+# Repository Instructions
+
+## Versioning and releases
+
+- Treat `package.json` as the source of truth for the application version.
+- When the app version changes, update `CHANGELOG.md` in the same change.
+- Keep database migration versions aligned with the release they actually belong to.
+- If only part of a migration batch belongs to a newer release, split that batch into a separate migration entry instead of relabeling the earlier release.
+- Do not bump migration versions just because the app version changed.
+
+## Before finishing a versioned change
+
+- Confirm the package version, changelog entry, and migration tags are consistent.
+- If a release note mentions a feature or fix, make sure the matching code path or migration block is tagged to the same release.

 All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
 
-## Unreleased
+## 2.5.13 - 2026-08-05
 
-- No unreleased changes recorded yet.
+### Fixed
+
+- Slide and template save forms now allow larger multipart text fields, so rich region content no longer trips Multer's default field-value limit.
+
+## 2.5.12 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The auth route test now loads the alias bootstrap before the login flow, so isolated test runs do not depend on prior module initialization.
+- The slide editor now blocks pasted data images in TinyMCE so image content must come through the upload flow.
+
+## 2.5.11 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Single-slide playlists now re-render the active slide immediately when a refresh arrives, instead of waiting for a transition that never happens.
+- Playlist create and update flows now redirect to the canonical `/playlists/:id/edit` path after saving.
+- Slide preview popups now keep rich-text spacing and line height consistent with the editor preview.
+
+## 2.5.10 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Slide editor rich-text updates now keep the hidden field and preview state in sync after inline formatting actions.
+
+## 2.5.9 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Screen playlist refreshes now wait until the next slide transition before applying a pending update, so one-slide playlists do not swap immediately during a refresh.
+- Playlist rows now show the mute control for any playable media region, including RTMP slides, instead of only video regions.
+
+## 2.5.8 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- MariaDB migrations now retry alternate foreign-key constraint names when screen-to-player constraint creation reports a duplicate-key error.
+
+## 2.5.7 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- QR template backgrounds now use a single solid color only, and the editor no longer exposes a background gradient mode.
+
+## 2.5.6 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Added
+
+- Onboarding QR rendering now uses the vendored `qr-code-styling` library directly, with a wider quiet zone and extra frame padding so the code does not clip at the corners.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The shared QR helper now renders `qr-code-styling` in Node without the old `qrcode` or `qrcode-generator` packages.
+- The onboarding QR endpoint now generates the styled QR at request time, and the player onboarding page requests it only after confirming the player is not already onboarded.
+- Playlist QR preview backfill now uses the same styled QR helper as onboarding, so playlist snapshots and generated previews stay consistent.
+- The onboarding QR layout now keeps the code inset within its frame so the corners have more breathing room.
+
+## 2.5.5 - 2026-08-04
+
+### Added
+
+- A shared Dupe flow was added to most admin create pages and list views, including roles, users, playlists, slides, templates, canvas sizes, announcements, and supported data sources.
+
+### Changed
+
+- RBAC roles now include a Dupe action that opens a copy-on-create flow with the selected permissions already populated.
+- Users now include a Dupe action that opens the add-user form with the copied name and roles, while leaving the username blank for a new login.
+- User usernames are now editable from the admin users section, while the personal account password page remains unchanged.
+- The users form now allows creating an account without assigning any roles.
+- Save and New on the users form now returns to the blank create page instead of falling back to the list.
+- Password updates now accept a slightly lighter policy of 10 characters with 3 of 4 character classes, and the account and user password forms now describe the updated requirement.
+- The slide rich-text editor now groups underline, strikethrough, subscript, and superscript into a single split-button control, with the main button using the underline icon and the dropdown exposing the other text-format actions.
+- Chip formatting in the slide rich-text editor now uses a reusable inline-format helper so the chip action continues to sync and mark the editor as edited when applied.
+- RSS, API, and timetable placeholder help text now uses the same transform examples, spacing, and typography as the timetable version, with the hint shown after the visible placeholders and before any overflow disclosure.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Cells and inputs now enforce route-specific character limits on the form itself and on the matching save paths, so overlong values no longer fail at submit time.
+- Playlist rows now use a grip drag handle with separate up/down move controls, and the drag grip cursor now changes to grab and grabbing on hover and drag.
+- Playlist duration inputs now respect a min-only limit correctly, so the shared limiter no longer coerces values down to 0 when no max attribute is present.
+- Playlist row video and mute toggles now use the correct filled/outline Bootstrap button styles for their current state without relying on the `active` class.
+- Slides table search now only matches slide titles and template names, and no longer searches within slide content.
+- Banner marquee text now measures its real cycle width so top-banner and lower-third announcements loop continuously instead of resetting from a fixed start position.
+- Slide editor template selection now stays editable on blank slides until the user makes a real content edit, so TinyMCE hydration no longer locks the canvas immediately.
