+
+Every ingest path names a file's format with `guess_content_type` (`services/utils.py`), never with
+`mimetypes.guess_type` directly and never with what the client said. Python's built-in map answers
+`None` for `.mobi`, `.azw`, `.prc`, `.fb2`, `.fbz`, `.lit`, `.lrf` and `.cb7` — most of what a
+library imported from elsewhere carries — so `EBOOK_CONTENT_TYPES` fills those in. A browser's
+`application/octet-stream` is discarded rather than used as a fallback: it is the client saying it
+does not know, and storing it is indistinguishable from having determined a format.
+
+When nothing can name the extension the column **stays null**. That is the honest answer, and only
+one consumer cannot take it: OPDS `Link.type` is a required string, so
+`services/opds/opds.py` substitutes `application/octet-stream` at that boundary. Litestar's
+`ASGIFileResponse` already does its own fallback, so `get_file` can pass a null straight through.

+## Importing from Calibre
+
+Two pieces, deliberately separated:
+
+- **`services/calibre.py`** reads `metadata.db` and the tree beside it. It knows nothing about
+ `Book`, `BookService` or a session, so it is testable without Postgres, and it reports what
+ Calibre wrote rather than what Chitai wants — identifiers come back keyed by `identifiers.type`
+ verbatim. It also unpacks a zipped library (`extract_calibre_archive`).
+- **`BookService.create_many_from_calibre`** does the ingest, next to the two other ingest paths
+ because it needs the same privates they do (`_reserve_book_path`, `_save_cover_image`,
+ `_screen_for_duplicates`). The CLI in `cli.py` is a thin wrapper over it.
+- **`services/calibre_import.py`** is lifecycle only — the job registry behind the endpoints:
+ state, progress, cancellation, and a session of its own.
+
+`docs/calibre-import.md` is the full brief, including the phases not built yet. What matters here:
+
+- **Files are copied, never moved.** `metadata.db` would go on pointing at files that are gone,
+ which quietly ruins a library somebody still uses. `copy_file` streams rather than using
+ `shutil.copy`, which would block the loop for a 40 MB read.
+- **The extractors are not run.** This is the one ingest path that trusts its input: Calibre's
+ catalogue is curated and its filenames are truncated to ~42 characters, so `data.name` locates a
+ file and the database carries the metadata. The title is stored verbatim for the same reason —
+ no edition split out, no subtitle guessed.
+- **The catalogue is copied before it is read**, and the copy is opened read-write. Calibre may be
+ running; opening the live file either sees a torn state or needs to recover a write-ahead log,
+ which read-only access cannot do. `close()` removes the copy in a `finally`, or a failure leaves
+ a catalogue-sized file in the temp directory.
+- **`check_same_thread=False` plus an `asyncio.Lock`.** Every query runs through
+ `asyncio.to_thread`, which hands out whichever worker is free, so the connection outlives the
+ thread that opened it. The lock is what makes that safe. Removing either one reintroduces
+ `SQLite objects created in a thread can only be used in that same thread`, intermittently —
+ the pool often reuses one thread, so it passes until it does not.
+- **One book never costs the run.** A failure is recorded in `CalibreImportResult.failed`, the
+ session is rolled back so the next book can use it, and the files that book had already copied
+ are deleted — an orphaned directory would make the next attempt reserve `title (2)` and look as
+ though it had worked. A cover that PIL cannot open costs the cover, not the book.
+- **`calibre-uuid`, not `uuid`.** `books.uuid` is stable for the life of the row, so it is the
+ durable link back to the source and worth matching on. `uuid` is the name `normalize_identifier`
+ refuses, because an EPUB regenerates one per build.
+
+### The API takes an uploaded archive; the CLI takes a path
+
+**`POST /libraries/{id}/imports/calibre/upload`** is the only way in over HTTP. It takes a zipped
+Calibre library, answers **202** with a job handle, and unpacks into a temp directory the job owns.
+`GET /libraries/imports/{job_id}` is polled; `DELETE` on the same path stops it.
