peter 86f467bd65 feat(design): the button families on the decided ladder, first half of the sweep (E28 S3b1)
Button is rebuilt to A1/B1/B3: explicit heights (xs 24 / sm 28 / md 32, lg 40 for a hero CTA), r8 (a
pill on media), state layers instead of opacity and bg-card hovers, a `pressed` toggle, `overlay`,
`media` and `link-muted` variants. The icon-only sizes move to the new IconButton (28 / 32, 48 only for
the Play on a picture; a required label). Pressable (a card, row or tile that is the control) and
DragHandle join them. The state-* utilities now stand down on a disabled, busy or pressed control, held
by theme.contract.test.ts.

Swept onto them: the Button icon-size callers and 16 files (Plex playlist, Plex detail, the YT player
modal chrome, Welcome, Plex and video cards with AddToPlaylist and DownloadButton, the video editor,
Feed, personal views, Scheduler, Users, the nav rail, Plex detail parts, Settings): 268 raw buttons are
153. Fixed on the way: FocusSafeButton overwrote a caller's aria-disabled (the "unavailable, here is
why" state; adminInvites caught it), a season toggle and a Plex settings switch had no name/state, and
the video card's overlay follows the C5 card (Resume pill, From the start pill, a round Play).

peter 7d480e2ad0 feat(design): Matrix toned down to moss, text on an accent fill held to --accent-fg
The lime accent was the loudest of the four (OKLCH L 0.85, C 0.21) and read as neon; the owner chose the
moss variant at Midnight's lightness with near-neutral greys, and the Matrix backdrops follow it. Fixed
white/black parts on a solid accent fill (two switch knobs, three play buttons, the Up next pill) now use
--accent-fg, and theme.contract.test.ts refuses a fixed white or black next to a solid bg-accent.

peter d2e40dcffb feat(design): design lab + DESIGN.md skeleton (E28 S2a)
- 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.

peter 378b7559e4 build(frontend): finish the React 19 move, and hold the versions that were left in prose
react-i18next was still on ^14.1.2. The E27 S1 plan named it as "the one peer that
actually needs moving — React 19 support is the 15 line", and then it did not
move. The 14 line's <Trans> reads `element.ref`, removed in React 19, and its
withTranslation types are built on the GLOBAL JSX namespace @types/react 19 no
longer declares — both latent only because this app imports neither. 15.7.4 fixes
both at the source (`c.props.ref ?? c.ref`, `React.JSX.LibraryManagedAttributes`).

`reactEngine.contract.test.ts` joins its Node and Python twins and holds what was
only a comment: the compiler's `target` against the installed React major, react
and react-dom together, the types against the runtime, and react-i18next's floor.
A stale target is not a corrupt bundle — the plugin validates the option — but it
is a silent one, since tsc never sees Babel's output.

pythonEngine gains the seventh spelling nobody held: `requirements.lock`'s own
regeneration recipe names a python image, and wheels resolve against THAT
interpreter, so a recipe left behind yields a lock that does not match the image
installing it.

The type lane now covers `alembic` too, for the reason the ruff lane was widened
to it — migrations run on every container start, so one that raises crash-loops
prod. It came back at zero new errors, so the baseline is untouched. `tests/` is
deliberately still out, and the config says why.

vitest.config's docblock claimed the React transform is "a no-op for the plain .ts
node tests". It is not: the compiler rewrites src/lib's hooks in that lane too,
which is the point of sharing one factory with the build — and worth knowing
before ruling the compiler out of a divergence.

Tests: useCardPager had none, in either the hook or its two callers, though its
page clamp moved to render in S2 — the transformation where a non-convergent
condition is a crash rather than a glitch. Four cases now, including termination
on an empty list. Combobox's and Avatar's close/failed-URL cases are relabelled
CHARACTERIZATION: both pass against the pre-sweep code, and the tests beside them
are the ones that discriminate.

peter 332d24a646 fix(frontend): four state defects the deep-review found in the E27 S2 sweep
Every one of them is the same shape: a value derived correctly, and a WRITE to
the thing it derives from left unattended. Deriving hides a stale value; it does
not consume it.

PlayerModal — the watch toggle inherited the previous video's auto-watch. Moving
the queue-advance sync into render was right for `currentVideoId`, but the same
block also synced `status`, and that one had an ordering constraint of its own:
useYtProgress's cleanup for the OUTGOING item can still call setWatched(true)
near the end of a clip, and cleanups run after the commit. As an effect the sync
landed last and corrected it; from render it lands first and the stray write
wins. Press Next in the final ten seconds and the NEXT video showed as watched —
one click on the toggle then sent onState(next, "new") for an item already new.
Fixed by keying the mirror to the id it describes, so a write for another item is
ignored rather than displayed, and no ordering has to be argued about at all.

ChannelsProvider — a focus-channel intent was masked by the page rather than
consumed, and nothing ever cleared it. The manager is a page chunk: it unmounts
on every navigation, and its seed effect runs again on each mount, so returning
to it re-applied a channel name from earlier in the session over whatever the
user had typed since. The consumed marker now lives in the provider, keyed on the
token — which also closes the case the old clear-on-leave effect never handled,
opening a channel page (that does not change `page` at all).

TagFilterChips + ChannelTags x2 — `open = openRaw && hidden > 0` hides the
overflow popover when the lane stops overflowing, but floating-ui only reports a
close for a real event on a mounted surface, so the raw flag stayed true and the
menu came back by itself on the next re-fit — a window resize or the text-size
slider is enough, with nobody near it. The flag is now reset in render against
the same condition that hides it.

Avatar + downloadRow — remembering a failed image BY URL fixed the recycled-row
frame but never forgot it, so a transient 429 pinned a channel to its initial for
the life of the instance, never re-requesting. The memory is now dropped once
`src` moves off it, which keeps both properties.

And playerModalHooks' last exhaustive-deps suppression claimed "nothing in the
body reads a render value" while reading five. The invariant that is actually
load-bearing is that each of them is a per-item snapshot — written down instead.

All four fixes are mutation-checked: each new test was seen red, against the
fixed line only, naming the real defect.

peter 7e1aeeb9fe refactor(frontend): honest effect deps in the app shell and the ui layer (E27 S2)
Burns the first 14 of the 113 hook suppressions. Three verdicts, applied per site:

A useEffect that should not exist (6):
- Avatar remembered "the image failed" as a boolean an effect reset on src change. The
  component is recycled across items in the virtualized feed, so after one avatar 429s the
  next item's slot committed the fallback initial over a perfectly good image and only the
  post-paint effect cleared it. The failure is now keyed BY URL; derived state cannot be stale.
- Combobox cleared the typed query from an effect on `open`. Moved into setOpenAnd, the single
  funnel every close goes through. That also stops a spurious onQueryChange("") AT MOUNT, which
  told a controlled caller its own initial query had been cleared before the user touched it.
- CommandPalette reset query + picked row from an effect. Closed now means UNMOUNTED, not
  hidden, so a fresh open starts blank because mounting already means that -- and the ranking
  memo over every channel, playlist and saved view stops running while the palette is shut.
- Pager's page box held a copy of the page that an effect re-synced; it now derives it and
  keeps a draft only while being edited.
- App's ?link= / ?oauth= / ?admin= one-shots asserted "once per mount" with an empty dep list.
  The ref guard the codebase already uses in 22 places ENFORCES it, so the honest deps can
  include `t` -- which a language switch legitimately changes, and which would otherwise have
  re-fired the toast.

