Version 1.3.0 build 593e58c

Version 1.3.0 build 593e58c

Operations, stock, and reminders

• Added dedicated Stock, Maintenance, and Checkouts workflow pages with clearer statistics, cleaner tables, and a shared operating-area structure that makes day-to-day inventory work easier to scan.
• Added stock movement history for archive-style inventory so purchases, consumption, corrections, lending, and returns no longer live only in the current quantity field.
• Added an Inventory audit workflow with live sessions, scanner/manual confirmations, recent reports, missing-item detection, unexpected finds, and explicit snapshot-vs-current location handling instead of silently rewriting locations during a room check.
• Expanded maintenance and reminder handling with recurrence, history, editing, skip/complete flows, overdue indicators, and dashboard/sidebar signals instead of burying everything inside item edit screens.
• Reworked checkout visibility and navigation so overdue or relevant activity is surfaced through the operating menu and page-level summaries instead of crowding the main dashboard.

AI, chat, and master data

• Continued the Ina chat refinement across free chat, item creation, categories, properties, and vendors so AI actions feel more conversational, less technical, and easier to continue over multiple steps.
• Added AI-assisted vendor/master-data enrichment with suggested structured fields and multi-source logo suggestions, including better filtering for likely real logos instead of unrelated images or tiny favicons.
• Improved AI debug visibility with raw output, token counters, and provider/model badges so local Ollama and OpenAI behavior can be inspected more easily during tuning.
• Refined AI prompt management so profiles, prompt templates, and related settings are easier to maintain per installation while keeping the JSON contracts and response handling stable.

Navigation, settings, and web app polish

• Reworked the main navigation into a more compact tile-based structure with clearer grouping for Inventory, Operations, System, and Settings, including per-section indicators for pending operational tasks.
• Redesigned large parts of Settings to use calmer, more consistent section layouts, less visual noise, clearer actions, and faster save feedback through top-right status toasts instead of scattered inline messages.
• Merged branding controls more naturally into the app settings flow and expanded branding customization for logo sizing, spacing, corner radius, title behavior, and related presentation details.
• Added cleaner favorites/default handling for dashboard shortcuts and continued aligning page headers, button sizing, table spacing, and general typography across the web app.

Users, permissions, and administration

• Refined user management with clearer overview stats, lighter permission editing, avatar upload support, and a less crowded administration layout.
• Split operational permissions more precisely so stock and maintenance access can be granted separately for read and edit scenarios instead of exposing entire areas too broadly.
• Hid navigation targets and system areas that a user cannot actually use, keeping non-admin accounts focused on the parts of item+ that are relevant to their role.
• Added IOS_REVIEW_PERMISSIONS=true|false as an explicit development/review switch so newly created non-admin users can optionally receive all regular app permissions on isolated demo or App Review systems.

Internal cleanup

• Continued the backend restructuring into clearer domains such as bootstrap, database, core, HTTP, printing, storage, and websocket code, reducing the old catch-all handler/service layout.
• Continued the web app cleanup by moving oversized page/component files into more focused modules and shared UI/helper areas without changing the overall product direction.

Version 1.2.9 build e370395

Update banner

• Fixed stale update banners after replacing the server binary by normalizing the stored update-check result against the currently running item+ version before the web app renders it.
• Changed the Later / Später action to hide the banner only for the current browser session instead of storing a long-lived dismissal in local storage.
• Removed the special downloaded-update banner state so downloaded updates continue to use the normal update notice wording.

Version 1.2.8 build b02b60e

Update banner

• Fixed the update banner dismissal behavior so ignoring an update only hides that exact installed/available version pair instead of suppressing all future update notices in the browser.
• Made the web app treat the generic /api/update-status available flag as a valid update signal in addition to the detailed release/commit flags.
• Renamed the permanent-looking “Do not show again” action to “Ignore this update” / “Dieses Update ignorieren” to better match the new scoped behavior.

Version 1.2.7 build cdb3bce

SQLite reliability

• Fixed SQLite database is locked errors during device-session reconciliation by closing the session query before stale sessions are marked offline.
• Configured SQLite with a single database connection, WAL mode, normal synchronous mode, a longer busy timeout, and foreign-key enforcement while leaving MySQL/MariaDB behavior unchanged.

