# Live Review Engine

> Host-driven, participant-attested review sessions in real time — with QR kiosk sign-in, per-item signatures, and a signed binder

The Live Review Engine runs **host-driven, participant-attested** review sessions
in real time. A staff host drives a queued list of items from their screen; one
or more participants follow along on their own device (typically an iPad reached
via a QR code) and record decisions, notes, and a signed attestation as each item
is reviewed. Every action is written to a tamper-evident audit trail, and the
completed session prints to a signed binder. It's a generic engine — its first
and most built-out use is **compliance reviews**.

Open it at `/reviews`.

## When to use it

* Walk a client or employee through compliance findings live, capturing
  accept/modify/decline decisions with signatures.
* Any session that needs a signed, per-item attestation with a legal audit trail.
* Multi-reviewer sessions where different SMEs own different domains, each with a
  scoped queue.

## How a session works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Host opens the console and shows a QR">
    The host console (`/reviews/{id}/host`) displays a QR code; the participant
    scans it to load their kiosk view at `/r/{token}`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Host drives the queue">
    Start the session and it goes live. The host controls Start / Pause / Resume
    / Goto — participants can only advance while the host is live.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Participant attests each item">
    For each item the participant records a decision (acknowledge / modified /
    decline), optional notes, and a drawn signature.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sign and close">
    At the end the participant signs the session and the host signs; the host ends
    it, the participant's access is revoked, and completion hooks write the
    decisions back to the source records.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Host and participant views stay in sync in real time (server-sent events), and
every transition is recorded in the audit trail.

## Multi-reviewer sessions

Assign subject-matter experts to specific domains — each gets a scoped queue and
their own signature block, and the host sees a live matrix of per-reviewer
progress.

## Signed binder

A completed session prints to a binder summarizing every item, decision,
signature, and duration.

## Good to know

* **Compliance reviews are the fully wired use today.** The engine also supports
  HR reviews, training, onboarding, post-mortems, and vendor attestations as
  session types, but those aren't built out with domain content yet.
* The binder is **printed to PDF from the browser** (Print → Save as PDF), not a
  pre-rendered file.
* Real-time coordination is single-process; participant links expire after 24
  hours (and immediately when the host ends the session).