+- Slide editor region cards now share a common header shell, so the image and video chips stay aligned with the other region types on the Video Webpage and HTML RTMP pages.
+- Firefox preview popup now centers the preview canvas in normal layout flow and scales from the center, so the popup preview lines up correctly in Chrome and Firefox.
+- Canvas size edits now keep the width and height fields locked while the size is in use, and oversized canvas dimensions are rejected at 16384 instead of reaching the save path.
+- Schedule rules now start collapsed by default, use the built-in card collapse behavior, and keep validation messages visible without re-highlighting empty paired inputs.
+- Timetable group deletes now scan slide content for the actual `timetable_group_id` field, so groups that are still referenced by slides stay protected from deletion.
+- Timetable add and edit pages now keep cancel confirmation tied to timetable entry edits, so changes inside the entries table are treated as unsaved form changes.
+- Screen add and edit pages now keep the Player URL box in a stable two-column layout, so switching between the forms no longer causes the page to jump or shift.
+- Screen add pages now show the secondary Save and Close / Save and New actions, and screen edit delete actions now prompt for confirmation before removing the screen.
+- Admin user password resets now keep the selected user in view by returning to that user's edit page after saving.
+- Account password saves now refresh the page after the success toast is queued so the confirmation message stays visible.
+- Shared toast handling now preserves a pending success message across the redirect so refreshes do not drop the confirmation banner.
+- Announcement create and edit pages now keep the save action buttons visible, and the edit-page delete action now prompts for confirmation before deleting.
+- Active announcements are now blocked from deletion with a clearer edit-page message that explains why.
+- Slide template create now shows the background image remove button and clear flag, matching the edit page behavior.
+- Template create now exposes Save & Close and Save & New actions, and template edit delete actions now use the shared action-button helper with a confirmation prompt instead of a separate hidden form.
+- The advanced animation modal now shows intro, outro, and loop durations as 1-200% fields, with 100% saving back as 1000ms.
+- The advanced animation modal now hard-limits repeat counts to 999 so attention-seeker animations cannot be configured with unbounded loops.
+- Template editor region boxes now rerender when the canvas or stage resizes, and region width/height changes now keep the lock ratio, stay within the canvas, and shift back on-canvas instead of spilling over.
+- Background tasks and scheduled tasks now render timestamps in 24-hour format, and the background task queue keeps a confirmation prompt before clearing finished items.
+
+## 2.5.4 - 2026-08-03
+
+### Changed
+
+- The API source bearer token field now uses a password input with a right-side toggle to show or hide the token.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- QR code regions now render at the correct size in the slide editor preview, and the QR chip header now matches the other region cards.
+- The dashboard onboarding link now uses the player public base URL stored in the database instead of a `/screen/...` URL.
+
+## 2.5.3 - 2026-08-03
+
+### Changed
+
+- The user edit page delete action now shows a confirmation prompt before removing an account.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Schedule modal cancel now restores the original rule set instead of keeping edits made after the modal opened.
+
+## 2.5.2 - 2026-08-03
+
+### Changed
+
+- Player page auth now writes a cookie for websocket reuse, and player and announcement sockets accept that cookie so they no longer depend on query-string tokens.
+- RSS and API region placeholder panels now use shared field-aware chip rendering, with updated spacing and defaults across the slide editor.
+- RTMP regions now default audio to enabled in the editor, and the slide rich-text editor no longer allows anchor tags.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Player websocket auth now falls back to the `pulse_page_auth` cookie when the auth query parameter is unavailable.
+
+## 2.5.1 - 2026-08-03
+
+### Added
+
+- Template regions now include a dedicated advanced animation modal for editing intro, outro, and Attention Seekers settings directly.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Template region animation settings now store as a single JSON object with `intro`, `outro`, and `loop` keys.
+- The template editor advanced animation field now edits the JSON object directly instead of separate preset selects.
+- Animate.css is now loaded from vendored assets so template previews and player rendering use the local copy.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Existing databases now migrate legacy animation columns into `animation_json` and then drop the old columns.
+
+## 2.5.0 - 2026-08-03
+
+### Added
+
+- Template regions now support intro, exit, and Attention Seekers animation presets in the editor, with in-canvas preview controls.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The template editor now locks editing while preview playback is running so animation changes are easier to inspect.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Existing databases now receive the template region animation columns through the versioned migration path.
+
+## 2.4.2 - 2026-08-02
+
+### Added
+
+- Screen-level controls are now shown on the dashboard for quicker access to screen actions.
+- Connected clients can now be moved to another screen from the dashboard, and the player redirects to the new screen after the binding updates.
+- Playlist slide config now includes a mute toggle for video and RTMP items, and the player honors the stored mute state during playback.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Playlist canvas lock now stores `canvas_id` on `c_playlists` and links directly to `c_canvas_sizes`.
+- Playlist add and edit now keep the selected canvas size tied to the playlist form flow, so canvas changes stay consistent while editing.
+- RBAC permission sections now follow the same order as the admin sidebar, with section spacing kept in 10-point increments.