Version 1.2.6 build 33c35c5

1.2.6 - 2026-06-12

Manual updater

• Added the separate itemplus-update binary for explicit, admin-controlled update checks without adding any automatic external calls to the running item+ server.
• Added itemplus-update --check, which checks the GitHub release and main commit state, compares them with the installed version/build, stores the result locally in the database, and lets the web app show a local update notice.
• Added itemplus-update --download, which downloads the matching server binary for the current platform into a local updates/ folder and stores the downloaded build, asset name, and path in the database without replacing or restarting anything automatically.
• Removed the planned --run mode before release; item+ deliberately does not self-replace its running server binary. Administrators remain responsible for stopping the service, copying the downloaded binary into place, and starting item+ again.
• Added a calm update banner in the web app with release notes, installed/available build details, dismiss handling, and a “do not show again” option stored only in the browser.

AI update

• Reworked the AI settings area around explicit OpenAI and Ollama profiles, including active-profile selection, per-profile prompts, clearer model/provider controls, optional Ollama API keys for cloud web search, masked stored-key indicators, and OpenAI model discovery.
• Added an Ollama vision-capability toggle so local text-only models do not receive image payloads, while vision-capable models can still be used for photo-based item identification.
• Added a dedicated Chat page for testing the active Ina profile outside item and category workflows, with persistent session history, inline scrolling, markdown rendering, model/token badges, optional web search, attachments, a dynamic composer, and raw stream/debug output.
• Added AI usage tracking in the database for requests, input/output/total tokens, web-search usage, provider, model, feature area, status, latency, and provider-level summaries.
• Added the AI usage dashboard under its own main-menu section, including separate OpenAI/Ollama views, fixed time buckets for hour/day/week/month, a total view, request charts, and token charts.
• Added read-only inventory context for Ina so chat answers can use current items, quantities, locations, checkouts, categories, descriptions, and property values without granting write access.
• Tightened the free chat web-search trigger so everyday greetings or inventory questions no longer get treated as web-search requests unless the user clearly asks for current or external information.
• Improved AI response rendering with markdown support, calmer animated “Denke nach” states, animated new assistant messages, and previously-seen chat messages that reopen instantly instead of replaying the effect.
• Cleaned up old/static AI helper text and unused ballast so category, property, and item AI flows rely more on configured prompts and live conversation context.

AI workflows, chat UX, and settings

• Added editable AI prompt templates in Settings for item parsing, category property suggestions, and property enhancement, so each installation can tune Ina to its own inventory style instead of relying on one fixed built-in prompt.
• Added a restore-to-defaults flow for those AI prompt templates and moved the API key closer to provider, model, and base URL for a clearer configuration layout.
• Reworked the category and property AI flows from “additional instructions” into a more explicit task-based chat with a visible conversational history, user/assistant roles, and a calmer message composer.
• Introduced Ina as the named assistant in the web app and aligned the assistant prompts so the model can answer in a more natural, context-aware voice instead of sounding like a generated report.
• Changed category and property AI behavior so the current conversation history is passed back into the model, allowing follow-up answers, small clarifications, and mixed relevant/irrelevant user messages to be interpreted more naturally.
• Updated the category/property AI drawers so they can be reopened from the header, remain available while a session is active, and are ended explicitly through a dedicated “end chat session” action instead of disappearing as soon as the drawer closes.
• Replaced the separate info-first category/property AI flow with a more direct chat-first interaction, including clearer follow-up handling, calmer “thinking” animation, and keyboard-friendly chat sending (Enter to send, Shift+Enter for line breaks).
• Added inline editing for select and multiselect options in the property editor, so option labels can be corrected directly without deleting and recreating them.
• Exposed more property-type details during editing, including select/multiselect custom-value settings and weight units, and removed leftover placeholders that made the editor feel more generated than intentional.
• Reworked the item-create AI drawer into the same Ina chat model: simplified header actions, fewer debug/status panels, editable basics inside the drawer, and a smaller bottom composer with chat/session/photo actions gathered in one place.
• Added contextual AI suggestion cards that attach directly to the Ina message that produced them, keeping field/property suggestions inside the conversation instead of isolating them in a detached technical block.
• Added scanned barcodes to the item-create AI context panel so Ina can see the same basis information the user sees while preparing or refining a draft.
• Restored the photo-to-Ina flow inside item creation, including connected-iPhone-only camera actions, waiting states, and showing the uploaded photo itself as a user chat message once it arrives.
• Made the item-create device bridge more tolerant of photo.uploaded events whose purpose field is missing as long as a temporary image ID is present, preventing the AI photo flow from getting stuck in “waiting for photo”.
• Added temporary-image retrieval for AI uploads so freshly captured photos can be rendered directly in the chat instead of only being referenced indirectly by the AI request.
• Improved wording and localization across the Ina surfaces, including German umlauts in visible UI copy, quieter button labels such as Senden, and more neutral suggestion headings that fit the conversational flow better.

