feat(setup): separate NFO scan into dedicated phase

- Add /nfo-scan-phase endpoint to trigger NFO scan independently
- Move NFO scan out of initial setup into separate post-unresolved phase
- Add phase query param handling for /loading page (?phase=initial, ?phase=nfo)
- Update setup redirect middleware to handle phase-based redirects
- Update auth setup to pass phase=initial to loading page

-## 12. Database Location
+## 12. Series Storage: Database vs Files (Deprecated)
+
+### File-Based Storage (Removed in v2.0)
+
+Prior to v2.0, series metadata was stored in two files per anime folder:
+
+| File     | Contents                                                |
+| -------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `key`    | Series provider key (e.g., `"attack-on-titan"`)        |
+| `data`   | JSON serialization of `Serie` object                    |
+
+File structure example:
+```
+/anime/Attack on Titan (2013)/
+├── key          # Contains: attack-on-titan
+├── data         # Contains: {"key": "...", "name": "...", "episodeDict": {...}}
+├── Season 1/
+│   └── ...
+```
+
+### Database Storage (Current)
+
+Since v2.0, all series metadata is stored in the `anime_series` table with `Episode` records for episode tracking. This provides:
+
+- **ACID transactions** for data consistency
+- **Foreign key constraints** (cascade delete)
+- **Indexed queries** for fast lookups
+- **No filesystem dependency** for metadata
+
+### Migration from Files to Database
+
+The `Serie.save_to_file()` and `Serie.load_from_file()` methods are deprecated but still functional for backward compatibility during migration:
+
+```python
+from src.core.entities.series import Serie
+
+# Old file-based loading (deprecated)
+serie = Serie.load_from_file("/anime/Attack on Titan (2013)/data")
+
+# New database-based loading
+from src.server.database.service import AnimeSeriesService
+serie = await AnimeSeriesService.get_by_key(db, "attack-on-titan")
+```
+
+### Removing File Dependencies
+
+After verifying database schema supports all fields, file-based storage can be removed:
+
+1. ✅ Schema verified: All `Serie` fields have corresponding DB columns
+2. ✅ Migration complete: All existing series migrated to database
+3. ❌ File cleanup: Remove `key` and `data` files (pending)
+
+**Note:** The `save_to_file()` and `load_from_file()` methods will be removed in v3.0.0.
+
+---
+
+## 12. Series Persistence Flow
+
+When a directory scan discovers or updates series, the scanner persists data to the database instead of writing to disk files.
+
+### Scan Flow

+                                      Return to Scan Loop
+```
+
+### Key Methods
+
+**SerieScanner._persist_serie_to_db()**
+- Called after `get_missing_episodes_and_season()` computes episodeDict
+- Uses `AnimeSeriesService.get_by_key()` to check if series exists
+- If exists: calls `AnimeSeriesService.update()` + `_sync_episodes_to_db()`
+- If new: calls `AnimeSeriesService.create()` + creates episodes
+
+**SerieScanner._sync_episodes_to_db()**
+- Gets existing episodes from DB via `EpisodeService.get_by_series()`
+- Compares with new episodeDict
+- Removes episodes no longer missing (unless `is_downloaded=True`)
+- Adds new missing episodes
+- Preserves `is_downloaded=True` episodes when removing missing ones
+
+**SerieList.add_to_db()**
+- Used when adding a new discovered series via API
+- Creates filesystem folder + database record + episode records
+
+### Episode Sync Logic
+
+```python
+# For each episode in DB but not in new episodeDict:
+if episode.is_downloaded:
+    # Keep - file exists, don't remove
+    pass
+else:
+    # Remove - no longer missing
+    EpisodeService.delete()
+
+# For each episode in new episodeDict but not in DB:
+# Add as new missing episode
+EpisodeService.create(is_downloaded=False)
+```
+
+### Transaction Handling
+
+- DB operations use their own session with commit/rollback
+- If DB write fails, error is logged and scan continues
+- File-based `save_to_file()` no longer called during scan
+
+### Migration Path
+
+1. v2.x: Scanner writes to both DB (primary) and files (fallback)
+2. v3.0: Scanner writes only to DB, file methods removed

 ### Scheduler Persistence and Recovery
 
-APScheduler stores jobs in `data/scheduler.db` (SQLite) so they survive process restarts:
+The scheduler uses APScheduler's in-memory job store. Jobs are reconstructed from `config.json` on every startup — no separate database is needed.
 
 ```python
-from apscheduler.jobstores.sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemyJobStore
+# Jobs are built from config on startup — no persistence DB required
-
+scheduler = AsyncIOScheduler()  # default MemoryJobStore
-jobstores = {
+scheduler.add_job(..., replace_existing=True)
-    "default": SQLAlchemyJobStore(url="sqlite:///./data/scheduler.db"),
-}
-scheduler = AsyncIOScheduler(jobstores=jobstores)
 ```
 
-**Grace period:** `misfire_grace_time=3600` (1 hour). If server is down at scheduled time and restarts within 1 hour, missed job runs automatically via APScheduler coalesce behavior.
+**Startup misfire recovery:** On `start()`, the scheduler checks `system_settings.last_scan_timestamp` in `aniworld.db`. If the last scan is overdue (>23h but <25h ago), an immediate rescan is triggered. This replaces APScheduler's built-in misfire handling which required a separate SQLite database.
 
