Foundation for the AI chatbot + text generation feature. Phase 1 is infrastructure only: driver plumbing, configuration storage with encrypted API keys, global vs per-company resolution, admin + company UI pages, and an optional installer wizard step. The chat assistant and text-generation WYSIWYG integration come in later phases.
**Driver plumbing (app/Support/Ai/)** — AiDriver abstract, AiDriverFactory, AiException, AiChatResponse DTO, OpenRouterDriver concrete implementation. OpenRouter is the OpenAI-compatible aggregator that unlocks hundreds of models behind one API key and one request shape — ideal as the default v1 driver. Drivers are extensible the same way exchange rate drivers are: the module Registry's generic registerDriver('ai', ...) machinery plus a typed Registry::registerAiDriver() convenience wrapper (shipped in the upstream invoiceshelf/modules package in a paired commit).
**AiConfigurationService** — mirrors MailConfigurationService shape but with one deliberate deviation: API keys are encrypted at the service layer via Crypt::encryptString before persistence. OpenRouter bearer tokens have much bigger blast radius than SMTP passwords. Same settings / company_settings tables, same global-vs-per-company pattern, same use_custom_ai_config override toggle. Resolution order: global ai_enabled must be YES, then the company either overrides via use_custom_ai_config=YES (and can opt out with ai_enabled=NO inside the override) or inherits the global config.
**Controllers** — Admin/Settings/AiConfigurationController (global CRUD + driver list + test connection), Company/Settings/CompanyAiConfigurationController (per-company override + test), Setup/AiConfigurationController (installer wizard step, skippable with explicit ai_enabled=NO). API key is always masked as '********' in GET responses — the frontend submits the placeholder back on save and the backend preserves the stored value.
**Installer wizard** — new optional step 7 'AI' between Mail and Account. Default OFF with a Skip button. MailView.vue now routes to installation.ai instead of installation.account; installation.ai then routes to installation.account. Step order comment updated in routes.ts.
**Admin + Company settings pages** — AdminAiConfigView (no toggle, always global) and AiConfigView (with use_custom_ai_config BaseSwitchSection that auto-saves OFF). Both share AiConfigurationForm which renders the driver selector, API key input with show/hide, driver-specific config_fields (base_url for OpenRouter), and per-role enable toggles with free-text model inputs backed by a datalist of suggested models from driver metadata.
**Bootstrap endpoint** — adds an ai block to the response: { enabled, chat_enabled, text_generation_enabled }. All three are booleans resolved through AiConfigurationService::resolveForCompany(). Never leaks the API key. Frontend feature flags read from bootstrapData.ai to decide whether to show Phase 2/3 UI.
**Bouncer ability** 'manage ai config' added to SettingsPolicy, gated on isSuperAdmin() (same pattern as manage email config, manage pdf config).
**Tests** (22 new) — Unit: AiDriverFactory resolves built-in + Registry-contributed drivers, rejects unknown, merges availableDrivers. AiConfigurationService: encryption round-trip, resolution order (3 cases: global off, inherit global, override with company key, override with opt-out), makeDriver null/instance cases, listDrivers metadata. Feature: admin save + read with api key masking, preserve-on-placeholder behavior, company toggle ON/OFF semantics, bootstrap ai flags reflect resolution, company opt-out path.
372 tests pass (was 350, +22). Pint clean. npm run build clean. Phase 2 (chat assistant + tool calling) and Phase 3 (WYSIWYG text generation popup) are separate follow-up commits — this one is the foundation only.
The app/Services/ directory had grown into 22 flat files at the root plus 7 uneven subdirectories — finding anything required scrolling through an alphabetical mix of small CRUD services, infrastructure drivers, and install-time utilities. This commit groups services by domain, folds Backup into a new Storage namespace, and moves framework-infrastructure and install-time helpers out of Services and into Support where they belong.
New Services layout: Documents/ (Invoice, Estimate, RecurringInvoice, Payment, Expense, Transaction, DocumentItem, SerialNumber, Currency — matches the 'Documents' navigation group); Company/ (Company, Member, Invitation); Mail/ (MailConfiguration, CompanyMailConfig); Storage/ (FileDisk, plus Backup folded in). ExchangeRateProviderService moves next to its drivers in ExchangeRate/; FontService moves into Pdf/ where it belongs. CustomerService, ItemService, CustomFieldService stay at the Services root as standalone single-file domains.
Moves to Support/: Hashids/ (library wrapper — not business logic); Setup/ (one-shot install-time utilities — stateless helpers); Pdf/ (ImageUtils, PdfTemplateUtils, plus the existing PdfHtmlSanitizer consolidated into the same subdir). These are all framework infrastructure and stateless utilities — the 'service' label never really fit them.
Namespace declarations in 29 moved files updated to match new paths. 62 consumer files (controllers, other services, tests, database factories, seeders, routes, bootstrap/providers.php) have their use statements rewritten via a literal-string replacement script — no regex meant no risk of half-matching. Three Documents services needed an explicit 'use App\Services\Mail\CompanyMailConfigService' added because the same-namespace short reference they relied on no longer resolves after the split.
Verified: composer dump-autoload, 350 tests pass (850 assertions), vendor/bin/pint clean, npm run build succeeds.
Major changes to the file disk subsystem:
- Each FileDisk now gets a unique Laravel disk name (disk_{id}) instead
of temp_{driver}, fixing the bug where multiple local disks with
different roots overwrote each other's config.
- Move disk registration logic from FileDisk model to FileDiskService
(registerDisk, getDiskName). Model keeps only getDecodedCredentials
and a deprecated setConfig() wrapper.
- Add Disk Assignments admin UI (File Disk tab) with three purpose
dropdowns: Media Storage, PDF Storage, Backup Storage. Stored as
settings (media_disk_id, pdf_disk_id, backup_disk_id).
- Backup tab now uses the assigned backup disk instead of a per-backup
dropdown. BackupsController refactored to use BackupService which
centralizes disk resolution. Removed stale 4-second cache.
- Add local_public disk to config/filesystems.php so system disks
are properly defined.
- Local disk roots stored relative to storage/app/ with hint text
in the admin modal explaining the convention.
- Fix BaseModal watchEffect -> watch to prevent infinite request
loops on the File Disk page.
- Fix string/number comparison for disk purpose IDs from settings.
- Add safeguards: prevent deleting disks with files, warn on
purpose change, prevent deleting system disks.
Spatie Media Library now uses the default FileDisk (local_private) for
new uploads instead of the public disk. Expense receipts are no longer
directly web-accessible.
- AppServiceProvider configures media-library disk from FileDisk on boot
- Change media-library fallback from 'public' to 'local'
- Expense receipt URL accessor returns authenticated route instead of
direct file URL
- Add registerMediaCollections() to Expense model
- Prevent deleting FileDisk that contains files or is a system disk
- Add media:secure command to migrate existing receipts to private disk
Fixes#187
V1/Admin -> Company (company-scoped controllers)
V1/SuperAdmin -> Admin (platform-wide admin controllers)
V1/Customer -> CustomerPortal (customer-facing portal)
V1/Installation -> Setup (installation wizard)
V1/PDF -> Pdf (consistent casing)
V1/Modules -> Modules (drop V1 prefix)
V1/Webhook -> Webhook (drop V1 prefix)
The V1 prefix served no purpose - API versioning is in the route prefix
(/api/v1/), not the controller namespace. "Admin" was misleading for
company-scoped controllers. "SuperAdmin" is now simply "Admin" for
platform administration.
