Gates the folder move had narrowed or left open: the MenuCheck contract scans the whole app again (it
saw only components/); local/layers refuses an import of an entry (main.tsx, the /watch page) from
any layer, and reads a backtick import() as the path it is; the /watch contract forbids the shell,
the modules and the features by folder (its one path to App had gone stale); chunkGuard's own test
gets the vitest focus/skip rules. The root tests' exemption from local/layers is in the gate
register, with its three imports.
Placement: Plex's chip builder moves into lib beside the feed's, the folder names into
features/folders, and three files only one page uses into that page. ui/FilterRail takes its reset
from useRail instead of a page id. The channel page reads the feed's view and builds "Show in feed"
itself, and the feed's scroll key is the feed's hook, so the shell holds no feed logic.
The floating header re-measures when one page's pills replace another's in the same commit (the
claim count stayed equal, so only the observer caught it). A Plex view applied and edited now stays
across a visit to another page, as the feed's does: pinned by a test. docs/development.md says what a
page with a rail adds in lib.
The guard's logic was a src/lib file the config project also listed. The app project, which
references the config project, then refuses that source on a clean build (TS6305) — while every
local run reused the referenced project's cached output and stayed green; only the Docker image
build failed. The logic is back inside chunkGuard.ts, its test beside it at the frontend root
(vitest now also collects `*.test.ts` there), and a gate contract fails when the config project's
include reaches into src/ again. The guard was re-proved on a build with a leaking re-export.
`local/layers` (eslint.config.js) resolves every import to its file and refuses one that goes up
(lib/ → components/ui/ → features/ → modules/ → shell/) or that reaches into another module's own
files. A module's index.ts is its public face: the stores, mounted at the root and read app-wide,
which features/ may read too; a page is still opened lazily by import(). Its contract test probes
every edge, and three mutants of the rule (off, no face check, a door for everyone) each turn it red.
Six modules got that face; the shared channel UI (about, tags, tag manager) moved to
features/channel, the filter chips and the saved-views context to features/filters, and the prefs
store's controller type moved next to the store instead of importing it from its own page. The
header's per-module controls and the eagerly loaded rails keep eight inline suppressions, each
naming why: they go when the header gets slots and every rail loads lazily.
`chunkGuard` fails the production build when a lazily imported module lands in a boot chunk (the
entry, the shell, what they import) — e.g. a page re-exported from an index.ts, which makes its
import() a silent no-op. Proved on a build with that mutant; today's build has none.
A pure move (git mv, history kept): 333 files leave components/, which now holds only the platform
layer (ui/) and the legal pages. The shell is the frame (App, header, nav rail, palette, boot); each
page lives in modules/<page>/ with its rail, store and tests; what several pages share sits in
features/<name>/; the shared-link page is watch/. Domain-free helpers went straight to ui/
(ViewSwitcher, FilterRail, the confirm dialog, the language switcher, the copy rows).
Every relative specifier was rewritten (imports, dynamic imports, vi.mock, new URL), and the
contract tests that scan sources now scan the whole app source, not only components/ — each glob
was counted before and after so none went green over fewer files. The locale-format rule matched
`/src/components/` only, so the move would have taken ~300 files out from under its i18n-singleton
check; it now covers every folder that holds components, with a test per folder.
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 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.
Two rules looked at the same <button>: button-primitive refused a raw one
outside the control primitives, focus-safe-disabled refused a raw
`disabled` one everywhere but FocusSafeButton and AnchoredPopover. They are
one rule now, with the same reach: outside the primitives a raw button is
refused (a disabled one with the focus message); inside a primitive and in
a test only a raw `<button disabled>` is, and the two native-disabled owners
are named in the rule rather than in a config override. One override block,
one rule entry and two register rows go; the snapshot loses a config group.
focusSafe.contract.test.ts pins every case, the primitive and test ones new.
BOX_PX and GRID_MIN_PX were two esquery patterns with two messages for one
rule (DESIGN.md: a px box does not scale with --font-scale). They are one
alternation now, with one message that names both fixes. Nothing it refused
before passes now; pxBox.contract.test.ts pins both shapes unchanged.
Both came out of the E28 claim audit (0521149c named z-levels, e13d93a3
static labels as flat Badges) after the audit itself had fixed the sites.