Honest deps that also fix something (5):
- App's module preload was keyed on the account id, so a permission change that alters the
  module set without moving the id never re-preloaded. `preload()` is idempotent, so depending
  on `me` costs nothing.
- App's access-request nudge now re-issues on a language switch; it used to stay in the old
  language until the pending count changed.
- App's diagnostics effect: applyDiagnostics already no-ops on an unchanged effective level,
  so picking four fields out by hand was guarding nothing and missed any field added later.
- DataTable's two filter effects: a ref holds the latest onFiltersChange so commitFilters can
  be stable, which is what lets the effects name it instead of switching the check off.

Genuine escape hatches (7) moved OUT of eslint-suppressions.json into inline directives that
name the invariant at the site -- the toast handover's render-phase global, the live region's
deliberate arming tick, the docked one-slot component, the popover engine's floating-ui list
state, dnd-kit's per-drag `moved` flag, BackToTop's DOM read and the palette's debounced
announcement. A reader of the code now sees why; a JSON file no one opens does not.

Tests: Avatar (3, new file) and Pager (3) pin the derived-state frames with a layout-phase
probe -- layout effects run before any passive effect, so they read the frame the browser would
paint. Combobox (2) pins the close-clears-query contract and the no-callback-at-mount rule.
All three sets mutation-checked against the effect-based originals.

Suppressions 113 -> 99; exhaustive-deps 45 -> 35.

peter 7d682c90d5 build(frontend): React 18 -> 19 with the React Compiler (E27 S1)
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.

peter 3f983e6d76 fix(diagnostics): deep-review round 2 — a send that claims, not one that blocks
The send no longer holds the session's row lock while it talks to the tracker:
it claims the session, gives the lock back, and checkpoints each step. A Stop
is never held behind a send, while a draft, a screenshot or a second send are
refused at once instead of queueing. The claim ages out, so a request that
died mid-send does not strand the session.

What the composer says is what happened: an attachment that went is no longer
named as one that did not (the missing body edit is its own line), and the
issue's screenshot count comes from the server when the list cannot be read,
so a failed read no longer blocks saving the draft. The zip is fetched as a
request, so its pace is a message and not a saved error page. Screenshots of a
finished report can be removed again; only one still being sent is held.

A recording's log elevation can no longer outlive it. The step prompt keeps
the keyboard (the page's keys stay quiet) and traps Tab itself. An image
pasted into a dialog opened over the composer stays that dialog's.
2026-09-20 00:51:12 +02:00
peter 134ec9a68e fix(diagnostics): deep-review round 1 — a send that cannot race, lose or repeat itself
The send, the draft and the screenshots take the session's row lock, so an
autosave or a paste during a send waits for it and then sees it, and two sends
cannot open two issues. A save keeps the delivery's progress; a failed edit
that shows the screenshots is finished by the retry; an answer that is not the
tracker's API (a redirect, a proxy page) is refused, not a crash that loses the
issue's record. Only an attempt that opened an issue counts toward the pace.

Screenshots: deleting one after the send is refused, a user's storage is
capped across sessions, new sessions and zip exports are paced, images are
stored uncompressed in the zip. One liveness rule, one session view, one image
type table.

Logging: a session's elevation is tracked apart from the user's own, so the
browser's own requests (no header) no longer lower the floor a session needs;
Stop ends it at once.

Composer: an image pasted anywhere is taken; what is still unsaved is saved on
close, and "saved" is shown only when it is; the draft is held while it is
sent; a failed screenshot read says so instead of reading as none; focus moves
to what stays; the preview follows the text size. Pill: the step prompt and a
running Stop survive the pill moving between hosts, the prompt keeps the
dialog's Tab trap, the toast region lets clicks through, other tabs hear of a
Start or Stop, the last seconds are sent before the cap, a capture with no
frame is an error.

peter 9f177557d2 docs(ui): the toast dock in the primitives catalog 2026-09-19 22:08:21 +02:00
peter 2d9595b0e5 feat(ui): a control can dock under the toasts and ride every toast host
The toast stack already has a host in the page and in every overlay (dialogs,
both players, the fullscreen player), the topmost one shows it, and inside an
overlay it sits above the player's control band. lib/toastDock lets one control
use exactly that placement; it renders outside the live region, so a ticking
control is not read out every second.

peter cf0c55ba80 fix(a11y): names that carry what they show; the unused-key check stops covering whole files
- 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.

peter fa4f823fc8 fix(ui): Back finds the item again past the focus keeper; nested drags stay in their list
Deep review of the debt burn, each measured in Chrome:
- Back from a sub-view whose focused control the swap removed: the focus keeper put the focus on a
  stand-in (the returning list's first item) and `restoreNavPosition`, finding the focus "already
  somewhere", gave up — Plex show → Back landed on tile 0, not the tile it was opened from. A
  stand-in the keeper placed now counts as untouched, like <body>. The keeper's walk up also stops
  at its container: a slot left with nothing focusable no longer sends the focus to the first
  control of the whole document.
- DataTable enabled both layouts' keyboard lists with the same flag, and `useListNav` reads its ref
  only when the flag changes: after a resize across `md`, the layout that mounted was never
  registered (no j/k) and the one that left stayed registered. Each is enabled with its layout.
- A Plex playlist nests blocks and each show's episodes in one DndContext; closestCenter and the
  keyboard coordinates weighed every droppable, so a movie landed "over" an episode — announced as
  a place in the other list, dropped somewhere else or nowhere. `sameListCollision` and
  `sameListKeyboardCoordinates` keep a drag among its siblings; onDragEnd's episode → block
  resolution is gone with the case.
- dnd-kit reports the item over itself in the pick-up's own tick; announced, "moved to position 1"
  replaced "picked up … use the arrow keys" before a screen reader read it.

peter 30fbdc52b2 fix(ui): a focused, disabled FocusSafeButton no longer lights up on hover
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.
2026-09-19 18:14:18 +02:00
peter 0ef25a8037 feat(ui): the six native selects become the house controls
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.
2026-09-19 17:53:22 +02:00
peter 17a26894b0 fix(a11y): every sortable list speaks the user's language to a screen reader
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`.

