+every filter and the paging. Ordering is applied to the whole matching list before slicing, with the
+image id as the final tie-break, so pages never overlap or skip. A page past the last answers 200

+Breaking change: `next_cursor` is gone and no `X-Total-Count` header is sent. `cursor` and `limit`
+are no longer parameters; they are ignored, never an error, and have no effect on paging.

-## Pagination in the URL (Articles)
-`/articles?page=2&size=50`. Parameter names follow the repo (activity already uses `page` and `size`). Allowed sizes 5, 25, 50, 100. Defaults `page=1`, `size=25`, omitted from the URL when default. Changing search, tab, filter or size resets `page` to 1. `page` above the last page redirects (replace) to the last page and shows "That page doesn't exist. Showing the last page." An invalid `size` falls back to 25.
-**Proposed, needs backend:** `GET /v1/article/` currently returns every article. It must accept `page` and `size` and return `total` (and the page) in the response.
+## Pagination in the URL (Articles, Media)
+`/articles?page=2&size=50` and `/media?page=7&size=50`. Parameter names follow the repo (activity already uses `page` and `size`). Allowed sizes 5, 25, 50, 100. Defaults `page=1`, `size=25`, omitted from the URL when default. Changing search, tab, filter or size resets `page` to 1. `page` above the last page redirects (replace) to the last page and shows "That page doesn't exist. Showing the last page." An invalid `size` falls back to 25.
+**API:** `GET /v1/article/` accepts `page` (default 1) and `size` (5, 25, 50, 100; default 25), as `GET /v1/activity` does. The body stays a JSON array so existing consumers keep working; the total comes back in `X-Total-Count` (the response shape is to be confirmed with the specifier). Anonymous callers only see online articles, and the total counts only those. Invalid `page` or `size` answers 400, the same as Activity.
+
+**Media API:** `GET /v1/media/` takes the same `page` and `size`, with the same 400 and the total in `X-Total-Count`; the array body stays. The earlier `cursor` and `limit` parameters are replaced by them.
+
+**Page size memory:** the size chosen on Articles, Activity or Media is remembered for the user and used when the URL has no `size`; an explicit `size` in the URL wins.
+
+**SPA:** never shows that 400. A `size` outside 5, 25, 50, 100 or a `page` that is not a positive integer is replaced in the URL by the default (`history.replace`), silently. A `page` past the last page is replaced by the last page and the notice "That page doesn't exist. Showing the last page." appears.
 
 ## Activity pagination
 `page` and `size`, allowed sizes 5, 25, 50, 100, default 25 (as implemented).

+This release pages the media library, remembers your page size on the article, activity and media lists, and previews image variants on a real sample photo. The media list API changes shape, so read the upgrading notes if you call it.
+
+## New
+
+**Media library**
+
+- The media library is now paged, with a page size of 5, 25, 50 or 100. The image picker in the editor uses the same pages.
+
+**Image variants**
+
+- Creating a variant shows a preview rendered from a real sample image, so the size estimate and the before and after comparison match what visitors will get.
+
+## Improvements and fixes
+
+- The article, activity and media lists keep their page and page size in the address, so a reload or a shared link opens the same view.
+- The Integration page is now fully translated into French.
+
+## API
+
+- Changed: `GET /v1/media/` answers `{ items, total, page, size, counts }` instead of `{ items, next_cursor, counts }`. It accepts `page` (default `1`) and `size` (`5`, `25`, `50` or `100`, default `25`). An invalid value answers `400`.
+- Changed: `GET /v1/media/` no longer accepts `cursor` or `limit`.
+
+## Under the hood
+
+- Replace the cursor and limit of the media list query with a page and a size in the image domain and the list use case.
+- Add specifications, design checks and Go and Vitest suites for the paged media screens.
+
+## Upgrading
+
+- Replace the binary, or pull the new image. There is no schema change and no new environment variable.
+- Any script or site that reads `GET /v1/media/` must now read `total` and loop over `page` instead of following `next_cursor`.

