+Board categories are nested folder paths: `canvas_board { action: "update", id:
+"<id>", category: "Engineering/Canvas/Decisions" }`. Use `category: ""` to
+unfile a board. Moving preserves its ID and content; list results expose the
+full path for navigating the memory library.
+
+Agents should designate a README during normal board authoring, without requiring
+a manual setup step. Read `canvas_board { action: "get" }`; if `readmeNodeId` is
+null, choose or create a concise markdown introduction, then call `canvas_board
+{ action: "update", id: "<board-id>", readmeNodeId: "<markdown-node-id>" }`.
+Preserve existing designations unless the human asks to change them, and respect
+requests for no README. This is agent workflow guidance, not server-side selection
+of the first markdown card. Humans can change the designation using **Set as README**;
+clicking **README** clears it. Read-only tasks leave the board unchanged.
+
+`canvas_board { action: "create-from" }` accepts `sourceBoardId`, `name`, optional
+`category`, `nodeIds`, `includeReadme`, `includeStructure`, and `preview`. Preview
+first: `prompt`, `response`, `trace`, and `mcp-app` are not reusable. Creation is
+transactional and inactive, assigns fresh node/edge IDs, and copies no pins, AX
+state, or history. Groups and the designated README are opt-in.
+
+Library search is `canvas_query { action: "search", query: "auth", scope:
+"library" }`. It returns board/card IDs and never switches the active board.

+### `canvas_import` — agent-assisted document extraction
+
+A PDF/Office drop retains the original attachment (maximum 20 MiB), but does
+not call this tool or launch an agent automatically. Only act after a human has
+explicitly consented and moved the job to `requested`. Use `read` to obtain
+metadata and the controlled HTTP `downloadPath`; `inline:true` includes base64
+only when the source is at most 2 MiB. Remote MCP hosts may need a manual byte
+transfer because MCP connectivity does not imply access to the canvas HTTP
+server or filesystem.
+
+Submit 1–32 Markdown `sections`, each with a title and an optional truthful
+page/slide/sheet `reference`, plus `warnings` and a non-empty
+`agentDescription` naming the tool/path used. Report `unavailable` rather than
+inventing missing text or references. Draft submission is allowed while another

+# Plan 010 — Attributed ask answers
+
+**Status:** Proposed, scheduled for 0.8 with author on every node
+**Date:** 2026-09-26
+**Source:** [Product vision, move 7](../product-vision-2026-09.md#7-trust-that-is-not-a-label-s-then-m), decided 2026-09-26 (replaces the 2026-09-24 human-only decision).
+**Done when:** an approval answered by an agent is shown and returned as that agent's, one answered in the workbench as the human's, and an agent answering its own ask is marked as a self-answer.
+
+## Why attribution, not a lock
+
+The harness an agent runs in (Claude Code, Codex, Copilot) is what gates its actions. The canvas cannot
+stop an agent; a PMX gate works because the agent chose to ask and honours the answer. Gates matter as the
+visible ask on the board, as coordination where an orchestrator approves its workers' asks, and as the
+record afterwards. A human-only lock would break coordination. The actual defect is that an answer does not
+say who gave it, so a self-approved gate reads the same as the human's.
+
+## Changes
+
+1. **Boot secret.** The server mints a random secret at startup and injects it into the workbench HTML
+   (`canvasSpaHtml`, beside `__PMX_BOOT_BUNDLE_STAMP`). The client bridge sends it as
+   `x-pmx-workbench-token` (not from `?agent=` tabs). The HTTP transport sets `meta.human` only when it
+   matches. `x-pmx-workbench` keeps its current meaning.
+2. **`resolvedBy` on every answer.** Approval gates, elicitations and mode requests record
+   `resolvedBy: { actor: 'human' | 'agent' | 'system', source, agentId? }` and `selfAnswer: true` when the
+   agent answering is the one that asked. The TTL sweeper records `system`. Persisted with the ask and
+   returned by `await`, `canvas://ax-work` and the timeline event.
+3. **Shown to the human.** The session panel and the timeline read "Approved by you", "Approved by
+   orchestrator" or "Self-approved by copilot".
+4. **Nothing is refused.** Every existing resolve path (MCP, CLI, Copilot extension, SDK) keeps working;
+   no withdraw is added.
