# Photo Pipeline documentation
One local application that takes a photo library from discovery to a verified Immich
upload: duplicate detection, safety review, content analysis, album naming, guarded
renaming, upload, and archive — one visible, resume-safe workflow.
These pages are readable three ways, and they are the same files each time: in the
repository under `docs/`, on Gitea, and inside the running application under
**Docs**. There is no separate copy to fall out of date.
## Read in this order
1. [Overview](overview.md) — what the application does, the stages it moves a photo
through, and the rules it will not break.
2. [Installation and operations](installation.md) — host and container installation,
every setting, the first-run checklist, upgrades, backup and restore, and what
each refusal at startup means.
3. [Architecture](architecture.md) — the context and runtime diagrams, what each
module owns, the three journals a restart reads, and where every invariant is
enforced.
## Being written
The remaining manuals are accepted work, not aspiration; each is a story in
[E09](https://git.domverse-berlin.eu/domverse/photoanalyzer/src/branch/main/delivery_backlog/E09-documentation.md)
and will appear here as it lands.
- **User manual** — one page per workflow stage with screenshots of the real
application, and a catalogue of every error and refusal (US09-04).
## Conventions
A page tells you what a stage **changes on disk or on the server** before it tells
you how to run it. Refusals are documented as intentional: this application would
rather stop and explain than guess about somebody's photographs.