Web app polish and navigation

• Moved Settings and Logout out of the sidebar account block and into compact header icons, leaving the main menu cleaner.
• Added a dedicated AI menu section with links for usage and chat/testing surfaces.
• Improved light-mode chat styling so Ina conversations remain readable outside dark mode.
• Recolored external SFTP storage settings with an emerald accent for selected sources, authentication choices, active toggles, and save actions, matching the storage domain instead of the generic blue settings accent.
• Added optional count fields for select properties, allowing schemas such as Medium = CD-ROM plus Anzahl = 2 without forcing multiselect usage.
• Added one-click sorting for select and multiselect choices by name, plus an ID order button to return to the original saved option order before saving.
• Fixed iPhone-confirmed deletes so category properties, categories, and items refresh correctly without requiring a manual page reload.

Attachments and external storage

• Fixed SFTP-backed video previews by serving external SFTP attachment streams through range-aware HTTP content serving, restoring browser playback, seeking, and metadata loading for MP4 and other video files.
• Silenced expected SFTP request-cancel noise during video seeking so aborted browser range requests no longer appear as real SFTP stream errors in the server log.

Version 1.2.5 build b40ef91

Account deletion and review compliance

• Added a real account-deletion flow to the iPhone app so users can remove their account directly from Settings instead of being sent to an external support path.
• Added the same account-deletion flow to the web app Settings area, including an inline confirmation step and clean logout/redirect behavior after a successful delete.
• Blocked account deletion while a user still has active checkouts, so lending state cannot be broken or silently orphaned by a self-delete.
• Prevented admin accounts from deleting themselves through the regular account-deletion flow, avoiding accidental lockout of the installation owner or only administrator.
• Released archive and collection location manager assignments automatically when a non-admin account is deleted, so locations never remain stuck behind a removed manager.
• Localized account-deletion blockers and related review-facing messaging consistently across the web app and iPhone app.

Authentication and first-sign-in flow

• Changed the iPhone Apple sign-in flow so a missing account no longer gets created implicitly on first login.
• Added an explicit in-app registration confirmation step on iPhone when Apple sign-in succeeds but no item+ account exists yet, making account creation a deliberate user action.
• Kept the configurable AUTO_ACTIVATED server behavior for new users while making the first-run and review flows easier to reason about operationally.

iPhone app polish

• Replaced the remaining system-style account prompts in the iPhone app with item+-styled confirmation cards for registration, deletion, and deletion blockers.
• Improved the scanner presentation with the darker masked preview and quieter cutout treatment refined during App Store review preparation.
• Prepared the iPhone release track for 1.2.5 with build 12501.

AI update

• Reworked the AI settings area around explicit OpenAI and Ollama profiles, including active-profile selection, per-profile prompts, clearer model/provider controls, optional Ollama API keys for cloud web search, and masked stored-key indicators.
• Added model discovery for OpenAI-compatible /v1/models endpoints so available models can be fetched from Settings instead of being typed manually every time.
• Added an Ollama vision-capability toggle so local text-only models do not receive image payloads, while vision-capable models can still be used for photo-based item identification.
• Added a dedicated Chat page for testing the active Ina profile outside item and category workflows, with persistent session history, inline scrolling, markdown rendering, model/token badges, optional web search, attachments, and a dynamic chat composer.
• Added raw AI stream/debug output and token usage badges to the general chat, category AI flow, and item-create AI flow, making local Ollama and OpenAI behavior easier to compare while tuning prompts.
• Added AI usage tracking in the database for requests, input/output/total tokens, web-search usage, provider, model, feature area, status, and latency.

Version 1.2.4 Build 13ce061

AI, categories, and item creation

• Reworked the item-create AI flow into a quieter icon-first UI with a dedicated info drawer instead of large inline status and debug blocks.
• Added shared floating AI start notifications so item drafts, category property suggestions, and property enhancements all show the same clear “starting” feedback.
• Improved item-create AI matching so existing select and multiselect options are preferred first, while still preserving original specific values when a category allows free-text fallbacks.
• Added AI review hints for properties whose current options are too coarse, including the exact original values the model found so category schemas can be refined later.
• Added AI-assisted property suggestion for existing categories and AI-assisted improvement for existing properties, including additional-instructions fields for legacy, collector-focused, and standards-heavy datasets.
• Added support for custom Other (free text) values in select and multiselect properties without changing the underlying property model.
• Simplified barcode-first AI identification and improved timeout handling for slower OpenAI Responses requests, with clearer user-facing timeout messaging.