+Feature: Articles list remembers the chosen page size
+
+  As a verified RenewCMS user
+  I want the page size I choose on the Articles list to be remembered
+  So that I do not have to pick it again each time I come back or refresh
+
+  Background:
+    Given this slice amends features/articles_pagination_screen.feature; the URL keeps ?size= as in that spec and no visual or API change is made (docs/design/ is untouched)
+    And the size options stay "5 per page", "25 per page", "50 per page", "100 per page" and the default stays 25
+    And the chosen size is stored in localStorage under the key renewcms-page-size-articles as the bare number (for example 5), one key per paginated list; only the Articles list uses it today
+    And only choosing a size in the page-size select writes the stored value; loading a URL never writes it
+    And an explicit valid ?size= in the URL is authoritative for that load and does not change the stored value
+    And an invalid ?size= in the URL falls back to 25, never to the stored value, and is replaced in the URL (features/articles_pagination_screen.feature scenario 10b)
+    And a stored value that is not 5, 25, 50 or 100 is treated as absent
+    And localStorage that is unavailable or throws on read or write never raises an error or breaks the page: reads act as absent and writes are ignored
+    And logout does not clear the stored size
+    And a size change still resets page to 1 and drops page from the URL
+    And the requests are GET /v1/article/?format=html&page=P&size=S&q=Q&status=T as in features/articles_pagination_api.feature
+
+  Scenario Outline: Choosing a size stores it
+    Given nothing is stored and the user is on /article
+    When the user chooses "<label>" in the page-size select
+    Then localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is "<stored>"
+    And on success the URL is <url>
+
+    Examples:
+      | label        | stored | url               |
+      | 5 per page   | 5      | /article?size=5   |
+      | 25 per page  | 25     | /article          |
+      | 50 per page  | 50     | /article?size=50  |
+      | 100 per page | 100    | /article?size=100 |
+
+  Scenario: The stored size is restored when the list is opened without a size
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is "5"
+    When the user navigates to /article
+    Then GET ...&page=1&size=5 is sent
+    And the page-size select reads "5 per page"
+    And on success the URL is replaced (no history entry) by /article?size=5
+
+  Scenario: The size survives leaving the list and coming back
+    Given the user chose "5 per page" on /article
+    When the user navigates to /, then back to /article
+    Then GET ...&size=5 is sent and the select reads "5 per page"
+
+  Scenario: The size survives a full page refresh
+    Given the user chose "5 per page" on /article
+    When the page is reloaded on /article?size=5, or on /article with the URL typed in without a size
+    Then GET ...&size=5 is sent and the select reads "5 per page"
+
+  Scenario: The stored size is kept across paging, search, tabs and sort
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is "50" and the user is on /article?size=50
+    When the user activates Next, switches to the "Drafts" tab, sorts by Title or searches "plaster"
+    Then every request carries size=50 and the stored value stays "50"
+
+  Scenario: Changing the size again replaces the stored one
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is "5"
+    When the user chooses "100 per page"
+    Then localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is "100"
+    And the next visit to /article without a size sends size=100
+
+  Scenario: Returning to 25 is remembered too
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is "5"
+    When the user chooses "25 per page"
+    Then localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is "25"
+    And the next visit to /article sends size=25 and the URL stays /article
+
+  Scenario: An explicit size in the URL wins and is not stored
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is "5"
+    When the user navigates to /article?size=100
+    Then GET ...&size=100 is sent and the select reads "100 per page"
+    And localStorage renewcms-page-size-articles is still "5"
+    And a later visit to /article sends size=5
+
+  Scenario: An explicit page with no size uses the stored size

+# QA: Articles page-size memory (SPA)
+
+No Go or HTTP test applies: nothing outside web/ changes.
+
+## Automated (Vitest, task test:web)
+
+Extend or sit beside web/src/views/__tests__/ArticlesPagination.spec.ts and reuse articleEnvelope.ts for the mocked GET /v1/article/ envelope (total 312, size from the query). localStorage.clear() in beforeEach; fresh router per test. Assert on the mocked request query string, the select label, the router URL and localStorage.
+
+1. Choosing 5 / 25 / 50 / 100 writes "5" / "25" / "50" / "100" under renewcms-page-size-articles; URLs /article?size=5, /article, ?size=50, ?size=100.
+2. Stored "5", open /article: request carries size=5 and page=1, select reads "5 per page", URL replaced (router.replace, no history entry added) with ?size=5.
+3. Choose 5, navigate to another route and back (mount again): size=5 requested.
+4. Choose 5, remount the app on /article and on /article?size=5 (simulated refresh): size=5 requested.
+5. Stored "50", on ?size=50: Next, Drafts tab, sort Title, search "plaster" (fake timers for the 120 ms debounce, not the system date): every request has size=50, stored value unchanged.
+6. Stored "5", choose 100: stored "100"; remount sends size=100.
+7. Stored "5", choose 25: stored "25"; remount sends size=25, URL /article.
+8. Stored "5", open /article?size=100: size=100 requested, stored still "5"; remount on /article sends size=5.
+9. Stored "5", open /article?page=3: request page=3&size=5, URL replaced by ?page=3&size=5.
+10. Invalid stored values 10, abc, 0, -5, 25.5, "": size=25 requested, select "25 per page", URL /article.
+11. Stored "5", open /article?size=10: size=25 requested, URL /article, stored still "5".
+12. Storage failures (Storage.prototype.getItem throwing; setItem throwing; window.localStorage undefined): no exception, list renders, size=25 on load, choosing 50 requests size=50 and URL ?size=50.
+13. Logout (session store reset) leaves the stored value; the next /article sends size=5.
+14. Unit tests for any read/write helper added next to web/src/lib/pagination.ts: valid values accepted, invalid rejected, errors swallowed.
+
+## Visual (task visual:check -- articles)
+
+No visual change is intended. Run the full articles group as a regression and require every capture within 10 %. Setups use the board's own sample data and must not depend on a stored size. Clear localStorage before each capture so a leftover value cannot change the default 25 frame. No state is clock-sensitive for this slice.
+
+## Manual
+
+- In a real browser, choose 5 per page, navigate away and back, then hard-refresh: it stays at 5.
+- Private-window or storage-blocked browser: the list still works at 25 with no error.
+- Keyboard: the page-size select behaves as before (ArrowDown, Enter, Esc, focus ring), and focus returns to the select after choosing.
+- Open a copied /article?size=100 link in a profile that has 5 stored: the link shows 100 and the next plain visit shows 5.

