+## FastAPI Database Transaction Management: Technical Specification
+
+**Objective:** Ensure atomic, consistent, isolated, and durable (ACID) database operations through a standardized transaction management strategy.
+
+**1. API Endpoint Transaction Scope (Primary Strategy):**
+
+*   **Mechanism:** A FastAPI dependency `get_transactional_session` (from `app.database` or `app.core.dependencies`) wraps database-modifying API request handlers.
+*   **Behavior:**
+    *   `async with AsyncSessionLocal() as session:` obtains a session.
+    *   `async with session.begin():` starts a transaction.
+    *   **Commit:** Automatic on successful completion of the `yield session` block (i.e., endpoint handler success).
+    *   **Rollback:** Automatic on any exception raised from the `yield session` block.
+*   **Usage:** Endpoints performing CUD (Create, Update, Delete) operations **MUST** use `db: AsyncSession = Depends(get_transactional_session)`.
+*   **Read-Only Endpoints:** May use `get_async_session` (alias `get_db`) or `get_transactional_session` (results in an empty transaction).
+
+**2. CRUD Layer Function Design:**
+
+*   **Transaction Participation:** CRUD functions (in `app/crud/`) operate on the session provided by the caller.
+*   **Composability Pattern:** Employ `async with db.begin_nested() if db.in_transaction() else db.begin():` to wrap database modification logic within the CRUD function.
+    *   If an outer transaction exists (e.g., from `get_transactional_session`), `begin_nested()` creates a **savepoint**. The `async with` block commits/rolls back this savepoint.
+    *   If no outer transaction exists (e.g., direct call from a script), `begin()` starts a **new transaction**. The `async with` block commits/rolls back this transaction.
+*   **NO Direct `db.commit()` / `db.rollback()`:** CRUD functions **MUST NOT** call these directly. The `async with begin_nested()/begin()` block and the outermost transaction manager are responsible.
+*   **`await db.flush()`:** Use only when necessary within the `async with` block to:
+    1.  Obtain auto-generated IDs for subsequent operations in the *same* transaction.
+    2.  Force database constraint checks mid-transaction.
+*   **Error Handling:** Raise specific custom exceptions (e.g., `ListNotFoundError`, `DatabaseIntegrityError`). These exceptions will trigger rollbacks in the managing transaction contexts.
+
+**3. Non-API Operations (Background Tasks, Scripts):**
+
+*   **Explicit Management:** These contexts **MUST** manage their own session and transaction lifecycles.
+*   **Pattern:**
+    ```python
+    async with AsyncSessionLocal() as session:
+        async with session.begin(): # Manages transaction for the task's scope
+            try:
+                # Call CRUD functions, which will participate via savepoints
+                await crud_operation_1(db=session, ...)
+                await crud_operation_2(db=session, ...)
+                # Commit is handled by session.begin() context manager on success
+            except Exception:
+                # Rollback is handled by session.begin() context manager on error
+                raise
+    ```
+
+**4. Key Principles Summary:**
+
+*   **API:** `get_transactional_session` for CUD.
+*   **CRUD:** Use `async with db.begin_nested() if db.in_transaction() else db.begin():`. No direct commit/rollback. Use `flush()` strategically.
+*   **Background Tasks:** Explicit `AsyncSessionLocal()` and `session.begin()` context managers.
+
+
+This strategy ensures a clear separation of concerns, promotes composable CRUD operations, and centralizes final transaction control at the appropriate layer.

+# - Overpayment (current logic in update_expense_split_status treats >= owed_amount as 'paid').
+# - Different users creating the activity vs. paying for it (permission aspects, though that's more for API tests).
+# - Interactions with different expense split types if that affects status updates.
+# - Ensuring `overall_settlement_status` correctly reflects if one split is paid, another is unpaid, etc.
+#   (e.g. test_expense_split_user1_owes_self_for_completeness is set to unpaid initially).
+#   A test case where one split becomes 'paid' but another remains 'unpaid' should result in 'partially_paid' for the expense.

+# Production Deployment Guide (Gitea Actions)
+
+This guide covers deploying the mitlist application to a production environment using Docker Compose and Gitea Actions for CI/CD.
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+1.  **Clone the repository** (if not already done):
+    ```bash
+    git clone <your-repo>
+    cd mitlist
+    ```
+
+2.  **Configure Gitea Secrets**:
+    In your Gitea repository settings, go to "Secrets" and add the following secrets. These will be used by the `deploy-prod.yml` workflow.
