 This document tracks the immediate implementation checklist. For overarching design and constraints, see [PROJECT_ARCHITECTURE.md](PROJECT_ARCHITECTURE.md).
 
 ## Implementation Status
-- [x] **Phase 1: Backend Foundation** (FastAPI, SQLite, Models).
+- [ ] **Phase 8: Database Encryption** (Implementing SQLCipher for data-at-rest protection).
-- [x] **Phase 2: Modular AI Integration** (Gemini support, v2 SDK).
+- [ ] **Phase 9: Multi-Location Support** (Tracking inventory across different physical warehouses).
-- [x] **Phase 3: AI Onboarding UI** (Validation Mask, Camera integration).
-- [x] **Phase 4: Offline Synchronization** (Deduplicated Dexie -> SQL sync logic).
-- [x] **Phase 5: Inventory Trash Management** (Waste/Discard/Damage workflow).
-- [ ] **Phase 6: Audit Log Dashboard UI** (Visual historical interventions).
 
 *(Note: Completed phases are periodically moved to `dev_docs/PLAN_HISTORY.md` according to AI_RULES)*

+- **Local OCR Priority:** Before checking individual S/Ns, the matching engine searches for `box_label` tokens. If a box is identified:

 ## 6. Automation & Versioning (`scripts/`)
 - **`scripts/save_version.py`**: Implements the `save-version` AI Command Shortcut. Increments `VERSION.json` patch version, commits all staged changes, creates a snapshot branch `v.X.Y.Z`, and calls `./export_prod.sh` to generate the production bundle. Always stays on the `dev` branch.
 
+
+## 7. Security & Hardening (v1.4.0)
+To ensure enterprise-grade protection, the following policies are enforced:
+
+### 7.1 Access Control & RBAC
+- **Strict Separation:** Operations are divided into `user` and `admin` roles.
+- **Admin Only:** Critical operations such as `DELETE /items/`, user management, and DB settings are restricted via the `auth.get_current_admin` dependency.
+- **User Role:** Standard users are permitted to perform check-in/out and list inventory, but cannot delete catalog entries.
+
+### 7.2 Brute-Force Protection
+- **Rate Limiting:** Implemented via `slowapi`. The `login` endpoint is limited to **5 requests per minute** per IP to mitigate automated credential stuffing.
+
+### 7.3 Data Privacy
+- **Information Scrubbing:** Backend logs are configured to intercept and mask sensitive auth tokens or internal secrets (e.g., `JWT_SECRET_KEY`) during debug output.
+- **Direct Bind LDAP:** Authentication uses direct user binding to the LDAP server, avoiding the need for a privileged service account with broad search permissions.
+
+### 7.4 PWA Trust & Security
+- **HTTPS Enforcement:** The system requires TLS (Port 3003) for camera access and secure token transmission.
+- **Manifest Integrity:** A comprehensive `manifest.json` ensures the app is recognized as a trusted PWA on mobile platforms (iOS/Android).

USER_GUIDE.md

@@ -31,16 +31,23 @@ The application supports two scanning modes:
 ### Manual / Barcode Scanning
 Scan an existing barcode to locate or update an item in your inventory.
 
-### Client-Side Label Scanning (OCR)
-Point your device's camera at a product label. The scanner **automatically analyzes the label every 4 seconds** — no button press required. A countdown timer shows when the next scan will occur.
-
-When text is detected:
-1. A preview of the captured image appears.
-2. Detected words are highlighted — tap the correct product name or serial number.
-3. The selected text populates the relevant field automatically.
-
 If no readable text is found, the scanner silently retries on the next cycle.
 
