The nine Capture tables (files, jobs, folders, shares, links, quota, cookies, profiles, library
resume points) leave app/models.py for the unit's own module; app.tables registers every unit's
tables for the migrations, the test database and the ownership check. No schema change.
The Files library starts here. A user's every download, clip and upload now
lands in a source folder made per origin (YouTube, Plex clips, uploads, one per
other site), decided once in downloads/folders.py at every place a job is made.
How long a file stays moves from the shared asset to the user's job: stamped
from its folder when it is done, never for a file the user keeps. The GC warns
each user once, then takes the expired file out of their library; the cache cap
never evicts a kept file, and an evicted one leaves every holder's library.
The media mount is /files now (FILES_ROOT, FILES_HOST_PATH, volume
siftlode_files); docs/self-hosting.md says how to carry an old volume over.
Migration 0102 places every existing job and carries each done file's expiry
over from its asset.
safe_abs_path takes a missing path and answers None, which drops one baselined
type error.
The code cited its plan instead of saying why: `E28 review J4`, `(R6 S3b)`, `S1 justified…`,
`deep-review round 5`. That plan lives in the private ops repo, so for every reader of this one the
citation was noise, and a sentence whose subject was the plan step ("round 2 showed…") hid its
lesson behind an id. Each one is gone and the "why" kept: a bare citation is deleted, a sentence
carrying a lesson is reworded around it ("a later attempt showed…").
Measured (`scripts/audit_metrics.py`, product code): 652 lines in 270 files carried an epic code by
the definition the next commit holds (507 / 241 by the old, two-digit-only one) -> 0. Across all
code, tests, scripts and configs: ~1100 epic-code lines plus ~320 sprint/round ids.
Behaviour unchanged, checked mechanically: every changed .py file has the same AST once docstrings
are blanked; css/sh/toml/yml/json files are identical once comments are stripped; the only
non-comment changes in TS/JS are test titles, one description string in a contract table, and five
ESLint messages, whose text is all the gates snapshot diff holds. Not touched: Markdown (docs and
the changelog keep their history), Alembic migrations, TV episode notation (`S2 · E5`), DESIGN.md
ids (`C1`, `B4`, `S3h`), tracker ids (`SEC-16`, `DX-17`).
One stale claim fixed on the way: test_hls_reaper's docstring said the player checkpoints "every
10 s whether or not it is playing", which plex/stream.py calls wrong; it now says what the code does.
- The download and edit failure lines go back after their DB write: a job the
write could not fail is not a failed job, and the worker's child_exit line
already says it failed.
- The download child's runner is the last stop before Python's hook: an
escaping exception is one download.child.failed line with its chain scrubbed,
then exit 1, instead of a raw stderr traceback carrying the URL.
- A crash the database will not record carries its stack once, and the
fail-write line has an event code.
- The job's own generic-extractor name is taken out as a literal (formats.hiding),
so brackets and colons in a direct link's file name no longer leak; the
pattern stays as the fallback. `Downloading just the video <id>` is covered.
- Tests: scrubbed_stack's cause, suppress, unprintable and text-format paths,
the image steps' failure kinds, the watchdog error through the real
_fail_running, exact poster/storyboard messages, ffmpeg skip marker.
- A failure keeps its traceback unless it is yt-dlp's or our own StatedFailure (a
message that is the whole story). A plain RuntimeError, RecursionError or OSError
is also what a bug of ours raises, and its stack is the only lead.
- The stack is scrubbed link by link (logs.scrubbed_stack): a chained DownloadError
under a DB error no longer prints yt-dlp's text unscrubbed.
- Engine hide_parameters: a DB error's message no longer carries the title or path
it was writing.
- The download and edit failure lines go out even when their DB write fails.
- The worker's child_exit/crash/supervisor lines say download.job.failed only when
the job failed there; a crash the DB will not record no longer ends the thread.
Stopping a paused child is download.child.stopped, not a second abort.
- log_safe also covers generic ids with spaces, playlist titles and bare ids.
- The ffmpeg image steps log the failure kind, not the argv with its path.
- The consent contract accepts only the body of a plain consented_trace() check,
and any level that may be TRACE.
- Tests for each; every one mutation-checked.
Deep-review round 1 over main..improvement/watch-background-audio.
BootGate
- The tab's account pin is corrected to the account the server answered as.
The server honours the pin only for an account still signed in to this
browser and otherwise answers as the default, so a tab pinned to an account
signed out in another tab ran as the default on the server while reading
and writing the gone account's local state.
- A mounted tab whose identity changes (its session ended, or the case above)
reloads instead of rebuilding the tree in place, like every account switch;
that also drops the previous account's query cache. The account key on the
tree goes: the readyFor gate already unmounted it on every change.
- An unanswered setup probe shows the error with Retry, like an unanswered
account probe, instead of the signed-out landing to a signed-in user.
- Comments: /api/me never 401s; the ended-session path is identity → nobody.
