+## PostgreSQL migration and rollback
+
+The backend now uses PostgreSQL only. A fresh database is created by the PostgreSQL Flyway location (`db/migration/postgresql`) and validated by Hibernate. The original MariaDB migrations remain unchanged; the PostgreSQL location carries their compatible schema history and adds PostgreSQL full-text search in V36. MariaDB and PostgreSQL UUID representation differ: PostgreSQL uses native `uuid` columns.
+
+For an existing production database, perform the cutover in an isolated environment first. Do not point the application at the source MariaDB database during this process.
+
+1. Take a MariaDB logical backup and prove that it restores to a separate MariaDB instance. Record row counts for every table and preserve the backup outside the migration host.
+2. Create an empty PostgreSQL database and import a restored copy of MariaDB with `pgloader`. Use a reviewed pgloader cast rule for `BINARY(16)` to native UUID (`binary-to-uuid`), `TINYINT(1)` to boolean, and MariaDB temporal types to PostgreSQL timestamps. Exclude `flyway_schema_history` from the import; the PostgreSQL Flyway history is initialized separately. Keep the MariaDB instance untouched.
+3. Compare table/row counts, UUID samples, foreign-key integrity, null/default behavior, OAuth authorization payloads, and timestamp samples between source and target. Reconcile identity sequences with each table's maximum imported ID.
+4. In the imported target only, initialize Flyway's PostgreSQL history at version 35 (`flyway baseline -baselineVersion=35`), then start the application with the PostgreSQL `DB_URL`. Flyway applies V36 and Hibernate validates the schema. Run authenticated REST, OAuth, MCP, assistant search, export, and scheduled-job smoke checks.
+5. Repeat the import and checks from a clean backup as a dry run. Schedule a maintenance window, stop writes to MariaDB, take a final backup, import the final delta/full snapshot, reconcile counts and sequences, then switch `DB_URL` to PostgreSQL.
+6. Keep MariaDB and its backups intact through the agreed observation period. If any validation fails, stop the PostgreSQL application and restore the previous MariaDB `DB_URL`; do not reverse-import partial PostgreSQL writes into MariaDB. Reconcile any writes made during the observation period before reopening the old database.
+
+The repository does not contain production credentials or data, so the dry run and live cutover must be performed by the operator against isolated/production infrastructure. Keep the old instance available until the new target has been explicitly accepted.