+
+There is deliberately **no endpoint that imports from a server path**. A desktop Calibre install is
+not on the server, and importing from a path the server can already see is a server-side operation
+— which is what `litestar --app-dir src/chitai/ calibre-import --library ` is for,
+including its `--dry-run`. Do not add the path endpoint back without being asked: it was built,
+then removed on purpose.
+
+- **The registry is in memory, so it assumes one worker process.** That holds today (`litestar run`
+ is single-process, and the consume watcher is already an in-process singleton), but the day
+ `TODO.md`'s "production image runs the development server" item is fixed with a worker count, a
+ poll can land on a worker that never heard of the job. `services/calibre_import.py` says so at
+ the top; an `import_jobs` table is the answer when that happens.
+- **The job opens its own session.** The request that started it is long gone and its session
+ closed with it.
+- **Cancelling is not aborting.** A flag is read between books, never during one, so a cancelled
+ import leaves whole books behind and never half of one. `task.cancel()` would abandon a book
+ mid-copy and leave files with no row describing them.
+- **The job deletes its workspace** — the unpacked archive is a second copy of the whole library,
+ and the books worth keeping have been copied into the library proper by the time it ends. Removed
+ even when the run failed, since nothing will come back for it.
+- **Extraction refuses** an entry pointing outside the archive (zip slip), an archive that will not
+ fit on disk, and one with no `metadata.db` within three levels. All three answer 400 before a job
+ exists, rather than as a job that reports FAILED a moment later.
+- **The upload is streamed both sides.** The archive reaches disk in chunks rather than being read
+ whole, and the SvelteKit proxy passes `request.body` through instead of buffering it — see
+ `frontend/AGENTS.md`.
+
+Things Calibre does that will produce wrong data if you forget them are documented at the top of
+`services/calibre.py` — the `0101-01-01` date sentinel, `|` for a comma in an author name, the
+REAL `series_index` that defaults to 1.0 for every book, HTML in `comments`, the views that need
+SQLite functions Calibre registers from Python, and `books_pages_link` being both recent and
+usually empty. `tests/calibre_fixtures.py` builds a library exercising all of them.

+Read a Calibre library.
+
+This knows about `metadata.db` and the tree beside it, and nothing about `Book`,
+`BookService` or a database session — it is a file-format reader, and it is testable
+without Postgres or an app. Interpretation belongs to whoever imports what it returns:
+identifiers come back exactly as Calibre wrote them, not folded onto Chitai's schemes.
+
+Things about Calibre that are load-bearing here:
+
+- **Never query the views.** `meta` and the `tag_browser_*` family call SQLite functions
+ Calibre registers from Python at connection time, so `SELECT * FROM meta` fails with
+ `no such function: sortconcat`. Only base tables are touched below.
+- **An unknown date is a sentinel, not a null** — `0101-01-01`, Calibre's
+ `UNDEFINED_DATE`. It parses fine as a date, so nothing complains; it just makes every
+ book without a publication date look like it was published in the year 101.
+- **`data.name` is not the title.** It is the on-disk stem, truncated to Calibre's
+ filename limit and sanitised, so the file is `The Project Gutenberg eBook #33283_
+ Calcul - Silvanus Phillips Thompson.pdf` for a book titled `The Project Gutenberg
+ eBook #33283: Calculus Made Easy, 2nd Edition`. Names locate files; the database
+ carries the metadata.
+- **`authors.name` escapes a comma as `|`**, which Calibre reverses on read
+ (`AuthorsTable.unserialize` in its `db/tables.py`).
+- **`series_index` defaults to 1.0 whether or not the book is in a series**, so a
+ position is only meaningful alongside a series.
+- **`books_pages_link` is recent and often empty.** It is treated as optional both ways:
+ the table may not exist, and where it does the rows are frequently `pages = 0` with
+ `needs_scan = 1`.
+
+Nothing walks the tree: every file is located through `books.path`, which is why
+`.caltrash` — where Calibre keeps deleted books, still on disk — cannot be picked up by

+# Implementation brief: importing a Calibre library
+
+Written for an agent picking this up cold. Read the repo-root `AGENTS.md` and
+`backend/AGENTS.md` first — this brief assumes both, particularly the **Filesystem behaviour**
+and **Duplicate detection** sections.
