 ## Project layout

- `src/main`, `src/test`: the reusable qbit (enrollment routes, approval/revocation, scan process, table metadata) and its H2 behavior and permission tests.
+- `pom.xml`: the `qbit-mobile-scanners-reactor` aggregator (packaging pom, single `<revision>` source) of the two published modules, `base` and `integrations/record-files`; `demo` and `examples/echo` are not part of it. One root `mvn deploy` publishes the reactor POM, `qbit-mobile-scanners` and `qbit-mobile-scanners-record-files` at the same version.
+- `base/src/main`, `base/src/test`: the reusable qbit (enrollment routes, approval/revocation, scan process, table metadata) and its H2 behavior and permission tests.
 - `demo`: basic local QQQ server with persistent H2 storage, native administration UI and password login. QQQ `4.0.0` lacks the password session exchange it needs.
 - `e2e`: browser acceptance tests against the packaged frontend and an isolated real demo server.
 - `examples/echo` and `examples/echo/demo`: the optional Echo library and its runnable composed server.

 ## Database migration beyond H2

-The supplied, tested scripts are H2: `src/main/resources/db/mobile-scanners-h2.sql` and the Echo `echo-h2.sql`. Other backends are unsupported and untested here; a host that uses one **owns the equivalent migration**; do not assume `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS` or the column types. Additive columns that older databases need before running current servers: on `mobileScan`, nullable `aimIdentifier` (`VARCHAR(3)`) and `rawDataBase64`; on Echo, nullable `echo_scan.aimIdentifier`, `rendererValue` and `humanReadable`, and **`echo_run.copies`, which is `INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 1`** (existing runs keep one copy), so it is not nullable and the equivalent migration must supply the default. Echo also has nullable template columns (`templateId`, `templateRevisionId`) in `echo-h2.sql`. Test the migration on a copy, and snapshot first.

 ## Verification

- The combined five-module `verify` (2026-11-05, base `9e8685f` plus the storage fixes) passed **196 server tests** with zero failures, errors and skips and zero Checkstyle violations: scanner 53, base demo 8, mobile Record Files 22, Echo 74, Echo demo 39.

+- [ ] Native Authentik login, logout and account switching on a handheld (not yet tested; needs the MC9400 wireless-debugging endpoint). The shared Authenticator server configuration is verified; the Printing client nonce fix (PR 11) awaits hosted Core. The MC9400 physical trigger check is done ([session state](SESSION-STATE.md#handhelds-and-remaining-limits)).
+- [ ] Optional: click the full preview of the newly uploaded gallery photo on a handheld (not observed because ADB disconnected). No camera-hardware proof is claimed.

 `EchoDemo` extends `MobileScannersDemo` (database, `scanner`/`admin` accounts, native server) and composes Collaboration, Record Files, Printing, Document Generation and `EchoHost.install` from their public classes on one private H2 file (`WRITE_DELAY=0`). Composition runs under a scoped system context that is restored afterwards, then `QInstanceEnricher` enriches the instance, because the server only validates and the enricher registers Collaboration's record-feature permissions. `LocalFilesystemAttachmentStorage` implements the attachment owner's storage SPI over `PrivateObjectFiles` (hashed keys, temp-file-then-link, no overwrite) and adds no policy. `TrustedLocalEchoDemo` is the explicit developer launcher; the production `EchoDemo` default fails closed. See `README.md` for build, run and environment.

The QQQ default is 4.1.0-RC.21 and Printing defaults to released 1.0.0; the other owner qbits remain qualified owner inputs until their public release.

 The host also installs the existing `qbit-mobile-scanners-record-files` integration, so an approved scanner can attach photos to one of its own retained Echo scans. Nothing new is served: Record Files' registered, versioned `record-files` upload API (`/qqq/v1/qbit/record-files/...`) and the independently versioned `mobile-record-files` widget vocabulary are advertised in `/qqq/v1/version`, behind the same native auth and device guards.