No real hit since: 0 matches in every lint run from E28 to E34 (S2/S3
measurement). Each still cost a probe test (zLayer.contract, the edged-label
half of hoverAndLink.contract) and a place in the gate snapshot. The design
rules stay in DESIGN.md (Tokens: no ad-hoc z-index; Static vs pressable),
with a decision-log row saying the selectors went and why.
react-hooks/exhaustive-effect-dependencies, memoized-effect-dependencies and
rule-suppression were switched on in E32 "for the plugin version that wires
them up". Read in the plugin source and probed (E32 review): the first's
validation is compiled off, nothing emits the second's category, and lint
mode hands the third no suppression rules. 0 hits by construction — a rule
that cannot report reads as coverage it does not give. The comment keeps
their names and why, so a plugin upgrade can re-check them.
E2EE direct messages, the chat dock, the Messages module, the message
WebSocket and its realtime registry, and the messages / message_keys
tables (migration 0097; the downgrade restores the empty schema). Prod
held two welcome notes, no message between people and one key — never
used (owner decision, E34). WebSocket now has no owner module: the lint
bans it everywhere. Privacy policy updated: it no longer promises E2EE
for a feature that is gone.
eslint.config.js called every zero-hit React Compiler diagnostic a tripwire. Under
eslint-plugin-react-hooks 7.1.1 three cannot report anything: exhaustive-effect-dependencies (its
validation is compiled off), memoized-effect-dependencies (nothing emits its category) and
rule-suppression (lint mode passes no suppression rules). Probed: a missing effect dependency is
reported by exhaustive-deps only, and an inline disable is named by nothing. The header's
"33 suppressions" of exhaustive-deps is 0. reactPlugin.ts said one react-hooks rule was still
off; none is (three run at warn, which --max-warnings 0 fails).
E32 S4 — the burn-down from 29 skipped functions to 1:
- try/finally (26 sites): the cleanup runs after a try/catch; steps that return early moved into
their own function (push, the setup wizard's next, the share page's unlock).
- A conditional, loop or optional call inside a try skips the function too, and react-hooks/todo
does not see it: the value is computed before the try, or the try lives in a module-level helper
(config writes, clip queueing, clipboard, frame counts, seekable end, YouTube player times).
- The two exhaustive-deps suppressions are gone. useYtProgress takes its per-item snapshot through
one effect event, read once when the player is built; PlexPlayer's unmount relies on the
leaving-the-item cleanup for the generation bump it duplicated.
- What the skips hid: PlexPlayer's 17 render-phase ref writes (useLatest), its tracks popover alias,
the loadSession self-reference (declared early, set after commit); PlayerModal's session-position
read during render (now where the player starts), navRef/modeRef writes, and a description helper
that ran a ref-carrying callback during render (now PlayerDescription); SavedViewsProvider's
latest-cfg ref, and its setState in the seed effect (preferSticky now prefers the starred default
among same-filter views, so the seed needs no sticky write — test seen red on the old helper).
- A store's hook was called `use()`, which the compiler does not know as a hook: inside the newly
compiled usePlaylistActions it was memoized, ran on the first render alone, and the playlist rail
threw "rendered fewer hooks" on its second render. Renamed to `useValue()` everywhere; the old
contract test claimed the call was safe inside any `use…` function, which was false — replaced by
a render test that is red under the old name.
- PlexPlayer's palette ref was written and never read since the Backspace guard moved to the layer
stack: removed.
react-hooks/refs is back at error with no exception. The ratchet lists only VirtualGrid
(IncompatibleLibrary) and pins both players as compiled. No size or complexity ceiling was raised.
react-hooks/refs 245 -> 31 hits and 93 -> 29 skipped functions in the register and the eslint
comment. The canonical-patterns table gets the latest-value row (useEffectEvent; a handler or timer:
useLatest / useStableCallback, never a render-phase ref write) and the popover / scroll-fade row
(destructure the ref setter).
compilerCoverage.contract.test.ts used to check two files. It now runs the
real compiler over all of src (minus tests) and holds the exact set it skips
today, file -> function -> category: 93 functions. A new skip or a category
change is red, and so is a listed skip that has gone, so the list only
shrinks. Channels and DataTable must also show up as compiled, so a harness
that compiled nothing cannot pass.
Measured against the audit's scan: no function this sprint touched started
to skip. PlexPersonView and useOverlayOrder now compile.
reactPlugin.ts claimed the compiler's rules were linted, which was false
while react-hooks/refs was off. That comment and the refs block in
eslint.config.js now say what holds the line and why refs is still off:
245 real hits, pinned by the ratchet, burned down from S3.
eslint now also enforces:
- the React Compiler diagnostics that `recommended` leaves out (todo,
memo-dependencies and ten zero-hit tripwires);
- a description on every suppression, and no blanket disables;
- no focused or skipped tests (vitest and playwright);
- the typed pair no-floating-promises and no-deprecated.
