+Create the content_jobs DB schema, shared constants, storage constant, and service layer (store + runner) that form the foundation for all async content generation in v1.7.
+
+Purpose: Phase 40 is the hard dependency for phases 41-45. This plan establishes the data model and async execution engine so Plan 02 can wire HTTP routes on top.
+Output: Schema file, two migrations, updated constants, contentJobStore service, contentJobRunner service.

+ - content_jobs.ts exports contentJobs pgTable with columns: id (uuid PK defaultRandom), companyId (uuid FK companies), jobType (text), status (text default "queued"), input (jsonb default {}), resultAssetId (uuid nullable), errorMessage (text nullable), sourceTaskId (text nullable), startedAt (timestamp tz nullable), finishedAt (timestamp tz nullable), createdAt (timestamp tz defaultNow), updatedAt (timestamp tz defaultNow)
+ - content_jobs.ts exports CONTENT_JOB_STATUSES = ["queued", "running", "done", "failed"] as const and ContentJobStatus type
+ - content_jobs.ts defines indexes: content_jobs_company_status_idx on (companyId, status), content_jobs_company_created_idx on (companyId, createdAt)
+ - assets.ts gains sourceTaskId: text("source_task_id") column (nullable, no FK)
+ - LIVE_EVENT_TYPES array includes "content_job.queued", "content_job.running", "content_job.done", "content_job.failed"
+ - MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES exported from attachment-types.ts, defaults to 500 * 1024 * 1024
+
+
+ 1. Create `packages/db/src/schema/content_jobs.ts`:
+ - Import pgTable, uuid, text, timestamp, jsonb, index from "drizzle-orm/pg-core"
+ - Import companies from "./companies.js"
+ - Export `CONTENT_JOB_STATUSES = ["queued", "running", "done", "failed"] as const`
+ - Export `type ContentJobStatus = (typeof CONTENT_JOB_STATUSES)[number]`
+ - Export `contentJobs` pgTable "content_jobs" with exact columns from behavior block
+ - Add two indexes in the third argument: `content_jobs_company_status_idx` on (companyId, status), `content_jobs_company_created_idx` on (companyId, createdAt)
+
+ 2. Modify `packages/db/src/schema/assets.ts`:
+ - Add column after `createdByUserId`: `sourceTaskId: text("source_task_id"),` (nullable, no FK, no default)
+ - No other changes
+
+ 3. Modify `packages/db/src/schema/index.ts`:
+ - Add line: `export { contentJobs, CONTENT_JOB_STATUSES } from "./content_jobs.js";`
+ - Place it after the `assets` export line
+
+ 4. Modify `packages/shared/src/constants.ts`:
+ - Add four entries to LIVE_EVENT_TYPES array before the `] as const;` closing:
+ `"content_job.queued",`
+ `"content_job.running",`
+ `"content_job.done",`
+ `"content_job.failed",`
+
+ 5. Modify `server/src/attachment-types.ts`:
+ - Add after the existing `MAX_ATTACHMENT_BYTES` export:
+ ```
+ export const MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES =
+ Number(process.env.PAPERCLIP_GENERATED_ASSET_MAX_BYTES) || 500 * 1024 * 1024;
+ ```
+
+ 6. Generate migrations:
+ - Run `cd /opt/nexus && pnpm db:generate`
+ - Verify two new migration files appear (0056 for content_jobs, 0057 for assets source_task_id — or combined)
+ - Run `pnpm db:migrate` to apply
+
+ Anti-patterns to avoid:
+ - Do NOT add a FK constraint for sourceTaskId — task IDs are string identifiers, not UUID FKs
+ - Do NOT add resultAssetId as a FK to assets — it's populated after asset creation, circular FK causes issues
+

+ - contentJobStore(db) returns { create, getById, listByCompany, transition }
+ - create(companyId, { jobType, input, sourceTaskId }) inserts and returns the row
+ - getById(id) returns job or null
+ - listByCompany(companyId) returns jobs ordered by createdAt desc
+ - transition(id, patch) updates the row with patch + updatedAt = new Date()
+ - contentJobRunner.dispatch(db, storage, job) fires and forgets — never awaited by caller
+ - Runner transitions job to "running" then to "done" or "failed"
+ - Runner publishes content_job.running, then content_job.done or content_job.failed via publishLiveEvent
+ - Runner always awaits DB write BEFORE publishing live event (prevents stale reads)
+ - On "done": runner calls storage.putFile with namespace "generated", then assetService.create with sourceTaskId, then transitions to done with resultAssetId
+ - On error: runner transitions to failed with errorMessage
+ - Runner has a renderContent stub that returns a fixed test buffer (placeholder for phase 41+)
+ - Runner checks MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES before calling putFile
+
+
+ 1. Create `server/src/services/content-job-store.ts`:
+ ```typescript
+ import { eq, desc } from "drizzle-orm";
+ import type { Db } from "@paperclipai/db";
+ import { contentJobs } from "@paperclipai/db";
+
+ export function contentJobStore(db: Db) {
+ return {
+ create: (companyId: string, data: { jobType: string; input: Record; sourceTaskId: string | null }) =>
+ db.insert(contentJobs).values({ companyId, ...data }).returning().then((r) => r[0]),
+
+ getById: (id: string) =>
+ db.select().from(contentJobs).where(eq(contentJobs.id, id)).then((r) => r[0] ?? null),
+
+ listByCompany: (companyId: string) =>
+ db.select().from(contentJobs)
+ .where(eq(contentJobs.companyId, companyId))
+ .orderBy(desc(contentJobs.createdAt)),
+
+ transition: (id: string, patch: Partial) =>
+ db.update(contentJobs).set({ ...patch, updatedAt: new Date() }).where(eq(contentJobs.id, id)),
+ };
+ }
+ ```
+
+ 2. Create `server/src/services/content-job-runner.ts`:
+ - Import publishLiveEvent from "./live-events.js"
+ - Import contentJobStore from "./content-job-store.js"
+ - Import assetService from "./assets.js"
+ - Import MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES from "../attachment-types.js"
+ - Import type { Db } from "@paperclipai/db"
+ - Import type { StorageService } from "../storage/types.js"
+ - Import type { contentJobs } from "@paperclipai/db"
+
+ Define type `ContentJob = typeof contentJobs.$inferSelect`
+
+ Export `renderContent` stub function:
+ ```typescript
+ export async function renderContent(
+ _jobType: string,
+ _input: Record,
+ ): Promise<{ filename: string; contentType: string; buffer: Buffer }> {
+ // Stub — phases 41-45 will add real renderers keyed by jobType
+ return {
+ filename: "placeholder.txt",
+ contentType: "text/plain",
+ buffer: Buffer.from("placeholder output"),
+ };
+ }
+ ```
+
+ Export `contentJobRunner` object with a single `dispatch` method:
+ ```typescript
+ export const contentJobRunner = {
+ dispatch(db: Db, storage: StorageService, job: ContentJob): void {
+ void runJob(db, storage, job);
+ },
+ };
+ ```
+
+ Implement `async function runJob(db, storage, job)`:
+ - Create store via `contentJobStore(db)`
+ - Transition to "running" with startedAt: new Date(), then publishLiveEvent type "content_job.running" payload { jobId: job.id }
+ - Try block:
+ - Call renderContent(job.jobType, job.input as Record)
+ - Check result.buffer.byteLength <= MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES, throw if exceeded
+ - Call storage.putFile({ companyId: job.companyId, namespace: "generated", originalFilename: result.filename, contentType: result.contentType, body: result.buffer })
+ - Call assetService(db).create(job.companyId, { ...stored, sourceTaskId: job.sourceTaskId, createdByAgentId: null, createdByUserId: null })
+ - Transition to "done" with resultAssetId: asset.id, finishedAt: new Date()
+ - publishLiveEvent type "content_job.done" payload { jobId: job.id, assetId: asset.id }
+ - Catch block:
+ - Extract errorMessage from err
+ - Transition to "failed" with errorMessage, finishedAt: new Date()
+ - publishLiveEvent type "content_job.failed" payload { jobId: job.id, errorMessage }
+
+ 3. Modify `server/src/services/index.ts`:
+ - Add: `export { contentJobStore } from "./content-job-store.js";`
+ - Add: `export { contentJobRunner } from "./content-job-runner.js";`
+
+ Anti-patterns to avoid:
+ - Do NOT await dispatch in the caller — it must be fire-and-forget (`void`)
+ - Do NOT publish live event before DB write completes — always `await store.transition(...)` first
+ - Do NOT import multer anywhere in runner code — runner writes directly via storage.putFile
+
+
+ cd /opt/nexus && pnpm tsc --noEmit --project server/tsconfig.json
+
+
+ - server/src/services/content-job-store.ts contains `export function contentJobStore(db: Db)`
+ - server/src/services/content-job-store.ts contains `db.insert(contentJobs).values(`
+ - server/src/services/content-job-store.ts contains `transition:`
+ - server/src/services/content-job-runner.ts contains `export const contentJobRunner`

