+# Cleanuparr - Claude AI Rules
+
+## Rules
+
+1. **DO NOT break existing functionality** - All features are critical and must continue to work
+2. **When in doubt, ASK** - Don't assume, clarify with the maintainer first
+3. **Always read existing code before making changes** - Understand the current architecture and patterns
+4. **Follow existing patterns** - Study the codebase style and match it exactly
+5. **Ask before introducing new patterns** - Use current coding standards or get approval first
+6. **Prefer editing existing files over creating new ones** - Build on existing work
+7. **Flag potential gotchas or issues immediately** - Document and report anything unexpected
+8. **If unsure about an approach, ask before implementing**
+
+## Project Overview
+
+Cleanuparr is a tool for automating the cleanup of unwanted or blocked files in Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Readarr, Whisparr and supported download clients (qBittorrent, Transmission, Deluge, uTorrent, rTorrent). It provides malware protection, automated cleanup, and queue management for *arr applications.
+
+**Key Features:**
+- Strike system for bad downloads
+- Malware detection and blocking
+- Automatic search triggering after removal (Seeker)
+- Missing and upgrade search
+- Orphaned download cleanup with cross-seed support
+- Authentication (OIDC, 2FA)
+- Notification providers (Apprise, Discord, Gotify, Notifiarr, Ntfy, Pushover, Telegram)
+
+## Architecture & Tech Stack
+
+### Backend
+- **.NET 10.0** (C#) with ASP.NET Core
+- **Architecture**: Clean Architecture with `Features/` subdirectory pattern
+  - `Cleanuparr.Api` - REST API and web host (`Features/` for endpoint groups)
+  - `Cleanuparr.Application` - Application services and use cases
+  - `Cleanuparr.Domain` - Domain models (Entities, Enums, Exceptions)
+  - `Cleanuparr.Infrastructure` - External integrations (`Features/` for Arr, DownloadClient, Notifications, etc.)
+  - `Cleanuparr.Persistence` - Data access with EF Core (SQLite)
+  - `Cleanuparr.Shared` - Shared utilities
+- **Database**: SQLite with Entity Framework Core
+  - Three separate contexts: `DataContext`, `EventsContext`, `UsersContext`
+- **Key Libraries**:
+  - MassTransit (messaging)
+  - Quartz.NET (scheduling)
+  - Serilog (logging)
+  - SignalR (real-time communication)
+- **Testing**: xUnit + NSubstitute + Shouldly
+  - Always use **NSubstitute** for mocking in new tests (Moq is being phased out)
+
+### Frontend
+- **Angular 21** with TypeScript 5.9 (standalone components, zoneless, OnPush)
+- **UI**: Custom glassmorphism design system with 33 custom components — no external UI frameworks
+- **Icons**: @ng-icons/core + @ng-icons/tabler-icons
+- **Design System**: 3-layer SCSS (`_variables` -> `_tokens` -> `_themes`), dark/light themes
+- **State Management**: @ngrx/signals (Angular signals-based)
+- **Real-time Updates**: @microsoft/signalr 10.0.0
+- **PWA**: Service Worker support enabled

+```
+
+## Code Standards & Conventions
+
+**IMPORTANT:** Always study existing code in the relevant area before making changes. Match the existing style exactly.
+
+### Backend (C#)
+- Follow Microsoft C# Coding Conventions
+- Use nullable reference types (`<Nullable>enable</Nullable>`)
+- Add XML documentation comments for public APIs
+- Use meaningful names - avoid abbreviations unless widely understood
+- Keep services focused - single responsibility principle
+- New integrations go under `Features/` subdirectories (e.g., `Infrastructure/Features/Arr/`)
+
+### Frontend (TypeScript/Angular)
+- All components must be **standalone** with **ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush**
+- Use `input()` / `output()` function APIs (not `@Input()` / `@Output()` decorators)
+- Use Angular **signals** for reactive state (`signal()`, `computed()`, `effect()`)
+- Follow the 3-layer SCSS design system (`_variables` -> `_tokens` -> `_themes`)
+- **Do not introduce external UI frameworks** (no PrimeNG, Material, Tailwind, etc.)
