Prompted by an automated simplification review of the branch. Applies the highest-value findings, all behavior-preserving (full suite still green): - vector_store.py: extract _rebuild_file() (temp-file lifecycle: open, populate, swap-in-or-discard-on-failure) and _rebuild_into() (create table, copy meta, stream rows) out of compact() and the v1->v2 migration, which had duplicated both almost verbatim. The migration module shrinks to a single _rebuild_into() call instead of reaching into four PaperlessSqliteVecVectorStore privates. - vector_store.py: extract _stored_schema_version() out of has_pending_migration() and check_and_run_migrations(), which duplicated the same schema_version read and its "missing key means current" default. - indexing.py: extract _with_exclusive_access(), collapsing three identical _exclude_readers()/Timeout/log-and-skip blocks (compaction in update_llm_index() and llm_index_compact(), the migration check in _check_and_run_migrations()) to one line each. Also trims _check_and_run_migrations()'s docstring, which had grown to restate content already documented on has_pending_migration() and check_and_run_migrations(), including a claim that was now stale (llm_index_migrate() is a second consumer of the re-embed signal). - test_ai_indexing.py: add a mock_store fixture for the write_store()-yields-a-MagicMock pattern that 8 tests were hand-rolling identically. - migrations/__init__.py: consolidate the "how to add a migration" instructions to one place instead of three. - docs/administration.md: fix two now-inaccurate claims -- the bare-metal migrate step doesn't run "automatically" (it's the manual step being documented), and the self-contradictory "if enabled... no-op if disabled" phrasing on the same step.

Paperless-ngx
Paperless-ngx is a document management system that transforms your physical documents into a searchable online archive so you can keep, well, less paper.
Paperless-ngx is the official successor to the original Paperless & Paperless-ng projects and is designed to distribute the responsibility of advancing and supporting the project among a team of people. Consider joining us!
Thanks to the generous folks at DigitalOcean, a demo is available at demo.paperless-ngx.com using login demo / demo. Note: demo content is reset frequently and confidential information should not be uploaded.

Features
A full list of features and screenshots are available in the documentation.
Getting started
The easiest way to deploy paperless is docker compose. The files in the /docker/compose directory are configured to pull the image from the GitHub container registry.
If you'd like to jump right in, you can configure a docker compose environment with our install script:
bash -c "$(curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/main/install-paperless-ngx.sh)"
More details and step-by-step guides for alternative installation methods can be found in the documentation.
Migrating from Paperless-ng is easy, just drop in the new docker image! See the documentation on migrating for more details.

Important Note
Document scanners are typically used to scan sensitive documents like your social insurance number, tax records, invoices, etc. Paperless-ngx should never be run on an untrusted host because information is stored in clear text without encryption. No guarantees are made regarding security (but we do try!) and you use the app at your own risk. The safest way to run Paperless-ngx is on a local server in your own home with backups in place.