+### Box & Container Scanning (NEW v1.5.0)
+You can now scan a generic label on a box (e.g., "SFP Box 1") to identify all its contents at once.
+- If the box contains **one type of item**, the application takes you directly to the stock adjustment screen.
+- If the box contains **multiple items**, a list will appear for you to select which specific item you are withdrawing or adding.
+- This feature works **locally and offline** - no AI costs for scanning boxes.
+
+---
+
+## 🏷️ Label Printing
+Administrators and users can generate physical labels for boxes to ensure 100% accurate scanning.
+1. Tap the **Package (Box)** icon in the header to open the **Box Inventory**.
+2. Find the box you want to label and tap **Print Label**.
+3. **Desktop:** Use the print dialog to send the label directly to a Dymo/Brother thermal printer.
+4. **Mobile:** Use **"Save for Mobile App"** to download a PNG image of the label, which you can then print using your Bluetooth printer's app (like NIIMBOT).

+# MASTER PLAN: Box/Container Scanning & Printing Architecture
+
+Acest plan detaliat descrie arhitectura tehnică și etapele procedurale necesare pentru a echipa sistemul TFM aInventory cu funcționalități de recunoaștere a cutiilor (Box Scanning). Este structurat astfel încât orice AI să poată prelua dezvoltarea exact din punctul în care a fost oprită.
+
+---
+
+## Etapele Implementării
+
+### ETAPA 1: Local OCR Box Scanning (Funcționalitate Principală)
+
+Această etapă extinde logica existență a scanner-ului pentru a citi local (via `Tesseract.js` pe frontend) textul generic scris pe cutii și a direcționa utilizatorul automat spre inventarul acelei cutii.
+
+#### Pasul 1.1: Backend și Modele de Date
+*   **Database Migration**: Rularea efectivă (prin `sqlite3 / bash`) pe baza de date de producție a unui query: `ALTER TABLE items ADD COLUMN box_label TEXT;`
+*   **File `backend/models.py`**: Adăugarea coloanei `box_label = Column(String, index=True, nullable=True)` în modelul `Item`.
+*   **File `backend/schemas.py`**: Expoziția acesteia prin Pydantic: `box_label: Optional[str] = None` în `ItemBase`.
+*   **File `backend/routers/items.py`**: Maparea noului câmp la crearea și editarea de itemi, dar **CRITIC**: actualizarea snapshot-urilor JSON de audit (`AuditLogs`), adăugând `"box_label": db_item.box_label` la istoricul imuabil.
+
+#### Pasul 1.2: Frontend Offline Storage & Formulare UI
+*   **File `frontend/lib/db.ts`**: Adăugarea `box_label?: string;` în interfața TypeScript `Item`. Upgrade la _Dexie database version_ pentru indexarea `items: '++id, barcode, name, category, box_label, ...'`.
+*   **File `frontend/components/AIOnboarding.tsx` & `page.tsx` (Meniul de Editare)**: 
+    *   Adăugarea câmpului UI "Box/Container Label".
+    *   Câmpul devine un `datalist` dropdown conectat la un array derivat `existingBoxes`: `Array.from(new Set(inventory.map(i => i.box_label).filter(Boolean)))`. 
+    *   Asta permite la Onboarding selecția rapidă dintr-o listă a unei cutii deja utilizate.
