fix(career): preserve edits during polling

Refresh extraction runs without reloading controlled profile fields. Keep stored-profile AI actions gated until pending edits are saved.

 - **Consequences:** rows/cards and contextual shortcuts open one responsive workspace; internal row controls remain independent; list state survives return; old application links still resolve. The former quick dialog remains in source for rollback until broader regression proves it can be safely deleted.

+## DEC-069 — Keep CV ingestion hybrid and isolate status polling
+
+- **Date:** 2026-08-15
+- **Decision:** Keep deterministic Python/library text extraction and OCR, pass extracted text through the existing Ollama-first normalization/classification routes, then validate/diff/review in C#. Poll extraction-run status independently from profile content and never replace unsaved editor state during background refresh.
+- **Reason/evidence:** the repository already implements the user-proposed Python → Ollama → structured-data flow. Python libraries are the correct boundary for PDF/DOCX/image decoding; Ollama adds value in semantic section recognition, but cannot safely or deterministically replace binary parsing. The observed reset was caused by full-profile polling, not controlled-input behavior.
+- **Alternatives considered:** send binary files directly to Ollama; remove deterministic repair/fallback logic; continue full-profile polling; auto-save on every poll. These reduce format coverage, factuality, review safety or user control.
+- **Consequences:** all career fields retain unsaved edits while processing status changes. AI reconstruction remains explicit, local-first and review-gated; accuracy work can be benchmarked per model without changing the ingestion boundary.
+- **User approval required:** No; this implements the requested behavior within the existing approved local-AI architecture.
+- **Reversible:** Rejoin run/profile loads, though that would restore the confirmed data-loss UX defect; no schema/config/data migration changed.

 - **Deployment status:** Gitea pull-request run 609 passed the complete CI job in 4m20s. Deploy was intentionally skipped because the workflow deploys only a `push` to `main`; live remains unchanged. No merge/deployment was performed directly, no production migrations were run and the AI operation worker remains disabled by default.
 - **Production status:** Unchanged and unverified. No provider/model call, model pull, external request or paid API occurred.
 - **Known regressions:** None found by automated/local browser checks. Jest still needs `--forceExit` and reports its existing open-handle notice. Email-provider/send tests are fake/local only; real delivery is not claimed. Current MAIL browser evidence is 1280×720 only because the browser surface could not resize or perform native Tab traversal. Interrupted attempts are aged after 15 minutes and notified without retry; the five-minute scan is unmeasured on a large ledger. Direct clean EF-only SQLite migration still hits the pre-existing historical blank-chain defect before later migrations; normal startup owns reconciliation. Cross-feature monthly AI usage accounting remains a rollout gap.

-- **Files currently modified:** notification model/popover/AppShell/App integration/tests/translations, Operations reuse and JOBS tracking.
-- **Commands already run:** notification/AppShell/Operations Jest 6/6 and production frontend build.
-- **Test results:** focused notification 6/6; focused JOBS frontend 8/8 and backend 9/9; production build passes. Repository-wide standalone TypeScript still reports pre-existing React Router test `future` props, one Testing Library option and ES target errors; application source added no error.
+- **Exact current task:** continue CAREER-002 with CV Builder editing and multi-page rendering rework, then run combined browser regression.
+- **Last completed step:** separated extraction-run polling from profile loading, added unsaved-state safety, and verified the existing Python/Ollama/C# hybrid ingestion contract.
