# Description of Changes
Changes the strategy for autoformatting to reject PRs if they are not
formatted correctly instead of allowing them to merge and then spawning
a new PR to fix the formatting. The old strategy just caused more work
for us because we'd have to manually approve the followup PR and get it
merged, which required 2 reviewers so in practice it rarely got done and
just meant everyone's PRs ended up containing reformatting for unrelated
files, which makes code review unnecessarily difficult. If the PR's code
is not formatted correctly after this PR, a comment will be added
automatically to tell the author how to run the formatter script to fix
their code so it can go in.
This also enables autoformatting for the frontend code, using Prettier.
I've enabled it for pretty much everything in the frontend folder, other
than 3rd party files and files it doesn't make sense for. I also
excluded Markdown because it sounds likely to be more annoying to have
to autoformat the Markdown in the frontend folder but nowhere else. Open
to changing this though if people disagree.
> [!note]
>
> Advice to reviewers: The first commit contains all of the actual logic
I've introduced (CI changes, Prettier config, etc.)
> The second commit is just the reformatting of the entire frontend
folder.
> The first commit needs proper review, the second one just give it a
spot-check that it's doing what you'd expect.
## Description of Changes
Adds two new user preferences to the General settings panel, addressing
#5908.
**Default view on launch** - a segmented control (Tools / Reader /
Automate) that controls which left-column tab is active when the app
starts. Previously the app always opened on the Tools tab with no way to
change this. Users who spend most of their time reading PDFs had to
manually switch to the Reader tab on every launch.
**Default reader zoom** - a dropdown (Auto / Fit width / Fit page /
50%–200%) that sets the initial zoom level whenever a PDF is opened in
the reader. Previously the app always applied an automatic
fit-to-viewport calculation.
Both settings are non-breaking. The defaults (`Tools` and `Auto`)
reproduce the existing behaviour exactly, so existing users see no
difference until they change a preference.
### What changed
- `preferencesService.ts` - added `StartupView` and `ViewerZoomSetting`
types plus the two new fields to `UserPreferences` with safe defaults
- `ToolWorkflowContext.tsx` - one-time startup effect that navigates to
the preferred tab on first render (mirrors the existing
`defaultToolPanelMode` sync pattern)
- `ZoomAPIBridge.tsx` - respects the zoom preference before falling back
to auto-zoom logic when a document loads
- `GeneralSection.tsx` - two new controls added below "Default tool
picker mode"; the Select uses `comboboxProps={{ withinPortal: true }}`
so the dropdown renders above the settings modal
- `en-GB/translation.toml` - new keys for labels, descriptions, and
option values
Closes#5908

# Description of Changes
Improves PDF rendering in the viewer by adding digital signature field
support,
cleaning up overlay rendering, and migrating the contrast tool off
pdf-lib to PDFium WASM.
### Signature Field Overlay
- Added `SignatureFieldOverlay` component that renders digital signature
form fields
- Renders appearance streams when present; shows a fallback badge for
unsigned fields
- Uses PDFium WASM for bitmap extraction
### Overlay Rendering
- Integrated `SignatureFieldOverlay` and `ButtonAppearanceOverlay` into
`LocalEmbedPDF`
- Overlays are now clipped to page boundaries
- Clarified in `EmbedPdfViewer` that frontend overlays use PDFium WASM,
backend overlays use PDFBox
### Contrast Tool Migration
- Replaced pdf-lib with PDFium WASM in `useAdjustContrastOperation`
- PDF page creation and image embedding now go through PDFium APIs
directly
- Updated bitmap handling and memory management accordingly
### Cleanup
- Fixed import ordering in viewer components
- Removed stale comments in the contrast operation hook

# Description of Changes
Previously, `VITE_*` environment variables were scattered across the
codebase with hardcoded fallback values inline (e.g.
`import.meta.env.VITE_STRIPE_KEY || 'pk_live_...'`). This made it
unclear which variables
were required, what they were for, and caused real keys to be silently
used in builds where they hadn't been explicitly configured.
## What's changed
I've added `frontend/.env.example` and `frontend/.env.desktop.example`,
which declare every `VITE_*` variable the app uses, with comments
explaining each one and sensible defaults where applicable. These
are the source of truth for what's required.
I've added a setup script which runs before `npm run dev`, `build`,
`tauri-dev`, and all `tauri-build*` commands. It:
- Creates your local `.env` / `.env.desktop` from the example files on
first run, so you don't need to do anything manually
- Errors if you're missing keys that the example defines (e.g. after
pulling changes that added a new variable). These can either be
manually-set env vars, or in your `.env` file (env vars take precedence
over `.env` file vars when running)
- Warns if you have `VITE_*` variables set in your environment that
aren't listed in any example file
I've removed all `|| 'hardcoded-value'` defaults from source files
because they are not necessary in this system, as all variables must be
explicitly set (they can be set to `VITE_ENV_VAR=`, just as long as the
variable actually exists). I think this system will make it really
obvious exactly what you need to set and what's actually running in the
code.
I've added a test that checks that every `import.meta.env.VITE_*`
reference found in source is present in at least one example file, so
new variables can't be added without being documented.
## For contributors
New contributors shouldn't need to do anything - `npm run dev` will
create your `.env` automatically.
If you already have a `.env` file in the `frontend/` folder, you may
well need to update it to make the system happy. Here's an example
output from running `npm run dev` with an old `.env` file:
```
$ npm run dev
> [email protected] dev
> npm run prep && vite
> [email protected] prep
> tsx scripts/setup-env.ts && npm run generate-icons
setup-env: see frontend/README.md#environment-variables for documentation
setup-env: .env is missing keys from config/.env.example:
VITE_GOOGLE_DRIVE_CLIENT_ID
VITE_GOOGLE_DRIVE_API_KEY
VITE_GOOGLE_DRIVE_APP_ID
VITE_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY
VITE_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_HOST
Add them manually or delete your local file to re-copy from the example.
setup-env: the following VITE_ vars are set but not listed in any example file:
VITE_DEV_BYPASS_AUTH
Add them to config/.env.example or config/.env.desktop.example if they are required.
```
If you add a new `VITE_*` variable to the codebase, add it to the
appropriate `frontend/config/.env.example` file or the test will fail.