+
+    *   `DOCKER_USERNAME`: Your Docker Hub username (or username for your container registry).
+    *   `DOCKER_PASSWORD`: Your Docker Hub password (or token for your container registry).
+    *   `SERVER_HOST`: IP address or hostname of your production server.
+    *   `SERVER_USERNAME`: Username for SSH access to your production server.
+    *   `SSH_PRIVATE_KEY`: Your private SSH key for accessing the production server.
+    *   `SERVER_PORT`: (Optional) SSH port for your server (defaults to 22).
+    *   `POSTGRES_USER`: Production database username.
+    *   `POSTGRES_PASSWORD`: Production database password.
+    *   `POSTGRES_DB`: Production database name.
+    *   `DATABASE_URL`: Production database connection string.
+    *   `SECRET_KEY`: FastAPI application secret key.
+    *   `SESSION_SECRET_KEY`: FastAPI session secret key.
+    *   `GEMINI_API_KEY`: API key for Gemini.
+    *   `REDIS_PASSWORD`: Password for Redis.
+    *   `SENTRY_DSN`: (Optional) Sentry DSN for backend error tracking.
+    *   `CORS_ORIGINS`: Comma-separated list of allowed CORS origins for production (e.g., `https://yourdomain.com`).
+    *   `FRONTEND_URL`: The public URL of your frontend (e.g., `https://yourdomain.com`).
+    *   `VITE_API_URL`: The public API URL for the frontend (e.g., `https://yourdomain.com/api`).
+    *   `VITE_SENTRY_DSN`: (Optional) Sentry DSN for frontend error tracking.
+
+3.  **Prepare your Production Server**:
+    *   Install Docker and Docker Compose (see Prerequisites section below).
+    *   Ensure your server can be accessed via SSH using the key you added to Gitea secrets.
+    *   Create the deployment directory on your server (e.g., `/srv/mitlist`).
+    *   Copy the `docker-compose.prod.yml` file to this directory on your server.
+
+4.  **Push to `main` branch**:
+    Once the Gitea workflows (`.gitea/workflows/build-test.yml` and `.gitea/workflows/deploy-prod.yml`) are in your repository, pushing to the `main` branch will automatically trigger the deployment workflow.
+
+## 📋 Prerequisites (Server Setup)
+
+### System Requirements
+-   **OS**: Ubuntu 20.04+ / CentOS 8+ / Debian 11+
+-   **RAM**: Minimum 2GB, Recommended 4GB+
+-   **Storage**: Minimum 20GB free space
+-   **CPU**: 2+ cores recommended
+
+### Software Dependencies (on Production Server)
+-   Docker 20.10+
+-   Docker Compose 2.0+
+
+### Installation Commands
+
+**Ubuntu/Debian:**
+```bash
+# Update system
+sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
+
+# Install Docker
+curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
+sudo sh get-docker.sh
+sudo usermod -aG docker $USER # Add your deployment user to docker group
+
+# Install Docker Compose
+sudo apt install docker-compose-plugin
+
+# Reboot or log out/in to apply group changes
+# sudo reboot
+```
+
+**CentOS/RHEL:**
+```bash
+# Update system
+sudo yum update -y
+
+# Install Docker
+sudo yum install -y yum-utils
+sudo yum-config-manager --add-repo https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo
+sudo yum install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-compose-plugin
+sudo systemctl start docker
+sudo systemctl enable docker
+sudo usermod -aG docker $USER # Add your deployment user to docker group
+
+# Reboot or log out/in to apply group changes
+# sudo reboot
+```
+
+## 🔧 Configuration Overview
+
+*   **`docker-compose.prod.yml`**: Defines the production services (database, backend, frontend, redis). This file needs to be on your production server in the deployment directory.
+*   **`.gitea/workflows/build-test.yml`**: Gitea workflow that builds and runs tests on every push to `main` or `develop`, and on pull requests to these branches.
+*   **`.gitea/workflows/deploy-prod.yml`**: Gitea workflow that triggers on pushes to the `main` branch. It builds and pushes Docker images to your container registry and then SSHes into your production server to update environment variables and restart services using `docker-compose`.
+*   **`env.production.template`**: A template file showing the environment variables needed. These are now set directly in the Gitea deployment workflow via secrets.
+
+## 🚀 Deployment Process (via Gitea Actions)
+
+1.  **Code Push**: Developer pushes code to the `main` branch.
+2.  **Build & Test Workflow**: (Optional, if you keep `build-test.yml` active on `main` as well) The `build-test.yml` workflow runs, ensuring code quality.