-**Startup recovery:** On `start()`, scheduler loads persisted jobs from DB. APScheduler handles missed jobs internally when `coalesce=True`.
+**Grace period:** If the server was down for more than 25 hours, no automatic recovery occurs to avoid surprise rescans after long downtime.
 
 **Health endpoint:** `GET /health` returns `scheduler_next_run` and `scheduler_last_run` for external monitors (Uptime Kuma, Prometheus, etc.).
 
-**If server is down >1 hour:** No automatic recovery. Manual trigger via `POST /api/scheduler/trigger-rescan` or wait for next scheduled run.
+**If server is down too long:** Manual trigger via `POST /api/scheduler/trigger-rescan` or wait for next scheduled run.
+
+### Database Session Management
+
+`get_async_session_factory()` returns a **new AsyncSession instance** directly (not a factory). The function name is historical — callers receive the session immediately:
+
+```python
+# Correct usage:
+db = get_async_session_factory()  # db IS the session
+await db.execute(...)
+await db.commit()
+await db.close()
+```
+
+Do NOT call the result again with `()` — that tries to call an `AsyncSession` object, causing `'AsyncSession' object is not callable`.
+
+For context manager usage, prefer `get_db_session()` (auto-commits) or `get_transactional_session()` (manual commit).

+## Series Storage
+
+### Overview
+
+Series metadata now stored in the database (SQLAlchemy ORM).
+Legacy files (`key` and `data` per folder) are deprecated but preserved
+for backward compatibility.
+
+### Architecture
+
+- **Database**: Single source of truth for all series metadata
+- **In-Memory Cache**: SeriesApp maintains a cache for performance
+- **Filesystem**: Only used for episode files themselves, not metadata
+
+### Migration
+
+First startup after upgrade automatically imports any legacy
+series files into the database.
+
+### Legacy Files
+
+- `key` file: Contains series provider key (deprecated)
+- `data` file: Contains Serie JSON object (deprecated)
+
+Both are safe to delete after migration; not needed for normal operation.

+# Migration Guide: File-Based to Database Storage
+
+## Overview
+
+This guide covers the transition from file-based series metadata storage to the new database-backed system introduced in v2.0.
+
+## What Changed
+
+**Before v2.0**: Series metadata stored in `key` and `data` files alongside anime folders.
+
+**After v2.0**: All metadata stored in SQLite database (`aniworld.db`). Files are deprecated but still supported for backward compatibility during migration.
+
+## Automated Migration
+
+The application automatically migrates on first startup:
+
+1. Scans anime directory for `key` and `data` files
+2. Parses legacy files into `AnimeSeries` and `Episode` records
+3. Loads series into in-memory cache
+4. Logs migration results
+
+**No manual action required.**
+
+## Manual Verification
+
+After first startup with the new version:
+
+1. **Check logs** for: `"Migrated X series from files to DB"`
+2. **Verify series count**: UI shows same number of series as before
+3. **Confirm episodes**: Episode counts match expected totals
+
+```bash
+# Check migration log
+grep "Migrated" logs/app.log
+
+# Verify series via API
+curl http://localhost:8000/api/anime | jq '.total'
+```
+
+## After Migration
+
+### Safe to Delete
+
+Once verified, these files can be removed:
+
+```
+<anime_folder>/
+├── Attack on Titan (2013)/
+│   ├── key     # ❌ Can delete
+│   ├── data    # ❌ Can delete
+│   └── Season 1/
+│       └── ...
+```
+
+**Deleting these files does not affect the database.** The metadata now lives in `aniworld.db`.
+
+### Backup (Recommended)
+
+Before deleting, backup the files:
+
+```bash
+# Create backup directory
+mkdir -p backup/legacy_series_files
+
+# Copy all key and data files
+find /path/to/anime -name "key" -o -name "data" | while read f; do
+    cp "$f" "backup/legacy_series_files/"
+done
+```
+
+## Reverting (Not Recommended)
+
+If you must revert to file-based storage:
+
+1. **Restore from database backup** (if available)
+2. **Export manually** (no export script exists)
+
+**Warning**: File-based storage is deprecated and will be removed in v3.0.0.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Series Not Appearing After Migration
+
+1. Check logs for migration errors: `grep -i error logs/app.log`
+2. Verify `key` and `data` files exist and are readable
+3. Manually trigger rescan: `POST /api/scheduler/trigger-rescan`
+
+### Duplicate Series
+
+1. Check for duplicate `key` files (same series in multiple folders)
+2. Verify series key uniqueness in database:
+
+```bash
+sqlite3 aniworld.db "SELECT key, COUNT(*) FROM anime_series GROUP BY key HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;"
+```
+
+### Missing Episodes
+
+1. Trigger targeted scan for affected series
+2. Check episode sync logs
+3. Verify file permissions on anime directory
+
+## Deprecation Timeline
+
+| Version | Status |
+|---------|--------|
+| v2.0.x  | Legacy files supported, migration automated |
+| v2.1.x  | Legacy files still supported, warnings in logs |
+| v3.0.0  | **Legacy files removed** - database only |
+
+Upgrade to v3.0.0 before legacy file support ends.

