 6. **Deviations vom Leitentscheidungs-Rahmen**: bisher keine. Wird ergänzt, falls während der Umsetzung ein konkreter Grund für eine Abweichung von NestJS/Prisma/Next.js/Tailwind/shadcn/TanStack Query auftritt.
 7. **Dokumentenspeicher als lokales Volume (Modul 29)**: `DocumentsModule` speichert Uploads unterhalb von `DOCUMENTS_STORAGE_PATH` auf dem lokalen Dateisystem des Backend-Pods, keine Objektspeicher-Anbindung (S3-kompatibel o.ä.) im MVP/v1.x. Der Pfad ist über die ConfigMap austauschbar, wie in Abschnitt 27 des Lastenhefts vorgesehen. Wichtig für den Betrieb: das aktuelle `deploy/k8s`-Deployment läuft mit `replicas: 2` ohne geteiltes Volume – für konsistente Uploads über beide Pods hinweg muss vor Produktivbetrieb mit Dokumenten-Feature ein `ReadWriteMany`-PVC (z.B. NFS- oder EFS-basiert) gemountet und `DOCUMENTS_STORAGE_PATH` darauf gesetzt werden, sonst sieht nur der Pod, der die Datei entgegengenommen hat, sie auch beim Download wieder.
 8. **Entra ID SSO ohne Auto-Provisioning**: `POST/GET /api/v1/auth/sso/*` implementiert Authorization Code + PKCE gegen Entra ID über `openid-client`. Der E-Mail-Claim aus dem ID-Token wird ausschließlich gegen einen bereits existierenden, aktiven `User`-Datensatz gematcht – es wird kein neuer Benutzer automatisch angelegt (Just-in-Time-Provisioning), passend zum bestehenden Modell, dass Admins Benutzer manuell anlegen. Eine erfolgreiche SSO-Anmeldung überspringt die App-eigene TOTP-MFA-Abfrage, da der Identity Provider bereits eine eigene (typischerweise stärkere) Authentifizierung durchgesetzt hat. Der PKCE-`code_verifier` wird kurzlebig (5 min) in einem httpOnly-`SameSite=Lax`-Cookie zwischengespeichert statt serverseitig, damit der Flow ohne Sticky-Sessions über mehrere Backend-Replicas hinweg funktioniert; der Rückweg vom Callback zum Frontend nutzt ein kurzlebiges (60 s), zweckgebundenes JWT statt des echten Access-Tokens in der Redirect-URL. `OIDC_ISSUER_URL`/`OIDC_CLIENT_ID`/`OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET`/`OIDC_REDIRECT_URI` kommen ausschließlich aus Environment-Variablen; fehlen sie, meldet `GET /api/v1/auth/sso/status` `enabled: false` und die Login-Seite blendet den "Mit Microsoft anmelden"-Button aus, statt beim Start zu scheitern.
-9. **M365-Kalender-Synchronisation als einseitiger, asynchroner Push**: Abschnitt 4.25 verlangt nur einen internen Betriebskalender, keine externe Anbindung – diese Funktion ist eine reine Erweiterung ohne Lastenheft-Vorgabe. Umgesetzt als `CalendarSyncModule` (`ApiCore-Backend/src/calendar-sync/`): App-only Graph-API-Zugriff per Client-Credentials-Flow (`GraphClientService`) statt delegierter Anmeldung, da die Synchronisation unbeaufsichtigt im Hintergrund laufen muss und nicht an eine interaktive Benutzersitzung gebunden sein darf. Nutzt bewusst dieselbe Entra-App-Registrierung wie das SSO-Login (`OIDC_ISSUER_URL`/`OIDC_CLIENT_ID`/`OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET`, ausschließlich Env-Variablen) statt einer zweiten, separaten App-Registrierung – ein Enterprise-App-Objekt im Tenant genügt, sofern es zusätzlich zu den delegierten Login-Scopes auch die Application-Permission „Calendars.ReadWrite“ (Admin-Consent) erhält; die Tenant-ID wird dafür aus dem Pfad von `OIDC_ISSUER_URL` abgeleitet, statt eine weitere Konfigurationsvariable zu benötigen. Die Übertragung ist bewusst nur einseitig (ApiCore → M365-Gruppenkalender, adressiert über `groupId`); Änderungen, die direkt im M365-Kalender vorgenommen werden, fließen nicht zurück. Statt eines synchronen Push im Request-Pfad (wie beim Webhooks-Modul) nutzt `CalendarSyncOutboxEntry` ein Outbox-Muster mit minütlichem `@Cron`-Worker: Graph-API-Aufrufe sind zu langsam/fehleranfällig (Token-Refresh, Drosselung, transiente 5xx), um eine Durchsicht-/Aufgaben-Erstellung darauf warten zu lassen; fehlgeschlagene Versuche werden bis zu 5-mal wiederholt, danach bleibt der Eintrag `FAILED` bis zu einem manuellen "Jetzt synchronisieren" oder einer erneuten Änderung des Quelldatensatzes. Pro Quelltyp (Aufgabe/Durchsicht/Behandlung/Fütterung/Ernte/Königinnen-Zuordnung) ist die Synchronisation einzeln über die GUI (Verwaltung > Automatisierung > Kalender-Sync) abschaltbar; Kalendereinträge werden als ganztägige Graph-Events (`isAllDay: true`) angelegt, um Zeitzonen-/Uhrzeit-Mehrdeutigkeiten zu vermeiden, da die zugrundeliegenden Fachdaten selbst keine Uhrzeit führen.