+3.  **Deploy Workflow Trigger**: The `deploy-prod.yml` workflow is triggered.
+4.  **Checkout Code**: The workflow checks out the latest code.
+5.  **Login to Registry**: Logs into your specified Docker container registry.
+6.  **Build & Push Images**: Builds the production Docker images for the backend and frontend and pushes them to the registry.
+7.  **SSH to Server**: Connects to your production server via SSH.
+8.  **Set Environment Variables**: Creates/updates the `.env.production` file on the server using the Gitea secrets.
+9.  **Pull New Images**: Runs `docker-compose pull` to fetch the newly pushed images.
+10. **Restart Services**: Runs `docker-compose up -d` to restart the services with the new images and configuration.
+11. **Prune Images**: Cleans up old, unused Docker images on the server.
+
+## 🏗️ Simplified Architecture
+
+With the removal of nginx as a reverse proxy, the architecture is simpler:
+
+```
+[ User / Internet ]
+      |
+      v
+[ Frontend Service (Port 80) ]  <-- Serves Vue.js app (e.g., via `serve`)
+      |
+      v (API Calls)
+[ Backend Service (Internal Port 8000) ] <-- FastAPI
+      |         |
+      v         v
+[ PostgreSQL ] [ Redis ]
+(Database)   (Cache)
+```
+
+*   The **Frontend** service now directly exposes port 80 (or another port you configure) to the internet.
+*   The **Backend** service is still internal and accessed by the frontend via its Docker network name (`backend:8000`).
+
+**Note on SSL/HTTPS**: Since nginx is removed, SSL termination is not handled by this setup. You would typically handle SSL at a higher level, for example:
+    *   Using a cloud provider's load balancer with SSL termination.
+    *   Placing another reverse proxy (like Caddy, Traefik, or a dedicated nginx instance) in front of your Docker setup on the server, configured for SSL.
+    *   Using services like Cloudflare that can provide SSL for your domain.
+
+## 📊 Monitoring & Logging
+
+### Health Checks
+*   **Backend**: `http://<your_server_ip_or_domain>/api/health` (assuming your backend health endpoint is accessible if you map its port in `docker-compose.prod.yml` or if the frontend proxies it).
+*   **Frontend**: The `serve` package used by the frontend doesn't have a dedicated health check endpoint by default. You can check if the main page loads.
+
+### Log Access
+```bash
+# On your production server, in the deployment directory
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs -f
+
+# Specific service logs
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs -f backend
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs -f frontend
+```
+
+## 🔄 Maintenance
+
+### Database Backups
+Manual backups can still be performed on the server:
+```bash
+# Ensure your .env.production file is sourced or vars are available
+docker exec postgres_db_prod pg_dump -U $POSTGRES_USER $POSTGRES_DB > backup-$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
+```
+Consider automating this with a cron job on your server.
+
+### Updates
+Updates are now handled by pushing to the `main` branch, which triggers the Gitea deployment workflow.
+
+## 🐛 Troubleshooting
+
+### Gitea Workflow Failures
+*   Check the Gitea Actions logs for the specific workflow run to identify errors.
+*   Ensure all secrets are correctly configured in Gitea.
+*   Verify Docker Hub/registry credentials.

+# Expense System Documentation
+
+## Overview
+
+The expense system is a core feature that allows users to track shared expenses, split them among group members, and manage settlements. The system supports various split types and integrates with lists, groups, and items.
+
+## Core Components
+
+### 1. Expenses
+
+An expense represents a shared cost that needs to be split among multiple users.
+
+#### Key Properties
+
+- `id`: Unique identifier
+- `description`: Description of the expense
+- `total_amount`: Total cost of the expense (Decimal)
+- `currency`: Currency code (defaults to "USD")
+- `expense_date`: When the expense occurred
+- `split_type`: How the expense should be divided
+- `list_id`: Optional reference to a shopping list
+- `group_id`: Optional reference to a group
+- `item_id`: Optional reference to a specific item
+- `paid_by_user_id`: User who paid for the expense
+- `created_by_user_id`: User who created the expense record
+- `version`: For optimistic locking
+- `overall_settlement_status`: Overall payment status
+
+#### Status Types
+
+```typescript
+enum ExpenseOverallStatusEnum {
+	UNPAID = "unpaid",
+	PARTIALLY_PAID = "partially_paid",
+	PAID = "paid",
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Expense Splits
+
+Splits represent how an expense is divided among users.