peter dc902d2c0e test(fe): cover the palette's content, AltGr, the banner's name, share colours, playlist headers
- AppCommandPalette had no test: modules gated by the account, hidden channels left out, the
  playlist row selecting before it navigates, and the surprise riding setPage's `then`.
- keymap: an Alt/AltGr-modified key (Ctrl+Alt on Windows, a constant on the HU layout) fires no
  bare-key or Mod row.
- Banner: the dismiss button falls back to "Close" rather than going unnamed.
- ShareDialog: a protected link's lit lock and Revoke's danger colour stay on the icon.
- Both playlist headers are rendered now: the YouTube one needed the toolbar slot it portals into.
  Meta line sums known runtimes and treats an ABSENT duration as nothing (null never exercised the
  guard: `3000 + null` is 3000); a one-row list offers no view controls.
2026-09-19 17:23:55 +02:00
peter 444f9b8166 fix(ui): a control removed by its own action leaves the focus in its slot
The second half of the pending-button sweep: where the pressed control does
not merely disable but LEAVES the page — an invite row gone after Approve,
the inbox's Clear all gone with the last notification, a section gone once
its last row is handled — the browser dropped the focus to <body> and the
next Tab started over at the top.

useFocusKeeper, on the page scroller: when the element holding the focus is
removed and the focus fell to <body>, the first focusable thing in its slot
takes it (what followed, else what preceded, else the nearest ancestor still
on the page). Portaled layers (menus, dialogs) sit outside the scroller and
return focus themselves; listNav's keyboard lists are left alone — their `j`
already goes on from the slot, and a row scrolled out of a virtualized list
must not drag the focus after it.
2026-09-19 08:10:03 +02:00
peter 7a47223a58 fix(ui): no button drops the keyboard focus when its own action disables it
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.

peter bc138e3b37 fix(ui): a disabled menu row says why it is off, under its label
The reason for a disabled menu row lived in a `title` on a natively disabled
button: no pointer events, so no tooltip, and roving focus skips the row —
four translated sentences reached nobody (the Watch later rename/delete
lock, "no other list to move to", the reorder gate). An aria-disabled row was
tried and reverted in E10's review. ActionMenu items now take a `note`,
rendered as a muted line under a disabled row's label: seen, and readable in
a screen reader's browse mode. Only the icon and label dim — row-level
opacity would dim the explanation too. The reorder group states its reason
once, under its first row.

peter df7c3db085 test(ui): the px-box probe does not trip its own rule; tsc lib-safe last()
The pxBox contract test held the literal w-[150px] it probes, which the new
lint rule refuses, and stickyTop's test used Array.at, outside the tsconfig
lib. Both landed because a local lane check piped its exit code into tail.

peter 6fda49369f fix(ui): a sticky table header turns the scroller's top fade off itself; DataTable renders one layout
- "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.

peter 8018cd4685 fix(ui): the platform layer speaks platform words; boxes scale with the text
- 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 `;`.

peter 29875b7367 fix(ui): stable shelf-card menu triggers, a named Button by type, true layout comments
- Home's rail handed each card a fresh `() => menu.triggerProps(c)` per
  render, defeating memo(VideoCard) on every tile whenever the menu's own
  state changed. `useItemTriggers` (ui/useContextMenu) keeps one trigger per
  item, index-aligned; tested for identity across renders.
- The Button accessible-name union had one hole: `<Button icon={…} />` with
  no children and no size typechecked into a nameless button. A textful
  button now needs children or a name; pinned with @ts-expect-error.
- comfortPin's header said the pin belongs "on every card and row", which
  the code never meant (an episode, a season, a person are not pin kinds).
  It now says what is pinnable — and the show page's Related strip, whose
  shows ARE pinnable, gets the pin menu it was missing (and a rem width).
- gridColumns / feedView / VirtualGrid claimed layouts 1024–2560 are
  "byte-identical" under the column cap; the small cards are capped at 2560
  with the filter rail collapsed. The comments say so.

peter 2fa5c8c394 fix(ui): nothing past the right edge of a phone
The Feed's chips + Sort + View row did not fit one line at 375px and pushed
the page 21px wide; the toast stack capped its width by the viewport while
it sits right of the sidebar. The toolbar rows (Feed, Plex browse) wrap,
and the toasts are capped by their host.

peter 9c9b1cf6d5 test: the gate's output carries no noise to hide a real warning in
- Home tests mocked the api without downloadIndex, so every card's download button logged a
  missing-queryFn error (64 stderr blocks per run).
- QueryState rendered without an i18n instance; Modal.fullscreen awaited a synchronous act,
  which React reports as an act environment it does not support.
- pytest: Starlette 1.x's TestClient is built on httpx2 and warned on every run without it
  (pinned in requirements-dev); alembic.ini declares its path separator.

peter c3d88d9b20 refactor: component files export only components; lint fails on a warning
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.

peter 569190480d refactor: hook dependencies name everything the hooks read
The 12 react-hooks/exhaustive-deps warnings the gate let through:
- ShareDialog and YearFilter built a fresh [] per render while their query loaded, so their
  memos recomputed on every render; they share one empty list now.
- VideoEditor's drag effect called a seek/moveBoundary recreated each render; both are stable
  callbacks in its deps.
- WizardProvider re-checks onboarding on exactly the fields it reads (not the me object, whose
  60 s refetch would reopen a closed wizard).
- Channels, Feed and PlexPlayer list the stable values they already used.
- The player's keydown effect is bound once on purpose (its helpers read refs): said so, with a
  disable, as the codebase's other deliberate sites do.
- dialogFocus and the YouTube player's cleanup read refs React may already have let go of; they
  use what they captured when the effect ran.

peter 5883ea509d feat: Settings → Diagnostics, a consented log level and the tab's own log
A user can raise their diagnostics level to Részletes (DEBUG) or Teljes (TRACE) for 24 hours from a
new Settings tab, after a consent box that says what is recorded, that the server keeps it and for
how long (the instance's own retention), and that it lapses. Alap is the base and needs no consent.

- users.diagnostics_level/_until (migration 0087), written only by PUT /api/me/diagnostics, which
  computes the expiry itself; the demo account cannot raise it. /api/me reports the level in force.
- The server logs an elevated user's requests at that level and stores every line of them
  (logs.LevelGate on the stdout handler and the sink; the root is lowered only while an elevation
  is active). Teljes adds the redacted query string to the request line.
- POST /api/diagnostics/events stores the browser's log as source=web rows: account from the
  session, body capped while streaming, events/attrs capped, re-redacted, events under the
  consented level dropped, timestamps clamped, 30 batches a minute, 409 once the level lapsed.
- lib/diagnostics.ts applies the level to the tab and streams only what happens after consent, in
  batches, never its own request lines, with a keepalive flush on pagehide; stops on lapse (its
  own timer), on withdrawal and on 409.
- Detail hooks at DEBUG: which control was clicked (test id, icon, app copy in English — never user
  text, input values or a link's query), visibility/bfcache/resize, filter changes
  (lib/filterLog.ts; typed search only at TRACE), player events (lib/mediaLog.ts; media errors are
  warnings at every level). Offline/online at the base level.
- "Saját napló" viewer: live, newest first, level groups with counts, search, row details, copy
  the filtered events as JSON lines, clear.
- Privacy policy and Terms exist in Hungarian and English (a contract test holds both languages to
  the same sections); the policy now describes the server logs and diagnostic logging, self-service
  deletion and password sign-in.