+Feature: Media page remembers the chosen page size
+
+  As a verified RenewCMS user
+  I want the page size I choose on the Media page to be remembered
+  So that I do not have to pick it again each time I come back or refresh
+
+  Background:
+    Given this slice follows features/articles_page_size_memory.feature and extends features/media_pagination_screen.feature; the URL keeps ?size= as in that spec and no visual or API change is made
+    And the size options stay "5 per page", "25 per page", "50 per page", "100 per page" and the default stays 25
+    And the chosen size is stored in localStorage under the key renewcms-page-size-media as the bare number (for example 5), one key per paginated list; Articles uses renewcms-page-size-articles and Activity renewcms-page-size-activity, and the three do not affect each other
+    And a MEDIA_PAGE_SIZE_KEY constant joins ARTICLES_PAGE_SIZE_KEY and ACTIVITY_PAGE_SIZE_KEY in web/src/lib/pageSizeMemory.ts and the existing readStoredPageSize, storePageSize and resolvePageSize helpers are reused
+    And only choosing a size in the page-size select writes the stored value; loading a URL never writes it
+    And an explicit valid ?size= in the URL is authoritative for that load and does not change the stored value
+    And an invalid ?size= in the URL falls back to 25, never to the stored value, and is replaced in the URL (features/media_pagination_screen.feature)
+    And a stored value that is not 5, 25, 50 or 100 is treated as absent
+    And localStorage that is unavailable or throws on read or write never raises an error or breaks the page: reads act as absent and writes are ignored
+    And logout does not clear the stored size
+    And a size change still resets page to 1 and drops page from the URL
+    And the Duplicates tab ignores the stored size (it always loads with size=100) and never writes it
+    And the picker and hash lookups ignore the stored size (fixed size=25 and size=100)
+    And the requests are GET /v1/media/?filter=F&sort=S&page=P&size=Z as in features/media_pagination_api.feature
+
+  Scenario Outline: Choosing a size stores it
+    Given nothing is stored and the user is on /media
+    When the user chooses "<label>" in the page-size select
+    Then localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "<stored>"
+    And on success the URL is <url>
+
+    Examples:
+      | label        | stored | url             |
+      | 5 per page   | 5      | /media?size=5   |
+      | 25 per page  | 25     | /media          |
+      | 50 per page  | 50     | /media?size=50  |
+      | 100 per page | 100    | /media?size=100 |
+
+  Scenario: The stored size is restored when the page is opened without a size
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "5"
+    When the user navigates to /media
+    Then GET ...&page=1&size=5 is sent
+    And the page-size select reads "5 per page"
+    And on success the URL is replaced (no history entry) by /media?size=5
+
+  Scenario: The size survives leaving the page and coming back
+    Given the user chose "5 per page" on /media
+    When the user navigates to /, then back to /media
+    Then GET ...&size=5 is sent and the select reads "5 per page"
+
+  Scenario: The size survives a full page refresh
+    Given the user chose "5 per page" on /media
+    When the page is reloaded on /media?size=5, or on /media with the URL typed in without a size
+    Then GET ...&size=5 is sent and the select reads "5 per page"
+
+  Scenario: The stored size is kept across paging, search, tabs, sort and view
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "50" and the user is on /media?size=50
+    When the user activates Next, switches to the "Unused" tab, sorts by "Largest", switches to list view or searches "wall"
+    Then every request carries size=50 and the stored value stays "50"
+
+  Scenario: Changing the size again replaces the stored one
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "5"
+    When the user chooses "100 per page"
+    Then localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "100"
+    And the next visit to /media without a size sends size=100
+
+  Scenario: Returning to 25 is remembered too
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "5"
+    When the user chooses "25 per page"
+    Then localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "25"
+    And the next visit to /media sends size=25 and the URL stays /media
+
+  Scenario: An explicit size in the URL wins and is not stored
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "5"
+    When the user navigates to /media?size=100
+    Then GET ...&size=100 is sent and the select reads "100 per page"
+    And localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is still "5"
+    And a later visit to /media sends size=5
+
+  Scenario: An explicit page with no size uses the stored size
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "5"
+    When the user navigates to /media?page=3
+    Then GET ...&page=3&size=5 is sent and on success the URL is replaced by /media?page=3&size=5
+
+  Scenario Outline: An invalid stored value falls back to 25
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "<stored>"
+    When the user navigates to /media
+    Then GET ...&page=1&size=25 is sent, the select reads "25 per page" and the URL is /media
+
+    Examples:
+      | stored |
+      | 10     |
+      | abc    |
+      | 0      |
+      | -5     |
+      | 25.5   |
+      |        |
+
+  Scenario: An invalid size in the URL ignores the stored one
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "5"
+    When the user navigates to /media?size=10
+    Then GET ... is sent with size=25 and the URL is replaced by /media
+    And localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is still "5"
+
+  Scenario Outline: Unavailable storage never breaks the page
+    Given localStorage <failure>
+    When the user navigates to /media
+    Then GET ...&page=1&size=25 is sent, the page renders and no error is shown
+    When the user chooses "50 per page"
+    Then GET ...&page=1&size=50 is sent and the URL is /media?size=50
+
+    Examples:
+      | failure                   |
+      | throws on getItem         |
+      | throws on setItem (quota) |
+      | is undefined              |
+
+  Scenario: Logging out keeps the stored size
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "5"
+    When the user logs out and logs in again and opens /media
+    Then GET ...&size=5 is sent
+
+  Scenario: The three lists keep separate sizes
+    Given localStorage has renewcms-page-size-articles "50", renewcms-page-size-activity "100" and renewcms-page-size-media "5"
+    When the user opens /article, /activity and /media in turn without a size
+    Then they send size=50, size=100 and size=5 respectively
+
+  Scenario: The Duplicates tab ignores the stored size
+    Given localStorage renewcms-page-size-media is "5"
+    When the user opens /media?filter=duplicates
+    Then the requests carry size=100, the stored value stays "5", and returning to the "All" tab sends size=5

+# QA: Media page size memory (SPA)
+
+## Automated (Vitest + Vue Test Utils, `task test:web`)
+
+Add `web/src/views/__tests__/MediaPageSizeMemory.spec.ts`, mirroring `ArticlesPageSizeMemory.spec.ts` and `ActivityPageSizeMemory.spec.ts`: stub `localStorage` per test (a `Storage` fake, plus variants whose `getItem` or `setItem` throws, and `undefined`), use the `/v1/media/` mock of `mediaTestKit.ts` that honours `page` and `size`, and a real router. Extend `web/src/lib/__tests__/pageSizeMemory.spec.ts` for `MEDIA_PAGE_SIZE_KEY`.