+
+#### Key Properties
+
+- `id`: Unique identifier
+- `expense_id`: Reference to parent expense
+- `user_id`: User who owes this portion
+- `owed_amount`: Amount owed by the user
+- `share_percentage`: Percentage share (for percentage-based splits)
+- `share_units`: Number of shares (for share-based splits)
+- `status`: Current payment status
+- `paid_at`: When the split was paid
+- `settlement_activities`: List of payment activities
+
+#### Status Types
+
+```typescript
+enum ExpenseSplitStatusEnum {
+	UNPAID = "unpaid",
+	PARTIALLY_PAID = "partially_paid",
+	PAID = "paid",
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Settlement Activities
+
+Settlement activities track individual payments made towards expense splits.
+
+#### Key Properties
+
+- `id`: Unique identifier
+- `expense_split_id`: Reference to the split being paid
+- `paid_by_user_id`: User making the payment
+- `amount_paid`: Amount being paid
+- `paid_at`: When the payment was made
+- `created_by_user_id`: User who recorded the payment
+
+## Split Types
+
+The system supports multiple ways to split expenses:
+
+### 1. Equal Split
+
+- Divides the total amount equally among all participants
+- Handles rounding differences by adding remainder to first split
+- No additional data required
+
+### 2. Exact Amounts
+
+- Users specify exact amounts for each person
+- Sum of amounts must equal total expense
+- Requires `splits_in` data with exact amounts
+
+### 3. Percentage Based
+
+- Users specify percentage shares
+- Percentages must sum to 100%
+- Requires `splits_in` data with percentages
+
+### 4. Share Based
+
+- Users specify number of shares
+- Amount divided proportionally to shares
+- Requires `splits_in` data with share units
+
+### 5. Item Based
+
+- Splits based on items in a shopping list
+- Each item's cost is assigned to its adder
+- Requires `list_id` and optionally `item_id`
+
+## Integration Points
+
+### 1. Lists
+
+- Expenses can be associated with shopping lists
+- Item-based splits use list items to determine splits
+- List's group context can determine split participants
+
+### 2. Groups
+
+- Expenses can be directly associated with groups
+- Group membership determines who can be included in splits
+- Group context is required if no list is specified
+
+### 3. Items
+
+- Expenses can be linked to specific items
+- Item prices are used for item-based splits
+- Items must belong to a list
+
+### 4. Users
+
+- Users can be payers, debtors, or payment recorders
+- User relationships are tracked in splits and settlements
+- User context is required for all financial operations
+
+## Key Operations
+
+### 1. Creating Expenses
+
+1. Validate context (list/group)
+2. Create expense record
+3. Generate splits based on split type
+4. Validate total amounts match
+5. Save all records in transaction
+
+### 2. Updating Expenses
+
+- Limited to non-financial fields:
+  - Description
+  - Currency
+  - Expense date
+- Uses optimistic locking via version field
+- Cannot modify splits after creation
+
+### 3. Recording Payments
+
+1. Create settlement activity
+2. Update split status
+3. Recalculate expense overall status
+4. All operations in single transaction
+
+### 4. Deleting Expenses
+
+- Requires version matching
+- Cascades to splits and settlements
+- All operations in single transaction
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Data Integrity**
+
+   - Always use transactions for multi-step operations
+   - Validate totals match before saving
+   - Use optimistic locking for updates
+
+2. **Error Handling**
+
+   - Handle database errors appropriately
+   - Validate user permissions
+   - Check for concurrent modifications
+
+3. **Performance**
+
+   - Use appropriate indexes
+   - Load relationships efficiently
+   - Batch operations when possible
+
+4. **Security**
+   - Validate user permissions
+   - Sanitize input data
+   - Use proper access controls
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+1. **Group Dinner**
+
+   - Create expense with total amount
+   - Use equal split or exact amounts
+   - Record payments as they occur
+
+2. **Shopping List**
+
+   - Create item-based expense
+   - System automatically splits based on items
+   - Track payments per person
+
+3. **Rent Sharing**
+
+   - Create expense with total rent
+   - Use percentage or share-based split
+   - Record monthly payments
+
+4. **Trip Expenses**
+   - Create multiple expenses
+   - Mix different split types
+   - Track overall balances
+
+## Recurring Expenses
+
+Recurring expenses are expenses that repeat at regular intervals. They are useful for regular payments like rent, utilities, or subscription services.