+
+Every claim about Calibre's schema and on-disk layout below was checked against a real library at
+`~/Documents/Calibre Library` (6 books, current Calibre). Where a fact came from Calibre's source
+rather than that library, it says so.
+
+## Feasibility: high, and most of the machinery already exists
+
+`metadata.db` is plain SQLite with a schema that has been stable for a decade, and the files sit
+beside it in a predictable tree. Chitai already has every piece an import needs:
+
+| Needed | Already in the tree |
+| --- | --- |
+| Ingest files that are already on disk | `BookService.create_many_from_existing_files` (`services/book.py:1280`) |
+| Deduplicate authors/tags/publishers/series | `_populate_with_unique_relationships` (`services/book.py:1752`), via `as_unique_async` |
+| Generic identifiers with a scheme map | `Identifier`, and `parse_identifier` (`services/metadata_extractor.py:58`) — whose map already covers `isbn`, `amazon`, `mobi-asin`, `google`, `goodreads`, `doi`, `calibre` |
+| Decide where a book lives on disk | `BookPathGenerator`, `_reserve_book_path` (`services/book.py:1066`) |
+| Not import the same book twice | `find_duplicate_files` (`:461`) and `find_duplicate_books` (`:535`) |
+| Store a cover | `_save_cover_image` (`:1994`) |
+
+So this is **a reader, not new ingest machinery**: turn Calibre rows into the metadata dict
+`BookService` already accepts, and hand it to a slightly generalised version of the consume-directory
+path. The parsing is the easy half.
+
+The hard parts are elsewhere, and all three are addressed below:
+
+1. Calibre libraries hold formats Chitai cannot describe, let alone read — and one of them
+ **currently 500s the book detail endpoint** (see prerequisites).
+2. A 5,000-book import is a long-running job, and the app has no job/progress concept.
+3. Whether files are **copied** into the library or **referenced in place** — which is a
+ product decision with a large blast radius, because in-place means Chitai's write paths point
+ at somebody's Calibre library.
+
+## What a Calibre library actually is
+
+```
+Calibre Library/
+├── metadata.db the whole catalogue
+├── metadata_db_prefs_backup.json ignore
+├── .caltrash/ .calnotes/ ignore — deleted books still live in .caltrash
+└── /
+ └── ()/ == books.path
+ ├── cover.jpg iff books.has_cover
+ ├── metadata.opf ignore; the db is authoritative
+ └── . one per row in `data`
+```
+
+The tables that matter, and nothing else: `books`, `authors` + `books_authors_link`,
+`publishers` + `books_publishers_link`, `tags` + `books_tags_link`, `series` +
+`books_series_link`, `languages` + `books_languages_link`, `comments`, `identifiers`, `data`,
+`books_pages_link`, `last_read_positions`.
+
+Ten things that will produce wrong data if you do not know them:
+
+- **Never query the views.** `meta`, `tag_browser_*` and friends call SQLite functions Calibre
+ registers from Python at connection time. Verified: `SELECT * FROM meta` fails with
+ `no such function: sortconcat`. Query base tables only.
+
+- **`pubdate` has a sentinel, not a null.** An unknown publication date is stored as
+ `0101-01-01 00:00:00+00:00` (Calibre's `UNDEFINED_DATE`, year 101). It parses fine as a
+ `date`, so nothing will complain — two of the six books in the reference library carry it. Drop
+ any `pubdate` with year < 1000. The same sentinel appears in `timestamp`.
+
+- **`data.name` is lossy and is not the title.** It is the on-disk stem, truncated to Calibre's
+ filename limit and sanitised. Verified in the reference library: the book titled
+ `The Project Gutenberg eBook #33283: Calculus Made Easy, 2nd Edition` is stored as
+ `The Project Gutenberg eBook #33283_ Calcul - Silvanus Phillips Thompson.pdf`. So the file
+ extractors must not be consulted for metadata (see decision 2), and `books.path`/`data.name`
+ are for *locating* files only.