+- Admin add/edit pages now share form view-model helpers and common form shells across data sources, signage, RBAC, and user settings, reducing duplicated template markup.
+- Playlist editing now goes through a shared form page helper with dedicated schedule-rule cards and drag sorting, keeping slide rows and rule state in sync.
+- Data sources now use per-section route modules for API sources, RSS feeds, and timetables, while the shared controller only keeps the root `/data-sources` redirect.
+- The consolidated admin shell also refreshed shared layout, toast, login, and error rendering to match the newer helper registration flow.
+- Connected client row actions now use consistent icon-and-label buttons for pause and blackout across the server-rendered page and live dashboard updates.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Canvas filtering for playlist slides now follows the selected canvas size id instead of a derived signature.
+- Saving API sources and RSS feeds no longer throws an internal server error after the route split, because the shared data-source refresh task service is wired through the web bootstrap again.
+
+## 2.4.1 - 2026-08-02
+
+### Changed
+
+- Playlist canvas size is now stored on `c_playlists.canvas_signature` and the migration backfills existing single-canvas playlists.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Playlist canvas sizing no longer relies on startup bootstrap logic.
+
+## 2.4.0 - 2026-08-02
+
+### Added
+
+- Playlist slide scheduling now supports multiple OR-ed rule blocks instead of a single date-or-time schedule.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Playlist slide schedule data now stores rule sets in `schedule_rules_json`, and the migration backfills legacy schedule columns before dropping them.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Legacy `schedule_mode`, date, time, and day columns are removed from `c_playlist_slides` after the new rule schema is installed.
+
+## 2.3.0 - 2026-08-02
+
+### Added
+
+- Shared add/edit form templates now cover API sources, RSS feeds, announcements, canvas sizes, screens, and templates, reducing duplicate page markup.
+- Schedule data source CRUD was added for grouped events in the admin UI.
+- The schedule region was added for rendering grouped events in slides and player playback.
+- Schedule data now flows through `scheduleGroups` in the slide editor and player payloads, letting the schedule region show upcoming or current entries from a selected group.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Admin save actions were standardized around the shared `saveActionButtons` helper, including save, save-and-close, save-and-new, cancel, and delete controls.
+- Admin routes and page renderers now route through the shared form/view helpers instead of separate add/edit templates for the refactored sections.
+- Toast, error, login, and shared layout rendering were refreshed to line up with the consolidated admin shell and helper registration flow.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Canvas size defaults now seed only once during bootstrap when `c_canvas_sizes` is empty, instead of running from the schema layout path on every startup.
+- The schema bootstrap file is now limited to table layout definitions, with one-time seed data handled by the bootstrap layer.
+
+## 2.2.2 - 2026-08-01
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The theme bootstrap now resolves saved `auto` to an actual dark or light value on first paint, so explicit dark mode no longer flashes white while the page loads.
+- The shared app header is now sticky so the top navigation stays visible while scrolling.
+
+## 2.2.1 - 2026-08-01
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Managed-font source files are now tracked correctly so packaged releases include the `src/web/lib/media` module instead of shipping a broken build.
+
+## 2.2.0 - 2026-08-01
+
+### Added
+
+- Announcement management is now wired for the admin UI and player overlay, with color, template, and expiry controls.
+- Time / Date regions now render live in the editor and player.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Announcement lists now default-sort by Description and show the affected screens for each announcement.
+- Role add and edit pages now include a Cancel action alongside the save buttons.
+- Announcement publishing now only targets explicitly assigned screens; unassigned announcements no longer publish globally.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Announcement screen labels now correctly distinguish No Screens, partial assignments, and All Screens.
+- Role duplicate-name validation on edit now checks the correct RBAC table.
+
+## 2.1.1 - 2026-08-01
+
+### Added
+
+- API source latest-response viewing now supports collapsing and expanding all JSON sections from the edit page.
+- Placeholder transforms now support basic string helpers like `.upper()`, `.title()`, and `.lower()`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The API source add page now matches the edit page’s section titles and layout more closely.
+- API source placeholder suggestions now stay leaf-only, so container paths and arrays are no longer suggested as placeholders.
+- Slide editor and player placeholder resolution now share the same parsing and transform logic.
+- API source and RSS editor helper text now shows the new placeholder transform syntax.
+- API sources, RSS feeds, slides, users, and roles now render their delete actions in a disabled outlined-danger state when deletion is blocked, matching the rest of the admin tables.
+- The users edit page no longer wraps all sections in one outer card, so the profile, password, and roles cards render as separate sections.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- API source item-path overrides continue to treat the final path as an array source, while nested object fields remain available for placeholders.
+- The API source latest-response panel now opens as a tree view by default instead of a flat JSON blob.
+
+## 2.1.0 - 2026-07-30
+
+### Added
+
+- Screen and dashboard player links now render the full player URL instead of only the player base host.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The player registry now uses a singleton `d_players` row and `d_screens.player_id` points at that shared player record.
