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.

peter a210992bfc feat: client log with request ids, joined to the server's
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).

peter 0517de1f59 fix: poll and backfill only channels somebody follows
The scheduled RSS poll and recent backfill covered every channel row,
but rows also come from search results, playlist sync and dropped
subscriptions, and nothing deletes them. On prod 582 of 979 polled
channels had no follower, three of them dead feeds answering 404 on
every poll. Both jobs now take subscribed or explored channels only,
and the scheduler card counts the same set. As a deliberate trade-off,
the shared Library no longer receives new uploads from channels nobody
follows.

peter b59fd38a9c feat: store warnings and request lines in log_events
The log now has a stored, queryable copy for the diagnostics console:
every WARNING and above plus the request line of every request, kept
for log_retention_days (default 7, no "forever") and pruned hourly by
the new log_gc job.

Rows are built on the logging thread from the same redacted fields as
the stdout line, queued without blocking and written in batches by one
background thread on its own connection. A full queue or a failed write
drops and reports instead of retrying. Flood control keeps 30 of any
one message per minute plus a count of the rest; anonymous request
lines are capped at 60 a minute per client, and the client address is
never stored. Deleting an account deletes its stored events.

Measured on prod first: a YouTube RSS outage wrote 11k warnings in four
hours, one per channel per poll. The poll now writes one warning with
per-reason counts and a few examples, and a failure on our side gets
one traceback per poll instead of one per channel.

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.

peter 6c63df6704 feat: one structured log for every process, with a request id
A deployment printed four different log formats and none of them could be
joined up: uvicorn's log_config.json for the API, a hand-rolled StreamHandler in
main.py for anything not started by uvicorn, logging.basicConfig() in the worker
and in the download child (no timestamp at all), and alembic's fileConfig.
app/logs.py replaces all four with one JSON line per event (OpenTelemetry's log
data model, no SDK): ts, level, severity, source, logger, event code, message,
attributes, plus the correlation the context carries — request id, account,
download job.

Redaction is applied at the HANDLER, not at the call sites: every message, every
attribute and every traceback is scrubbed on the way out, so a secret cannot
leak by being forgotten at one of ~125 call sites. Passwords, tokens, cookies,
secret config values and email addresses never reach a line.

The access log is ours now (`http.request`): the route template instead of the
concrete path, the status, the duration and the account — and never the query
string, which uvicorn's access log printed on every single request (`?account=`,
`?source=`, the `?token=` of a share link). A well-formed client request id is
accepted and echoed in X-Request-Id, so a browser line and a server line join up.
The account comes from `request.state`, filled by the auth dependency: the
middleware is the outermost one, so it runs outside SessionMiddleware and in a
different task context.

`log_level` becomes an admin knob (sysconfig), applied without a restart and
re-applied at startup — best-effort on purpose, since a logging knob must never
be what stops the app from booting. Every compose service gets bounded json-file
logs (3×50 MB): Docker keeps every line forever by default, and the API now
writes one line per request.

Verified on the localdev stack: JSON everywhere including alembic and the
worker, the query strings gone, a supplied X-Request-Id echoed and logged, and
three /healthz hits of which only the one made while the level was DEBUG
produced a line.

peter 11aef4ab7a feat: record when an account last signed in
users.last_login_at (migration 0085, no backfill) is stamped by _establish_session,
which the Google callback now shares with password login instead of repeating its
session setup inline. The demo entry does not stamp its shared account. The admin
user list carries the field.

peter 47d968eeea fix: review round 4 — an account switch unloads as the old account, a share link's lockout costs five networks
Deep-review round 4, targeted at round 3's changes (f569b19c..e7f38396).

Accounts
- Switching, adding or signing out an account moved the tab's pin before
  the page unloaded, so the players' resume beacons fired on the way out
  under the NEW account: one account's playback position saved into the
  other. The pin is now handed to the next page (pinOnNextPage) and taken
  over at import; clearActiveAccount is gone.
- Switching to a suspended account was refused but left it in the
  switcher, refused on every click; a deactivated one was not refused at
  all, and made the default it signed every account in the browser out on
  the next request. Every account _session_user would refuse — gone,
  deactivated, suspended, revoked — is refused and dropped from the list.

Share page (/watch)
- An IPv6 client is limited by its /64 (client_ip becomes client_key, for
  every limiter): keyed on the full address, one subscriber could rotate
  through endless identities. The comments now state what the per-link
  ceiling costs: guessing from five networks can keep a link shut for its
  window, and guesses already running when it fills are still checked.
- The link is looked up before the limiter records the attempt, so made-up
  tokens no longer grow it by an entry each.

Forms
- Failing the same way twice is announced again: the sign-in, passphrase
  and setup errors are keyed on the attempt (a clear and a set in one
  handler left the alert node untouched).
- The install wizard's own validation showed the generic error — it threw
  plain objects its catch did not read. It sets the step's message.

Tests: a re-pin leaving the previous account's notices behind; the pin
hand-over; switching to an ended account; the /64 viewer; made-up tokens;
the repeated alerts. Each mutation-checked RED for its own reason.

peter e7f38396a2 fix: review round 3 — a new tab keeps its account's notices, a revoked tab account lands on the default
Deep-review round 3 over main..improvement/watch-background-audio.

Account boot
- The notification history and settings, and the hints toggle, are read
  when their modules load, which in a new tab (bookmark, typed URL) is
  before BootGate pins the account: they read as nobody's, and the tab's
  first notice replaced the account's stored history (up to 100 entries)
  with a one-item list. They now read again when the tab is pinned
  (onAccountPinned, run by setActiveAccount); a notice raised before the
  pin stays, after the history.
- A tab pinned to an account still in this browser's wallet but whose
  session ended (suspended, deleted, or revoked by "log out everywhere")
  got "signed out" from /api/me while the default account was still
  signed in, and signing in again as anyone else left it there. A refused
  per-tab account now leaves the wallet, and the probe answers as the
  default, so the tab reloads onto it.

Share page (/watch)
- The password unlock is limited per viewer (link + client IP), under a
  per-link ceiling that counts only wrong passwords. Keyed on the link
  alone, ten wrong guesses every five minutes locked out every viewer,
  the ones with the password included. client_ip moves to app.ratelimit
  so the public routes can key on it.
- Its failure messages and the load-failure screen are announced
  (role=alert, the password input described by its error). The sign-in,
  passphrase, password-change and setup form errors get role=alert too.

Comments that still described removed machinery are corrected: App's
collapse flags, SettingsPanel's Save bar, ConfigPanel, authed_format_sig.

Tests: the account's history and hints across the pin; a revoked and a
suspended pinned account; the per-viewer limit and the ceiling; the
limiter's exhausted(); the share page's announced failures; a share
link's feed filters persisted. Each mutation-checked RED for its own
reason.

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.

peter 6169e32ca5 fix(downloads): a signed-in Facebook reel keeps its title, and an mp3 stays an mp3
Since a Facebook cookie was added on prod, every reel came down titled
"Video": measured on dev, a signed-in read gives yt-dlp the placeholder
"Video" (an 18+ reel read as Chrome gives "Facebook") while the post's text
is still in the description. A new SourceAdapter.title hook takes the whole
first line of the description in that case, and both title writes (the early
fill and the finished download) go through it, so the row, the file name and
the share preview carry the post's text again. The line is not cut with an
ellipsis: normalize_title's NFKC turns "…" into "..." and collapses it to
".", which read as a finished sentence (seen in dev UAT).

The "Audio (MP3)" profile's extracted .mp3 was remuxed into an .mp4 by the
browser-safe step (the audio spec is clamped to container mp4 too) and served
as video/mp4, which iPad's WebKit will not play (prod job 268). Audio mode now
skips that step, so an .mp3 is served as audio/mpeg and an .m4a as audio/mp4.
Audio downloads version their cache identity on their own (v5), so a cached
remuxed audio re-derives without re-downloading every cached video.

peter 2a9ddb78ac fix(downloads): E11.5 epic-end review round 2
Pause now re-reads the job under the same asset-then-job row lock as resume,
cancel, delete and redownload. Its unlocked write waited for a concurrent
cancel's lock and then set the released job back to paused, a holding status,
so a later delete released the same hold again and could free a file another
user's job still held (measured: the overlapping-request test ends 'paused'
instead of 'canceled' with the old read). The lock test now calls the route
handlers, so it also pins which helper each route uses.

