mAi 40e49e87d4 refactor(t-paliad-200): Slice 9 follow-up B — retire litigation category from rule corpus
Lorenz's Slice 9 (t-paliad-195) deferred mig 093 because 40 active
paliad.deadline_rules still pointed at the 7 litigation-category
proceeding_types (INF, REV, CCR, APM, APP, AMD, ZPO_CIVIL). Phase 3
Slice 5 (mig 087/088) already retired the category from project-binding;
this migration retires it from the rule corpus.

PLAN CHOICE (audit-gated, paliadin-approved): archive-all-40 rather than
the original re-parent plan. The audit found that 23 of 40 Pipeline-A
rules share their `code` with an existing fristenrechner rule on the
proposed re-parent target (e.g. inf.oral exists on both INF and
UPC_INF). Re-parenting would leave two rules with identical
(proceeding_type_id, code), breaking the implicit per-proceeding
rule_code identity contract keyed off by projection / search /
rule_editor. The fristenrechner rules are clearly the production
version (proper German names, legal_source pinned to UPC.RoP citations,
full bilateral chains, intra-proceeding counterclaim handling); the
Pipeline-A rules are stubs (English-only, mostly NULL legal_source,
duration_value=0 for 28 of 40, no spawn_proceeding_type_id wiring).

Migration 093 sequence (atomic):
  1. Snapshot proceeding_types_pre_093 + deadline_rules_pre_093 as
     permanent audit anchors.
  2. INSERT _archived_litigation pt (category='archived',
     is_active=false, jurisdiction='UPC') to home the rules.
  3. UPDATE all 40 rules → archive pt + lifecycle_state='archived' +
     is_active=false. Captured in paliad.deadline_rule_audit via the
     mig 079 trigger.
  4. DELETE the 7 litigation rows from paliad.proceeding_types (now
     safe — nothing references them).
  5. Hard assertions: 0 litigation rows survive, exactly 40 rules on
     the archive pt, every snapshot row matches a surviving rule by id.

Critical FK note: deadline_rules.proceeding_type_id is ON DELETE CASCADE
→ proceeding_types(id). A naive DELETE of the 7 litigation rows would
cascade-delete all 40 rules and break the FK from the 1 live deadline
("Lecker Frist", completed) that still references inf.rejoin/INF.
Re-homing the rules before deleting the pt rows is mandatory.

Verified via BEGIN..ROLLBACK against live DB: assertions pass, all 30
intra-litigation parent_id chains preserved, the live deadline FK
stays valid.

Test impact:
  internal/services/project_service_test.go:72 used to look up
  category='litigation' AND code='INF' to exercise the Slice 5 negative
  case. Post-mig-093 that lookup returns NULL. Rewritten to fetch any
  category <> 'fristenrechner' row (the _archived_litigation pt is the
  canonical post-093 row); defence-in-depth coverage of both the Go
  service guard and the mig 088 SQL trigger is preserved.

SURFACED FOR LEGAL REVIEW (4 coverage questions the audit found, to be
triaged as follow-up tasks):

  1. inf.prelim (Preliminary Objection, RoP 19, 1 month) — not present
     on UPC_INF. Possible coverage gap; legal review to decide whether
     to add it to the fristenrechner ruleset.
  2. inf.appeal / rev.appeal / ccr.appeal as cross-proceeding spawns
     into UPC_APP (2 months, UPC.RoP.220.1) — fristenrechner UPC_APP
     currently starts standalone with no spawn from UPC_INF/UPC_REV.
     Possible UX gap; Pipeline-A versions had
     spawn_proceeding_type_id=NULL so they weren't functional spawns
     either.
  3. ccr.amend / rev.amend (spawn rules) — superseded by
     inf.app_to_amend / rev.app_to_amend on UPC_INF / UPC_REV. Safe to
     drop; no action needed.
  4. zpo.klage / zpo.vertanz / zpo.klageerw / zpo.berufung — no UPC
     analogue; redundant with the DE_INF / DE_INF_OLG / DE_INF_BGH and
     DE_NULL / DE_NULL_BGH chains. Safe to drop; no action needed.

paliad

Paliad — all-in-one patent practice platform for HLC (formerly Hogan Lovells). Knowledge tools and Aktenverwaltung behind one sidebar.

  • Aktenverwaltung: Akten (matters), Fristen (deadlines), Termine (appointments) with CalDAV sync, Parteien, Dashboard. Office-scoped visibility with explicit collaborators.
  • Knowledge tools: Prozesskostenrechner (DE / UPC / EPA), Fristenrechner, Gebührentabellen, Patentglossar, Gerichtsverzeichnis, Checklisten, Link Hub, Downloads.

Domain: paliad.de (legacy: patholo.de, patholo.msbls.de). Repo: m/paliad on mgit.msbls.de.