Lint also covers e2e/ and the TypeScript build configs, which `eslint .`
had been skipping in silence.
Every hit is fixed or suppressed inline with a named reason:
- The 31 try statements the compiler cannot lower yet carry a suppression
until S3 rewrites them. Five other compiler skips were plain fixes:
a module counter bumped inside a hook, a ref read in a default
parameter, and a local named like the <section> it renders.
- The real defects behind floating promises are fixed. ChatDock threw at
nobody when the device key store could not be opened. VideoEditor's
play() rejection went unhandled. loadYouTubeApi never rejected, so a
blocked IFrame API left the player on an empty stage forever; it now
fails on a script error or after 15 s, shows its own error with the
way out, and lets the next open try again.
- MutableRefObject, FormEvent and lucide's deprecated brand icon are
replaced. The YouTube glyph now lives in lib/brandIcons.
- The lint-probe harness lets its virtual file names into TypeScript's
default project, so the contract tests still run the real config.
react-query's fetchNextPage cancels a next page still loading and sends it again by default.
Our requests ignore the abort signal, so the server ran both: the feed's read-ahead effect
re-runs on scroll frames before isFetchingNextPage reaches it, and on prod every feed page
went out 2-3 times (a 0.8 s title sort queued to 2.3 s). Every call now passes NEXT_PAGE
({cancelRefetch: false}), lint-enforced, with a contract test.
- audit log: a job run named from its result data (nested phases too), a skipped run says so, a
secret's reset reads as a reset, choices named as Configuration names them, interval / batch /
counts localized; the inbox shares the same jobRunText
- HU: remux is "Közvetlen közvetítés" (it shared "Közvetlen lejátszás" with direct play); backfill is
behúzás, enrich is dúsítás, collection is kollekció, the allow-list is fehérlista; the last
"jobnak" / "transzkódolás"; a test holds the options of one choice to distinct names
- contract: every skipped / reason word a job returns is named in both languages
- person page: the bio wait is timed from the open and a failing ask stops the polling; ClampedText
(ui) shared with the collection page, whose short summary lost its dead More
- a playlist names season 0 the Specials; the channel re-slot compares in the reader's alphabet; an
invite's date is in the admin's language; the language-ordered lists are asked again once a
language switch is saved (saveLanguage)
- poster grids' column minimum in rem; lint refuses minmax(Npx,…)
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
CLAUDE.md, DESIGN.md and ui/README said a raw <button> is allowed anywhere in components/ui/; the
lint rule allows it only in BUTTON_PRIMITIVES (and refuses a bare FocusSafeButton elsewhere too).
The focus-safe rule's message no longer points feature code at FocusSafeButton. The README's
'actions & inputs' row was split in two by a stray line break.
The owner's picks (all the recommended options) become DESIGN.md's Copy
chapter and a sweep of both languages (742 values, no key drift):
- One name per feature: the rail's label, which may shorten it (Alerts
-> Notifications, Fiókok -> Felhasználók, Download Center -> Downloads,
Channel manager -> Channels); one "sync from YouTube" verb.
- Four verbs, four meanings (Delete / Remove / Dismiss / Discard, and
their Hungarian pairs), checked against what each action does.
- Sentence case, the app's places capitalised; "…" on a command that
asks first (a popover or form title got its own key without it);
one-sentence messages without a stop or a tick, "Couldn't …"; curly
quotes.
- Dates only from lib/format.ts, in the UI language: formatDateTime
names the month and stops at the minute (it printed "9/27/2026,
8:30:14 AM"), formatDateTimeSec for the log, the audit and the
recorder; ui/RelativeTime pairs "3d ago" with the exact minute on
hover. local/date-format refuses toLocale*String and Intl date
formatters elsewhere.
- Units from Intl, short (formatUnit): runtimes, totals, the Scheduler
countdown, the stats range, the player's tap skip. "2h 13m" was
English in both languages.
- src/i18n/copyRule.test.ts holds the machine-readable part (quotes,
"...", ticks, bare unit letters).
The probe re-run over the 15 pages at 1920x1080 found every button, icon
button, chip, field, tab, segment and menu row drawn by its primitive
except the S3h Plex picture, a div with the button role. It is a
Pressable now, and the button-primitive lint rule refuses an element
with role="button" outside the control primitives.
- SegmentedToggle defaults to the toolbar rung (28, text-xs): the old
small default had put the pager's page sizes and the YouTube result
count on 10px type beside 28px buttons. The Plex match toggle asks
for the small rung explicitly.