+*   **File `frontend/app/page.tsx` (Bara de Căutare Generală)**: Extinderea filtrelor de vizibilitate `inventory.filter()` pentru a include textul introdus în caseta de căutare principală dacă matcheaza cu un `box_label`.
+
+#### Pasul 1.3: Router-ul de Inteligență al Scannerului (`onOCRMatch`)
+*   **Fișier Principal `frontend/app/page.tsx`**: Acolo unde rulează bucla `Scanner.tsx` OCR o dată la 4 secunde, se injectează logica nouă de intercepție în `onOCRMatch()`.
+*   **Logica Funcțională**:
+    1. **Fuzzy String Match**: Compară masiv șirul dezordonat venit de la cameră cu toate `item.box_label` existente.
+    2. Filtrăm array-ul temporar `possibleBoxMatches`.
+    3. Dacă `possibleBoxMatches.length === 1`: Sistemul selectează instant acel produs -> `setShowScanner(false); setSelectedItem(match);`. Trecere directă la editare stoc (din cauză că este o cutie dedicată).
+    4. Dacă `possibleBoxMatches.length > 1`: S-a recunoscut "cutia cu SFP-uri" care conține 5 modele diferite. Sistemul va popa un **Modal Interstitial NOU: "Alegeți Item-ul din Cutie"**. Acest modal randează un array vizual ca meniu. Odată făcut click pe un item, deschide panoul de CheckIn/Out pentru el.
+    5. Dacă cutia nu matchează cu niciun `box_label`, dă `fallback` la logica clasică de `onOCRMatch` (să recunoască S/N-ul individual sau Part Number-ul exact).
+
+---
+
+### ETAPA 2: Sistem de Generare și Printare Etichete pe Cutii (Funcționalitate Secundară)
+
+Misiunea de a crea un cod unic perfect (lipsit de ratele de eroare ale OCR-ului generic) pentru cutii, pe care angajații să îl poată printa direct pe o imprimantă Dymo/Brother sau descărca ca poză.
+
+#### Pasul 2.1: Identificatori Generatori Vizuali
+*   **Logică PWA**: Nu vom rula backend separat pentru imagini; le vom genera via HTML Canvas pe Frontend pentru lățime de bandă 0.
+*   **Dependință Nouă UI**: Instalarea `react-barcode` / `qrcode.react` pe frontend pentru desenarea instantanee vizuală bazată pe șirul textual din `box_label` (ex: textul "SFPx5-BOX" -> devine un QRCode valid).
+
+#### Pasul 2.2: Managementul Meniului de Printare
+*   Afișare Modul `[📦 Tablou Cutii]`, vizibil din Setări/Admin sau în meniul Item-urilor, care grupează itemii per `box_label`.
+*   Fiecare categorie de "cutie" are buton dedicat: **[Printează Etichetă (Generează Cod)]**.
+*   **Metoda Multi-Platformă**:
+    *   Când este apăsat generăm un obiect izolat DOM (div hidden).
+    *   Folosim clase CSS media de izolare `@media print { @page { size: 62mm 29mm; } body * { display: none; } #print-area { display: block; } }`. 
+    *   Asta triggerează popup-ul de print nativ MacOS/Windows perfect adaptat unei imprimante etichetatoare de birou Dymo/Brother.
+    *   **Fallback Mobil (iOS/Android)**: Lângă opțiunea de "Print direct", adăugăm buton de **[Salvează pe Telefon (Imagine.png)]**. Utilizatorul transferă imaginea perfect rasterizată (canvas via `toDataURL()`) în rola foto pentru a deschide aplicația portabilă proprietară de print Bluetooth (ex: Niimbot app).

-## STATUS: 🟢 STABLE — SECURITY HARDENING & PWA OPTIMIZATION COMPLETE
+## STATUS: 🟢 STABLE — BOX MANAGEMENT & LABEL PRINTING COMPLETE (v1.5.0)
 
-The TFM aInventory v1.4.0 is now fully hardened, tested, and optimized for mobile/enterprise use. All security vulnerabilities identified in the audit have been addressed, and the UI has been upgraded to a high-fidelity "Premium" standard.
+The TFM aInventory v1.5.0 has been upgraded with a powerful local-first Box/Container management system. Users can now group items into boxes, identify them instantly via local OCR, and print physical Barcode/QR labels directly from the PWA.

 ## WHAT WAS DONE THIS SESSION
 
-### 1. Security Hardening (Backend)
+### 1. Box Management Architecture (Backend)
-- **Rate Limiting** — Implemented `slowapi` on `/users/login` (5 req/min) to prevent brute-force attacks.
+- **Database Schema** — Added `box_label` column to the `items` table.
-- **RBAC Enforcement** — Restricted `DELETE /items/` exclusively to the **Admin** role.
+- **Audit Integrity** — Updated `AuditLog` snapshots to capture `box_label` at the time of each transaction, ensuring immutable historical traceability even if items are moved.
-- **Sensitive Data** — Scrubbed `JWT_SECRET_KEY` and other sensitive snippets from debug logs.
+- **API Support** — Exposed `box_label` in Pydantic schemas and item routers.
-- **REST API Testing** — Developed an automated Python test suite (`backend/tests/api_bench.py`) to verify Auth, RBAC, and Rate Limiting. Confirmed all **PASS**.
 
-### 2. Admin & LDAP Integration
+### 2. Intelligent Scanner Routing (Frontend)
-- **Dual Group Mapping** — Restored the UI fields for strictly mapping separated Admin and User groups in LDAP.
+- **Box Match Priority** — Rewrote the scanner's `onOCRMatch` logic to prioritize box labels.
-- **TLS Configuration** — Replaced the text link with a high-visibility **Switch Component** for TLS activation.
+- **Multi-Item Support** — Developed a "Box Contents" interstitial modal that handles containers with multiple distinct item types.
-- **State Cleanup** — Fixed initialization bugs where the Enterprise card wouldn't load from disk correctly.
+- **Token Matching** — Implemented a local fuzzy token-matching engine for generic box text recognition without AI costs.
 
-### 3. PWA & Mobile Expert Audit
+### 3. Dependency-Free Label System
-- **Icon Assets** — Generated missing PWA icons (192, 512, maskable) from the source logo using `sips`.
+- **Native Generation** — Built a zero-dependency SVG engine for Code 128 Barcodes and QR Codes (`lib/labels.ts`).
-- **Manifest Upgrade** — Added "Maskable" icon support, orientation lock, and app shortcuts.
+- **Box Manager Dashboard** — Added a dedicated UI to view all existing boxes and trigger label generation.
-- **iOS Support** — Added Apple-specific meta tags (`apple-mobile-web-app-capable`, status bar styles) for a native experience on iPhone.
+- **Hybrid Printing** — Implemented CSS `@media print` for professional desktop printers and "Save as PNG" rasterization for portable Bluetooth printers on mobile.
 
-### 4. Modern CSS & Visual Excellence
+### 4. UI/UX Excellence
-- **Glassmorphism** — Created and applied a custom `.glass-card` utility (backdrop-blur-xl + subtle gradients) to all primary UI sections.
+- **Search Integration** — Integrated `box_label` into the global search filter.
-- **Safe Areas** — Implemented `pb-safe` to ensure bottom navigation doesn't overlap with iOS home bars.
+- **Onboarding Support** — Added Box Label association to the AI-powered onboarding workflow with smart `datalist` suggestions.
-- **Fluid Typography** — Added `clamp()` based scaling for better readability across devices.
+- **Visual Polish** — Applied Lucide `Package` iconography and consistent branding to the new modules.
-
-### 5. Production Export Cleanup
-- **`export_prod.sh`** — Updated to explicitly exclude `tests/` folders and development benchmarking scripts.
-- **New Bundle** — Generated a clean **`aInventory-PROD-v1.4.0.zip`**.
 
 ---
 
 ## WHAT THE NEXT AI MUST DO
 
-1. **Database Encryption** — Consider implementing SQLite encryption at rest (SQLCipher) as per the security report.
+1. **Database Encryption** — Consider implementing SQLite encryption at rest (SQLCipher) if requested.
 2. **Persistent JWT** — If requested, move the `JWT_SECRET_KEY` to a `.env` file for session persistence across server restarts.
+3. **Advanced Filtering** — Extend the Box Manager to allow bulk movements between boxes.
 3. **LDAP Probe** — The "Test Connection" button may show "Partial Success" (handshake rejected) due to anonymous bind restrictions; login itself works fine.
 4. **Monitoring** — If the rate limiter triggers too frequently for legitimate users, adjust the `slowapi` limit in `backend/routers/users.py`.
