ignacionelson 92bb807849 Show a client the public link to their own file
A client's portal lists two kinds of file side by side: what they
uploaded, and what somebody shared with them. Where a link exists on one
of their own, they can now copy it from the row — which is what makes the
hosted free plan a product rather than a place to put files, since a
customer there has no staff screen on which to make one.

The rule is narrow, and both halves are load-bearing: a link this client
created, on a file this client uploaded.

Not "a link on a file shared with them" — that link is the sharer's
decision about who may reach the file, and handing the recipient the URL
would quietly turn "you may download this" into "you may pass this on to
anyone".

And not "any link on their own file" either — a link staff minted on a
file a client uploaded exists for a reason the client may be no part of,
and on the shared instance it would sit beside the one link they were
promised. Ordering is by id, so an unfiltered lookup would hand them
whichever was minted first.

Both halves have a test that fails when only that half is removed. The
first draft did not: every case was carried by the ownership filter
alone, so the creator check was green for the wrong reason.

Links that no longer work are left out rather than shown greyed. The only
thing a client can do here is copy it, and a URL that answers "this link
has expired" is worse than no URL at all.

One query per listing, not one per row, and none at all for a client with
no files of their own.

ignacionelson 8de28059db Say when a folder choice publishes the file
Found reviewing the client file editor rather than building it.

File::isEffectivelyPublic() is "my own flag OR my folder's", and
Folder::uploadableBy() admits a client to a public folder on
upload_to_public_folders — a different key from upload_public. So a client
can make a file world-readable without touching the public switch, and
without holding the key that switch is behind.

That is what those two keys have always meant and what uploading into such
a folder has always done, so this does not refuse it. What was new is
where the choice is made. The upload page is entered from a folder the
client has already navigated to, where the list shows a Globe badge on a
public folder. The editor's picker is a flat list of names, and it is the
first place a destination is chosen with none of that context — so the
consequence was invisible exactly where it mattered most.

Public folders now carry the badge in the picker, and choosing one says in
words that anyone will be able to open the file without signing in. Two
tests: that the side door genuinely publishes and is labelled, and that a
private folder is not labelled — a warning on everything is a warning on
nothing.

The rest of the review found no defect. Ownership, the per-field keys, the
staff-scope trap and mass assignment were already covered; a client
deleting a file that staff later revised was checked directly and moves
the chain's recipients onto the successor without widening them, which is
what it is supposed to do. The write path was driven in a real browser —
rename, publish and delete through the actual form and dialog — because a
green suite over a write that 419s in every browser is a mistake this
repository has made before. Bytes gone, audit trail complete, and
file.made_public records the slug.

ignacionelson ea214fc27e Give the client portal a file editor
The authorization landed last commit; this is the way in. A client with
edit_files now gets an Edit action on the files they uploaded, opening a
form with every field their role actually grants, and a Delete beside it.

One page for every theme, not one per theme. portal/edit-file.tsx picks
its shell from the `theme` prop exactly as portal/upload.tsx does, because
a form with eight fields behind five separate permissions, rebuilt four
times, is four places for a field to go quietly missing. What *is*
per-theme is only the entry point: one <FileRowActions /> in each theme's
row actions group, the file twin of the FolderRowActions that was already
there.

Row actions gate on can_update/can_delete, sent per file by
MyFilesController and answered by FilePolicy — never on is_mine, which is
half the question. Holding the file is one half and the role's keys are
the other, and a theme that reads is_mine offers an Edit button that
403s. Written into docs/theming-files-checklist.md so the next theme does
not have to rediscover it.

The folder picker offers only folders the client could have uploaded to,
so it cannot present a destination the save would refuse. Publishing says
in plain words that anyone with the link will be able to open the file
without signing in, and says so differently when the installation has no
public page configured, because there the switch would do nothing visible.

Hiding a control is a courtesy, never the enforcement. Every can_* prop
here is the same question ApplyFileEdits asks when the form posts, and the
tests assert both ends.