+
+- **`books.title` may contain characters Calibre strips from its own paths** — `:` became `_`
+ above, and titles legitimately contain `/` (`AC/DC`). `BookPathGenerator` interpolates the
+ title straight into a path and only collapses repeated slashes
+ (`services/filesystem_library.py`), so an unsanitised Calibre title can silently add a
+ directory level. Sanitise `/` and control characters out of `title` before path generation.
+
+- **`authors.name` escapes commas as `|`.** Calibre's `AuthorsTable` unserialises with
+ `name.replace('|', ',')` (from Calibre's `db/tables.py`; the reference library has no such
+ name, so this one is unverified locally). Do the same replacement, and pass `authors.name` —
+ **not** `authors.sort`, which is `Melville, Herman`. `format_author_name` would flip the sort
+ form correctly anyway, but there is no reason to hand it the worse input.
+
+- **`series_index` is a REAL.** `7.0` must become `"7"`, not `"7.0"` — `Book.series_position` is
+ a string, and `find_duplicate_books`'s series-position disqualifier compares it as one.
+
+- **`languages.lang_code` is ISO 639-2/B** (`eng`), while `EpubExtractor` stores raw
+ `DC:language` (`en`). Both will coexist in the column. `Book.language` is free text and the
+ edit form is a plain ``, so nothing breaks; normalising to two letters is optional
+ polish, not part of this work.
+
+- **`comments.text` is HTML.** `Book.description` is rendered as plain text by
+ `CollapsibleText`, so `
` tags will show literally. Strip to text on import.
+
+- **`books_pages_link` is usually empty of real data.** It carries `needs_scan` and, in the
+ reference library, `pages = 0` for all six books. Only use it when `pages > 0`.
+
+- **`identifiers.type` is free text.** The reference library holds `isbn`, `amazon` and
+ `mobi-asin`, all of which `parse_identifier` already maps. Feed every identifier through it and
+ keep whatever survives; do not filter to a known list.
+
+## Decisions to settle before writing code
+
+1. **Copy files into the library. Do not move, do not reference in place** — for the first
+ version. Moving leaves `metadata.db` pointing at files that are gone, which quietly destroys a
+ library the user still uses. Referencing in place is genuinely desirable (nobody wants two
+ copies of 80 GB) but it points `book.path` at the Calibre tree, and `update_book` **moves
+ directories** while `delete_books` **deletes files** — so a metadata edit in Chitai would
+ rearrange somebody's Calibre library. `Library.read_only` exists but is enforced in exactly one
+ place (`services/library.py:54`, at creation). See phase 3.
+
+2. **Trust Calibre's metadata; do not run the extractors.** Calibre's catalogue is curated, its
+ filenames are truncated garbage, and running `Extractor.extract_metadata` over thousands of
+ files means opening every EPUB and rendering a cover page from every PDF. Take the cover from
+ `cover.jpg` directly. The one exception worth allowing: fill `pages` from the file when
+ Calibre has no useful value, behind a flag, off by default.
+
+3. ~~**The source is a server-side path, not an upload.**~~ **Reversed in review, and the reason
+ this brief was wrong is worth keeping.** The premise — "the library lives on the same host as
+ the backend in every realistic deployment" — is false for the common case: Calibre is a desktop
+ application, and its library is on the desktop. So the split is by *surface*, not by preference:
+
+ - **Over HTTP: an uploaded zip only.** `…/imports/calibre/upload`. There is no endpoint taking a
+ server path; one was built and then removed deliberately.
+ - **On the server: a path only.** `litestar calibre-import `, which is where a very large
+ library or a headless migration belongs — an upload has to carry the whole archive across
+ first.
+
+ A CLI taking a path needs no justification. An *endpoint* taking one would have: it would let any
+ authenticated caller read any directory the backend can, and `TODO.md` records there is no
+ authorization tier at all. Not adding it is one less thing to gate later.
