Learn, per user tag, which auto TOPIC tags are characteristic of the channels
you've tagged it, then suggest that tag for still-untagged subscribed channels
whose topics cover enough of the profile. Language auto-tags are excluded from
the signal — near-universal within a language, they flooded every channel.
New GET /api/tags/suggestions (read-only, deterministic) backed by
app/sync/tagsuggest.py. Surfaced in the Channel Manager as dashed "ghost" chips
in the tags cell — one tap accepts (reuses the attach-tag endpoint), × dismisses
for the session — plus a header badge and a bulk "Accept N confident" (the
full-profile matches) behind a confirm. No silent writes (D4 = suggest-and-confirm).
Also reflow a pre-existing prettier drift in dateFilter.ts from E8·S2.
Add a Year filter to the feed rail: quick chips for recent years plus a
'More…' popover listing all years with per-year video counts, sortable by
year or count. Selecting a year narrows the feed to that whole calendar
year (a published_after/before range applied in the api layer) and is
mutually exclusive with the Upload-date control.
Backend: new /api/feed/years endpoint + feed_years() — one grouped query
that honours every filter EXCEPT the publish-date narrowing (dropped), so
the year list stays a live drill-down and switching years never zeroes the
others. FE keys the list on the date-stripped filters, so picking a year
re-queries the feed but not the list.
Wires year through FeedFilters, the filterParams/URL (?year) round-trip,
the active-filter chip row, and the panel layout. i18n HU+EN.
Tests: feed_years count query (date narrowing ignored, other filters
honoured); dateFilter year-clearing; urlState year round-trip.
Self-review of the branch diff (feature/plex-filter-bar-overhaul) against main:
- Surprise rail query key omitted `lang` while the backend /surprise now filters
against the language-specific genre column → a HU/EN switch under an active genre
filter left the rail stale. Key it by scope+lang+filters, matching plexDiscover.
- Chip-removing a collection left its entry in `collectionTitles` (hashed into the
plex query keys), splitting the cache from the pristine no-collection state and
growing the titles map unboundedly. Prune the title on remove, like CollectionPicker.
- The saved-views default-mirror effect gained `cfg` in its deps (re-memoized on every
live filter edit) → a synchronous localStorage write per keystroke. Depend on the
module-stable mirror fn instead.
- Collections-browse search input had no accessible name (placeholder only). Add
aria-label + type="search".
- Extract the tile hue-hash + gradient duplicated between PlexDiscover and
plexBrowseLists into a shared lib/hueTile so the two surfaces can't drift.
- Document migration 0073 downgrade() as lossy and de-dup non-feed rows before
recreating the narrow (user_id, name) constraint (verified by the drift test).
- Add unit tests for coercePlexFilters (legacy single-collection migration) and
plexFiltersSignature (order-independence, title-ignoring).
Gate: tsc/lint/knip/prettier clean, 410 vitest; backend ruff + migration drift +
saved-views tests green.
Plex now has the same personal-views system as the feed — the rail header icon
opens the quick-pick popover, the rail title opens the manager modal (list /
create / rename / delete / reorder / set-default / apply), and the active view
leads the chip row with a "modified" dot.
One SavedViewsProvider serves both modules: it switches `source` (feed ⟷ plex)
by the active page (both filter providers are global, so it reads whichever the
page owns) and runs the same logic on per-source wiring — the live filters,
apply, a stable signature (feed filtersToParams / plex plexFiltersSignature),
coercion (asFilters / coercePlexFilters), and what to strip on save. Moved below
PlexProvider in the tree so it can read plex state; resets sticky/modal on a
source switch. The shared popover/modal/chip are unchanged; the modal describes
a plex view's captured filters via a pure buildPlexActiveFilters (extracted from
usePlexActiveFilters — no duplication). api.savedViews/createView take a source;
`SavedView.filters` is now an opaque blob. New coercePlexFilters/plexFilters-
Signature (also dedups PlexProvider's collection migration). Empty-state copy
genericised (no longer says "feed"). A Plex view captures the rail filters (not
watch-state/sort/scope).
Verified end-to-end on localdev: create/apply/preview/default/delete on plex,
feed views stay separate + unregressed (402 vitest), no console errors.
Discover now behaves like the Browse grid — the active metadata filters (genre /
rating / year / collection / studio / …) narrow every rail: Continue watching,
Recently added, Surprise me, the genre tiles, and Because you watched. Same
LibraryFilters / meta_filter_conds the grid uses, applied to each rail's movie +
show query (movie duration included); a rail may come back empty, which the client
already hides. Genre-language matches the grid.
Because Discover honours filters itself, adding a filter no longer force-flips the
Discover landing to the grid (only a header SEARCH does, since Discover has no
search rail) — so you stay on Discover with narrowed rails.