Fixed on the way:
- A sync auth dependency ran logs.set_user on a copied context, so the account never reached a
  handler's own log lines (measured); a per-request mutable scope carries it now.
- The Settings tab rail left a phone no room (clipped labels, buttons over text): below `sm` it is
  a scrolling row above the content.
- PUT /api/me/preferences took a bare dict body; it is a Pydantic model now.
2026-09-17 02:42:12 +02:00
peter 07766c43e8 feat: closed-set admin knobs are pickers, not free text
log_level, search_source, download_layout and the transcode hw/preset
were typed by hand, and every consumer carried its own guess at what a
typo meant. The value set is now a Literal in config.py: pydantic
rejects a bad env value at boot (any letter case accepted), sysconfig
refuses a bad override and derives the admin picker's options from the
same Literal, and the consumers read the value as-is.

The Configuration page renders a choice key as a segmented bar, or a
dropdown past six options, with translated option names. Its tabs now
follow the registry's order instead of a hand-kept copy that had
already dropped the explore group.

A single-choice FilterSelect now opens on the option in use: in the
browser it could land on the first row instead.
2026-09-17 00:03:56 +02:00
peter a5bcd9fca2 fix: numbers follow the UI language, not the browser's
`n.toLocaleString()` groups in the BROWSER's locale, so an English UI in a
Hungarian browser printed "1 234 567" while a Hungarian UI in an English
browser printed "1,234,567" — the number half of the date defect fixed in
618ef812. One `formatNumber` in lib/format.ts (a per-language cached
Intl.NumberFormat, like the relative-time formatters beside it) now serves
every grouped figure: Stats, Scheduler, the channel columns and the stats
popover, VideoCard's view tooltip, the ItemCount pill, and formatTotalHours.

ReleaseNotes' `toLocaleDateString(undefined, …)` was the one DATE site the
previous sweep missed; it moves onto formatDate.

The new cases assert both languages and that the two differ, instead of
comparing against the runtime's own default: that default is Hungarian on the
dev box and English on a CI image, so a one-language assertion would pass
under the old bug on half the machines. Verified in Chromium on :5173 with the
browser forced to hu-HU and the UI in English — Stats, Scheduler and the
channel table all keep comma grouping.
2026-09-16 01:05:53 +02:00
peter f569b19c49 fix: review round 2 — a signed-out tab acts as nobody, honest share-page failures
Deep-review round 2 over main..improvement/watch-background-audio.

Account resolution (server)
- A request naming an account that is no longer signed in to this browser
  (X-Siftlode-Account or ?account=) now acts as nobody instead of the
  session's default account. A tab still pinned to an account signed out in
  another tab went on acting as the default: its player checkpoints and
  preference saves landed in that account, the messages socket and Plex
  playback ran as it, and its Sign out signed THAT account out. A hidden tab
  never polls /api/me, so a tab playing in the background kept doing it.
  The /api/me bootstrap probe alone keeps the fallback, which is how such a
  tab learns who it now is: the app's 401 handler reloads, and BootGate
  re-pins the tab.

BootGate
- On an identity change the tab reloads without moving its pin first. The
  tree being torn down still runs its unmount saves before the page goes,
  and with the pin already moved they wrote into the new account's local
  keys (a player volume still pending). The reloaded page corrects the pin.

Share page (/watch)
- Only a 404 says the link is gone. A 5xx, a dropped connection, and the
  unlock's own rate limit all rendered "no longer available ... expired or
  revoked" to a viewer with a valid link, with no way to try again. A load
  failure now offers Retry; too many password tries says so and keeps the
  form; an unlock that gets no answer says so instead of doing nothing.
  Strings in en/hu/de.

Downloads
- A cookie-authed asset is recognised under the current signature version
  and the one before it, so a job queued before a deploy that bumps the
  version still downloads with its cookie instead of failing on the login
  wall with an error that says no cookie was used.

The app chunk is preloaded through lazyWithPreload, so a failed fetch no
longer leaves an unhandled rejection beside the ErrorBoundary. The panel
layout seed is one helper (seedLayout).

Tests: the stale-tab refusal, its harmless Sign out and the probe fallback;
the pre-bump authed asset; BootGate keeping the pin on reload and staying
mounted through a same-account change; the reveal clock's later-commit
hand-off; the prefs, panel layout and demo-scope seeds from the me cache;
the share page's failure states. Each mutation-checked RED for its own
reason.
2026-09-15 01:35:25 +02:00
peter e795d191c5 fix(boot): review round 1 — reconcile the tab pin, one loading clock, honest probe failures
Deep-review round 1 over main..improvement/watch-background-audio.

BootGate
- The tab's account pin is corrected to the account the server answered as.
  The server honours the pin only for an account still signed in to this
  browser and otherwise answers as the default, so a tab pinned to an account
  signed out in another tab ran as the default on the server while reading
  and writing the gone account's local state.
- A mounted tab whose identity changes (its session ended, or the case above)
  reloads instead of rebuilding the tree in place, like every account switch;
  that also drops the previous account's query cache. The account key on the
  tree goes: the readyFor gate already unmounted it on every change.
- An unanswered setup probe shows the error with Retry, like an unanswered
  account probe, instead of the signed-out landing to a signed-in user.
- Comments: /api/me never 401s; the ended-session path is identity → nobody.

Loading states
- LoadingState's reveal delay is one clock across loading states that hand
  over to each other (boot screen → page-chunk fallback → the page's own
  fetching state), instead of a CSS delay restarted by each, which blanked a
  visible spinner for another 300 ms at every hand-off. BootScreen is now the
  shared loading visual, full screen, counting from navigation start.

Plex shared link
- Persists only the dimensions the link carries again. Writing the default
  filters for an omitted `pf` created the stored-filters key, which is what
  tells SavedViewsProvider the account picked filters, so the account's
  default Plex saved view was never applied again.

Watch page
- The Repeat toggle uses the shared pressed-pill paint (a solid fill when on)
  instead of Button variants that differ only in colour, and its flag goes
  through storage.ts readJSON/writeJSON.
- The actions wrap under the title when the row is too narrow, instead of
  squeezing the title into a column a word wide on a phone; the title breaks
  long words.

Comments that still justified code by the removed adopt effects (usePref,
PrefsProvider, FeedViewProvider) are rewritten against the seed-once model.

