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.
- Nav rail page rows are real links (/?page=<id>): a middle-click or
Ctrl-click opens the page in a new tab; a plain click stays in-app.
- A fresh channel page shows the unwatched videos; a picked watch state
is a remembered preference (channelShow).
- Users: the role, suspend and delete move into the row's one menu
(the "…", right-click, Shift+F10); locked ones keep their reason.
- Audit log: back-to-back successful runs of one job fold into one row
that opens to the earlier ones; a failed run reads in the danger colour.
- DESIGN.md decision log: the E31 picks.
The audit log showed the server's fixed English lines ("rss_poll: ok — new=5, failed=0",
"log_level = DEBUG", "Background sync paused") to a Hungarian reader. The details are rebuilt from the
row's data on the client: a job run names the job and its result as the inbox does, a config change
names the field and its values (on/off, grouped counts, "default"), a pause/resume adds nothing the
action does not say. A failed run keeps its error text (diagnostic). parseSummary reads enrich's bare
count ("50") back as `enriched`, as the server's `_result_data` names it — the audit and old notices
keep only the one-liner. No backend change; old rows render too.
Every locale formatter takes the language as an argument. Under the React
Compiler a formatter that read the i18n singleton was memoized on its other
arguments, so a card kept "2 hr 4 min" after a switch to Hungarian; plexLang()
had the same flaw and left Plex queries in the old language. Components now
take the language from useTranslation, and the signature makes forgetting it
a type error.
- ratings, file sizes, stream stats: the language's decimal mark ("8,3")
- view and subscriber counts compact in the language ("1,2 E")
- seconds as the language's unit ("6 mp") in the sliders and the stats
- a person's birth and death dates as dates, not ISO strings
- A-Z lists by the shown name in the language's alphabet (compareText),
the tag catalog re-sorted by its translated names
- lint local/locale-format (was date-format) also refuses Intl.NumberFormat
outside lib/format.ts, localeCompare, and a component reading the language
off the i18n singleton
- PageShell names the page with a visually hidden h1; a view with its own title renders it as
PageHeading and the hidden one steps aside (contract: no hand <h1> inside the shell).
- Section captions are SectionLabel headings (h2, h3 in a dialog), ui/form Section included.
- "Skip to content" is the first Tab stop and focuses the scroller's <main>.
- Below 600px of height the band's filter row folds into "Filters · n" (Feed, Plex, server log),
the same row shown in place.
- The band holds controls only: Downloads and Notifications lose their title cards, the Config and
channel-discovery intros scroll with the content, the Stats tabs and the audit pager join the band,
and the server log's toolbar sticks with the fade under it.
The 43 react-refresh/only-export-components warnings the gate let through meant an edit to a
provider (or AnchoredPopover, Toaster, plexDetailUi, …) could not be hot-swapped: Fast Refresh
reloads a module that also exports hooks or helpers.
- Each provider's contexts, the types its hooks return and the hooks themselves live in a sibling
context module (navigationContext.ts, channelsContext.ts, …); the provider file keeps the
component. loadAccountFilters moved next to the feed filters' defaults (feedFiltersInit.ts),
following navigationInit/playlistsInit.
- Helpers that sat in component files have their own modules: welcomeMode, downloadTitle,
plexPlayable, channelSync, ui/anchoredPopoverHooks, ui/pageToolbarSlot, ui/pagerContent,
ui/toastLevels, ui/overlayOrder, ui/tableAlign, lib/plexDetail; the cells of the channel columns
and the registry's page wrappers are components files of their own (channelCells, modulePages).
- usePersistedTab, an alias of useAccountPersistedState, is gone; its callers use the original.
npm run lint is now eslint --max-warnings 0, so a warning fails the gate like an error does.
Deep-review round 4, the "one report per failure" contract round 3 introduced.
- `req` marked gateway (502/503/504) and network failures "already reported" because they raise
the connection notice. But that notice is about connectivity and removes itself on the very next
answer — which every caller's own resync refetch fetches at once — so a delete that hit a
keepalive reset flashed the notice and was then reported nowhere, the list still there. Only the
durable reports (the error dialog, the 401 sign-out) count now; the caller says the action failed.
- A connection notice the user closed swallowed every later one for the rest of the visit; it is
raised again.
- `req` and `uploadReq` share one failure policy (`reportFailure`). The upload copy had drifted: a
502 opened the blocking "Server error (502)" dialog and cleared a notice that was still true.
- A taken Plex collection name is a structured 409, localized, and the create/rename calls are
quiet: it was an English dialog plus a Hungarian toast. `notifyCollectionEditError` is gone.
- The mutation onErrors that toasted unconditionally after a non-quiet request (invite approve /
deny / add, demo whitelist, audit clear, scheduler, share, full history, edit, config tests, tag
attach) go through `notifyActionError`; the playlist delete's hand-rolled copy of it too (it takes
a level now). The user role / suspend / delete actions had no onError at all: a user deleted in
another tab failed silently and stayed listed — now said, and the list refetched.
Counting the un-migrated call sites showed the primitive and the app had
drifted into two different looks: the majority of hand-rolled buttons
hover to accent (outline) and fill with card (ghost), while Button
hovered to fg and filled with surface. That split is the inconsistency
this epic exists to remove, so the primitive follows the majority rather
than the other way round -- 16 existing call sites shift slightly, ~90
hand-rolled ones stop being special.
