# US05-04 — Verify, Retry, and Resolve Uncertain Uploads

Epic: [E05](../E05-immich-upload.md)

As a user, I want uncertain uploads verified before retry so a lost response cannot
create duplicate server assets.

## Acceptance criteria

- Retry policy distinguishes safe failures from accepted-but-unknown outcomes.
- Verification compares recorded local bytes with authoritative available evidence.
- Changed-after-upload bytes create a visible stale warning and block unsafe actions.
- Manual resolution records evidence and audit history; it never silently assumes success.

## Automated tests

- Fault tests cover timeout before acceptance, acceptance then lost response, parser
  uncertainty, safe retry, changed bytes, and repeated verification.