+5. **Docs** state the ceiling: an agent running as the same user can read the workbench HTML, so the
+   secret proves nothing against a determined local agent; it separates the human's clicks from casual
+   agent calls.
+
+## Tests
+
+- Unit: an answer over HTTP with the secret is `human`; without it, over MCP, CLI and SDK it is `agent`
+  with the caller's source; the requester answering its own ask sets `selfAnswer`; the sweeper is `system`.
+- Client: the session panel renders the attribution.
+- E2E: Approve from the session panel records `human`.

+# Plan 011 — Context read instrumentation
+
+**Status:** Done (2026-09-26)
+**Date:** 2026-09-26
+**Source:** [Product vision, Part 1 item 4](../product-vision-2026-09.md#part-1-the-foundation), the *delivery* half. Part of 0.7.
+**Done when:** agent reads are being recorded — for each read, which surface was read, by whom, and which pinned nodes were in what came back — and the record can be read per consumer.
+
+## Question it answers
+
+"Does the brief reach the agent?" per host. A miss here is plumbing (skill, adapter, MCP client), not
+evidence against the thesis. The *effect* half (does curation change the work) is a separate eval.
+
+## What is recorded
+
+One row per context read in a new `context_reads` table (diagnostics, like the AX timeline: never
+snapshotted, never cleared by `canvas_view clear`, bounded to the newest 5,000 rows, and recording never
+emits a change notification — a read must not cause more reads).
+
+| Field | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `at` | When |
+| `channel` | `operation` (HTTP/CLI/MCP tool through the registry), `mcp-resource`, `mcp-prompt`, `adapter` |
+| `resource` | Operation name (`ax.context.get`) or URI (`canvas://pinned-context`) |
+| `source`, `consumer`, `agentId` | Who: transport label, MCP `clientInfo.name` or `?consumer=`, agent id when given |
+| `pinnedNodeIds` | Pins at read time |
+| `deliveredNodeIds` | Pinned nodes whose serialized node is in what the reader received |
+| `bytes` | Size of what the reader received |
+
+"Delivered" means a serialized node carrying that id (`"id": "<id>"`) is in the payload — a bare id list,
+a title, or a node clipped off by an adapter's size budget does not count. `canvas://summary` carries only
+pinned titles, so it delivers no pins, which is the honest answer for that surface.
+
+## Where it is recorded
+
+- **Registry reads** (`pinned-context.get`, `ax.context.get`, `ax.get`, `summary.get`, `spatial.get`,
+  `layout.get`) in `executeOperation`, which covers HTTP, the CLI and MCP tools. The workbench's own reads
+  are skipped.
+- **MCP resources and the `pmx-current-context` prompt** in `src/mcp/server.ts`, with the client's
+  `clientInfo.name` as consumer. When the MCP server is attached to a daemon, its internal fetches send
+  `x-pmx-proxied-read: 1` (not recorded) and it posts one record for the read the agent actually made.
+- **The Copilot extension** does the same for its per-prompt injection, computing delivery from the text
+  it injects *after* its 16k truncation — the one place that knows what the agent actually got.
+
+## Surfaces
+
+- `GET /api/canvas/ax/context-reads?limit=` → `{ reads, summary }`, summary per consumer: reads, reads with
+  pins, reads that delivered every pin, last read, resources used.
+- `POST /api/canvas/ax/context-reads` — records a read for proxies and adapters (presence-exempt).
+- MCP: `canvas_ax_timeline { action: "reads" }`. SDK: `getContextReads()`. CLI: `pmx-canvas ax reads`.
+
+## Not in scope
+
+The effect eval under `docs/evals/`, hosts without an adapter in this repo (Claude Code hooks, Codex), and
+reading the measurement against the decision rule (0.8).

+# Plan 012 — Many boards, stage 1, and built-in backup
+
+**Status:** Done (2026-09-27) — storage, surfaces, browser, backup
+**Date:** 2026-09-27
+**Source:** [Product vision, move 0](../product-vision-2026-09.md#0-many-boards-and-boards-are-the-wiki-m-then-m-then-l), stage 1, plus library backup. The last item of 0.7.
+**Done when:** the nine real boards open by name; a backup restores them on a clean machine; a new session never overwrites an existing board.
