riyadhafraa f4d99b6cfd Rebuild PDF generation: HTML <table> + Playwright replaces PDFKit manual drawing
Task #372: Replaced the manual PDFKit coordinate-based PDF renderer with an
HTML table-based approach using Playwright's headless Chromium.

Key changes:
- Created `pdf-html-renderer.ts` with `buildScheduleHtml()` (generates full
  HTML with embedded base64 fonts, proper `<table>`, RTL/LTR support, row
  colors, merged cells, attendees formatting) and `htmlToPdfBuffer()` (renders
  HTML to PDF via Playwright Chromium).
- Updated `pdf-renderer.ts`: `renderSchedulePdf()` now delegates to the new
  HTML renderer via dynamic import. Legacy PDFKit code preserved as
  `renderSchedulePdf_LEGACY()` for fallback reference.
- Added `playwright-core` dependency and configured esbuild externals.
- Chromium binary discovery: searches `.cache/ms-playwright/` directories with
  env var override (`PLAYWRIGHT_CHROMIUM_EXECUTABLE_PATH`). Browser instance
  is cached as singleton with launch mutex to prevent concurrent double-launch.
- Process shutdown hook closes browser on exit.

Requirements met:
- Each meeting in exactly one `<tr>` with 4 `<td>` cells
- No text outside table, attendees ~3 per line inline
- Time always in its column, `page-break-inside: avoid`, `table-layout: fixed`
- Matches reference design (blue header, centered text, DIN Next LT Arabic)

# Tx OS
## Overview
Tx OS is a bilingual (Arabic/English), full-stack internal web platform designed with an OS-like interface and glassmorphism aesthetics. It aims to provide a comprehensive suite of internal tools and services, enhancing user experience and operational efficiency within the organization. The project focuses on delivering a visually appealing and highly functional platform.

## System Architecture
The project is structured as a pnpm monorepo.
### UI/UX Decisions
- **Bilingual Support**: Arabic (RTL) and English (LTR) with user-persisted locale settings.
- **Glassmorphism OS UI**: Features animated gradient backgrounds and frosted glass panels.
- **OS Home Screen**: Includes a live clock status bar with customizable styles, an app grid, and a bottom dock.
- **Custom Attendee Subheadings**: Allows interleaving free-text section headers within attendee lists in Executive Meetings, distinct from person rows.
- **Shared Row Colors**: Executive Meeting schedule row colors are stored on the meeting object itself, ensuring consistent viewing across all users and devices.
### Technical Implementations
- **Monorepo**: Managed with pnpm workspaces.
- **Backend**: Node.js 24 with TypeScript 5.9, using Express 5, `express-session` with `connect-pg-simple` for PostgreSQL sessions, `bcryptjs` for hashing, and Socket.IO for real-time communication.
- **Database**: PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM for schema definition and Zod for validation.
- **API Codegen**: Orval is used to generate React Query hooks and Zod schemas from an OpenAPI specification.
- **Frontend**: Built with React and Vite, styled using Tailwind CSS v4, `wouter` for routing, and `i18next` with `react-i18next` for internationalization.
- **Authentication**: Session-based authentication with Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) supporting admin and user roles.
- **Real-time Features**: Implemented using Socket.IO for chat and real-time notifications.
- **Executive Meetings Module**: A comprehensive module with scheduling, CRUD operations for meetings, change requests, approvals, tasks, notifications, and an audit log. RBAC is enforced via five role sets (READ/MUTATE/APPROVE/REQUEST/ADMIN_AUDIT). All mutations are wrapped in database transactions to ensure data consistency and atomic audit logging.
- **Optimistic Locking**: Implemented for Executive Meeting postponements to prevent concurrent updates from silently overwriting changes, using `expectedUpdatedAt` and returning a 409 conflict on mismatch.
- **Upcoming Meeting Alert**: A global, draggable alert component appears when an Executive Meeting is within five minutes of starting, providing options to postpone, reschedule, or cancel the meeting.
- **PDF Generation (HTML Table)**: Executive meetings PDFs are now generated via a real HTML `<table>` rendered by Playwright's headless Chromium (`pdf-html-renderer.ts`). This replaced the manual PDFKit drawing approach to guarantee each meeting occupies exactly one `<tr>` row with 4 `<td>` cells (number, title, attendees, time). The Chromium binary is auto-discovered from `.cache/ms-playwright/` or via `PLAYWRIGHT_CHROMIUM_EXECUTABLE_PATH` env var. The browser instance is cached (singleton with launch mutex) and closed on process exit. The legacy PDFKit renderer is preserved as `renderSchedulePdf_LEGACY` in `pdf-renderer.ts` for fallback reference.
- **Custom Editor Fonts**: The in-place rich-text cell editor (attendee names, meeting titles, etc.) ships a curated set of self-hosted Arabic + Latin font families (DIN Next LT Arabic, Tajawal, Helvetica Neue LT Arabic, Helvetica Neue, Majalla) declared in `artifacts/tx-os/src/custom-fonts.css` with `font-display: swap`. Files live under `artifacts/tx-os/public/fonts/`. The site default body font is **DIN Next LT Arabic** (`--app-font-sans` in `index.css`), and Google Fonts is no longer fetched at page load. The Executive Meetings **Font Settings** page exposes the same five families plus `system` as the user/global picker; the values are kept in lockstep with the backend Zod allowlist (`FONT_FAMILIES` in `routes/executive-meetings.ts`), the rich-text sanitizer's font-family allowlist (`FONT_NAME_PART` in `lib/sanitize.ts`), and the PDF renderer's family map (`FAMILY_MAP` in `lib/pdf-renderer.ts`). When adding or removing a family, update all four locations together. Note the intentional asymmetry of the `system` value: in the web UI it resolves to whatever the CSS default is (currently DIN Next LT Arabic, a sans family), while in server-side PDF rendering it maps to the bundled Naskh stand-in (`NotoNaskhArabic`) — PDFs are document-style output where Naskh is the more conventional Arabic body face, so this is by design.
- **Tab Quick-Add Attendees**: Pressing Tab inside an attendee name cell commits the current value and immediately opens a new pending attendee row right after, so users can keep typing names without using the mouse. Implemented via an `onTabNext` prop on `EditableCell` and a `chainStartAdd` prop on `AttendeeFlow` that bypasses the single-pending UI gate (the parent's state-level guard still prevents truly overlapping pendings).
### Feature Specifications
- **خدماتي (My Services)**: Displays a grid of service cards with availability status.
- **Internal Chat**: Real-time messaging with conversation lists via Socket.IO.
- **Notifications**: Tracks unread notifications and provides a "mark all as read" function.
- **Admin Panel**: CRUD functionalities for applications, services, and users. Includes dependency warnings on deletion and transactional app creation with pre-set permissions.
## External Dependencies