+
+### Recurrence Types
+
+1. **Daily**
+
+   - Repeats every X days
+   - Example: Daily parking fee
+
+2. **Weekly**
+
+   - Repeats every X weeks on specific days
+   - Example: Weekly cleaning service
+
+3. **Monthly**
+
+   - Repeats every X months on the same date
+   - Example: Monthly rent payment
+
+4. **Yearly**
+   - Repeats every X years on the same date
+   - Example: Annual insurance premium
+
+### Implementation Details
+
+1. **Recurrence Pattern**
+
+   ```typescript
+   interface RecurrencePattern {
+   	type: "daily" | "weekly" | "monthly" | "yearly";
+   	interval: number; // Every X days/weeks/months/years
+   	daysOfWeek?: number[]; // For weekly recurrence (0-6, Sunday-Saturday)
+   	endDate?: string; // Optional end date for the recurrence
+   	maxOccurrences?: number; // Optional maximum number of occurrences
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Recurring Expense Properties**
+
+   - All standard expense properties
+   - `recurrence_pattern`: Defines how the expense repeats
+   - `next_occurrence`: When the next expense will be created
+   - `last_occurrence`: When the last expense was created
+   - `is_recurring`: Boolean flag to identify recurring expenses
+
+3. **Generation Process**
+
+   - System automatically creates new expenses based on the pattern
+   - Each generated expense is a regular expense with its own splits
+   - Original recurring expense serves as a template
+   - Generated expenses can be modified individually
+
+4. **Management Features**
+   - Pause/resume recurrence
+   - Modify future occurrences
+   - Skip specific occurrences
+   - End recurrence early
+   - View all generated expenses
+
+### Best Practices for Recurring Expenses
+
+1. **Data Management**
+
+   - Keep original recurring expense as template
+   - Generate new expenses in advance
+   - Clean up old generated expenses periodically
+
+2. **User Experience**
+
+   - Clear indication of recurring expenses
+   - Easy way to modify future occurrences
+   - Option to handle exceptions
+
+3. **Performance**
+   - Batch process expense generation
+   - Index recurring expense queries
+   - Cache frequently accessed patterns
+
+### Example Use Cases
+
+1. **Monthly Rent**
+
+   ```json
+   {
+   	"description": "Monthly Rent",
+   	"total_amount": "2000.00",
+   	"split_type": "PERCENTAGE",
+   	"recurrence_pattern": {
+   		"type": "monthly",
+   		"interval": 1,
+   		"endDate": "2024-12-31"
+   	}
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Weekly Cleaning Service**
+   ```json
+   {
+   	"description": "Weekly Cleaning",
+   	"total_amount": "150.00",
+   	"split_type": "EQUAL",
+   	"recurrence_pattern": {
+   		"type": "weekly",
+   		"interval": 1,
+   		"daysOfWeek": [1] // Every Monday
+   	}
+   }
+   ```
+
+## API Considerations
+
+1. **Decimal Handling**
+
+   - Use string representation for decimals in API
+   - Convert to Decimal for calculations
+   - Round to 2 decimal places for money
+
+2. **Date Handling**
+
+   - Use ISO format for dates
+   - Store in UTC
+   - Convert to local time for display
+
+3. **Status Updates**
+   - Update split status on payment
+   - Recalculate overall status
+   - Notify relevant users

+
+### 1. Project Overview
+
+**1.1. Concept:**
+Develop a Progressive Web App (PWA) designed to streamline household coordination and shared responsibilities. The application enables users within defined groups (e.g., households, roommates, families) to collaboratively manage shopping lists, track and split expenses with historical accuracy, and manage recurring or one-off household chores.
+
+**1.2. Goals:**
+
+- Simplify the creation, management, and sharing of shopping lists.
+- Provide an efficient way to add items via image capture and OCR (using Gemini 1.5 Flash).
+- Enable transparent and traceable tracking and splitting of shared expenses related to shopping lists.
+- Offer a clear system for managing and assigning recurring or single-instance household chores.
+- Deliver a seamless, near-native user experience across devices through PWA technologies, including robust offline capabilities.
+- Foster better communication and coordination within shared living environments.
+
+**1.3. Target Audience:**
+
+- Roommates sharing household expenses and chores.
+- Families coordinating grocery shopping and household tasks.
+- Couples managing shared finances and responsibilities.
+- Groups organizing events or trips involving shared purchases.
+
+### 2. Key Features (V1 Scope)
+
+The Minimum Viable Product (V1) focuses on delivering the core functionalities with a high degree of polish and reliability:
+
+- **User Authentication & Group Management (using `fastapi-users`):**
+  - Secure email/password signup, login, password reset, email verification (leveraging `fastapi-users` features).
+  - Ability to create user groups (e.g., "Home", "Trip").