# Summary
- Adds desktop file tracking: local paths are preserved and save buttons
now work as expcted (doing Save/Save As as appropriate)
- Adds logic to track whether files are 'dirty' (they've been modified
by some tool, and not saved to disk yet).
- Improves file state UX (dirty vs saved) and close warnings
- Web behaviour should be unaffected by these changes
## Indicators
Files now have indicators in desktop mode to tell you their state.
### File up-to-date with disk

/>
# Limitations
- It's a bit weird that we still have files stored in indexeddb in the
app, which are still loadable. We might want to change this behaviour in
the future
- Viewer's Save doesn't persist to disk. I've left that out here because
it'd need a lot of testing to make sure the logic's right with making
sure you can leave the Viewer with applying the changes to the PDF
_without_ saving to disk
- There's no current way to do Save As on a file that has already been
persisted to disk - it's only ever Save. Similarly, there's no way to
duplicate a file.

# Description of Changes
This pull request introduces several improvements and new features
across the authentication and admin data APIs, with a particular focus
on multi-factor authentication (MFA) support and better handling of user
settings. The changes include integrating MFA status into account data
responses, masking sensitive user settings in admin views, and
refactoring code to use more robust user creation methods. Additionally,
there are minor code cleanups and consistency improvements.
### Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) Integration
* Added `mfaEnabled` and `mfaRequired` fields to the `AccountData`
response, populated using the new `MfaService`, to provide clients with
MFA status information for users.

### User Settings Handling and Security
* Admin settings API now returns user settings for each user, with the
`mfaSecret` field masked to protect sensitive information. This is
achieved by fetching settings via `findByIdWithSettings` and
copying/masking the relevant field before returning.

### Refactoring and Code Consistency
* Refactored user creation in `InitialSecuritySetup` to use the
`SaveUserRequest` builder and `saveUserCore` for better maintainability
and clarity, replacing direct calls to `saveUser`.

### API and DTO Changes
* Changed the login API to accept `UsernameAndPassMfa` instead of
`UsernameAndPass`, paving the way for MFA code support in authentication
requests.

* Updated import statements and controller dependencies to include new
DTOs and services related to MFA.

These updates improve security, prepare the system for MFA rollout, and
make admin and authentication APIs more robust and informative.

## Summary
- track endpoint disable reasons server-side and expose them through a
new `/api/v1/config/endpoints-availability` API that the frontend can
consume
- refresh the web UI tool management logic to cache endpoint details,
compute per-tool availability metadata, and show reason-specific
messaging (admin disabled vs missing dependency) when a tool cannot be
launched
- add the missing en-GB translations for the new unavailability labels
so the UI copy reflects the new distinction

# Description of Changes
Changes the desktop app to allow connections to self-hosted servers on
first startup. This was quite involved and hit loads of CORS issues all
through the stack, but I think it's working now. This also changes the
bundled backend to spawn on an OS-decided port rather than always
spawning on `8080`, which means that the user can have other things
running on port `8080` now and the app will still work fine. There were
quite a few places that needed to be updated to decouple the app from
explicitly using `8080` and I was originally going to split those
changes out into another PR (#4939), but I couldn't get it working
independently in the time I had, so the diff here is just going to be
complex and contian two distinct changes - sorry 🙁
# Description of Changes
TLDR:
- Introduced a user confirmation dialog for extracting ZIP files with
more than **20 files**.
- Created `useZipConfirmation` hook to handle confirmation dialog logic
and state.
- Implemented `ZipWarningModal` component to display the confirmation
dialog.
- Updated `zipFileService` to count files in ZIP and trigger
confirmation callback for large files.
- Integrated confirmation flow into `FileContext` and
`useToolResources`.
- Added translations for new ZIP warning dialog messages.
This pull request introduces a user confirmation dialog when attempting
to extract large ZIP files (**over 20 files**), improving safety and
user experience by preventing accidental extraction of very large
archives. The implementation includes a reusable confirmation modal, a
custom hook to handle dialog state and resolution, and updates to the
ZIP extraction logic to support this workflow.
**User Experience Improvements**
* Added a new localized warning dialog (`ZipWarningModal`) that prompts
users for confirmation when extracting ZIP files containing more than 20
files. This dialog displays the ZIP file name, file count, and offers
"Cancel" and "Extract" actions, with responsive layouts for desktop and
mobile
**ZIP Extraction Workflow Enhancements**
* Updated the ZIP extraction logic in `ZipFileService` to count the
number of files in a ZIP and invoke a confirmation callback if the file
count exceeds the threshold. Extraction proceeds only if the user
confirms; otherwise, the ZIP remains unextracted.
* Added a new hook (`useZipConfirmation`) to manage the confirmation
dialog’s state and provide a promise-based API for requesting user
confirmation.
**Integration with Application State**
* Integrated the confirmation workflow into `FileContext`, passing the
confirmation function into ZIP extraction calls and rendering the modal
dialog at the appropriate time.
* Updated relevant interfaces and method signatures to support the
optional confirmation callback for large ZIP extractions throughout the
codebase.

- New `get_opened_file` Tauri command to detect file arguments
- `fileOpenService` with Tauri fs plugin integration
- `useOpenedFile` hook for React integration
- Improved backend health logging during startup (reduced noise)
### 🧪 **Testing**
See