+# Navigation & Redirect Logic
+
+This document describes the setup flow navigation, covering how users progress from initial setup through to the main application.
+
+## Overview
+
+The application uses a middleware-based redirect system to ensure users complete setup before accessing the main app. The flow involves multiple pages handling setup completion, unresolved folder detection, and initialization.
+
+## Setup Flow
+
+```

+```
+
+**New Navigation Order:**
+1. `/setup` → Initial configuration
+2. `/loading` → Series scan + NFO scan
+3. `/setup/unresolved` → Resolve folders (if any)
+4. `/loading` → NFO scan runs again
+5. `/login` → Authentication
+
+**Key Changes:**
+- After `/setup/unresolved`, the "Done" button marks the phase as complete
+- Revisiting `/setup/unresolved` after completion → redirects to `/loading`
+- `/loading` always goes to `/setup/unresolved` if unresolved folders exist
+- NFO scan runs as a separate phase after series sync during initialization
+
+## Middleware: SetupRedirectMiddleware
+
+**File:** `src/server/middleware/setup_redirect.py`
+
+The middleware intercepts all requests and redirects to `/setup` if:
+- No master password is configured
+- Configuration file is missing or invalid
+
+### Exempt Paths (always accessible)
+
+| Path | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `/setup` | Initial setup page |
+| `/setup/unresolved` | Unresolved folder resolution |
+| `/loading` | Initialization progress page |
+| `/login` | Authentication |
+| `/api/auth/*` | Auth endpoints |
+| `/api/config/*` | Config API |
+| `/api/health` | Health check |
+| `/static/*` | Static assets |
+
+### Middleware Logic
+
+1. **Setup incomplete** → Redirect to `/setup`
+2. **Setup complete, accessing `/setup`** → Redirect to `/login`
+3. **Setup complete, accessing `/loading`** → Allow access (page handles its own redirect)
+4. **Setup complete, accessing `/setup/unresolved`**:
+   - If `unresolved_completed` flag is set → Redirect to `/loading`
+   - Otherwise → Allow access
+5. **API requests during setup** → Return 503 with `setup_url`
+
+## Pages
+
+### 1. Setup Page (`/setup`)
+
+**File:** `src/server/web/templates/setup.html`
+
+Handles initial configuration:
+- Master password creation
+- Anime directory selection
+- Database initialization
+
+**Post-completion flow:**
+- Redirects to `/loading` to begin initialization
+
+### 2. Loading Page (`/loading`)
+
+**File:** `src/server/web/templates/loading.html`
+
+Shows initialization progress via WebSocket:
+- Series scanning
+- Database population
+- Logo/image loading
+
+**Post-initialization flow:**
+```javascript
+async function checkUnresolvedAndProceed() {
+    // Fetch unresolved folders via API
+    const res = await fetch('/api/setup/unresolved', {
+        headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${token}` }
+    });
+    const folders = await res.json();
+    
+    if (folders.length > 0) {
+        // Has unresolved folders → go to resolution page
+        window.location.href = '/setup/unresolved';
+    } else {
+        // No unresolved folders → go to login
+        window.location.href = '/login';
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Unresolved Folders Page (`/setup/unresolved`)
+
+**File:** `src/server/web/templates/unresolved.html`
+
+Allows manual resolution of folders that couldn't be auto-matched:
+- Shows list of unresolved folders
+- Provides search suggestions
+- Input field for entering provider key
+- Resolve/delete actions
+- **Done button** at top to complete the phase without resolving all folders
+
+**Post-resolution flow:**
+```javascript
+// After clicking "Done" button
+async function handleDone() {
+    // Call API to mark phase as complete
+    await fetch('/api/setup/unresolved/done', { method: 'POST' });
+    // Redirect to loading for final NFO scan
+    window.location.href = '/loading';
+}
+```
+
+**Done button behavior:**
+- Marks all remaining folders as handled
+- Sets `unresolved_completed` flag in config
+- Redirects to `/loading` to run final NFO scan
+- After completion, `/setup/unresolved` becomes inaccessible (redirects to `/loading`)
+
+### 4. Login Page (`/login`)
+
+**File:** `src/server/web/templates/login.html`
+
+Authentication page. After successful login → redirect to `/` (main app).
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+### Unresolved Folders API
+
+| Method | Endpoint | Description |
+|--------|----------|-------------|
+| `GET` | `/api/setup/unresolved` | List all unresolved folders |
+| `GET` | `/api/setup/unresolved/{folder_name}` | Get specific folder details |
+| `POST` | `/api/setup/unresolved/{folder_name}/resolve` | Resolve with provider key |
+| `POST` | `/api/setup/unresolved/{folder_name}/search` | Re-search for matches |
+| `DELETE` | `/api/setup/unresolved/{folder_name}` | Remove folder from tracking |
+| `POST` | `/api/setup/unresolved/done` | Mark unresolved phase as complete |
+
+### Auth API
+
+| Method | Endpoint | Description |
+|--------|----------|-------------|
+| `POST` | `/api/auth/setup` | Create master password |
+| `POST` | `/api/auth/login` | Authenticate |
+| `POST` | `/api/auth/logout` | End session |
+
+## Key Files
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `src/server/middleware/setup_redirect.py` | Redirect middleware |
+| `src/server/controllers/page_controller.py` | Page route handlers |
+| `src/server/web/templates/setup.html` | Setup template |
+| `src/server/web/templates/loading.html` | Loading template |
+| `src/server/web/templates/unresolved.html` | Unresolved folders template |
+| `src/server/api/setup_endpoints.py` | Unresolved folders API |
+| `src/server/database/service.py` | UnresolvedFolderService |
+
+## Common Issues
+
+### Redirect Loop
+
+**Symptom:** Browser keeps redirecting between pages.
+
+**Causes:**
+1. `loading.html` always redirected to `/setup/unresolved` without checking if any exist
+2. `unresolved.html` redirected to `/` which middleware redirected back to `/login`
+
+**Fix:** See the navigation logic updates in loading.html and unresolved.html.
+
+### Can't Access Unresolved Page After Setup
+
+**Symptom:** Middleware redirects to `/login` instead of allowing access to `/setup/unresolved`.
+
+**Cause:** `/setup/unresolved` is in the exempt paths but the request may not be reaching it due to completion check timing.
+
+**Fix:** The middleware allows access to `/loading` which handles the redirect to `/setup/unresolved` after initialization.