Tests: BootGate error/retry for both probes, setup mode, a failed background
refetch keeping the app, the pin correction and the reload on an identity
change; the shared reveal clock; the Plex link persist; the audio signature
actually moved off version 4; a video download (av and v) still remuxed to
an mp4. Each mutation-checked RED for its own reason.
2026-09-15 00:53:15 +02:00
peter 5346efcd10 fix(boot): a new tab knows its account before anything renders
With Settings -> Appearance -> Startup turned off, every NEW tab or window still
opened on Home; only a same-tab reload honoured it. The provider tree mounted
before /api/me answered, so NavigationProvider's initializer could not read the
per-account opt-out, landed on Home and mirrored ?page=home into the address bar.
When App pinned the account a moment later, the re-hydrate re-read that mirror
and stayed on Home. The same mount-then-patch shape made a new tab start on
default filters, the default theme and the browser language, and correct each
after the first paint.

BootGate (main.tsx, above the providers) now owns the setup-status and /api/me
queries and mounts the tree only once the identity is settled: it pins the tab's
account and adopts the account's language in a layout effect, so the first frame
of the app is already right. The tree is keyed on the account id, which makes
"per-account state is read once, for this account" a structural guarantee.

With that, the whole re-hydrate machinery is gone: useAccountRehydrate, the
reactive active-account store, the markDirty guards, the pin-deferred saved-view
seed and the present-dimension bookkeeping of the shared Channels/Plex links.
PrefsProvider, FeedFiltersProvider, usePref and App's panel layouts seed from the
me cache instead of adopting it in an effect; the theme is applied in layout
effects. The app chunk is fetched in parallel with the probe, and the boot screen
only fades its label in after 400 ms, on one clock across the gate and the
Suspense fallback.

Module switches no longer flash a placeholder either. Measured frame by frame
in Chromium and WebKit, every first visit to a module showed "Loading..." for
17-70 ms: the lazy chunk's Suspense fallback, then often the first fetch's
LoadingState. Pages are now lazyWithPreload components, and App fetches the
chunks of every module the account can reach (plus the channel page) once the
first page is idle; a preloaded page renders synchronously and never suspends.
LoadingState, the one shared loading visual, fades in only after 300 ms, so a
fast load shows nothing in between and a slow one still gets its spinner.

peter c6b552e75f fix(keys): epic-end review round 3 — the part-way clip count shows, busy buttons keep focus, cards say their names
Targeted round over 3cd0c525's fix surfaces: 14 raised, 14 fixed.

- VideoEditor: the "only X of Y clips" toast went silent exactly on the job-cap/quota refusal it was
  written for (req had already reported the error); it now always shows. The cut list holds still while
  Create queues, and a retry continues the "(i/N)" series.
- ChannelPage: Subscribe/Unsubscribe use Button `loading`, "Load more" and ChannelDiscovery's Subscribe
  block the click with aria-disabled instead of native disabled; busy Block/Hide no longer light up on
  hover.
- listNav: an item can name itself (`navItemAttrs(i, name)`) — Plex posters, seasons, episodes, message
  rows and download rows pass their title; focus on a toast's Undo keeps the removed card's slot.
- AnchoredPopover: the hand-back only for focus-managed surfaces (a hover card no longer pulls focus
  back); the dead panel-ref check is gone.
- AccountPanel: no confirmation mail offered to the demo account; send_failed copy no longer blames
  the message for an unreachable server. Pager comment points at scrollParent.

peter 3cd0c525e2 fix(keys): epic-end review round 2 — focus comes back to the card, the right rail and the reason
Whole-epic deep-review of E11 (18 raised, 12 kept; B and G refuted, four latent test-hardening notes dropped),
plus the admin refusal copy gap round 1 surfaced.

- A context menu opened from a card the keyboard is on gives the focus back to the card. floating-ui returns
  focus through the opener's first tabbable descendant even when handed a ref, so for a non-tabbable opener the
  surface restores it itself (measured in Chrome: j, Shift+F10, Escape left it on the thumbnail link).
- Back finds a named list (a rail) by its name: a rail that appeared above it after the cache expired sent the
  focus into the wrong rail. An unnamed list is matched only when the page has the same number of lists.
- The slot kept for a removed item is forgotten once focus moves on to page content (search, a chip), so j after
  new results starts at the first visible item; a menu or dialog opened from the item keeps it.
- The list keys reach the cheat sheet only while a list has an item.
- A j-focused card root is a named group while it holds the focus.
- The channel page's Block and Hide toggles keep the focus while their request runs.
- A split export that fails part-way says how many clips were added and deselects them, so a retry adds only
  the rest.
- Config save, the one-click share link and "log out other sessions" report failures with their reason.
- VirtualGrid uses the one scroll-parent walk listNav measures against.
- Admin refusals (activate, resend, invite, set-password link) say why in HU and EN instead of "try again";
  the email-off special cases collapse into that one reason. The contract reads the codes from localizeDetail.
  HU copy points to Konfiguráció → E-mail / SMTP; HU "unreachable" matches the EN change of round 1.
2026-09-13 19:18:04 +02:00
peter f130a1c05a fix(keys): epic-end review round 1 — Back, menus and dialogs keep the focus where it belongs
Deep-review of E11 (19 raised, 14 confirmed; 2 refuted, 3 latent test-hardening notes dropped).

- Back from a sub-view (a Plex show page, a Messages thread) restores the item it was opened from
  even when focus was still inside the view: the first attempt now waits one task, past the
  sub-view's own popstate listener (measured in Chrome: it left focus on <body>).
- The restore listener is installed at load, so the first Back after a reload finds it; a push
  cancels a restore still waiting for the last landing's lists.
- Navigating over an overlay asks it again, a render apart, while its entry stays: the Plex
  player peels one panel per Back step, so Shift+W over info + stats closed one panel and dropped
  the navigation.
- j/k: a native <button> item keeps its own Tab stop; landing twice on the same item no longer
  leaks its tabindex; after the focused item is removed (a hidden card) the next j goes on from
  its slot when that slot is on screen.
- An abandoned `g` no longer swallows a modifier chord (g, then Mod+K opened the browser search).
- A hover card above a dialog no longer switches its Tab trap off (player, Modal, wizard,
  Lightbox): new layerStack `anyBlockingLayerAbove`.
- "Manage views…" closes its menu before opening the dialog, through a shared `closeThenAct`
  that ActionMenu now uses too.
- Copy: the EN welcome says "Feed"; the EN unreachable reason no longer claims a change;
  stale comments about PlayerModal's scroll lock and dialog contract.

peter 8731508645 feat(keys): the conversation list walks with j/k; the cheat sheet names keys in the reader's language
E11 S5 — the HU/EN sweep and the keyboard-only pass over every module.

- The keyboard cheat sheet printed "Space" and "Menu" on a Hungarian sheet: a keycap that carries a
  WORD (not a legend every layout prints alike, like Esc, Ctrl or Enter) is now named by the caller in
  the reader's language (`formatChord(chord, words)`, `keys.cap.*`: Szóköz / Menü).
- The Plex player's ⌫/Esc line said "Stop & back to feed", but the player goes back to wherever it
  was opened from (Home, a Plex page): "Stop & go back" / "Leállítás és vissza".
- Messages: the conversation list is a keyboard list (NavGrid + navItemAttrs, the name button is the
  open element; the pop-out button keeps its own Enter). D1 covers every list whose rows open one
  thing; this one was missed in S4. Notification cards have no single open action and stay out, like
  the download queue.

