↓
-Owner shares file → FileShare record created (user or link)
-       ↓
-Recipient accesses file → Access recorded → File bytes streamed
-```
-
-## File Operations
-
-### Upload File
-
-```bash
-POST /api/v1/storage/files
-Content-Type: multipart/form-data
-
-file: document.pdf                # Required — main file
-historyBundle: history.json       # Optional — version history
-auditLog: audit.json              # Optional — audit trail
-```
-
-**Response:**
-```json
-{
-  "id": 42,
-  "fileName": "document.pdf",
-  "contentType": "application/pdf",
-  "sizeBytes": 102400,
-  "owner": "alice",
-  "ownedByCurrentUser": true,
-  "accessRole": "editor",
-  "createdAt": "2025-01-01T12:00:00",
-  "updatedAt": "2025-01-01T12:00:00",
-  "sharedWithUsers": [],
-  "sharedUsers": [],
-  "shareLinks": []
-}
-```
-
-### Update File
-
-Replaces the file content. Only the owner can update.
-
-```bash
-PUT /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}
-Content-Type: multipart/form-data
-
-file: document_v2.pdf
-historyBundle: history.json       # Optional
-auditLog: audit.json              # Optional
-```
-
-### List Files
-
-Returns all files owned by or shared with the current user. Workflow-shared files (signing participants) are excluded — those are accessible via signing endpoints only.
-
-```bash
-GET /api/v1/storage/files
-```
-
-Response is sorted by `createdAt` descending.
-
-### Download File
-
-```bash
-GET /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}/download?inline=false
-```
-
- `inline=false` (default) — `Content-Disposition: attachment`
- `inline=true` — `Content-Disposition: inline` (for browser preview)
-
-### Delete File
-
-Only the owner can delete. All associated share links and their access records are deleted first, then the database record, then the physical storage object.
-
-```bash
-DELETE /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}
-```
-
-## Sharing Operations
-
-### Share with User
-
-```bash
-POST /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}/shares/users
-Content-Type: application/json
-
-{
-  "username": "bob",          # Username or email address
-  "accessRole": "editor"      # "editor", "commenter", or "viewer" (default: "editor")
-}
-```
-
-**Behaviour:**
- If the target user exists: creates/updates a `FileShare` with `sharedWithUser` set
- If `username` is an email address and the user doesn't exist: creates a share link and sends a notification email (requires `sharing.emailEnabled` and `sharing.linkEnabled`)
- If the target user is the owner: returns 400
- If sharing is disabled: returns 403
-
-### Revoke User Share
-
-Only the owner can revoke.
-
-```bash
-DELETE /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}/shares/users/{username}
-```
-
-### Leave Shared File
-
-The recipient removes themselves from a shared file.
-
-```bash
-DELETE /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}/shares/self
-```
-
-### Create Share Link
-
-Creates a token-based link for anonymous/authenticated access. Requires `sharing.linkEnabled` and `system.frontendUrl` to be configured.
-
-```bash
-POST /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}/shares/links
-Content-Type: application/json
-
-{
-  "accessRole": "viewer"      # Optional (default: "editor")
-}
-```
-
-**Response:**
-```json
-{
-  "token": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000",
-  "accessRole": "viewer",
-  "createdAt": "2025-01-01T12:00:00",
-  "expiresAt": "2025-01-04T12:00:00"
-}
-```
-
-Expiration is set to `now + sharing.linkExpirationDays` (default: 3 days).
-
-### Revoke Share Link
-
-```bash
-DELETE /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}/shares/links/{token}
-```
-
-Also deletes all access records for that token.
-
-## Share Link Access
-
-### Download via Share Link
-
-Authentication is required (even for share links). Anonymous access is not permitted.
-
-```bash
-GET /api/v1/storage/share-links/{token}?inline=false
-```
-
- Returns 401 if unauthenticated
- Returns 403 if authenticated but link doesn't permit access
- Returns 410 if the link has expired
- Records a `FileShareAccess` entry on success
-
-> **Token-as-credential semantics:** Any authenticated user who holds the token can access the file — the token is the credential. If you need per-user access control (only a specific person can open it), use "Share with User" instead. Share links are appropriate for broader distribution where possession of the token implies authorization.