+
+## Decisions (maintainer, 2026-09-27)
+
+- **Home is not a board.** Home is the view you see when no board is open: your boards, most recent first,
+  with create, open, rename and delete. This replaces the vision's "Home is level 0" — boards that no portal
+  links to become the top level instead (move 0 levels, 0.8/0.9).
+- **Deleting a board needs a confirm** — in-page, never a browser dialog (they are no-ops in agent panes).
+- **Backup is built in**, including the schedule, not left to cron.
+- **Categories on Home** (revised 2026-09-27): a board may be filed under a nested folder path; Home shows an
+  expandable outline with name/path search and a parent-folder picker, with unfiled boards last.
+  Paths are stored on boards; empty folders are not independent objects. Boards migrated from old snapshots land
+  in a "From old snapshots" category that starts folded. Agents see and set categories through
+  `canvas_board` (`list`, `create`, `update`) — the library is the working memory, and its categories are
+  the first structure the cross-board brief (0.8) can read.
+
+## What the human sees
+
+1. **Top bar:** the board name replaces the workspace name. Clicking it opens a menu: recent boards, New
+   board, Home.
+2. **Home view** (no board open): a list of boards with name, last opened, node count; New board; Open;
+   Rename; Delete (with an in-page confirm naming the board and its node count). Boards save automatically;
+   backup schedules and manual recovery copies are backend/CLI maintenance, not Home controls.
+3. **Startup** opens the board that was open last. A fresh workspace starts on Home.
+4. **Existing workspaces migrate:** the current board becomes a board named after the workspace folder and
+   stays open, so nothing looks different at first. **Every old snapshot becomes a board of its own**, named
+   after the snapshot and dated when it was taken (maintainer, 2026-09-27: in 0.6 each session replaced the
+   one board, so a snapshot is effectively a past board). This is how the nine real boards come back.
+
+## What agents see
+
+- `canvas://boards` resource and a `canvas_board` tool (22 → 23): `list`, `get`, `create`.
+- **Agent writes go to the open board** (revised with the maintainer, 2026-09-27 — no per-session
+  binding, no refusal when the human switches). When no board is open (Home), an agent's first write opens
+  the most recently opened board; when the workspace has no boards yet, it creates one. An agent that wants
+  a *different* board asks the human; only the human opens, switches or deletes a board. An agent may
+  create a board; it does not open it.
+- Reads without a board read the open board; `board` on a read reads that board straight from SQLite.
+
+## Data
+
+- New `boards` table: `id`, `name`, `created_at`, `last_opened_at`, `viewport`, `tour`, `populated`.
+- `board_id` on `nodes`, `edges`, `annotations`, `context_pins`, `ax_state`, `snapshots`. Keys become
+  `(board_id, id)`, so these tables are rebuilt once in a transaction (SQLite cannot change a primary key
+  in place); existing rows get the migrated board's id. `meta` keeps workspace-global keys only
+  (`schema_version`, `theme`, `active_board`, backup settings); per-board keys move to `boards`.
+- `saveStateToDB` / `loadStateFromDB` / `deleteMissingRows` / snapshot list and GC are scoped to one board.
+  Blob GC scans every board.
+- **Stay workspace-global:** theme, blobs, host capabilities, the AX timeline tables and the context read
+  log (a `board_id` column is added to `context_reads` so the measurement can be read per board).
+
+## Switching boards (server)
+
+One `switchBoard(id | null)` on `CanvasStateManager`, keeping the singleton (1,000+ call sites untouched):
+flush the current board → `applyPersistedState` from the new one (or empty for Home) → reset undo history
+and intents → rewatch file nodes, close/rehydrate app sessions, recompute the code graph → broadcast
+`boards-changed`. Agent and human presence are kept (they belong to people, not boards), and the trace
+chain restarts itself when its last node is gone. The client treats `boards-changed` with a new open board
+like a reconnect: it refetches the board's layout and pins with `hasInitialServerLayout = false`, so the
+camera comes with it, and drops the connection's saved layout overrides (they belonged to the old board).
+
+## Restoring the nine boards
+
+The migration does it: every old snapshot becomes a board, so the nine real boards (and every other
+session's board) appear on Home the first time the maintainer's workspace opens in 0.7. The real
+databases hold a hundred or more snapshots each, many of them the same board a few minutes apart, so Home
+will list many boards at first; the maintainer renames the keepers and deletes the rest (slice 3).
