Move shared type contracts from `contracts` to new `api-contracts` module in `compute/core` for clearer API boundaries. Remove legacy `contracts`, `pdf`, and `whisper` index files. Update all imports to use `api-contracts`. Refactor server job logic by replacing `parsePdfJob.ts` with modular `user-pdf-layout-job.ts` and `user-whisper-align-job.ts`, updating all relevant API routes and compute integration. This improves maintainability and separation of concerns across compute and server layers.
Move and re-export all PDF parsing and TTS-related types from
@openreader/compute-core/types, eliminating local type duplication.
Update imports throughout the codebase to use the new centralized type
module. Remove obsolete worker-contract file and update tsconfig paths
and compute-core exports for the new types entry point. Refactor API
routes and job logic to use the new type imports and shared parse-state
healing utility. This streamlines type management and improves
consistency between compute and app layers.
Introduce automatic healing for stale PDF parse states in API routes. Add
`isDocumentParseStateStale` utility and use a shared `COMPUTE_OP_STALE_MS`
environment variable (with config getter) to control the stale window for both
worker op replacement and app-side parse-state healing. Update documentation and
environment variable references to reflect new config.
Enables automatic marking of stuck parses as failed, improving reliability and
retry behavior in distributed compute environments.
Update PDF viewer and document hook to improve parse status management:
- Set parseStatus to null on clear instead of 'pending' for accurate state
- Explicitly set initial parseStatus and reset parseProgress when loading a new document
- Adjust loader display logic to check for resolved parse status before showing expanded loader
Prevents UI inconsistencies and ensures parse progress is reflected correctly during document transitions.
Introduce idle and hard cap timeouts for PDF layout parsing in the compute worker,
ensuring long-running jobs are capped and progress is tracked with explicit
timeouts. Refactor NATS JetStream client initialization to use a configurable
API timeout. Update PDF viewer UI to treat parse state as 'pending' by default,
improving clarity during document preparation and parsing. Refine parse loader
labels and progress logic for more accurate user feedback.
Update compute worker to use separate environment variable for PDF job attempts
(`COMPUTE_PDF_JOB_ATTEMPTS`) and set Whisper job max deliveries to 1, clarifying
and separating retry logic between job types. Adjust `.env.example` and deployment
docs to comment out defaults and document new/renamed variables for advanced tuning.
In TTS segment ensure route, introduce explicit timeouts for Whisper alignment
operations, with configurable durations for local and worker modes, improving
robustness and error handling for long-running alignments.
Revise PDF viewer to introduce an explicit 'unknown' parse state and improve
loader and status messaging for better user clarity. Refactor Spinner to use
'currentColor' for border styling and simplify conditional rendering based on
className. Expand compute worker .env.example with explicit concurrency,
timeout, and job attempt variables for enhanced configuration transparency.
Enhance PDF parse loader transitions by introducing a delayed expansion for detailed progress, reducing UI flicker during parse-to-render handoff. Refactor PDFViewer to ensure document readiness is signaled only once per load, preventing redundant callbacks and improving synchronization between parsing and rendering states.
Introduce detailed progress reporting for PDF layout parsing, exposing phase and page-level updates to clients. Replace legacy parseStatus with a structured parseState field in the database schema, updating all relevant backend and API logic. Add SSE endpoint for real-time parse progress updates. Update client hooks and UI to reflect granular progress and improve user feedback during document parsing. Includes migration scripts and new parse-state utility module.

Add new operation request/state types and update worker endpoints to accept generic operation requests and expose operation status via SSE. Refactor client and server logic to support operation flows. Update deployment docs, environment examples, and Dockerfile to reflect new architecture and dependency management.
Add ability to fetch parsed documents using a stored S3 key, enabling more flexible blob access patterns. Update API route to prefer `parsedJsonKey` if present, falling back to legacy lookup. Introduce `COMPUTE_WORKER_WAIT_TIMEOUT_MS` environment variable for customizing worker job wait time, with a new default of 120 seconds. Update documentation and examples to reflect these changes.
Eliminate the smartSentenceSplitting configuration flag from application state, UI, and all TTS and audiobook adapter logic. Consolidate TTS segment planning to always include context units, streamlining code and reducing conditional branches. Update tests and type definitions to reflect the removal of this feature toggle.
Update TTS segment prefetching logic to handle arrays of CanonicalTtsSourceUnit for upcoming and next locations, enabling more precise TTS segment mapping. Expand cache key construction to include providerType and instructions, improving cache differentiation for TTS requests. Adjust related types and usages to support richer segment metadata propagation.
Introduce sourceUnitsFromParsedPage helper to extract CanonicalTtsSourceUnit
objects from parsed PDF pages, filtering by block kind and text content. Update
TTS state setter to include extracted source units when available, enabling
improved TTS segment mapping and future extensibility.
Unify and improve layout settling logic across EPUB, HTML, and PDF viewers by
adding delayed recomputation and guarding against zero-height container during
transient states. Refactor PDF document loading to include retry logic with
success detection, ensuring robust handling of transient failures. Update
Playwright test helpers to provide more reliable PDF viewer readiness checks
and introduce request retry utilities for backend API calls. Add targeted unit
tests for single-section chapter fallback in the PDF audiobook adapter. Update
test files and helpers to align with new layout and export logic.
Refactor compute backend initialization to use asynchronous loading and promise caching, replacing previous synchronous singleton pattern. Update all consumers—including TTS segment alignment and PDF layout parsing jobs—to await compute backend resolution before invoking methods. This change improves compatibility with dynamic imports and future-proofs backend selection logic.
Eliminate unused PDF text extraction logic and margin-based filtering from the client library. Refactor API routes to generalize parse status normalization, removing explicit references to deprecated "unsupported" status and type variants. Update usages to accept string parse statuses for improved flexibility. Simplify document state dependency tracking in the PDF document hook.
Eliminate the "none" compute mode and all related code paths, including the NoneComputeBackend, "unsupported" parse status, and PDF margin settings. Parsing is now always available if the app starts successfully, and configuration is limited to "local" or "worker" compute modes. Update types, API routes, client adapters, and documentation to reflect this simplification.
BREAKING CHANGE: "none" is no longer a valid COMPUTE_MODE; only "local" and "worker" are supported. "unsupported" parse status and PDF margin settings are removed.

Refine TypeScript types and hooks for improved type safety and maintainability.
Move runtime config resolution logic to a new `runtime-config-rsc.ts` module for use in React Server Components. Update public layout and landing page to consume the RSC-specific resolver, improving compatibility and separation of concerns.
Introduce `enableUserSignups` runtime setting to allow administrators to control
whether new accounts can be created. Update environment variable and documentation
references to support this feature. UI elements for account creation are now
conditionally rendered based on this flag. Signup attempts are blocked server-side
when disabled, including email, OAuth, and anonymous upgrades.
Add `assertUserSignupAllowed` utility for consistent enforcement and corresponding
unit tests to verify policy behavior.
Refactor chapter API to use new coerceAudiobookGenerationSettings utility for
validating and migrating audiobook metadata. Add src/lib/server/audiobooks/settings.ts