+
+1. Choose a size table (5, 25, 50, 100) with nothing stored: stored value per the table and URLs `/media?size=5`, `/media`, `/media?size=50`, `/media?size=100`.
+2. Stored 5, open `/media`: request `size=5`, select reads "5 per page", URL replaced (not pushed) by `/media?size=5`.
+3. Leave and come back (navigate to `/` then `/media`): `size=5`.
+4. Reload on `/media?size=5` and on `/media` with a fresh mount: `size=5`.
+5. Stored 50: Next, "Unused" tab, "Largest" sort, list view and search "wall" each carry `size=50`; the stored value stays "50".
+6. Choose 100 after 5: stored "100", next visit `size=100`. Choose 25 after 5: stored "25", URL stays `/media`.
+7. Explicit `?size=100` with stored 5: request `size=100`, stored still "5", later visit `size=5`.
+8. `?page=3` with stored 5: request `page=3&size=5`, URL replaced by `/media?page=3&size=5`.
+9. Invalid stored table (`10`, `abc`, `0`, `-5`, `25.5`, empty): request `size=25`, URL `/media`.
+10. Invalid URL `?size=10` with stored 5: request `size=25`, URL `/media`, stored still "5".
+11. Unavailable storage table (throws on getItem, throws on setItem, undefined): page renders, no error, `size=25`, then choosing 50 sends `size=50` and URL `/media?size=50`.
+12. Logout and login keeps the key (clear the auth store only; storage untouched), then `/media` sends `size=5`.
+13. Separate keys: articles 50, activity 100, media 5 -> the three views send 50, 100 and 5.
+14. Duplicates tab: stored 5 -> requests carry `size=100`, stored unchanged, returning to All sends `size=5`.
+15. Unit test of the lib: `readStoredPageSize`, `storePageSize` and `resolvePageSize` with the media key and the valid sizes 5/25/50/100.
+
+No Visual part: no visual or design change.
+
+## Manual verification
+
+- In a real browser (`task dev`): choose "5 per page", refresh, close and reopen the tab, confirm the select and the URL; in DevTools confirm only `renewcms-page-size-media` changed.
+- Block storage (private mode or disabled site data) and confirm the page still works.

+Feature: Paginated media listing
+
+  As an API consumer, the RenewCMS media page or the editor picker
+  I want GET /v1/media/ to answer one page of images with the total and the library-wide counts
+  So that large libraries load quickly and every consumer pages the same way
+
+  Background:
+    Given GET /v1/media/ is mounted inside the jwtauth.Verifier + Authenticator group of api/router.go, unchanged
+    And BREAKING CHANGE: the body is {"items": [...], "total": N, "page": P, "size": S, "counts": {"all": A, "unused": U, "duplicates": D}} in snake_case; next_cursor is removed and no X-Total-Count header is sent
+    And each item is the existing media item (id, filename, url, size, content_type, width, height, sha256, uploaded_by, created_at, used_in, duplicate, variant_count, variant_size) and items is [] rather than null
+    And paging follows the Activity and Articles convention: page is an integer >= 1 (default 1), size is one of 5, 25, 50, 100 (default 25)
+    And q, hash, filter (all, unused, duplicates), sort (newest, oldest, name, largest, total_size) and variants (with, without) keep their current meaning and validation; the default order is newest
+    And total is the number of images matching q, hash, filter and variants, before paging; page and size echo the values applied
+    And counts stays library-wide: it ignores q, hash, filter, variants and paging
+    And ordering is applied to the whole matching list before slicing, with id as the final tie-break, so pages never overlap or skip (newest and total_size are made deterministic; oldest, name and largest already tie on id)
+    And a page beyond the last answers 200 with items [] and the real total
+    And any invalid page, size, filter, sort, variants or hash answers 400 with the plain-text body "The media query is invalid." (apperr.MediaQueryErrorMessage); page and size are validated with validate tags through validator.Validate.Struct
+    And cursor and limit are no longer parameters: they are ignored, never an error, and have no effect on paging
+    And ListMediaUseCase reaches data only through domain interfaces; the domain ListQuery carries Page and Size instead of Cursor and Limit; the handler never touches a repository
+    And the SPA sends explicit page and size on every list call
+
+  Scenario: A bare request answers the envelope with the defaults
+    Given the library holds 30 images
+    When a verified client sends GET /v1/media/
+    Then the status is 200
+    And the body has page 1, size 25, total 30, 25 items and counts {"all": 30, "unused": U, "duplicates": D}
+    And the body has no next_cursor key
+
+  Scenario Outline: Defaults when only one parameter is given
+    Given the library holds 60 images
+    When a verified client sends GET /v1/media/?<query>
+    Then the body has page <page>, size <size>, total 60 and <count> items
+
+    Examples:
+      | query    | page | size | count |
+      | page=2   | 2    | 25   | 25    |
+      | page=3   | 3    | 25   | 10    |
+      | size=5   | 1    | 5    | 5     |
+      | size=50  | 1    | 50   | 50    |
+      | size=100 | 1    | 100  | 60    |
+
+  Scenario: Pages partition the list with no overlap
+    Given the library holds 12 images
+    When a client requests ?page=1&size=5, ?page=2&size=5 and ?page=3&size=5
+    Then the pages hold 5, 5 and 2 items, total is 12 on each, and no id repeats
+
+  Scenario: Newest first with the id tie-break
+    Given images id 1 uploaded 2026-09-01, id 2 and id 3 uploaded 2026-09-03