- The language badge on the rail uses text-3xs (was an 8px one-off);
the Plex playlist's watched mark and the Home hero's length use
MEDIA_BADGE instead of hand-copied classes.
- A media picture shows the pointer whether it is a link or a button.
- DESIGN.md: a Conformance chapter (the four-step check before a UI
change is done, with the S3g baseline), the segmented rung, two log
rows. CLAUDE.md points at the check.
- Download row: answers to its own width (container query); below 40rem
it stacks: picture beside a two-line title, the meta line across the
row (one line, never wraps: zoomed on the iPad its pieces broke apart),
then the source link and the actions on one wrapping line. The paste
field takes a line of its own when the buttons would squeeze it.
- YT playlist row: below 42rem the length rides on the picture and the
title runs two lines over the channel.
- Channels tag row: the suggestions take a line of their own below
40rem (the chip lane was 0 px and the row's menu off the screen).
- Pager: on a phone the arrows drop their words (names kept), and the
size label stays one line.
- Lint: a class split where the interpolation is the variant itself
(${NARROW}:w-24) is refused too; it had shipped with no CSS.
The layer was the name button's own and ended at the row's first badge or button. The card now paints
the B3 layer under its content (isolate + a new z-under level), the name button's hit layer spans the
card, and the actions sit above it.
buttonStyles/chipStyles glued the hover guard on at runtime (`${ACT}hover:text-fg`). Tailwind emits CSS
only for a class it finds whole in the source, so all 22 guarded hovers shipped with no rule: no text or
edge colour on hover for ghost/outline/danger buttons, no white layer on the player's control row, no
underline on a link button, no accent hover on token/suggest/ghost chips. The stylesheet had 0 rules
for `not-aria-disabled`.
- `@custom-variant act` (index.css): the same guard as the state layers; `:disabled` never matches an
<a>, so one variant serves buttons and links and the per-element variant maps go.
- ui/tailwindScan.contract.test.ts: every class the primitives can emit stands whole in their source.
- a lint rule refuses a variant right after an interpolation; the `enabled:hover:` rule now points at
`act:hover:`.
- F16: --rating (theme-scoped gold, 4.5:1 on the page and its chip), --rating-media, --live/--live-fg,
--media-chrome replace 14 palette literals; a lint rule refuses palette classes; the theme contract
measures them.
- The Plex player's notices drew over its open settings/tracks popovers: notices z-base, popovers z-menu.
- The player's info overlay rendered theme tokens on its always-dark panel: on a light theme the score
(2.6:1), collection years (3.2:1) and cast initials (1.05:1) were unreadable; onDark variants now.
- The lint-rule contract tests share one ESLint with a one-off warm-up (a cold first lint took 8 s,
past vitest's 5 s).
- 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.
- In-place editors (Playlists heading + rail rename, Plex collection + playlist rename, PriorityStepper,
Scheduler interval): a real Enter closed the editor, returned the focus to the trigger, and the same
keystroke's activation pressed that trigger again - re-opening the editor, or in the rail selecting
the renamed playlist. useReturnFocus.arm(e) now cancels the key's default (type-enforced); the rail and
Scheduler editors do the same. The earlier tests dispatched a synthetic keydown, which has no default.
- Plex playlist rename: an unchanged or empty title closes with no write, as the collection rename does.
- Switch: a 36x24 box around the track (the 24 floor), 44 on a coarse pointer; `label` is required, and
the Plex two-way-sync switch had no name.
- z-index: numeric z-10/z-20 and a literal 40 moved onto the named layer scale; a lint rule + contract.
- The /watch file card's Download is the filled primary: the page's one action.
- Stale comments: the 1024x768 floor, the retired glass tuner.
- A glass role's shadow is one token (shadow-float); the header search's drop-shadow utility had
replaced its top highlight, and the debug pill's shadow-lg did the same. The surface-role lint
rule now refuses a shadow size beside a role.
- Plex: every value that filters carries a hint (genre, certificate, studio had none), and the facts
panel's year and certificate filter like the header's. filterKeyword -> filterValue.
- Downloads: the row resized its buttons with a [&_button] override that the save link escaped
(28px beside 32px); the size is the primitive's md rung now.
- 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).
- docs/DESIGN.md: the written source of truth for the UI. Decided chapters
(principles, device adaptation, action placement, text stays selectable,
interaction rules, copy, anti-patterns, decision log); controls and
surfaces are marked Pending until the owner picks from the lab.
- /design-lab (dev only): renders each open decision's variants with the
app's real CSS, themes and font scale. Batch A = six control decisions.
- devOnlyGuard: a production build fails if anything under src/design-lab
reaches the bundle (seen red with an unguarded import).