Sweep, measured: every static `t("…")` key used in the source exists in both languages (the only
misses are template prefixes); the HU values equal to EN are proper nouns and loanwords (Admin, Plex,
Trakt, Shorts). Palette in Hungarian: "téma" makes "Téma: Midnight" the active row ahead of the channel
"Topik - mindig témában", live region "7 találat".

Keyboard-only pass in Chrome, Hungarian UI — 1024×768: every `g` chord lands on its module, `j` rings
the first item (solid 2px accent) on Home, Feed, Channels, Playlists, Plex and Downloads, `s` focuses
the search on Feed, Channels, Playlists and Plex, no page scrolls sideways. 3440×1440: `j` → → ↓
walks Home, Feed (8 columns: 0 → 1 → 9), Channels, Playlists, Plex and Downloads, no sideways scroll.
The help sheet lists every line translated; inside the Plex player "Szóköz / K" and "⌫ / Esc
Leállítás és vissza". Messages: a real `j` rings the row, Enter opens the thread.
2026-09-13 07:00:51 +02:00
peter b5d37ca142 feat(keys): j/k and the arrows walk the channel, playlist and download lists
Third and last slice of the E11 keyboard layer (S4c). S4a/S4b covered every card grid and rail; the
table-shaped pages — the channel manager, a playlist, the download center — were still Tab-stop
country: a channel row carries a priority stepper, four action buttons and a tag picker before the next
row's name.

- `ui/DataTable keyboardNav`: the rows are the items, Enter clicks the element a column marks
  `data-nav-open`. DataTable renders its rows twice (a table, and a card list below `md`); both register
  and `lib/listNav` now walks only lists on screen (`checkVisibility`), so `j` past the last row never
  carries on into the hidden copy.
- `lib/listNav` leaves a key something before it already handled (`defaultPrevented`): during a keyboard
  drag a playlist row's grip moves the row with the arrows, and dnd-kit takes the key on the document
  before listNav's window listener. Without the guard ↓ moved the focus off the grip and dropped the drag.
- `ui/NavGrid as="tbody"` for a table whose body is the list (the playlist, under dnd-kit's
  SortableContext).
- Wired: Subscriptions and Discovery tables, the card layout (`ChannelLayoutGrid` → VirtualGrid
  `keyboardNav`), Hidden/Blocked cards (the ChannelLink name is a channel's open element); a playlist's
  rows (the title plays; the grip keeps Space/Enter); the download queue, library and shared lists (the
  play button opens, `IconBtn open`; a row without one opens nothing).
- `listNav.wiring.contract.test`: `VirtualGrid` and `DataTable` must say `keyboardNav` like `Carousel`,
  `DownloadRow` is a card; the audit log's table is the one exemption (its rows open nothing), and an
  exemption that no longer matches a tag fails the test.

Measured in Chrome: Channels table j → row, ring round the whole row; a row walked down keeps 12px above
the viewport edge, walked up clears the sticky header by 35px; Enter opens the channel. Cards 3 columns:
→ 0→1, ↓ 1→4. Hidden and Discovery: j + Enter open the channel. Playlist: j + Enter plays, Escape returns
focus to the row; a keyboard drag (Enter on the grip, ↓) moves the row with focus kept on the grip, and
Escape cancels with the order unchanged. Downloads library: Enter plays a video row, does nothing on a
plain file row.
2026-09-13 06:08:05 +02:00
peter 6d09b94bbb feat(keys): j/k and the arrows walk Home's rails and every Plex grid and rail
Second slice of the E11 keyboard layer (S4b). S4a gave the feed, the library and the channel page
`j`/`k`, the arrows and Enter; Home's shelves and the whole Plex module were still Tab-stop country —
a Plex poster is its own Tab stop, and a rail's cards sat behind every control of the cards before.

- `lib/listNav`: a list that mounts every item no longer declares a count or columns — both are
  measured off the DOM when a key is pressed, so an auto-fill grid's columns follow its width and a
  rail is one row. ↑ on a list's top row and ↓ on its bottom row go on to the neighbouring list, onto
  the item horizontally nearest the one left (owner decision D4: ←→ within a rail, ↑↓ to the rail
  above or below). The first `j` skips cards a rail has scrolled out to the left.
- `Carousel keyboardNav` registers the scroller; the scroller gets a 4px inset (against a -4px margin,
  layout unchanged) so the focus ring is not clipped, and `[data-nav-index]` a 2.5rem inline scroll
  margin so a card stepped into view clears the rail's edge fade and paging arrow.
- `ui/NavGrid`: the plain, fully mounted grid that registers itself.
- `navIndex` on PlexPosterCard / SeasonCard / EpisodeCard (the card root is the item, the poster the
  open element — the ring goes round poster and title, D2), PosterTile and Home's ShelfTile (the button
  is the item); cast, related and collection-strip buttons carry the attrs directly.
- Wired: Home's comfort and resume rails; Plex Browse titles + episodes, Discover rails + genres,
  collection view, playlists/collections browse, person known-for + filmography, show seasons, season
  episodes, cast/related strips, info-page cast + collection strips.
- `listNav.wiring.contract.test`: every `Carousel` says `keyboardNav`, every card says `navIndex`, and a
  card with `navIndex` sits inside a NavGrid / Carousel / VirtualGrid — both halves are opt-in, and
  either one missing leaves a list the keyboard silently skips.
2026-09-13 05:38:36 +02:00
peter 5274216981 feat(ui): PageUp/PageDown page through every dropdown list, not just the palette
The palette got PageUp/PageDown, and the same crawl stayed everywhere else a list opens under a
control: the sidebar's channel filter, the Plex genre/studio/collection pickers, the filter and sort
menus, submenus of every playlist you own. floating-ui's list navigation has only the arrows and
Home/End.

- `lib/listPaging`: the one definition of a page (the rows wholly in view minus one, a fixed 10 with
  no layout) and of where it lands (stops at both ends, never on a row it may not take, looking back
  toward the start rather than past it). The palette now uses it instead of its own copy, and
  `listNav` takes its scroll-parent helper from here.
- `AnchoredPopover`: one keydown handler on the reference AND the surface, so a combobox (keys on its
  input, `aria-activedescendant`) and a roving menu (keys on the focused row) both page. It runs after
  floating-ui's own, which has by then switched to keyboard modality and scrolls the new row in. A
  disabled row is never the target; a submenu's key does not also page the menu around it; with no
  mounted rows (closed, a hover card, a dialog) the key keeps its native meaning.

