…ummary) CATEGORY_DIRS in the new pure data-categories module now feeds clearCategory, getDataSummary, and (next) the retention archive, so the archive can never back up a different file set than the delete removes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…lear Collects exactly the files clearCategory would remove (same top-level mtime cutoff, symlinks skipped), streams them into a STORE ZIP with a manifest, and enforces the fail-closed ordering: delete runs only after a confirmed delivery; cancel or any failure deletes nothing. Destination is an injected seam so Phase 2's scheduled cleanup reuses the same orchestration. 12 tests cover the cutoff semantics, ZIP round-trip, and every ordering branch.

Shared contract type + preload archiveDataCategory; the handler binds the orchestration to the real userData dir, the save-dialog sink, and clearCategory, and refuses non-archivable categories. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Archivable categories (captures, meetings, images - shared contract, same list the IPC handler enforces) get a per-row toggle; when on, the retention chips and All route through data:archive-clear: pick a destination, the ZIP is written, and only then does the delete run. Cancel or failure deletes nothing and says so. 5 UI tests cover the routing, gating, and fail-closed messaging. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

… folder, run now Off by default. Choosing a window reveals the folder picker (optional - no folder means a plain rolling window), a Run now button, and the last-run line; a failed run says plainly that nothing was deleted.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR adds manual archive-before-delete support for file-backed data categories and opt-in automatic capture cleanup. It adds streamed ZIP archives, fail-closed deletion, retention settings, IPC and preload APIs, renderer controls, shared category mappings, scheduler wiring, documentation, and tests. ChangesRetention backup and cleanup
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This PR adds archive-before-delete and scheduled cleanup, but the current deletion flow can remove files that were not included in the backup, creating a concrete permanent-data-loss risk. Merge should wait until archive and deletion use one immutable file set; initialization failures and the reported lint error also need attention.

Update the plan to match the shipped behavior.
Three statements no longer match this PR:
- Line 20 names the control "Back up & delete". The implemented control is a "Back up first" toggle next to the existing delete buttons, and the section name in the UI is "Data & privacy".
- Line 49 marks Phase 2 as "(next)" and line 51 describes it in future tense, but this PR implements the scheduler, the persisted setting, and the archive folder.
- Line 53 lists "30 / 60 / 90 days / forever". The implemented choices are Off, 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Use one immutable deletion set for archive and clear.
Line 173 collects files before the archive is delivered. Line 183 then calls clear, which recalculates the retention cutoff and starts deletion guards later. A file near the retention boundary can become eligible during staging or delivery and be deleted without inclusion in the ZIP. A full clear can also delete files created after collection.
Suspend producers before collection. Then delete exactly the collected paths, or pass one fixed cutoff through both operations. Add a regression test for a file that crosses the cutoff while archive delivery is pending.
As per coding guidelines, "Every approved behavior change must add a regression or integration test in the same change, covering branches, conditions, and error paths rather than deferring tests."

Unhandled dynamic imports of ./backup/retention-archive-ipc. Both call sites start a dynamic import and never attach a rejection handler. A module load failure then produces an unhandled promise rejection in the main process, and the retention feature is silently inert: no IPC channels and no scheduler.

Resolve the ESLint error on this effect.
ESLint reports react-hooks/set-state-in-effect as an error at line 72. An error-level rule fails the lint gate. Load both summaries through a single async loader and keep the state update inside the awaited callback, or add a narrowly scoped disable with a justification if the pattern is intentional here.

[error] 72-72: Error: Calling setState synchronously within an effect can trigger cascading renders
Effects are intended to synchronize state between React and external systems such as manually updating the DOM, state management libraries, or other platform APIs. In general, the body of an effect should do one or both of the following:
- Update external systems with the latest state from React.
- Subscribe for updates from some external system, calling setState in a callback function when external state changes.
Calling setState synchronously within an effect body causes cascading renders that can hurt performance, and is not recommended. (https://react.dev/learn/you-might-not-need-an-effect).

What this does
Screen capture writes ~170MB/day of PNGs with no retention - measured 1,379 files / 838MB over ~5 days on a live profile - and the only delete was manual and permanent. This PR adds both halves of the fix (plan:
docs/RETENTION_BACKUP_PLAN.md):Phase 1 - Back up & delete (manual). Each file-centric category row (captures, meetings, generated images) in Settings > Data & privacy gets a "Back up first" toggle. When armed, the retention chips and "All" stage one ZIP (with a manifest) of exactly the files the delete would remove, deliver it via the save dialog to any destination, and only then run the real delete. Cancel or any failure deletes nothing.
Phase 2 - Automatic cleanup (scheduled). A "Keep screen captures for 30/60/90 days" setting (ships Off) with an optional archive folder and a Run now button. A daily job (hourly due-check + startup check, so it survives sleep) archives old captures into the folder - verified copy, collision-suffixed - then prunes. No folder = plain rolling window.
Design notes
CATEGORY_DIRS(new puredata-categoriesmodule + shared contract) is the single source of truth for what each category deletes; the delete path, the summary, the archive collector, and the renderer gating all read it, so the archive can never back up a different file set than the delete removes.clearDirsOlderThanexactly (top-level mtime cutoff, old day-dirs contribute their contents, symlinks refused). ZIPs stream with STORE compression - the corpus is ~1GB of PNGs that do not recompress.archiveThenClear) and the delivery are injected seams: the manual flow binds the save-dialog sink, the scheduler binds a fixed-folder verified copy.clearCategoryand pro's file-truth cleaners are untouched.backup/ipc.tsinjectable-boundary pattern.Screenshots
