Release v1.46.5

Audit of every automatic deletion: a detached plan is never removed (standing
rule now in SCOPE.md), files/cleanup verifies against the stored config instead
of trusting the client, and a deleted space's plan waits thirty days.

 # Changelog
 
+## v1.46.5 — 2026-07-28 (audit of every automatic deletion)
+- **A detached plan is never deleted, at any age.** v1.46.4 gave it a month;
+  this makes it permanent and writes the reason down where the next change will
+  see it. The rule, now in docs/SCOPE.md: the component may delete a file only
+  when a user action says so — replacing a plan, removing an attachment,
+  deleting a device. "Nothing points at this any more" is not such an action.
+  The errors are not symmetrical: wasted disk is visible, cheap and reversible;
+  a deleted file is none of those.
+- **`houseplan/files/cleanup` no longer takes a folder on the client's word.**
+  After a device is rebound its files are copied to the new id and the old
+  folder is dropped — with `rmtree`, on whatever id the card sent. Two ways that
+  ends badly: a partial copy leaves some urls still pointing into that folder
+  (the migration deliberately does not rewrite those, so they were live links to
+  files being deleted), and a wrong or stale id from any client would destroy a
+  live device's manuals. The server now checks the stored configuration itself,
+  under the config lock, and removes only files nothing references.
+- **A plan of a space that was deleted waits thirty days instead of an hour.**
+  Deleting a space is deliberate, but an hour is a short window in which to
+  notice it was a misclick.
+
 ## v1.46.4 — 2026-07-28 (data loss: detached plans were collected as garbage)
 - **A plan you detach is no longer deleted an hour later.** Switching a space to

+## v1.46.5 — 2026-07-28 (ревизия всех автоматических удалений)
+- **Отцеплённый план не удаляется никогда, ни в каком возрасте.** В v1.46.4 ему
+  давался месяц; теперь это навсегда, и причина записана там, где её увидит
+  следующая правка. Правило, оно же в docs/SCOPE.md: компонент вправе удалить
+  файл только тогда, когда об этом говорит действие пользователя — замена
+  плана, удаление вложения, удаление устройства. «На это больше никто не
+  ссылается» таким действием не является. Ошибки несимметричны: занятое зря
+  место видно, стоит копейки и обратимо; удалённый файл — ничего из этого.
+- **`houseplan/files/cleanup` больше не сносит папку по слову клиента.** После
+  перепривязки устройства файлы копируются под новый id, а старая папка
+  удалялась — через `rmtree`, по тому id, который прислала карточка. Два плохих
+  исхода: при частичном копировании часть ссылок продолжает указывать внутрь
+  этой папки (миграция намеренно их не переписывает — то есть это были живые
+  ссылки на удаляемые файлы), а неверный или устаревший id от любого клиента
+  уничтожил бы инструкции существующего устройства. Теперь сервер сам сверяется
+  с сохранённой конфигурацией, под её блокировкой, и удаляет только то, на что
+  никто не ссылается.
+- **План удалённого пространства ждёт тридцать дней вместо часа.** Удаление
+  пространства осознанно, но час — короткое окно, чтобы заметить промах.

+## Standing rule: never delete a user's file on an inference
+
+Fixed with the owner on 2026-07-28, after automatic collection removed two
+detached floor plans. The component may delete a file only when the user's
+action says so — replacing a plan, removing an attachment, deleting a device.
+"Nothing points at this any more" is not such an action: detaching a plan is one
+click and reversible, and the editor tells the user the file stays.
+
+The asymmetry is the whole argument. Wasted disk is visible, cheap and
+reversible; a deleted file is none of those. Where the evidence is weak, keep
+the file — and if a future version wants to reclaim that space, it asks.
+
 ## Out of scope — never build, point users to the right tool
 
 - Automations, scenes, scripts, notifications → HA core.

 | Workflow | Since 2026-07-22: minor changes go to branch **`dev`** (build + smokes → deploy home → commit → push, NO release); releases are batched on the owner's command (merge dev→main, one tag, one release with a summary changelog, CI checked on dev beforehand) |
 | GitHub | https://github.com/Matysh/houseplan-card — **`main` carries every published release, the latest tag is the current version above**; `dev` is where work lands and is merged into `main` at release time (so `dev` is normally equal to or ahead of `main`, never behind). Push via SSH key `ha_jb` (remote git@github.com:…); API releases via the fine-grained PAT in `~/.git-credentials` (Contents R/W, issued 2026-07-23) |
 | CI | validate.yml (hacs + hassfest + frontend + backend) green; release.yml attaches the bundle on release publish |
 | HACS | Custom repository works. **Inclusion PR: hacs/default#9004** — open, valid, labeled; ~864 older open PRs but merge rate ≈180/mo; realistic ETA 1–3 months (checked 2026-07-24) |

 | Localization | UI en/ru (src/i18n/*.json), everything user-visible localized incl. kiosk popover |
 | Tests | Four layers: frontend unit (`npm test`, node:test over `test-build/`), pure backend (`pytest tests_backend`, runs anywhere), HA-harness backend (same folder, CI only — needs py3.13 + pytest-homeassistant-custom-component), and browser smokes (`demo/smoke_*.mjs`, headless chromium). **Counts are not written down here** — they went stale within two releases while the version line beside them was kept current, which reads as less coverage than exists (review R5-2). Run `npm run inventory` for the current numbers, or read them off the last CI run |
 | Community | **Telegram chat: https://t.me/ha_houseplan** (created 2026-07-27) — the primary user-facing support channel; GitHub issues stay for bugs/features. Link it from any new release notes and posts |
