SC
Scan and validate
Validate extension, MIME type, file size, XML structure, and expected plist keys on the server before processing.
plist workflow
Patcher for authorized .plist jobs.
Upload a .plist file, validate the file type, and prepare a server-side patch request. The frontend is designed for professional repair teams and IT administrators who need controlled, auditable workflows.
Security expectations.
A patcher should be strict. These rules help keep the workflow professional and ready for production controls.
AU
Authorization gates
Require login, serial status, role permissions, ownership proof, and clear service purpose before accepting jobs.
LG
Audit logs
Record operator, timestamp, file hash, device reference, selected profile, and result status for every patch job.
How the production patcher should work.
The frontend already describes the user journey. The backend can add real upload handling, queue processing, and automatic server attachment later.
Upload and validate
The user submits a .plist file and the server rejects unsafe or malformed files.
Patch in an isolated job
The backend processes the file in a controlled environment and records an immutable job log.
Attach to account
Completed files are linked to the registered serial, support ticket, or approved device record.
Register before patching.
For production, patcher access should be limited to verified accounts with active serials.