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?size=5
+    Then the item ids are 3, 2, 1
+
+  Scenario Outline: Sort orders the whole library before paging
+    Given 12 images with distinct names, sizes and dates
+    When a client requests ?sort=<sort>&size=5 for pages 1, 2 and 3
+    Then the pages hold the whole ordered list in <order> with no repeat
+
+    Examples:
+      | sort       | order                                                   |
+      | newest     | created_at descending                                   |
+      | oldest     | created_at ascending                                    |
+      | name       | filename stem, case-insensitive ascending               |
+      | largest    | size descending                                         |
+      | total_size | original size plus generated variant bytes, descending  |
+
+  Scenario: Filter and variants narrow total and items but not the counts
+    Given 40 images of which 6 are unused and 3 hold generated variants, and the library counts are {"all": 40, "unused": 6, "duplicates": 2}
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?filter=unused&size=5
+    Then total is 6, the page holds 5 items and counts is {"all": 40, "unused": 6, "duplicates": 2}
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?variants=with
+    Then total is 3 and counts is unchanged
+
+  Scenario: Search combines with paging
+    Given 7 images whose filename contains "wall" and 20 others
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?q=wall&size=5&page=2
+    Then total is 7, the page holds 2 items and counts.all is 27
+
+  Scenario: Hash lookup returns every copy in one page
+    Given 3 images share the sha256 H
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?hash=H&page=1&size=100
+    Then total is 3 and items has the 3 copies
+
+  Scenario: Hash lookup with no paging uses the defaults
+    Given 3 images share the sha256 H
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?hash=H
+    Then the body has page 1, size 25, total 3 and 3 items
+
+  Scenario: A page beyond the last is empty with the real total
+    Given the library holds 12 images
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?page=99&size=5
+    Then the status is 200, items is [], total is 12, page is 99, size is 5 and counts.all is 12
+
+  Scenario: An empty library
+    Given the library is empty
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/
+    Then the status is 200, items is [], total is 0 and counts is {"all": 0, "unused": 0, "duplicates": 0}
+
+  Scenario: counts ignores every filter and the page
+    Given the library holds 30 images
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?q=zzzz&page=3&size=5
+    Then items is [], total is 0 and counts.all is 30
+
+  Scenario Outline: cursor and limit are ignored
+    Given the library holds 30 images
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?<query>
+    Then the status is 200 and the body has page 1, size 25 and 25 items
+
+    Examples:
+      | query              |
+      | cursor=abc         |
+      | limit=5            |
+      | limit=0            |
+      | limit=abc          |
+      | cursor=b2Zmc2V0OjU |
+
+  Scenario Outline: Invalid parameters answer 400
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?<query>
+    Then the status is 400
+    And the body is "The media query is invalid."
+    And the repository was not called
+
+    Examples:
+      | query            |
+      | page=0           |
+      | page=-1          |
+      | page=abc         |
+      | page=            |
+      | page=1.5         |
+      | size=0           |
+      | size=10          |
+      | size=200         |
+      | size=abc         |
+      | size=            |
+      | page=0&size=5    |
+      | page=1&size=1000 |
+      | filter=archived  |
+      | sort=biggest     |
+      | variants=        |
+      | variants=other   |
+      | hash=notahash    |
+
+  Scenario: Repository failure answers 500
+    Given the repository fails on its next call
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/
+    Then the status is 500 and the body is "Internal server error"
+
+  Scenario: An unauthenticated caller is refused as before
+    When a client sends GET /v1/media/?page=1&size=5 without a valid jwt cookie
+    Then the response is the unchanged 401 of the auth group and the use case is not called

Mount on a fresh `chi.NewRouter()` mirroring the media router in `api/router.go` (GET / inside `jwtauth.Verifier` + `jwtauth.Authenticator`, test `jwtauth.New("HS256", ...)`, valid `jwt` cookie with a `user_id` claim of a verified user).

+## Docs (verified by reading the diff)
+
+- `docs/api.md` lines 99-103: replace `cursor` and `limit` with `page` (default 1) and `size` (5, 25, 50, 100; default 25); state the envelope (`items`, `total`, `page`, `size`, `counts`), that `counts` stays library-wide, that invalid values answer 400 "The media query is invalid.", and a "Breaking change" note: `next_cursor` is gone, `cursor` and `limit` are ignored.
+- `docs/api/*.md`: grep for `/v1/media/` and `cursor`; update the media listing section if one exists.
+- `web/src/data/apiCatalogue.ts` `med-list`: add `page`, `size`, `q`, `filter`, `sort`, `variants`, `hash` query entries, the 400 error, and a paged example (`total`, `page`, `size`, no `next_cursor`). Remove the `next_cursor` rule (line ~129, with its French entry in `web/src/i18n/messages.ts` line ~1606) if it is only used by media. Integration specs asserting the catalogue are amended.