+# Phase 40 Plan 01: Schema, constants, and services for content jobs Summary
+
+**One-liner:** content_jobs table + async job runner with store/runner services using fire-and-forget dispatch and ordered DB-before-event lifecycle.
+
+## What Was Built
+
+The foundational data model and async execution engine for v1.7 content generation. Phase 40 Plan 01 establishes:
+
+1. **DB schema** (`content_jobs` table) with full lifecycle columns and two composite indexes for efficient querying by company+status and company+createdAt.
+2. **assets.sourceTaskId** — nullable text column allowing generated assets to be traced back to their originating conversation task.
+3. **LIVE_EVENT_TYPES** — extended with `content_job.queued`, `content_job.running`, `content_job.done`, `content_job.failed` for real-time job progress.
+4. **MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES** — 500MB constant (vs 10MB upload limit) for generated/namespace storage, configurable via `PAPERCLIP_GENERATED_ASSET_MAX_BYTES`.
+5. **contentJobStore** — CRUD service with create/getById/listByCompany/transition operations against the content_jobs table.
+6. **contentJobRunner** — async fire-and-forget dispatcher that transitions jobs through running→done/failed, stores generated assets with sourceTaskId, and publishes live events after each DB write.
+
+## Tasks Completed
+
+| Task | Name | Commit | Files |
+|------|------|--------|-------|
+| 1 | Schema, constants, and migrations | 8bf4bd91 | content_jobs.ts, assets.ts, index.ts, constants.ts, attachment-types.ts, migration 0046 |
+| 2 | contentJobStore and contentJobRunner | b359fec9 | content-job-store.ts, content-job-runner.ts, services/index.ts |

+## Verification
+
+- `pnpm tsc --noEmit --project packages/db/tsconfig.json` — PASS
+- `pnpm tsc --noEmit --project packages/shared/tsconfig.json` — PASS
+- `pnpm tsc --noEmit --project server/tsconfig.json` — PASS
+- Migration file `0046_tense_randall.sql` generated with correct DDL
+
+## Deviations from Plan
+
+### Migration apply limitation (pre-existing blocker, out of scope)
+
+**Found during:** Task 1
+
+**Issue:** The main repo (`/opt/nexus`) has pre-existing duplicate migration files (`0047_nebulous_klaw.sql` and `0047_overjoyed_groot.sql`, `0048_add_chat_messages_updated_at.sql` and `0048_flashy_marrow.sql`) from parallel agent work. The `check:migrations` script prevents both `db:generate` and `db:migrate` in the main repo.
+
+**Impact:** Migration `0046_tense_randall.sql` was generated successfully from the worktree's clean migration state but could not be applied via `pnpm db:migrate`.
+
+**Resolution:** Migration will be applied when the worktree is merged and the duplicate migration numbering conflict is resolved. The SQL is correct and ready for execution. This is a pre-existing issue deferred to `.planning/deferred-items.md`.
+
+**Migration file content verified:** Creates `content_jobs` table, adds `source_task_id` to `assets`, creates both compound indexes, adds FK to companies.
+
+### Known Stubs
+
+**renderContent stub** in `server/src/services/content-job-runner.ts`:
+- Returns `{ filename: "placeholder.txt", contentType: "text/plain", buffer: Buffer.from("placeholder output") }` for all jobTypes
+- This is intentional — the plan specifies this as a stub for phases 41-45 to fill in real renderers keyed by jobType
+- Does NOT prevent the plan's goal (job infrastructure) from being achieved
+
+## Self-Check: PASSED

+ server/src/services/live-events.ts
+
+
+ - POST /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs: validates companyAccess, accepts { jobType, input?, sourceTaskId? }, creates job via store, calls contentJobRunner.dispatch (fire-and-forget), returns 202 { jobId, status, createdAt }
+ - GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs: validates companyAccess, returns array of jobs from store.listByCompany
+ - GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId: validates companyAccess, returns job from store.getById, 404 if not found
+ - GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId/events: validates companyAccess, sets SSE headers (Content-Type: text/event-stream, Cache-Control: no-cache, Connection: keep-alive), flushHeaders, sends current status immediately, if terminal ends, otherwise subscribes to live events filtered by content_job.* for this jobId, sends status events, ends on terminal, unsubscribes on req.close
+
+
+ 1. Create `server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts`:
+
+ ```typescript
+ import { Router } from "express";
+ import type { Db } from "@paperclipai/db";
+ import type { StorageService } from "../storage/types.js";
+ import { contentJobStore } from "../services/content-job-store.js";
+ import { contentJobRunner } from "../services/content-job-runner.js";
+ import { subscribeCompanyLiveEvents } from "../services/live-events.js";
+ import { assertCompanyAccess } from "./authz.js";
+
+ export function contentJobRoutes(db: Db, storage: StorageService) {
+ const router = Router();
+ // ... mount 4 endpoints below under /companies/:companyId/content-jobs
+ }
+ ```
+
+ POST handler at `/companies/:companyId/content-jobs`:
+ - `const companyId = req.params.companyId!;`
+ - `assertCompanyAccess(req, companyId);`
+ - Destructure `{ jobType, input, sourceTaskId }` from `req.body`
+ - Validate jobType is a non-empty string; return 400 `{ error: "jobType is required" }` if missing
+ - `const store = contentJobStore(db);`
+ - `const job = await store.create(companyId, { jobType, input: input ?? {}, sourceTaskId: sourceTaskId ?? null });`
+ - `void contentJobRunner.dispatch(db, storage, job);` (fire-and-forget, do NOT await)
+ - `res.status(202).json({ jobId: job.id, status: job.status, createdAt: job.createdAt });`
+
+ GET list handler at `/companies/:companyId/content-jobs`:
+ - assertCompanyAccess, then `const jobs = await contentJobStore(db).listByCompany(companyId);`
+ - `res.json(jobs);`
+
+ GET by ID handler at `/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId`:
+ - assertCompanyAccess, then `const job = await contentJobStore(db).getById(req.params.jobId!);`
+ - If !job, `res.status(404).json({ error: "Job not found" }); return;`
+ - `res.json(job);`
+
+ SSE handler at `/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId/events`:
+ - assertCompanyAccess
+ - Set headers: `Content-Type: text/event-stream`, `Cache-Control: no-cache`, `Connection: keep-alive`
+ - `res.flushHeaders();`
+ - Define helper: `const sendEvent = (type: string, data: unknown) => { res.write(\`event: ${type}\\ndata: ${JSON.stringify(data)}\\n\\n\`); };`
+ - Fetch current job: `const job = await contentJobStore(db).getById(req.params.jobId!);`
+ - If !job, `sendEvent("error", { error: "Job not found" }); res.end(); return;`
+ - `sendEvent("status", { jobId: job.id, status: job.status, resultAssetId: job.resultAssetId, errorMessage: job.errorMessage });`
+ - If `job.status === "done" || job.status === "failed"`, `res.end(); return;`
+ - Subscribe: `const unsubscribe = subscribeCompanyLiveEvents(companyId, (event) => { ... });`
+ - In listener: check `event.type` starts with `"content_job."` and `event.payload.jobId === req.params.jobId`
+ - Send `sendEvent("status", event.payload);`
+ - If `event.payload.status === "done" || event.payload.status === "failed"`, call `unsubscribe(); res.end();`
+ - Register cleanup: `req.on("close", () => { unsubscribe(); });`
+ - Return router
+
+ 2. Modify `server/src/app.ts`:
+ - Add import: `import { contentJobRoutes } from "./routes/content-jobs.js";`
+ - Add mount after the `api.use(voiceRoutes());` line: `api.use(contentJobRoutes(db, opts.storageService));`
+
+ Anti-patterns to avoid:
+ - Do NOT await contentJobRunner.dispatch — must be `void` (fire-and-forget)
+ - Do NOT use a polling loop in SSE — subscribe to EventEmitter
+ - Do NOT forget req.on("close") cleanup — prevents listener leaks
+
+
+ cd /opt/nexus && pnpm tsc --noEmit --project server/tsconfig.json
+
+
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `export function contentJobRoutes(db: Db, storage: StorageService)`
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `res.status(202).json(`
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `void contentJobRunner.dispatch(`
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `text/event-stream`
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `res.flushHeaders()`
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `subscribeCompanyLiveEvents(`
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `req.on("close"`
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `assertCompanyAccess(`
+ - server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts contains `jobType is required`
+ - server/src/app.ts contains `import { contentJobRoutes } from "./routes/content-jobs.js"`
+ - server/src/app.ts contains `contentJobRoutes(db, opts.storageService)`
+ - `pnpm tsc --noEmit --project server/tsconfig.json` exits 0
+
+ Four route endpoints operational: POST returns 202 with jobId, GET list returns jobs, GET by ID returns single job or 404, GET events streams SSE until terminal. All mounted in app.ts. TypeScript compiles clean.
+
+
+
+ Task 2: Integration tests for content job routes and SSE
+
+ server/src/__tests__/content-jobs-routes.test.ts,
+ server/src/__tests__/content-jobs-sse.test.ts
+
+
+ server/src/__tests__/assets.test.ts,
+ server/src/__tests__/chat-routes.test.ts,
+ server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts,
+ server/vitest.config.ts
+
+
+ - content-jobs-routes.test.ts:
+ - POST /api/companies/:id/content-jobs returns 202 with { jobId, status: "queued", createdAt } (INFRA-01)
+ - POST without jobType returns 400 (INFRA-01)
+ - POST with sourceTaskId stores it on the created job (INFRA-04)
+ - GET /api/companies/:id/content-jobs returns array of jobs (INFRA-01)
+ - GET /api/companies/:id/content-jobs/:jobId returns the job (INFRA-01)
+ - GET /api/companies/:id/content-jobs/nonexistent returns 404 (INFRA-01)
+ - content-jobs-sse.test.ts:
+ - GET /api/companies/:id/content-jobs/:jobId/events returns Content-Type text/event-stream (INFRA-02)
+ - SSE sends initial status event immediately (INFRA-02)
+ - SSE for a terminal job (done/failed) ends the stream after initial event (INFRA-02)
+
+
+ 1. Create `server/src/__tests__/content-jobs-routes.test.ts`:
+ - Follow the pattern from existing test files (assets.test.ts, chat-routes.test.ts)
+ - Import describe, it, expect, beforeAll, afterAll from "vitest"
+ - Import supertest as request
+ - Set up test app using the same test harness pattern as other test files in the codebase
+ - Read the existing test setup pattern from assets.test.ts or chat-routes.test.ts to understand how db/app is initialized in tests
+
+ Test cases:
+ a) `it("POST /api/companies/:id/content-jobs returns 202 with jobId")` — POST with jobType: "test", verify status 202, body has jobId (string), status === "queued", createdAt (string)
+ b) `it("POST without jobType returns 400")` — POST with empty body, verify status 400, body.error contains "jobType"
+ c) `it("POST with sourceTaskId persists it")` — POST with jobType: "test", sourceTaskId: "task-abc-123", then GET the job by ID, verify response body has sourceTaskId === "task-abc-123"
+ d) `it("GET /api/companies/:id/content-jobs returns job list")` — after creating a job, GET list, verify array with length >= 1
+ e) `it("GET /api/companies/:id/content-jobs/:jobId returns job")` — create job, GET by ID, verify body.id matches
+ f) `it("GET /api/companies/:id/content-jobs/nonexistent returns 404")` — GET with random UUID, verify 404
+
+ 2. Create `server/src/__tests__/content-jobs-sse.test.ts`:
+ - Same test harness setup
+
+ Test cases:
+ a) `it("SSE endpoint returns text/event-stream content type")` — GET /events, verify Content-Type header contains "text/event-stream"
+ b) `it("SSE sends initial status event")` — GET /events, read first chunk, verify it contains `event: status` and the job's current status
+ c) `it("SSE for nonexistent job sends error event")` — GET /events with random UUID, verify response contains `event: error`
+
+ Note: Follow whichever test harness setup pattern the existing tests use (createTestApp helper, beforeAll/afterAll DB setup, etc.). Read the existing test files first to match the pattern exactly.
+
+
+ cd /opt/nexus && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test:run -- src/__tests__/content-jobs-routes.test.ts src/__tests__/content-jobs-sse.test.ts
+
+
+ - server/src/__tests__/content-jobs-routes.test.ts exists with at least 50 lines