Adds the variants the call sites prove are missing (outline-accent,
outline-danger, outline-warn, link), an icon-sm size for the p-1.5 icon
family, and a size=none so a link owns no button padding; renames
danger-outline to danger-soft so it cannot be confused with
outline-danger (red at rest vs red on hover). Two new tests lock the
link-size default and the rule that a variant never adds a second
font-weight utility -- without tailwind-merge, two font-* utilities are
decided by stylesheet order, not class order, so that is a real hazard.
Migrates AdminUsers, AuditLog, Channels, TagManager, Playlists,
PlaylistsRail and SettingsPanel (Button call sites 37 -> 52). Left alone
deliberately: conditional-paint sites, video-overlay white buttons, drag
handles, chip removers and card-click targets -- the families Button's
own docstring excludes.
3x tsc, eslint, knip, prettier and 689 vitest green; visual UAT on Users,
Access requests and Playlists at 1280x900, no console errors.
The app HAS a platform layer -- AnchoredPopover (22 importers, with
arrows/typeahead/Escape/anchor-flip), QueryState (21), Modal (17),
PageShell, DataTable, Tabs, Tooltip and ~26 more -- but it sat flat among
~160 feature components with nothing marking it as one. Several of those
files describe themselves as 'the one place' or 'canonical' and were
still bypassed by hand-rolled markup, because a layer nobody can see is a
layer nobody uses; three separate inventory passes of this codebase
misread it the same way.
Moves the 33 domain-free modules into components/ui/, rewrites the
imports in 89 files, and makes the boundary a lint rule rather than a
convention: inside ui/ a one-level-up import (a feature component) and
any lib/api slice are errors. The rule was verified to fire on both and
to leave generic lib/ helpers alone. README.md states which side of the
line a component belongs on and why.
No behaviour change: 3x tsc, eslint, knip, prettier and 687 vitest tests
all green; no backend file touched.
The ~124 px-frozen text-[Npx] labels didn't track the Settings font-scale slider
while their rem-sized neighbours did. Add text-2xs (0.6875rem) / text-3xs
(0.625rem) font-size-ONLY tokens (no paired line-height -> matches the arbitrary
they replace, zero vertical-rhythm shift) and codemod every text-[Npx] to a rem
class (rare 8/9/12/13px -> rem arbitraries).
Also: --hdr-h 68px -> 4.25rem so header content clears the rem-sized pills at
scale 1.3 instead of sliding under; NavSidebar/SidePanel slot widths + their
icon/badge px sizes go rem so the rails keep pace with their (now-scaling)
labels; a w-24/h-[54px] thumb -> h-13.5 to preserve 16:9 at scale. Media
thumbnails, page-width caps and fixed container widths deliberately stay px.
Verified via getComputedStyle at scale 1.06/1.3: text-2xs 11.66->14.3px, header
clearance 72->88px, nav slot 246->302px — all scale proportionally.
Add theme-scoped --danger/--warn/--success (+ -fg) tokens wired into the v4
@theme inline, replacing ~110 raw red/amber/emerald/green palette refs across
34 files. Fixes light-theme contrast failures (fixed Tailwind shades fell to
~1.7-3:1 on white). Status colors are scheme-independent — recognised by hue,
shifting only by theme to hold contrast (bright on dark bg, darkened on light).
Solid fills use the paired -fg text; @source inline guarantees the full -fg set
exists. IMDb rating gold kept as a deliberate decorative non-status exception.
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.
Replaces the plain "Loading…" text in every R3 loading branch with a single shared LoadingState
(a spinning lucide Loader2 in the accent colour + label, centered, role=status/aria-live) — one
component so all loads read the same and can be swapped for skeletons later in one place. Applied
across Feed, Channels, ChannelDiscovery, AuditLog, NotificationsPanel, Messages, Scheduler, Stats,
PlexBrowse (grid + subviews), PlexPlaylistView, ConfigPanel, DownloadCenter, AdminUsers, ChatThread.
Left the small "load more" footer and lazy Suspense fallbacks as-is.
- The honest-state branch now guards on `isError && !data`, so a background/window-focus refetch
failure keeps already-visible content instead of replacing the list with a full error screen
(regression the bare `isError` introduced). Applied to AuditLog, Channels, ChannelDiscovery,
PlexBrowse, PlexPlaylistView, Messages(people), Feed — matching the guard already used in
Messages(conversations)/NotificationsPanel/Scheduler.
- Drop the unused DataTable loading/error/onRetry props (every table page uses the outer
StateMessage branch, not the props) — reverts DataTable to its simple empty block.
- StateMessage announces errors with role=alert/aria-live=assertive (was polite for all tones).
- Remove the now-unused common.empty string (en+hu), left over from the removed QueryState render-prop.
The error state didn't exist as a concept: a failed main query rendered as an "empty" list
("No channels" while the request actually died), so a backend restart read as "everything is
empty". Add the convention that an empty state may NEVER show while a query is erroring.
- New components/QueryState.tsx: shared StateMessage (loading / error+Retry, house style, with
role=status/aria-live — the app had zero live regions).
- DataTable gains loading/error/onRetry props (suppresses empty-text on error).
- isError branch (before the empty branch) added across the false-empty pages: Feed (retry),
Channels, ChannelDiscovery, AuditLog, NotificationsPanel, Messages (conversations + people),
Scheduler, Stats, PlexBrowse grid, PlexPlaylistView. ChannelPage's main content is Feed, now
covered. common.loadError/empty strings (en+hu).