+- Flag for the user (read-only to agents): `docs/design/screens/integration.md` and `docs/design/source/IntegrationPage.dc.html` (med-list with no params), `docs/design/screens/media.md`, `routes.md`, `change-list.md` item 13b, `README.md` line 92 and `screens/media-picker.md`: all still say "array body" and "X-Total-Count".
+- A release note under `docs/releases/` is the maintainer's call: flag it.
+
+## Manual verification
+
+- Real SQLite file via `task dev`: seed 60 images, check page=2&size=25, ordering by each sort and counts; the same on MySQL/PostgreSQL if available (no live DB in tests).
+- An authenticated curl returns the envelope with no `next_cursor`.

+Feature: Media page pagination
+
+  As a verified owner or admin with many images
+  I want the Media library split into pages with a page-size menu and shareable URLs
+  So that I can browse a large library quickly and come back to the same page
+
+  Background:
+    Given /media is the verified Media route (features/media_browse.feature), per docs/design/routes.md "Pagination in the URL (Articles, Media)" and docs/design/screens/media.md states 44-52
+    And the Paginator and PageSizeSelect are the existing components used by Articles (AppPaginator.vue); no new component is created
+    And the page requests GET /v1/media/?q=Q&filter=F&sort=S&variants=V&page=P&size=Z and reads {items, total, page, size, counts} (features/media_pagination_api.feature); q and variants are sent only when set; page and size are always sent explicitly; the tab counts come from counts and do not change while searching
+    And page and size live in the URL: ?page=&size=, next to the existing q, filter, sort, variants and view; the defaults (page 1, size 25) are omitted from the URL
+    And an invalid or missing size falls back to the stored size (features/media_page_size_memory.feature) or 25, and an invalid page (not an integer >= 1) falls back to 1, both silently replaced in the URL with history.replace and never shown as an error
+    And a change to search, tab, sort, view, the variants filter or the page size resets page to 1 (and drops it from the URL); search keeps its 120 ms debounce
+    And the URL changes when a response succeeds, not when the request is sent
+    And the summary reads "Showing {from}–{to} of {total}" with locale-formatted numbers, from total (the filtered count), under the grid or list
+    And the Paginator has First, Previous, page numbers with ellipses marking skipped ranges, Next, Last, and the page-size select "5 per page", "25 per page", "50 per page", "100 per page" (it opens upward)
+    And the current page uses --rc-sand fill, --rc-on-sand text and a --ui-primary border and has aria-current="page"; disabled controls are at 40 % opacity; buttons are 32 px (44 px on mobile)
+    And on mobile the paginator is Previous, "Page N of M" and Next
+    And the paginator is hidden when total fits on one page; the summary and the page-size select stay
+    And the paginator sits under the grid in grid view and under the table (md and up) or card list (below md) in list view; its exact placement is taken from the board frame docs/design/source/MediaFrame.dc.html, not from components.md prose
+    And keyboard: Tab reaches the page-size select, first, previous, each page, next, last; Enter or Space activates; ArrowDown opens the page-size list, Enter selects, Esc closes; every control shows a 2 px --ui-primary focus outline with a 2 px offset
+    And the Duplicates tab (?filter=duplicates) is not paginated: it loads the whole duplicate set with size=100, requesting page 1, 2, ... until the loaded count reaches total, groups it by sha256 as today, shows no paginator, summary or page-size select, and drops page and size from the URL
+    And "Select all" covers the images on the current page only and reads "{n} images" for that page; changing page, size, search, tab, sort or view clears the selection
+    And the silent background refresh after a delete, upload or merge reloads the current page with no skeleton; when the current page has become empty and is past the last page, the list steps back to the last page and replaces the URL
+    And the first load and a change of search, tab or sort keep the existing skeleton after 150 ms and the "Couldn't load your images" alert (media.md states 4 and 42); the page-change error below applies only when images are already shown
+    And the fixture below is total 312, size 25 (13 pages) unless stated, with the board's own sample data
+
+  Scenario: 44 First page
+    Given GET /v1/media/?filter=all&sort=newest&page=1&size=25 resolves 200 with 25 items, total 312 and counts {all 312, unused 2, duplicates 2}
+    When the user navigates to /media
+    Then the summary reads "Showing 1–25 of 312"
+    And First and Previous are disabled, page 1 is current, Next and Last are enabled
+    And the URL has no page or size
+
+  Scenario: 45 Middle page
+    Given GET ...&page=7&size=25 resolves 200 with 25 items and total 312
+    When the user navigates to /media?page=7
+    Then the summary reads "Showing 151–175 of 312"
+    And page 7 is current with --rc-sand / --rc-on-sand and aria-current="page"
+    And ellipses mark the skipped ranges and every control is enabled
+
+  Scenario: 46 Last page
+    Given GET ...&page=13&size=25 resolves 200 with 12 items and total 312
+    When the user navigates to /media?page=13
+    Then the summary reads "Showing 301–312 of 312"
+    And Next and Last are disabled
+
+  Scenario: Single page
+    Given GET /v1/media/ resolves 200 with 12 items, total 12 and counts {all 12, unused 2, duplicates 2}
+    When the user navigates to /media
+    Then the summary reads "Showing 1–12 of 12" and the page-size select stays
+    And the paginator (First ... Last) is not rendered
+
+  Scenario: 47 List view, desktop and mobile
+    Given page 2 of 13 is shown with ?view=list
+    Then at md width or more the paginator sits under the table with the page numbers
+    And below md it sits under the card list as Previous, "Page 2 of 13", Next with 44 px controls and no page numbers
+    And in grid view on mobile the paginator is the same Previous, "Page 2 of 13", Next
+
+  Scenario: 48 Loading next page
+    Given the first page has loaded and GET ...&page=2 has not resolved
+    When the user activates Next
+    Then skeleton cards keep the grid height and the list is aria-busy="true"
+    And every paginator control is disabled and the summary reads "Loading page 2…"
+    When the request resolves 200
+    Then the images and summary of page 2 appear and the URL becomes /media?page=2
+
+  Scenario Outline: 49 Error loading a page keeps the previous images
+    Given page 6 is shown
+    When the user activates Next and GET ...&page=7 <failure>
+    Then the page-6 images stay, the URL stays /media?page=6 and the controls are re-enabled
+    And a notice reads "Couldn't load page 7. Showing page 6." with a "Retry" action
+    When the user activates "Retry"
+    Then GET ...&page=7 is sent again and, on 200, page 7 replaces the images, the URL becomes ?page=7 and the notice goes
+
+    Examples:
+      | failure                      |
+      | resolves with a 500 response |
+      | never reaches the server     |
+
+  Scenario: 50 Page out of range redirects to the last page with a notice
+    Given GET ...&page=99 resolves 200 with items [] and total 312
+    When the user navigates to /media?page=99
+    Then the URL is replaced (no history entry) by /media?page=13 and GET ...&page=13 is sent
+    And the notice reads "That page doesn't exist. Showing the last page."
