emileriksenkeev gives Mike a shared legal library

This fork turns common reference material into a workspace-wide resource instead of leaving it scattered across individual matters.

knowledge-managementdrafting

The new shared library is a dedicated home for material the whole organisation may need, with starter folders for templates, corporate documents, policies and compliance material, and signed agreements. It sits outside ordinary project lists, but signed-in users can access it across the workspace.

Chat can draw on library documents when preparing grounded drafts.
Document selection screens can now browse shared-library and entity records alongside project files.

That makes the library feel like a real working surface, with its own navigation and context, rather than a disguised project folder.

So what Legal teams building repeatable drafting and review workflows should care: the fork makes approved source material easier to find and use across matters.

`d25266c7`	Syd OS: the Vault - org-wide shared library with cross-project access	emileriksenkeev	2026-07-11	↗ GitHub
commit body - projects.is_vault flag; Vault project seeded (folders: Templates, Corporate Documents, Policies & Compliance, Signed Agreements), shared org-wide via access bypass (any authenticated user) - lib/vault.ts: getVaultProject, listVaultDocuments, copyVaultDocToProject (active-version bytes, formatting preserved, auto-embed of the copy) - Assistant tools in every project chat: list_vault_documents + copy_from_vault (copy in, then redline the copy); system-prompt guidance - GET /projects/vault-info (registered before /:projectId) - Frontend: Vault in the sidebar (Archive icon), /vault route rendering the standard project surface (documents/assistant/reviews/wiki all work) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`58455774`	Syd OS: hide the Vault from project lists - it lives solely as the sidebar nav item	emileriksenkeev	2026-07-11	↗ GitHub

`f64fa799`	Syd OS: make the Vault a first-class surface (not a project)	emileriksenkeev	2026-07-11	↗ GitHub
commit body - Excluded from project lists (is_vault=false filter on own + shared queries) - ProjectPage: basePath prop so the Vault's tab nav stays on /vault (not /projects/<uuid>); header is vault-aware - breadcrumb root is 'Vault', no Projects crumb, no rename/CM-number chrome, proper tab labels incl. Wiki - MikeProject.is_vault type; vault page passes basePath=/vault Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`15dd519c`	Vault-grounded drafting: reach the Vault from any chat	emileriksenkeev	2026-07-12	↗ GitHub
commit body Add read-only Vault access to the assistant so drafting grounds in real templates/precedents and entity particulars instead of placeholders. - vault.ts: searchVault() (semantic search scoped to the Vault project) and readVaultDocument() (full text by id, OCR-aware) - no project copy needed. - chatTools.ts: new search_vault + read_vault_document tools in a shared VAULT_TOOLS array (list_vault_documents moved in); spread into PROJECT_EXTRA_TOOLS; dispatch handlers added. Rewrote WHEN DRAFTING to be Vault-first (find a precedent, pull real party details, only bracket what is genuinely unknown) and softened the answer-from-knowledge default. - chat.ts: pass VAULT_TOOLS to the global (projectless) chat so the Vault is reachable everywhere, not just inside a project.

`8a48e84f`	feat(picker): browse Vault and entity docs in document pickers	emileriksenkeev	2026-07-14	↗ GitHub
commit body The Add Documents modal and the new-tabular-review picker only listed regular projects (GET /projects excludes is_vault/is_entity), so reviews couldn't select Vault or entity documents through the UI. - useDirectoryData: extract a shared fetchDirectoryData() that also resolves /projects/vault-info and /projects/entities, loads their documents best-effort, and appends them after the regular projects. GET /projects itself is unchanged. - AddNewTRModal: reuse fetchDirectoryData() instead of its own duplicate directory fetch. - backend GET /projects/:projectId: allow org-wide read of vault/entity projects (aligns with checkProjectAccess) so non-owners can browse their documents. - backend listAccessibleProjectIds: include vault/entity project ids so filterAccessibleDocumentIds and review scoping accept their documents for every authenticated user, not just the owner.