- Size contract: tablet portrait + landscape and up, replacing the
1024x768 floor with its never-built "too small" message.
Closes the burn-down. Hook suppressions 113 -> 34, `exhaustive-deps` 45 -> 2 (the target was
<10), and every one of the 34 survivors is an inline directive NAMING the invariant it
protects. The suppressions file is deleted, because a bulk file hides the next violation
instead of answering it — and it cannot hold a warning-level rule at all.
The sprint plan's three verdicts missed the answer that turned out to be the most common one:
adjust the state DURING RENDER. React re-runs the component and discards that pass rather than
committing it, so the stale frame an effect-based reset paints does not exist. Applied to the
Plex player's up-next card, the playlist view reset, the feed's optimistic overrides, the
channel banner's retry count, the download center's tab guard, the Plex search highlight, the
comfort-pin latch, Welcome's per-view outcome and the card pager's page clamp. It is legal only
for a component's own state — PlexBrowse's language commit resets PlexProvider's filters, so
that one stays an effect and says why.
Mirrors of a prop or query became derived values or `draft ?? server`:
- `downloadRow` had ui/Avatar's defect exactly — a boolean "poster failed" that an effect reset,
in rows recycled down a virtualized list, so one job's missing poster painted over the next
one's for a frame. Keyed by URL now.
- Scheduler's two number editors held a mirror an effect re-synced, on a page that POLLS — the
shape a poll can overwrite mid-edit. A draft while editing, the server's value otherwise; six
tests where there were none, the one behavioural change (the save button stops being dirty at
commit rather than at the echo) mutation-checked.
- SetupWizard's "no token" and WatchPage's "gone" are facts about the URL, so they are seeded and
derived rather than pushed into state by an effect that had to commit first.
Elsewhere: PlexInfo's rating chip was a component declared during render — a new component type
every render, so React remounted the subtree and dropped the focus on its filter button. Hoisted.
Feed's undo action and PlexPlayer's session reclaim both re-entered their own useCallback, which
the checker reads as a forward reference; both go through the ref idiom this file already uses.
BootGate's dep list was load-bearing for correctness — a re-run meant `location.reload()` — so
the "already adopted THIS identity" comparison now enforces it in code, with a test that fails
without it (the existing reload tests all install their spy too late to catch it).
One correction to the batch before this: keying ChatThread's and Messages' decrypt passes on
`q.data` instead of `q.dataUpdatedAt` was wrong. react-query's structural sharing makes it safe
in production, but the component must not melt down when something hands back a fresh object per
render — and Messages.keyboard.dom.test does exactly that, so the effect span the suite. Both are
back on the fetch as the trigger with the payload behind a ref, which is honest AND loop-proof;
the replaced comment had warned about precisely this.
CLAUDE.md gains four canonical-patterns rows for the above, and its "React 18" line is now true.
The compiler auto-memoises, which is the point: it infers what the app's
112 `useCallback` and 48 `useMemo` call sites were hand-written for and
applies the equivalent itself. It is on repo-wide with no opt-out list —
it bails on anything it cannot prove safe, and says so through the lint
rules. Verified in the built bundle rather than assumed: 369
`react.memo_cache_sentinel` markers across 35 of the 76 chunks.
ONE transform, shared by vite.config.ts and vitest.config.ts through
reactPlugin.ts. Not two `react()` calls: if the compiler ran only in the
production build, every vitest run would exercise code the user never
receives and a compiler-induced change would ship green — the same
gate-vs-image split 0.93.2 was released to fix. The plugin is imported
rather than named by the usual string, because a string is invisible to
knip and, worse, a typo in it is a silent no-op that ships an uncompiled
bundle, while a bad import is a tsc error.
eslint-plugin-react-hooks 5 -> 7 brings the whole compiler rule set: 283
findings, triaged rather than bulk-suppressed, because the two halves
needed different answers.
react-hooks/refs (217) is OFF. 153 of those 217 are this app's popover
architecture, not its history: 79 are @floating-ui/react's documented
`pop.refs.setReference` / `getReferenceProps` callback-ref setters, and
74 more are passing the popover handle down as a prop, which is what
components/ui's popover engine is for. Suppressing them would not help
the next popover anyone writes. The remaining ~64 are genuine
render-phase `ref.current = x` writes and are real, but the rule cannot
tell them apart here; they are E27 S2's work.