Frontend threads `filters` into api.plexDiscover/plexSurprise + their query keys
(plexSurprise is variadic now) and the watched-toggle setQueryData; PlexDiscover
reads them from usePlex. Tests: two discover filter-narrowing cases; PlexDiscover
dom test updated for the provider default + 3-arg call.
A dedicated Plex "Discover" landing — a stack of horizontal Carousel rails
served from ONE consolidated read (serve-from-DB, no live Plex/TMDB call):
- GET /api/plex/discover → continue_watching (in-progress movies + shows, most
recently progressed) · recently_added · genres (top-N tiles) ·
because_you_watched (recs of the most-recent watched, TMDB-enriched movie,
resolved to library rows by guid via serve_block's resolver).
- GET /api/plex/surprise → a fresh random, scope-bounded sample for the ↻ rail.
Frontend: PlexDiscover.tsx (rails reuse the S1 Carousel + S3 PlexPosterCard;
colored genre tiles → tap to filter the grid; ↻ reshuffles the surprise rail
alone). Discover is now the root sub-view; the flat grid becomes the bookmarkable
"Browse all" secondary view (?v=browse) reached by a header search/filter (a
browse-intent flip) or the new Discover⟷Browse toggle.
resolve_recs is promoted from _resolve_recs (now cross-module). Tests:
test_plex_discover.py (rail shape/order, continue-watching, because-you-watched
+ null, surprise bounds, scope) and PlexDiscover.dom.test.tsx; plexSubUrl
round-trip updated for discover-root/grid-browse. Backend lane 393, vitest 332.
The FE fired /feed/count (1 pass) + /facets (3 passes) on every filter change =
4 full scans of the subscribed set. New /api/feed/summary does ONE grouped query
(the base filter with tags stripped, GROUP BY channel_id -> per-channel video
counts) and derives the total count + every tag's distinct-channel facet count in
Python on the ~few-hundred-row channel map, faithfully mirroring filtered_query's
channel-based tag logic + the /facets drill-down (own category dropped, unless a
conjunctive topic-AND). Returns {count, facets} — the same numbers the two old
endpoints returned.
FE: a single shared query (Feed reads .count, Sidebar reads .facets); same key +
filters, so React Query dedupes to ONE request. Invalidations repointed to
qk.feedSummary. The old /feed/count + /facets endpoints (and their now-unused FE
api/qk) are kept as the equivalence-test oracle + safety net; a later cleanup can
drop them.
New equivalence test (test_feed_views, 8 filter combos incl. cross-category,
disjunctive/conjunctive topic modes, search): /feed/summary count == /feed/count
and facets == /facets, byte-identical. Structural win: 2 requests / 4-6 queries
-> 1 request / 2-3 queries (the review measured 530 -> 144 ms). Gate green:
344 pytest, frontend tsc/eslint/knip/prettier/222 vitest.
E5 S6 frontend half.
Language threading (?lang=hu serves the HU overlay; en is the default):
- api/plex.ts: `lang` on plexLibrary / plexFacets / plexItem / plexShow (only
sent for hu, so EN URLs stay byte-stable); PlexItemDetail gains `rating`.
- queryKeys: plexItem / plexShow take an optional trailing lang so a switch caches
HU/EN separately; the ...rest keys (library/facets) already carry it. Prefix
invalidations (qk.plexShow(id) / qk.plexItem(id)) still match either.
- i18n: plexLang() collapses the UI language to en|hu for non-component code.
- PlexBrowse / PlexSidebar: thread lang into the grid, facets, item and show
queries (useTranslation re-renders on switch → the key changes → refetch).
- plexPlayerHooks: the optimistic resume setQueryData now keys by plexLang() so
it still lands on the language-keyed detail query.
- Clear the genre-filter selection on a language switch — genre chips are
language-specific strings, so a stale one silently empties the grid.
IMDb-only rating badge (folded-in S5b review #5):
- PlexInfo.tsx shows the IMDb badge + imdb.com link only when imdb_rating is
present; otherwise it renders the Plex audience `rating` (no IMDb link/branding),
so a non-IMDb score is never mislabelled. ratingMin filter keys off whichever
score is shown.
Tests: i18n parity.test.ts (en/hu key sets identical per namespace — currently
green, no drift). FE gate green: tsc / knip / lint clean, 213 vitest tests pass.
Backend: new GET /api/plex/person/{name} returns a cast/crew member's cached headshot plus
the movies (PlexItem, kind=movie) and shows (PlexShow) in the enabled libraries whose
cast_names OR directors include the name — the inverse of the cast → filter link. Introduce a
shared _content_libs(db) helper (enabled-library partition) and reuse it in people_cards;
S5 will extend it with the HU-overlay exclusion. Watch-state comes from PlexState / rollup
(reusing _movie_card / _show_card / state_map). DB-lane tests cover cast+director credits,
library scoping, the kind filter, unknown-name empties, and the partition helper.