-
-### Get Share Link Metadata
-
-```bash
-GET /api/v1/storage/share-links/{token}/metadata
-```
-
-Returns file name, owner, access role, creation/expiry timestamps, and whether the current user owns the file.
-
-### List Accessed Share Links
-
-Returns the most recent access for each non-expired share link the current user has accessed.
-
-```bash
-GET /api/v1/storage/share-links/accessed
-```
-
-### List Accesses for a Link (Owner Only)
-
-```bash
-GET /api/v1/storage/files/{fileId}/shares/links/{token}/accesses
-```
-
-Returns per-user access history (username, VIEW/DOWNLOAD, timestamp), sorted descending by time.
-
-## Workflow Share Integration
-
-Signing workflow participants access documents via their own `WorkflowParticipant.shareToken`. No `FileShare` record is created for participants; access control is self-contained in the `WorkflowParticipant` entity.
-
-The `FileShare.workflow_participant_id` column and the `FileShare.isWorkflowShare()` method are **deprecated**. Legacy data (sessions created before this change) may still have `FileShare` records with `workflow_participant_id` set, which continue to work via the existing token lookup path in `UnifiedAccessControlService`. No new records are created.
-
-`GET /api/v1/storage/files` returns all files owned by or shared with the current user (via `FileShare`). Signing-session PDFs use the `file_purpose` field (`SIGNING_ORIGINAL`, `SIGNING_SIGNED`, etc.) to distinguish them from generic files. The file manager UI can filter on this field if needed.

-**Prerequisites:**
- `storage.enabled` requires `security.enableLogin = true`
- `sharing.linkEnabled` requires `system.frontendUrl` to be set (used to build share link URLs)
- `sharing.emailEnabled` requires `mail.enabled = true`
-
-## Security Considerations
-
-### Access Control
- All endpoints require authentication — there is no anonymous access
- Owner-only operations enforced in service layer (not just controller)
- `requireReadAccess` / `requireEditorAccess` checked on every download
-
-### Share Link Security
- Tokens are UUIDs (random, not guessable)
- Expiration enforced on every access
- Expired links return HTTP 410 Gone
- Revoked links delete all access records
-
-### Quota Enforcement
- Checked before storing (not after)
- Accounts for existing file size when replacing (only the delta counts)
- Covers main file + history bundle + audit log in a single check
-
-## Automatic Cleanup
-
-`StorageCleanupService` runs two scheduled jobs daily:
-
-1. **Orphaned storage cleanup** — processes up to 50 `StorageCleanupEntry` records, deletes the physical storage object, then removes the entry. Failed attempts increment `attemptCount` for retry.
-
-2. **Expired share link cleanup** — deletes all `FileShare` records where `expiresAt` is in the past and `shareToken` is set.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-**"Storage is disabled":**
- Check `storage.enabled: true` in settings
- Verify `security.enableLogin: true`
-
-**"Share links are disabled":**
- Check `sharing.linkEnabled: true`
- Verify `system.frontendUrl` is set and non-empty
-
-**"Email sharing is disabled":**
- Check `sharing.emailEnabled: true`
- Verify `mail.enabled: true` and mail configuration
-
-**Signing-session PDF appearing in the general file list:**
- This is expected — signing PDFs are accessible to owners and shared users
- Filter by `file_purpose` (`SIGNING_ORIGINAL`, `SIGNING_SIGNED`) in the UI to distinguish them
-
-**Share link returns 410:**
- Link has expired — check `expires_at` in `file_shares` table
- Owner must create a new link
-
-### Debug Queries
-
-```sql
-- List files and their share counts
-SELECT sf.stored_file_id, sf.original_filename, u.username as owner,