Web app polish

• Fixed the new-item barcode handoff so scanned barcodes are consumed once and no longer reappear after leaving and reopening the item form.
• Added a custom item+ 404 page and a hidden easter egg route mode with an iddqd god mode cheat for the 404 mini-game.
• Improved light-mode contrast for item detail checkout banners and related status surfaces so TWP-inspired light styling stays readable.
• Fixed category location ordering persistence for both top-level locations and nested child locations.
• Added a reusable floating notification component for richer in-app feedback patterns.
• Added consistent pending-delete spinners for users, categories, locations, vendors, and attachments so iPhone-confirmed deletes now visibly wait everywhere instead of only on items.

iOS app

• Switched the home screen browser activity area from horizontal scrolling pills to a clearer vertical session list.
• Replaced the plain delete-confirm popup for remote web-triggered deletes with a custom-styled in-app confirmation overlay.
• Fixed multiple Swift 6 concurrency issues in the printer bridge service around sendable closures, finish-state handling, and pointer access.
• Reworked the scanner overlay with a darker masked camera preview, cleaner centered cutout, and calmer header styling.
• Polished the login flow for App Store review with a configurable default server, clearer server settings, earlier language selection, and a localized Apple sign-in button.

Authentication and review readiness

• Added AUTO_ACTIVATED=true|false to the Go server configuration so new Apple and magic-link users can either become active immediately or still require manual admin activation.
• Kept the first user bootstrap path as an always-active admin while leaving follow-up account activation configurable per installation.
• Simplified first-review onboarding by allowing demo and review setups to default to direct sign-in without weakening the permission model.

Landing and public docs

• Moved the landing site to a Jekyll-based GitHub Pages layout under docs, with matching privacy and imprint pages, DE/EN switching, and refreshed product copy.
• Updated the landing feature section to better reflect current item+, including bundles, components, managed SFTP attachment sources, and the companion role of the iPhone app.

Version 1.2.3 Build f0a251f

Version 1.2.3 Build f0a251f

Backend and web app

• Added app-wide barcode handoff from the iPhone bridge so barcode scans can open the web app directly in the new-item flow.
• Fixed AI settings loading on MariaDB/MySQL by quoting app_settings.key, so enabled AI state now survives reloads correctly.
• Refined AI request handling with a lighter barcode-first identification mode, locale-aware response language, simpler enrichment prompts, and safer output token handling.
• Improved streaming robustness for AI suggestions by processing the final SSE buffer correctly when the model returns the result at stream end.

iPhone bridge

• Upgraded the default scanner flow to handle QR codes and linear barcodes together, forwarding regular product barcodes into the existing web app item-creation path.
• Updated scan labels and messaging so the bridge now presents barcode-aware code scanning more clearly.

Version 1.2.2 Build 32757ed

Version 1.2.2 Build 32757ed

1.2.2 - 2026-05-23

Backend and web app

• Preserved the active realm when mobile bridge events open an item in the browser, preventing archive/collection mix-ups for matching item IDs.
• Updated the browser bridge handler so item navigation from connected mobile clients switches realm before opening the item detail page.
• Removed the packaged Linux/systemd installer, unit, and config example; the README now keeps Linux service setup as manual guidance only.

Version 1.2.1 Build c9c8790

Version 1.2.1 Build c9c8790

1.2.1 - 2026-05-22

Web app

• Fixed item grid edit actions so they open the dedicated edit page instead of the detail view.
• Removed the duplicate top image upload from add/edit item forms and moved attachment management to the top of the edit flow.
• Added an optional setting to show attachment upload actions on item detail pages for users with attachment write permissions.
• Updated attachment upload, link, SFTP, and attachment edit dialogs to match the TWP dark form styling.
• Improved the edit page title, iPhone connection labels in English, and detail-page attachment behavior.

Data and repository

• Added merge-safe English and German SQL import files for the curated demo data without creating users or applying bundle/checkout state.
• Added a MariaDB/MySQL clear database helper that preserves user accounts while resetting item data.
• Refreshed the public screenshots for the 1.2 web UI.