Stack

  • Frontend: Bun + custom JSX/TSX renderer (no React), per-page client TS bundles, HTML-first forms
  • Backend: Go (net/http), sqlx for DB access
  • Migrations: golang-migrate/migrate/v4 with SQL files embedded via embed.FS; applied at server startup before the HTTP listener binds
  • Database: youpc Supabase Postgres, paliad schema. Office-scoped RLS (paliad.can_see_akte(akte_id)) — see docs/design-kanzlai-integration.md §2
  • Auth: Supabase password (cookie session, @hoganlovells.com / @hlc.* email gate)
  • CalDAV: hand-rolled iCal + minimal WebDAV client in internal/services/caldav_*.go; AES-GCM at rest for stored passwords
  • Hosting: Dokploy compose Zx147ycurfYagKRl_Zzyo on mlake

Database migrations

Migrations live in internal/db/migrations/ as NNN_description.up.sql + .down.sql pairs. They are embedded into the Go binary via embed.FS and applied automatically at server startup (before the HTTP listener binds) when DATABASE_URL is set.

The migration tracker is paliad.paliad_schema_migrations (not the default public.schema_migrations). This avoids a collision with other apps on the shared youpc Supabase instance — see the memory episode "paliad migration bootstrap collision with shared Postgres" for the incident that drove the change.

Current migrations (as of April 2026):

001_paliad_schema        schema + extensions
002_users                paliad.users (office, role, practice_group)
003_reference_tables     proceeding_types, deadline_rules, holidays
004_akten                paliad.akten with visibility columns
005_akten_children       parteien, fristen, termine, dokumente, akten_events, notizen
006_visibility           paliad.can_see_akte() function
007_rls_policies         RLS on every paliad table
008_seed_proceeding_types
009_seed_deadline_rules  32 UPC + 4 ZPO rules
010_seed_holidays        DE federal + UPC judicial vacations
011_feedback_tables      link_suggestions, checklisten_feedback, gerichte_feedback
012_fristenrechner_rules DB-backed rule set for /tools/fristenrechner
013_user_caldav_config   per-user CalDAV (encrypted) + sync log
014_checklist_instances  persisted checklist instances linkable to Akten

Add a new migration:

internal/db/migrations/015_<description>.up.sql
internal/db/migrations/015_<description>.down.sql

The down file is required and must reverse the up cleanly (verified by adding a one-off down test before merge).

To run migrations against a local Postgres:

docker run -d --name paliad-pg -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=test -p 5432:5432 postgres:16-alpine
# bootstrap a mock auth schema (auth.users + auth.uid()) — required because
# the migrations reference Supabase-provided objects:
psql postgres://postgres:test@localhost:5432/postgres -f internal/db/devtools/mock_supabase_auth.sql
DATABASE_URL='postgres://postgres:test@localhost:5432/postgres?sslmode=disable' \
SUPABASE_URL=stub SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=stub \
go run ./cmd/server

Environment

Variable Required Purpose
PORT no (default 8080) HTTP listen port
SUPABASE_URL yes Supabase project URL (auth)
SUPABASE_ANON_KEY yes Supabase anon key (auth)
DATABASE_URL for Aktenverwaltung Direct Postgres conn for migrations + Akten/Fristen/Termine services. Knowledge-platform endpoints (Kostenrechner, Glossar, Links, Gebührentabellen, Checklisten, Gerichte, Downloads) don't use the pool and work without it. Aktenverwaltung endpoints return 503 if unset.
CALDAV_ENCRYPTION_KEY for CalDAV sync 32-byte AES-256 key, base64-encoded. Encrypts CalDAV passwords at rest (AES-GCM). Server fails fast on malformed key; if unset, CalDAV is silently disabled (/api/caldav-config returns 501). Generate with openssl rand -base64 32.
GITEA_TOKEN optional Gitea API token for the private file proxy (Downloads)
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY not used today Reserved for Phase H (AI Frist-Extraktion). Currently deferred — do not set.

Development

make build       # compile backend + frontend
make test        # run Go tests + frontend tests
go build ./...   # backend only
go vet ./...     # static checks
go test ./...    # Go tests
bun run build    # frontend only (produces frontend/dist/)

Project layout:

cmd/server/           # main entry point
internal/db/          # sqlx pool + embedded migrations
internal/services/    # AkteService, FristService, TerminService, CalDAV, ...
internal/handlers/    # HTTP handlers (pages + API)
internal/calc/        # Kostenrechner / Fristenrechner logic
frontend/             # Bun + TSX source; static HTML output to frontend/dist/
docs/                 # design docs + this roadmap

Deploy

Push to main → Gitea webhook → Dokploy auto-deploy on mlake.

Project status (April 2026)

Phases AG, I and J of the KanzlAI integration are shipped: schema, services, Akten, Fristen, Termine + CalDAV, Dashboard, Notizen service + UI (commit 5a9f8e5, 2026-04-17), and instanceable Checklisten (migration 014). Phase H (AI Frist extraction) is deferred pending a reversal of the "no Anthropic API" decision; the Dokumente tab on Akten detail is hidden until that lands. KanzlAI infra retirement (Dokploy shutdown, kanzlai schema drop, Gitea archive) is still pending.

See docs/feature-roadmap.md for the full backlog and docs/design-kanzlai-integration.md for the integration design.