+
+## Backup and restore (built in)
+
+- `pmx-canvas backup` writes `VACUUM INTO <folder>/canvas-<timestamp>.db` (safe while the server runs) and
+  keeps the newest N. `pmx-canvas backup schedule --every 24h --keep 14 --to <folder>` stores the schedule
+  in `meta`; the server runs it (checks every minute, runs when due, survives restarts). `--off` stops it.
+- `pmx-canvas restore <file>`: the server flushes, closes the DB, copies the backup in (keeping the current
+  file as `canvas.db.before-restore`), reopens and loads the last open board.
+- HTTP + SDK + CLI. Not exposed to MCP: backup and restore are the human's maintenance, not agent tools.
+
+## Slices (each tested, committed and pushed on its own)
+
+1. **Storage and switching:** schema + migration, board-scoped save/load/snapshots, `switchBoard`, unit
+   tests including migrating a copy of a real 0.6.x database.
+2. **Surfaces:** HTTP routes, `canvas_board` + `canvas://boards`, CLI `board` commands, SDK, opening the
+   most recent board before an agent write lands on Home (in `executeOperation`), docs.
+3. **Browser:** top-bar switcher, Home view, delete confirm, per-board localStorage; e2e at desktop and
+   600 px.
+4. **Backup, restore and the schedule.**
+
+## Risks
+
+- **The migration touches real data.** It runs in one transaction, writes `canvas.db.pre-boards` first,
+  and is tested against a copy of a real 0.6.x database before release.
+- **Hidden single-board assumptions** (module state, SSE replay, localStorage) — slice 1 lists every reset
+  and a test switches boards with an app node, a file node, a pending intent and an undo stack present.

+**Source:** [Product vision, move 11](../product-vision-2026-09.md#11-static-export-the-first-step-to-sharing-m) — the first step to sharing, the 0.7.x item.
+**Done when:** a colleague opens an exported board with no install: one HTML file, read-only, with pan, zoom and card expand.
+
+## What the file is
+
+One self-contained HTML file of one board: the board's cards, groups and connections laid out as on the
+canvas, a small inline viewer (drag to pan, wheel or buttons to zoom, fit on open, click a card to expand
+it, Esc to close), and a header naming the board and when it was exported. No server, no network needed
+for anything the board itself holds.
+
+## How each kind of card exports
+
+| Card | In the file |
+|---|---|
+| markdown, status, context, ledger, trace, diff, prompt/response, webpage | Rendered as text. Raw HTML inside markdown is shown as text, and only http(s), mailto and in-page links stay links |
+| html | Its markup in a sandboxed iframe (`allow-scripts`, no same-origin), as on the canvas |
+| json-render, graph, mermaid | Their viewer documents in sandboxed iframes. The viewer bundles are stored once in the file and shared by every such card, so ten charts do not mean ten copies |
+| web artifact (built app) | Its bundled page in a sandboxed iframe |
+| live MCP app (e.g. Excalidraw) | A labelled placeholder — it needs its server |
+| image | Local images embedded; web images stay links to the web |
+| file | Path only, unless the owner opts in to include file contents |
+| group | Its frame and title |
+
+## The rule: the owner sees what leaves the machine
+
+An export is a share. Before writing, the export dialog lists what goes into the file: the card count,
+embedded charts and diagrams, apps shown as placeholders, local files (contents excluded unless the owner
+ticks "Include file contents"), and web images and links the file will point to.
+
+## Surfaces
+
+- Browser: **Export** in the top bar → the dialog above → the file is written to `exports/` beside the
+  database (`.pmx-canvas/exports/<board>-<timestamp>.html`), with Open and Download links and the path.
+- `GET /api/canvas/export/preview?board=&includeFiles=` → the manifest; `POST /api/canvas/export`
+  `{ board?, includeFiles? }` → writes the file and returns its path, URL and manifest;
+  `GET /api/canvas/exports/<file>` serves it (opaque-origin sandbox CSP; `?download=1` as an attachment).
+- CLI `pmx-canvas export [--board <id>] [--include-files] [--out <path>]`; SDK `exportBoard()`.
+- Not on MCP: sharing is the human's act. Any board can be exported, not only the open one.
+
+## Not in this slice

+portals (0.8).