+ - server/src/__tests__/content-jobs-sse.test.ts contains `event: status`
+ - All tests pass: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test:run -- src/__tests__/content-jobs` exits 0
+
+ Integration tests cover: 202 job submission, 400 validation, sourceTaskId persistence (INFRA-04), job listing, single job retrieval, 404 missing job, SSE content-type, SSE initial event, SSE error for missing job. All tests pass.
+
+
+
+
+
+- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test:run -- src/__tests__/content-jobs` — all tests green

+# Phase 40 Plan 02: HTTP routes for content job submission and SSE progress Summary
+
+**One-liner:** Four Express route endpoints (POST 202, GET list, GET by ID, GET SSE events) wired to contentJobStore/contentJobRunner/live-events with 13 integration tests covering INFRA-01 through INFRA-04.
+
+## What Was Built
+
+HTTP API surface for content job submission and monitoring:
+
+1. **POST /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs** — validates jobType, creates job via contentJobStore, dispatches async runner (fire-and-forget), returns 202 `{ jobId, status, createdAt }`.
+2. **GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs** — lists all jobs for a company ordered by createdAt desc.
+3. **GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId** — retrieves a single job, returns 404 if not found.
+4. **GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId/events** — SSE endpoint: sets `text/event-stream` headers, flushes, sends initial status immediately, ends for terminal jobs, subscribes to `content_job.*` live events for running jobs, cleans up on `req.close`.
+5. **app.ts mount** — `contentJobRoutes(db, opts.storageService)` added after voiceRoutes.

+## Phase Requirements
+
+| ID | Description | Research Support |
+|----|-------------|------------------|
+| INFRA-01 | System processes content generation jobs asynchronously with queued → running → done/failed lifecycle | New `content_jobs` table + in-process job runner service; pattern mirrors `heartbeat_runs` / `plugin_job_runs` already in codebase |
+| INFRA-02 | System pushes job progress updates via SSE to connected clients | Existing `live-events.ts` EventEmitter + `LIVE_EVENT_TYPES` const; add new event types and a new SSE endpoint scoped to jobs |
+| INFRA-03 | Generated content stored in namespaced storage without size restrictions blocking video/images | `StorageService.putFile()` already has no server-side byte limit; add `generated/` namespace + `MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES` constant bypassing the upload-route multer limit |
+| INFRA-04 | All generated content tracked in database with source conversation linkage | Extend `assets` table with `source_task_id` column (nullable FK); assetService.create() gains optional `sourceTaskId` parameter |
+
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+Phase 40 builds the async foundation that every subsequent content generation phase depends on. The codebase already has two well-established job-tracking patterns (`heartbeat_runs`, `plugin_job_runs`) and a working SSE streaming pattern in three routes (`voice.ts`, `puter-proxy.ts`, `plugins.ts`). The work here is additive: a new `content_jobs` DB table, a minimal in-process job runner, new live-event types for SSE progress, a `generated/` storage namespace with its own size constant, and a `source_task_id` column on `assets`.
+
+No external queue infrastructure (Redis, BullMQ) is needed. The project is single-user and local-first. An in-process async runner (fire-and-forget `void Promise`) with EventEmitter fan-out — matching the heartbeat pattern — is the correct approach. If a job crashes the process restarts clean; orphan prevention is via `source_task_id` so consumers can audit.
+
+**Primary recommendation:** Mirror the `heartbeat_runs` table/service pattern for the `content_jobs` table. Use the existing `publishLiveEvent` function with new `content_job.*` event types for SSE. Add `MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES` as a server-only constant and a `generated/` namespace prefix. Add `source_task_id` to `assets` via a migration.

+## Standard Stack
+
+### Core
+
+| Library | Version (verified) | Purpose | Why Standard |
+|---------|-------------------|---------|--------------|
+| drizzle-orm | 0.38.4 (pkg) | Schema definition + query builder | Already used throughout; schema in `packages/db/src/schema/` |
+| postgres (postgres.js) | project dep | DB connection | Already used via `createDb()` in `packages/db/src/client.ts` |
+| express | project dep | HTTP layer for new routes | All routes are Express; follows existing pattern |
+| Node.js EventEmitter | built-in | In-process pub/sub for SSE fan-out | Already used in `live-events.ts`; no extra dep |
+
+### Supporting
+
+| Library | Version | Purpose | When to Use |
+|---------|---------|---------|-------------|
+| drizzle-kit | 0.31.9 (pkg) | Migration generation | Run `pnpm db:generate` after schema change |
+| vitest | project dep | Unit + integration tests | All server tests use vitest; pattern in `server/src/__tests__/` |
+| supertest | project dep | HTTP route tests | Used in `assets.test.ts`, `chat-routes.test.ts`, etc. |
+
+### Alternatives Considered
+
+| Instead of | Could Use | Tradeoff |
+|------------|-----------|----------|
+| In-process EventEmitter runner | BullMQ / Redis | Redis adds infra complexity; single-user single-process — EventEmitter is correct here |
+| In-process EventEmitter runner | Worker threads | Unnecessary isolation; jobs are I/O-bound (renders call child processes) |
+| Custom SSE endpoint | WebSocket upgrade | SSE is simpler for one-way server → client push; WebSocket already used for live events via `live-events-ws.ts` — keep SSE for job polling per existing voice/puter patterns |
+
+**Installation:** No new packages required. All tooling already present.

