# PDF generation and distribution

<!-- Generated from docs/feature-map.json. Run npm run docs:build; do not edit this view. -->

**Access boundary:** Current capability and authority required.

Implemented; generation, preparation, approval and delivery remain separate.

**Surfaces:** Web, REST and MCP; generation is separate from distribution and delivery.

## Capabilities

<ol>
<li id="feature-24b0ccee25f9">Single PDF from a business form</li>
<li id="feature-fcebd62d65fc">PDF batch from a validated mapping</li>
<li id="feature-b702a35bea77">Progress, per-record results and source-cell provenance</li>
<li id="feature-446f64517f9f">Generation cancellation and retry of failed records only</li>
<li id="feature-63934976075c">PDF selection and separate distribution-plan preparation</li>
<li id="feature-d4d0fd9899d1">The first plan permanently freezes the full batch, including excluded failed records; prepare_distribution declares destructiveHint true</li>
<li id="feature-41281e978398">Common recipient or frozen columns with an explicit channel per record</li>
<li id="feature-8d3448a860b7">Resume remaining entries without duplication</li>
<li id="feature-95d7b0497306">Entry-linked postal preflight with separate review and sending</li>
<li id="feature-b7f28cbf0e72">Known assistant-excluded content is never generated, previewed, shared or distributed; request a person-redacted version and never treat scanning as proof of absence</li>
</ol>