Die Outbox ist sicher bei mehreren Replicas: Jeder Eintrag wird vor der Arbeit per bedingtem Update (`claimedAt`) reserviert, ein Claim älter als 5 min gilt als verwaist und wird übernommen, Graph-Requests haben ein 30-s-Timeout. `revision` sorgt dafür, dass eine Änderung während des Syncs nicht verloren geht (Eintrag bleibt PENDING, dasselbe Event wird beim nächsten Lauf aktualisiert); ein Abbruch während des Syncs löscht das gerade geschriebene Event. Ein neues Graph-Event entsteht beim Aktualisieren nur, wenn das alte nicht mehr existiert (404/410); andere Fehler gelten als fehlgeschlagener Versuch. Jedes Anlegen schickt eine `transactionId` (aus Eintrag, Revision und ersetztem Event), damit Graph eine Wiederholung nach einem Timeout nicht doppelt anlegt; „Jetzt synchronisieren“ startet den Lauf im Hintergrund (202, `running` im Status) und setzt FAILED-Einträge auf PENDING zurück. `groupId` muss eine Entra-Objekt-ID (GUID) sein; `""` oder `null` löscht sie; sie wird in Graph-URLs kodiert. Fehler aus Prisma werden nur mit Name, Code und Modell geloggt (`src/common/loggable-error.ts`), nie mit Abfragewerten. **Offene Entscheidung (2026-10-12):** Laut Microsoft-Doku (`group-post-events`) unterstützt `POST /groups/{id}/events` keine Application-Permission, nur delegiertes `Group.ReadWrite.All`. Mit dem App-only-Token oben kann das Anlegen im Gruppenkalender deshalb in Produktion scheitern (nicht gegen einen echten Tenant geprüft). Auswege: Zielkalender auf ein Ressourcen- oder Benutzerpostfach umstellen (`/users/{upn}/calendar/events`, App-only erlaubt, per Application Access Policy begrenzt) oder delegierter Zugriff über ein Dienstkonto.

-10. **Wartezeit manuell statt aus Wirkstoff-Datenbank abgeleitet**: `Treatment.withdrawalPeriodDays` wird pro Behandlung von Hand eingetragen (laut Packungsbeilage des verwendeten Mittels), statt automatisch aus Produktname/Wirkstoff hergeleitet zu werden. Eine hartkodierte Zuordnung Produkt→Wartezeit wäre eine faktische, rechtlich relevante Behauptung über Tierarzneimittel-Zulassungen, die im Code weder aktuell gehalten noch verlässlich verifiziert werden kann; die Verantwortung für den korrekten Wert bleibt beim Imker. Die App warnt in der Ernte-Erfassung nur, wenn ein Wert hinterlegt wurde und dessen Fenster (`endDate ?? date` + `withdrawalPeriodDays`) noch nicht abgelaufen ist – sie blockiert die Ernte nicht hart, da Ernte-Datensätze auch nachträglich für bereits erfolgte, reale Ernten erfasst werden.

Der Client sendet je Vorgang einen `Idempotency-Key`; eine Wiederholung liefert die gespeicherte erste Antwort (`IdempotencyRecord`, 90 Tage). Bewusst kein globaler Interceptor, da gespeicherte Antworten sonst Geheimnisse (MFA-Setup, Tokens) enthalten könnten. Die Tabelle ist flüchtig und nicht Teil des Backups.

