# GET /encryption/state

`GET /encryption/state`

Returns the current encryption state and session readiness.

## Response `200`

Encryption state retrieved

- EncryptionStateEnvelope — Canonical success envelope: `{ "data": T, "ts": <unix millis i64> }`. `ts` is `chrono::Utc::now().timestamp_millis()`, set in the webserver handler via [`ApiEnvelope::now`] (the contract carries only the type + the clock helper, not a hard dependency on when the handler reads the clock). `rename_all = "camelCase"` is a no-op for the single-word fields here but is declared for forward-compat. IMPORTANT (utoipa v4): every concrete `ApiEnvelope<X>` that needs a named OpenAPI component is declared in the `#[aliases(...)]` block below. Add a new alias line whenever a new payload type needs enveloping. NEVER register the bare `ApiEnvelope` in `components(schemas(...))` — utoipa errors on a bare generic, and an un-aliased generic inlines an anonymous schema.
  - `data` EncryptionStateResponse, required — Response payload for GET /encryption/state. `Deserialize` is required by the Rust daemon-client (`DaemonQueryClient`), which polls this endpoint during cold-launch startup restore to wait until the encryption session is unlocked before reading/writing encrypted history (issue #1169).
    - `initialized` boolean, required
    - `sessionReady` boolean, required
  - `ts` integer, required — Server time when the response was built (unix epoch milliseconds).