Comments follow the code: resolve_url's contract names both verdicts and that a
failed page read is raised as itself; the inherited-failure diagnosis asks the
cookie gate as it stands when the job is claimed, so its advice fits the cookie
that job's Retry would use; the undecryptable-cookie warning no longer claims a
download goes ahead, since the worker parent reaches it only to diagnose.
2026-09-14 01:42:57 +02:00
peter e887233210 fix(downloads): E11.5 epic-end review round 1
A refused Facebook cookie on a group post is no longer "no video in this post":
measured on dev, Facebook answers with its login page (no post id at all), so the
adapter now raises its own POST_NOT_SHOWN verdict and the catalog explains it as
the refused cookie. The adapter owns both post verdicts and the "cannot parse
data" wall wording, so the Chrome retry and the catalog read one constant. The
group-post "no formats" entry is cookie-scoped (with a cookie yt-dlp only gets the
post's video link) and uses the adapter's own group-post test instead of a
"/groups/" substring.

Job transitions that move an asset's ref count (resume, cancel, delete,
redownload) re-read the job under a row lock, asset first, so two overlapping
requests can no longer release the same hold. get_or_create_asset loses an insert
race inside a SAVEPOINT instead of rolling back the caller's pending writes (Retry
lost its cleared error). Every worker-side job failure goes through
finalize_if_running and writes error_detail, so a cancel that landed first is kept
and a failure never shows an earlier one's copy. The worker asks the download
child's own cookie gate (credentials.usable_cookie) when a job inherits a failed
asset.

UI: the Facebook copy no longer points at a Retry button the failure window does
not have, says "paste" like Settings, and the HU wording is fixed
("Újraletöltés" on the re-download confirm). A category this client has no copy
for falls back to the generic sentence instead of a raw key.

Tests: route serialization of error_detail, the probed duration through a real
_download, the page-read cap and a failed read, a Retry off a pending asset, the
confirm-button labels, the lock and savepoint races.

peter 90ee34a1b4 feat(downloads): a Facebook group post downloads its own video, or says it has none
Given a group post's link, yt-dlp either found no formats or took another
video from the page's feed data, so a "successful" retry of such a post was a
wrong download. With the user's cookie the Facebook adapter now reads the post
page, takes the single video node in the script blocks that carry the post id,
and downloads that video's watch link (the Chrome retry does the rest). No
single video in the post fails with its own message and the group-post copy,
reworded to say the post has no video; the post link is never handed to yt-dlp
as a fallback. Without a cookie nothing changes.
2026-09-13 23:38:11 +02:00
peter 118fc70e08 fix(downloads): take the duration from the file when yt-dlp gives none
A Facebook or Instagram reel extracts with no duration, so the asset kept a
NULL duration_s although the file plays for minutes, and the Library row had
no trim action. The finalize probe now returns the duration with the codecs
(the file wins, info fills a gap), and runs before the sidecars so the .nfo
runtime gets it too.
2026-09-13 23:12:16 +02:00
peter 1354f5b503 feat(downloads): a Facebook cookie download stuck at "Cannot parse data" is retried as Chrome
Measured on dev: with the user's cookie some reels still answer "Cannot parse
data" and only extract when the request impersonates Chrome. Impersonation is
a second attempt behind that one error, only when a cookie is attached — links
that already download with the cookie keep their plain path, and without a
cookie the same error is the login wall.

curl_cffi is pinned inside yt-dlp's supported range (0.10-0.15; outside it
every target silently reports "unavailable"); the lock only gains the new
packages. A test fails the gate if the locked pair can no longer impersonate.
2026-09-13 22:48:21 +02:00
peter 98ec1ffcab fix(downloads): Retry and Re-download take a cookie added after the failure
The login-wall copy tells the user to add their cookies and press Retry, but
Retry kept the job on the shared asset the worker never attaches a cookie to,
so it failed on the same wall. Resume now moves a pending/errored job onto the
asset enqueue would pick with the cookie (never off a file or a download in
flight).

Re-download salted its fresh asset with the job's previous asset id, which the
cookie gate cannot recompute, so even a cookie download rebuilt without the
cookie. The rebuild salt is now the new asset's own id (plus the user's cookie
salt when one applies), and is_authed_asset recognises it.
2026-09-13 22:31:49 +02:00
peter 18c11ca437 feat(downloads): a per-site failure catalog — Facebook's walls say why and what to do
A failed Facebook download read "Download failed": yt-dlp words the login wall
(18+ reel, closed group) as "Cannot parse data", which no category matched.
Measured on dev with the owner's cookie before writing a rule — the same text is
the login wall without a cookie and a refused cookie with one.

- errors.diagnose(msg, url, cookie_attached) tries a host-scoped catalog first
  (all-of markers, cookie state, link fragment) and falls back to the category.
  First entries: facebook.login_wall, facebook.cookie_rejected,
  facebook.group_post_video. The module doc is the recipe for the next entry.
- download_jobs.error_detail (0084) + backfill of the stored Facebook parse
  failures that were unknown.
- The pipeline's failure branch passes the link and whether the cookie went
  with it; resume and redownload clear code and detail (redownload never
  cleared error_code).
- A job meeting an already-failed asset got the text but no code, so it read
  "Download failed" where the first job said why. It is diagnosed again, with
  the cookie state from credentials.is_authed_asset (now shared with the
  cookie gate); the redacted network text classifies back to network.
- FE: failCopyKeys gives the row and the failure window one lookup — catalog
  copy, else the category. Copy in EN and HU; a contract test pins every
  backend entry to both locales.

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 bbd31c7143 feat(keys): Back returns focus to the item a view was opened from; "Feed" everywhere; every backend id named
Owner answers to the E11 S5 raises (2026-09-13): 1 → A, 2 → "Feed" in every language, 3 → translate the
proxy label and fix every config key missing in BOTH languages ("maintenance", "tmdb" — old bugs).

Focus across a view change (1-A). Opening a Plex title from Home's rail, a channel from the Channels
table or a title from a Plex grid switches the page or the sub-view, which unmounts the list; Back used
to hand focus to <body>, so the next `j` started over at the top. The YouTube player (an overlay)
already restored onto the card.
- `lib/listNav`: `navPosition()` (list's place in reading order, the page's list count, item index)
  and `restoreNavPosition()`: focuses the item once the page has as many lists on screen as when it was
  left, polls on a timer (a hidden tab runs no animation frames), gives up after 2 s or at once when
  something already holds focus, focuses without scrolling (the scroll restore owns the position).
- `lib/history`: `rememberNavPosition()` stamps `sfNav` onto the entry being left and returns the state
  without it (a new entry must not inherit it); one popstate listener restores and spends the stamp,
  so a later landing on the same entry (an overlay closing over it) cannot pull focus to an old item.
- Called before every view push: `setPage`, `openChannel`, `enterYtSearch`, `useHistorySubview.open`,
  the Channels tab push. `navPosition.wiring.contract.test` fails on any `history.pushState(` without
  it (the overlay stack's own push is the one exemption).

"Feed" (2). The module is "Feed" in both languages: every "hírfolyam" in the Hungarian UI (≈45 strings,
suffixed: Feedből, Feeded, Feedben…) and the prose "feed" in English that means the module ("your
Feed", "Hide from Feed"); "RSS feed" keeps its meaning. The welcome email says it too.

Backend ids without a name (3). The Configuration page showed `maintenance`, `tmdb`,
`maintenance_revalidate_batch`, `download_upload_max_bytes`, `audit_retention_days`, `plex_overlay_map`,
`tmdb_api_key` and `tmdb_language` as raw identifiers — the lookup falls back to the id, and the i18n
parity test stayed green because both languages missed the same keys. Added labels + hints (EN/HU),
the two groups (and their tab order), the missing `scheduler.jobDesc.demo_reset`, removed the stale
`plex_sync_interval_min` field, and "YouTube API kimenő proxy". `i18n/backendIds.contract.test` reads
`sysconfig.SPECS`, `scheduler.JOB_INTERVALS` and the audit/quota action enums from the backend sources
and fails on an id without its name in either language, or a name left for an id the backend dropped.

peter 8c51062e5b fix(api,ui): the demo refusal says why at every site, and the contract guard cannot fail open
Round 6 converted three of four `is_demo` 403s to a structured detail and wrote a docstring saying it
had converted all the sites there are. The account-delete route in `routes/me.py` still answered a
hand-written English sentence, which `notifyActionError` discards in favour of the caller's
translated fallback — so the demo user gets no hint that the demo account is the reason. It is
UI-gated today, so the string is unreachable; what was reachable was the false completeness claim,
which is precisely what stops the next reader from looking. The site is converted, and the list is
now DERIVED from the source: a new test walks `app/` for every `is_demo`-guarded 403, asserts each
raises a structured detail, and fails when the count moves — so this file cannot fall behind the code
the way it just did.