The other 66 go into eslint-suppressions.json as a ratchet — new
violations fail the gate, and `--prune-suppressions` makes a fixed one
fail too until it is removed. 45 of them are `set-state-in-effect`,
which IS E27 S2's subject, so that sprint now has a measured worklist.
react-i18next deliberately stays on 14. It never declared a React-19
peer — every version from 14 to 17 asks only for `react >= 16.8.0` — and
what the newer lines actually require is i18next 25/26 against our 23.
That is an i18n runtime migration wearing a React hat, and it buys this
sprint nothing.
Two React 19 type changes: `useRef<T>(null)` is now `RefObject<T | null>`
(the honest shape — the element is null until it mounts), so
PlexPlayerSettings' prop follows; and reactPlugin.ts joins
tsconfig.node.json's include.
The compiler skips memoising VirtualGrid and reports it: TanStack
Virtual's `useVirtualizer()` returns functions that cannot be memoised
without going stale. That is the right trade for a component whose cost
is its row window, and it is the one such site in the app, so it carries
a targeted disable with the reason — a second incompatible library
anywhere else must still stop the gate.
Nine lanes green, vitest 1558. Browser UAT on the dev server against the
still-running React 18 build as a control: boot, feed (virtualized grid,
popover menu, a filter change that moved the list 195,187 -> 64 items
with the URL mirrored, so no stale memoised UI), command palette, player
modal — no console errors on any of it.
- The palette launcher's name replaced its visible "Jump to…" (and the key cap's its "Ctrl K"):
a voice-control "click Jump to" matched nothing (WCAG 2.5.3). Each name contains its text now.
- SegmentedToggle's `title` was only a tooltip on a non-focusable box — the live search's "how
many per batch" hint reached no keyboard or screen-reader user. It is the group's accessible
description, standalone and captioned alike.
- The unused-key contract let a template like `card.${status}` cover its whole namespace, which hid
five dead keys (deleted). Dynamic keys are matched by shape (`editor.*.hint`); a bare namespace
shape covers nothing, and the audit/quota namespaces are now held both ways by backendIds.
- CLAUDE.md's "FE control" row matches the lint rule it cites; each no-restricted-syntax entry has
its reason directly above it.
A FocusSafeButton that holds the focus is disabled by aria-disabled, not the native attribute, so
every hover gated on `:disabled` / `enabled:` alone still fired on it — the glass lift, the primary /
danger / warn dim, and eight `enabled:hover:` chains (saved views, the player's list buttons, the
undo toolbar). Measured on localdev: the Pager's Next, focused at the last page, now keeps its resting
border and shadow under the pointer. The CSS selectors and the chains also exclude
`[aria-disabled="true"]`, and a lint rule refuses a bare `enabled:hover:` from now on.
Owner's pick from the S7 mockups (2026-09-19): a short fixed set is a SegmentedToggle — the live
search's result count, the table's rows per page, a download profile's mode (on its own row, so the
three worded choices fit a phone) and audio format — and a longer set or the user's own list is a
FilterSelect: the profile's quality (seven heights) and the download dialog's profile.
A lint rule refuses a native <select> from now on (the canonical "FE control" row). The px-frozen
size rules also caught up with a fraction: `text-[9.5px]` had slipped past the integer-only pattern
in the Glass tuner, which is rem now.
dnd-kit's screen-reader text is hard-coded English and names an item by its id ("Draggable item
10357 was dropped", a role of "sortable"). Only the YouTube playlist replaced it; the Plex playlist,
the saved-views list and the side-panel groups read it out under a Hungarian UI — found while
checking the Plex playlist's keyboard reorder on localdev.
`ui/sortableA11y` is now the one place: `useSortableA11y` gives a DndContext its instructions and
announcements (HU/EN, `common.dnd.*`), `useSortableItem` announces the role. The YouTube playlist's
own announcements move onto it, which also fixes them: its lists reorder on drop, so reading the
dragged row's own index said "moved to position 1" at every step and "dropped at position 1"
wherever the row went. The place announced is now the slot the row would land in.
A `local/sortable-a11y` lint rule (with its contract test) refuses a DndContext without
`accessibility` and a direct `useSortable`.
- The Plex playlist rows' "reorder"/"remove", the Plex filter chip's "remove" and the player
slider's "reset" were English literals; each now names its row or setting in HU/EN.
- The playlist show header's chevron had no accessible name; its decorative thumbnail button left
the tab order.
- The opt-in Glass tuner panel was English only: every word is translated, and each slider's label
now names its number box and range.
- New `local/literal-a11y-text` lint rule (with its contract test): a literal word in aria-label,
title, placeholder, alt and the other spoken/shown attributes fails lint.