+
+4. **Import into an existing Chitai library**, chosen by the caller. Creating a library is
+ already one action, and the Calibre tree is rewritten by `BookPathGenerator` regardless.
+
+5. **Re-running an import must be safe, and file-level dedupe already makes it so.** The same
+ bytes are recognised by `(hash, size)` whatever their path, so a second run over the same
+ library skips everything. No import bookkeeping is needed for idempotency.
+
+## Prerequisite: a `.mobi` file breaks the book endpoint — **done**
+
+> Landed ahead of the import itself. `guess_content_type` in `services/utils.py` now names every
+> format from its extension, the column keeps a null when nothing can name one, and the OPDS feed
+> substitutes `application/octet-stream` at the one place a string is required. The Read control is
+> driven by `isReadable` rather than by the file count. See the section below for why it mattered,
+> and `backend/AGENTS.md` for the rule as it now stands.
+
+
+`FileMetadataRead.content_type` is a required `str` (`schemas/book.py:33`), but every ingest path
+fills it from `mimetypes.guess_type`, which returns `None` for `.mobi`, `.azw`, `.fb2`, `.lit`
+and `.htmlz` (verified). `FileMetadata.content_type` is nullable in the model, so the row stores
+fine and then fails response validation on the way out — a book whose only file is a MOBI would
+be unreadable through the API.
+
+Nothing in the tree hits this today because the browser upload path is used with EPUBs and PDFs.
+A Calibre library is full of MOBI and AZW3. Fix it first, either way round:
+
+- make the schema field `str | None`, and/or
+- add a small extension→MIME table for the ebook formats `mimetypes` does not know
+ (`application/x-mobipocket-ebook`, `application/vnd.amazon.ebook`, `application/x-fictionbook+xml`).
+
+Do both, in fact: the table is the right answer for OPDS clients, which choose an acquisition link
+by MIME type, and the nullable field is the safety net.
+
+**Related, but not a blocker:** Chitai reads EPUB and PDF only. `openBookInReader`
+(`book/[bookId]/+page.svelte:66`) branches on `getFileType(...) === 'EPUB' | 'PDF'` and does
+nothing for anything else, so an AZW3-only book gets a Read button that silently fails. Importing
+those files is still right — they are downloadable and they are the user's — but the button
+should be disabled for a book with no readable file. One `$derived` on the page, worth doing in
+the same branch.
+
+## Design
+
+### 1. `services/calibre.py` — a pure reader, no Chitai types
+
+```python
+@dataclass(frozen=True)
+class CalibreFile:
+ path: Path # absolute, resolved against the library root
+ format: str # "EPUB", as stored
+ size: int # data.uncompressed_size, for a cheap sanity check
+
+@dataclass(frozen=True)
+class CalibreBook:
+ calibre_id: int
+ uuid: str
+ title: str
+ authors: list[str]
+ ... # one field per row of the mapping table below
+ cover: Path | None
+ files: list[CalibreFile]
+
+class CalibreLibrary:
+ def __init__(self, root: Path) -> None: ...
+ async def open(self) -> None: ... # copy + connect, see below
+ async def books(self) -> AsyncIterator[CalibreBook]: ...
+ async def close(self) -> None: ...
+```
+
+Deliberately knows nothing about `Book`, `BookService` or the session — it is a file-format
+reader, unit-testable against a fixture database with no Postgres and no app.
+
+Two implementation notes:
+
+- **Copy `metadata.db` to a temp file and read the copy.** Calibre may be running and writing;
+ opening the live file read-only either sees a torn state or needs the `-wal` sidecar. The
+ database is small (438 KB for six books, single-digit MB for thousands), so a copy costs
+ nothing and removes the whole problem.
+- **`sqlite3` inside `asyncio.to_thread`, not a new dependency.** The connection is used for a
+ handful of queries. Do not add `aiosqlite` for this.
+
+Read the whole catalogue in **one query per table** and join in Python — six or so `SELECT`s and
+a few dicts, versus a per-book N+1 across ten tables. At self-hosted scale the entire catalogue
+minus descriptions fits in memory comfortably; if `comments.text` for 20k books is a concern,
+fetch that one table per batch.
