Upgrade StorageReport ID: 674557569 Intermittent Auto-Move Failure and "PDF" Title Fallback on iCloud Shared Folder
[Proposed Technical Fix for Developer]
Problem: The current trigger relies on a static delay. This fails when Zotero 8's background indexing (especially for Korean/NFD) takes longer than the delay.
The Bug: If the move fails once due to an iCloud file-lock, ZotMoov doesn't retry, leading to a permanent "PDF" title and broken link.
Solution Suggestion: Instead of a static delay, implement a "File-Ready Check" or a "Retry Loop" that waits until the file is actually unlocked and renamed by Zotero before attempting the move.
### Environment
- Zotero: 8.0.3 Mac - Win
- Plugin: ZotMoov (Latest)
- Storage: iCloud Drive (Family Shared Folder)
- Special Condition: Parent items already containing long Korean/English abstracts.
### Summary of the Issue
Even with default settings (`delay: 5000`, `rename_title: true`), ZotMoov fails to move files to the cloud or breaks the DB link (showing "PDF" as the title) when adding attachments to items with heavy metadata.
### Technical Findings
1. Race Condition: Zotero 8's async indexing (especially Korean NFD) and iCloud's aggressive file-locking conflict with ZotMoov's move trigger.
2. Asynchronous Truncation: Differences in metadata (Abstract presence) cause Zotero to finalize filenames at different speeds, leading to "PDF" fallback if ZotMoov triggers before the DB update.
3. Current Workaround: Increasing `auto_process_delay` to 10,000ms and reducing `truncate` in renaming rules to match iCloud's path limits helps, but a robust "Retry" mechanism is needed for Zotero 8.