+# Plan 014 — Connected board memory
+
+**Status:** The earlier shared-text, attribution/revision, README/link, library
+search, create-from, cross-board brief, and agent-assisted import work is committed
+and pushed to `main` through
+[`8dbdde2`](https://github.com/pskoett/pmx-canvas/commit/8dbdde29635c275e1eda0bba524071048196feec).
+Unit, client, full headed browser and live import checks passed (details below).
+The maintainer selected this work for **0.7.0** on 2026-09-29, rather than skipping
+to the original 0.8 slot. Import retains
+originals and stages agent-authored Markdown for human review, rather than
+providing bundled document conversion. Future graph/wiki work and the real-agent
+curation-effect evaluation remain pending.
+**Date:** 2026-09-27; release scope updated 2026-09-29
+**Source:** Product vision moves 0, 1, 7, 14 and 15; maintainer requested an oracle review before implementation.
+
+## Scope and order
+
+1. **Shared card text.** Extend `agent-context.ts` rather than introduce a second text model. Explicit type-aware fallbacks carry content instead of raw configuration. Search consumes the same untruncated text before snippet selection; context truncates only at delivery. Test every node type and values beyond the brief budget. This first slice adds no attribution, revision, converter or library-search API.
+2. **Attribution and revisions.** Implement plan 010 with server-stamped creator/last-editor identities and content revisions. Cover SDK/direct state writes as well as registry operations; never accept caller-provided authorship. Existing authors are unknown, not retroactively human. Preserve creation provenance through snapshots and distinguish restoration from a new edit. Geometry-only changes must not masquerade as content edits.
+3. **Board introductions, links and library search.** Designate one README via a board-owned node reference; add text-only board-link cards and derived backlinks. Extend existing `canvas://boards`, not a duplicate resource. Search inactive boards without opening them and overlay unsaved active state. Results carry board/card IDs; only explicit human navigation opens a result.
+4. **New board from this board.** Preview reusable structure/cards, allocate fresh IDs, remap internal references and add a previous-board link. Create the new board transactionally without opening it; do not copy asks, execution state or history. This is a bounded create operation, not a general inactive-board mutation API.
+5. **Document ingestion — agent-assisted v1 implemented and verified; included in 0.7.0.** Canvas receives and retains file bytes as board-owned attachments. The human asks the connected agent to read an attachment with its existing file tools and submit source-linked Markdown for review. No bundled converter, Python installation, OCR engine or automatic agent execution. An unavailable or incapable agent leaves a usable attachment with an explicit status, not a failed upload. See the v1 contract and fixture-specific verification below.
+6. **Cross-board brief — initial implementation and controlled retrieval check complete.** Local pins, useful local changes and asks, then bounded linked/same-folder board context; folders are a relevance tiebreak, not an instruction to include everything. Every entry carries source IDs and inclusion reason. Durable cursors are opt-in through an explicit consumer; no consumer starts from the beginning. In the fixed noisy-board fixture, a 1,000-code-unit budget fully delivers both pinned decisions versus neither without pins, preserves source IDs, and does not advance over omitted revisions. This is a retrieval regression check, not the vision's real-agent workflow evaluation; that remains pending.
+
+Binary distribution, cheap-tool restructuring, wiki-link syntax, the board map, renderer consolidation, the full journal and concurrent board managers remain separate work.
+
+## Oracle review: decisions before dependent implementation
+
+- **Durable delta:** context-read sequence numbers are not content revisions. Specify per-board monotonic content revisions and deletion retention before the brief. Advance a consumer cursor only for a defined delivered delta; a truncated brief must not mark omitted changes as read. Expired cursors return an explicit reset, not a fabricated complete delta. Restore/undo must also advance revisions. Do not use the pruned diagnostics table as the sole cursor store.
+- **Summary freshness:** an agent-written summary must identify the content revision it describes. A changed source without an updated summary falls back to current extracted content with a warning. Layout edits must not invalidate summaries. This needs the revision contract; the initial mechanical text slice does not claim to solve summary freshness.
+- **Board ownership:** preserve the single active-board write rule. A converter works on a captured target and stages its result; switching boards cannot retarget completion. If the target is no longer active, preserve the preview and require explicitly reopening that board to commit. Do not introduce the oracle's proposed arbitrary `writeInactiveBoard(transform)` API.