+- Player startup is now responsible for creating the shared player record, while onboarding and state polling no longer create extra player rows.
+- The screen/player binding path was simplified so opening a screen binds it to the shared player record without trying to re-register the player.
+- Added notes near the singleton-player code paths to make the future multi-player migration work easier to revisit.
+- Managed fonts now have dedicated editor/player sync handling, including a scheduled font sweep, sorted font-family lists, the TinyMCE fullscreen button, and shared font stylesheet loading in the WYSIWYG editor.
+- Text and RSS region types now own their own default style and fallback behavior instead of relying on shared slide helper fallbacks.
+- Image and video region handling was also pushed further into modular per-type modules, keeping their editor, preview, and player logic closer to the region itself instead of the shared slide helper layer.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Removed several onboarding and runtime code paths that were still inserting or refreshing `d_players` rows during normal player playback.
+- Fixed the screen-binding flow so it no longer writes a device UUID into `d_screens.player_id`, which avoided foreign key errors under the shared-player model.
+
+## 2.0.0 - 2026-07-28
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- Breaking database schema changes were introduced in this release; existing databases may require migration or recreation before upgrading.
+
+### Added
+
+- Broader player and admin release coverage across onboarding, playlist playback, background task handling, and media-region support.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The database bootstrap and migration flow were reorganized, with shared DB helpers split out to support the newer schema layout.
+- Admin and signage views were updated around the newer list, playlist, and RBAC behavior, including playlist scheduling and screen/client actions.
+- Player runtime, onboarding, and region rendering were tightened so HTML, image, RSS, RTMP, text, video, and webpage regions follow the newer playback flow.
+- Background task, upload sync, and data-source refresh handling were refined across the web app and startup paths.
+- Docker, environment, README, and websocket/api documentation were refreshed to match the current release structure.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Client name checks, playlist editing, and slide/media synchronization paths were adjusted to better preserve existing references during admin and player updates.
+
+## 1.5.16 - 2026-07-26
+
+### Added
+
+- Background task handling was split into dedicated handler and scheduling modules, with startup data-source refreshes and unused-upload cleanup wired through the shared setup flow.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The admin shell, shared theme, and toast presentation were refreshed to match the newer layout and notification styling.
+- Playlist scheduling now handles video-duration toggles and already-assigned slides more clearly in the picker and editor UI.
+- RBAC and settings views were updated to align with the revised admin layout and shared table behavior.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Template and slide thumbnail refreshes now run through the background task queue so template-wide thumbnail regeneration stays consistent.
+
+## 1.5.15 - 2026-07-26
+
+### Changed
+
+- Player slide transitions now start and pause video playback around the fade window so video regions stay aligned with the slide boundary.
+- Dashboard action cards now use a three-column grid on wider layouts.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Slide video duration probes now preserve sub-second precision instead of rounding to whole seconds.
+
+## 1.5.14 - 2026-07-26
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Dashboard client action icons now render valid Bootstrap Icon classes without duplicating the `bi-` prefix.
+
+## 1.5.13 - 2026-07-26
+
+### Added
+
+- Shared table helpers for pagination, search, and sorting across the admin and signage views.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Refreshed the shared admin shell and moved common UI behavior into shared layout and helper modules.
+- Reworked dashboard, background tasks, RBAC, and signage list pages to use the newer shared table and state flow.
+- Updated the admin and player branding assets and tightened the page scripts around the new layout structure.
+
+## 1.5.12 - 2026-07-26
+
+### Changed
+
+- Shared web UI helpers are now loaded once in the admin shell and reused across the dashboard, admin, and template editor.
+- Template lists now show slide counts, and the template editor tracks which regions are already in use.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Template editing now blocks removal of regions that are still referenced by slides.
+
+## 1.5.11 - 2026-07-26
+
+### Added
+
+- Video regions are now supported end to end, including player rendering, admin editing, playlist scheduling, and player sync.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The slide, template, and playlist flows were updated so video content can be created, configured, and scheduled alongside existing region types.
+- Player rendering and related media handling now recognize the new video region implementation.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Region and upload handling were adjusted so video media syncs cleanly through the player and web admin paths.
+
+## 1.5.10 - 2026-07-26
+
+### Added
+
+- Scheduled background tasks now have their own settings page, separate permission gate, and manual run action alongside the main queue view.
+- The slide editor now includes a refreshed preview/sidebar layout and a cropper-based image upload flow.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Background task and admin list views now use richer pagination and filtering so queue state, task sources, and recurring jobs stay easier to navigate.
+- The admin shell and shared styling were refreshed to support the updated settings pages, slide editor layout, and task table presentation.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Upload sync and slide thumbnail refresh handling were tightened so slide changes queue follow-up work more reliably.