Idempotenz schützt nur, wenn nach dem Commit nichts mehr fehlschlägt: Darum laufen alle Seiteneffekte nach dem Commit (`AutomationService.evaluate*`, `CalendarSyncService.enqueue`/`cancel`, `WebhooksService.dispatch`) best-effort über `runAfterCommit` (`src/common/after-commit.ts`) – sie loggen auf Error-Level und werfen nie. Was das Schreiben verhindern muss (z. B. `generateNumber`, Validierung), wirft weiter. Doppelte Automatik-Aufgaben verhindert eine Zeilensperre auf der Regel (`SELECT … FOR UPDATE`). Dauerhaft zugestellte Seiteneffekte bringt erst das Ereignis-Rückgrat (Spec `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-10-12-plattform-rueckgrat-und-fahrplan-design.md`).

Die Tagesrate wird bei jeder Korrektur einer Eingangsgröße (Methode, Anzahl, Dauer) neu berechnet; ein mitgesendeter, vom gespeicherten abweichender Wert gilt als manuell gesetzt und gewinnt.
 14. **API-Schlüssel für Maschinen-Zugriffe**: Integrationen (Wabenhain-Shop) nutzen einen Schlüssel `ack_…` im `Authorization: Bearer`-Header statt eines Service-Kontos mit Passwort. Gespeichert wird nur der SHA-256-Hash (32 Zufallsbytes, daher kein langsamer KDF nötig); der Klartext erscheint einmal bei der Erstellung. Ein Schlüssel ist kein Benutzer: `JwtAuthGuard` setzt `request.apiKey` statt `request.user`, `PermissionsGuard` lässt ihn nur auf Routen, deren Berechtigung in seinen Scopes steht – `@AnyAuthenticatedUser`-Routen nie. Erlaubte Scopes sind eine kurze Allowlist (`api-keys/api-key-scopes.ts`: `shop-sync:read`, `shop-sync:write`, `erp-inventory:read`); je angebundenem System ein eigener Schlüssel. Verwaltung mit `api-keys:manage`. Schlüssel sind bewusst nicht Teil des Backups: nach einer Wiederherstellung wird ein neuer Schlüssel ausgestellt.
 13. **Lebende vs. beendete Völker**: Nur `DISSOLVED`, `SOLD`, `DECEASED`, `MERGED` sperren Umsetzen/Teilen/Vereinigen/Königinzuweisung (`colonies/colony-status.ts`). `WEAK`, `CONSPICUOUS`, `QUEENLESS` bleiben bearbeitbar.
 15. **Bestandsbuch aus Behandlungen, nicht als eigenes Register**: Das Bestandsbuch nach Art. 108 VO (EU) 2019/6 wird aus `Treatment` erzeugt (`export/treatment-log.ts`); Lieferant, Erwerbsbeleg und verschreibender Tierarzt sind Freitextfelder der Behandlung, Name/Anschrift des Halters liegen in `SiteSettings`. Der Stand am Behandlungstag wird beim Anlegen als `Treatment.apiaryId` festgehalten (Umsetzen ändert ihn nicht nachträglich); für Altbestand wird er aus `ColonyApiaryHistory` abgeleitet und im PDF bei Unsicherheit markiert. Fehlende Pflichtangaben werden als „FEHLT“ gedruckt statt still weggelassen. Keine Wartezeit-Automatik (siehe 10).

 17. **Schutz gegen Rechteausweitung in der Benutzerverwaltung**: Wer Benutzer pflegt, darf nur Konten verwalten (Passwort/MFA zurücksetzen, E-Mail ändern, (de)aktivieren) und Rollen vergeben, deren Rechte er selbst vollständig hat (`UsersService.assertWithinCallerPermissions`), analog zur Rollenbearbeitung.
 18. **SSO-Bindung an die IdP-Identität**: Die erste Microsoft-Anmeldung bindet das Konto an `"<iss>|<oid>"` (`User.ssoSubject`); danach zählt nur noch diese Identität, nicht der unverifizierte E-Mail-Claim. Mandantenübergreifende Issuer (`common`/`organizations`/`consumers`) schalten SSO ab. E-Mails werden ohne Groß-/Kleinschreibung verglichen.

Umgesetzt über `PartialType(..., { skipNullProperties: false })` in den Update-DTOs, `@IsOptionalNotNull()` (`src/common/validation/is-optional-not-null.ts`) für weglassbare, aber nicht leerbare Felder und `optionalDate()` (`src/common/patch-values.ts`) für leerbare Datumsfelder; `update-dto-null-handling.spec.ts` hält den Vertrag je DTO fest. Das Frontend sendet geleerte optionale Felder über `emptyToNull` (`ApiCore-Frontend/src/lib/forms/empty-to-null.ts`) als `null`.