Measured in the browser: the channel filter shows 8 rows and pages by 7 with the active row in view
after the scroll; a menu pages to its last row and back, the page behind it does not scroll; the
palette still pages by 11 of its 12 visible rows.

peter 75d89613d0 feat(palette): PageUp/PageDown move a page of results at a time
The jump-to palette lists every module, channel, playlist, view and action — 461 rows on the
owner's account, ~11 of them in view — and the arrows were the only way through it: forty presses to
cross the channel group.

- PageDown/PageUp step by the rows that fit in the list right now, minus one, so the row you paged
  from stays in sight at the new page's edge. Measured per press (the list is 50vh and group headings
  eat into it); a fixed 10 when there is no layout to measure.
- Unlike the arrows they stop at the ends instead of wrapping: a page-sized jump that lands back at
  the top reads as having lost your place.
- Home/End stay the text field's own.

Measured in the browser: 0 → 10 → 20 rows, stops on row 461, PageUp from the end steps 9 (a group
heading is in view), the selected row stays visible throughout.

peter 8fb276aa90 feat(keys): j/k walk the feed, s finds the search box, g jumps to a module
A feed card cost ~10 Tab stops, so the tenth card sat ~135 Tabs from the top of the page, and the
only keyboard focus ring (a 60% accent outline on the thumbnail) all but vanished on the dark glass.
First slice of the E11 keyboard layer (S4a); Home, Plex and the tables follow in S4b/S4c.

- `lib/listNav`: one window listener over every registered list, walked in document order. `j`/`k`
  step item to item (on into the next list — owner decision D4), the arrows move around a grid, Enter
  clicks the item's own `data-nav-open` element, so it opens exactly like a click. An item root is
  never a Tab stop: it gets `tabindex=-1` only while the keyboard is on it, and keeps it until the next
  item takes it, so the player's focus restore lands back on the card. The first `j` takes the first
  card you can see, not the top of the list.
- `VirtualGrid` takes part with `keyboardNav` (column count + scrolling an unmounted row in);
  `VirtualFeed` turns it on, so the feed, the library and the channel page all have it.
- Keymap: two-step sequences (`g h`) whose pending step belongs to the scope that started it; the
  page-level scopes (`page`, `search`, `list`) are quiet while a layer that owns the keyboard is open,
  enforced in `dispatch`. A test pins the owner's rule that none of them needs a modifier on the
  Hungarian layout.
- `g h/f/c/p/x/n/m/d/s/,` jump to a module this account can reach; `s` focuses the header search box
  and selects the old query; Escape in it hands the keyboard back to the page (Plex's typeahead spends
  its first Escape on its panel).
- Hover popovers are passive layers: an open tooltip still takes Escape first but no longer silences
  the page keys.
- Focus ring (owner decision D2 = B): solid 2px accent around the whole item; the app-wide button/
  link/row ring goes from 60% to solid too. The item keeps a transparent resting outline because the
  video card transitions `all` — without it every `j` flashed a 3px white ring (measured in Chrome).
- Help sheet: the new keys, in a fixed order after the surface's own; a `g` chord only for a reachable
  module; opened over a player or dialog it leaves out the page-level keys and the context-menu key,
  which nothing can reach there (the latter pre-existing since E10).
- CLAUDE.md: a canonical-patterns row for list/grid keys (`useListNav` + `navItemAttrs` +
  `data-nav-open`, not a private arrow-key handler).

peter 78a9324381 fix(ui): the palette ranks what you typed, and lib stops leaning on components
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`.

peter b4aea7fa5b fix(ui): dialogs, menus and busy buttons keep the keyboard focus where it belongs
Measured in Chrome before each change:

- A dialog opened from a menu lost its focus: the menu row ran its action
  and closed in one batch, and floating-ui's focus return (a microtask)
  moved the focus to the row BEHIND the confirm dialog's scrim 7 ms after
  it opened, where Enter activated the row. MenuItemList now closes first
  and runs the action a task later; the dialog also captures the row, not
  a dying menu item, as its restore target.
- A side panel opened as a flyout collapsed the moment a dialog opened
  from inside it, unmounting the row the dialog hands the focus back to.
  useHoverFocusWithin holds while the focus is inside an aria-modal dialog.
- ui/Button's loading state set native disabled; Chrome moved the focus of
  the pressed button to <body> and never gave it back. Loading is now
  aria-disabled with a click guard that also cancels implicit submission.
- Escape/Enter in the playlist rail's rename field dropped the focus on
  <body>. The row refocuses from its ref callback when it re-attaches (a
  post-commit focus sticks; the earlier attempt ran before the button
  existed).
- PlayerModal was the one aria-modal shell without the dialog contract:
  it is now named by its title, traps Tab, restores the focus to its
  opener and shares one counted body scroll lock with every dialog.

peter 92c305bab9 fix(nav): a navigation closes every overlay before it pushes
The overlay history stack let a navigation land ABOVE open overlays and
"buried" their entries with a counter. Measured in Chrome: Shift+W over
About navigated under the still-open dialog, the next Back both undid the
navigation and closed About, and the Back after that did nothing; Shift+W
on Home with the player open did nothing at all. The counter could also be
spent by a different overlay closing first, and callers that could not
report whether they pushed were assumed to have.

setPage and openChannel now close every open overlay and push only once
the history is back in sync (one entry per live overlay, no programmatic
back() in flight, no reconcile queued), so nothing is ever buried and the
whole mechanism goes: navigateOverOverlays, closeThenNavigate, buryUnder,
setPage's boolean, and the three test files that pinned them. The palette
closes only itself before running a row, so a theme picked over the player
keeps the player. Shift+W on Home with the player open now closes it
(owner decision 2026-09-09).

The wait is on state, not on "a popstate": the old 250 ms fallback could
run with back()s still in flight. An overlay that refuses to close within
1.5 s drops the command instead of being navigated out from under.

peter c7a377396b fix(ui): a closing dialog leaves the focus to the dialog standing above it
Round 6 widened dialog focus ownership to count focus inside ANY `aria-modal` subtree as ours, so a
dialog and the dialog stacked on it closing together would still hand the focus back. That clause has
no way to tell a layer closing WITH us from one that stays open, so a dialog closing on its own — an
in-flight mutation's `onSuccess`, not a click, since a scrim covers it — under a modal raised above it
pulled the focus onto its own pre-open trigger, behind that scrim, where Enter still activated it.
Three verifiers confirmed the mechanism and two corrected the severity down: it self-heals on the
next Tab, which is why this is a containment violation rather than a broken end state.

`lib/layerStack` cannot refine it. Measured against the real hook: at the instant the lower dialog's
focus cleanup runs, the both-closing case and the sibling-stays-open case give identical readings —
`anyLayerAbove` true, the upper layer topmost — because passive cleanups run parent-first and
`useDialogChrome` is declared before the effect that calls `removeLayer`. Gating on the stack turns
round 6's own test red. What separates them is the DOM: React detaches a deleted subtree before
passive cleanups, so a layer closing with us is already disconnected while one that stays open is
not. Both tests are green, and each was mutation-checked against the other.