-       COUNT(DISTINCT fs.file_share_id) FILTER (WHERE fs.shared_with_user_id IS NOT NULL) as user_shares,
-       COUNT(DISTINCT fs.file_share_id) FILTER (WHERE fs.share_token IS NOT NULL) as link_shares
-FROM stored_files sf
-LEFT JOIN users u ON sf.owner_id = u.user_id
-LEFT JOIN file_shares fs ON fs.stored_file_id = sf.stored_file_id
-GROUP BY sf.stored_file_id, u.username;
-
-- Check share link expiration
-SELECT share_token, access_role, created_at, expires_at,
-       expires_at < NOW() as is_expired
-FROM file_shares
-WHERE share_token IS NOT NULL;
-
-- Check access history for a share link
-SELECT u.username, fsa.access_type, fsa.accessed_at
-FROM file_share_accesses fsa
-JOIN file_shares fs ON fsa.file_share_id = fs.file_share_id
-JOIN users u ON fsa.user_id = u.user_id
-WHERE fs.share_token = '{token}'
-ORDER BY fsa.accessed_at DESC;
-
-- Pending cleanup entries
-SELECT storage_key, attempt_count, updated_at
-FROM storage_cleanup_entries
-ORDER BY updated_at ASC;
-```
-
-## Summary
-
-The File Sharing feature provides:
- ✅ Server-side file storage with pluggable backend (local/database)
- ✅ History bundle and audit log attachments per file
- ✅ Direct user-to-user sharing with EDITOR/COMMENTER/VIEWER roles
- ✅ Token-based share links with expiration
- ✅ Optional email notifications for shares
- ✅ Per-access audit trail for share links
- ✅ Storage quotas (per-user, total, per-file)
- ✅ Automatic cleanup of expired links and orphaned storage
- ✅ Workflow integration (signing-session PDFs stored via same infrastructure; participant access via `WorkflowParticipant.shareToken`)

-# Shared Signing Feature - Architecture & Workflow
-
-## Overview
-
-The Shared Signing feature enables collaborative document signing workflows where a document owner can request signatures from multiple participants. Each participant receives a secure token to access the document, submit their digital signature (with optional wet signature overlay), and track the signing progress.
-
-**Key Capabilities:**
- Multi-participant signing sessions
- Digital certificate signatures (P12/PKCS12, JKS, SERVER, USER_CERT, PEM/UPLOAD)
- Visual wet signature overlays (drawn, typed, or uploaded) — multiple per participant
- Token-based participant access (no authentication required for participants)
- Authenticated participant access for registered users via sign-requests API
- Progress tracking for session owners
- Optional signature summary page appended to finalized PDF
- Automatic role downgrade after signing (security)
- GDPR-compliant wet signature metadata cleanup
-
-## Architecture
-
-### Database Schema
-
-#### Core Tables
-
-**`workflow_sessions`**
- Tracks signing sessions created by document owners
- Links to original and processed (signed) PDF files
- Stores session metadata (message, due date, status)
-
-**`workflow_participants`**
- One record per participant per session
- Tracks participant status: PENDING → VIEWED → SIGNED/DECLINED
-  - `NOTIFIED` status is reserved for a future email notification feature; no current code path sets it
- Stores participant-specific metadata (certificates, wet signatures) as JSONB
- Each participant holds their own `shareToken` (UUID) for token-based access — no separate `FileShare` record is created
- `accessRole` controls what actions the participant can perform. `COMMENTER` (and `EDITOR`) allow submitting a signature; `VIEWER` does not. After signing/declining, effective role is automatically downgraded to `VIEWER`
-
-**`user_server_certificates`**
- Stores auto-generated certificates per user
- Enables "Use My Personal Certificate" option
-
-#### Extended Tables
-
-**`stored_files`**
- Added `workflow_session_id` to link files to signing sessions
- Added `file_purpose` enum (SIGNING_ORIGINAL, SIGNING_SIGNED, etc.)