+
+### Pattern 1: content_jobs Table (mirrors heartbeat_runs / plugin_job_runs)
+
+**What:** A persisted lifecycle table for async content generation requests.
+**When to use:** Any content generation work that may take >200ms.
+
+```typescript
+// packages/db/src/schema/content_jobs.ts
+// Pattern source: packages/db/src/schema/heartbeat_runs.ts + plugin_jobs.ts
+
+import { pgTable, uuid, text, timestamp, jsonb, index } from "drizzle-orm/pg-core";
+import { companies } from "./companies.js";
+
+// Status lifecycle: queued → running → done | failed
+export const CONTENT_JOB_STATUSES = ["queued", "running", "done", "failed"] as const;
+export type ContentJobStatus = (typeof CONTENT_JOB_STATUSES)[number];
+
+export const contentJobs = pgTable(
+ "content_jobs",
+ {
+ id: uuid("id").primaryKey().defaultRandom(),
+ companyId: uuid("company_id").notNull().references(() => companies.id),
+ jobType: text("job_type").notNull(), // e.g. "diagram", "theme", "video"
+ status: text("status").$type().notNull().default("queued"),
+ input: jsonb("input").notNull().default({}), // renderer-specific params
+ resultAssetId: uuid("result_asset_id"), // populated on done
+ errorMessage: text("error_message"), // populated on failed
+ sourceTaskId: text("source_task_id"), // conversation task linkage (INFRA-04)
+ startedAt: timestamp("started_at", { withTimezone: true }),
+ finishedAt: timestamp("finished_at", { withTimezone: true }),
+ createdAt: timestamp("created_at", { withTimezone: true }).notNull().defaultNow(),
+ updatedAt: timestamp("updated_at", { withTimezone: true }).notNull().defaultNow(),
+ },
+ (table) => ({
+ companyStatusIdx: index("content_jobs_company_status_idx").on(table.companyId, table.status),
+ companyCreatedIdx: index("content_jobs_company_created_idx").on(table.companyId, table.createdAt),
+ }),
+);
+```
+
+### Pattern 2: HTTP 202 + Job ID Response
+
+**What:** POST to submit a job returns immediately with jobId.
+**When to use:** All content generation submissions.
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts
+router.post("/companies/:companyId/content-jobs", async (req, res) => {
+ assertCompanyAccess(req, companyId);
+ const job = await contentJobStore.create(companyId, {
+ jobType: req.body.jobType,
+ input: req.body.input ?? {},
+ sourceTaskId: req.body.sourceTaskId ?? null,
+ });
+ // Fire and forget — never await the runner here
+ void contentJobRunner.dispatch(job);
+ res.status(202).json({ jobId: job.id, status: job.status });
+});
+```
+
+### Pattern 3: SSE Job Progress (mirrors voice.ts pattern)
+
+**What:** GET endpoint that holds connection open and pushes events until terminal state.
+**When to use:** Browser polls for job progress without polling.
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts
+router.get("/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId/events", async (req, res) => {
+ assertCompanyAccess(req, companyId);
+ res.setHeader("Content-Type", "text/event-stream");
+ res.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
+ res.setHeader("Connection", "keep-alive");
+ res.flushHeaders();
+
+ const sendEvent = (type: string, data: unknown) => {
+ res.write(`event: ${type}\ndata: ${JSON.stringify(data)}\n\n`);
+ };
+
+ // Send current state immediately
+ const job = await contentJobStore.getById(jobId);
+ sendEvent("status", { jobId, status: job.status });
+ if (job.status === "done" || job.status === "failed") {
+ res.end();
+ return;
+ }
+
+ // Subscribe to live events for this job
+ const unsubscribe = subscribeCompanyLiveEvents(companyId, (event) => {
+ if (event.type === "content_job.status" && event.payload.jobId === jobId) {
+ sendEvent("status", event.payload);
+ if (event.payload.status === "done" || event.payload.status === "failed") {
+ unsubscribe();
+ res.end();
+ }
+ }
+ });
+
+ req.on("close", () => {
+ unsubscribe();
+ });
+});
+```
+
+### Pattern 4: Live Event Types for Job Progress
+
+**What:** Extend LIVE_EVENT_TYPES in shared constants.
+**When to use:** Publishing job progress from the runner.
+
+```typescript
+// packages/shared/src/constants.ts — add to LIVE_EVENT_TYPES array:
+"content_job.queued",
+"content_job.running",
+"content_job.done",
+"content_job.failed",
+```
+
+### Pattern 5: Generated Asset Storage Namespace
+
+**What:** `generated/` namespace bypasses upload-route multer limit.
+**When to use:** Writing rendered output (video, SVG, PDF, PNG) from job runner.
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/attachment-types.ts — add alongside MAX_ATTACHMENT_BYTES:
+export const MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES =
+ Number(process.env.PAPERCLIP_GENERATED_ASSET_MAX_BYTES) || 500 * 1024 * 1024; // 500MB default
+
+// Job runner stores via:
+const stored = await storage.putFile({
+ companyId,
+ namespace: "generated", // bypasses upload limit — this is not from multer
+ originalFilename: outputFilename,
+ contentType,
+ body: outputBuffer, // renderer output, no multer involved
+});
+```
+
+**Key insight:** The upload route (`assets.ts`) enforces limits via multer `limits: { fileSize: MAX_ATTACHMENT_BYTES }`. Job runners write directly to `storage.putFile()` — multer is never involved. The `MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES` constant exists for the job runner to validate before calling `putFile`, but `putFile` itself has no byte limit.
+
+### Pattern 6: source_task_id on assets (INFRA-04)
+
+**What:** Nullable column added to `assets` table.
+**When to use:** Every asset created by a job runner must pass `sourceTaskId`.
+
+```typescript
+// packages/db/src/schema/assets.ts — add column:
+sourceTaskId: text("source_task_id"), // nullable, no FK — task IDs are string identifiers
+
+// assetService.create() in server/src/services/assets.ts accepts it through
+// the existing spread pattern: db.insert(assets).values({ ...data, companyId })
+// since the column is nullable, no callers break.
+```
+
+### Pattern 7: content-job-store.ts (service layer)
+
+**What:** CRUD service for content_jobs table.
+**When to use:** Create and update jobs from routes + runner.
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/services/content-job-store.ts
+// Pattern source: server/src/services/assets.ts, heartbeat.ts
+export function contentJobStore(db: Db) {
+ return {
+ create: (companyId: string, data: { jobType: string; input: Record; sourceTaskId: string | null }) =>
+ db.insert(contentJobs).values({ companyId, ...data }).returning().then((r) => r[0]),
+
+ getById: (id: string) =>
+ db.select().from(contentJobs).where(eq(contentJobs.id, id)).then((r) => r[0] ?? null),
+
+ listByCompany: (companyId: string) =>
+ db.select().from(contentJobs)
+ .where(eq(contentJobs.companyId, companyId))
+ .orderBy(desc(contentJobs.createdAt)),
+
+ transition: (id: string, patch: Partial) =>
+ db.update(contentJobs).set({ ...patch, updatedAt: new Date() }).where(eq(contentJobs.id, id)),
+ };
+}
+```
+
+### Anti-Patterns to Avoid
+
+- **Awaiting render in HTTP handler:** Never `await renderer.run()` in the route handler. Always `void dispatch(job)` and return 202.
+- **Using multer for generated asset storage:** Job runners call `storage.putFile()` directly; multer is only for user uploads.
+- **Hardcoding status strings:** Always use the typed `CONTENT_JOB_STATUSES` constant from shared, not raw strings.
+- **Blocking SSE on DB polling:** SSE endpoint subscribes to EventEmitter via `subscribeCompanyLiveEvents`, not a polling loop.
+- **Missing `source_task_id` in job creation:** Every job submission should pass `sourceTaskId` from the incoming request (even if null for now); the column prevents future orphan accumulation.
+
+---
+
+## Don't Hand-Roll
+
+| Problem | Don't Build | Use Instead | Why |
+|---------|-------------|-------------|-----|
+| In-process pub/sub for SSE | Custom EventEmitter wrapper | `publishLiveEvent` + `subscribeCompanyLiveEvents` from `live-events.ts` | Already handles multi-company scoping, id sequencing |
+| Storage path generation | Custom UUID + date path builder | `StorageService.putFile()` via `service.ts` | Already handles namespace normalization, sha256, objectKey construction |
+| Migration execution | Custom SQL runner | `pnpm db:generate` then `pnpm db:migrate` | Existing drizzle-kit + custom migration runner in `client.ts` |
+| HTTP route mounting | Ad-hoc app.use() | Follow `app.ts` pattern: create router fn, import in app.ts | Consistent middleware application (auth, actor, etc.) |
+| Asset DB record | Custom insert | `assetService(db).create()` | Already handles the full asset shape |
+
+---
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+### Pitfall 1: Forgetting the "generated" namespace bypass logic lives in the runner, not the route
+
+**What goes wrong:** Developer adds byte-limit check in the new content-job route handler (treating it like the assets upload route), rejecting large files before they're even rendered.
+**Why it happens:** The upload route pattern uses multer limits; the developer copies that pattern.
+**How to avoid:** The content-jobs route only creates the job record (tiny JSON). The runner calls `storage.putFile()` directly — no multer anywhere. The size check (`MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES`) belongs in the job runner, after rendering, before writing.
+**Warning signs:** Any import of `multer` in `content-jobs.ts` or `content-job-runner.ts`.
+
+### Pitfall 2: SSE connection leaking if client disconnects mid-job
+
+**What goes wrong:** Client disconnects; the `unsubscribe` callback is never called; the EventEmitter listener accumulates. With many requests this can trigger Node's MaxListeners warning.
+**Why it happens:** SSE streams need explicit `req.on("close")` cleanup.
+**How to avoid:** Always register `req.on("close", () => { unsubscribe(); })` in every SSE handler. See `live-events-ws.ts` `cleanupByClient` pattern.
+**Warning signs:** MaxListeners exceeded warning in server logs.
+
+### Pitfall 3: Publishing live events before the DB row is committed
+
+**What goes wrong:** Browser receives `content_job.done` event, queries `/content-jobs/:id`, gets stale data (or 404 if the row hasn't flushed).
+**Why it happens:** `publishLiveEvent` is synchronous; the DB write is async.
+**How to avoid:** Always `await db.update(...)` before calling `publishLiveEvent(...)` in the job runner.
+**Warning signs:** Frontend shows "done" but API returns "running".
+
+### Pitfall 4: Migration numbering collision
+
+**What goes wrong:** Two migrations are created with the same prefix (e.g., `0056_`) and drizzle-kit fails to apply them in order.
+**Why it happens:** Parallel development or rebasing creates numbering conflicts.
+**How to avoid:** Check `ls packages/db/src/migrations/` before running `pnpm db:generate`. The last file is currently `0055_create_push_subscriptions.sql`. New migrations start at `0056_`.
+**Warning signs:** `pnpm db:generate` creates a file with a duplicate number.
+
+### Pitfall 5: Forgetting to export from schema/index.ts and services/index.ts
+
+**What goes wrong:** TypeScript compiles but runtime throws "cannot find module" or imports return undefined.
+**Why it happens:** The project uses explicit barrel exports; tree-shaking won't auto-discover.
+**How to avoid:** After adding `content_jobs.ts` schema and `content-job-store.ts` service, immediately add exports to `packages/db/src/schema/index.ts` and `server/src/services/index.ts`.
+
+### Pitfall 6: Adding content_job.* event types in the wrong place
+
+**What goes wrong:** `publishLiveEvent({ type: "content_job.running" })` throws a TypeScript error because the type is not in `LIVE_EVENT_TYPES`.
+**Why it happens:** `LiveEventType` is derived from `LIVE_EVENT_TYPES as const` in `packages/shared/src/constants.ts`.
+**How to avoid:** Add the four new types (`content_job.queued`, `content_job.running`, `content_job.done`, `content_job.failed`) to the `LIVE_EVENT_TYPES` array in `constants.ts` before writing the runner.
+
+---
+
+## Code Examples
+
+### Submitting a Job and Returning 202
+
+```typescript
+// Source: voice.ts (sync return), assets.ts (storage pattern) — combined
+router.post("/companies/:companyId/content-jobs", async (req, res) => {
+ const companyId = req.params.companyId;
+ assertCompanyAccess(req, companyId);
+
+ const { jobType, input, sourceTaskId } = req.body as {
+ jobType: string;
+ input?: Record;
+ sourceTaskId?: string;
+ };
+
+ const store = contentJobStore(db);
+ const job = await store.create(companyId, {
+ jobType,
+ input: input ?? {},
+ sourceTaskId: sourceTaskId ?? null,
+ });
+
+ void contentJobRunner.dispatch(db, storage, job); // fire and forget
+
+ res.status(202).json({
+ jobId: job.id,
+ status: job.status,
+ createdAt: job.createdAt,
+ });
+});
+```
+
+### Publishing Progress from the Runner
+
+```typescript
+// Source: live-events.ts publishLiveEvent pattern
+async function runJob(db: Db, storage: StorageService, job: ContentJob) {
+ const store = contentJobStore(db);
+
+ // Transition to running
+ await store.transition(job.id, { status: "running", startedAt: new Date() });
+ publishLiveEvent({
+ companyId: job.companyId,
+ type: "content_job.running",
+ payload: { jobId: job.id },
+ });
+
+ try {
+ const result = await renderContent(job.jobType, job.input);
+
+ // Store asset
+ const stored = await storage.putFile({
+ companyId: job.companyId,
+ namespace: "generated",
+ originalFilename: result.filename,
+ contentType: result.contentType,
+ body: result.buffer,
+ });
+ const asset = await assetService(db).create(job.companyId, {
+ ...stored,
+ sourceTaskId: job.sourceTaskId,
+ createdByAgentId: null,
+ createdByUserId: null,
+ });
+
+ // Transition to done
+ await store.transition(job.id, { status: "done", resultAssetId: asset.id, finishedAt: new Date() });
+ publishLiveEvent({
+ companyId: job.companyId,
+ type: "content_job.done",
+ payload: { jobId: job.id, assetId: asset.id },
+ });
+ } catch (err) {
+ const errorMessage = err instanceof Error ? err.message : "Unknown error";
+ await store.transition(job.id, { status: "failed", errorMessage, finishedAt: new Date() });
+ publishLiveEvent({
+ companyId: job.companyId,
+ type: "content_job.failed",
+ payload: { jobId: job.id, errorMessage },
+ });
+ }
+}
+```
+
+### Migration for content_jobs table
+
+```sql
+-- packages/db/src/migrations/0056_create_content_jobs.sql
+-- (generated by drizzle-kit; shown for reference)
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "content_jobs" (
+ "id" uuid PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT gen_random_uuid() NOT NULL,
+ "company_id" uuid NOT NULL REFERENCES "companies"("id"),
+ "job_type" text NOT NULL,
+ "status" text NOT NULL DEFAULT 'queued',
+ "input" jsonb NOT NULL DEFAULT '{}',
+ "result_asset_id" uuid,
+ "error_message" text,
+ "source_task_id" text,
+ "started_at" timestamp with time zone,
+ "finished_at" timestamp with time zone,
+ "created_at" timestamp with time zone DEFAULT now() NOT NULL,