+Pulse Signage is a self-hosted digital signage platform built for teams that want clear, flexible control over what appears on every screen.
 
-It runs as two connected services:
+It gives you one place to manage playlists, slides, templates, screen assignments, announcements, data-driven content, and live player control without handing that workflow to a third-party service.
 
-- the web admin app for managing content and screens
+## Why It Stands Out
-- the player app that shows the current signage on each screen and listens for live updates
 
-## What You Can Do
+- Keep signage under your own control.
+- Build polished screen experiences with reusable templates and playlists.
+- Push announcements, schedules, RSS feeds, API content, and other dynamic content to screens.
+- See what is live, what is queued, and what needs attention from a single admin dashboard.
+- Use the same system for everyday signage, timed messages, and more structured information displays.
 
-- Sign in to the admin dashboard
+## What It Handles
-- Create and organize playlists and slides
-- Design reusable templates and canvas sizes
-- Register screens and assign playlists to them
-- Manage roles and permissions for the admin web UI
-- Upload images and other media for use in slides and templates
-- View live screen connections and send player commands
 
-Admin permissions are split into CRUD actions per section, so you can grant read-only, editor, creator, or delete access separately.
+- Screens and playlist assignments.
+- Slides, templates, and canvas sizes.
+- Announcements and screen-specific targeting.
+- RSS feeds, API sources, and schedule-based content.
+- Roles and permissions for admin access.
+- Background tasks and scheduled refresh jobs.
+- Player onboarding and live playback control.
 
-## Documentation
+## Simple Deployment
 
-Player-facing API details live in [docs/api.md](docs/api.md). It covers the player HTTP endpoints for screen playback, playlist data, connections, and commands.
+Pulse Signage ships with a Docker Compose stack for the published image:
 
-Player websocket behavior lives in [docs/websocket.md](docs/websocket.md). It covers the player control socket, snapshot stream, and the command/message shapes the player accepts.
+- Published-image stack: `docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d`
 
-## What You Need
+Use this stack when you want to run the tagged image instead of building from source.
 
-- Docker and Docker Compose
+## Environment File
-- A MySQL database
 
-## First-Time Setup
+The compose files read from a root `.env` file. Start by copying `.env.example` to `.env`, then adjust the values for your setup.
 