The same round's frontend contract guard was failing open. Its pattern required a bare identifier
before `.detail` and excluded `.detail` used as a last call argument, so `setErr(e.detail)`,
`(e as HttpError).detail`, `String(e.detail)` and four more idiomatic forms were invisible — and
because the file set is compared with `toEqual`, a file the pattern cannot see is simply never listed
and the gate stays green over a fresh copy of the contract. Widened to cover cast receivers, optional
chains and call-argument reads; the pinned set is unchanged, so the narrowing had removed no false
positive. A destructured `detail` stays out of reach (a pattern loose enough for it fires on
react-query's own `const { data: detail }`), and that hole is written into the test rather than
papered over with two innocent files.

Its anti-vacuity guard also did not guard anything: the comment says the glob must have matched
something, but the assertion under it read a sibling file by its own URL, which resolves whether or
not the glob enumerated anything. That only mattered while the pinned list was non-empty — the moment
the deferral sweep lands and it becomes [], the whole file would pass over a glob matching zero
files. The scan size is asserted now.

peter 71d7646bf1 fix(plex): a name this session cannot write fails at once, and the layout has one spelling
Round 6 turned `artifact_may_arrive` into a positive rule, but keyed it to the HLS vocabulary in
general rather than to what THIS session produces: the playlist regex accepted master/index/stream_*
for every session and the `seq == 0` branch accepted any variant token unconditionally. The two argv
branches are disjoint — a single-audio session is given `seg_%d.ts` + `index.m3u8` and no `%v` at
all, so `master.m3u8`, `stream_*.m3u8` and every `seg_<variant>_<n>.ts` are names it can never write,
and vice versa — so each of those was read as "an HLS name, so wait and see" and held a threadpool
worker, plus its pooled DB connection, for the full timeout. That is verbatim the round-5 outage the
route's own comment claims it prevents.

Measured through the real route against a live single-audio session, before: master.m3u8 404 after
30.0s, stream_q7z.m3u8 404 after 30.0s, seg_a0_0.ts / seg_zzzz_0.ts / seg_0_0.ts 404 after 20.1s
each. After, on the running localdev API: 404 in 44-316ms for all of them, while index.m3u8,
seg_0.ts and seg_1.ts still answer 200 — nothing is over-refused.

The session now carries the rendition names its ffmpeg was told to write, and `entry` is derived from
them instead of passed. And "one place" now means the argv BUILDS its patterns from the same
functions the parser reads back (`segment_name("%d", "%v")`, `variant_playlist_name("%v")`): the
layout was still spelled out independently in six places, with `_VIDEO_VARIANT` read by no consumer,
which is the drift that caused round 6's HIGH. A test asserts the argv's own patterns are what those
functions produce, and that every name they expand to is one the guard accepts.

The load-bearing MEASURED comment cited ffmpeg 8.1.1 — the Windows host's. The binary that writes
these files is the API container's 7.1.5; re-measured there, the conclusion holds.

peter a0114deff1 fix(api,ui): a refused write says why, wherever the refusal happens
Round 5 taught `notifyActionError` to discard a plain-string `detail` in favour
of the caller's translated fallback, because `req` leaves 403/404/429 to the
caller and those routes hand-write English. Three places did not get the
message.

**The demo account lost its explanation.** `require_human` refused with a plain
string, so from that commit on the shared demo account got its caller's generic
"couldn't do that" and no hint that the demo account was the reason — and the
gate is not backed by a UI gate everywhere: the comfort shelf has no `is_demo`
check, so the pin button is live and simply fails. A structured `{code: "demo"}`
and an `errors.demo` string in both locales. The two auth routes that hand-roll
the same check were swept with it.

**`ChatThread` carried a second copy of the contract.** It filtered 404/429
itself and then did `e.detail || t(…)`, the pre-fix order, so the central fix
could not reach it and "That member hasn't set up messaging yet." stayed English
under a Hungarian UI. It goes through the shared helper now, and a contract test
pins the remaining raw-`detail` consumers as an explicit SET — never a count —
so a new copy fails the gate instead of shipping. The five on that list are
inline surfaces (a form field's error line, a setup banner) and are deferred
with the ~60 backend routes whose details they print.

**The Plex "Add to playlist" dialog was still silent.** Same shape as the
collection editor round 5 fixed and the YouTube twin that already had the fix:
no catch, so a playlist deleted on another device answered a structured 404 that
nothing reported — the tick never flipped, the gone row stayed, and the floating
promise became an unhandled rejection.

Also: the `ABORTED` sentinel's VALUE was asserted nowhere. The consumer test
hand-built the error it expected, so replacing `xhr.onabort`'s rejection with a
friendlier message left the lane green — and every upload the user cancels would
then raise a red "the upload failed" toast, which is what the sentinel prevents.
Both producer tests assert through `isAborted` now.

And two backend tests were pinning fewer sites than their own docstrings claimed:
the channel-404 loop said "all five" and issued three requests (explore and
subscribe unexercised, the excuse for subscribe naming a different call site
with a different reason slug), and the recipient/job test named three refusals
and requested two — `share_download`'s `not_found("recipient")` had no test in
the suite at all, nor did the locale keys added beside it. Every site named now
has a request behind it.

6 tests, mutation-checked against 7 mutations: the demo detail at both the gate
and an auth route, a re-hand-rolled ChatThread, the silent Plex dialog, the
abort sentinel, and each unpinned 404 — all red on the test that names them.

peter 7f17b17c13 fix(plex): an HLS session's file names are one vocabulary, and a name it cannot produce fails at once
Round 5 added a guard so a request for a segment beyond the produced region
answers instead of polling out the full timeout — the route is a SYNC one, so
every such wait parks a threadpool worker and, through `current_user`, a pooled
DB connection. Measured against real ffmpeg, the guard could not fire where it
mattered.

`-hls_segment_filename seg_%v_%d.ts` substitutes the VARIANT first: a dual-audio
session writes seg_0_0.ts (video) and seg_a0_0.ts / seg_a1_0.ts (the `name:aN`
renditions). The regex read those as sequence-first, so every video segment
parsed as segment 0 and every audio segment did not parse at all — the guard was
inert on every multi-audio item, which is most of this library. `_seg()` carried
the same inversion: the warm-up waited 8 s for `seg_1_0.ts`, a name ffmpeg never
writes, on every multi-audio session start AND every seek-restart.

The layout is now one constant plus one parser (`segment_name` /
`_SEG_NAME_RE`), with a test pinning them to each other, instead of three
comments that could drift — and they had drifted, all three ways.

The guard is also a positive rule now. It was a blocklist, so anything that was
not a single-audio segment name was waved through: `GET …/anything.m3u8` still
parked a worker for 30 s, while the route's comment claimed a flood of hopeless
names was what it prevented. A session produces its playlists and its segments
and nothing else. `.vtt` leaves `_HLS_CT` with it — ffmpeg runs with `-sn` and
subtitles are a separate route, so that extension could only ever name a file
that will not arrive.

Also here:
- A 5000-digit segment index reached the client as a 500: `int()` on an
  unbounded digit run raises past 4300 digits and only OSError was caught. The
  name is bounded on the route and the index in the regex — the same bug class
  the subtitle routes were bounded for.
- A session torn down between the wait and the read is a 404, not a 500. `_kill`
  rmtrees the directory and no lock spans those two steps; the player's recovery
  is keyed on the STATUS, so a 500 skipped the reclaim and ended playback with
  "couldn't play" instead of restarting at the playhead. The trigger is ordinary
  — `loadSession` awaits the new session before destroying the old hls instance.
- Two comments claimed an open player checkpoints every 10 s "whether or not it
  is playing", which is the stated reason the 30 s finished-idle reap is safe.
  `flush` sends nothing once the finish latch is up, or before a position is
  known. The states it does cover — playing or paused mid-item — are the ones
  the rule needs; the comments now say that instead of more.
- The route's tests leave the DB lane: the route reads nothing from the database
  since the auto-start was removed, and there those four regressions SKIP on a
  machine with no Postgres while pytest prints green.

