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.
E32 S3. The compiler skipped 93 functions; it now skips 29 (try/finally shapes, two suppressions,
VirtualGrid). react-hooks/refs hits 245 -> 31.
- Popover engine: `ref={pop.refs.setReference}` made the compiler treat the whole popover handle as
a ref, so every component holding one was skipped (21 call sites, the engine and its surface
among them). The setter is destructured now; the same for useScrollFade and useReturnFocus.
- Render-phase `ref.current = x` writes moved to `useEffectEvent` where only effects read them,
else to the new `useLatest` (written in a layout effect) / `useStableCallback`.
- FocusSafeButton (under every Button) read the focused element during render; it reads it through
useSyncExternalStore, which React asks on every render instead of a cached memo.
Bugs this surfaced, fixed:
- Combobox: a chip could keep showing its raw id. The label cache was a ref an effect filled after
the render that needed it; it is state merged during render now (test seen RED).
- useUndoable rendered from a ref plus a forced re-render; compiled, that memoizes a stale value.
The history is state now, mirrored in a ref for the stable callbacks.
- ConfigPanel and the saved-views editor re-seeded their drafts in an effect, painting the stale
draft for a frame; both adjust during render against the remembered key.
- Toaster's handover is written after commit instead of during render; a new test pins that the
inherited set is taken once, at the takeover (seen RED on a per-render re-read).
- IssueComposer mutated a ref prop as a one-shot focus token; it is plain state.
- PlexBrowse wrote its info-scroll memory from an effect declared before the ref, past its own
"one writer" rule; the writer comes first now and the effect goes through it.
The compiler ratchet drops to the measured 29 and now also requires FocusSafeButton and the popover
engine to compile.
Found in the Hungarian UAT: a toolbar SelectTrigger's text value wrapped out of the pill in a narrow
place (the playlists rail) — it now truncates in its own span; the Channels "Prioritás" and "Utolsó
feltöltés" headers were clipped by their fixed columns — sized for the label, funnel and sort arrow;
a sortable header is at least 24px wide (Hungarian "Ki" was a 12px target). PRE-EXISTING, any
language: the messages unlock button and "Forgot passphrase" sat flush — one gapped row.
- The saved views, the view switcher, the year filter and the table's single-choice filter mark the
chosen row with MenuCheck, as DESIGN asks, not a trailing tick, a dot or a filled row; a contract
test holds every checkable menu row to it. keepSelectedPaint had no caller left and is gone.
- A combobox's panel carries its listbox role on an inner PopoverList (listInside), so the failed
load, Loading, No matches and the 'n more' line sit beside the options, not inside the listbox. The
Plex search box's Loading line likewise.
- The Plex sidebar's playlist picker offers Create only once the lists have loaded: over a failed load
it pushed the error and its Retry out at the first keystroke.
The pager is four named arrows round the page box (first, previous,
next, last). A table hides a tabletHidden column below 64rem of its own
width, as narrowHidden does below 42rem, through one shared helper that
also hides the column's <col>. The Channels table drops Prio, About and
Length there: at 1024 the channel name had 60 px.
Beside the playlist rail an 800 px window left the table 432 px: the fixed
columns took all of it and the title column was 0 px wide, its thumbnail
drawn over the channel. The table is an @container now and the columns hide
under 42rem of its own width (narrowHidden, was phoneHidden).
ui/MenuCheck: a box filled with the accent for a set (a minus for a group
only partly in), a bare tick for one choice, in the row's leading slot.
Replaces seven hand-drawn marks: three box sizes, a tinted box, a cross
for "on" in the table filter, a trailing tick in the language menu.
- Playlist rows: the X column became the row's "…" (play, pin, copy title/link, move, order,
remove). Remove runs at once, with no confirm; its toast's Undo puts the row back at its index.
The Delete key removes a keyboard-walked row, and focus moves on to the next.
- POST /api/playlists/{id}/items takes an optional `position`, so an undo is one request that
renumbers the list around the row.
- A new `listDelete` key scope. Only a list with `onDelete` registers it, so the help sheet does not
offer Delete where nothing handles it.
- A playlist has one list, `usePlaylistActions.items`: rename, pin, YouTube open/push/revert,
delete. The rail row's "…" and the page header's "…" both open it. Push and revert moved into
the hook; the header keeps Play all.
- Phone-width playlist table: "#" and Channel are hidden below sm (`Column.phoneHidden`). Their
fixed widths had left the title no width.
The table header carried an arbitrary-value copy of fade-below; a contract refuses a hand gradient of a surface colour. 100vh is the viewport with a tablet browser's toolbar retracted, so h-screen / min-h-screen / static vh hid the last rows under it; a contract holds dvh (the Plex player stage changes with S3f, where it is played on the tablet).
- F12 (owner: A): SwitchRow, the whole settings row toggles; a Config boolean toggles from its title
and hint (a label pointed at the switch).
- F14 (owner: B): the form dropdown trigger wears the field frame (see-through, the >= 3:1 edge);
labelled pills keep the faint edge and the accent-edge hover. DESIGN says so, with log rows.