+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS "content_jobs_company_status_idx" ON "content_jobs" ("company_id", "status");
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS "content_jobs_company_created_idx" ON "content_jobs" ("company_id", "created_at");
+```
+
+### Migration for source_task_id on assets
+
+```sql

+
+## State of the Art
+
+| Old Approach | Current Approach | When Changed | Impact |
+|--------------|------------------|--------------|--------|
+| Polling for job status | SSE push | Existing pattern in codebase | No polling loop needed on client |
+| Blocking HTTP for render | HTTP 202 + async | Decision from STATE.md | Render time decoupled from response time |
+| Flat asset storage | Namespaced storage (`generated/`, `assets/general`) | Existing `service.ts` pattern | No path collision between user uploads and generated output |
+
+**Already established in project:**
+- All DB schemas use Drizzle ORM with explicit migrations (not `drizzle.push`)
+- Migration files are numbered sequentially starting at `0000_`; next is `0056_`
+- Services follow a simple factory function pattern: `export function xService(db: Db) { return { ... } }`
+- Routes follow `export function xRoutes(db, deps...) { const router = Router(); ... return router; }` pattern
+- All routes are mounted in `server/src/app.ts`

+
+## Project Constraints (from CLAUDE.md)
+
+CLAUDE.md does not exist at the project root. The constraints below are derived from `STATE.md` key decisions which carry the same authority:
+
+1. **Async job pattern is mandatory** — all render requests return 202 + job ID immediately; never block HTTP on render
+2. **`content_jobs` table must exist before any renderer is built** — this phase is the hard dependency for all others (phases 41–45)
+3. **`sourceTaskId` required on every generated asset from day one** — prevents SSD orphan accumulation
+4. **`MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES` constant bypasses the 10MB upload limit for `generated/` namespace** — separate from upload route
+5. **Async pattern** — `renderPipelineService` stub must exist by end of phase (even as no-op) so phase 41 can extend it
+
+---
+
+## Sources
+
+### Primary (HIGH confidence)
+
+- Codebase: `server/src/services/live-events.ts` — EventEmitter pub/sub pattern for SSE fan-out
+- Codebase: `server/src/routes/voice.ts` — SSE headers pattern (`text/event-stream`, `flushHeaders`, `res.write`)
+- Codebase: `packages/db/src/schema/plugin_jobs.ts` — job lifecycle table pattern (status, timestamps, logs)
+- Codebase: `packages/db/src/schema/assets.ts` — asset table shape for INFRA-04 extension
+- Codebase: `server/src/storage/service.ts` — `putFile` has no byte limit; limit is in multer (upload route only)
+- Codebase: `packages/shared/src/constants.ts` — `LIVE_EVENT_TYPES` pattern to extend for job events
+- Codebase: `server/src/attachment-types.ts` — `MAX_ATTACHMENT_BYTES` = 10MB; `MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES` to be added here
+- Codebase: `packages/db/src/migrations/` — last migration is `0055_`; next is `0056_`
+- Project STATE.md — locked architecture decisions
+
+### Secondary (MEDIUM confidence)
+
+- Pattern inference from `heartbeat_runs` / `plugin_job_runs` tables (same repo) for `content_jobs` shape
+
+### Tertiary (LOW confidence)
+
+None — all findings are from direct codebase inspection.

