+## 11. Resource C — crm-worker (Background Worker)
+
+The crm-worker runs the ARQ background worker and scheduler in a separate
+container, using the same Docker image as crm-app but with a different
+entrypoint (`/app/worker.sh` instead of `/app/prestart.sh`).
+
+### Setup in Coolify UI
+
+1. In the same project/environment as crm-app, **+ Add → Application →
+   Public/Private Repository**.
+2. Fill in:
+   - **Git repository**: same as crm-app (`https://forgejo.media-on.de/Leopoldadmin/leocrm.git`)
+   - **Branch**: `main`
+   - **Build pack**: `Dockerfile`
+   - **Dockerfile location**: `Dockerfile` (same image)
+   - **Port**: `8000` (not used, but Coolify requires a port)
+   - **Custom Entrypoint**: `/app/worker.sh`
+3. Click **Deploy** once to create the resource.
+4. Note the **Application UUID**.
+
+### Environment variables (on the crm-worker resource)
+
+Set the same variables as crm-app, except:
+
+| Key | Value | Notes |
+|-----|-------|-------|
+| `DATABASE_URL` | same as crm-app | |
+| `REDIS_URL` | same as crm-app | |
+| `SECRET_KEY` | same as crm-app | |
+| `ENVIRONMENT` | `production` | |
+| `LOG_LEVEL` | `INFO` | |
+| `STORAGE_PATH` | `/data/storage` | |
+
+No domain is needed — the worker is not publicly accessible.
+
+### Healthcheck (Coolify side)
+
+- **Healthcheck path**: `/api/v1/health` (not used by worker, but Coolify requires one)
+- Alternatively, use a custom healthcheck command:
+  `pgrep -f "arq app.core.worker.WorkerSettings" || exit 1`
+
+### Scaling
+
+To scale the worker horizontally, deploy multiple crm-worker instances.
+Cron jobs use a Redis-based distributed lock (`SET NX` with TTL) so only
+one replica executes each scheduled job.

+## P0 — Sofort blockierend (vor jeder Nutzung)
+
+### P0-1: Authentifizierungs-Bypass entfernen
+
+**Problem:** `app/deps.py` akzeptiert `X-Internal-Call: true` mit `X-Tenant-Id` und `X-User-Id` Headern. Keine Signatur, kein Token, keine IP-Beschränkung. `except (ValueError, Exception): pass` verschleiert Fehler.
+
+**Datei:** `app/deps.py:37-58`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+- Header-Authentifizierung komplett entfernen
+- Für interne Service-Kommunikation: dedizierte Service-Accounts mit kurzlebigen signierten Tokens (JWT mit `aud`, `iss`, `sub`, `tenant_id`, `exp`)
+- Separate interne API oder mTLS
+- Keine Übernahme beliebiger `user_id` aus einem Header
+- Audit-Logging jeder Delegation
+- `except (ValueError, Exception): pass` ersetzen durch spezifisches Exception-Handling mit Logging
+
+**Aufwand:** 2-4 Stunden
+
+---
+
+### P0-2: Destruktive Migrationen ersetzen
+
+**Problem:**
+- `alembic/versions/0021_unified_contacts.py`: `DROP TABLE` ohne Datenübernahme
+- `alembic/versions/0027_unify_company_to_contact.py`: `company_id` wird gelöscht ohne Datenübernahme; Downgrade ändert pauschal alle `entity_type='contact'` zurück zu `'company'`
+- `migration_0021.sql` im Projekt-Root: konkurrierender Migrationsweg, manipuliert `alembic_version` direkt
+
+**Dateien:**
+- `alembic/versions/0021_unified_contacts.py`
+- `alembic/versions/0027_unify_company_to_contact.py`
+- `migration_0021.sql` (löschen)
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. `migration_0021.sql` löschen
+2. Migration 0021 durch echte Transformationsmigration ersetzen:
+   - Alte Tabellen umbenennen (`_old` suffix), nicht löschen
+   - Daten mit `INSERT ... SELECT` übertragen
+   - Anzahl, Checksummen und Plausibilität vor/nach der Migration vergleichen
+   - Alttabellen erst in späterer Migration entfernen
+3. Migration 0027 korrigieren:
+   - `company_id` Werte vor Drop in `contact_id` übertragen
+   - Downgrade: nur Datensätze zurückändern, die ursprünglich `'company'` waren (Tracking-Spalte oder separate Tabelle)
+4. Automatisierten Upgrade-Test von jeder unterstützten Version auf `head` einführen
+5. Migrationen gegen reale anonymisierte DB-Kopien testen
+
+**Aufwand:** 4-8 Stunden
+
+---
+
+### P0-3: Plugin-Upload und URL-Installation deaktivieren
+
+**Problem:** `app/routes/plugins.py` führt `spec.loader.exec_module(module)` aus **bevor** die Sicherheitsprüfung läuft. Das ist Remote Code Execution. Weitere Probleme: unzureichende ZIP-Traversal-Prüfung, kein Symlink-Check, keine ZIP-Bomb-Prävention, SSRF bei URL-Installation, Plugin wird in laufenden Container kopiert.
