Setup Wizard: reduced from 10 steps to 5 (Company Info → QB Migration →
Pricing Defaults → Named Ovens → Notifications). Removed Doc Numbering,
Job Settings, Payment Terms, Pricing Tiers, and Team Members steps — these
all have sensible defaults and are accessible any time in Company Settings.
Wizard now completes in ~5 minutes instead of 15–20.
Dashboard progress widget (new): "Get the most out of your shop" checklist
appears for Company Admins after wizard completion. Tracks six post-setup
activation tasks with dynamic progress badge, motivating subtitle copy,
collapsed-state persistence via localStorage, and a full completion state
("Your shop is fully set up 🎉") that replaces the checklist at 100%.
The next recommended step is highlighted with a solid CTA button and a
subtle blue row tint. Completed steps show encouraging green subtext instead
of just "Done". Widget disappears from controller when AllDone would have
caused a silent vanish — now renders the completion state instead.
Guided activation (Daily Board): rewrote the BoardIntroStep callout to lead
with "This is your shop in real time" and a plain-English description of the
board's purpose. Added a separate InstructionText field to
GuidedActivationCalloutViewModel so the "Move this job to the next stage"
action prompt renders as a distinct bold line with an arrow icon rather than
being buried in the body copy. After the stage change, the confirmation
callout now reads "Nice — your workflow just updated" to reinforce what just
happened before prompting the invoice step.
All copy passes the "shop owner, not SaaS" test: no technical jargon,
benefit-driven descriptions, natural language throughout.

Email delivery failures and PDF generation errors now show a permanent
warning/error toast that requires manual dismissal, so users cannot
accidentally miss critical action-blocking feedback.
- ToastHelper: WarningPermanent TempData key + Warning/WarningPermanent
extension methods on both ITempDataDictionary and Controller
- SetNotificationResultToast: NotificationStatus.Failed now uses
ToastWarningPermanent (previously auto-dismissed in 5 s)
- InvoicesController.Send: TempData["Warning"] → TempData["WarningPermanent"]
when PDF generation or email dispatch fails
- InvoicesController.DownloadPdf: TempData["Error"] → TempData["ErrorPermanent"]
with the actual exception message so root cause is visible
- _Layout.cshtml: WarningPermanent hidden div
- toast-notifications.js: WarningPermanent handler (timeOut: 0)

- PasskeyController: set LastLoginDate on passkey sign-in so Company Health
and audit pages show accurate last-login times (was always showing 'Never')
- Jobs/Index status modal: disable 'Notify customer' email toggle and show
warning when customer has notifications turned off; CustomerNotifyByEmail
added to JobListDto + JobProfile mapping + data-customer-notify attribute
- Quotes/Create: disable 'Send quote via email' checkbox with 'Notifications
off' badge when selected customer has email opt-out; ViewBag.CustomerEmailOptOutIds
added alongside existing CustomerTaxExemptIds pattern
- Quotes/Create: Quick Quote / Full Quote segmented toggle at top of form;
hides non-essential fields (dates, notes, tags, oven, discount, photos) in
Quick mode; selection persisted in localStorage
- InvoicesController Send action: improved error logging and user-facing
warning when PDF generation or email dispatch fails after status is saved
- item-wizard.js: guard item restoration with try/catch; ensure writeHiddenFields
always runs on form submit via capture-phase listener
- Help docs and AI knowledge base updated for all new features

Haiku has generous rate limits so parallelism is safe again. Retry
logic catches any 429s. Progress estimate updated to ~8s per wave.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Was still estimating based on 3 concurrent waves (old model).
Sequential mode runs ~18s per batch, so 500 items ≈ 6 minutes.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
500-item catalog was making 50 sequential API calls, causing progressive rate-limit
throttling (explains "super slow towards the end") and ~$3 in credits.
- BatchSize: 10 → 25 (word limits are in place; 25 items × ~80 tokens ≈ 2000
output tokens, well within MaxTokens=8192 — the original truncation cause)
- Run up to 3 batches concurrently via SemaphoreSlim(3) — independent API calls
with no shared state, so no growing context issue
- For a 500-item catalog: 50 sequential calls → 20 calls in ~7 parallel waves,
roughly 4× faster and 60% cheaper
- Dropped unused `costs` param from AnalyzeBatchAsync (system prompt has all costs)
- JS progress timing updated to reflect parallel waves
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Still seeing stubs despite MaxTokens=8192 — smaller batches and explicit
word limits in the prompt eliminate any remaining truncation risk.
- BatchSize: 15 → 10 (~1200 output tokens per batch vs. potential 3000+)
- Prompt: added 20-word cap on assumptions, 25-word cap on reasoning
- Prompt: strengthened "nothing before or after the '['" instruction
- Error log: now includes item IDs and first 300 chars of raw response
so the next failure tells us exactly what Claude returned
- JS timing: updated batch divisor from 25 → 10 to match actual batch size