+- Component naming: `{feature}.component.ts`
+- Service naming: `{feature}.service.ts`
+- **Look at similar existing components before creating new ones**
+
+### Testing
+- **Backend**: xUnit + NSubstitute + Shouldly
+- Always use **NSubstitute** for mocking (Moq is being phased out)
+- Write unit tests for new features and bug fixes
+- Use descriptive test names that explain what is being tested
+- No frontend unit tests currently
+
+### Git Commit Messages
+- Use clear, descriptive messages in imperative mood
+- Examples: "Add Discord notification support", "Fix memory leak in download client polling"
+- Reference issue numbers when applicable: "Fix #123: Handle null response from Radarr API"
+
+## Development Setup
+
+### Running the Backend
+```bash
+cd code/backend
+dotnet build Cleanuparr.Api/Cleanuparr.Api.csproj
+dotnet run --project Cleanuparr.Api/Cleanuparr.Api.csproj
+```
+API runs at http://localhost:5000
+
+### Running the Frontend
+```bash
+cd code/frontend
+npm install
+npm start
+```
+UI runs at http://localhost:4200
+
+### Running Tests
+```bash
+cd code/backend
+dotnet test
+```
+
+## Database Migrations
+
+Three separate database contexts, all commands run from the `code` directory:
+
+```bash
+# Data migrations (DataContext)
+make migrate-data name=YourMigrationName
+
+# Events migrations (EventsContext)
+make migrate-events name=YourMigrationName
+
+# Users migrations (UsersContext)
+make migrate-users name=YourMigrationName
+```
+
+## Common Development Workflows
+
+### Adding a New *arr Application Integration
+1. Add integration in `Cleanuparr.Infrastructure/Features/Arr/`
+2. Update domain models in `Cleanuparr.Domain/`
+3. Create/update services in `Cleanuparr.Application/`
+4. Add API endpoints in `Cleanuparr.Api/Features/Arr/`
+5. Update frontend in `code/frontend/src/app/`
+
+### Adding a New Download Client
+1. Add client implementation in `Cleanuparr.Infrastructure/Features/DownloadClient/`
+2. Follow existing patterns (qBittorrent, Transmission, etc.)
+3. Add configuration models to `Cleanuparr.Domain/`
+4. Update API and frontend as above
+
+### Adding a New Notification Provider
+1. Add provider in `Cleanuparr.Infrastructure/Features/Notifications/`
+2. Update configuration models
+3. Add UI configuration in frontend
+
+## Key Gotchas
+
+- **Custom glassmorphism design system** - Do not introduce external UI frameworks (no PrimeNG, Material, Tailwind)
+- **All frontend components** must be standalone with OnPush change detection
+- **Database migrations** require awareness of all three contexts (Data, Events, Users)
+- **Malware blocker** is a critical security feature - changes require careful testing
+- **Cross-seed integration** allows keeping torrents that are actively seeding
+- **Real-time updates** use SignalR - maintain websocket patterns when adding features
+- Use `@ng-icons/core` + `@ng-icons/tabler-icons` for icons (NOT `angular-tabler-icons` which doesn't support Angular 21)
+- **Sidebar** stays dark purple in both themes - uses sidebar-specific CSS variables
+- The project uses **Clean Architecture** - respect layer boundaries
+- **Settings dirty tracking** uses JSON snapshot comparison (`buildSnapshot()` + `hasPendingChanges()`)

+# Contributing to Cleanuparr
+
+Thanks for your interest in contributing to Cleanuparr! This guide will help you get started with development.
+
+## Before You Start
+
+### AI usage
+
+In this ever-evolving field of work, AI is now the shiny new tool to help programmers work faster and there's nothing wrong with that.
+But it is **very** wrong to rely solely on AI tools to write, review and test your code.
+
+**If you do not have a background in programming and you do not intend to test your code properly, please do not submit AI-generated code.** If you still want to help in other ways such as testing features, that would also help a lot!
+
+### Announce Your Intent
+
+Before starting any work, please let us know what you want to contribute:
+
+- For existing issues: Comment on the issue stating you'd like to work on it
+- For new features/changes: Create a new issue first and mention that you want to work on it
+
+This helps us avoid redundant work, git conflicts, and contributions that may not align with the project's direction.