+
+**Datei:** `app/routes/plugins.py:347-354` (`_extract_plugin_from_zip`)
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. **Sofort:** Upload- und URL-Installationsendpunkte (`/upload`, `/install-url`) deaktivieren oder entfernen
+2. **Langfristig — Vertrauensmodell:**
+   - Nur signierte Plugin-Artefakte aus einer Allowlist
+   - Plugin-Code wird vor der Ausführung auf Signatur geprüft
+3. **Langfristig — Isolationsmodell:**
+   - Plugin-Ausführung in separaten Containern mit minimalen Rechten
+   - Versionierte Plugin-API
+4. ZIP-Traversal-Prüfung korrigieren: `os.path.abspath` gegen Base-Dir prüfen nach Extraction
+5. Symlink-Check hinzufügen
+6. Entpackungsgrößen-Limit (Anzahl Dateien + Gesamtgröße)
+7. URL-Download: Redirects verbieten, interne IP-Ranges blockieren, Streaming statt RAM
+
+**Aufwand:** Sofort-Deaktivierung 30 Min; Langfristig 2-3 Tage
+
+---
+
+### P0-4: Mandantentrennung (RLS) reparieren
+
+**Problem:**
+- `alembic/versions/0015_rls_policies.py`: Kein `FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITY`, kein `WITH CHECK`
+- Tabellen-Owner umgeht RLS
+- Plugin-Tabellen nicht in RLS-Liste
+- `TenantMixin` Docstring behauptet ORM-Autofilterung, die nicht existiert
+- `app/core/tenant.py` hat nur manuelle `apply_tenant_filter()` Funktion
+- `contactpersons` hat `tenant_id` aber FK auf `contacts.id` ohne Tenant-Bedingung → Cross-Tenant-FK möglich
+
+**Dateien:**
+- `alembic/versions/0015_rls_policies.py`
+- `app/core/db/__init__.py` (TenantMixin Docstring)
+- `app/core/tenant.py`
+- Neue Migration für FORCE + WITH CHECK
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Neue Migration: `ALTER TABLE ... FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITY` für alle Tenant-Tabellen
+2. Policies mit `USING` und `WITH CHECK` neu erstellen
+3. Separater DB-Migrationsowner; Runtime-User ohne Owner- oder Bypass-RLS-Rechte
+4. RLS für alle mandantenbezogenen Tabellen, einschließlich Plugin-Tabellen
+5. CI-Test: Cross-Tenant-Lese- und Schreibversuche
+6. Composite-Integrität: eindeutiges `(tenant_id, id)` und FK auf `(tenant_id, contact_id)`
+7. `TenantMixin` Docstring korrigieren: Autofilterung existiert nicht
+8. Zentralen Query-/Repository-Mechanismus einführen statt freiwilliger Tenant-Filter
+9. Später neu erstellte Tabellen automatisch erfassen (Event-Listener oder CI-Check)
+
+**Aufwand:** 1-2 Tage
+
+---
+
+### P0-5: Plugin-System Doppelregistrierung beheben
+
+**Problem:**
+- `app/main.py` `create_app()` registriert alle Plugin-Routen unabhängig vom Aktivierungsstatus
+- `lifespan()` registriert dieselben Routen nochmal → Doppelregistrierung
+- `lifespan()` auto-installiert und auto-aktiviert alle Builtins bei jedem Start
+- Deaktivierte Plugins werden reaktiviert
+- `registry._plugins` wird direkt zugegriffen (private Feld)
+- Migrationsfehler werden nur geloggt, Aktivierung wird trotzdem versucht
+- 204 direkte Cross-Imports zwischen Built-in-Plugins
+
+**Datei:** `app/main.py:317-330` und `app/main.py:112-165`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Routen **einmalig** beim Prozessstart registrieren — entweder in `create_app()` ODER in `lifespan()`, nicht beides
+2. Aktivierungsstatus vor dem Router-Aufbau laden und respektieren
+3. Keine dynamische Änderung von FastAPI-Routen während des Betriebs