+### 6.7 TMDB Lookup Fails for My Series
+
+**Problem**: TMDB search fails with "No results found" for a valid series.
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. **Check if series exists on TMDB**: Visit https://www.themoviedb.org and search for your series
+2. **Use manual ID override**: Add TMDB ID directly to `tvshow.nfo`:
+   ```xml
+   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
+   <tvshow>
+       <title>Your Series Name</title>

+   </tvshow>
+   ```
+   Aniworld will use this ID directly instead of searching.
+
+3. **Try alternative titles**: Some anime have different titles (Japanese, romaji, English). If you have access to the folder, rename it to match the TMDB title.
+
+4. **Add to existing NFO**: If `tvshow.nfo` exists but has no TMDB ID, edit it to add:
+   ```xml
+   <tmdbid>YOUR_TMDB_ID</tmdbid>
+   ```
+   Then use the Update endpoint to refresh metadata.
+
+5. **Check for rate limiting**: If many lookups fail at once, you may be hitting TMDB rate limits. Wait and retry later.
+
+6. **Verify API key**: Ensure your TMDB API key is valid and has not exceeded usage limits.

+### Testing SetupService
-- The mock uses in-memory storage, no database required
+
-- All async methods are implemented (even if just pass-through)
+SetupService handles series key resolution from folder names during library setup. Test file: `tests/unit/test_setup_service.py`.
-- `save_item` uses `item.id` as key (must be set before calling)
+
-- Suitable for unit tests only (no persistence)
+Key methods tested:
+- `_extract_year_from_folder_name()` — parses `(YYYY)` suffix
+- `_extract_title_from_folder_name()` — strips year suffix
+- `_resolve_key_via_search()` — resolves provider key via fuzzy title matching