+  - Invite members to groups via unique, shareable codes/links.
+  - Basic role distinction (Owner, Member) for group administration.
+  - Ability for users to view groups and leave groups.
+- **Shared Shopping List Management:**
+  - CRUD operations for shopping lists (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
+  - Option to create personal lists or share lists with specific groups.
+  - Real-time (or near real-time via polling/basic WebSocket) updates for shared lists.
+  - CRUD operations for items within lists (name, quantity, notes).
+  - Ability to mark items as purchased.
+  - Attribution for who added/completed items in shared lists.
+- **OCR Integration (Gemini 1.5 Flash):**
+  - Capture images (receipts, handwritten lists) via browser (`input capture` / `getUserMedia`).
+  - Backend processing using Google AI API (Gemini 1.5 Flash model) with tailored prompts to extract item names.
+  - User review and edit screen for confirming/correcting extracted items before adding them to the list.
+  - Clear progress indicators and error handling.
+- **Cost Splitting (Traceable):**
+  - Ability to add prices to completed items on a list, recording who added the price and when.
+  - Functionality to trigger an expense calculation for a list based on items with prices.
+  - Creation of immutable `ExpenseRecord` entries detailing the total amount, participants, and calculation time/user.
+  - Generation of `ExpenseShare` entries detailing the amount owed per participant for each `ExpenseRecord`.
+  - Ability for participants to mark their specific `ExpenseShare` as paid, logged via a `SettlementActivity` record for full traceability.
+  - View displaying historical expense records and their settlement status for each list.
+  - V1 focuses on equal splitting among all group members associated with the list at the time of calculation.
+- **Chore Management (Recurring & Assignable):**
+  - CRUD operations for chores within a group context.
+  - Ability to define chores as one-time or recurring (daily, weekly, monthly, custom intervals).
+  - System calculates `next_due_date` based on frequency.
+  - Manual assignment of chores (specific instances/due dates) to group members via `ChoreAssignments`.
+  - Ability for assigned users to mark their specific `ChoreAssignment` as complete.
+  - Automatic update of the parent chore's `last_completed_at` and recalculation of `next_due_date` upon completion of recurring chores.
+  - Dedicated view for users to see their pending assigned chores ("My Chores").
+- **PWA Core Functionality:**
+  - Installable on user devices via `manifest.json`.
+  - Offline access to cached data (lists, items, chores, basic expense info) via Service Workers and IndexedDB.
+  - Background synchronization queue for actions performed offline (adding items, marking complete, adding prices, completing chores).
+  - Basic conflict resolution strategy (e.g., last-write-wins with user notification) for offline data sync.
+
+### 3. User Experience (UX) Philosophy
+
+- **User-Centered & Collaborative:** Focus on intuitive workflows for both individual task management and seamless group collaboration. Minimize friction in common tasks like adding items, splitting costs, and completing chores.
+- **Native-like PWA Experience:** Leverage Service Workers, caching (IndexedDB), and `manifest.json` to provide fast loading, reliable offline functionality, and installability, mimicking a native app experience.
+- **Clarity & Accessibility:** Prioritize clear information hierarchy, legible typography, sufficient contrast, and adherence to WCAG accessibility standards for usability by all users. Utilize **Valerie UI** components designed with accessibility in mind.
+- **Informative Feedback:** Provide immediate visual feedback for user actions (loading states, confirmations, animations). Clearly communicate offline status, sync progress, OCR processing status, and data conflicts.
+
+### 4. Architecture & Technology Stack
+
+- **Frontend:**
+  - **Framework:** Vue.js (Vue 3 with Composition API, built with Vite).
+  - **Styling & UI Components:** **Valerie UI** (as the primary component library and design system).
+  - **State Management:** Pinia (official state management library for Vue).
+  - **PWA:** Vite PWA plugin (leveraging Workbox.js under the hood) for Service Worker generation, manifest management, and caching strategies. IndexedDB for offline data storage.
+- **Backend:**
+  - **Framework:** FastAPI (Python, high-performance, async support, automatic docs).
+  - **Database:** PostgreSQL (reliable relational database with JSONB support).
+  - **ORM:** SQLAlchemy (version 2.0+ with native async support).
+  - **Migrations:** Alembic (for managing database schema changes).
+  - **Authentication & User Management:** **`fastapi-users`** (handles user models, password hashing, JWT/cookie authentication, and core auth endpoints like signup, login, password reset, email verification).
+- **Cloud Services & APIs:**
+  - **OCR:** Google AI API (using `gemini-1.5-flash-latest` model).
