Two prompt-only rules added to address follow-ups from #3: 1. Intra-scan dedup (new rule 4 in Correspondents section): when processing multiple docs from the same sender in one scan batch, reuse the correspondent name created earlier in the same session instead of letting each doc create a fresh alias. Triggered by paperless-AI creating 3 Praxis-Irle aliases in one batch (no native batch-context plumbing; best-effort via prompt). 2. Short-brand prefix match (extension of Fuzzy-Regel): if OCR name is a strict prefix of an existing correspondent (or vice-versa) and the first 2 brand tokens match, use the existing correspondent. Triggered by 'Hogan Lovells' creating a new correspondent despite 'Hogan Lovells International LLP' already existing. Deployed via push_system_prompt.py --apply, container restarted, both strings verified present in /app/data/.env (backup at .env.bak.20260521T092606). Effectiveness will be observed as multi-doc scans flow through.

Components
Paperless-ngx (deployment)
Compose lives in m/paperless (separate repo). That repo is the
deployment artifact — ~/paperless/ on mDock is its checkout. This repo
(m/mDMS) tracks the AI classification layer that sits on top of
Paperless-ngx (infra/paperless/SYSTEM_PROMPT.txt, the type/tag/
correspondent migration scripts, the audit pipeline).
Paperless-AI
Runs on mdock:3077 in front of Paperless-ngx (mdock:8777). Classifies
each ingested document into one of the 10 canonical types and ≤2 of the
13 canonical tags. The system prompt + the migration scripts in
infra/paperless/ are the source of truth — keep this repo and the
live Paperless-AI aidata/.env in sync.
Canon SMB bridge
infra/samba-canon/ is the host-network Samba 4.10 container on mDock
that the Canon MB5100 scans to. Files land in /mnt/mdms/inbox/ (NFS
from mTrueNAS) and Paperless polls every 60s. The two-stage inbox
(staging dir + age-gated mover) lives separately under ~/mdms-mover/
on mDock — see m/otto issue #438.
Data

consumers. Layout:
