Capture's routes (downloads, files, public watch links) and the token list no longer build SQL, call
the session or set a model's fields: reads are downloads/queries, writes the unit's service (service,
folders, links, quota), and each write flushes for the handler to commit. Whose a row is goes
through userscope (owned_by, owned_row), which owned_or_404 now uses too.
The fence holds Capture below its routes as well: it reads only Catalog's and Plex's tables, writes
no other unit's, filters owners through userscope and commits only in its jobs and the upload
ingest. A test per service use case, among them that the tray lists only the caller's files.
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.
- Seven looping pulses (a running job's dot, the scheduler's progress bar, a queued download, the
download tray, a playlist upload, a channel's full-history action, the setup wizard's test mail)
ran regardless of prefers-reduced-motion, which docs/DESIGN.md promises to respect: each is
motion-safe now, held by a contract test.
- The a11y suite's "settled" wait took every aria-hidden pulse for a loading skeleton, so the
Scheduler legend's running dot, which pulses for good, kept it waiting until it timed out. A
skeleton bone now says it is one (data-skeleton) and the wait looks for that.
- The scheduler keeps one registry of the runs this process has open, for the interval jobs and the
ad-hoc runs alike. A row the table still says is `running` but no run here has open (its outcome
failed to write) reads as interrupted, as the next start's sweep will close it: no pulsing dot
beside "No run recorded yet".
- Migration 0109's downgrade sums a still-running run's quota events into its spend before the link
to them is dropped, as the startup sweep would.
- A test holds that a dialog closing onto the same address leaves an open log line open.
- The channel-backfill row says "running" from the runs this process has open, not from the table:
a row whose outcome failed to write no longer reads as running until a restart. The run still
going leads the row, so a newer run's outcome never sits under the older one's channel.
- Migration 0109's downgrade carries every run's trigger, spend and start in the audit row, and the
upgrade restores them: a manual run whose admin was deleted stays manual.
- Back/Forward is read by the page's one popstate listener, both halves in one render; the server
log adopts its half during that render, so no read goes out with one entry's filters and the
other's range.
- The server log's failed facets use the other tabs' words (the menus may be short); the accounts
message shows only when the menu really lacks them.
Backend
- A run's outcome write sits outside the job's own try: a database blip after a run that
succeeded no longer records it as failed (the row waits for the next start's sweep).
- An interrupted run keeps what it spent (the sweep sums its quota rows, as finish does).
- The Scheduler's ad-hoc row says running while any backfill runs, not only the newest.
- recent_runs reads each job's last runs off its index instead of ranking the whole table.
- An interval change is stored with its audit row in one transaction, then rescheduled.
- One API instance per database is the stated contract (.env.example, jobruns).
- Turning full history on for a channel already complete records no run.
- Migration 0109 round-trips interrupted and ad-hoc runs; the run words' DB CHECKs are
test-held to the enums; the account filter is one helper for the four activity reads.
- An audit row says how many of its request's log lines are still kept.
Frontend
- An "All" period reaches every row still kept (runs and admin actions outlive 90 days).
- Back/Forward is followed in place by the server log: a closing dialog no longer turns
Live off; a pivot still opens a fresh log.
- Runs moved over from the audit log read their one-liner in the reader's language.
- Filter choices or accounts that failed to load say so beside the filters, with a retry.
- An old server-log link keeps its account, text and range; a remembered retired page
opens its tab.
- A request whose lines are gone says so instead of linking to an empty list.
- The log lines and the history rows share one row frame, and the server log one list
frame with the other tabs; an empty list is announced; each day's quota is readable.
The run list showed the quota spend as a bare figure and, at the largest text size on a 1024-wide
screen, its fixed columns left the outcome column no width at all. The outcome now keeps 10rem and
the trigger column gives way; the audit list's summary keeps the same floor. A run that stored no
log line says so instead of linking to an empty list. An API token revoke and a token's file work
rendered the server's English line under the Hungarian UI; both are rebuilt in the reader's
language, and the test holds the server's wording.
Seen in the browser, not in the page's own tests: the navigation provider rewrites a retired page id
to `activity` before the page's chunk reads the URL, so `?page=audit` landed on the Runs tab. The
retired-page map now carries the params that open the successor's part (`at`), and the provider
writes them as it rewrites the page — on load and on Back alike.
A list time is relative with the exact second on hover (the DESIGN copy rule); a run moved over from
the audit log, whose start and end are one instant, shows no length instead of an invented "1 sec".
The audit log is called "admin actions" everywhere it is named (the clear button and its confirm, the
Configuration group, the cleanup job, which also prunes the run history its description left out).
The audit log, the server log and the admin quota view were three pages (the quota one a Stats tab),
each with its own filters, and the background runs had no list at all. Now one page ("Napló" /
"Activity") reads all four, each still its own table on the server: a shared bar (text, a period of
1 h to 90 days defaulting to 7, an account) and each tab's own filters, the whole view in the URL.
The old page ids open their tab.
Server side: the audit log and the new run list (`/api/admin/runs`) filter and page like the server
log, through one keyset helper (`routes/_keyset`) the log now shares; an audit row keeps the request
it was made in (migration 0111), so its log lines are a pivot away, as a run's are (`lrun`). The
quota breakdown takes since/until and one account. The Scheduler rows get a history button to their
job's runs.
Also fixed on the way: re-saving the value in force on the Configuration page staged its override
without committing it (the commit sat inside the audit branch), so the save was lost.
An interval override was a row of its own table beside the one store every other admin knob uses; it
is now the `job_interval_<job>` sysconfig key (migration 0110 copies them over and drops the table).
The Scheduler page stays its one editor: the Configuration page and the setup wizard neither list nor
write those keys, since a write there would skip the reschedule.
Each ConfigSpec now states `applies` (required, no default). Every key is `live`, held by a scan that
finds no read at import time; a `restart` key is refused until the page can say so. A second scan
requires a reader for every key on the Configuration page — `sponsorblock_default` had none since it
was added, so it leaves the registry, the translations and the store.
A row's one dot said how the LAST run went, and an interrupted run fell through to "idle" — a grey dot
that read as "no run recorded". The row now leads with its last three runs, newest first, each named
for a screen reader and in its tooltip (how it went, when, who started it); an interrupted run is a
ring, set apart from a skipped run and a failure, and its line says the server restarted under it.
A channel's full-history backfill gets its own "Ad-hoc runs" block: its runs, its channel and what
it fetched, no interval and no run button — it needs its target. AD_HOC_JOBS names every such job;
the backend-id contract holds their names in both languages, and run_ad_hoc refuses any other id.
The one-channel deep backfill ran as a FastAPI BackgroundTask: what it fetched, what it spent and
how it failed reached only the log. It is now a one-shot run on the scheduler (`channel_backfill`,
trigger ad_hoc, actor = the user, target = the channel) with its quota tagged to the run. Its
per-channel exclusion with the scheduled backfill and the two-run cap are unchanged, and a run
they turn away says why in its result instead of returning nothing. A failure is no longer
swallowed: the run records it.
The scheduler snapshot carries each job's last three runs (one windowed query), so the page can
show an interrupted or skipped run instead of the latest outcome alone.
What a job last did lived in the API process's memory and was gone at
every restart; the audit log kept a run only when it was manual, failed
or changed something. Now each run is a job_runs row written at its
start and its end in its own session: who started it, its outcome as
data, what it spent of the YouTube quota (quota_events.job_run_id) and
the lines it logged (log_events.run_id, filterable in the log console).
- a run a stopped process left open is marked interrupted at startup
- "run now" is a one-shot job on the scheduler, which now always starts
(interval jobs only with SCHEDULER_ENABLED); the manual actor is reset
after the run, since pool threads are reused
- the dashboard's last run comes from job_runs, so it survives a deploy
- runs leave the audit log: migration 0109 moves the old job_run rows
over (and back on downgrade); the audit page's run folding goes
- job_run_retention_days (default 30) prunes old runs in audit_gc
Pixel-measured over every scheme x mode x backdrop: the item count fell to 3.8:1 (dark too: its 8%
fill let the toolbar glass and the thumbnails under it through), Channels' tabs to 4.1:1 and the
current Files row to 4.4:1. Light --muted moves 15% toward --fg in every scheme; the badges, the item
count and the current rail row paint opaque bg-tint* fills mixed into the surface. The token contract
now asks 6:1 of --muted on the bare page and checks those three sites use the tints.
Under a busy machine (the gate's lanes side by side, 12 busy cores) these went red at random: a press landed while the button was still busy, an answer was settled before it was asked for, a page grew past one wait's budget, a lazy chunk was transformed inside a 1 s wait, focus was taken a frame after the press. They now wait for the condition they depend on, preload the chunks they open, and the tests that do heavy work (whole-repo scans, the type-aware linter, module resets) carry an explicit budget naming that work. The whole suite four times under 12 busy-loop processes: red 4/4 before, 0/4 after.
--list prints the lane names, --only "<lane>" runs that one lane, so a runner can schedule the lanes itself and a red lane can be re-run on its own. An --only run reports that lane, never the gate, and an unknown name exits 2 instead of passing with nothing run; the contract test holds both.
- The queue holds an upload it sees land done while this tab's upload still waits for its answer, so
the dialog's notice is the only one whichever comes first; another device's upload follows after.
- One `useCopyFeedback` for every Copy beside a value (token, share link, set-password link): Copied
for a moment, a notice a screen reader hears, a warning when the clipboard refuses; the token
dialog's two Copy buttons are named by what they copy.
- The share dialog's link list shows loading, and a load error with Retry, never "no links" — and no
New link beside a list it has not seen.
- The settings texts say that signing out elsewhere or a password change revokes the API tokens.
- DESIGN.md logs the folder-link decisions; the design lab keeps only the chosen renderings of the
Links, Tokens and Files rounds.
- A password reset or change, "log out everywhere" and a revoked untrusted password revoke all of the
account's API tokens too (audited): one minted from a stolen session no longer outlives the answer.
- A bearer token or link grant with a non-ASCII character is refused (401/403), not a 500.
- Making a token's grants or a folder link holds the folder, so a racing delete cannot fail the
foreign key; a link's view count is one atomic UPDATE.
- A folder link's card counts exactly the files its page lists (one `links.folder_files`).
- A file with no extension is served without a trailing dot.
- 0106's downgrade names a Hub folder so it never collides with one of the user's folders.
- The speed baseline reads share tokens through the app (the database keeps them hashed/encrypted).
- Tests: the token scope on the real session stack, the folder poster, the Hub refused for a link,
0106's downgrade data step, 0107 without a key; docs/comments follow (three folder kinds, folder
links, key change, the cleanup job's token warnings).
A /watch link may now open one of its owner's own folders (migration 0108: folder_id beside job_id,
exactly one set; a folder's links go with it). The page shows what is in the folder when it is
opened, newest first: a video or a song plays in the same player a file link has, above the list,
each keeping its own resume point; a document only downloads, never opens as a page. A file moved
out stops opening through the link at its next request. Password, expiry and stream-only work as on
a file link; the unfurl names the folder and counts its files, never their names. Source folders
and the Hub cannot be shared.
The folder menu gets "Copy link" and "Share with a link…" (the Share dialog's link half); the rail
marks a folder a live link opens.
Two fixes in the Share dialog on the way: revoking the last link no longer mints a new one at once,
and the new-link form goes back to downloadable after making a link.
A /watch link's token is the credential, and it sat in the database as written. Migration 0107
replaces the column with the token's SHA-256 (the lookup) and a Fernet-encrypted copy (so the owner
can copy the same link again); every existing address keeps working, and the downgrade decrypts
them back. Without a copy this key can read, a link still opens but its address cannot be shown:
"Copy link" then takes the newest link that has one or makes a new one, and the Share dialog says
so in that row instead of a broken URL. Making, changing and revoking a link are audited, never
with its token or password.
An upload that came back done was announced twice: by the upload dialog ("File uploaded") and
again by the tray, which saw a job turn done ("Downloaded: …"). The dialog now marks its job as
announced, so the queue keeps it for the tray but does not say it again. An upload the worker
converted first is still the tray's to announce, now as "Uploaded: …".
A finished job's notice offered "Open" while Files still listed the folder without it (its own
poll runs every 15 s): the tray now refreshes the library the moment it sees a finish.