+- **Attachments:** keep source bytes outside node payloads and layout/SSE responses. Use board-scoped references to dedicated SQLite attachment storage, with explicit snapshot retention and garbage collection. Content hashes deduplicate bytes; they are not authorization. Backups must include originals.
+- **Export privacy:** the vision requires disclosure of both original attachments and extracted text. Before ingestion ships, explicitly classify source-derived cards in the export manifest and provide an inclusion choice for their text, separately from original bytes. Editing a derived card must not silently remove its source classification.
+- **Trust:** workbench-token attribution follows plan 010's honest local ceiling. Imported text is labelled source material, not instructions, approval or verified knowledge.
+
+## Agent-assisted import v1 — maintainer decision
+
+For the first implementation, use the connected agent's existing file tools.
+The user-facing flow is **Attach file → ask agent to import → review → add to
+board**, not guaranteed automatic conversion on drop.
+
+- Canvas owns the original bytes in board-scoped attachment storage; node
+  payloads contain references, never the whole binary. Uploads are limited to
+  20 MiB. Originals survive restart, snapshot restore, and library backups until
+  their board is deleted.
+- Reuse existing agent steering/delivery for the explicit import request; do
+  not add a converter service, host-specific agent launcher or agent framework.
+- Expose an attachment ID and controlled download/read path. A same-machine
+  agent can obtain a working copy; reads may include inline base64 only through
+  2 MiB. Remote hosts may need to transfer the bytes manually into
+  their own environment. Do not assume MCP connectivity implies filesystem
+  access or PDF/Office-reading capability. Automatic host transfer is not a
+  prerequisite for v1: unavailable access is reported clearly.
+- The agent returns draft Markdown sections with available page, slide or
+  sheet references, extraction warnings, and an `agentDescription`. Missing references or unreadable
+  content must be disclosed rather than invented. Preview and explicit commit
+  create ordinary searchable, pinnable cards linked to the original.
+- Capture the destination board at upload. If the human switches boards before
+  completion, allow draft submission, keep it with its source board, and require reopening it to
+  commit. Agent output cannot retarget the import or overwrite human edits.
+- Show that processing uses the connected agent's tools and model provider;
+  a local attachment does not mean model processing stays local. Requesting
+  import explicitly authorizes that processing, subject to host permissions.
+- With no capable agent, retain the attachment and allow a later request. No
+  claim of PDF/PPTX/XLSX extraction coverage until tested with a named host/tool
+  combination. Treat source text as data, never instructions or approval.
+
+Attachment size limits, safe byte serving, draft validation, cancellation,
+snapshot retention, and explicit export choices are implemented and tested:
+original bytes are never exported in v1, while source-linked edited Markdown is
+excluded unless `includeDerivedText=true`, separately from `includeFiles`. Defer local
+converter installation, OCR pipelines, automatic retries and rich spreadsheet
+editing. This adds no converter dependency to Canvas; it still depends on the
+connected host's available tools for extraction.
+
+## Deferred converter candidates
+
+The investigation below is reference material for a later local-conversion
+option, not a prerequisite or selected dependency for agent-assisted v1.
+
+**Maintainer preference, 2026-09-27:** avoid adding dependencies. Default to no new required package, Python runtime or converter installation. First establish what the existing Bun/TypeScript stack and existing dependencies can handle reliably. An optional installed converter or host-agent tool is still an operational dependency and must be described as such; it is not a dependency-free implementation. PDF/PPTX/XLSX remain desired formats, but their conversion approach is unresolved under this constraint. Do not silently reduce format coverage or substitute hand-written parsers merely to avoid a package.
+
+The maintainer suggested [MarkItDown](https://github.com/microsoft/markitdown) and [Defuddle](https://github.com/kepano/defuddle). Source review identifies MarkItDown as the file-conversion candidate and Defuddle as an HTML/article extractor, not an Office/PDF converter. Both project licenses are MIT; exact dependency and redistribution licenses still need review before bundling.
+
+MarkItDown requires Python and offers optional PDF/PPTX/XLSX/DOCX readers. PPTX output contains slide markers and notes; XLSX output contains sheet headings and tables. Default PDF conversion loses page boundaries, and empty extraction does not establish an OCR-required result. Spreadsheet output also loses cell ranges and can expose stale cached formula values. These are adapter requirements, not reasons to invent document parsers.