+|---|-------|--------|----------|
+| 1 | content_jobs table exists in DB with queued/running/done/failed lifecycle columns | VERIFIED | packages/db/src/schema/content_jobs.ts has all lifecycle columns; migration 0046_tense_randall.sql applies CREATE TABLE |
+| 2 | assets table has a source_task_id column for conversation linkage | VERIFIED | packages/db/src/schema/assets.ts line 18: sourceTaskId: text("source_task_id"); same migration adds column |
+| 3 | LIVE_EVENT_TYPES includes content_job.queued, content_job.running, content_job.done, content_job.failed | VERIFIED | packages/shared/src/constants.ts lines 334-337 confirm all four entries |
+| 4 | MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES constant exists and defaults to 500MB | VERIFIED | server/src/attachment-types.ts line 76-77: exports constant, defaults to 500 * 1024 * 1024 |
+| 5 | contentJobStore service can create, get, list, and transition jobs | VERIFIED | server/src/services/content-job-store.ts exports all four methods backed by real Drizzle queries |
+| 6 | contentJobRunner dispatches a job asynchronously without blocking, transitions through lifecycle, stores asset, publishes live events | VERIFIED | void runJob() pattern confirmed; transitions running→done/failed; putFile with namespace "generated"; assetService.create with sourceTaskId; publishLiveEvent called |
+| 7 | POST /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs returns 202 with jobId and status within 200ms | VERIFIED | Route handler returns res.status(202).json({ jobId, status, createdAt }); dispatch is fire-and-forget |
+| 8 | GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId returns the job record with current status | VERIFIED | Route calls contentJobStore(db).getById, returns job or 404 |
+| 9 | GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs lists all jobs for a company ordered by createdAt desc | VERIFIED | Route calls listByCompany, Drizzle query uses orderBy(desc(contentJobs.createdAt)) |
+| 10 | GET /api/companies/:companyId/content-jobs/:jobId/events streams SSE events until terminal state then closes | FAILED | Initial-status fast-path works for already-terminal jobs. For running jobs, SSE terminal detection checks event.payload.status but runner publishes { jobId, assetId } / { jobId, errorMessage } with no status field — stream will not auto-close on completion |

+
+### Requirements Coverage
+
+| Requirement | Source Plan | Description | Status | Evidence |
+|-------------|------------|-------------|--------|----------|
+| INFRA-01 | 40-01, 40-02 | System processes content generation jobs asynchronously with queued → running → done/failed lifecycle | SATISFIED | contentJobRunner.dispatch fires void runJob; transitions queued→running→done/failed; POST returns 202; tests verify 202/queued |
+| INFRA-02 | 40-02 | System pushes job progress updates via SSE to connected clients | PARTIAL | SSE endpoint exists and streams initial status + live events. However, SSE does not auto-close for live jobs because runner payloads lack status field — stream hangs open until client disconnect |
+| INFRA-03 | 40-01, 40-02 | Generated content stored in namespaced storage without size restrictions blocking video/images | SATISFIED | storage.putFile called with namespace: "generated"; MAX_GENERATED_ASSET_BYTES = 500MB; no blocking — async dispatch |
+| INFRA-04 | 40-01, 40-02 | All generated content tracked in database with source conversation linkage | SATISFIED | assets.sourceTaskId column added; runner passes sourceTaskId: job.sourceTaskId to assetService.create; test verifies sourceTaskId persistence via POST then GET |
+
+### Anti-Patterns Found
+
+| File | Line | Pattern | Severity | Impact |
+|------|------|---------|----------|--------|
+| server/src/services/content-job-runner.ts | 11-21 | renderContent stub returning hardcoded buffer | Info | Intentional — documented in SUMMARY as placeholder for phases 41-45 |
+| server/src/routes/content-jobs.ts | 108 | event.payload.status terminal check against payloads that never include status | Blocker | SSE stream for live jobs never auto-closes on completion — client sees no completion signal until disconnect |
+
+### Human Verification Required
+
+None required — all behavioral checks were resolved programmatically.
+
+## Gaps Summary
+
+One gap blocks complete goal achievement:
+
+**SSE stream does not auto-close when a running job reaches terminal state.** The `contentJobRunner` publishes `content_job.done` with `{ jobId, assetId }` and `content_job.failed` with `{ jobId, errorMessage }`. Neither payload contains a `status` field. The SSE route's terminal detection at line 108 reads `event.payload.status` and checks for `"done"` or `"failed"` — this will always be `undefined`, so `unsubscribe()` and `res.end()` are never called by the subscriber. The stream remains open indefinitely until the client disconnects.
+
+The initial-status fast-path works correctly: if a job is already terminal when the SSE connection opens, the stream closes immediately after sending the first event. Only the live-event-driven close path is broken.
+
+**Fix options (either resolves the gap):**
+
+1. In `content-job-runner.ts`, add `status: "done"` to the `content_job.done` payload and `status: "failed"` to the `content_job.failed` payload.
+2. In `content-jobs.ts` (SSE route), replace the payload status check with `event.type === "content_job.done" || event.type === "content_job.failed"`.
+
+The `renderContent` stub is not a gap — it is intentionally deferred to phases 41-45 and documented as such.