Backend-Abfragen filtern über `LIVING_COLONY_WHERE` (`colonies/colony-status.ts`), das Frontend über `isLivingColony` (`lib/colonies/status.ts`); `status = ACTIVE` steht nur dort, wo wirklich genau dieser Status gemeint ist.

 **Datensicherung:** Seit der Entscheidung, PostgreSQL selbst im Cluster zu betreiben (siehe CLAUDE.md), liegt die Backup-Verantwortung bei diesem Projekt, nicht mehr bei einem externen Cluster-/DBA-Betrieb. Umgesetzt als anwendungsseitiges `BackupModule` (`ApiCore-Backend/src/backup/`) statt der ursprünglich hier vorgesehenen reinen `pg_dump`/PITR-Strategie:
 
-- **Export/Import:** `BackupService.exportAll()`/`.importAll()` sichert wirklich alle Modelle (Betriebsdaten, Benutzer/Rollen/Rechte, Audit-Log, hochgeladene Dokumente inkl. Dateiinhalt als Base64) als eine versionierte JSON-Datei; Import ist upsert-basiert (Rollen/Berechtigungen über `key`/`resource+action` statt roher `id`, damit ein Restore auch in ein anderes Deployment funktioniert) und läuft in einer einzigen `$transaction`.
+- **Export/Import:** `BackupService.exportAll()`/`.importAll()` sichert alle fachlichen und Konfigurationsmodelle (Betriebsdaten inkl. Herstellung, Rohstoffe, Bewegungsbuch und Shop-Anfragen, Nummernkreise, Benutzer/Rollen/Rechte, Audit-Log, Website-/Backup-/Kalender-Einstellungen samt Kalender-Outbox, hochgeladene Dokumente inkl. Dateiinhalt als Base64) als eine versionierte JSON-Datei (Bundle-Version 3; ältere Bundles bleiben einspielbar). Bewusst ausgenommen sind nur Permission (Katalog aus dem Code), RefreshToken, ConsumedToken, ApiKey (Annahme 14) und IdempotencyRecord (Annahme 11); die Liste mit Begründung steht in `MODELS_EXCLUDED_FROM_BACKUP`, ein Test erzwingt sie für jedes neue Prisma-Modell. Import ist upsert-basiert (Rollen/Berechtigungen über `key`/`resource+action` statt roher `id`, damit ein Restore auch in ein anderes Deployment funktioniert) und läuft in einer einzigen `$transaction`.
 - **Automatischer Zeitplan:** `BackupSchedulerService` registriert einen `@nestjs/schedule`-Cron-Job, der die Bundle-Datei periodisch auf `BACKUP_STORAGE_PATH` schreibt und alte Stände nach `BACKUP_RETENTION_COUNT` rotiert. Pfad/Zeitplan/Aufbewahrung sind sowohl per Env-Variable als auch über die GUI (Verwaltung > Backup) konfigurierbar – eine gesetzte Env-Variable hat dabei immer Vorrang vor dem GUI-Wert. Bei `replicas: 2` verhindert ein Datei-Mtime-Guard (kein DB-Lock nötig), dass beide Pods im selben Tick doppelt sichern; ohne gesetzten Pfad bleibt der Zeitplan inaktiv, manueller Export/Import über die UI funktioniert davon unabhängig immer.
-- **Restore:** Über `POST /backup/import` (bzw. den Import-Dialog unter Verwaltung > Backup) eine zuvor exportierte Bundle-Datei einspielen.
+- **Restore:** Über `POST /backup/import` (bzw. den Import-Dialog unter Verwaltung > Backup) eine zuvor exportierte Bundle-Datei einspielen. Import-Limit `BACKUP_MAX_IMPORT_BYTES` (Standard 50 MB, höchstens 256 MB, weil der Upload vollständig im RAM des 512-Mi-Pods verarbeitet wird); Export und Zeitplan prüfen jede Sicherung dagegen und warnen in Log und UI (Verwaltung > Backup), bevor eine Datei entsteht, die sich im Notfall nicht mehr einspielen ließe.
 
 Ein rohes `pg_dump`/PITR-Backup auf Infrastrukturebene bleibt als zusätzliche, komplementäre Absicherung für den Katastrophenfall (z. B. korrupte Datenbankdateien, nicht nur fachliche Daten) sinnvoll, ist aber nicht mehr der primäre, hier dokumentierte Mechanismus – die in-App-Lösung deckt den fachlichen Anwendungsfall "Daten sichern/übertragen" bereits vollständig ab.