+
+Run a disposable, version-pinned local spike before selecting the runtime: representative PDF (including scanned/mixed pages), PPTX notes and chart warnings, and XLSX cached/missing formulas and multiple sheets. Require structured segments and warnings alongside Markdown. Test cancellation and oversized archives. Keep plugins, URL fetching, cloud conversion and LLM OCR disabled; no document leaves the machine implicitly. A subprocess timeout is not a network sandbox or memory limit—validate those boundaries separately.
+
+If an optional converter is chosen, prefer a narrow cancellable worker over embedding Python or invoking arbitrary shell commands. Record converter/version and source locations in provenance. Reuse the existing HTML-to-Markdown dependencies before considering Defuddle; do not add it merely because it was considered here. Legacy `.ppt`/`.xls` and OCR are explicit follow-ons unless separately validated.
+
+## Verification gates
+
+- Text: exhaustive per-type fixtures with independently expected meaning; no raw config dumps, data URIs or hidden HTML accidentally presented as visible content. Search finds text beyond the context budget.
+- Attribution/delta: forgery attempts, unknown callers, system answers, self-answer, restart, restore, undo, deletions, retention expiry and truncated delivery.
+- Board features: inactive reads leave the active board unchanged; renames/moves preserve links; missing targets remain navigable errors; copy is atomic with remapped references.
+- Import: known document facts survive extraction, restart, search and pinned-context delivery; corrupt/unsupported files, cancellation, partial extraction, board switches and export choices are covered.
+- UI: headed Chromium desktop and 600 px, keyboard-accessible picker/preview, readable tables, visible navigation destination. Inspect representative screenshots, not only API state.
+
+Each slice is verified before proceeding. This plan does not authorize publishing, releasing or pushing the new batch.
+
+## Verification recorded for the previous committed batch
+
+- `bun run test`: 1,205 passed, zero failed.
+- `bun run test:client`: 173 passed, zero failed.
+- `DISPLAY=:99 ... bash scripts/run-playwright.sh --headed`: 149 passed against
+  a disposable database, including desktop workflows and every 600px reference type.
+- `bun run build`, `bun run typecheck`, `bun run lint`, and `git diff --check`
+  pass. Lint retains warnings; this is not a warning-free baseline.
+- Bundled skill manifest/content tests pass. `validate:agent-skills` skips the
+  absent local-only mirror trees; it does not validate those missing copies.
+- Review fixes cover async actor isolation, revision continuity on undo/restore
+  and group membership, incomplete brief cursors, opt-in MCP consumers, invalid
+  README updates, and copied blob storage. Board creation remains inactive,
+  matching the existing `board.create` contract.
+
+These results predate the current import implementation and are not verification
+of it. The earlier full browser run exposed four test assumptions (filtered folder
+tree, repeated link-summary text, viewport timing before undo, and Mermaid aspect
+ratio); focused reruns and the final full run pass after correcting them. A unit
+run collided with the browser server on its deliberately unreachable port 4549;
+the final unit run above was performed after that server stopped.
+
+## Agent-assisted import verification — 2026-09-28
+
+- Unit suite: 1,218 passing; client suite: 174 passing. Build and typecheck pass;
+  lint passes with existing warnings. Import storage checks cover restart,
+  snapshots, selective-copy ownership, deletion retention, cancellation, late
+  submissions, immutable source references, and export redaction.
+- Headed browser checks passed at 1440 px and 600 px: upload, consent, waiting,
+  review, commit, reload, search, and the separate imported-text export choice.
+  The nine board workflow tests also passed after the Home-screen refinement.
+  The final full headed browser suite passed all 154 tests in 11.1 minutes.
+- Live Amp extraction used `view_media` for a single-page text PDF and Python's
+  standard-library ZIP/XML inspection for simple PPTX/XLSX fixtures downloaded
+  from Canvas. The three drafts were submitted through `canvas_import`, reviewed
+  and committed in the browser. Q1=12, Q2=47 and budget=23 credits survived into
+  readable cards, library search and source-labelled MCP pinned context.
+- This validates those simple fixtures and that named agent/tool combination,
+  not general Office fidelity, OCR, speaker notes, charts or formula evaluation.
+  Originals remain downloadable when a host reports conversion unavailable.
