+## Documentation Contract
+
+- Treat documentation as part of every behavior change. Update this module's manifest-driven `DocumentationTopic` contributions for affected user and administrator behavior.
+- Keep feature content here; `govoplan-docs` projects it without importing Records internals.
+- Maintain a static user/admin baseline and run `/mnt/DATA/git/govoplan/tools/checks/check-manifest-shapes.py` after behavior or manifest changes.

 ## Scope
 
 This repository owns the GovOPlaN Records platform module seed.

+# eAkte Architecture
+
+## Purpose
+
+The eAkte is the authoritative institutional record context for a matter,
+procedure, subject, project, or responsibility. It answers what belongs to the
+record, how it is structured, why an item was filed, which version was known,
+who may use it for which purpose, when it closes, what must be retained, and
+how it is offered, transferred, preserved, or disposed.
+
+GovOPlaN Records should provide this governance lifecycle natively while being
+able to place it over an external DMS, records system, long-term archive, or
+specialist procedure. It must not duplicate all document editing or storage.
+
+Implementation is tracked in
+[Records #1](https://git.add-ideas.de/GovOPlaN/govoplan-records/issues/1).
+
+## Ownership Boundary
+
+Records owns:
+
+- file plans and record classes;
+- record, volume, process/file, and record-item identity;
+- classification, filing decision, ordering, and relationship to a case or
+  other institutional context;
+- effective retention rule application, closure, hold, appraisal,
+  disposition proposal, approval, transfer, and destruction evidence;
+- authoritative record metadata and exact content/reference manifests;
+- external records-system mappings and source-authority mode;
+- export, transfer, archive-offer, and custody receipts.
+
+Records does not own:
+
+- file bytes, versions, previews, or malware handling (Files);
+- collaborative document editing, check-in/check-out, document review, or DMS
+  provider behavior (DMS and connector owner);
+- generated document definitions (Templates);
+- case lifecycle (Cases), work coordination (Workflow Engine/Tasks), formal
+  outcomes (Decisions), or general audit events (Audit);
+- generic retention and access policy authoring (Policy);
+- archive preservation implementation or evidence-renewal cryptography
+  (external archive/TR-ESOR provider and Encryption/Identity Trust).
+
+## Core Object Model
+
+| Object | Meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| File plan | Versioned hierarchy derived from institutional responsibilities |
+| Record class | Rules for required metadata, allowed content, access, retention, closure, and disposition |
+| Record | Stable legal/institutional record identity and context |
+| Volume/part | Bounded subdivision for size, period, classification, or custody |
+| Process/file | Optional business transaction grouping inside a record |
+| Record item | Immutable filing event linking exact content or an external object revision |
+| Filing note | Reason, source, relationship, ordering, actor/capacity, and evidence for inclusion |
+| Hold | Effective-dated suspension of disposition with authority and scope |
+| Appraisal | Archive value/offer decision and responsible archive interaction |
+| Disposition case | Proposed retain, transfer, destroy, or reclassify action with review and evidence |
+| Transfer package | Exact metadata/content manifest, profile, digest, encryption, and receipts |
+| Custody event | Handoff, acceptance, rejection, correction, return, or destruction observation |
+
+Every object carries tenant/institution, valid and recorded time, revision,
+source authority, classification, purpose constraints, retention/hold state,
+institutional context, provenance, and optimistic-concurrency token.