+  - **Hosting (Backend):** Containerized deployment (Docker) on cloud platforms like Google Cloud Run, AWS Fargate, or DigitalOcean App Platform.
+  - **Hosting (Frontend):** Static hosting platforms like Vercel, Netlify, or Cloudflare Pages (optimized for Vite-built Vue apps).
+- **DevOps & Monitoring:**
+  - **Version Control:** Git (hosted on GitHub, GitLab, etc.).
+  - **Containerization:** Docker & Docker Compose (for local development and deployment consistency).
+  - **CI/CD:** GitHub Actions (or similar) for automated testing and deployment pipelines (using Vite build commands for frontend).
+  - **Error Tracking:** Sentry (or similar) for real-time error monitoring.
+  - **Logging:** Standard Python logging configured within FastAPI.
+
+### 5. Data Model Highlights
+
+Key database tables supporting the application's features:
+
+- `Users`: Stores user account information. The schema will align with `fastapi-users` requirements (e.g., `id`, `email`, `hashed_password`, `is_active`, `is_superuser`, `is_verified`), with potential custom fields added as needed.
+- `Groups`: Defines shared groups (name, owner).
+- `UserGroups`: Many-to-many relationship linking users to groups with roles (owner/member).
+- `Lists`: Stores shopping list details (name, description, creator, associated group, completion status).
+- `Items`: Stores individual shopping list items (name, quantity, price, completion status, list association, user attribution for adding/pricing).
+- `ExpenseRecords`: Logs each instance of a cost split calculation for a list (total amount, participants, calculation time/user, overall settlement status).
+- `ExpenseShares`: Details the amount owed by each participant for a specific `ExpenseRecord` (links to user and record, amount, paid status).
+- `SettlementActivities`: Records every action taken to mark an `ExpenseShare` as paid (links to record, payer, affected user, timestamp).
+- `Chores`: Defines chore templates (name, description, group association, recurrence rules, next due date).
+- `ChoreAssignments`: Tracks specific instances of chores assigned to users (links to chore, user, due date, completion status).
+
+### 6. Core User Flows (Summarized)
+
+- **Onboarding:** Signup/Login (via `fastapi-users` flow) -> Optional guided tour -> Create/Join first group -> Dashboard.
+- **List Creation & Sharing:** Create List -> Choose Personal or Share with Group -> List appears on dashboard (and shared members' dashboards).
+- **Adding Items (Manual):** Open List -> Type item name -> Item added.
+- **Adding Items (OCR):** Open List -> Tap "Add via Photo" -> Capture/Select Image -> Upload/Process (Gemini) -> Review/Edit extracted items -> Confirm -> Items added to list.
+- **Shopping & Price Entry:** Open List -> Check off items -> Enter price for completed items -> Price saved.
+- **Cost Splitting Cycle:** View List -> Click "Calculate Split" -> Backend creates traceable `ExpenseRecord` & `ExpenseShares` -> View Expense History -> Participants mark their shares paid (creating `SettlementActivity`).
+- **Chore Cycle:** Create Chore (define recurrence) -> Chore appears in group list -> (Manual Assignment) Assign chore instance to user -> User views "My Chores" -> User marks assignment complete -> Backend updates status and recalculates next due date for recurring chores.
+- **Offline Usage:** Open app offline -> View cached lists/chores -> Add/complete items/chores -> Changes queued -> Go online -> Background sync processes queue -> UI updates, conflicts notified.
+
+### 7. Development Roadmap (Phase Summary)
+
+1.  **Phase 1: Planning & Design:** User stories, flows, sharing/sync models, tech stack, architecture, schema design.
+2.  **Phase 2: Core App Setup:** Project initialization (Git, **Vue.js with Vite**, FastAPI), DB connection (SQLAlchemy/Alembic), basic PWA config (**Vite PWA plugin**, manifest, SW), **Valerie UI integration**, **Pinia setup**, Docker setup, CI checks.
+3.  **Phase 3: User Auth & Group Management:** Backend: Integrate **`fastapi-users`**, configure its routers, adapt user model. Frontend: Implement auth pages using **Vue components**, **Pinia for auth state**, and calling `fastapi-users` endpoints. Implement Group Management features.
+4.  **Phase 4: Shared Shopping List CRUD:** Backend/Frontend for List/Item CRUD, permissions, basic real-time updates (polling), offline sync refinement for lists/items.
+5.  **Phase 5: OCR Integration (Gemini Flash):** Backend integration with Google AI SDK, image capture/upload UI, OCR processing endpoint, review/edit screen, integration with list items.
