+# DirectoryScanReceiver
+
+`DirectoryScanReceiver` is a small TCP server that receives file data over a simple delimiter-based protocol and writes files into an `output` directory.
+
+It is the receiver counterpart to [`DirectoryScanSender`](../DirectoryScanSender), and both projects can work together out of the box with the current default settings.
+
+## Companion Project
+
+- Sender counterpart: [`DirectoryScanSender`](../DirectoryScanSender)
+- Shared default TCP port: `7156`
+
+## Shared Protocol
+
+Both projects use the same message format:
+
+```text
+<path>|<length>|<content>\r\n\r\n
+```
+
+- `path`: file path string sent by the sender
+- `length`: declared payload length
+- `content`: payload content
+
+Multiple messages can be sent over the same TCP connection, each terminated by `\r\n\r\n`.
+
+## Features
+
+- Listens for TCP connections on port `7156`
+- Accepts multiple file messages over a connection
+- Writes files to an `output` directory next to the executable
+- Creates subdirectories when needed
+- Skips existing files (no overwrite)
+- Prevents writing outside the `output` directory
+
+## Runtime Behavior
+
+- The server waits for incoming TCP connections.
+- Each valid message is parsed and written as one file.
+- Empty or invalid messages are ignored.
+- The `output` directory is cleared once when the application starts.
+
+Console output includes connection events, received payload sizes, and written file paths.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- .NET SDK with support for `net10.0`
+
+## Build and Run
+
+From the repository root:
+
+```bash
+dotnet build
+dotnet run --project DirectoryScanReceiver
+```
+
+The server prints messages such as:
+
+- `Started Server!`
+- `Waiting for data!`
+
+## Test Message Example
+
+Using `nc` (netcat):
+
+```bash
+printf 'hello.txt|5|hello\r\n\r\n' | nc 127.0.0.1 7156
+```
+
+This writes `hello.txt` into the receiver's `output` directory.
+
+Subdirectories are also supported:
+
+```bash
+printf 'subdir/note.txt|11|hello world\r\n\r\n' | nc 127.0.0.1 7156
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- The protocol is simple and delimiter-based.
+- The receiver is intended to be used with [`DirectoryScanSender`](../DirectoryScanSender) or another sender that follows the same message format.
+- The current defaults match the local `DirectoryScanSender` project (`localhost:7156`).
+- The service uses plain TCP and does not include authentication or encryption.