Loading states
- LoadingState's reveal delay is one clock across loading states that hand
over to each other (boot screen → page-chunk fallback → the page's own
fetching state), instead of a CSS delay restarted by each, which blanked a
visible spinner for another 300 ms at every hand-off. BootScreen is now the
shared loading visual, full screen, counting from navigation start.
Plex shared link
- Persists only the dimensions the link carries again. Writing the default
filters for an omitted `pf` created the stored-filters key, which is what
tells SavedViewsProvider the account picked filters, so the account's
default Plex saved view was never applied again.
Watch page
- The Repeat toggle uses the shared pressed-pill paint (a solid fill when on)
instead of Button variants that differ only in colour, and its flag goes
through storage.ts readJSON/writeJSON.
- The actions wrap under the title when the row is too narrow, instead of
squeezing the title into a column a word wide on a phone; the title breaks
long words.
Comments that still justified code by the removed adopt effects (usePref,
PrefsProvider, FeedViewProvider) are rewritten against the seed-once model.
Tests: BootGate error/retry for both probes, setup mode, a failed background
refetch keeping the app, the pin correction and the reload on an identity
change; the shared reveal clock; the Plex link persist; the audio signature
actually moved off version 4; a video download (av and v) still remuxed to
an mp4. Each mutation-checked RED for its own reason.
Since a Facebook cookie was added on prod, every reel came down titled
"Video": measured on dev, a signed-in read gives yt-dlp the placeholder
"Video" (an 18+ reel read as Chrome gives "Facebook") while the post's text
is still in the description. A new SourceAdapter.title hook takes the whole
first line of the description in that case, and both title writes (the early
fill and the finished download) go through it, so the row, the file name and
the share preview carry the post's text again. The line is not cut with an
ellipsis: normalize_title's NFKC turns "…" into "..." and collapses it to
".", which read as a finished sentence (seen in dev UAT).
The "Audio (MP3)" profile's extracted .mp3 was remuxed into an .mp4 by the
browser-safe step (the audio spec is clamped to container mp4 too) and served
as video/mp4, which iPad's WebKit will not play (prod job 268). Audio mode now
skips that step, so an .mp3 is served as audio/mpeg and an .m4a as audio/mp4.
Audio downloads version their cache identity on their own (v5), so a cached
remuxed audio re-derives without re-downloading every cached video.
A refused Facebook cookie on a group post is no longer "no video in this post":
measured on dev, Facebook answers with its login page (no post id at all), so the
adapter now raises its own POST_NOT_SHOWN verdict and the catalog explains it as
the refused cookie. The adapter owns both post verdicts and the "cannot parse
data" wall wording, so the Chrome retry and the catalog read one constant. The
group-post "no formats" entry is cookie-scoped (with a cookie yt-dlp only gets the
post's video link) and uses the adapter's own group-post test instead of a
"/groups/" substring.
Job transitions that move an asset's ref count (resume, cancel, delete,
redownload) re-read the job under a row lock, asset first, so two overlapping
requests can no longer release the same hold. get_or_create_asset loses an insert
race inside a SAVEPOINT instead of rolling back the caller's pending writes (Retry
lost its cleared error). Every worker-side job failure goes through
finalize_if_running and writes error_detail, so a cancel that landed first is kept
and a failure never shows an earlier one's copy. The worker asks the download
child's own cookie gate (credentials.usable_cookie) when a job inherits a failed
asset.
UI: the Facebook copy no longer points at a Retry button the failure window does
not have, says "paste" like Settings, and the HU wording is fixed
("Újraletöltés" on the re-download confirm). A category this client has no copy
for falls back to the generic sentence instead of a raw key.
Tests: route serialization of error_detail, the probed duration through a real
_download, the page-read cap and a failed read, a Retry off a pending asset, the
confirm-button labels, the lock and savepoint races.
A failed Facebook download read "Download failed": yt-dlp words the login wall
(18+ reel, closed group) as "Cannot parse data", which no category matched.
Measured on dev with the owner's cookie before writing a rule — the same text is
the login wall without a cookie and a refused cookie with one.
- errors.diagnose(msg, url, cookie_attached) tries a host-scoped catalog first
(all-of markers, cookie state, link fragment) and falls back to the category.
First entries: facebook.login_wall, facebook.cookie_rejected,
facebook.group_post_video. The module doc is the recipe for the next entry.
- download_jobs.error_detail (0084) + backfill of the stored Facebook parse
failures that were unknown.
- The pipeline's failure branch passes the link and whether the cookie went
with it; resume and redownload clear code and detail (redownload never
cleared error_code).
- A job meeting an already-failed asset got the text but no code, so it read
"Download failed" where the first job said why. It is diagnosed again, with
the cookie state from credentials.is_authed_asset (now shared with the
cookie gate); the redacted network text classifies back to network.
- FE: failCopyKeys gives the row and the failure window one lookup — catalog
copy, else the category. Copy in EN and HU; a contract test pins every
backend entry to both locales.