Verified in a real browser over CDP rather than only by types and tests,
which say nothing about whether a page mounts: 23 edit actions on the
client's 23 own files and none on the file shared with them, the editor
mounting with its real values, every gated field present, no console
errors. The dev instance's Client role was snapshotted before the run and
restored to exactly what it was.

ignacionelson 922be7226c Let a client edit and delete the files they uploaded
A client could upload a file and then never touch it again. No rename, no
description, no expiry, no categories, no delete — the portal has three
file routes and all three are GET. Meanwhile the Roles screen happily
grants the Client role edit_files, delete_files, set_file_categories,
set_file_expiration_date and upload_public, and every one of them was
inert, because the routes that honour them are `staff`-gated rather than
permission-gated. That is what #1771 hit: a permission granted, saved, and
silently doing nothing.

A client owns what they uploaded. Ownership is now what lets them edit and
delete it, subject to the same per-field keys staff are subject to.

The obvious implementation is a trap, and it is worth writing down. Both
policy methods began `if (! $user->isStaff()) return false;` and both end
in StaffLibraryScope, whose allowsFile() reads `if (! isClientScoped())
return true` — and isClientScoped() is `isStaff() && role->client_scoped`,
so it is false for every client. Delete the early return and a client
falls into the branch meaning "this staff member is unrestricted" and is
handed the whole library. Same for folders(), which returns an unfiltered
query: a client could move their file into any folder on the installation.
So clients get their own branch, reaching neither. The portal asks
Folder::uploadableBy() instead — a file cannot be moved somewhere it could
not have been uploaded.

edit_others_files and delete_others_files stay inert for clients by
construction. A client has no others' files, only files somebody showed
them, and being shown a file is not being given it.

Which fields an editor may write moved into ApplyFileEdits, shared by the
staff editor, /api/v1 and the portal. There were two copies of the same
eight permission checks and this would have been the third; the checks are
easy, which is exactly why the drift would have been invisible. Callers
normalise their own request shape, this gates and writes and logs. Expiry
reading and writing came along too, as FileExpiry — three copies, of which
only the API's could read a timestamp.

Clients do not choose the public slug. It is derived from the name they
already picked, because an installation-wide unique slug a client sets is
a name to squat and an existence oracle to probe with.

One consequence for later, written up in docs/api-todo.md: the policy now
says yes to a client for file writes, so `staff-token` is the only thing
holding the API boundary where there used to be two independent refusals.
ActorBoundaryTest pins it, and asserts the policy passes first so the test
cannot quietly stop testing the middleware.

Also corrects a stale comment that claimed a deleted file's bytes stay on
disk. They have not since File::booted() grew a `deleted` hook; nothing
ever forceDelete()s a File row, so "until a purge lands" would have meant
never — which is why a client's delete frees their quota by exactly what
it frees on disk.

The UI comes next; this is the authorization, the routes and the tests.

denkfabrik-li 862765643b Don't name a subfolder to a client who cannot open it
MyFilesController::index() builds the portal's folder list in two
branches. At the root it narrows to $visibleIds; one level in it listed
every direct child of the folder being browsed, visible or not.

Opening one was still refused — $current is resolved through
visibleToClient() and 404s otherwise — so what escaped was the name, not
the contents. A name is worth protecting here for the same reason
VisibleCommentScope gives about its own boundary: it is what stops one
customer learning that another exists.

$visibleIds is computed once and wanted in three places. The root branch
narrows by it, the breadcrumb narrows by it, and the nested branch did
not. That is a gap rather than a distinction, and the class docblock had
already promised the opposite: "Group and internal folder names never
leak."

Reachable only where a folder is visible for the created_by reason
rather than by sharing. Inside a shared subtree every child matches by
path prefix anyway, so nothing leaks there. A client with
create_own_folders makes such a folder through POST /my-folders, and
staff can file anything inside it — FoldersController::store resolves its
parent through StaffLibraryScope, which is unfiltered for unscoped staff.