+    And the last-page state (46) is shown
+
+  Scenario: Out of range with total 0 shows the empty state, no redirect
+    Given GET ...&page=5 resolves 200 with items [] and total 0 and counts.all 0
+    When the user navigates to /media?page=5
+    Then the "No images yet" empty state shows and the URL is /media
+
+  Scenario: Out of range after a search with total 0 shows no results
+    Given GET ...&q=zzzz&page=5 resolves 200 with items [], total 0 and counts.all 312
+    When the user navigates to /media?q=zzzz&page=5
+    Then the no-results state (media.md state 6) shows and the URL is /media?q=zzzz
+
+  Scenario Outline: Search, tab, sort, view and variants changes reset to page 1
+    Given the user is on /media?page=7
+    When the user <action> and the request resolves
+    Then GET ... carries page=1
+    And on success the URL has no page
+    And the tab counts are unchanged by a search
+
+    Examples:
+      | action                                                    |
+      | types "wall" in the search field and the debounce elapses |
+      | selects the "Unused" tab                                  |
+      | picks "Largest" in the sort menu                          |
+      | activates the list icon in the grid toggle                |
+      | applies the "With variants" filter                        |
+
+  Scenario Outline: 51 Page size menu
+    Given the user is on /media?page=3
+    When the user opens the page-size select (it opens upward) and chooses "<label>"
+    Then GET ...&page=1&size=<size> is sent and, on success, the URL is <url>
+
+    Examples:
+      | label        | size | url             |
+      | 5 per page   | 5    | /media?size=5   |
+      | 25 per page  | 25   | /media          |
+      | 50 per page  | 50   | /media?size=50  |
+      | 100 per page | 100  | /media?size=100 |
+
+  Scenario Outline: Invalid URL values fall back silently
+    When the user navigates to /media?<query>
+    Then GET ... is sent with page=1 and size=25 and the URL is replaced by /media with no history entry
+    And no error or notice is shown
+
+    Examples:
+      | query            |
+      | size=10&page=abc |
+      | page=0           |
+      | page=-2          |
+      | page=1.5         |
+      | size=0           |
+      | size=200         |
+
+  Scenario: Pagination is kept across the other controls
+    Given the URL is /media?size=50&sort=largest&filter=unused
+    When the user activates Next
+    Then every request carries size=50, sort=largest and filter=unused and the URL keeps them
+
+  Scenario: 52 Focus-visible
+    When the user tabs to Next
+    Then Next shows a 2 px --ui-primary outline with a 2 px offset
+    And the same ring shows on every paginator control and on the page-size select
+
+  Scenario: Keyboard, the page-size list
+    When the user focuses the page-size select and presses ArrowDown
+    Then the list opens; Enter selects the highlighted size; Esc closes it and returns focus to the select
+
+  Scenario: Select all covers the current page only
+    Given page 2 of 13 is shown with 25 images
+    Then the "Select all" row reads "Select all" and "25 images"
+    When the user activates "Select all"
+    Then 25 images are selected and the bulk bar announces "25 selected"
+    When the user activates Next and page 3 loads
+    Then no image is selected and the bulk bar is gone
+
+  Scenario: The Duplicates tab loads the whole set and shows no paginator
+    Given 130 images are duplicates, GET ...&filter=duplicates&sort=newest&page=1&size=100 resolves 200 with 100 items and total 130
+    And GET ...&filter=duplicates&page=2&size=100 resolves 200 with the remaining 30 items
+    When the user navigates to /media?filter=duplicates&page=4&size=5
+    Then page 1 and page 2 are requested with size=100, page 2 only because 100 < 130
+    And the groups are built from the 130 images, with no paginator, summary or page-size select
+    And the URL is replaced by /media?filter=duplicates
+
+  Scenario: Leaving the Duplicates tab returns to the paginated list
+    Given the Duplicates tab is shown
+    When the user selects the "All" tab
+    Then GET ...&filter=all&page=1&size=25 is sent and the paginator is shown
+
+  Scenario: Deleting the last image of the last page
+    Given the user is on the last page with a single image and deletes it (204)
+    Then the list reloads the previous page in the background and the URL is replaced by it
+    And the tab counts are recomputed from the new response
+
+  Scenario: A background refresh keeps the current page
+    Given page 7 is shown and the user renames, uploads or merges
+    Then the list is requested again in the background for page 7 with no skeleton
+
+  Scenario: Hash lookups do not touch the page
+    When the detail panel or the upload duplicate check looks up copies of an image
+    Then GET /v1/media/?hash=H&page=1&size=100 is sent, the URL does not change and the paginator is unaffected

+# QA: Media page pagination (SPA)
+
+## Automated (Vitest + Vue Test Utils, `task test:web`)
+
+Mock `/v1/media/` the way `web/src/views/__tests__/mediaTestKit.ts` does, extended so the mock honours `page` and `size`, builds the envelope `{items, total, page, size, counts}` and has no `next_cursor`. Use the 312-image fixture (25 per page) from the board's data in `docs/design/source/MediaFrame.dc.html`. Mount `MediaView` with a real router and Pinia. Reuse the helpers of `ArticlesPagination.spec.ts`.