A focused button that turns natively disabled loses the focus to <body> in
Chrome. The app disables the very button that was pressed on ~60 sites — a
mutation pending, a pager at its last page, undo with nothing left, a player
at the end of its queue, a form gone clean — so a keyboard user was thrown
out of the page on every such press.
One primitive instead of a fix per site: ui/FocusSafeButton renders a
focused-and-disabled (or busy) button as aria-disabled with a click guard,
and applies the native attribute again once the focus is elsewhere. It asks
the document at render time as well as listening for focus events, because
a window without focus fires none (measured). ui/Button and ui/form's Switch
are built on it; 57 hand-rolled buttons swapped their tag for it keeping
their classes, and three hand-copies of the rule (the channel page's Block
and Hide, ChannelDiscovery's Subscribe) now pass `busy`. The soft state's
dim look is one rule in index.css.
`local/focus-safe-disabled` refuses a new raw <button disabled>, pinned by
focusSafe.contract.test.ts. lib/plexDetailUi moved to components/: it is
components, and lib may not import the primitive.
Measured on localdev in Chrome: the audit log's Next button keeps the focus
on reaching the last page, reads aria-disabled, and the guarded click does
nothing.
- PriorityStepper labelled itself with channels.row.* and told every caller
it orders the Feed; Combobox said plex.loading / plex.filter.moreRefine /
sidebar.match on the feed sidebar. The generic strings moved to common.*,
and what a priority MEANS arrives as the stepper's `hint` prop.
uiI18n.contract.test.ts pins components/ui/ to the platform namespaces —
the import boundary could never see an i18n key.
- 32 px-frozen box utilities (w-[150px], max-w-[1600px], left-[18px], …)
became spacing-scale steps (w-37.5, max-w-400, left-4.5): identical at the
default text size, and now they grow with the Settings slider instead of
clipping or re-wrapping their own labels. An eslint rule refuses the px
form beside the older text-[Npx] one, pinned by pxBox.contract.test.ts;
measured in the browser that every new step is generated at its old px.
- chipLane's import-strip regex ran past a side-effect import into the next
statement's `from`, hiding a lane between them; it now stops at the
import's own `;`.
~150 HTTPExceptions carried a hand-written English sentence as their detail,
shown verbatim under the Hungarian UI — in the blocking error dialog and on
every inline surface that printed HttpError.detail (sign-in, setup wizard,
change password, the passphrase gate, live search). Four also quoted an
upstream exception's text back to the user.
- app/refusal.py: `refused(status, reason, **params)` → {code: "refused",
reason, …params}; localizeDetail translates errors.refused.<reason> with the
params interpolated. "Unknown X" 404s use the existing not_found(what).
- sysconfig.set_value raises InvalidSetting (reason + bounds) instead of an
English ValueError; the three writers answer it through setting_refused.
- The Plex connection/write/image failures log what the upstream said and
answer a reason; the search scraper's failure is logged and answered as
youtube/unavailable (it crashed refusal_reason before).
- HttpError.detail now only ever holds a translated reason: a string detail
(only the framework's own can remain) is left out, so reading .detail is
safe everywhere — including destructured, the hole the raw-detail source
scan could not see. That scan and its five-file exception list are gone.
- Enforced: test_http_details.py fails on any HTTPException with a sentence
for a detail; the contract test requires every refused reason and every
not_found "what" in both languages, and no key for one that is gone.
- local/jsx-comment-text: a // inside JSX children renders as text; the rule
is ten lines in eslint.config.js rather than eslint-plugin-react's ~1800
lockfile lines.
The browser now keeps its half of the one event shape logs.py defines:
lib/log.ts is a levelled, redacted, bounded (2000 events) in-memory ring
with the server's level names and severity numbers. Nothing leaves the
browser yet; sending is the consented diagnostics level (S5).
- lib/http.ts `send` is the one fetch: every request carries an
X-Request-Id and becomes one http.request event. The server echoes the
matched route template in X-Route (only for a matched route, so a raw
path with a value in it is never sent back); without one the client
templates the path itself. req, beacon, the upload XHR, the public
watch page and the legal pages all go through it.
- Hooks: app start snapshot, uncaught errors and rejections, History
push/replace/popstate (a scroll-only replace is not an event; parameter
values only at DEBUG, typed search only at TRACE), notifications, the
error dialog, the crash boundary, failed queries and mutations (key
head only), and the messages socket (lifecycle, frame types at DEBUG).
- Redaction is one contract: backend/tests/fixtures/log_redaction_cases.json
runs against both redact() implementations.
- Lint: fetch, XMLHttpRequest and WebSocket each belong to one logging
module, console to none; a contract test proves the rules fire.