+6.  **Phase 6: Cost Splitting (Traceable):** Backend/Frontend for adding prices, calculating splits (creating historical records), viewing expense history, marking shares paid (with activity logging).
+7.  **Phase 7: Chore Splitting Module:** Backend/Frontend for Chore CRUD (including recurrence), manual assignment, completion tracking, "My Chores" view, recurrence handling logic.
+8.  **Phase 8: Testing, Refinement & Beta Launch:** Comprehensive E2E testing, usability testing, accessibility checks, performance tuning, deployment to beta environment, feedback collection.
+9.  **Phase 9: Final Release & Post-Launch Monitoring:** Address beta feedback, final deployment to production, setup monitoring (errors, performance, costs).
+
+_(Estimated Total Duration: Approx. 17-19 Weeks for V1)_
+
+### 8. Risk Management & Mitigation
+
+- **Collaboration Complexity:** (Risk) Permissions and real-time sync can be complex. (Mitigation) Start simple, test permissions thoroughly, use clear data models.
+- **OCR Accuracy/Cost (Gemini):** (Risk) OCR isn't perfect; API calls have costs/quotas. (Mitigation) Use capable model (Gemini Flash), mandatory user review step, clear error feedback, monitor API usage/costs, secure API keys.
+- **Offline Sync Conflicts:** (Risk) Concurrent offline edits can clash. (Mitigation) Implement defined strategy (last-write-wins + notify), robust queue processing, thorough testing of conflict scenarios.
+- **PWA Consistency:** (Risk) Behavior varies across browsers/OS (esp. iOS). (Mitigation) Rigorous cross-platform testing, use standard tools (Vite PWA plugin/Workbox), follow best practices.
+- **Traceability Overhead:** (Risk) Storing detailed history increases DB size/complexity. (Mitigation) Design efficient queries, use appropriate indexing, plan for potential data archiving later.
+- **User Adoption:** (Risk) Users might not consistently use groups/features. (Mitigation) Smooth onboarding, clear value proposition, reliable core features.
+- **Valerie UI Maturity/Flexibility:** (Risk, if "Valerie UI" is niche or custom) Potential limitations in component availability or customization. (Mitigation) Thoroughly evaluate Valerie UI early, have fallback styling strategies if needed, or contribute to/extend the library.
+
+### 9. Testing Strategy
+
+- **Unit Tests:** Backend logic (calculations, permissions, recurrence), Frontend component logic (**Vue Test Utils** for Vue components, Pinia store testing).
+- **Integration Tests:** Backend API endpoints interacting with DB and external APIs (Gemini - mocked).
+- **End-to-End (E2E) Tests:** (Playwright/Cypress) Simulate full user flows across features.
+- **PWA Testing:** Manual and automated checks for installability, offline functionality (caching, sync queue), cross-browser/OS compatibility.
+- **Accessibility Testing:** Automated tools (axe-core) + manual checks (keyboard nav, screen readers), leveraging **Valerie UI's** accessibility features.
+- **Usability Testing:** Regular sessions with target users throughout development.
+- **Security Testing:** Basic checks (OWASP Top 10 awareness), dependency scanning, secure handling of secrets/tokens (rely on `fastapi-users` security practices).
+- **Manual Testing:** Exploratory testing, edge case validation, testing diverse OCR inputs.
+
+### 10. Future Enhancements (Post-V1)
+
+- Advanced Cost Splitting (by item, percentage, unequal splits).
+- Payment Integration (Stripe Connect for settling debts).
+- Real-time Collaboration (WebSockets for instant updates).
+- Push Notifications (reminders for chores, expenses, list updates).
+- Advanced Chore Features (assignment algorithms, calendar view).
+- Enhanced OCR (handling more formats, potential fine-tuning).
+- User Profile Customization (avatars, etc., extending `fastapi-users` model).
+- Analytics Dashboard (spending insights, chore completion stats).
+- Recipe Integration / Pantry Inventory Tracking.
+
+### 11. Conclusion
+
+This project aims to deliver a modern, user-friendly PWA that effectively addresses common household coordination challenges. By combining collaborative list management, intelligent OCR, traceable expense splitting, and flexible chore tracking with a robust offline-first PWA architecture built on **Vue.js, Pinia, Valerie UI, and FastAPI with `fastapi-users`**, the application will provide significant value to roommates, families, and other shared living groups. The focus on a well-defined V1, traceable data, and a solid technical foundation sets the stage for future growth and feature expansion.
