File > New restarted its counter every day while names only carry the
year, so the first nest of each day was always N26-223, and each PC kept
its own counter. In Database mode the nest server now hands out the
year's next number (POST /api/nest-names/next, nest_sequences table,
schema v6), staying above every stored generated name so offline or
pre-existing names are never reissued. The per-PC counter remains the
fallback when the server is unreachable or older, resets per year, and
is raised past each server allocation.

GET /api/nests/query filters name, customer, material, made by, comments
and status (stored and display names) with an escaped LIKE parameter,
orders newest saved first with an id tie-break, and returns one page of
at most 500 records plus the total match count, read in one database
hold. Unknown, repeated or out-of-range parameters return 400.
RemoteNestRepository.QueryAsync validates the same bounds before
sending, rejects oversized pages, and reports a 404 from an older server
as a server that needs updating. GET /api/nests stays the full
enumeration used by backup, restore checks and the container smoke.
NestStorageSettings persists the file/database toggle and server URL at
%APPDATA%\OpenNest\storage.json following the EngineSelectionSettings
never-throwing pattern; missing config means File mode. NestRecord carries
the shareable job metadata, INestRepository defines the backend contract,
and RemoteNestRepository implements it against the nest server with
multipart uploads (metadata JSON part + .nest file part).