-
-**`file_shares`**
- Regular file shares are created when the session owner shares the document with other users via the file manager
- The `workflow_participant_id` column is deprecated; participant access is self-contained in `WorkflowParticipant.shareToken`
-
-### Backend Architecture
-
-#### Service Layer
-
-**WorkflowSessionService** (`816 lines`)
- Core workflow management service
- Creates sessions with participants
- Handles participant status updates
- Stores signature metadata (certificates and wet signatures)
- Finalizes sessions by coordinating signing process
-
-Key responsibilities:
- Session lifecycle management (create, list, get details, delete)
- Participant management (add, remove, notify)
- Certificate submission storage
- Wet signature metadata storage
- Session finalization orchestration
-
-**UnifiedAccessControlService**
- Validates participant tokens
- Checks session status and expiration
- Maps participant status to effective access role
- Automatic role downgrade after signing: SIGNED/DECLINED → VIEWER role
-
-**UserServerCertificateService**
- Auto-generates personal certificates for users
- Manages certificate storage and retrieval
- Enables "Use My Personal Certificate" signing option
-
-#### Controller Layer
-
-**SigningSessionController** (Owner-facing + Authenticated participant endpoints)
- `POST /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sessions` - Create signing session
- `GET /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sessions` - List user's sessions

- `POST /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sign-requests/{id}/sign` - Sign document (authenticated)
- `POST /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sign-requests/{id}/decline` - Decline sign request (authenticated)
-
-**WorkflowParticipantController** (Participant-facing, token-based)
- `GET /api/v1/workflow/participant/session?token={token}` - View session details
- `GET /api/v1/workflow/participant/details?token={token}` - Get participant details
- `GET /api/v1/workflow/participant/document?token={token}` - Download PDF
- `POST /api/v1/workflow/participant/submit-signature` - Submit signature
- `POST /api/v1/workflow/participant/decline?token={token}` - Decline to sign
-
-#### Data Flow
-
-```
-Owner creates session → Participants receive tokens →

-## Signing Workflow Process
-
-### 1. Session Creation (Owner)
-
-```
-Owner → Uploads PDF → Selects participants → Creates session
-        ↓
-System creates:
-  - WorkflowSession record
-  - WorkflowParticipant records (one per participant, each with a unique shareToken)
-        ↓
-Participants receive token (via email or share link)
-```
-
-**API Call:**
-```bash
-POST /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sessions
-Content-Type: multipart/form-data
-
-file: document.pdf
-workflowType: SIGNING
-documentName: "contract.pdf"           # Optional display name
-participantUserIds: [1, 2, 3]          # Registered user IDs
-participantEmails: ["a@b.com"]         # External/unregistered users
-participants: [...]                    # Detailed participant configs (optional)
-message: "Please sign this contract"
-dueDate: "2025-12-31"
-ownerEmail: "owner@example.com"        # Optional, for notifications
-workflowMetadata: '{"showSignature": false, "showLogo": false, "includeSummaryPage": true}'
-```
-
-**Session-level `workflowMetadata` fields:**
-| Field | Type | Description |
-|-------|------|-------------|
-| `showSignature` | boolean | Show visible digital signature block on PDF |
-| `pageNumber` | integer | Page to place digital signature on |
-| `showLogo` | boolean | Show logo in digital signature block |
-| `includeSummaryPage` | boolean | Append a signature summary page before digital signing |
-
-**Response:**
-```json
-{
-  "sessionId": "uuid",
-  "documentName": "contract.pdf",
-  "participants": [
-    {
-      "userId": 1,
-      "email": "user1@example.com",
-      "shareToken": "token1",
-      "status": "PENDING"
-    }
-  ],
-  "participantCount": 3,
-  "signedCount": 0
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Participant Access
-
-```
-Participant → Clicks token link → Views session details
-        ↓
-Status changes: PENDING/NOTIFIED → VIEWED
-        ↓
-Participant downloads PDF to review
-```
-
-**Access URL (unauthenticated):**
-```
-https://app.example.com/sign?token={participant_token}
-```
-
-**Authenticated participants** can also use:
-```
-GET /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sign-requests
-GET /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sign-requests/{sessionId}
-GET /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sign-requests/{sessionId}/document
-```
-
-**Automatic Status Update:**
- First access: PENDING/NOTIFIED → VIEWED
- Downloads tracked but don't change status
-
-### 3. Signature Submission
-
-```
-Participant → Selects certificate type → Uploads certificate (if needed)
-           → Draws/uploads wet signatures (optional, multiple supported)
-           → Submits signature
-        ↓
-System stores:
-  - Certificate data (P12/JKS keystore as base64)
-  - Certificate password
-  - Wet signatures metadata (JSON array: base64 image + coordinates per signature)
-        ↓
-Status changes: VIEWED → SIGNED
-Access role: EDITOR → VIEWER (automatic downgrade)
-```
-
-**API Call (token-based, unauthenticated):**
-```bash
-POST /api/v1/workflow/participant/submit-signature
-Content-Type: multipart/form-data
-
-participantToken: {token}
-certType: P12 | JKS | SERVER | USER_CERT
-p12File: certificate.p12 (if certType=P12)
-jksFile: keystore.jks (if certType=JKS)
-password: cert_password
-showSignature: false
-pageNumber: 1
-location: "New York"
-reason: "I approve this contract"
-showLogo: false
-wetSignaturesData: '[{"page":0,"x":100,"y":200,"width":150,"height":50,"type":"IMAGE","data":"base64..."}]'
-```
-
-**API Call (authenticated users):**
-```bash
-POST /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sign-requests/{sessionId}/sign
-Content-Type: multipart/form-data
-
-certType: SERVER | USER_CERT | UPLOAD | PEM | PKCS12 | PFX | JKS
-p12File: certificate.p12 (if applicable)
-password: cert_password
-reason: "I approve this contract"
-location: "New York"
-wetSignaturesData: '[...]'