-When the app starts for the first time, it creates the database tables it needs and adds a default admin account if no users exist yet.
+The variables are split by who uses them:
+
+Shared across the stack:
+
+- `PULSE_SIGNAGE_IMAGE`
+- `PULSE_SIGNAGE_SHARED_SECRET`
+
+Web container:
+
+- `SESSION_MAX_AGE_DAYS`
+- `DEFAULT_ADMIN_USERNAME`
+- `DEFAULT_ADMIN_NAME`
+- `DEFAULT_ADMIN_PASSWORD`
+- `PASSWORD_HASH_ITERATIONS`
+
+Player container:
+
+- `PLAYER_PUBLIC_BASE_URL`
+- `PLAYER_INTERNAL_BASE_URL`
+
+MySQL container:
+
+- `DB_HOST`
+- `DB_PORT`
+- `DB_NAME`
+- `DB_USER`
+- `DB_PASSWORD`
+- `MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD`
+
+`DB_HOST`, `DB_PORT`, `DB_NAME`, `DB_USER`, and `DB_PASSWORD` are shared in practice because both app containers talk to the same database service.
+
+`PLAYER_INTERNAL_BASE_URL` is used by the web side for server-to-player calls, while `PLAYER_PUBLIC_BASE_URL` is used for browser-facing player links.
+
+## First-Time Use
+
+The first startup seeds a default admin account if the database is empty.
 
 - Username: `admin`
 - Password: `admin`
 
-The first admin account is placed into the built-in `Administrators` role, which has full web-admin access through the CRUD permissions.
+## In Practice
 
-You can change the initial admin credentials with these optional environment variables:
+Pulse Signage is designed to feel focused and reliable rather than heavy or noisy. It works well when you want a clean internal signage system for offices, venues, dashboards, or any environment where screens need to stay up to date without a lot of manual effort.
 
-- `DEFAULT_ADMIN_USERNAME`
+The player and admin pieces stay linked, so changes made in the dashboard can flow out to screens quickly and consistently.
-- `DEFAULT_ADMIN_NAME`
-- `DEFAULT_ADMIN_PASSWORD`
-
-## Configuration
-
-The app reads its settings from environment variables.
-
-### Database Connection
-
-- `DB_HOST` - MySQL host, default `127.0.0.1`
-- `DB_PORT` - MySQL port, default `3306`
-- `DB_NAME` - database name, default `signage`
-- `DB_USER` - database user, default `signage_user`
-- `DB_PASSWORD` - database password, default `signage_password`
-
-### Web Admin App
-
-- `WEB_PORT` - admin app port, default `3000`
-- `PLAYER_INTERNAL_BASE_URL` - player address used by the server, default `http://player:3001`
-- `PLAYER_PUBLIC_BASE_URL` - player address shown in browser links, default `http://localhost:3001`
-- `PULSE_SIGNAGE_SHARED_SECRET` - shared secret used to sign player page API fetches and server-to-player requests; page tokens auto-renew while the page stays active and request signatures must be fresh; leave unset to keep the auth checks disabled for compatibility
-
-### Player App
-
-- `PLAYER_PORT` - player port, default `3001`
-
-## Docker Compose
-
-The repository includes a `docker-compose.yml` file that starts three services:
-
-- `web` - the admin app on port `3000`
-- `player` - the signage player on port `3001`
-- `mysql` - the database on port `3306`
-
-By default, `web` and `player` use the published image from `git.lzstealth.com/lzstealth/pulse-signage:latest`. You can point both services at a specific release by setting `PULSE_SIGNAGE_IMAGE` to a tagged image such as `git.lzstealth.com/lzstealth/pulse-signage:v1.0.0`.
-
-The Compose file also defines a shared `media` volume for stored assets and a `mysql_data` volume for database persistence.
-
-In Docker, media storage is controlled by the `media` volume mount at `/app/media`.
-Outside Docker, the web app and player do not have to use the same upload location or even the same server, as long as each service can access its own configured media path.
-
-## Important Notes
-
-- The web app must be able to reach the player through `PLAYER_INTERNAL_BASE_URL`.
-- When running in Docker, that value should point to the Docker service name, not `localhost`.
-- If `PULSE_SIGNAGE_SHARED_SECRET` is set, the web and player containers must use the same value, and any reverse proxy in front of the player must forward `/api/media/...` without rewriting the path.
-- Uploaded media is stored separately from the application source, so make sure it is backed up if you are not using Docker volumes.
-- The player page uses the browser Screen Wake Lock API when available, but kiosk mode and OS sleep settings still matter because the browser can deny or release the wake lock.

+
+- `id`, `task_key`, `task_type`, `title`, `category`, `status`, `payload_json`, `metadata_json`, `attempts`, `created_at`, `created_by`, `started_at`, `finished_at`, `error_message`
+- Indexed by `status`, `task_key`, and `task_type`.
+
+## Notes
+
+- The schema is initialized with `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`, so new installs can start from an empty database.
+- `src/db/bootstrap.js` seeds the canvas size defaults, default permissions, and the default administrator role.
+- The migration module stays in place for future releases, but this version treats the current schema as the install baseline.