+
+One test per state:
+1. 44 First page: request `?filter=all&sort=newest&page=1&size=25`; "Showing 1–25 of 312"; First/Previous disabled; URL without page or size.
+2. 45 Middle page: `/media?page=7` -> "Showing 151–175 of 312"; `aria-current="page"` on 7; ellipses.
+3. 46 Last page: `/media?page=13` -> 12 items, "Showing 301–312 of 312"; Next/Last disabled.
+4. Single page: total 12 -> summary, page-size select, no First..Last.
+5. 47 List view: `?view=list&page=2` -> paginator under the table (md) and the card list (below md, the "Page 2 of 13" form).
+6. 48 Loading next page: pending page 2 -> skeleton cards, `aria-busy`, controls disabled, "Loading page 2…"; resolve -> URL `/media?page=2`.
+7. 49 Error (500, network): previous images stay, URL unchanged, notice "Couldn't load page 7. Showing page 6." with Retry; Retry succeeds -> `?page=7`, notice gone.
+8. 50 Out of range: `?page=99` with items [] and total 312 -> URL replaced by `?page=13` (assert `router.replace`, history length unchanged), notice text exact, last-page state.
+9. Total 0 out of range: empty state, URL `/media`; with `q` -> no-results state.
+10. Reset to page 1: table of search (120 ms debounce with fake timers on the timer only, never the system date), tab, sort, view, variants filter -> request carries `page=1`, URL has no page.
+11. 51 Page-size menu table: 5, 25, 50, 100 -> request `page=1&size=N`; URLs per the table.
+12. Invalid URL table (`size=10&page=abc`, `page=0`, `page=-2`, `page=1.5`, `size=0`, `size=200`): request page=1 size=25, URL replaced, no notice or alert.
+13. Controls kept: Next with `size=50&sort=largest&filter=unused` keeps every param.
+14. 52 Focus and keyboard: tab order select, first, previous, pages, next, last; ArrowDown opens, Enter selects, Esc closes and refocuses.
+15. Select all: "25 images", 25 selected, page change clears the selection and the bulk bar.
+16. Duplicates tab: with 130 duplicates, assert requests page=1 and page=2 at size=100, groups built from all 130, no paginator, URL drops page and size; selecting All returns to the paginated request.
+17. Last-image delete: steps back one page and replaces the URL; counts refreshed.
+18. Background refresh after rename/upload/merge: same page, no skeleton.
+19. Hash lookups send `hash=H&page=1&size=100` (`findCopies`, `useMediaUpload`, `ImageUploader`).
+20. Amended existing specs: every spec reading `next_cursor`, `limit=100`, `MEDIA_PAGE_LIMIT` or the old `/v1/media/?` mocks is migrated to the envelope and page/size requests; list them in the diff.
+
+## Visual (`task visual:check -- media`)
+
+Hard gate: every capture within 10 % at 1440×900 and 390×844, light and dark. Add `web/visual/states.ts` setups using the board's own sample data (312 images, 25 per page; filenames, sizes, uploaders and dates taken from the frame's script in `docs/design/source/MediaFrame.dc.html`; counts all 312 / unused 2 / duplicates 2):
+
+| State | Setup |
+| --- | --- |
+| 44 Pagination: first page | `/media`, page 1 of 13 |
+| 45 middle page | `/media?page=7` |
+| 46 last page | `/media?page=13`, 12 items |
+| 47 list view | `/media?view=list&page=2` |
+| 48 loading next page | page 2 pending |
+| 49 error loading a page | page 7 fails, page 6 shown |
+| 50 page out of range | `/media?page=99` replaced by `?page=13` with the notice |
+| 51 page-size menu | select open upward |
+| 52 focus-visible | Next focused |
+
+If a frame renders a relative date or greeting, mark that state `skip: clock-sensitive` and write no date-frozen test. The paginator's placement under the grid or list is checked against the board frame's markup, not `components.md` prose.
+
+## Manual verification

+- Keyboard: tab order and focus ring on every paginator control; ArrowDown/Enter/Esc in the page-size list; grid arrow-key navigation still works after a page change; focus is sensible after Next.
+- Hover and motion on the paginator and skeleton.
+- A real library of 60+ images through `task dev`: paging, size change, page past the end replaced with the notice, Duplicates tab loading beyond 100 duplicates.
+- Screen reader: the summary and "Loading page N…" are announced; selection announcements after a page change.