Files were never affected: that branch's query already starts from
File::query()->visibleToClient(). The breadcrumb already trims to the
first visible ancestor. Neither is touched.

ignacionelson 88c182cf3b Preview video, audio and PDF, not only images
v1 could preview four kinds of file in a modal — images, video, audio and
PDF. v2 previewed only images, and not by decision: preview shipped as part
of the image *thumbnail* work (1c68aa1), so "previewable" quietly became a
synonym for "GD can decode it". FileThumbnailController::preview() gated on
ThumbnailGenerator::SUPPORTED_MIME_TYPES, the frontend mirrored the same
four types, and the dialog was a hardcoded <img>.

Rather than widen that list — it drives pathFor(), extensionFor(),
generate() and FileDiskCleanup, and a video reaching getimagesize() is a
500 — this separates the two questions. PreviewKind now answers "may these
bytes be served inline, and what element renders them?", while
ThumbnailGenerator keeps answering the narrower "can this app decode it
itself?", which is what renditions, the cache and the watermark hook
actually depend on. Image delegates to it so the two cannot drift.

The allowlist stays a security boundary: mime_type is sniffed from the
bytes, so text/html and image/svg+xml remain excluded, and PreviewKind is
deliberately narrower than "formats a browser might cope with" — no
quicktime, avi or matroska, because an embedded player for those shows a
black rectangle. Those still download exactly as before.

docs/security-audit-2026-08-05.md finding 1 recorded that adding
application/pdf "should be a conscious decision". This is that decision,
and three things were measured rather than assumed:

- An <iframe sandbox> cannot be used. Chrome refuses to run its PDF viewer
  in a sandboxed frame at all (ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT, with or without
  allow-same-origin) — the attribute removes the feature, it does not
  harden it.
- nginx's `Content-Security-Policy: sandbox; default-src 'none'` on
  /protected-files/ does work (a <video> frame lands in an opaque origin),
  but Chrome exempts its PDF viewer from it, so it is not what protects
  the PDF case.
- What does is the allowlist plus the browser's own PDF sandbox, where PDF
  JavaScript has no DOM and no cookies.

Range requests were verified end to end: 206 with a correct Content-Range,
a byte-perfect file reassembled from three ranges, and a real browser
seeking to 10s of a 20s clip. nginx drops the upstream Content-Length on
the X-Accel path, so there is no collision.

Two settings, both defaulting on so no installation loses what it has:
clients_can_preview_files and public_listing_preview_enabled. Staff are
never gated. The anonymous side needed a route of its own — there was no
public preview endpoint — with its own throttle bucket, since a bare
throttle: shares one counter across that whole block.

A preview now logs at most one FilePreviewed per viewer per file per five
minutes: a <video> turns one deliberate act into a long tail of Range
requests, and a row each would bury the log.

Also fixes a layout bug the tests could never catch. A portal file row was
flex justify-between with three children — name, comment trigger, download
— so the middle one settled wherever the name happened to end and the
comment icon sat at a different place on every row. The name block now
takes the slack and every action lives in one trailing group, with the
comment trigger in a fixed-width slot so the icons form a column. And
because half the previewable files have no thumbnail to click — a PDF, an
mp3 and an mp4 all render as a generic icon — every row gains an explicit
PreviewAction beside DownloadAction, matching whatever style that theme
gives its download control.

ignacionelson 6e47d76ba6 ProjectSend 2.0.0
Client file sharing, rebuilt from the ground up: a private area per
client, resumable uploads, folders, groups and categories, sharing with
expiry dates and download limits, comments, file versions, an activity
log, a REST API, and sixteen languages.

This repository begins here. ProjectSend 2 was developed privately, and
that development history is not published — the previous generation
remains available, with its own history, at projectsend/legacy.