+
+### 2. The mapping
+
+| Calibre | Chitai | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `books.title` | `title` | Sanitise `/` and control chars for path generation. `Extractor.format_book_title` may still be worth applying to split a subtitle at the second colon — but **do not** run `split_edition`, Calibre's title is the curated one. |
+| `authors.name` via `books_authors_link` | `authors` | `\|` → `,`. Order by `books_authors_link.id`; `Book.author_links` is an `ordering_list`, so insertion order is the displayed order. |
+| `comments.text` | `description` | Strip HTML to text. |
+| `books.pubdate` | `published_date` | Drop the year-101 sentinel. |
+| `series.name`, `books.series_index` | `series`, `series_position` | `7.0` → `"7"`. |
+| `tags.name` | `tags` | |
+| `publishers.name` | `publisher` | `books_publishers_link` is unique per book. |
+| `languages.lang_code` (lowest `item_order`) | `language` | Chitai holds one. |
+| `identifiers.type` / `.val` | `identifiers` | Through `parse_identifier`; keep what survives. |
+| `books.uuid` | `identifiers["calibre-uuid"]` | The one durable link back to the source row. `normalize_identifier` returns a key for it (it is not in `_PER_BUILD_NAMES`), which is *desirable*: a book re-imported from the same Calibre library matches on it exactly. |
+| `books_pages_link.pages` | `pages` | Only when `> 0`. |
+| `cover.jpg` when `has_cover` | `cover_image` | |
+| `data` rows | `files` | |
+| `books.timestamp` | — | `Book.created_at` is audit-managed; do not fight it. |
+| `ratings`, `annotations`, `custom_columns` | — | No home in the model. Out of scope. |
+| `last_read_positions` | `BookProgress` | Phase 2. |
+
+### 3. The ingest
+
+> **As built, this went on `BookService` as `create_many_from_calibre`, not into a separate
+> `services/calibre_import.py`.** The orchestration needs `_reserve_book_path`,
+> `_save_cover_image`, `_screen_for_duplicates` and `_record_possible_duplicates`, and reaching
+> into four privates from another module is worse than one more method in the file where the other
+> two ingest paths already live. `_record_possible_duplicates` was changed to take the list it
+> appends to rather than an `ImportResult`, so every ingest path can share it whatever its own
+> result type is. Two other deviations: `CalibreLibrary.books()` returns a list rather than an
+> async iterator, because the caller needs the total up front anyway; and the reader reports
+> identifiers exactly as Calibre keyed them, with the fold onto Chitai's schemes done by the
+> importer, which keeps the reader free of Chitai imports.
+
+Per book, in this order — it mirrors `create_many_from_existing_files`, which is the closest
+existing shape:
+
+1. `fingerprint_file` each source file (`services/utils.py:164`).
+2. `find_duplicate_files` against the target library. All files known → skip the book entirely,
+ recording it. Some known → import the rest.
+3. Build the metadata dict from the `CalibreBook`.
+4. `_reserve_book_path(path_gen.generate_path(data))`.
+5. **Copy** each file to `parent / _unused_path(...)`, building `FileMetadata` from the
+ fingerprint already computed. `services/utils.py` has `move_file` but no copy — add
+ `copy_file` beside it, streaming through `aiofiles` in `CHUNK_SIZE` blocks like
+ `_save_book_files` does, not `shutil.copy` (a 40 MB blocking read inside the event loop).
+6. Cover: open `cover.jpg` with PIL and hand the `Image` to `_save_cover_image`, which already
+ accepts one and converts to WebP.
+7. `super().create(data)` through `BookService`, then `find_duplicate_books` and record
+ candidates — same as `_record_possible_duplicates` (`services/book.py:1253`).
+8. **Commit per book.** A 5,000-book import inside one transaction is one failure away from
+ nothing, and per-book commits are what lets the library page show books arriving — which is
+ the behaviour commit `85367da` deliberately built.