+# Format Conversion Ecosystem
+
+**Project:** Nexus v1.7 — supplemental research for two-tier format conversion system
+**Researched:** 2026-04-04
+**Scope:** Direct conversion tools, format registry pattern, AI-bridged conversion boundary, UI patterns, security and performance pitfalls
+**Confidence:** HIGH for tool choices, MEDIUM for version numbers (npm registry cross-checked)
+
+---
+
+## Context: What Is Already Available
+
+These are confirmed installed and must not be re-added:
+
+| Package | Location | Version | Relevant To Conversion |
+|---------|----------|---------|----------------------|
+| `sharp ^0.34.5` | `server/` | 0.34.5 | Raster image conversion (resize, format, SVG→PNG) |
+| `ffmpeg-static ^5.3.0` | `server/` | 5.3.0 | Audio/video conversion binary |
+| `mermaid ^11.12.0` | `ui/` | 11.12.0 | Client-side Mermaid rendering |
+| `playwright-chromium ^1.50.0` | `server/` | 1.50.0 | HTML→PDF already decided in STACK.md |
+
+---
+
+## Tier 1: Direct Conversion Tools
+
+### Image Formats
+
+**Primary: `sharp ^0.34.5` (already installed)**
+
+Sharp handles the majority of image format pairs without any additional dependency:
+
+| Source | Target | Method |
+|--------|--------|--------|
+| JPEG/PNG/WebP/AVIF/TIFF/GIF | Any raster | `sharp(input).toFormat('webp').toBuffer()` |
+| SVG | PNG/JPEG/WebP | `sharp(svgBuffer).png().toBuffer()` — libvips handles SVG via librsvg |
+| PNG/JPEG | WebP/AVIF | `sharp(input).webp({ quality: 80 }).toBuffer()` |
+
+**Important SVG caveat:** sharp's SVG→PNG conversion uses librsvg. It works well for most SVGs but does NOT support all CSS features. For agent-generated SVGs with embedded fonts (produced by `satori`), use `@resvg/resvg-js` as specified in STACK.md. For user-uploaded SVGs without special fonts, `sharp` is sufficient.
+
+**No ImageMagick needed.** ImageMagick via CLI or WASM adds complexity:
+- `imagemagick` npm is an unmaintained CLI wrapper (last release 2020)
+- WASM ImageMagick (`@imagemagick/magick-wasm`) works but runs at ~0.3× native speed
+- `sharp` via libvips is 4–5× faster than ImageMagick for every supported format pair
+- For the format pairs Nexus needs (JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, SVG→raster), sharp covers everything
+
+**No Inkscape needed** for Nexus's scope (vector conversion beyond SVG→PNG is out of scope for v1.7).
+
+---
+
+### Audio / Video Formats
+
+**Wrapper: `fluent-ffmpeg ^2.1.3`**
+
+**Important maintenance note:** The `fluent-ffmpeg` repository was archived on May 22, 2025. The package is no longer receiving new features. However:
+- It remains published on npm and functional with Node.js >=18
+- The `ffmpeg-static ^5.3.0` binary it wraps is still actively maintained
+- `@types/fluent-ffmpeg ^2.1.28` provides TypeScript types (last updated October 2025)
+- For Nexus's use case (spawn ffmpeg with known args), the archived state is low risk
+- Alternative: write a thin `child_process.spawn` wrapper directly — this is ~30 lines and removes the archived dependency entirely
+
+**Recommendation for Nexus:** Implement a minimal `ffmpegConvert(inputPath, outputPath, extraArgs)` wrapper using `child_process.spawn` instead of taking on the archived `fluent-ffmpeg`. The full fluent API is unnecessary — format conversion is a single `ffmpeg -i input.mp4 output.webm` call.
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/services/converters/ffmpeg-converter.ts
+import { spawn } from "child_process";
+import ffmpegPath from "ffmpeg-static";
+
+export function ffmpegConvert(
+ inputPath: string,
+ outputPath: string,
+ extraArgs: string[] = []
+): Promise {
+ return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
+ const proc = spawn(ffmpegPath!, [
+ "-i", inputPath,
+ ...extraArgs,
+ "-y", // overwrite output
+ outputPath,
+ ]);
+ proc.on("close", (code) =>
+ code === 0 ? resolve() : reject(new Error(`ffmpeg exited ${code}`))
+ );
+ proc.stderr.on("data", () => {}); // consume stderr to prevent backpressure
+ });
+}
+```
+
+**Format coverage via ffmpeg-static:**
+
+| Source | Target | Extra args |
+|--------|--------|-----------|
+| MP4/MKV/AVI/MOV | WebM | `["-c:v", "libvpx-vp9", "-c:a", "libopus"]` |
+| MP4/WebM | MP3/AAC | `["-vn", "-c:a", "libmp3lame"]` (audio extract) |
+| MP3/WAV/FLAC/OGG | MP3 | `["-c:a", "libmp3lame", "-b:a", "192k"]` |
+| MP3/WAV/OGG | WAV | `["-c:a", "pcm_s16le"]` |
+| Image sequence | MP4 | `["-r", "30", "-c:v", "libx264"]` |
+| MP4 | GIF | `["-vf", "fps=10,scale=640:-1:flags=lanczos"]` |
+| Any video | Audio-only MP3 | `["-vn"]` |
+
+---
+
+### Documents
+
+#### DOCX to HTML: `mammoth ^1.12.0`
+
+Mammoth converts `.docx` → HTML with semantic preservation. It does NOT create DOCX.
+
+```bash
+pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server add mammoth
+```
+
+```typescript
+import mammoth from "mammoth";
+
+const { value: html } = await mammoth.convertToHtml({ path: docxPath });
+// html is a clean HTML string; images are embedded as base64 data URIs by default
+```
+
+**Why mammoth over pandoc for DOCX→HTML:** Mammoth preserves heading hierarchy, tables, lists, and images correctly. Its output is cleaner HTML than pandoc's for Word documents. Single-purpose library, no system binary required.
+
+**TypeScript types:** Included in the package since v1.7 (`@types/mammoth` not needed).
+
+**Confidence: HIGH** — official npm, v1.12.0, actively maintained (last publish 20 days ago).
+
+---
+
+#### Markdown → DOCX / PDF / HTML: Pandoc (system binary + thin wrapper)
+
+**Integration approach:** Pandoc is a Haskell binary — there is no pure-Node.js implementation. Existing Node.js wrappers are thin `child_process` shims:
+
+- `node-pandoc ^0.2.7` — 13K weekly downloads, most popular, but last updated 2021
+- `pandoc-ts` — TypeScript wrapper, smaller community
+- **Recommended: write a 20-line `child_process.spawn` wrapper** — same as ffmpeg approach
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/services/converters/pandoc-converter.ts
+import { spawn } from "child_process";
+
+export function pandocConvert(
+ inputPath: string,
+ outputPath: string,
+ from: string,
+ to: string
+): Promise {
+ return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
+ const proc = spawn("pandoc", [
+ inputPath,
+ "-f", from,
+ "-t", to,
+ "-o", outputPath,
+ ]);
+ proc.on("close", (code) =>
+ code === 0 ? resolve() : reject(new Error(`pandoc exited ${code}`))
+ );
+ });
+}
+```
+
+**Supported format pairs via pandoc:**
+
+| Source | Target |
+|--------|--------|
+| Markdown | DOCX, HTML, RST, LaTeX, EPUB |
+| RST | Markdown, HTML, DOCX |
+| HTML | Markdown, DOCX |
+| LaTeX | HTML, Markdown |
+| DOCX | Markdown (lossier than mammoth for HTML) |
+
+**System dependency:** pandoc must be installed on the Mac Mini. Install via `brew install pandoc`. Check at server startup with `which pandoc`; if absent, degrade gracefully.
+
+**Confidence: HIGH** — pandoc is the de-facto standard; brew install is 1 command; child_process wrapper is trivial.
+
+---
+
+#### DOCX / ODT / PPTX → PDF: LibreOffice headless
+
+**Package: `libreoffice-convert ^1.8.1`**
+
+```bash
+pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server add libreoffice-convert
+# System dependency: brew install --cask libreoffice
+```
+
+```typescript
+import { convertAsync } from "libreoffice-convert";
+import fs from "fs/promises";
+
+const inputBuffer = await fs.readFile(docxPath);
+const pdfBuffer = await convertAsync(inputBuffer, ".pdf", undefined);
+```
+
+**Format pairs:**
+
+| Source | Target |
+|--------|--------|
+| DOCX / DOC | PDF, ODT, HTML |
+| PPTX / PPT | PDF, ODP |
+| XLSX / XLS | PDF, ODS, CSV |
+| ODT / ODP / ODS | PDF, DOCX, PPTX |
+
+**Performance warning:** LibreOffice launches a JVM-equivalent runtime on first call. Cold start: ~3-5 seconds. Warm subsequent calls: ~500ms. Serialize LibreOffice jobs (no concurrent renders) — run maximum one at a time.
+
+**System dependency:** LibreOffice must be installed at `/Applications/LibreOffice.app` on macOS. Check at server startup; degrade gracefully if absent.
+
+**Confidence: MEDIUM** — package v1.8.1 confirmed. macOS arm64 LibreOffice runs natively on M4 (confirmed via LibreOffice download page). Single source for LibreOffice npm package maintenance status.
+
+---
+
+#### HTML → PDF: playwright-chromium (already decided in STACK.md)
+
+Use `playwright-chromium ^1.50.0` for HTML→PDF. Already researched; do not re-add.
+
+---
+
+### Data Formats
+
+#### Spreadsheets: `xlsx` (SheetJS Community Edition)
+
+**Package: `xlsx ^0.20.x`** (SheetJS Community Edition)
+
+```bash
+pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server add xlsx
+```
+
+**Format coverage:**
+
+| Source | Target | Method |
+|--------|--------|--------|
+| XLSX / XLS / ODS | CSV | `XLSX.utils.sheet_to_csv(ws)` |
+| XLSX / XLS / ODS | JSON | `XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(ws)` |
+| CSV / JSON | XLSX | `XLSX.utils.json_to_sheet(data)` → `XLSX.writeFile(wb, path)` |
+
+SheetJS has ~7.8M weekly downloads and handles all Excel formats including legacy `.xls`. It is the default choice with no alternatives needed for basic spreadsheet conversion.
+
+**Licensing note:** SheetJS Community Edition is free (Apache 2.0 for historical versions; check current license at install time). SheetJS Pro adds streaming for very large files — not needed at single-user scale.
+
+**Confidence: MEDIUM-HIGH** — widely used, 7.8M weekly downloads confirmed. Version 0.20.x confirmed. License nuance warrants a check at install time.
+
+---
+
+#### CSV Parsing: `csv-parse ^5.6.0` (part of the `csv` ecosystem)
+
+```bash
+pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server add csv-parse
+```
+
+The `csv-parse ^6.2.1` package (latest as of April 2026) implements `stream.Transform` and supports both streaming and synchronous/callback modes. It includes TypeScript types.
+
+**When to use:** Parsing user-uploaded CSV files before transformation (CSV→JSON, CSV→XLSX). For generating CSV output from JSON/objects, use SheetJS or `csv-stringify` (same ecosystem as `csv-parse`).
+
+**Confidence: HIGH** — v6.2.1 confirmed from npm search. Maintained (last publish 4 days ago).
+
+---
+
+#### JSON ↔ CSV: Use `csv-parse` + `csv-stringify` (not `json2csv`)
+
+The `json2csv` package is in maintenance mode at v6.0.0-alpha (3 years old). The `json-2-csv` package (v5.5.10, different package) is active but adds a dependency for something `csv-stringify` already handles.
+
+**Recommendation:** Use `csv-stringify ^6.x` (same ecosystem as `csv-parse`, same maintainer) for JSON→CSV. This avoids pulling in a separate package.
+
+```bash
+pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server add csv-stringify
+```
+
+---
+
+### Code Formats
+
+#### Code Formatting (JS/TS/CSS/HTML): `prettier ^3.x`
+
+```bash
+pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server add --save-dev prettier
+# For programmatic use in server:
+pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server add prettier
+```
+
+Prettier exposes a programmatic API:
+
+```typescript
+import { format } from "prettier";
+
+const formatted = await format(sourceCode, {
+ parser: "typescript", // or "babel", "css", "html", "markdown", etc.
+ semi: true,
+ singleQuote: true,
+});
+```
+
+**Use case:** Agent generates code → prettier formats it before saving. Also enables code→code conversions like "reformat this JSON" or "convert CommonJS to ESM style."
+
+**Confidence: HIGH** — Prettier API is well-documented at prettier.io/docs/api.
+
+---
+
+#### TypeScript Type Generation (JSON Schema → TypeScript): `json-schema-to-typescript ^15.x`
+
+For the AI-bridged case where an agent converts a JSON schema into TypeScript type definitions, this library handles it deterministically:
+
+```bash
+pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server add json-schema-to-typescript
+```
+
+```typescript
+import { compile } from "json-schema-to-typescript";
+const ts = await compile(jsonSchema, "MyType");
+```
+
+**Confidence: MEDIUM** — widely used library; version verified as 15.x on npm (as of late 2025). Use for JSON Schema→TypeScript specifically; TypeScript→TypeScript reformatting uses the compiler API or prettier.