14 tests, mutation-checked: the old parse, the old warm-up name, the blocklist,
both bounds off the absurd name, the unguarded read, and the route dropping
`proc` — 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 4a7b65d187 fix(api): a refused write is named, in the reader's language
Deep-review round 5, over round 4's own fixes.

- `notifyActionError` preferred the server's `detail` over the caller's translated fallback, and
  `reportFailure` deliberately leaves 403/404/429 to the caller — so for exactly those statuses the
  dozen call sites round 4 converted started printing whatever English a route hand-wrote into an
  otherwise Hungarian UI ("No user with that email.", "Not subscribed to this channel", "Unknown
  job"). A STRUCTURED detail is still preferred: `req` has already run it through `localizeDetail`,
  so it is both localized and more specific. A plain string is not.

- The other half of the same defect, on the backend: round 4's `get_or_404(what="channel")` sweep
  reached exactly ONE of the five identical sites in channels.py and shipped the HU/EN string with
  it, so the Block button said it in Hungarian and the four controls beside it in English. All five
  are converted, and the subscription / share-recipient / scheduler-job 404s with them (two new
  reasons in both locales).

- `PlexCollectionEditor`'s add/remove, take-over and delete were try/finally with no catch — in the
  very file round 4 edited to give `createNew` one. 403 and 404 are the caller's to report, so the
  tick simply never appeared and a CONFIRMED "delete collection" did nothing, silently.

- `UploadDialog` is the only `uploadReq` caller and kept an empty catch whose comment still claimed
  the global error modal had it. It had not since `reportFailure` became shared: a proxy 502 raised
  only the self-clearing connection notice and a 413/403/404 nothing at all, so the dialog snapped
  back to its pre-upload state with no error named. The user's own Cancel stays silent — and since
  a cancel and a network drop both carry status 0, that difference is now a named `isAborted`
  rather than a string literal at each end.

peter 47af4d5c05 fix(plex): an HLS artifact names the session it belongs to, and a paused viewer says so
Deep-review round 5, over round 4's own fixes.

- Sessions are keyed by rating_key alone while a session's DIRECTORY is per (key, offset, tag), and
  the artifact URL carried no session identity — so once a seek-restart or a second viewer of the
  same item took the registry slot, the old viewer's request for `seg_12.ts` was answered 200 with
  the new session's twelfth segment: bytes from a different `-ss` offset under `-copyts`, on a
  timeline the client is not on. Wrong content with a success status is the one failure a player
  cannot notice, and round 4's reclaim-on-404 could never fire on it. The id is in the path now (so
  the playlist's relative names resolve back into the same session), a mismatch is a 404, and the
  player reclaims at the playhead. The entry playlist's auto-start is gone with it: it could only
  ever begin at 0, silently discarding the viewer's position.

- Round 4 exempted paused viewers from the reaper by keeping EVERY finished session for the full
  ten-minute idle window — one whole segmented copy of a film per item, on the volume the download
  center shares. The signal it needed already existed: an open player checkpoints its position every
  10 s whether or not it is playing, so that route now touches the session and the periodic pass is
  back on the short rule.

- POST /session's opportunistic reap was never scoped to the key being started: it walked the whole
  registry with the 30 s finished rule, so pressing play on ANY item — even a direct-play one, the
  call ran before that early return — killed another viewer's paused session. It is gone; the
  periodic pass owns reaping.

- A segment that can never arrive no longer polls out the full 20 s: the producer's handle is passed
  to `wait_for`, so a finished ffmpeg answers at once. This is a sync route, so each such wait parked
  a threadpool worker AND a pooled DB connection, and an ordinary seek past the produced region was
  enough to do it.

- The DataError handler's re-raise branch — the half that keeps a genuine DataError a 500 — is
  pinned, so simplifying it to an unconditional 422 cannot pass in silence.

peter 6d49da17fe fix(api): a write that hit a connection failure is still reported, and every failure is reported once
Deep-review round 4, the "one report per failure" contract round 3 introduced.

- `req` marked gateway (502/503/504) and network failures "already reported" because they raise
  the connection notice. But that notice is about connectivity and removes itself on the very next
  answer — which every caller's own resync refetch fetches at once — so a delete that hit a
  keepalive reset flashed the notice and was then reported nowhere, the list still there. Only the
  durable reports (the error dialog, the 401 sign-out) count now; the caller says the action failed.
- A connection notice the user closed swallowed every later one for the rest of the visit; it is
  raised again.
- `req` and `uploadReq` share one failure policy (`reportFailure`). The upload copy had drifted: a
  502 opened the blocking "Server error (502)" dialog and cleared a notice that was still true.
- A taken Plex collection name is a structured 409, localized, and the create/rename calls are
  quiet: it was an English dialog plus a Hungarian toast. `notifyCollectionEditError` is gone.
- The mutation onErrors that toasted unconditionally after a non-quiet request (invite approve /
  deny / add, demo whitelist, audit clear, scheduler, share, full history, edit, config tests, tag
  attach) go through `notifyActionError`; the playlist delete's hand-rolled copy of it too (it takes
  a level now). The user role / suspend / delete actions had no onError at all: a user deleted in
  another tab failed silently and stayed listed — now said, and the list refetched.

peter 31dc4184f5 fix(api): a paused viewer keeps its HLS session, a refused subtitle publish backs off, and a NUL is a 422 everywhere
Deep-review round 4, backend half.

- The periodic HLS reaper (round 3) applied the "finished and unfetched for 30 s" rule that only a
  NEW session request may apply. A remux finishes long before the film, and a paused player with a
  full buffer fetches nothing, so a one-minute pause killed the session and playback died ~30 s after
  resuming. The periodic pass is `reap_abandoned` now (the long idle limit, finished or not).
- A subtitle `publish` that could not keep its output (full / read-only cache volume) returned
  quietly, so every poll queued the window and the whole-container pass again. It reports failure
  and the pass is backed off like a failed read; a cached VTT that cannot be READ is answered
  `unavailable` (`cache_unreadable`) instead of scheduling reads that can never land.
- The subtitle routes bound `rating_key` / `sub_ord` (they become a cache file name: a 250-digit
  one was ENAMETOOLONG, which pathlib's exists() re-raises -> a 500), and the cache helpers no longer
  throw on such a name.
- One app-wide handler turns psycopg's "text fields cannot contain NUL" DataError into a 422: round 3
  guarded only the by-rating_key lookup, and `contains=`, `contains_group=`, reorder/bulk key lists
  and the collection search still 500'd.
- The hand-written `db.get(...) is None -> 404 "Unknown ..."` siblings use `get_or_404` with a
  `what` (channel / video / user), so the Hungarian UI no longer shows English for a gone row.

peter 86971c574d fix(api): progress checkpoints past the int4 column are a 422, and idle HLS sessions are reaped on a timer
Deep-review round 3 of bug hunt 2026-09.

- The YouTube and Plex progress bodies are bounded by POSITION_MAX_S (the int4 position columns): a
  finite position of 2^31 or more was a DataError, i.e. a 500 — the sibling of round 2's non-finite
  fix.
- plex/stream.py promised "a periodic reaper", but reap_idle ran only inside the NEXT session
  request: after the last playback an abandoned session (its ffmpeg still working, its directory a
  whole segmented copy of the film) lived until someone pressed play again. A lifespan task reaps
  every 60 s.
- Tests for what round 2 left untested: the 422's body keeps the list shape the UI localizes, and
  stream_session refuses non-finite start/aoff.

Deep-review round 3 of bug hunt 2026-09.

- get_or_404 / owned_or_404 answer a structured {code: "not_found", reason: <what>}
  (errors.notFound.* in HU+EN, generic fallback). The structured-404 fix of round 2 had gone into the
  ad-hoc `_own_playlist` (CLAUDE.md's "Not" pattern) while the shared helpers stayed string-only, so
  views, tags, pins, Plex playlists, invites and users still 404'd in English. `_own_playlist` now
  goes through owned_or_404; admin's hand-rolled user lookups use get_or_404.
- A move into a list that is gone names the TARGET (reason "move_target") — "this playlist doesn't
  exist any more" was read as the list on screen, which still exists.
- Every refusal in the playlists router is a {code: "playlist", reason} (playlists.errors.* HU+EN)
  instead of a bare English string shown verbatim in the Hungarian UI.
- `req` / `uploadReq` mark the errors they already put on screen (the error dialog, the connection
  notice, the 401 sign-out), and notifyActionError skips those. The watched toggles, the saved views
  and a playlist delete toasted a fault the dialog was already showing; Playlists' two hand-written
  status filters now go through the same check.

peter 4f37c41021 fix(plex): a subtitle failure about one position no longer ends the track, and windows are read ahead and never wait behind a full pass
Deep-review round 3 of bug hunt 2026-09.