Fixes a socket takeover: the close of a socket released by the last
subscriber cleared the newer socket a quick re-subscribe had opened and
scheduled a third, leaving two live sockets that delivered every message
twice (measured in Chromium: 3 created / 2 live before, 2 / 1 after).
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 epic-end review found 32 verified issues. This is the first fix round:
the three highs, the user-facing mediums, and the tests that were passing
for the wrong reason. Docs and the remaining low-severity tail are next.
The boundary rule was the worst of them. Both `no-restricted-imports`
regexes were written in plain "..." literals, where `\.` is an unknown
escape that collapses to the any-char `.` — so the rule read like a
boundary and matched far less than one. `../../lib/api` (the barrel every
feature component imports) and `../../components/Feed` (the same file
`../Feed` names) both sailed through a green gate. String.raw, a third
pattern for the second spelling, and a vitest over ESLint.lintText so a
rule that silently matches nothing can never look like a clean codebase
again.
closeThenNavigate waited for exactly one reclaim popstate. With a second
Back-closable layer still mounted — a palette opened over the player —
the navigation unmounted that layer too, and its reconcile backed over
the entry the navigation had just pushed: "go to Channels" closed the
player and landed on the feed. It now waits for the LAST programmatic
back, then adopts the entries the navigation buried, and falls back after
250ms rather than hanging if no popstate is ever coming.
The rail's inline rename died on arrival. With no domReference, floating-
ui's returnFocus falls through to a module-global stack and restores some
unrelated element from an earlier popover — blurring the field into its
own commit-and-close, from the second popover of a session onward. The
context menu now owns the restore: back to the row, but only if the row
is still there and nothing else has claimed focus.
Also:
- Backspace under the cheat sheet stopped Plex playback and dropped to
the grid; `back` now defers to any layer above, like `escape` beside it.
- A move invalidated only the source list, so the target kept serving
pre-move contents for 30s while the rail already counted N+1.
- Every move error a user can reach is a 404, which `req` leaves to the
caller — so the row snapped back in silence and the shipped moveErrors
strings were unreachable.
- swallowClick armed on long-press but was disarmed only by the click it
was armed for; any press that produced no click ate the next tap on the
whole list.
- The context menu stayed parked over whatever row scrolled under it.
- overflow-clip on the chip lanes ate the focus ring's top and bottom.
- "Why is this off" rode on disabled rows, which show no tooltip and take
no focus: a new `inert` item keeps the reason readable.
- Shift+F10 was advertised app-wide but wired only on Playlists; it has
its own scope now, and useContextMenu matches through the shared parser
instead of its own literals.
- Mod+K could not close the palette, `h` machine-gunned on auto-repeat,
and both were bound above the branch that mounts their overlays.
- Palette options were in the tab order under aria-activedescendant, and
a scroll-synthesised mousemove stole the keyboard selection.
- The OSD live region was created together with its own text.
- Ending a rename stranded focus on <body>.
- The Button variants' hover halves are `enabled:` — the one migrated
site that had guarded its own lost the guard on the way in.
- HU builtinLocked named the list "Watch later" in a Hungarian sentence.
Tests: the chip-lane contract counted per FILE, so a second hand-rolled
lane in an already-compliant file was invisible; the closeThenNavigate
ordering test only passed on a popstate left behind by its neighbours and
failed alone, so it moved to its own file.
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.
- eslint no-restricted-syntax: a new text-[Npx] font size is now an error (matches
strings + template chunks; rem arbitraries like text-[0.75rem] don't match). Keeps
the rem system from silently rotting. Mutation-verified it fires on text-[Npx].
- index.css: document the token-vs-arbitrary split (name the two common small steps;
rare 8/9/12/13px stay text-[Nrem]; never text-xs for 12px — it carries a line-height).
Removes all 13 remaining `any`s and flips the ESLint rule from off to error so
new ones can't creep back:
- api.ts prefs/data JSON bags: Record<string, any> -> Record<string, unknown>,
narrowed at consumers (App language guard; NotificationsPanel shapes the
notification `data` per type behind its existing typeof guards)
- catch (e: any) -> catch (e) + `e instanceof HttpError` narrowing
(SettingsPanel, SetupWizard, PlexPlayer)
- the YouTube IFrame API boundary: new lib/youtube.ts types (YTPlayer/
YTPlayerEvent/YTNamespace + a Window augmentation) replace the 6 player anys;
tsc surfaced the exact method surface to declare
- NotificationsPanel `t` props: any-options -> i18next TFunction
Gate green: typecheck (app+node+e2e), eslint 0 errors (rule now enforced),
prettier, 74 vitest.