Verified in Chrome on localdev: opening the cheat sheet from a sidebar button and closing it restores
that button; with the command palette stacked over the cheat sheet, closing the top one leaves the
focus neither on the background trigger nor on <body>, and closing both returns it to the trigger.

Welcome's Lightbox got the trap and the restore in round 6 but not the layer membership the other
shells have, so its Escape and Tab fired from a raw window listener whatever was on top — the shape
the wizard's comment records being bitten by, unreachable today only by a mount ordering nothing
enforces. It joins the stack. Its comment also read as though the four-shell sweep were finished:
`PlayerModal` is still an `aria-modal` surface with no name, no trap and no restore, which is on
ROADMAP.md now rather than implied to be done.

peter f8a31d48cf fix(ui): a dialog keeps the focus it was given, and hands it back where it took it from
Round 5 extracted `ui/dialogFocus` so no shell would hand-roll the focus
contract, then introduced four ways to lose the focus anyway — all four measured
in jsdom against the real components.

**Ownership was narrower than the trap.** `ui/Modal` traps Tab over the whole
dialog on purpose, so a toast's Undo or ✕ stays reachable; ownership was tracked
over the panel alone. Tabbing to that ✕ therefore read as "the user left the
dialog", and since removing a toast fires no `focusin` to re-arm, closing
afterwards skipped the restore and left the focus on <body>. Before this hook
existed the restore was unconditional, so it was a regression.

**A dialog stacked above us is still ours.** A nested `ui/Modal` portals into its
own host, so it is outside the outer dialog's root however wide that scope is
drawn — widening alone could not fix it. Both closing in one commit left the
focus on <body>: the outer skipped its restore, and the child's own target (a
control inside the outer panel) was already detached, because passive cleanups
run parent-first. Ownership now means "inside my dialog, or inside a modal layer
above it", which is what the rule always intended.

**The wizard disagreed with `ui/Modal` on its first line.** `trapTab(e, panel)`,
with neither the dialog-root scope (so its own toast host was outside the cycle
— the connection notice never auto-dismisses, and its ✕ was unreachable from the
keyboard) nor the `container` argument the JSDoc exists for: `panel.contains(
panel)` is true, so focus sitting ON the tabIndex=-1 panel matched no branch and
a Shift+Tab walked into the app behind the scrim. Both call sites now pass the
same three arguments.

**The toast handover was a render-phase read-modify-write.** A `useMemo` read a
module global that the next line overwrote; React re-invokes a component body
and every `useMemo` factory in it on a StrictMode double render, and the LAST
invocation commits — so the second pass re-read what the first had just written,
the takeover host classified its OWN new toast as inherited, and the dev build
behaved exactly like the code round 5 replaced. Snapshotted through a ref keyed
on `isTop`, so a repeated invocation of one render is a no-op.

And the fourth `aria-modal` shell, `Welcome`'s screenshot lightbox, is finally
swept into the same contract: it declared itself a modal dialog while leaving
the focus on the thumbnail behind an 80%-black scrim and letting Tab walk the
landing page underneath.

The headline fix of the previous commit — StrictMode's re-mount taking the focus
off an `autoFocus` field — had no test at all; deleting it left all 1009 green.
It has one now.

9 tests, mutation-checked against 8 mutations, each red on the test that names it.

peter 1f81684b6e fix(ui,plex): a dialog keeps the focus its child asked for, and a hopeless segment fails at once
Both found by UAT in a real browser, after the tests for them were already green — which is the
whole reason this repo settles focus and timing claims by running them.

- **The autoFocus fix worked, and then the dialog took the focus back.** React 18's StrictMode runs
  every effect mount→cleanup→mount in development: the cleanup handed focus back to the trigger, and
  the second mount, finding the focus outside the dialog, moved it to the first focusable — off the
  `autoFocus` field a beat after the browser had put it there. Chrome measured it: INPUT (commitMount)
  → BODY (cleanup) → ✕ (re-mount). The effect is idempotent now — it remembers what the dialog was
  focused on and restores THAT on a re-mount — and the close-time restore is conditional on the
  dialog still holding the focus, which it tracks as it changes rather than computing at cleanup,
  where the panel is already out of the document. A dialog no longer yanks focus back from wherever
  the user has since moved it.

- **Passing ffmpeg's handle to the segment wait only shortened the FINISHED case.** Measured against
  the running localdev API: a request for `seg_99999.ts` on a live session still took 20 195 ms,
  because that ffmpeg has not exited and the wait has no other reason to stop. ffmpeg writes segments
  in order, so a segment whose predecessor does not exist is not the next one and cannot arrive —
  and that is knowable at once. Same request now: 45 ms.

Verified on localdev against the real library (Westworld S01E06, remux, multi-audio): Mod+K opens the
command palette with the focus in its search field and typing reaches it; playback runs on the new
session-scoped HLS URL; a request naming a stale session id is a 404; and a viewer paused for longer
than the finished-session rule keeps their 2.4 GB session across two reaper passes — the progress
checkpoint touches it — and resumes cleanly.

peter 41b652f8fd fix(ui): a dialog opens focused where it said it would, and the wizard is a dialog
Deep-review round 5, over round 4's own fixes.

- Round 4 gave `ui/Modal` a persistent portal host so a fullscreen transition would stop tearing
  the dialog down. The host was attached in a `useLayoutEffect` — one commit phase AFTER React
  runs `autoFocus` in `commitMount`, and `focus()` on a disconnected node is a no-op. Every
  autoFocus in every dialog was dead: Mod+K opened the command palette with the focus on the ✕,
  so typing searched nothing and Enter closed it; the same for the download rename field and
  every non-danger confirm. The host is attached in a `useInsertionEffect` now, a whole phase
  earlier, and the whole re-parent — including the focus save/restore across the move, which
  `appendChild` needs because it is remove-then-insert — lives in one `useFullscreenPortalHost`.
  `ui/AnchoredPopover` had a second copy of that re-parent WITHOUT the focus restore, and a
  comment claiming focus survived it; both now come from the hook.

- `ui/Toaster` classified a toast raised in the SAME commit as a host takeover among the ones it
  inherits, because it read the store live at the takeover render. A dialog that notifies and
  closes in one handler (UploadDialog) therefore put its toast up with no role, into a region
  still `aria-live="off"` — announced by neither path. "Inherited" is now what the outgoing host
  last had on screen, and a toast that is NOT inherited is announced even inside the unarmed
  window.

- The onboarding wizard renders its own shell, and Escape ordering was all of the dialog contract
  it had: no role, no label, no initial focus, no trap, no restore. A keyboard user tabbed out of
  the first-login wizard into the app behind the scrim. The focus half of the contract is now one
  shared `ui/dialogFocus` that both `ui/Modal` and the wizard use.

Every fix has a regression test, each mutation-checked (6 mutations, all red on the assertion
they are named after).