+
+Reopening creates a governed transition and does not reset elapsed retention
+without an explicit rule. A hold preserves the reason and affected scope. A
+destruction action requires exact manifest, current authority, policy,
+approval, preflight, idempotency, outcome-unknown recovery, and evidence.
+
+## Filing Semantics
+
+- Filing links an exact immutable document/file/object revision; a later source
+  revision is a new record item unless the record class permits an explicitly
+  tracked living reference.
+- The item records valid time of the represented fact and recorded time of
+  filing independently.
+- The current security context always controls browsing, including historical
+  views.
+- Purpose-aware access may be narrower than ordinary read permission and can
+  require case assignment, represented function, mandate, legal basis, or
+  reason-for-access capture.
+- A record item can reference a message, decision, form submission, report,
+  dataset materialization, external DMS object, physical item, or paper scan;
+  it is not limited to Files.
+- Corrections and replacements link items and retain what was previously part
+  of the record.
+
+## Native, External, And Hybrid Operation
+
+| Mode | GovOPlaN behavior |
+| --- | --- |
+| Native authoritative | Records owns lifecycle and manifests; Files or object storage owns bytes |
+| External authoritative | External eAkte/DMS owns structure and lifecycle; GovOPlaN keeps governed references and provider state |
+| External mirror | GovOPlaN keeps a read/search projection and immutable evidence snapshots |
+| Governed sync | Explicit metadata/filing fields can change on both sides with revision and conflict rules |
+| Governance overlay | GovOPlaN owns case/workflow/policy/evidence around records held externally |
+| Linked reference | Only stable identity, display metadata, authority, and launch link are retained |
+
+The mode is configurable by tenant, record class, provider binding, and where
+safe by field group. A migration assesses exact objects and receipts; enabling
+a connector never silently copies all records.
+
+## Standards And Provider Profiles
+
+The domain contract remains neutral, while German public-sector deployments
+can add profiles for:
+
+- `xdomea` exchange of files, processes, documents, file plans, and
+  disposition messages. The IT-Planungsrat decision defines xdomea for
+  inter-authority exchange and disposition scenarios:
+  <https://www.it-planungsrat.de/beschluss/beschluss-2017-39>
+- archive offering and transfer guidance from the Bundesarchiv, including
+  xdomea and XAIP/LXAIP packages:
+  <https://www.bundesarchiv.de/unterlagen-abgeben/aussonderung-von-unterlagen/elektronische-akten/>
+- BSI TR-03125/TR-ESOR evidence preservation and archive information packages
+  where cryptographic evidentiary value must be maintained:
+  <https://www.bsi.bund.de/dok/TR-03125>
+- provider-specific DMS/VBS, archive, and specialist-procedure adapters through
+  the standard external-provider declaration and recovery gate.
+
+A profile declares supported operations, conformance version, metadata
+mapping, content formats, evidence behavior, size limits, retries, conflicts,
+and target-tested provider. Naming a standard is not a conformance claim.
+
+## UI Model
+
+The normal record workspace contains:
+
+- file-plan tree and saved institutional contexts;
+- record list with class, subject, responsibility, state, retention, holds,
+  source, and access explanation;
+- one record surface with metadata, chronology, structured contents, related
+  case/service/decision/work, access reason, and evidence;
+- filing action available from owner modules without exposing Records internals;
+- close, reopen, hold, appraisal, transfer, and disposition workflows with
+  consequence preview;
+- temporal current/at/all browsing, while clearly separating valid and recorded
+  time;
+- search and export that honor current access, purpose, sealed content, and
+  minimization.
+
+Technical provider IDs, hashes, package schemas, and source mappings remain
+available in an evidence/details view.
+
+## Recovery And Scale
+
+- PostgreSQL is the durable record-state authority; content uses shared object
+  storage or an external provider, never node-local paths.
+- Every external filing, transfer, or destruction uses intent-before-effect,
+  idempotency, durable receipts, outcome-unknown state, and reconciliation.
+- Backup evidence binds record rows, object manifests, provider mappings,
+  policy/configuration versions, and key references.
+- Restore verifies content digests, missing keys/objects, provider reachability,
+  and disposition holds before reopening effects.
+- Search indexes are rebuildable projections and cannot become record
+  authority.
+
+## Delivery Order
+
+1. Persist file plans, record classes, records, record items, exact references,
+   chronology, permissions, temporal reads, institutional context, and search.
+2. Integrate filing from Cases, Forms Runtime, Decisions, Campaign/Postbox,
+   Files, and Reporting.
+3. Add closure, retention calculation, holds, appraisal, and reviewed
+   disposition without destructive provider effects.
+4. Add native transfer packages and one target-tested xdomea/archive provider.
+5. Add destruction/recovery, TR-ESOR provider integration, migration, and
+   signed reference-journey evidence.
+
+The first reference package should file the digital and assisted variants of
+the same service-to-decision journey into equivalent records and prove search,
+historical reconstruction, hold, transfer, restore, and access explanation.