Settings gains an API tokens tab: a row per token (name and prefix; each
folder with its rights; last use and expiry, "expires soon" marked),
revoked from its menu behind a confirm. A new token is the Hub exchange in
one click, or folders and rights picked per folder (no Write where an
upload cannot land); expiry 30/90 days, 1 year or never (warned). The
token shows once in the same dialog, with Copy and a ready curl line.
The Hub folder closes the Sources in the Files rail, takes uploads and
moved-in files. A token about to run out warns its user once, a week
before (the Files GC's sixth pass); the notice opens the tokens tab.
A bare <img> sent a Referer that Google's image CDNs refuse and had no retry and no fallback, so a
Home shelf card showed the browser's broken-image mark. ui/RemoteImage gathers what Avatar, the
channel banner and the download rows had each hand-rolled: no Referer, up to three retries past the
browser's negative cache, the caller's fallback (by default the card's empty frame) instead of the
broken mark, the failure remembered by URL. Every picture now goes through it; a lint rule refuses
a bare <img>.
The Plex player's ⋯ → Settings closed the menu (its entry went back) and opened the panel a task
later, before that back() had landed. The panel's push was the entry the landing back() took, so
the books counted one entry more than the history held, and closing the panel by a click outside
it stepped back over the player's own entry: the player closed.
A push now waits while a back() of ours is in flight; the popstate that lands the last one
reconciles again.
A user can make a token for a machine of theirs (`/api/tokens`, signed-in only): `sfl_` + 32
random bytes + a checksum, only its SHA-256 kept, shown once. Sent as a Bearer header it is
honoured on six `/api/files` routes only — folders, list, file, hash, upload, delete — and there
only in the folders its grants name, with the rights they give (list / read / write / delete).
One check, `FilesCaller.may`, in every route; a folder or file out of reach answers like a
missing one; the files shared with the user are never in reach. A token beats a cookie on the
same request.
The Hub preset makes the user's one Hub folder (a new folder kind) and grants it every right.
Refused tokens are slowed down per client, a runaway machine per token; last use is stamped at
most once a minute; making and revoking a token is audited, and a token's uploads and deletes
name it in their audit rows.
- past the list's cap a search waits in a skeleton, never showing the newest files' 'no match' for a
file the server is about to find; a sort keeps its stand-in rows
- the viewer keeps the file it was opened on when a server answer replaces the rows under it
- a drop another zone took still clears the page's drop overlay
- 'The first N items' only for a server sort; the past-the-end notice no longer claims the file exists
- a failed server search is tested to say so
- Escape closes the file viewer again: its layer sits above its dialog's, so it takes the Escape.
- The page's drop guard leaves a drag the open Upload dialog's zone accepted alone (it ran last and
refused that drop).
- A capped list's server sort or search keeps the rows on screen until its answer is in (no skeleton
under the pressed header), says "The first N items" when that answer is cut too, and an arrival is
decided on the rows shown: one past the end of a cut list is said to be so, not gone.
- The search an arrival clears is taken at once.
- Tests: confirm names asserted per confirm, a fitting text pages under the arrows, a deleted file
leaves the tray's finished list.
- GC: the expiry warning marks each file conditionally on the expiry it saw, one commit each (a file
deleted meanwhile no longer fails the run; one re-timed keeps its fresh expiry unwarned); eviction
counts the disk again when a candidate was freed meanwhile, so it never evicts for space already free.
- Folders: a retention change locks the folder and its files, and a finishing file reads the retention
under a share lock, so neither misses the other; a folder delete locks the files it takes home (a
file moved out meanwhile stays put, one deleted meanwhile no longer fails the delete).
- Upload: the folder is checked before the probe and held only once the job names it.
- Dedup enqueue locks the cached asset, so a release meanwhile yields a fresh one instead of a 500.
- Mount check reads the kernel's mount table instead of comparing devices (the vfs storage driver gave
a mounted volume the device of /), and only inside a container; the API also logs a fresh, empty
volume in the library's place.
- Compose files fall back to DOWNLOAD_HOST_PATH; the upgrade notes cover the from-source pull.
- Folder routes call owned_or_404 directly.
