Phase 4 foundation. A CvVariant is a lens over the master CareerProfile
(section order/visibility, per-item overrides keyed by ItemKey, theme +
builder settings) — it references career data, never duplicates it. One
renderer (ThemedCvRenderer) draws every theme; a theme is pure data
(CvThemeCatalog, 8 professional themes), so adding a theme needs no renderer
change. Autosave version history + non-destructive restore, public CV via
/api/public-cv/{slug} (anonymous, noindex, filter-bypassing owner load), and
an AI-assist endpoint reusing the existing provider abstraction (suggestions
only, never auto-applied).
- Models: CvVariant/CvVariantVersion, CvVariantSettings, CvTheme + catalog
- Services: CvVariantResolver (profile+lens -> render model), ThemedCvRenderer,
CvVariantService, CareerProfileService.LoadStructuredForOwnerAsync (public)
- API: CvVariantController (/api/cv), PublicCvController (/api/public-cv)
- Migration AddCvVariants (2 self-contained tables; verified applied on the
running container), 16 tests (resolver/renderer/service), 296 backend green

Phase 3, schema layer. Relational children of CareerProfile — the editable master
career profile. See docs/architecture/career-profile-model.md.
- New entities (Models/CareerEntities.cs): CareerExperience, CareerEducation,
CareerSkill, CareerProject, CareerCertification, CareerLanguage. Each carries
OwnerUserId (tenant filter), a stable ItemKey (carried from the blob so future
CV variants can reference items), and SortOrder. List fields persist as JSON
string columns via [NotMapped] accessors — plain TEXT, reconciler-friendly.
- CareerProfile gains typed child collections + a LongTailJson column (contact,
summary, interests, achievements, orgs, pubs, courses, custom sections,
metadata). ProfileJson becomes a derived projection for legacy read paths.
- DbContext: DbSets + tenant query filters + ordered indexes; FK/cascade by
convention via the typed collections.
- Migration hand-edited to add only the 6 new tables + LongTailJson; the
scaffolder re-emitted four reconciler-owned tables (AiWorkspaceNotes,
CareerProfiles, InterviewPrepNotes, CareerProfileVersions) which were stripped.
The regenerated snapshot now includes them, closing the drift. Verified against
a copy of the real dev DB: applies cleanly, no data loss.
Long tail (achievements/orgs/pubs/courses) starts as JSON; promotable to
relational later without a source-of-truth change. Source-of-truth flip stays
deferred; the blob is kept as a derived projection.

Unblocks the documented core workflow and closes the AI-service exposure,
without changing existing behaviour.
Job/JobApplication split (additive; see ADR-002):
- New Job entity (the opportunity) with owner-scoped query filter; nullable
JobApplication.JobId FK. Nothing reads Job yet.
- Migration AddJobEntityAndProspectStages, hand-edited to drop reconciler-owned
tables the scaffolder re-emitted; verified against the real dev DB.
Pipeline: 10 internal stages across three concerns kept separate —
PipelineStage (workflow) / PipelineGroup (UI: NotApplied/Active/Closed) /
PipelineCategory (analytics). Adds Saved/Interested/Preparing/Withdrawn;
keeps Waiting and Ghosted. Kanban shows 3 grouped columns; cards keep a stage
chip and full transitions; drag applies only safe transitions (never infers
Ghosted/Withdrawn).
DateApplied nullable + SavedAt. Cleared when leaving Applied so analytics stay
accurate; the discarded date is preserved as an AppliedDateCleared JobEvent.
AI service lockdown: no host port; private ai_internal network (backend is the
only other member); X-Ai-Service-Token required on all non-/health endpoints;
AI_SERVICE_TOKEN mandatory via compose. Verified backend-only against the live
stack.
Also carries two pre-existing working-tree files (views/ProfilePage.tsx,
views/CareerWorkspacePage.tsx) so the tree is clean for the branch integration.
Tests: +40 backend (247 total), +5 sidecar (16), +15 frontend.

Backlog item 1. The committed ModelSnapshot was empty/stale (21 lines, no
entities) -- `dotnet ef migrations add` scaffolded the whole database from
scratch against it, including the ASP.NET Identity tables, which have never
been created by a real EF migration in this repo (always provisioned via the
raw-SQL reconciler in StartupInitializationExtensions.cs -- see
EnsureIdentityTables' own comment). Applying that diff for real would throw
"table/column already exists" on every environment.
Fix: added migration 20260711181039_SyncModelSnapshot with an intentionally
empty Up()/Down() (see its doc comment) -- it only records itself in
__EFMigrationsHistory and regenerates the snapshot to match the live model,
so `dotnet ef migrations add` produces a real diff for the next schema
change instead of the whole database again. Verified zero side effects
against a copy of the dev DB (only inserts one history row) and against a
fresh empty DB (full migration + reconciler chain runs clean).
That fresh-DB verification surfaced a real, previously-undiscovered bug:
EnsureColumn/EnsureMySqlColumn calls for JobApplications/Correspondences/
Companies/Attachments ad-hoc columns all no-op on a truly fresh database
(the tables don't exist yet -- Migrate() creates them afterward), so a
brand-new deployment's first boot would be missing dozens of columns
(LastReminderEmailSentAt, RecruiterMessageDraft, salary fields, Correspondence
Provider/Subject/Channel/etc.) until the next restart. Also caught: my own b4
change (Correspondence.Provider backfill, already merged) had the same
unguarded-on-fresh-DB bug in isolation.
Fixed by promoting the schema-reconciliation helpers (Exec/HasTable/
HasColumn/EnsureColumn and their MySQL equivalents) from local functions to
class-level statics, extracting the ad-hoc-column blocks into
ReconcileCoreAppColumns/ReconcileCoreAppColumnsMySql, and calling them a
second time right after Migrate() succeeds (reusing the connection already
opened for the CoreSchemaReady check) -- idempotent, so free on every boot
except the first one, where it's now required. No inline logic changed,
pure extraction + one additional call site.
Also added Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design to JobTrackerApi.csproj
(dotnet-ef tooling requires it on the startup project since EF Core 6+;
previously only referenced by JobTrackerBackend, where the DbContext lives).
169/169 backend tests green. Verified live: full app boot against both a
fresh empty SQLite DB and a copy of the populated dev DB, both clean.