+
+**AI-bridged**: Format pairs without a deterministic tool path. See Tier 2 below.
+
+---
+
+## Tier 2: Format Registry Pattern
+
+### Dispatch Table Design
+
+The registry is a map of `"source/target"` → handler function. This is simpler than a class hierarchy and matches the existing Nexus factory function pattern.
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/services/converters/registry.ts
+
+export type ConversionHandler = (
+ inputPath: string,
+ outputPath: string,
+ opts?: Record
+) => Promise;
+
+export type ConversionCapability = "direct" | "ai-bridged" | "unavailable";
+
+export interface ConversionRoute {
+ capability: ConversionCapability;
+ handler?: ConversionHandler; // present when capability = "direct"
+ aiHint?: string; // present when capability = "ai-bridged"
+ requiresSystemDep?: string; // e.g. "pandoc", "libreoffice"
+}
+
+// Key format: "source.ext/target.ext" — always lowercase, no leading dot
+const registry = new Map();
+
+export function registerConverter(
+ sourceExt: string,
+ targetExt: string,
+ route: ConversionRoute
+): void {
+ registry.set(`${sourceExt}/${targetExt}`, route);
+}
+
+export function getConverter(sourceExt: string, targetExt: string): ConversionRoute {
+ return registry.get(`${sourceExt}/${targetExt}`) ?? { capability: "unavailable" };
+}
+
+export function listSupportedTargets(sourceExt: string): string[] {
+ const results: string[] = [];
+ for (const [key, route] of registry.entries()) {
+ if (key.startsWith(`${sourceExt}/`) && route.capability !== "unavailable") {
+ results.push(key.split("/")[1]);
+ }
+ }
+ return results;
+}
+```
+
+**Registration (in server startup):**
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/services/converters/index.ts
+import { registerConverter } from "./registry";
+import { sharpConvert } from "./sharp-converter";
+import { ffmpegConvert } from "./ffmpeg-converter";
+import { pandocConvert } from "./pandoc-converter";
+
+// Image
+registerConverter("png", "webp", { capability: "direct", handler: (i, o) => sharpConvert(i, o, "webp") });
+registerConverter("jpg", "webp", { capability: "direct", handler: (i, o) => sharpConvert(i, o, "webp") });
+registerConverter("svg", "png", { capability: "direct", handler: (i, o) => sharpConvert(i, o, "png") });
+
+// Documents
+registerConverter("docx", "html", { capability: "direct", handler: mammothConvert, requiresSystemDep: undefined });
+registerConverter("docx", "pdf", { capability: "direct", handler: libreofficeConvert, requiresSystemDep: "libreoffice" });
+registerConverter("md", "docx", { capability: "direct", handler: (i, o) => pandocConvert(i, o, "markdown", "docx"), requiresSystemDep: "pandoc" });
+
+// Data
+registerConverter("xlsx", "csv", { capability: "direct", handler: sheetjsConvert });
+registerConverter("csv", "xlsx", { capability: "direct", handler: sheetjsConvert });
+registerConverter("csv", "pdf", { capability: "ai-bridged", aiHint: "format as a formatted table report PDF" });
+registerConverter("json", "pdf", { capability: "ai-bridged", aiHint: "render as a structured document report" });
+
+// Audio/Video
+registerConverter("mp4", "webm", { capability: "direct", handler: (i, o) => ffmpegConvert(i, o, ["-c:v", "libvpx-vp9"]) });
+registerConverter("mp3", "wav", { capability: "direct", handler: (i, o) => ffmpegConvert(i, o, ["-c:a", "pcm_s16le"]) });
+```
+
+**Extensibility:** Adding a new format pair is one `registerConverter()` call. The route handler and the registry are decoupled. System dependency checks happen at `registerConverter()` time, not at request time — unavailable converters are registered as `capability: "unavailable"` when their system dep is absent.
+
+---
+
+## Tier 2: AI-Bridged Conversion
+
+### When to Use AI (vs Direct Tool)
+
+| Criterion | Direct Tool | AI-Bridged |
+|-----------|-------------|------------|
+| Output is byte-for-byte deterministic | Yes | No |
+| Format pair has an established tool | Yes | No |
+| Conversion is purely structural (no semantic change) | Yes | — |
+| Conversion requires understanding content meaning | — | Yes |
+| Source format is machine-readable but lacks a direct path | — | Yes |
+| Example pairs | PNG→WebP, DOCX→PDF, MP4→WebM | CSV→PDF report, JSON→DOCX narrative, schema→TypeScript |
+
+**Decision rule:**
+
+> Use direct tool when: `getConverter(src, tgt).capability === "direct"`.
+> Use AI when: capability is `"ai-bridged"` AND the source is a text/data format that an LLM can read as context.
+> Return `"unavailable"` error when: capability is `"unavailable"` (binary formats with no path, e.g. PDF→XLSX).
+
+**AI-bridged is NOT a fallback for when a tool is missing.** If LibreOffice is not installed, DOCX→PDF is `"unavailable"`, not `"ai-bridged"`. AI-bridged is only for semantically complex conversions where no deterministic tool exists.
+
+---
+
+### AI-Bridged Prompt Structure
+
+The prompt must be deterministic in its output format requirements. Vague prompts produce vague output.
+
+```typescript
+// server/src/services/converters/ai-bridged-converter.ts
+
+export async function aiBridgedConvert(
+ sourceExt: string,
+ targetExt: string,
+ sourceContent: string, // text content of the source file
+ outputPath: string,
+ aiHint: string, // from registry route
+ agentAdapter: AgentAdapter // existing adapter interface
+): Promise {
+ const prompt = buildConversionPrompt(sourceExt, targetExt, sourceContent, aiHint);
+ const result = await agentAdapter.complete(prompt);
+ await writeConversionResult(result, targetExt, outputPath);
+}
+
+function buildConversionPrompt(
+ sourceExt: string,
+ targetExt: string,
+ sourceContent: string,
+ aiHint: string
+): string {
+ const outputSpec = OUTPUT_SPEC[targetExt] ?? "the target format";
+ return `Convert the following ${sourceExt.toUpperCase()} content to ${targetExt.toUpperCase()}.
+
+Instruction: ${aiHint}
+
+Requirements:
+- Output ONLY the converted content, no explanation, no preamble
+- Output format: ${outputSpec}
+- Preserve all data values exactly; do not summarize or truncate
+
+Source content:
+\`\`\`
+${sourceContent}
+\`\`\``;
+}
+
+const OUTPUT_SPEC: Record = {
+ html: "Valid HTML5. No , no / wrapper. Only the content fragment.",
+ md: "GitHub Flavored Markdown.",
+ ts: "Valid TypeScript. No imports unless required. Export all types.",
+ pdf: "HTML that will be rendered to PDF. Use inline
