## MCP Server — `.claude/mcp-server.py`

Read-only SQLite access. 16 tools:

```
list_tables                    describe_table(table)
run_query(sql)                 — SELECT/WITH only, max 200 rows

get_suppliers(active_only)     get_purchase_orders(status)
get_purchase_requests(status)  get_supplier_invoices(status)

get_items(category,active)     get_stock_levels(warehouse_id,low_stock_only)
get_warehouses()

get_production_orders(status)  get_bill_of_materials(product_id)

get_customers(active_only)     get_sales_orders(status)
get_sales_invoices(status)     get_dashboard_summary()
```

**Activation:** run `claude mcp add operation-module-db python -- .claude/mcp-server.py` once, then restart Claude Code. Use these tools before reading PHP files or running artisan for data questions.

## Critical Gotchas

### 1. Tailwind JIT — use inline styles for modals/dynamic classes
Vite JIT only compiles classes found in scanned source files at build time. Classes like `max-w-lg`, `max-w-md`, arbitrary colors used only in a modal or added dynamically **will not appear in the compiled CSS**. Always use `style="..."` inline for modal widths, custom colors, and one-off layout values.

### 2. PhpSpreadsheet v5 — `getCellByColumnAndRow()` removed
Use `Coordinate::stringFromColumnIndex($col) . $row` then `$sheet->getCell($coord)` instead:
```php
use PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Cell\Coordinate;
$val = $sheet->getCell(Coordinate::stringFromColumnIndex($col) . $row)->getValue();
```

### 3. Custom routes BEFORE Route::resource()
`Route::resource('suppliers', ...)` registers `{supplier}` wildcard that captures `import`, `template`, `export-pdf`. Custom routes MUST be declared first:
```php
Route::post('suppliers/import', ...);    // first
Route::get('suppliers/template', ...);   // first
Route::get('suppliers/export-pdf', ...); // first
Route::resource('suppliers', ...);       // last
```

### 4. MRFMI supplier import — contact fields are always empty
The MRFMI price-comparison Excel file only contains supplier names in row 4 as column headers. There is no email, phone, or contact data anywhere in the file. This is expected — not a bug.

### 5. Forkoll import — "DESCRIPTION" header row
The Forkoll inventory file has a header row (col A = SI.NO, col B = DESCRIPTION). `ItemImportService` skips col B values in `$headerWords = ['description', 'item name', 'item_name', 'material']` to avoid importing headers as items.

### 6. Search bars — always client-side, never page-refreshing
All search/filter inputs MUST filter records instantly using JavaScript. No `?search=` URL params, no form submissions, no `debounce` + fetch, no page reloads of any kind.

**The pattern to follow (used on the Suppliers index):**
```javascript
var searchInput = document.getElementById('my-search');
var rows        = document.querySelectorAll('.data-row');
var countEl     = document.getElementById('search-count');
var total       = rows.length;

searchInput.addEventListener('input', function() {
    var q = this.value.trim().toLowerCase();
    var visible = 0;
    rows.forEach(function(row) {
        var match = !q || row.textContent.toLowerCase().indexOf(q) !== -1;
        row.classList.toggle('hidden-by-search', !match);
        if (match) visible++;
    });
    countEl.textContent = q ? (visible + ' of ' + total) : total;
});
```
- All records are loaded on page load — the server query returns everything, JS does the filtering
- Add `.hidden-by-search { display:none; }` to the page `<style>` block
- Show a live count ("12 of 47 suppliers") next to the search input
- Show a "No results" message when `visible === 0 && q !== ''`
- Never add `?search=` query params or submit a form for search

### 7. Never use `alert()`, `confirm()`, or `prompt()` — use toasts and modals
These native browser dialogs are ugly, block the thread, and cannot be styled. They are **banned** across the entire project.
- Use `showToast('msg', 'type')` for notifications instead of `alert()`
- Use a custom modal (like the delete confirmation modal) instead of `confirm()`
- Use a styled modal with an `<input>` instead of `prompt()`

### 8. Route parameter names must never be `{request}`
Laravel injects `Illuminate\Http\Request` by type-hint into `$request`. If a route parameter is also named `{request}`, implicit model binding silently fails — the model parameter receives null/empty, causing NOT NULL violations or UrlGenerationException when generating URLs from that model.

**Rule:** Always name route parameters after the model, matching the controller variable name exactly:
```php
// WRONG — {request} clashes with Request $request injection
Route::post('requests/{request}/sign', [PurchaseSignatureController::class, 'store']);
// store(Request $request, PurchaseRequest $purchaseRequest) — $purchaseRequest gets null

// CORRECT
Route::post('requests/{purchaseRequest}/sign', [PurchaseSignatureController::class, 'store']);
// store(Request $request, PurchaseRequest $purchaseRequest) — binding works
```

**Route::resource also generates `{request}` for a resource named `requests`.** Always override it:
```php
// WRONG
Route::resource('requests', PurchaseRequestController::class);
// Generates {request} — clashes with $request injection in every method

// CORRECT
Route::resource('requests', PurchaseRequestController::class)->parameters(['requests' => 'purchaseRequest']);
// Generates {purchaseRequest} — matches $purchaseRequest in controller methods
```
Use `{purchaseRequest}`, `{purchaseOrder}`, `{supplier}`, etc. — never `{request}`.

### 9. Status notifications — always use toasts, never inline banners
All success/error/info/warning messages MUST be displayed as toasts, not as `<div>` banners inside the page content. The global toast system is wired into `layouts/app.blade.php` and fires automatically from Laravel session flash keys (`success`, `error`, `info`, `warning`). In controllers, use:
```php
return redirect()->route('...')->with('success', 'Done.');
return redirect()->route('...')->with('error', 'Something failed.');
```
To trigger a toast from JavaScript (e.g. after an in-page action), call:
```javascript
showToast('Message text', 'success'); // types: success | error | info | warn
```
**Never** add inline `@if(session('success'))` banner divs to individual views — the layout handles all of them. The toast appears bottom-right, auto-dismisses after 4 s, has a shrinking progress bar, and can be clicked or ×-closed early.