-```
-
-**Metadata Storage (JSONB):**
-```json
-{
-  "certificateSubmission": {
-    "certType": "P12",
-    "password": "cert_password",
-    "p12Keystore": "base64_encoded_keystore",
-    "showSignature": false,
-    "pageNumber": 1,
-    "location": "New York",
-    "reason": "I approve this contract",
-    "showLogo": false
-  },
-  "wetSignatures": [
-    {
-      "type": "IMAGE",
-      "data": "base64_image",
-      "page": 0,
-      "x": 100,
-      "y": 200,
-      "width": 150,
-      "height": 50
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-Note: Multiple wet signatures are supported per participant (array).
-
-### 4. Progress Tracking (Owner)
-
-```
-Owner → Views session list → Sees "2/5 signatures"
-      → Clicks session → Views participant status
-        ↓
-Participant list shows:
-  - user1@example.com: SIGNED ✓
-  - user2@example.com: SIGNED ✓
-  - user3@example.com: VIEWED (pending)
-  - user4@example.com: PENDING
-  - user5@example.com: DECLINED ✗
-        ↓
-Auto-refresh every 15 seconds
-```
-
-**Badge Colors:**
- 🔵 Blue: 0/5 signatures (awaiting)
- 🟡 Yellow: 2/5 signatures (partial)
- 🟢 Green: 5/5 signatures (ready to finalize)
-
-### 5. Session Finalization
-
-```
-Owner → Clicks "Finalize" → System processes signatures
-        ↓
-Processing steps:
-  1. Apply wet signatures to PDF (visual overlays)
-  1.5. Append signature summary page (if includeSummaryPage=true)
-  2. Apply digital certificates in participant order
-     - Visual signature block suppressed when summary page is enabled
-  3. Store signed PDF
-  4. Clear wet signature metadata (GDPR compliance)
-        ↓
-Owner downloads signed PDF
-```
-
-**Finalization Process:**
-
-1. **Apply Wet Signatures First**
-   ```java
-   for (WetSignature sig : wetSignatures) {
-     PDPage page = document.getPage(sig.getPage());
-     byte[] imageBytes = Base64.decode(sig.getData());
-     // Convert Y from top-left (UI) to bottom-left (PDF) coordinate system
-     float pdfY = page.getMediaBox().getHeight() - sig.getY() - sig.getHeight();
-     PDImageXObject image = PDImageXObject.createFromByteArray(document, imageBytes, "signature");
-     contentStream.drawImage(image, sig.getX(), pdfY, sig.getWidth(), sig.getHeight());
-   }
-   ```
-
-2. **Append Summary Page (optional, before digital signing)**
-
-   If `includeSummaryPage=true`, a new A4 page is appended showing:
-   - Stirling logo and "Signature Summary" title
-   - Document name and session owner
-   - Finalization timestamp
-   - Per-participant: name, email, status, signed timestamp, reason, location, certificate type
-   - Supports overflow to additional pages
-
-   This step occurs **before** digital certificate signing so signatures are not invalidated.