- F6: ~15 bg-card / bg-border / opacity hovers onto the B3 state layer; a lint rule (HOVER_SWAP)
refuses the swap, contract-tested.
- F10: bare 14px icon links onto IconLink / LinkButton; a local lint rule refuses a glyph-only <a>.
- F13: reason-disabled controls are aria-disabled (Users, Channels backfill, Discovery, Scheduler
runs, Config tests); FocusSafeButton now swallows the click of a caller's aria-disabled; the
Config tests say why while dirty (testDirty, HU/EN).
- F5/F11: every control measured live at 24 (mouse) and 44 (coarse) across every page; touch-target
is a utility that wins over a caller's min-h-6; link variants carry it too; SegmentedToggle,
Tabs, NavRail, menu rows, PriorityStepper, sliders, CheckRow, InnerInput, card links and the rest.
- F9: DismissibleChip's label reaches the chip's 24; the Combobox chips are DismissibleChips.
- F15: the "+N" / "More..." open state worded as it renders.
- ui/Input, Textarea, InnerInput + fieldClass (A4): the >= 3:1 edge, a 2px accent
focus edge, the danger edge for invalid, md/sm/xs/heading rungs, 1rem and 44 on touch
- ui/SelectTrigger (A5): SortControl, FilterSelect, the view switcher and the date
filter on one trigger, a pill in a toolbar, r8 in a form
- ui/NativeControls (A6): Checkbox, CheckRow, Slider, ColorInput
- every raw input swept (~100 sites); inputCls retired; local/input-primitive
- useReturnFocus: an in-place editor hands the focus back to its trigger on
Enter/Escape (the playlist and Plex title renames, the priority number);
the Plex playlist rename gains Escape and an accessible name
- back to top: a round 48 FAB (owner decision); DESIGN.md A2 and the log
The second half of the button sweep: the remaining hand-rolled buttons in
feature components, the design lab and the components/ui composites now
stand on Button, IconButton, Pressable, Chip or DragHandle.
- Chip + DismissibleChip (filter / token / tag / suggest / ghost, 24px
floor, 44 on touch) replace five chip geometries; FilterChipGroup
renders Chips; overflow lanes measure a mirror painted by chipClass.
- The Plex control row is IconButton's player rung (36, 20px glyph,
round, overlay; 44 on touch); the YT modal bar is on the sm rung with
pressed cycle toggles and names that survive a folded label.
- New variants: IconButton ghost-accent, danger-soft; Button warn on a
new state-warn utility. The .btn-{tone} recipes and btnCls are gone.
- Fixed on the way: membership rows (collection editor, Plex playlist
add) announce checked/mixed; a one-letter tag chip was 21px wide;
descriptionLinks moved out of lib/ (it renders components).
- local/button-primitive: a raw <button>/<FocusSafeButton> outside the
control-primitive files is a lint error (contract-tested, seen red).
- "A page with a sticky ColumnHead must declare fadeTop: false" lived in
prose: a registry flag on three pages plus an App special case for the
Channels card layout, and the next table page would have re-acquired the
fade-on-the-header defect with every lane green. ColumnHead now registers
itself with the enclosing PageScroller (ui/stickyTop) while mounted; the
registry flag, the App branch and the prop plumbing are gone. Measured on
localdev: the top mask is 0px under Channels' and Audit's headers, 20px on
Home and the Feed.
- ui/DataTable mounted its table AND its card list at every width, one
hidden by CSS: double DOM and render cost, duplicate ids, two keyboard
copies of every row. It now mounts the one the `md` media query calls for
(lib/useMediaQuery); the keyboard test asserts one layout at each width.
- The Plex module's content width went px → rem with the rest of the page.
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.
Typing "theme" put the channel "The Meltzone Podcast" (matched only through its handle
`@themeltzone`) above every "Theme: …" row, and Enter opened the channel — the palette listed
matches in pure group order and always highlighted the first one.
- CommandPalette ranks each word: label starts with it > elsewhere in the label > only the hint,
keywords or group name; an item ranks by its worst word, then the sum. The group order stays
fixed, rows are ranked inside each group, and the best row overall starts highlighted. The
highlight is held by id and follows the best match until the arrows or the pointer pick a row,
so a channel list landing mid-typing no longer shifts it.
- A11y: result groups are `role="group"` named by their heading; `aria-expanded` is false with
nothing to choose; the listbox stays mounted (hidden) so `aria-controls` never names a missing
element, and "Nothing matches" sits outside it; a polite status announces the count once the
typing pauses.
- `Column`/`FilterMap`/`filterRows`/`isActive` move from `ui/tableHeader` to `lib/tableColumns`,
and the player's auto/loop modes from `playerModalControls` to `lib/playerModes` — three lib
helpers imported the column contract from a ui component, and `playerModalHooks` its types from a
feature component.
- eslint: `lib/` may not import from `components/` at any depth, type-only and re-exports included;
the boundary contract test proves it fires. CLAUDE.md and the ui README say so.
- keymap: `dispatch`'s docblock sat stacked on `matchesShortcut`'s; moved onto `dispatch`.
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.