- `failed` is now final only for a track that can never be text (bitmap, no item/track/file). A Plex
  hiccup or a stretch ffmpeg could not read answers `unavailable`: said, polled again every 5 s, and
  the <track> stays mounted when cues exist elsewhere (gen > 0). Re-picking the selected track asks
  the server again at once.
- Within LOOKAHEAD_S of a covered stretch's end the next window is read ahead, instead of only once
  the playhead has fallen off it (subtitles dropped out at every edge while the full pass was backed
  off or slower than a window lasts).
- Windows and full passes run on separate pools with separate in-flight caps, so a window never
  queues behind (or is refused by) minute-long full passes — the pool comment promised that and
  nothing enforced it.
- A pass that times out is TERMinated and keeps what it reached (published as partial) instead of
  being killed and discarded.
- Lapsed failure memos are swept on every write (they were only pruned when the same key was read
  again, so polling fresh keys grew the process without bound).
- `publish` no longer merges into a sidecar with no VTT behind it, or claims a region whose VTT write
  failed, or overwrites an unreadable track with one window.
- A NUL in a rating_key names no row (it was a DataError, a 500, on every Plex route) and no longer
  500s the status poll.

peter dcd8a9566a fix(playlists): the player's Remove follows the list it was launched from, the player survives a change of selection, and a gone list is said in the reader's language
- D3 snapshotted the removal's TARGET, but whether the player offered Remove still followed the
  selected list: launched from Watch later (no Remove, by design), selecting another list under it
  made Remove appear — and delete from Watch later. The snapshot now carries the launch list's
  editability too.
- Selecting another list under an open player (the command palette works over it) put the page into
  "Loading…", and the player was rendered only in the loaded branch — it vanished mid-playback and
  came back at its launch video. It now sits at one place in the tree whatever the page is doing.
- A removal takes the video out of the CACHED list as well as the rows: the player's progress
  checkpoint rewrote that entry before the refetch landed, handing the membership guard a list that
  still held the video — the row came back and the undo history went.
- The watched-state callback refreshed the selected list, not the launch list (D3's sibling).
- `_own_playlist`'s 404 is structured (`{"code": "playlist", "reason": "not_found"}`) and localised:
  the bare "Unknown playlist" reached the Hungarian UI in English, which also made round 1's new
  `removeFailed` string unreachable. Both Remove and Move report through `notifyActionError` now.
- The "viewer moved on under the confirm" test stepped back only once, which lands on the same video
  whether or not the removed one left the queue; it now takes the second step that tells them apart.

now refuse non-finite floats, and the app's validation handler — FastAPI's own shape — echoes a
non-finite input by name: the default one failed to serialise its own error (JSON has no NaN), which
was a 500 by another route. Sibling of the subtitle routes' non-finite query parameters.

peter 473d9f02f2 fix(plex): subtitle windows land where the full pass does, and the extractor stops re-reading, respawning and outliving the process
Deep-review round 2 of the 2026-09 bug hunt, over the round-1 fix diff.

- A window was LATE by the distance to the keyframe its input seek landed on, and then doubled for
  good once the full pass merged in: a cue already running at the window's start came out at a
  negative time, and the webvtt muxer's default shifted the whole output so it sat at 0. Measured on
  the real Westworld S01E06 at 25:00: every window cue +5.005 s, 682 cues merged instead of 608.
  `-avoid_negative_ts disabled` keeps the times exact (the parser reads ffmpeg's signed-field
  spelling of a negative time); now 608/608 on that file, and a real-ffmpeg test pins it.
- A full pass that failed was re-armed every minute while the viewer watched what it did publish —
  a whole-container read per minute. It now backs off for an hour; windows keep running meanwhile.
- A failed WINDOW set the track's failure memo, so any uncovered position read "failed" — a final
  answer that ends the player's poll, even with the full pass about to deliver, and one any account
  could plant with an absurd `at`. It now marks only the span it failed to read; "failed" is given
  once the full pass AND a window there have both failed.
- Windows join by what they COVER, not a bucketed identity: a backward seek no longer waits behind a
  window that cannot cover it, and a playhead crossing a bucket edge no longer queues a second read.
  The queue is bounded per track and overall.
- shutdown() sets a flag a worker checks before it spawns ffmpeg (one still in its Plex lookup used to
  start a read after the kill sweep); queued-job cancellation and the lifespan call are now tested.
- A window starts where ffmpeg is told to seek (rounded to the ms it gets), a rounded-up millisecond
  carries into the minute (no more `00:00:60.000`), a key's first publish claims nothing before its
  VTT lands, and `at`/`offset`/`start`/`aoff` refuse non-finite values (`at` also an absurd one).

  quiet, so a persistent 500 re-opened the global error dialog every second. It now backs off to
  10 s (a blip still heals on its own) and is quiet; the player already shows the failure inline.
- A <track> whose own VTT fetch failed never fetched again: with the server's answer unchanged its
  key was unchanged, so React kept the dead element — silently blank subtitles. The key (now built
  in the hook, where it is tested) carries a failed-load count; after two remounts the track is
  reported as unavailable instead.
- Found in UAT: until the first timeupdate `abs` is 0, so after a resume every poll said at=0 and
  the first window was cut around the head of the film (a resume at 20:00 polled at=0 for as long
  as it stayed paused). The poll reports the session's start until playback ticks. And the window's
  dedup identity is the track plus a window-length bucket of its start — keyed on the track alone
  (R1), the right window queued behind that wrong one.

The poll's start/stop rules finally have tests (every earlier one resolved a single fixed answer).
Verified on localdev against Westworld S1E6 resumed at 20:00: the polls carried at=1197, one
subtitle line on screen at 21:02, the poll stopped at `ready`; the real file's window (56 cues) +
full pass (608) merged to 608 — the old merge would have served 664. 11 mutations, all red.

peter cf7ec5e9ec fix(plex): the subtitle extractor's seams — doubled cues, a truncated track cached as whole, a poll that respawned ffmpeg
Deep-review of the bug-hunt round (R1). The background extractor from ed4ab4e1 held, but its seams
did not:

- Window + full pass doubled every cue in the first hour. merge_vtt de-duplicated on the raw timing
  text, and the two passes spell a timestamp differently (shift_vtt writes HH:MM:SS.mmm, ffmpeg's
  webvtt muxer drops the hour below 1 h; shift_vtt(-0.0) never normalised the full pass). Timing is
  now parsed and re-emitted canonically, keyed with the cue text so two cues sharing a time survive.
- A full pass that exited non-zero was published as complete: "ready" forever, subtitles ending
  where ffmpeg died, and no eviction to ever retry. It now covers only up to its last cue, is never
  complete, and records the failure memo.
- The window's dedup identity held the live playhead, so every 1 s poll queued another read of the
  file. It is keyed on the track now, and a queued job re-checks coverage before reading anything.
- A sidecar track waited behind an unrelated embedded full pass (the full job is per item). Its
  window job now fetches it whole — one small request.
- The <track> fetch ran the scheduler at position 0: an unrequested window over the head of the file,
  and a refusal of a window that was on disk. It is a pure read of the cache now.
- publish() is serialised (a lost update became permanent once complete was set); the pool is shut
  down and running ffmpeg children killed at app shutdown (they held interpreter exit for minutes);
  ?at=inf is a 422, not a 500; and both subtitle routes use current_user instead of the cookie-only
  poster gate, which let a suspended or epoch-revoked session keep scheduling reads (pre-existing).