+
+**Wait for approval from the maintainers before proceeding with your contribution.**
+
+## Development Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- [.NET 10.0 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/10.0)
+- [Node.js 18+](https://nodejs.org/)
+- [Git](https://git-scm.com/)
+- (Optional) [Make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/) for database migrations
+- (Optional) IDE: [JetBrains Rider](https://www.jetbrains.com/rider/) or [Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/)
+
+### Repository Setup
+
+1. Fork the repository on GitHub
+2. Clone your fork locally:
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/Cleanuparr.git
+   cd Cleanuparr
+   ```
+3. Add the upstream repository:
+   ```bash
+   git remote add upstream https://github.com/Cleanuparr/Cleanuparr.git
+   ```
+
+## Backend Development
+
+### Initial Setup
+
+#### 1. Create a GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT)
+
+Cleanuparr uses GitHub Packages for NuGet dependencies. You'll need a PAT with `read:packages` permission:
+
+1. Go to [GitHub Settings > Developer Settings > Personal Access Tokens > Tokens (classic)](https://github.com/settings/tokens)
+2. Click "Generate new token" → "Generate new token (classic)"
+3. Give it a descriptive name (e.g., "Cleanuparr NuGet Access")
+4. Set an expiration (recommend 90 days or longer for development)
+5. Select only the `read:packages` scope
+6. Click "Generate token" and copy it
+
+#### 2. Configure NuGet Source
+
+Add the Cleanuparr NuGet repository:
+
+```bash
+dotnet nuget add source \
+  --username YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME \
+  --password YOUR_GITHUB_PAT \
+  --store-password-in-clear-text \
+  --name Cleanuparr \
+  https://nuget.pkg.github.com/Cleanuparr/index.json
+```
+
+Replace `YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME` and `YOUR_GITHUB_PAT` with your GitHub username and the PAT you created.
+
+### Running the Backend
+
+#### Option 1: Using .NET CLI
+
+Navigate to the backend directory:
+```bash
+cd code/backend
+```
+
+Build the application:
+```bash
+dotnet build Cleanuparr.Api/Cleanuparr.Api.csproj
+```
+
+Run the application:
+```bash
+dotnet run --project Cleanuparr.Api/Cleanuparr.Api.csproj
+```
+
+Run tests:
+```bash
+dotnet test
+```
+
+The API will be available at http://localhost:5000
+
+#### Option 2: Using an IDE
+
+For JetBrains Rider or Visual Studio:
+1. Open the solution file: `code/backend/cleanuparr.sln`
+2. Set `Cleanuparr.Api` as the startup project
+3. Press `F5` to start the application
+
+### Database Migrations

+Cleanuparr uses two separate database contexts: `DataContext` and `EventsContext`.
+
+#### Prerequisites
+
+Install Make if not already installed:
+- Windows: Install via [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/) (`choco install make`) or use [WSL](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/wsl/)
+- macOS: Install via Homebrew (`brew install make`)
+- Linux: Usually pre-installed, or install via package manager (`apt install make`, `yum install make`, etc.)
+
+#### Creating Migrations
+
+From the `code` directory:
+
+For data migrations (DataContext):
+```bash
+make migrate-data name=YourMigrationName
+```
+
+For events migrations (EventsContext):
+```bash
+make migrate-events name=YourMigrationName
+```
+
+Example:
+```bash
+make migrate-data name=AddUserPreferences
+make migrate-events name=AddAuditLogEvents
+```

-Cleanuparr is a tool for automating the cleanup of unwanted or blocked files in Sonarr, Radarr, and supported download clients like qBittorrent. It removes incomplete or blocked downloads, updates queues, and enforces blacklists or whitelists to manage file selection. After removing blocked content, Cleanuparr can also trigger a search to replace the deleted shows/movies.
+</div>
+
+Cleanuparr is an advanced download manager for the Servarr ecosystem. It works with Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Readarr, and Whisparr alongside download clients like qBittorrent, Transmission, and Deluge. Beyond cleaning up stalled, blocked, and malicious downloads, it searches for missing content and quality upgrades, manages seeding, and removes orphaned files.
 
 Cleanuparr was created primarily to address malicious files, such as `*.lnk` or `*.zipx`, that were getting stuck in Sonarr/Radarr and required manual intervention. Some of the reddit posts that made Cleanuparr come to life can be found [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/1gqnx16/psa_sonarr_downloaded_a_virus/), [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/1gqwklr/sonar_downloaded_a_mkv_file_which_looked_like_a/), [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/1gpw2wa/downloaded_waiting_to_import/) and [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/1gpi344/downloads_not_importing_no_files_found/).

+## 🤝 Contributing
 
-Think of **Cleanuparr** as the janitor of your server; it keeps your download queue spotless, removes clutter, and blocks malicious files. Now imagine combining that with **Huntarr**, the compulsive librarian who finds missing and upgradable media to complete your collection
+We welcome contributions from the community! Whether it's bug fixes, new features, documentation improvements, or testing, your help is appreciated.
 
-While **Huntarr** fills in the blanks and improves what you already have, **Cleanuparr** makes sure that only clean downloads get through. If you're aiming for a reliable and self-sufficient setup, **Cleanuparr** and **Huntarr** will take your automated media stack to another level.
+**Before contributing:** Please read our [Contributing Guide](CONTRIBUTING.md) and announce your intent to work on an issue before starting.
