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.

Migrated InvoicesController, QuotesController, JobsController, BillsController,
PurchaseOrdersController, and CustomersController to route all data access
through IUnitOfWork typed/generic repositories instead of injecting
ApplicationDbContext directly.
New typed repositories added: IJobRepository (GetScheduledJobsForDateAsync,
GetActiveJobsForMobileAsync, LoadForCostingAsync), INotificationLogRepository
(GetLatestForJobAsync, GetAllForJobAsync), IQuoteRepository (GetItemsWithCoatsAsync
with CatalogItem eager load + AsNoTracking), and IJobRepository.GetOrphanedConversionJobAsync.
All EF complex include chains relocated into repository methods; controllers now
call named query methods rather than composing raw IQueryable chains.

- StatusBump (GET + POST) now requires authentication; routes by job ID
instead of anonymous ShopAccessCode GUID; records actual user name in
status history instead of anonymous token string
- WorkOrder action generates a second "View Job" QR in the header linking
to the authenticated Details page (for verifying specs and seeing catalog
images on mobile); status bump QR updated to ID-based URL
- WorkOrder view: top QR added to header alongside job number; status bump
label updated (removed "no login required" copy)
- StatusBump view: updated form routing from asp-route-token to asp-route-id
- HelpKnowledgeBase and Jobs help article updated with two-tier QR docs

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
