-# AGENTS.md
-
-This file provides guidance to AI Agents 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.
-
-### Python Development
-Development for the AI engine happens in the `engine/` folder. The frontend calls the Python via Java as a proxy.
-
- Follow the engine-specific guidance in [engine/AGENTS.md](engine/AGENTS.md) for Python architecture, code style, and AI usage.
- Use Makefile commands for Python work:
-  - From `engine/`: `make check` to lint, type-check, test, etc. and `make fix` to fix easily fixable linting and formatting issues.
- The project structure is defined in `engine/pyproject.toml`. Any new dependencies should be listed there, followed by running `make install`.
-
-### 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
-
-#### Environment Variables
- All `VITE_*` variables must be declared in the appropriate example file:
-  - `frontend/config/.env.example` — core, proprietary, and shared vars
-  - `frontend/config/.env.saas.example` — SaaS-only vars
-  - `frontend/config/.env.desktop.example` — desktop (Tauri)-only vars
- Never use `|| 'hardcoded-fallback'` inline — put defaults in the example files
- `npm run prep` / `prep:saas` / `prep:desktop` auto-create the env files from examples on first run, and error if any required keys are missing
- These prep scripts run automatically at the start of all `dev*`, `build*`, and `tauri*` commands
- 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, see [frontend/DeveloperGuide.md](frontend/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/desktop) and handles the fallback cascade.
-
-#### 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/rightRail/RightRailFooterExtensions.tsx (stub)
-interface RightRailFooterExtensionsProps {
-  className?: string;
-}
-
-export function RightRailFooterExtensions(_props: RightRailFooterExtensionsProps) {
-  return null; // Stub - does nothing in web builds
-}
-```
-
-```tsx
-// desktop/components/rightRail/RightRailFooterExtensions.tsx (real implementation)
-import { Box } from '@mantine/core';
-import { BackendHealthIndicator } from '@app/components/BackendHealthIndicator';
-
-interface RightRailFooterExtensionsProps {
-  className?: string;
-}
-
-export function RightRailFooterExtensions({ className }: RightRailFooterExtensionsProps) {
-  return (
-    <Box className={className}>
-      <BackendHealthIndicator />
-    </Box>
-  );
-}
-```
-
-```tsx
-// core/components/shared/RightRail.tsx (usage - works in ALL builds)
-import { RightRailFooterExtensions } from '@app/components/rightRail/RightRailFooterExtensions';
-
-export function RightRail() {
-  return (
-    <div>
-      {/* In web builds: renders nothing (stub returns null) */}
-      {/* In desktop builds: renders BackendHealthIndicator */}
-      <RightRailFooterExtensions className="right-rail-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/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/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/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/src/desktop/`**: Desktop-specific (Tauri) code
- **`frontend/src/proprietary/`**: Proprietary/licensed features
- **`frontend/src-tauri/`**: Tauri (Rust) native desktop application code
- **`frontend/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/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`
-  - 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-GB` only, never `en-US`
- Translation files are located in `frontend/public/locales/`
-
-## Important Notes
-
- **Java Version**: Minimum JDK 21, supports and recommends 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

+# CLAUDE.md
+
+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
+- **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)
+
+### 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

-# 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.

-## Configuration
-
-All storage settings live under the `storage:` key in `settings.yml`:
-
-```yaml
-storage:
-  enabled: true                  # Requires security.enableLogin = true
-  provider: local                # 'local' or 'database'
-  local:
-    basePath: './storage'        # Filesystem base directory (local provider only)
-  quotas:
-    maxStorageMbPerUser: -1      # Per-user storage cap in MB; -1 = unlimited
-    maxStorageMbTotal: -1        # Total storage cap in MB; -1 = unlimited
-    maxFileMb: -1                # Max size per upload (main + history + audit) in MB; -1 = unlimited
-  sharing:
-    enabled: false               # Master switch for all sharing (opt-in)
-    linkEnabled: false           # Enable token-based share links (requires system.frontendUrl)
-    emailEnabled: false          # Enable email notifications (requires mail.enabled)
-    linkExpirationDays: 3        # Days until share links expire
-```
-
-**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`
-

- 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;
-```
-

-# 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)

-
-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

-## 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.

-/**
- * Stateless safety checker that decides whether a file is stable and ready for pipeline processing.
- * Call {@link #isReady(Path)} before moving or processing any file picked up from a watched folder.
- *
- * <p>A file is considered ready when ALL of the following hold:
- *
- * <ol>
- *   <li>The file exists on disk.
- *   <li>The path refers to a regular file, not a directory.
- *   <li>The file's extension matches the configured allow-list (if one is set).
- *   <li>The file has not been modified within the configured settle window ({@code
- *       settleTimeMillis}), meaning it is no longer being written.
- *   <li>The file size is stable: two reads separated by {@code sizeCheckDelayMillis} return the
- *       same value. This catches active copies on Linux/macOS where advisory file locking alone