_extract_and_publish finally has tests of its own — every earlier test stubbed it out. 19 mutations,
each red on the assertion that names it.

peter 889d2acf52 feat(plex): the collection page sorts, and a linked collection has a name
Two halves of the same report ("Collectionben nem működik a rendezés?"). The pasted browse URL
sorts correctly — that part was working. What did not:

The Collection INFO page had no sort control at all and a hardcoded release-year-ascending order.
It now shows the browse grid's Sort control, with the browse grid's vocabulary, because a second
sort vocabulary on a neighbouring surface is exactly the kind of drift this repo keeps paying for:
`PLEX_SORT_KEYS` is now one tuple in `plex/query.py`, and a test pins BOTH implementations to it —
browse's key→column map (extracted from the handler to be reachable) and the collection page's
key→member map. A key added to the vocabulary without teaching one of them fails the gate instead
of putting a dead option in the menu.

Ordering a collection cannot be a single ORDER BY: its two legs are different tables, so the merged
member list is sorted in Python. Members with no value for the key sink to the END in both
directions (a movie with no rating is not "the worst rated" — the browse grid's `nullslast()`), and
ties always resolve title-ascending, so flipping the direction reverses the ranking rather than the
alphabet inside it. `lastwatched` needed the show leg's `resumed_at`, so the page now takes ONE
rollup pass that yields both the badge status and the recency instead of the status alone — without
it that menu entry would have ordered every show as never-watched. The default stays release-year
ascending: a franchise reads in release order, and that is what the page did before.

The other half: a shared Plex link carries the collection filter as bare rating_keys, so a link
opened cold had no name for them — the sidebar token rendered `17045` and the chip could only say
"Collection". `GET /api/plex/collections` takes a `keys=` CSV now, and a display-only hook resolves
just the missing ids. It deliberately does NOT write them into `collectionTitles`: that map is
hashed into the Plex query keys, so storing a resolved label there would split the cache from the
identical state and refetch the grid for a piece of text.

Verified in the browser on localdev against the real Plex library: the movie collection's menu
offers Length and the show collection's does not (the same scope rule as browse); rating-ascending
reorders 8.1/7.4/7.2/6.6/6.5 correctly; `lastwatched` on a show collection brings the in-progress
shows up; the choice survives a reload (it is a server pref, on its own key so opening a collection
never re-sorts the library behind it); and the reported URL now reads "Pirates of the Caribbean
Collection" in both the sidebar and the chip.

12 pytest + 8 vitest, mutation-checked against 14 mutations (direction ignored, nulls first, no
stable tiebreak, unknown key untouched, wrong default, show recency dropped, empty `keys=` falling
through to everything, a key missing from either sort map, every id refetched, ids unsorted,
fetched titles unmerged, the chip ignoring them, the hook's result never reaching the builder) —
each red on exactly the test that names it.

peter 5a42d76e8a feat(plex): an off-by-default loudness normalisation toggle for playback
Bug hunt 2026-09, item 14 — "how does the multichannel downmix work, and is it
normalised?" It isn't: `plex/stream.py` has always encoded `-c:a aac -ac 2 -b:a
192k`, i.e. fixed stereo with ffmpeg's default downmix matrix and no loudness
handling at all, which is why a film mastered for a cinema arrives with whispered
dialogue and deafening action.

New admin knob `plex_audio_loudnorm` (Configuration → Plex), DEFAULT OFF: it makes
a film markedly louder and narrows its dynamic range, which is a taste call rather
than a fix. It sits at the end of the Plex group, after the software-transcode
knobs — it is an audio concern, not one of the libx264 ones.

  -af aformat=channel_layouts=stereo,loudnorm=I=-16:TP=-1.5:LRA=11,aresample=48000

Three things about that chain are load-bearing and each has a test:

  * the downmix is FORCED FIRST rather than left to `-ac 2` — measuring 5.1 and
    folding it down afterwards would normalise something other than what is heard;
  * the trailing resample is not decoration: `loudnorm` runs its own resampler at
    192 kHz internally, which the AAC encoder will not take;
  * one `-af`, no stream index, so EVERY audio rendition of a multi-audio file is
    normalised — not just the first.

The knob is also part of the session directory name (`…_multi-ln_+0.00`), because
it changes the audio the segments contain, and a session left over from before the
admin flipped it must not be mistaken for one that honours it. The suffix is
appended with a DASH: `_SESSION_DIR_RE` treats the tag as one underscore-free
field, and that regex is the only thing keeping the orphan sweep off what may be a
shared scratch path. A test pins both halves — the name changes, and the sweep
still recognises it.

Measured end-to-end on the app's own HLS segments (a real 5.1 AC3 file, same item,
same 160 s offset, same ten segments): OFF -35.2 LUFS, ON -17.2 LUFS. On a 60 s
bench: I -27.6 → -16.6 LUFS with LRA 13.3 → 9.8 LU. A/V sync is untouched — under
this pipeline's own `-copyts` the audio start PTS is identical with and without the
filter, so the 3 s lookahead desyncs nothing.

Direct-played files are served untouched and stay so; a 5.1 mix is always `remux`,
so the reported case is fully covered.
2026-09-10 20:02:06 +02:00
peter ed4ab4e13c fix(plex): subtitles stop blocking the request, and stop re-reading the file
Bug hunt 2026-09, items 8 and 12 — the two things the Plex player was measurably
lying about.

Item 8: picking a subtitle track showed nothing for a long time, and the reported
workaround was to stop/start until it suddenly worked. Measured on prod against a
17.06 GB MKV with two embedded SubRip tracks:

  full pass, one track                154 s
  full pass, both tracks in ONE run   111 s
  -c:s copy (no WebVTT conversion)    143 s
  from 1:00:00 to the end of file      66 s
  a 630 s window at 1:00:00, both       8 s

So the conversion was never the cost: ffmpeg streams every byte of the container
between its seek point and its stop point, and the array delivers ~140 MB/s. The
only lever is reading less. Three changes follow from that:

  * a window around the playhead is extracted and published FIRST (seconds), and
    the full pass completes behind it;
  * every embedded text track rides that same single read — picking Hungarian used
    to cost a full pass and then switching to English cost another one;
  * none of it happens inside a request any more. The endpoint answers 202 while a
    background worker extracts, the player polls /status (carrying its position, so
    the window follows the viewer), and one ffmpeg run finally has a timeout.

-copyts is deliberately absent from a windowed pass: with it ffmpeg ignores -t and
reads the whole container anyway (measured — a [0, 600 s] window still took the
full 145 s), so a window comes back on a zero-based clock and is shifted to
absolute time here. Cached tracks written by older builds have no coverage sidecar
and count as complete, so nothing is re-extracted after the upgrade.

The <track> is no longer mounted before the server has something to put in it; a
"Preparing subtitles: …" notice stands in, and a track that can never be shown says
why instead of leaving the viewer to conclude the picker does nothing.

Item 12: "Bitrate" read a constant 211 kbps on every remux, because it was the
master playlist's BANDWIDTH — which ffmpeg derives from the one stream whose rate
it knows, the -b:a 192k AAC track, plus 10%. It is a measurement now: bytes per
second of MEDIA from hls.js FRAG_LOADED, accumulated per fragment type and summed
(a multi-audio session's video and audio renditions cover the same media seconds,
so pooling them would report half the truth), and an honest dash until the first
fragment lands. The panel also finally names the audio and subtitle track in play.

Verified in the browser against the real Plex library, and every new test
mutation-checked.
2026-09-10 19:31:05 +02:00
peter b8bff504d8 fix(plex): "Clear resume point" now tells Plex about an in-progress item
The button deletes the local row and mirrors the un-mark to Plex, but it decided whether
to push from the previous STATUS alone (prev_status != "new") — and an in-progress item's
row is status="new" carrying a position, which is exactly how the importer maps a bare
viewOffset. So for the single case the button exists for, nothing was ever sent to Plex:
the offset stayed, and the next pull imported it straight back. The user cleared Protector
twice and it returned to Continue watching at 92s both times.

Push now when Plex holds anything to clear — a view count, or a resume point. "hidden"
stays Siftlode-only and pushes nothing, which is what this endpoint's docstring always
claimed and the status-only guard contradicted.

One unscrobble clears BOTH viewCount and viewOffset — measured against the live server from
a watched+offset state and an offset-only one, so the push itself needed no change. The
client docstring that claimed "clears viewCount" is what sent the first diagnosis down a
wrong path (a timeline write with time=0, which does not clear an offset at all); it now
records what the server actually does.

Verified end to end on the real Plex server: the button leaves viewCount=None viewOffset=None,
and a full 44,885-item re-import brings back no row for it.
2026-09-09 23:55:51 +02:00
peter e4ffd59ca7 fix(e24): review round 2 — a buried history entry, a stale hero, and a spinner that was not ours
Nine of the round's ten surviving findings. The tenth (a failed shelf reorder leaving an
order the server rejected on screen) is on ROADMAP.md: its obvious remedy reintroduces the
overlapping-move defect the code already documents, so it wants a design, not a review edit.