+4. Aktivierung/Deaktivierung erfordert kontrollierten Neustart
+5. Fehlgeschlagene Migration blockiert den Start (nicht nur loggen)
+6. Core-Module und optionale Module klar trennen
+7. Kein Zugriff auf `registry._plugins` — öffentliche API verwenden
+8. Plugin-Abhängigkeiten über deklarierte Contracts prüfen
+9. **Langfristig:** Cross-Imports reduzieren — öffentliche Schnittstellen statt direkter Modell-Imports
+
+**Aufwand:** 1 Tag für Doppelregistrierung; Cross-Import-Reduktion 1-2 Wochen
+
+---
+
+### P0-6: Persistent Volume für Coolify-Deployment
+
+**Problem:** Der laufende Container hat **keine Volume-Mounts** (`[]`). `/data/storage` ist nicht persistent. Alle hochgeladenen Dateien (DMS, Attachments, Bilder) gehen bei jedem Redeployment verloren. Plugin-Dateien in `app/plugins/builtins/` überleben keinen Neustart.
+
+**Gefunden in:** Coolify-Container-Inspect (live)
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. In Coolify persistentes Volume für `/data/storage` konfigurieren
+2. Alternativ: S3-kompatiblen Object Storage verwenden (`.env.example` hat bereits `STORAGE_BACKEND=s3` Support)
+3. Plugin-Dateien nicht in Container-Filesystem kopieren — separate Plugin-Registry mit DB-basierter Konfiguration
+
+**Aufwand:** 1-2 Stunden (Volume in Coolify konfigurieren)
+
+---
+
+### P0-7: App von öffentlicher Domain nehmen
+
+**Problem:** Die App läuft unter `https://crm.media-on.de` und ist öffentlich erreichbar — mit allen P0-Schwachstellen (Auth-Bypass, Plugin-RCE, XSS, etc.).
+
+**Gefunden in:** Coolify-Deployment-Prüfung
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. **Sofort:** App von öffentlicher Domain nehmen oder IP-Whitelist/Basic Auth vorschalten
+2. Mindestens P0-1 (Auth-Bypass) und P0-3 (Plugin-Upload) beheben bevor wieder öffentlich
+3. Alternativ: VPN/Tunnel-Zugang statt öffentliche Domain
+
+**Aufwand:** 30 Minuten
+
+---
+
+## P1 — Vor Nutzung realer Kundendaten
+
+### P1-1: Benutzer- und Mandantenmodell bereinigen
+
+**Problem:**
+- `User` hat `tenant_id`, `role`, `role_id` — gleichzeitig existiert `UserTenant` mit `tenant_id`, `role_id`, `is_default`
+- Zwei Quellen der Wahrheit für Mandantenzugehörigkeit und Rollen
+- `login()` sucht nur nach `email` mit `scalar_one_or_none()` → crasht bei mehreren Treffern (gleiche E-Mail in mehreren Mandanten)
+- `tenant_slug` Parameter in `login()` wird von Login-Route nicht übergeben
+- `TenantService.list_tenant_users()` sucht über `User.tenant_id` und ignoriert N:M-Mitgliedschaften
+
+**Dateien:**
+- `app/models/user.py`
+- `app/services/auth_service.py:30-80`
+- `app/routes/auth.py`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. `users.email` global eindeutig machen (nicht `(tenant_id, email)`)
+2. `User.tenant_id` und `User.role`/`User.role_id` entfernen
+3. `tenant_memberships` als einzige Quelle: `tenant_id`, `user_id`, `role_id`, `status`, `is_default`
+4. `login()` mit `tenant_slug` verknüpfen oder Default-Tenant verwenden
+5. `TenantService.list_tenant_users()` über `UserTenant` suchen
+
+**Aufwand:** 1 Tag
+
+---
+
+### P1-2: Redis-Verbindungen zentralisieren
+
+**Problem:** `app/core/auth.py:49-51` erstellt pro Aufruf einen neuen Redis-Client. Kein Pool, kein Close. Dasselbe bei `enqueue_job()` für ARQ-Pools. Folgen: Connection-Lecks, Socket-Erschöpfung, instabiles Verhalten unter Last.