-   When a summary page is added, the visual digital signature block (`showSignature`) is suppressed — wet signatures (hand-drawn overlays) are unaffected.
-
-3. **Apply Digital Certificates (in participant order)**
-   ```java
-   for (Participant p : participants) {
-     if (p.status == SIGNED) {
-       KeyStore keystore = buildKeystore(p.certificate);
-       // Reason: participant override > owner default > "Document Signing"
-       // Location: participant-provided only (no default)
-       CertSignController.sign(pdfBytes, keystore, password, settings);
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-
-4. **Store and Cleanup**
-   ```java
-   StoredFile signedFile = storeFile(signedPdfBytes, SIGNING_SIGNED);
-   session.setProcessedFile(signedFile);
-   session.setFinalized(true);
-
-   // GDPR: Clear sensitive metadata after finalization
-   for (Participant p : participants) {
-     p.metadata.remove("wetSignatures");         // Clears wet signature image data
-     p.metadata.remove("certificateSubmission"); // Clears keystore bytes + password
-   }
-   ```
-
-**API Call:**
-```bash
-POST /api/v1/security/cert-sign/sessions/{sessionId}/finalize
-Authorization: Bearer {owner_token}
-```
-
-**Response:** Binary PDF file with Content-Disposition header
-
-## Key Technical Features
-
-### 1. Double JSON Encoding Fix (Recent)
-
-**Problem:** JSONB columns were storing JSON strings instead of JSON objects, requiring double-parsing.
-
-**Solution:** Created `JsonMapConverter` JPA AttributeConverter:
-```java
-@Convert(converter = JsonMapConverter.class)
-@Column(name = "participant_metadata", columnDefinition = "jsonb")
-private Map<String, Object> participantMetadata;
-```
-
-**Benefits:**
- Single parse on read
- Proper JSON storage in PostgreSQL
- Type-safe Map access
- Backward compatible with legacy data
-
-### 2. Signature Progress Display (Recent)
-
-**Implementation:**
- `WorkflowSessionResponse` includes `participantCount` and `signedCount`
- `WorkflowMapper` calculates counts when converting to DTO
- Frontend displays "X/Y signatures" in session list
- Auto-refresh every 15 seconds keeps counts updated
-
-### 3. Token-Based Security
-
-**No Authentication Required for Participants:**
- Participants access via secure token (UUID)
- Token linked to specific participant and session
- Automatic expiration support
- One-time signing (cannot sign twice)
-
-**Authenticated Participant Access:**
- Registered users can also access sign requests via `/api/v1/security/cert-sign/sign-requests`
- Standard Spring Security authentication required
- Supports additional cert types: UPLOAD, PEM, PKCS12, PFX
-
-**Automatic Role Downgrade:**
- After signing: EDITOR → VIEWER
- After declining: EDITOR → VIEWER
- Prevents modification after action taken
-
-### 4. Storage Integration
-
-**Unified with File Sharing:**
- All PDFs stored via `StorageProvider` (Database or Local)
- Respects storage quotas
- Supports files up to 100GB+ (with Local storage)
- Consistent with existing file sharing infrastructure
-
-### 5. Certificate Types
-
-**P12/PKCS12/PFX:** User uploads PKCS#12 file + password
-**JKS:** User uploads Java KeyStore + password
-**PEM/UPLOAD:** User uploads PEM certificate + private key
-**SERVER:** Uses organization's server certificate (no upload needed)
-**USER_CERT:** Uses user's auto-generated personal certificate (one-click)
-
-Note: UPLOAD, PEM, PKCS12, PFX are available on the authenticated (`sign-requests`) path. The token-based path uses P12, JKS, SERVER, USER_CERT.