 - **Process:** `echoScanPhotos` ("Echo scan photos"), listed in the Echo app. It requires `echo.use`, `echoScan.attach` and a verified approved device. The first step lists the actor's own scans (the table's record security lock decides; label is the barcode and type, never the record id). The server then re-reads the chosen scan through the collaboration owner's visibility and `attach` checks and builds the `RECORD_FILES_CAPTURE` widget from the record that check returned, on the fixed `echoScan` table. The client never supplies a table or record reference, and rendering the widget directly names no parent. Record Files authorizes the parent again on every upload operation.
- **Policy:** JPEG/PNG only, 20 MiB per file, up to four files, 256 KiB chunks, private staging under the demo's `objects` directory (separate staging namespace). Retained originals follow the existing Record Files quarantine setting.
- **Needs a real scan first:** the list is empty until the scanner has Echo scans. Nothing is seeded outside this module's tests.
+- **Policy:** JPEG/PNG only, 20 MiB per file, up to four files, 256 KiB chunks, private staging under the demo's `objects` directory (separate staging namespace). The Echo host sets Record Files' `quarantineCapturedFiles=false` (leaving `quarantineNewFiles=true` and the generated-file setting unchanged), so a JPEG/PNG saved from this process by a device that `MobileCaptureIdentityProvider` currently verifies as approved is registered `AVAILABLE` and can be previewed immediately. The same upload API on any other host, and every upload, import or attachment-panel file here, stay `QUARANTINED` until released. This is a host trust decision, not a content scan or human review; no release event is written and review status is unchanged. **Requires a Record Files version that contains `RecordFilesQBitConfig.withQuarantineCapturedFiles(Boolean)`. The owner's change is an open, unmerged PR; this checkout's dependency pin has not been updated and builds only against the local owner input until a public version is pinned.** Files already uploaded stay `QUARANTINED` until released through the normal `record_files_file_record_files_release` process.
+- **Test-data records:** the host also registers the test orders, items and events as Record Files parents, so a scanner can add photos from a record's Actions menu. The same approved-device policy and authorization re-check apply. Release of any quarantined file is admin-only (`record-files.release`).
+- **Needs a real scan first (for the `echoScanPhotos` process):** the list is empty until the scanner has Echo scans. Nothing is seeded outside this module's tests.
 - **Existing databases:** the Record Files upload tables are added by the same tolerated-reapply schema step; plan the migration for a database from another version.
- **Not claimed:** no real photo upload, native capture or device run has been verified here. That needs the Android host against this server.
+- **Not claimed:** one synthetic gallery PNG uploaded from the signed MC9400 app was observed `AVAILABLE` with matching parent, type, size and SHA-256 (see [session state](../../../docs/SESSION-STATE.md)). No camera-hardware capture and no full preview of that photo are claimed.

-## Publication preparation
+## Publication

-This module is a standard QBit module (parent `qbit-build-parent` 2.1.0, Apache-2.0
-metadata, canonical Gitea URLs) and produces a separate JAR from the root
-scanner; the root has no module or dependency on it. Preparing the POM is not
-publication. Publishing still requires a full immutable (non-SNAPSHOT) dependency set
-and the normal hosted qualification and publication path. No public version of this
-module exists, and no release test is claimed here.
+This module is a module of the repository's reactor (root `pom.xml`, artifact
+`qbit-mobile-scanners-reactor`), next to `base` (`qbit-mobile-scanners`). It inherits
+the root's single `<revision>` and the same `qbit-build-parent` 2.1.0, Apache-2.0
+metadata and canonical Gitea URLs. One root `mvn deploy` (the shared Gitea Actions
+`maven` workflow) tests and publishes the reactor POM, `qbit-mobile-scanners` and
+`qbit-mobile-scanners-record-files` at one version to the Gitea Maven registry.
+Its dependencies are immutable releases from that registry: `qbit-record-files`
+0.1.0-RC.1 and `qbit-collaboration` 1.1.0-RC.1, with QQQ 4.1.0-RC.22 from the root.
+Build only this module and the base with `./mvnw -pl integrations/record-files -am verify`.