+
+**Datei:** `app/core/auth.py:49-51`, `app/core/worker.py` (enqueue_job)
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Redis-Client einmal im Application-Lifespan initialisieren
+2. Bei Shutdown schließen
+3. Über Dependency Injection verteilen
+4. ARQ-Pool einmalig erstellen und wiederverwenden
+
+**Aufwand:** 2-4 Stunden
+
+---
+
+### P1-3: Worker und Scheduler aus API-Container auslagern
+
+**Problem:** `prestart.sh` startet ARQ-Worker im Hintergrund und Uvicorn als PID 1. Worker-Tod wird nicht erkannt. Worker und API konkurrieren um Ressourcen. Keine separate Skalierung. Cron-Jobs können bei mehreren Replikas mehrfach ausgeführt werden.
+
+**Datei:** `prestart.sh`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Worker in separaten Container auslagern
+2. Scheduler in separaten Container mit verteilter Lock-/Leader-Election
+3. Idempotente Jobs
+4. Heartbeat mit Zeitstempel
+5. Dead-Letter-/Failed-Job-Strategie
+6. Retry-Policy pro Jobtyp
+7. Worker-Healthcheck prüft ob Worker lebt, nicht nur ob Redis-Queue lesbar ist
+
+**Aufwand:** 1-2 Tage
+
+---
+
+### P1-4: Transactional Outbox einführen
+
+**Problem:** `app/core/event_bus.py` ist rein speicherbasiert. Events verschwinden bei Prozessabsturz, Neustart, mehreren Replikas, Handler-Fehlern. `asyncio.gather(..., return_exceptions=True)` sammelt Fehler ohne Behandlung.
+
+**Datei:** `app/core/event_bus.py`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Transactional Outbox in PostgreSQL
+2. Worker verarbeitet Outbox-Einträge
+3. Inbox/Idempotency-Key auf Konsumentenseite
+4. Retry und Dead Letter
+5. Events versionieren
+6. In-Process-Bus nur für unkritische lokale Benachrichtigungen
+
+**Aufwand:** 2-3 Tage
+
+---
+
+### P1-5: XSS-Stellen schließen
+
+**Problem:**
+- `HtmlBlock.tsx`: Regex-Sanitizer + `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` — HTML lässt sich nicht sicher mit Regex sanitizen
+- `SignatureManager.tsx:201`: `dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: sig.body_html }}` **ohne jegliche Sanitization**
+- `ActionCardBlock.tsx:21-28`: `window.open(action.action)` ohne URL-Validierung — `javascript:`-URLs möglich
+- Mail-Service: `body_html_sanitized = body_html` ohne Sanitizer an manchen Stellen
+
+**Dateien:**
+- `frontend/src/components/comm/blocks/HtmlBlock.tsx`
+- `frontend/src/components/mail/SignatureManager.tsx`
+- `frontend/src/components/comm/blocks/ActionCardBlock.tsx`
+- Mail-Service (body_html_sanitized)
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Serverseitig konsequent `nh3` verwenden
+2. Frontend zusätzlich `DOMPurify` als zweite Barriere
+3. Keine selbst gebauten Regex-Sanitizer
+4. Nur `https:` und kontrollierte interne Pfade erlauben
+5. Strikte Content Security Policy ohne `unsafe-inline`
+6. Signatur-, Mail-, KI- und Kommunikationsinhalte als nicht vertrauenswürdig behandeln
+
+**Aufwand:** 4-6 Stunden
+
+---
+
+### P1-6: DMS Dateiverarbeitung lastfest machen
+
+**Problem:** `app/plugins/builtins/dms/routes.py` liest die komplette Datei in RAM (`content = await file.read()`). Max 100 MB. Bei 10 parallelen Uploads mehrere GB RAM. Kein Virenscan, kein Content-Hash, keine Dublettenerkennung, keine Tenant-Quotas, kein Versionierungsmodell, kein Garbage Collector für physische Dateien nach Soft Delete. `storage_path` wird an Frontend ausgegeben. Benutzerdateiname direkt in Content-Disposition.