+
+Report an `ImportResult`-shaped outcome; reuse `ImportResult` itself if it fits, extending it with
+a `failures: list[tuple[int, str]]` keyed by Calibre id. **One book must never fail the run** —
+a missing file, an unreadable cover or a `NOT NULL` violation gets recorded and skipped.
+
+### 4. Progress, and where the import runs
+
+> **As built, the HTTP surface is an uploaded archive and nothing else** — see decision 3.
+>
+> `POST …/imports/calibre/upload` takes a zipped library. The job owns the temp directory it is
+> unpacked into and deletes it when it ends. Extraction refuses zip slip, an archive too big for the
+> disk, and one with no `metadata.db` within three levels — all answered 400 before a job exists.
+>
+> This forced a fix to the SvelteKit proxy, which buffered request bodies with `arrayBuffer()`:
+> survivable for one book, not for a multi-gigabyte archive. POST and PATCH now stream
+> `request.body` through with `duplex: 'half'`.
+>
+> **A preview endpoint was built and then removed with the path route.** It read a server-side
+> catalogue and reported its size before writing anything, which is only useful when the caller
+> named a directory. An upload has already been carried across by the time anything can be read, so
+> unpacking it *is* the validation step — an archive that is not a Calibre library is refused there.
+
+The import outlives its request, so the handler starts it and returns a handle:
+
+- `POST /libraries/{library_id:int}/imports/calibre` — body `{path, copy_files: true}`, returns
+ `{job_id, total}`. 202.
+- `GET /libraries/imports/{job_id}` — `{state, total, processed, created, skipped, failed,
+ current_title, errors}`.
+- `DELETE /libraries/imports/{job_id}` — cancel; the task checks a flag between books.
+
+Keep the registry **in memory**, a `dict[str, ImportJob]` on a module-level singleton, with the
+task created by `asyncio.create_task`. This matches what the app already does — the consume
+watcher is an in-process singleton started from a lifespan hook — and it is roughly thirty lines
+against a model, a migration and a service for the alternative.
+
+State that limitation explicitly in the docstring: **it assumes one worker process.** The
+production `CMD` is `litestar run`, which is single-process, so this holds today; `TODO.md`
+already records that the production image should move to uvicorn with a worker count, and doing
+that would mean a poll landing on a worker that has never heard of the job. The consume watcher
+has the same problem, so this is not a new constraint — but the next person to add workers needs
+to find it written down. If import *history* is ever wanted, that is when an `import_jobs` table
+earns its migration.
+
+**Also add a CLI entry point.** A 200 GB library imported through a browser tab that must stay
+open is a bad experience, and `pyproject.toml` already declares a `chitai` script. A Litestar CLI
+command (`litestar --app-dir src/chitai/ calibre-import --library `) is ~20 lines
+over the same service and is the right tool for the initial migration, which is the case this
+whole feature exists for. The endpoint is for people who would rather click.
+
+### 5. Frontend
+
+Model it on the duplicates screen, which is the closest precedent in shape and placement:
+
+- Route `(root)/settings/libraries/[libraryId]/import` — beside
+ `settings/libraries/[libraryId]/duplicates`, reached from the library settings page.
+- `getCalibreImport` (a `query`) and `cancelCalibreImport` (a `command`) in
+ `src/lib/api/calibre-import.remote.ts`, re-exported from `src/lib/api/index.ts`. **Starting an
+ import is not a remote function**: the archive goes to the backend through the proxy so the
+ browser streams straight through, where a remote function would put the whole thing through the
+ SvelteKit process first. The screen uses `XMLHttpRequest` for it, which is the only way to get
+ upload progress.
+- A file input, an upload progress bar, then a progress bar polling `getCalibreImport` every second
+ or two, a running count, and the failures listed at the end with their Calibre ids.
+- Finish with a link to the library's duplicates screen. An import into a non-empty library is
+ the single most likely way to produce duplicate books, and that screen already handles them.
+
+Do **not** route this through the upload tray. The tray reports on a client-driven queue it owns
+(`upload-queue.svelte.ts`); this is server-side work whose state survives a page reload, and
+conflating the two would mean teaching the tray to poll.