Frontend: a new `person` history-subview. A cast-row click (PlexInfo cast row + the show
page's CastStrip) now opens the person's filmography page instead of filtering; the filter
gesture moves to a "Filter library by {name}" button on the page itself. PlexPersonView
mirrors PlexInfoView's fetch-wrapper + glass hero (headshot + name + credit counts) and
renders Movies / Shows as PlexPosterCard grids, with an optimistic per-card watch toggle on
the person cache. New plexPerson query key + api client + PlexPersonDetail type; HU/EN copy.
Add a search scope-pill to the Plex header search box (GitHub-style, one
field-scope at a time) and an instant typeahead of the top matches below it.
Backend (unified_library):
- New `field` param: all | title | people | summary | episode. `all` is
byte-identical to the pre-scope behaviour (untouched weighted search_vector);
a specific field keeps the GIN `search_vector @@ tsq` prefilter AND ANDs a
per-column tsvector recheck, so scoped hits are a strict subset of Everywhere.
Per-field expressions mirror the search_vector Computed def (same TS config,
same left(summary,1000) truncation).
- `episode` scope empties the movie/show grid and title-only-matches the grouped
Episodes section; the title/people/summary scopes suppress that section.
- Unknown field falls back to `all`. New DB-lane characterization tests
(test_plex_field_scoped_search.py): each scope narrows correctly, field=all is
identical to today, episode empties the grid and needs shows in scope.
Frontend:
- PlexSearchBox wraps the shared SearchBar with the scope-pill (reusing
ActionMenu) and the typeahead; SearchBar gains generic leading/below/focus/
keydown slots so other modules' search boxes are untouched.
- Episode scope offered only when shows are in scope (movie-only hides it),
healed at the point of use like the sort state.
- Typeahead reuses /api/plex/library (limit=10), honours scope+field (not the
sidebar filters), shows poster+title+year, keyboard nav (arrows/Enter/Esc),
and jumps straight to a movie's info page or a show's drill-down via a new
provider jumpTo hand-off (mirrors the playlistOpen pattern).
- `field` persisted per-account; en/hu labels added.
Code-review follow-ups on the S2 factory:
- add queryKeys.test.ts pinning every branch (bare vs param, null-segment
preservation, single-id, variadic composite spreads) — the contract the
epic exists to protect now has a test (suite 68 -> 73)
- unify feed/feedCount/facets on the `!== undefined` guard the rest of the
factory already uses (behaviour-identical for the always-truthy FeedFilters,
removes the collapse-on-null footgun)
Two findings skipped with rationale: variadic composite-key typing (heterogeneous
object/array segments make precise tuples high-effort; root centralized + shapes
now tested) and a pre-existing thread(null) no-op (unreachable in practice).
Extend lib/queryKeys.ts to the remaining ~34 key roots and migrate every
remaining literal (queryKey: [...] AND the positional useLiveQuery keys) in
36 files. All ~200 React Query keys across the app now route through the
factory; zero raw key literals remain outside queryKeys.ts.
The heterogeneous composite plex keys (plex-library/facets/collections/
playlists carry a filters object, a ratingKeys array, or a union/group
discriminator) take a variadic pass-through — the factory centralizes the
ROOT string; single-id keys stay precisely typed. Nullable keys (thread,
playlist, ytSearch) accept null so a null segment is preserved.
Pure substitution — byte-identical key arrays, so TanStack prefix matching
is unchanged. Gate green: typecheck (app+node+e2e), eslint (0 err),
prettier, 68 vitest. Runtime-verified on a fresh dev server: Feed + Plex
modules load, feed/facets/tags/my-status/plex-library/plex-facets/
plex-collections/plex-playlists all 200, full UI renders.
Introduce lib/queryKeys.ts as the single source of truth for React Query
keys — the R7 driver was ~200 hand-written key literals across 51 files
(`["feed"]` alone in 15+), where one typo silently orphans a key so an
invalidate never matches.
S2a migrates the three highest-traffic domains (feed/video, channels,
playlists) plus the shared me/my-status/tags roots: ~90 literal sites in
18 files now call qk.*(). Pure substitution — each factory fn returns the
byte-identical array the call sites used before, so TanStack's prefix
matching is unchanged (qk.feed() still invalidates qk.feed(filters)).
Co-invalidation clusters are deliberately NOT bundled into helpers (they
differ per site), so no query's refetch scope changes.
Nullable keys (playlist(selectedId), ytSearch(q)) accept null so a null
segment is preserved (["playlist", null]) while a no-arg call is the bare
prefix key — guard is `!== undefined`.
Gate green: typecheck, eslint (0 err), prettier, 68 vitest. Smoke: app
boots, feed/facets/tags/my-status all 200, no console errors. Factory
extended to plex/messaging/admin/downloads/notifications in S2b.