+
+**Datei:** `app/plugins/builtins/dms/routes.py:421-436`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Chunked Streaming direkt in Object Storage
+2. Maximale Größe auf Proxy- und Anwendungsebene
+3. SHA-256 Content-Hash
+4. Malware-Scan
+5. Quotas pro Tenant
+6. Versionierte Metadaten
+7. Garbage Collector für physische Dateien nach Soft Delete
+8. `storage_path` nicht an Frontend ausgeben
+9. Benutzerdateiname sanitizen vor Content-Disposition
+10. Synchronen MinIO-Client aus `async def` entfernen
+
+**Aufwand:** 1-2 Tage
+
+---
+
+### P1-7: Berechtigungssystem vereinheitlichen
+
+**Problem:**
+- Legacy-Rollenstrings (`admin`/`editor`/`viewer`) + neue Rollen mit `role_id` + Gruppen + Allow/Deny + Feldrechte + `is_system_admin` + globale Write-Hilfsrechte
+- `permission_version` wird gespeichert, beim Cache-Lesen aber nicht geprüft
+- Cache-Invalidierung verwendet `redis.keys()` — blockiert Redis bei großen Datenmengen
+- Feldrechte mehrerer Gruppen werden per `dict.update()` überschrieben (last-write-wins)
+- `viewer` erhält `user_preferences:write`
+- `require_write()` erlaubt `*:write` oder `*:create` (zu breit)
+- `db.rollback()` bei Permission-Fehler setzt fremde Transaktionsarbeit zurück
+
+**Datei:** `app/core/permissions.py`, `app/deps.py`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Nur noch Capability-basierte Berechtigungen (`contacts.read`, `contacts.create`, etc.)
+2. Keine generische `require_write`-Freigabe
+3. Alte Rollenlogik entfernen
+4. Feldrechte deterministisch nach "strengstes Recht gewinnt" zusammenführen
+5. `permission_version` beim Cache-Lesen prüfen
+6. `redis.keys()` ersetzen durch `redis.scan()` oder gezielte Cache-Key-Invalidierung
+7. `db.rollback()` nur in eigenen Transaktionskontext
+
+**Aufwand:** 1-2 Tage
+
+---
+
+### P1-8: Password Reset funktionsfähig machen
+
+**Problem:** `request_password_reset()` erstellt ein Token, speichert es in der DB, sendet es aber nicht. Nicht einmal geloggt. Die Variable `raw_token` wird nach Erstellung ignoriert. Die Route sagt "a reset link has been sent" — das ist fachlich falsch. Nach Passwortwechsel werden bestehende Sessions nicht widerrufen.
+
+**Datei:** `app/services/auth_service.py:159-200`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Reset-Mail über echte Queue verschicken (ARQ-Worker)
+2. Token nur einmal verwendbar
+3. Alle Sessions des Benutzers nach Passwortänderung widerrufen
+4. Sicherheitsereignis protokollieren
+5. Optional: Nutzer über Passwortänderung informieren
+
+**Aufwand:** 2-4 Stunden
+
+---
+
+### P1-9: Metrics-Endpunkt absichern
+
+**Problem:** `app/routes/metrics.py` sagt "admin-only" im Docstring, verwendet aber nur `get_current_user` statt `require_admin`. Jeder angemeldete Benutzer kann Prometheus-Metriken abrufen.
+
+**Datei:** `app/routes/metrics.py`
+
+**Maßnahme:**

+
+### P1-10: Coolify-Dokumentation korrigieren
+
+**Problem:**
+- `COOLIFY_SETUP.md` Abschnitt 6 dokumentiert `/health` als Healthcheck-Pfad — die App hat nur `/api/v1/health`. `/health` liefert nur die SPA `index.html` (Catch-All).
+- `COOLIFY_SETUP.md` listet `JWT_ALGORITHM` und `JWT_EXPIRY_HOURS` — werden von der App nicht verwendet.
+- `CORS_ORIGINS` in Coolify ohne `:443` — `COOLIFY_SETUP.md` sagt explizit Port ist mandatory.