File was written to repo-root wwwroot/ instead of
src/PowderCoating.Web/wwwroot/ — causing a 404 and MIME type refusal.
Moved to the correct location.

After password login, users are routed through /Passkey/EnrollPrompt
before reaching the dashboard. The page shows an Enable / Maybe later
choice using the auth layout for a clean full-screen experience.
Users who already have a passkey are skipped past instantly.
Removes the floating bottom-right card from _Layout — the dedicated
page is a better UX touchpoint (one moment, right after login, rather
than a floating card on every page).

Switch passkeySupported() from isConditionalMediationAvailable() to
isUserVerifyingPlatformAuthenticatorAvailable(). The conditional API
signals to iOS 17/18 that the page wants autofill passkey interception,
causing Safari to show its own native enrollment bottom sheet when the
password Sign In button is clicked. The platform authenticator check
simply asks if the device has biometrics, with no UI side-effects.

Shop floor workers can log in once with a password, enroll a passkey,
and use Face ID / Windows Hello / fingerprint for all future logins.
- UserPasskey entity + AddUserPasskeys migration (Fido2 v4.0.1)
- PasskeyController: RegisterOptions, Register, LoginOptions, Login,
Manage, Remove endpoints
- Login page: platform-aware button (Face ID / Windows Hello / etc.)
hidden automatically if browser doesn't support WebAuthn
- Post-login floating prompt to enroll on first use; session-dismissed
- Passkeys & Biometrics link in user dropdown menu
- Manage page: list registered devices, add new, remove individual
- passkey.js: targeted base64url conversion (only challenge + user.id
+ credential IDs) — fixes "Required parameters missing" error caused
by blindly converting rp.id and other string fields to ArrayBuffers

Each catalog item now supports one optional image (jpg/jpeg/png/gif/webp,
max 10 MB). Uploading generates a 200x200 JPEG thumbnail automatically via
SixLabors.ImageSharp. Images are stored in Azure Blob Storage under a new
catalogimages container, keyed by {companyId}/catalog/{itemId}/.
- CatalogItem entity: ImagePath + ThumbnailPath (nullable string fields)
- Migration: AddCatalogItemImages applied
- ICatalogImageService / CatalogImageService: upload, thumbnail generation,
delete; old blobs replaced atomically on re-upload
- CatalogItemsController: Create/Edit accept optional IFormFile image;
Image(id, thumbnail) action serves blobs with [Authorize] so wizard users
can load thumbnails without CanManageProducts policy
- Catalog index (_CategoryNode): 40x40 thumbnail (or placeholder icon)
left of each item name
- Details view: image card in right column with click-to-full-size link
- Create/Edit views: file picker with live preview; Edit shows current
thumbnail with Remove checkbox
- Wizard (item-wizard.js): thumbnails in product list with hover preview
that follows the cursor (showCatalogPreview / moveCatalogPreview);
fixed Bootstrap d-flex !important bug that broke the filter box by
moving flex layout to an inner wrapper div

- New AI Quick Quote floating button: staff type a verbal description to
get an instant price estimate for phone/walk-in customers; detected
color names are fuzzy-matched against inventory for stock status;
saves draft quote under a Walk-In / Phone customer with one click
- Inline customer change on Quote Details and Job Details: always-visible
native select with inline confirmation banner (no TomSelect dependency);
ChangeCustomer AJAX endpoints on QuotesController and JobsController
- Quote Edit page: customer dropdown is now editable (lock removed)
- Fix AutoMapper missing CatalogCategory -> UpdateCategoryDto mapping
that caused a crash on the catalog category Edit page
- Help docs and AI knowledge base updated for all three features
