Channel, Subscription, Video, SearchFind, ExploredChannel and BlockedChannel (and LIVE_OR_UPCOMING)
leave app/models.py for app/catalog/models.py; app.tables registers them. The User↔Subscription
relationship names its other side as a type only. No schema change.
Feed, playlists, saved views, tags and the Home pins do no database work in their routes any more:
reads go through reader/queries (and feedquery for a feed page, its counts and facets), writes
through reader/service and discover/pins, which flush; the handlers commit. Reader is fenced below
its HTTP layer too: its owner filters go through userscope, and the catalog's jobs ask Reader
instead of joining its tables (the auto-tagger's system tags, the cleanup jobs' keep rule, the
maintenance notice). A playlist sync's catalog ingest moves to sync/videos.
VideoState, Playlist, PlaylistItem, SavedView, ComfortPin, Tag and ChannelTag leave app/models.py
for app/reader/models.py; app.tables registers them. No schema change.
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 mirror refresh re-ingested inside its row lock, and that ingest's commit let go of the lock
before the replace: a remove made then was undone and the list read as synced. Push, re-pull and a
delete touched items before the list row, a deadlock beside the playlist-first route edits. A push
now re-plans from the items under the lock and derives dirty after its YouTube writes.
lock_playlists moves to the sync package. Tests pin both ids of a move's lock and the claim's
own connection.
- Every playlist item write (add, remove, move, reorder, rename; Plex remove and remove-bulk) row-locks
the playlist before it touches an item, a move both lists in id order: remove beside reorder was a
deadlock, and two adds of one video a unique-key 500.
- The scheduled mirror refresh re-reads dirty under that lock, so an edit made during its YouTube calls
is not replaced by YouTube's order.
- A user's bulk pull holds a per-user advisory claim: two at once created duplicate mirrors. The manual
sync answers 409 sync_all_busy instead of '0 synced', and like the re-pull spends its cooldown only
on a pull that runs.
- Deleted mirrors are committed at once, not only when a later list commits.
- The claims open an unpooled connection of their own instead of a third pooled one per push.
- `overflow-clip` gets a safelist anchor in index.css (its only occurrence is a `.ts` constant),
and the chip-lane contract keeps it there.
- PlexPlayer's Backspace ownership rule is pinned on all three branches: nothing above, a foreign
layer above (it defers), and its own panel open under a layer (it still closes the panel).
- Removing a playlist item bumps the list's `updated_at`, like the three other item-only writes.
- Seen in a real browser on localdev: an exhausted comfort-shelf tile (an empty pinned playlist) is
focusable, aria-disabled, and its Shift+F10 menu offers Play off and Remove from shelf.
move_item checked "already in the target?" and then re-parented without a
lock, so a second tab's add or the scheduler's YouTube merge committing the
same video in between hit uq_playlist_video and answered a raw 500. The
re-parent now runs in a savepoint and a conflict falls back to the
already-present outcome. The target is touched only when the row landed in
it (an untouched list was promoted in the rail's "recently changed" sort),
and _touch stamps the database clock like the mixin's own onupdate.
The canonical-patterns table names owned_or_404 against ad-hoc ownership
helpers; six were left (_own_playlist, _own_playlist_or_404, _own_view,
_own_tag, notifications._owned, downloads._own_job), two of them
hand-rolled with a bare English 404. All call sites now use owned_or_404,
and the download/link/notification 404s are structured like the rest. The
contract test reads every "what is gone" the routes name, and the YouTube
refusal reasons, and requires both languages to name each.
Deep-review round 3 of bug hunt 2026-09.
- get_or_404 / owned_or_404 answer a structured {code: "not_found", reason: <what>}
(errors.notFound.* in HU+EN, generic fallback). The structured-404 fix of round 2 had gone into the
ad-hoc `_own_playlist` (CLAUDE.md's "Not" pattern) while the shared helpers stayed string-only, so
views, tags, pins, Plex playlists, invites and users still 404'd in English. `_own_playlist` now
goes through owned_or_404; admin's hand-rolled user lookups use get_or_404.
- A move into a list that is gone names the TARGET (reason "move_target") — "this playlist doesn't
exist any more" was read as the list on screen, which still exists.
- Every refusal in the playlists router is a {code: "playlist", reason} (playlists.errors.* HU+EN)
instead of a bare English string shown verbatim in the Hungarian UI.
- `req` / `uploadReq` mark the errors they already put on screen (the error dialog, the connection
notice, the 401 sign-out), and notifyActionError skips those. The watched toggles, the saved views
and a playlist delete toasted a fault the dialog was already showing; Playlists' two hand-written
status filters now go through the same check.
- D3 snapshotted the removal's TARGET, but whether the player offered Remove still followed the
selected list: launched from Watch later (no Remove, by design), selecting another list under it
made Remove appear — and delete from Watch later. The snapshot now carries the launch list's
editability too.
- Selecting another list under an open player (the command palette works over it) put the page into
"Loading…", and the player was rendered only in the loaded branch — it vanished mid-playback and
came back at its launch video. It now sits at one place in the tree whatever the page is doing.
- A removal takes the video out of the CACHED list as well as the rows: the player's progress
checkpoint rewrote that entry before the refetch landed, handing the membership guard a list that
still held the video — the row came back and the undo history went.
- The watched-state callback refreshed the selected list, not the launch list (D3's sibling).
- `_own_playlist`'s 404 is structured (`{"code": "playlist", "reason": "not_found"}`) and localised:
the bare "Unknown playlist" reached the Hungarian UI in English, which also made round 1's new
`removeFailed` string unreachable. Both Remove and Move report through `notifyActionError` now.
- The "viewer moved on under the confirm" test stepped back only once, which lands on the same video
whether or not the removed one left the queue; it now takes the second step that tells them apart.
The one-step move S2 needs has no honest client-side shape: "add to the target, then
remove from the source" leaves the video in BOTH lists whenever the second call fails,
and the reverse order loses it entirely. So it is one endpoint in one transaction —
POST /api/playlists/{id}/items/{video_id}/move — which re-parents the existing item row
(so `added_at` survives), recomputes `dirty` on both sides, and is idempotent when the
target already holds the video.
Also publishes `updated_at` on the playlist summary, and bumps it explicitly for the
edits that only write `playlist_items` (add / remove / reorder / move). UpdatedAtMixin's
`onupdate` fires on an UPDATE of the playlist row, so without `_touch` the rail's coming
"recently changed" sort would have seen renames and nothing else.