+
+**Dateien:** `COOLIFY_SETUP.md`, `docs/deployment-guide.md`
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Healthcheck-Pfad in Doku auf `/api/v1/health` korrigieren
+2. JWT-Variablen aus Doku entfernen oder App auf JWT umstellen
+3. `CORS_ORIGINS` in Coolify auf `https://crm.media-on.de:443` setzen
+4. `docker-compose.yml` Healthcheck auf `/api/v1/health` korrigieren
+5. `docker-compose.yml` Redis-Service hinzufügen
+6. `docker-compose.yml` `REDIS_URL` setzen
+7. `docker-compose.yml` persistentes Volume für `/data/storage`
+8. `docker-compose.yml` `SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE=true` für Production
+9. `docker-compose.yml` `STORAGE_PATH=/data/storage` setzen
+10. `config.py` Default `storage_path` von `/tmp` auf `/data/storage` ändern
+11. `config.py` Default `session_cookie_secure` auf `True` ändern (Production-Default)
+12. `config.py` Startup-Validierung: `ENVIRONMENT=production` + `session_cookie_secure=False` → harter Abbruch
+
+**Aufwand:** 2-3 Stunden
+
+---
+
+### P1-11: Cross-Tenant referenzielle Integrität
+
+**Problem:** `contactpersons` hat `tenant_id` aber `contact_id` FK referenziert nur `contacts.id` ohne Tenant-Bedingung. Die DB verhindert nicht, dass ein Contactperson-Datensatz aus Mandant A auf einen Kontakt aus Mandant B zeigt.
+
+**Datei:** `alembic/versions/0021_unified_contacts.py` (contactpersons Tabelle)
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Composite-FK: `(tenant_id, contact_id)` referenziert `(tenant_id, id)` auf `contacts`
+2. Eindeutiges `(tenant_id, id)` auf `contacts`
+3. Dasselbe für alle mandantenbezogenen FK-Beziehungen
+
+**Aufwand:** 2-4 Stunden
+
+---
+
+## P2 — Architektonische Konsolidierung
+
+### P2-1: Unified Contact Model normalisieren
+
+**Problem:** Eine Tabelle enthält Unternehmen, Personen, 3 Adressarten, Bankdaten, Steuernummern, Rabatte, Projektinformationen, Warnungen, Tags, Custom Fields, Suchindex. Dubletten zu vorhandenen Modellen für Adressen, Bankkonten, Tags, Custom Fields.
+
+**Weitere Probleme:**
+- Rabatte als `Float` statt `Numeric`/`Decimal`
+- Keine DB-Checks für Werte 0-100
+- Keine eindeutigen Kontakt-/Buchhaltungscodes pro Mandant
+- Keine klare Validierung welche Felder bei Person/Firma erlaubt sind
+- `surfix` — dauerhaft übernommener Tippfehler
+- `JSON` statt `JSONB`
+- Suche fest auf Deutsch eingestellt
+- Keine normalisierten Suchschlüssel für E-Mail und Telefonnummer
+- CSV-Import ohne Dubletten-/Encoding-/Dezimal-/Rollback-Strategie
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Adressen in separate Tabelle auslagern (bereits vorhanden — nutzen)
+2. Bankdaten in separate Tabelle (bereits vorhanden — nutzen)
+3. Tags als Relation (bereits vorhanden — nutzen)
+4. Custom Fields als Relation (bereits vorhanden — nutzen)
+5. Rabatte: `Numeric(5,2)` statt `Float`
+6. DB-Check: `discount_* BETWEEN 0 AND 100`
+7. Eindeutige `(tenant_id, code)` und `(tenant_id, accounting_code)`
+8. `surfix` → `suffix` (Migration mit Rename)
+9. `JSON` → `JSONB`
+10. Suchkonfiguration pro Mandant konfigurierbar
+11. Normalisierte Suchschlüssel (lowercase, trimmed) für E-Mail und Telefon
+12. CSV-Import: Dubletten-Erkennung, Encoding-Detection, Decimal-Parsing, Transaction-Rollback
+
+**Aufwand:** 2-3 Tage
+
+---
+
+### P2-2: Plugin-Cross-Imports reduzieren
+
+**Problem:** 204 direkte `from app.plugins.builtins` Imports zwischen Plugins. Automatisierung importiert Modelle/Services von Kommunikation, Mail, Kalender. Verteilter Monolith ohne Modulgrenzen.