-## Security Considerations
-
-### Data Protection
- Wet signature image data cleared after finalization (GDPR compliance)
- Certificate submission data (keystore bytes + password) cleared after finalization (GDPR compliance)
- Certificate passwords are not encrypted at rest while stored (TODO: encrypt at rest)
- Token expiration support
-
-### Access Control
- Owner authentication required for session management
- Participant access via secure UUID tokens (no auth) or standard auth (sign-requests)
- Automatic role downgrade prevents re-signing
- Session status checks prevent unauthorized actions
-
-### Audit Trail
- All participant actions tracked
- FileShare access logged
- Status transitions recorded
- Notification history maintained
-
-## Performance Characteristics
-
-### Scalability
- Supports PDFs up to 100GB+ (with Local storage provider)
- Memory-efficient streaming for large files
- IndexedDB caching on frontend
- Database indexes on session_id, share_token, workflow_session_id
-
-### Response Times
- Session creation: ~500ms (10MB file)
- Session listing: ~100ms
- Token validation: ~50ms
- Finalization: ~2s per MB of PDF (varies by certificate operations)
-
-## Future Enhancements
-
-### Planned Features
- Email notifications for participants
- Reminder system for pending signatures
- Bulk signing operations
- Template-based signing workflows
- Signature validation/verification UI
- Certificate password encryption at rest
- Certificate keystore cleanup after finalization (GDPR)
- Webhook support for external integrations
- Analytics dashboard for signing metrics
-
-### Additional Workflow Types
- **REVIEW** - Document review with comments
- **APPROVAL** - Multi-level approval chains
- **COLLABORATION** - Real-time collaborative editing
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Issues
-
-**"Token invalid" error:**
- Check token exists in workflow_participants table
- Verify session is not finalized
- Check expiration date (expires_at)
-
-**Signature not appearing on PDF:**
- Verify certificate type is correct
- Check certificate password
- Review logs for signing errors
- Ensure PDFDocumentFactory is available
-
-**"Awaiting signatures" not updating:**
- Backend should return participantCount and signedCount
- Frontend auto-refresh every 15 seconds
- Check network tab for API errors
-
-**Wet signatures not visible after finalization:**
- Wet signatures are applied first as image overlays (Step 1)
- Check `wetSignaturesData` was sent as valid JSON array
- Verify page index is within document bounds
- Note: wet signatures survive regardless of `includeSummaryPage` setting
-
-### Debug Queries
-
-```sql
-- Check session status
-SELECT session_id, status, finalized,
-       (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM workflow_participants WHERE workflow_session_id = ws.id) as participant_count,
-       (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM workflow_participants WHERE workflow_session_id = ws.id AND status = 'SIGNED') as signed_count
-FROM workflow_sessions ws;
-
-- Check participant tokens
-SELECT email, status, share_token, expires_at
-FROM workflow_participants
-WHERE workflow_session_id = (SELECT id FROM workflow_sessions WHERE session_id = '{session_id}');
-
-- Check metadata storage
-SELECT email,
-       participant_metadata->'certificateSubmission'->>'certType' as cert_type,
-       jsonb_array_length(participant_metadata->'wetSignatures') as wet_sig_count
-FROM workflow_participants;
-```
-
-## Summary
-
-The Shared Signing feature provides a complete collaborative signing workflow with:
- ✅ Multi-participant support with progress tracking
- ✅ Multiple certificate types (P12/PKCS12/PFX, JKS, PEM, SERVER, USER_CERT)
- ✅ Visual wet signature overlays (multiple per participant)
- ✅ Token-based security for unauthenticated participants
- ✅ Authenticated participant access via sign-requests API
- ✅ Automatic role management
- ✅ Large file support (100GB+)
- ✅ GDPR-compliant wet signature metadata cleanup
- ✅ Real-time progress updates
- ✅ Full frontend integration with Quick Access Bar
- ✅ Optional signature summary page with logo and participant details
-
-The architecture leverages existing file sharing infrastructure while adding workflow-specific features, ensuring consistency and maintainability across the application.

- * is needed when mapping Tabula cell bounds to {@link Bounds}.
- *
- * <h3>Known limitations</h3>
- *
- * <ul>
- *   <li>Borderless tables are not detected (use stream mode, deferred).
- *   <li>Colspan and rowspan are not detected; all cells report colSpan=1, rowSpan=1.
- *   <li>Header rows are not identified; all rows appear in {@code rows}, headers is empty.
- *   <li>Cross-page table linking is not performed; each page is independent.
