The pager is four named arrows round the page box (first, previous,
next, last). A table hides a tabletHidden column below 64rem of its own
width, as narrowHidden does below 42rem, through one shared helper that
also hides the column's <col>. The Channels table drops Prio, About and
Length there: at 1024 the channel name had 60 px.
- 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.
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.
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.