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. Öffentliche Schnittstellen (Contracts) für jedes Modul definieren
+2. Direkte Imports fremder Plugin-Modelle verbieten
+3. Kommunikation nur über Events oder öffentliche Service-API
+4. CI-Check: keine direkten Cross-Plugin-Imports
+
+**Aufwand:** 1-2 Wochen
+
+---
+
+### P2-3: Commands und Statusmaschinen
+
+**Problem:** Geschäftsoperationen als `Route → Service → mehrere flush/commit` statt als zentrale Commands. Statusstrings frei beschreibbar statt Statusmaschinen.
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. `Route → Command → Authorization → Domain Operation → Transaction → Audit → Outbox Events → Commit`
+2. Explizite Statusmaschinen für Angebote, Aufträge, Rechnungen
+3. Übergänge validiert und auditiert
+
+**Aufwand:** 1-2 Wochen
+
+---
+
+### P2-4: SPA Path-Traversal-Schutz vervollständigen
+
+**Problem:** `app/main.py` SPA-Catch-All blockiert `..` nur in bestimmten Positionen. `..` in anderen Positionen wird nicht erfasst.
+
+**Datei:** `app/main.py` (spa_spa Funktion)
+
+**Maßnahme:**
+1. `os.path.abspath` gegen `frontend_dist` prüfen nach Join
+2. Kein `..` in irgendeiner Position erlauben
+
+**Aufwand:** 30 Minuten
+
+---

+Instead of plugins importing directly from each other's internal modules

+# Test Report — P2-3: Commands und Statusmaschinen Phase 1
+
+## Task
+Implement Command Pattern for Contacts domain + State Machine for Contact and Workflow entities.
+
+## Files Created
+- `app/commands/__init__.py` — Command package init
+- `app/commands/base.py` — CommandResult + BaseCommand (template method pattern)
+- `app/commands/contact_commands.py` — Create/Update/Delete/Merge contact commands
+- `app/core/state_machine.py` — Generic StateMachine + Contact/Workflow state definitions
+- `tests/test_commands.py` — Tests for all commands and state machine
+
+## Files Modified
+- `app/routes/contacts.py` — Routes now use Commands instead of direct service calls
+- `app/models/contact.py` — Added `status` field for state machine
+- `app/schemas/contact.py` — Added `status` field to ContactCreate/ContactUpdate/ContactResponse
+
+## Test Results
+
+### State Machine Tests
+- ✅ `test_can_transition_allowed` — valid transitions return True
+- ✅ `test_can_transition_disallowed` — invalid transitions return False
+- ✅ `test_transition_success` — valid transition returns new state
+- ✅ `test_transition_invalid_raises` — invalid transition raises StateMachineError
+- ✅ `test_transition_unknown_state_raises` — unknown state raises StateMachineError
+- ✅ `test_workflow_state_machine_transitions` — workflow transitions correct
+- ✅ `test_custom_state_machine` — custom transitions work
+
+### CommandResult Tests
+- ✅ `test_ok_result` — ok() creates successful result
+- ✅ `test_ok_with_events` — ok() with events
+- ✅ `test_fail_result` — fail() creates failed result
+
+### CreateContactCommand Tests
+- ✅ `test_create_contact_admin_success` — admin creates contact, audit + outbox event
+- ✅ `test_create_contact_viewer_denied` — viewer denied
+- ✅ `test_create_contact_with_invalid_status` — invalid status rejected
+
+### UpdateContactCommand Tests
+- ✅ `test_update_contact_admin_success` — admin updates contact, audit + outbox event
+- ✅ `test_update_contact_not_found` — not found error
+- ✅ `test_update_contact_viewer_denied` — viewer denied
+
+### DeleteContactCommand Tests
+- ✅ `test_soft_delete_contact_admin_success` — soft delete works, audit created
+- ✅ `test_hard_delete_contact_admin_success` — hard delete works, event enqueued
+- ✅ `test_delete_contact_not_found` — not found error
+- ✅ `test_delete_contact_viewer_denied` — viewer denied
+
+### MergeContactsCommand Tests
+- ✅ `test_merge_contacts_admin_success` — merge works, audit + outbox event
+- ✅ `test_merge_same_contact_fails` — self-merge rejected
+- ✅ `test_merge_contacts_viewer_denied` — viewer denied
+- ✅ `test_merge_contact_not_found` — not found error
+
+## Compilation Check
+`python -m py_compile` on all new/modified files.
+
+## Smoke Test
+Commands execute correctly when called directly with AsyncSession and Redis client.
+State machine validates transitions and raises on invalid attempts.