- `navigateOverOverlays` buried the live overlay entries before knowing whether the
  navigation pushed one. `setPage` no-ops when the page is already current and Home is the
  default landing page, so Shift+W over a player ON Home marked its entry buried under a
  push that never happened: the unmount consumed the mark instead of reclaiming the entry,
  and the next browser Back was a press that did nothing. `setPage` now reports whether it
  navigated, and one `buryUnder` rule serves both entry points — `closeThenNavigate` takes
  the same no-op navigation from a palette command for the page you are already on.
- The hero could answer a new time budget with the previous one's pick. The chip row resets
  seed/seen/press but cannot reset an answer that already resolved, and `keepPreviousData`
  chained through the disabled seed-0 query — so a reroll under "10 perc" showed the film
  picked for "Bármennyi" while it loaded, and kept it if the request failed. `lastPick` now
  carries the server's own budget echo, and the placeholder is scoped to the budget.
- The reroll button spun and swallowed clicks after mark-watched, bookmark, pin and shelf
  moves: the pick key sits under the invalidated `discover` prefix on purpose, so raw
  `isFetching` was true for background refetches. It now means "a press of mine is
  outstanding" — which still covers the first press, where there is no placeholder.
- Failed writes on Home toasted the page's LOAD-failure string over a fully loaded page;
  they get their own key (HU+EN). The empty-state reroll had no `loading`, so the press was
  unacknowledged and a second click skipped a tier. `danger` moved into the shared unpin row
  so the same command is not red on the shelf and neutral in the rail below it.
- Two comments claimed things the code does not do: the `exclude` cap guards no "unbounded
  scan" (it never reaches SQL), and the route test that named the cap sends three keys.

Tests: the burial rule gets its own file (it is the one assertion that lets a reconcile
issue a real programmatic back()); App's keymap wiring gets a source contract, because
dropping it left all 818 tests green; `add_pin`'s IntegrityError arm was reached by nothing.
Every new test mutation-checked red, both edges where the predicate has two.

Gate: ruff, ruff format, 3x tsc, eslint (0 errors), prettier, knip, vitest 822, pytest 1005.
2026-09-09 00:12:53 +02:00
peter 3709b71a94 fix(e24): the review's low findings — dead constants, honest labels, a 500 that should be a 404
`add_pin`'s IntegrityError handler assumed the unique constraint was the only way in and
re-raised otherwise, so a target row pruned between `resolve_ref` confirming it and the
INSERT (a Plex sync dropping a removed item) tripped the FK and handed the user a 500.
Semantically that is the same "no such thing" the pre-check already returns. Untested: the
race needs two concurrent transactions.

The five per-kind unique constraints had no test at all — the route's own dedupe returns
before reaching the DB, and the migration drift check filters constraint diffs out as noise,
so they could go missing with every lane green.

Frontend, all from the same review: the shelf's unpin row is now `danger` like every other
destructive row in the app; the hero's artwork button says what it will actually do and
names the item instead of always announcing "Play"; the empty-budget message offers a reroll
rather than `StateMessage`'s "Retry", which promised a re-run of something that had not
failed; `setState` and the watch-later toggle catch their rejections instead of leaving an
unhandled promise and a click that silently does nothing.

`StateMessage` gained a `compact` rung, which retires the frontend's only two `!important`
overrides — they existed to beat the primitive's own padding from the call site, and were
the copyable idiom for the next surface that wanted a compact empty state.

Dead vocabulary removed or made load-bearing: `DISCOVER_BUDGETS` was exported, re-exported
and consumed by nothing while `Home.tsx` re-typed the same four bands (a `readonly
DiscoverBudget[]` accepts any subset, so a fifth band would have typechecked green and
rendered no chip); `PIN_KINDS`' value export had no consumer at all; `useComfortPin` no
longer publishes `pinIdOf`/`toggle`, which nothing outside the module calls.

Three comments corrected against the code they describe: a pointer to a `resolve.py` that
was never written, the file header's claim that Home defines no card component of its own,
and the `seen` window still quoting the 8 that was measured and abandoned for 32.

The rest of the review's survivors are logged on ROADMAP.md under "Deferred — E24 epic-end
deep-review (2026-09-08)" — the ones whose dissent was substantive, and the ones whose fix
is wider than the finding.
2026-09-08 03:23:59 +02:00
peter cedebe0ffb test(e24): close the review's coverage gaps, and correct a comment that was untrue
`test_only_a_show_row_pays_for_a_resolution` seeded no watch state, so every rail query
inner-joined its way to zero rows and the loop body — with it the assertion — never ran. It
now seeds a video, a movie and an episode, and asserts all three kinds are present before
the loop, so it cannot go vacuous again.

The Plex half of the surprise rail had no test for either of its promises: every test that
reached `plex_surprise` passed budget="any" against a library with no state rows, so the
duration bounds and the already-started exclusion could both be deleted with the suite
green. The YouTube half has had tests for the same two rules since S1 — the asymmetric half
of one principle.

`plex_item` and `plex_show` — two of the five pinnable kinds — were pinned by no test at
all, leaving the rating_key → internal-id translation and both shelf arms uncovered,
including the self-reference cycle that once 500'd the shelf. And `GET /api/discover/pick`
was exercised only through its domain function, so the route's own query-string translation
could regress silently; the new test excludes all three candidates, which is what proves the
whole list parsed rather than one unsplit string.

`PIN_COLUMNS`/`PIN_KINDS` claimed in a comment to be the one place the pin vocabulary is
spoken and had no readers anywhere: `resolve_ref` re-spelled the column names and the route
re-typed the kind list. Both now drive off the constants.

The `_NO_TS` sentinel was introduced as a crash fix and is not one. The key it replaced,
`(ts is not None, ts)`, cannot raise — tuple comparison finds the first UNEQUAL element via
`==`, so two null keys compare equal and `None < None` is never reached; three independent
runs confirmed it over every permutation. The rationale now says what the sentinel actually
buys, lives once in `plex.rollup`, and the third rail that was still on the older spelling
has been swept to match. Its test is renamed and re-scoped to the mutation it does catch.

Frontend: the reroll's second press asserted `expect.any(Array)`, which cannot tell an
accumulating exclusion window from a replacing one — both that and SEEN_WINDOW = 1 (each
reinstating the measured nine-card cycle) left the suite green. And `onInfo`'s jump type was
untested while `onPlay`'s was pinned twice, so pointing the ⓘ affordance at the player
typechecked and shipped green.

All eight fixes mutation-checked; every mutant died on its intended test.
2026-09-08 03:14:21 +02:00
peter 84f4b20e5a fix(e24): the review's three backend defects — blocklist, shelf order, next episode
The resume rail built its own SELECT instead of going through `filtered_query` and copied
only three of its predicates, so it dropped the per-user channel blocklist the module
docstring claims it inherits. Blocking a channel never touches `video_states`, so a
half-watched video from it kept its resume position and headed the rail — and, at the
default budget with the resume tier leading, became the landing page's hero: the app
answering "what should I watch" with the thing the user had just banned. The clause is now
`feedquery.not_blocked_cond`, shared with `filtered_query` rather than copied a second
time; the feed's SCOPE clauses stay deliberately unapplied, for the reason `yt_video_row`
already gives.

`next_position` returned the shelf's row COUNT while nothing ever renumbers positions —
`remove_pin` deletes, and every FK cascade removes a pin when its target disappears. Past
the first hole the count under-counts, so a new pin landed in the middle of the shelf and,
past the second, on a position another pin already held. `max(position) + 1`, the idiom
`routes/playlists` already uses.

`next_episode` took the FIRST in-progress episode in broadcast order while `plex.rollup`,
which drives the show page's Resume button, takes the last. One show therefore had two
different "continue watching" answers, with the Home tile ranking it by its most recent
touch and then offering the episode abandoned weeks earlier. The new test asserts the two
implementations against each other rather than against a literal.

All three mutation-checked: each new test goes red for the defect it names.
2026-09-08 02:32:08 +02:00
peter 82914b56ca fix(e24): the Home surface's three UAT findings — Back, the reroll, and a show card
All three were measured before they were touched, and the diagnosis moved twice.