+
+Regenerate `src/lib/schema/openapi/schema.d.ts` against a backend running **your** branch —
+a stale server silently writes a stale file.
+
+## Testing
+
+The fixture is the interesting part. Build a Calibre library in a `tmp_path` fixture rather than
+committing a binary `metadata.db`: a helper that executes the subset of Calibre's `CREATE TABLE`
+statements (they are in this document's shape, and in any real library's `sqlite_master`), inserts
+a handful of books, and lays out `/ (id)/` directories containing the existing
+EPUB and PDF fixtures from `backend/tests/data_files/` plus a copy of `cover.jpg`. Generated
+beats committed here because the tests need to assert on *odd* rows — the pubdate sentinel, a
+`|` in an author name, a title with a colon — and those are clearer written in Python than hidden
+in a blob.
+
+- **Unit** (`tests/unit/test_calibre.py`) — the reader alone: field mapping; the year-101 pubdate
+ dropped; `series_index` 7.0 → `"7"`; `|` unescaped in an author name; HTML stripped from
+ `comments`; `pages = 0` ignored; identifiers passed through `parse_identifier`; a `data` row
+ whose file is missing from disk reported rather than raised; `.caltrash` never walked.
+- **Service** (`tests/unit/test_services/test_calibre_import.py`) — a book with two formats lands
+ as one record with two files; the source files still exist afterwards; a second run over the
+ same library creates nothing; a library with one broken book imports the rest; authors and tags
+ shared between two books produce one `Author` / `Tag` row each; `possible_duplicates` reported
+ when the target library already holds the same book.
+- **Integration** (`tests/integration/test_calibre_import.py`) — `POST` returns 202 with a job id,
+ polling reaches a terminal state, and the books are then listable through `GET /books`. A
+ `.mobi`-only book must come back from `GET /books/{id}` without a 500 — that is the
+ prerequisite's regression test.
+
+`pytest` needs Docker (`pytest-databases`).
+
+## Verification
+
+```bash
+nix-shell # postgres + migrations applied
+cd backend
+pytest tests/ # take your own baseline first
+uv run litestar --app-dir src/chitai/ run --port 8001 # for the OpenAPI regeneration
+cd ../frontend && pnpm check # baseline: 30 errors, 1 warning, 8 files
+```
+
+Neither `pnpm check` nor `pnpm lint` is clean on this repo — baseline before assuming an error is
+yours.
+
+End to end, against a real library (`~/Documents/Calibre Library` will do): import into an empty
+Chitai library and confirm the six books arrive with their covers, authors, tags, series
+positions and identifiers intact; that the AZW3 book is listed and downloadable; that the source
+library is byte-for-byte untouched (`diff -r` a copy taken beforehand); and that re-running the
+import creates nothing and reports six skipped books. Then import the same library into a
+library that already holds one of those books by upload, and confirm it lands on the duplicates
+screen rather than as a second copy.
+
+## Phasing
+
+| Phase | Scope |
+| --- | --- |
+| **0** ✅ | The `content_type` prerequisite, plus the Read button. **Done** — see below. |
+| **1** ✅ | `services/calibre.py`, the ingest, the CLI command, copy-only. **Done** — a headless one-time migration works today. |
+| **2** ◐ | The upload endpoint, the job registry and the settings screen — **done**. The HTTP surface is an uploaded zip only; see decision 3, which this reversed. `last_read_positions` → `BookProgress` is **not** done: it needs a Calibre-user → Chitai-user mapping, and the answer differs between the endpoint (which has a `current_user`) and the CLI (which has none). That decision is the next thing to make. |
+| **3** | Reference-in-place import. Its real content is **enforcing `Library.read_only`** across `update_book`, `delete_books`, `add_files` and `remove_files` — which is a feature of its own and should not be smuggled in under an import. |
+
+## Out of scope
+
+Annotations and highlights (no model to put them in), custom columns, ratings, virtual libraries
+and saved searches → bookshelves, format conversion, writing anything back to Calibre, and any
+form of continuing two-way sync. This is a one-way migration.