**Back from a Plex title played off Home landed on the Plex module's root.** One
click pushed three history entries: the page navigation, the sub-view opened by
the `jumpTo` hand-off, and — under StrictMode, whose effect body runs twice
before `setJumpTo(null)` re-renders — that same sub-view a second time. So the
first Back visibly did nothing and the second stranded the user on a Discover
page they had never visited.

A cross-module hand-off is the CONTINUATION of the navigation that brought you
there, not a second navigation, so it now REPLACES the page entry instead of
stacking on it (`useHistorySubview.open(view, {replace})`, asked for by the jump
target). Replacing is also idempotent, which is what disarms the StrictMode
double-run. The intent rides on `PlexJumpTarget` rather than being inferred,
because the header typeahead jumps from INSIDE the module, where the entry being
replaced would be a sub-view the user really was looking at.

**"Mást kérek" cycled nine cards and never left the resume tier.** Measured:
twelve presses, nine distinct titles, period nine, every one `tier: "resume"` —
the shelf and the surprise tier were unreachable by pressing the button. Two
causes multiplied: the tiers were tried in a fixed priority order over a 20-row
resume rail, so the button just walked down it; and the client's rolling
exclusion window of 8 guaranteed the wrap.

The press count now rotates which tier answers first (`start`), so each press
offers a different KIND of answer — the user's call, given the choice between
that, a wider window, and a surprise-only reroll. The fallthrough is kept, so a
press does not come back empty because the tier it led with had nothing. The
window is matched to the server's own cap rather than a smaller number of ours.

**A half-watched series on Home opened the show page.** A movie already went
straight to the player; only shows did not — and the comfort shelf and the hero
both resolved a show to its next episode while this rail alone did not, handing
back six seasons to choose between. The rail row now carries `next`, and the
client already played `next ?? card`, so this is a backend fix.

Affording it needed `queries.next_episode` to stop loading every episode of the
show into Python to pick one of them (236 rows for Friends, 227 for JAG) — three
ordered LIMIT 1 probes instead. The show→episode rule now lives in ONE function
(`rails.playable`), which is what the shelf, the hero and the rail all call; two
implementations are how they came to disagree.

Ten mutations run, all ten red for the right test — including a first pass where
the press count reached `api.discoverPick` and stopped there, invisible because
every Home test mocks that module. The slice now has its own URL test.

Verified in a clean browser tab against the live account: one Back returns to
Home, the rotation gives resume/comfort/surprise across nine presses with no
repeat, and Westworld opens at S1E1 rather than at its show page.
2026-09-06 05:38:28 +02:00
peter f3c0b7be23 feat(e24): the Home surface — one question, one answer, both sources
E24 S2. A new `home` module in layout C+ (the mockup the owner picked): the
time-budget chips on top, one large hero that answers them, then the comfort
shelf and a cross-source resume rail. Home is the landing — deliberately OVER
the remembered last module, since landing on whatever you happened to close the
app on is the habit this epic exists to replace; `LS.startOnHome = "0"` opts an
account back out (Settings toggle lands in S4).

No third card component: each unified card carries the native feed / Plex
payload, so the rails render through the existing VideoCard (`cardsSmall`) and
PlexPosterCard, and `aspect` decides the tile shape without branching on source.
Plex playback hands off to the Plex module via a new `jumpTo` type — the player
lives there with its lazy hls.js and its provider tree, and mounting a second one
on the landing page to save one hand-off would be the expensive way round.

Four defects found by driving it in a real browser against the live account, each
now pinned by a mutation-checked test:

- **The reroll gave the same card back.** A new seed only re-draws the SURPRISE
  tier; the resume tier deterministically returns the most recently progressed
  thing that fits, so anyone with something half-finished pressed a dead button.
  `/pick` now takes an `exclude` list of `<source>:<id>` keys and the client keeps
  a rolling window of 8. Excluding a SHOW also excludes the episode it resolves
  to — otherwise the same suggestion comes back wearing a hat.
- **"Nothing to suggest yet" flashed over a full library** whenever a reroll was
  in flight: the new query key has no data for a beat. An empty state standing in
  for a loading one is the dishonesty the house rules name outright. The hero now
  falls back to the loaded payload while a pick is pending, and only trusts a null
  once the pick has RESOLVED.
- **A budget change replaced the page — chips included — with a spinner**, so the
  control you just clicked vanished under your cursor. `keepPreviousData`, the
  same reason the feed uses it.
- **The hero printed twice**, once as itself and once as the first resume tile.

Two smaller UI calls made from the same session: the budget caption sits NEXT to
its chips rather than in SegmentedToggle's justify-between mode, which on an 80rem
page throws the answers to the far edge; and the feed takes the YouTube mark its
own toolbar already uses, since Home now owns the house icon.

Gate green: ruff, ruff format, 3x tsc, eslint, prettier, knip, vitest 780,
pytest 989. Verified end to end on localdev against the real account: budget
chips re-answer (matched on REMAINING time — a 51-minute video with 2:46 left is
a ten-minute answer), the reroll walks three distinct heroes, and a Plex show
tile opens its drill-down in the Plex module.
2026-09-06 04:14:14 +02:00
peter 53b50231ff feat(e24): the Home surface read-model — hero, resume rail, comfort shelf
E24 S1. The anti-paralysis answer layer, served from our own Postgres with no
upstream call: one hero suggestion, one CROSS-SOURCE resume rail, and the user's
own comfort shelf.

Survey first, because the roadmap line was wrong about the starting point: Plex
already ships the whole trio (E5's Discover rails, including a reshuffling
Surprise me), the YouTube side ships none of it, and nothing anywhere answers
the question across both. The data already existed on both sides — VideoState
and PlexState are structurally identical, the feed has an `in_progress` filter
and a seeded shuffle, and the YT player already resumes position.

- app/discover/budget.py — the time bands. "How much time do you have"
  (10 perc / 30 perc / egy este / mindegy) replaces 15/D's mood questionnaire:
  deterministic, answerable from a column we have, and it picks the source for
  free. Matched against REMAINING time, so a film with 8 minutes left is a
  ten-minute answer. An unknown runtime fits only the unbounded band.
- app/discover/cards.py — a thin unified card that carries the NATIVE feed /
  Plex payload, so the page renders with the existing card components instead of
  a third one. `aspect` is the one new field: a rail needs to know poster from
  16:9, and that is a property of the artwork, not of the module.
- app/discover/queries.py — the SQL, reusing feedquery and plex.rollup rather
  than the Plex Discover ROUTE, whose LibraryFilters narrowing belongs to a
  surface that has a sidebar. One seed drives both halves so a reroll moves
  them together.
- app/discover/hero.py — resume -> comfort -> surprise, with the chosen tier in
  the payload so the client labels it honestly instead of guessing.
- comfort_pins (0083): five nullable CASCADE-ing FKs under num_nonnulls(...) = 1
  rather than a flag or a polymorphic string ref. A flag cannot order a shelf or
  hold a channel; a string ref would let a deleted library item leave a dead tile
  on the one surface whose whole job is to be reliable.

Two honest-state rules the tests pin: the surprise draw excludes anything
already started (the resume tier may have skipped it for not fitting, and
offering it back as "Meglepetés" would contradict the question), and which
source leads the draw follows the seed, so the Plex library can actually answer
"egy este".

peter 5703c4d713 fix(plex): a null progress timestamp must sort a rail row last, not raise
The Continue-watching and Surprise rails sorted on `(ts is not None, ts)`. That
key LOOKS null-safe and is not: two rows that both lack a timestamp compare
equal on the flag and then compare `None < None`, which raises — so a show whose
rollup has no `resumed_at`, or a movie state written before
`progress_updated_at` existed, could 500 the rail instead of sorting last.

Replaced with an explicit epoch sentinel, and named it beside the other rail
constants so the sibling rail E24 adds cannot re-derive the same broken key.

peter 013f19faca refactor(plex): move content_libs down into the query layer
The browse scope is a pure DB query with no request state, but it lived in
routes/plex/_shared.py. E24's Home surface needs the same scope from a domain
package, and a domain package importing from routes/ inverts the one-way
dependency CLAUDE.md draws.

Moved to app/plex/query.py and renamed to content_libs (public — it is a domain
helper now). Swept all five call sites and both tests in one go rather than
leaving a re-export shim: the canonical-patterns table already names the
routes.admin re-export as the anti-pattern.
