- Floor the effective max_concurrent at 1 on the read path (quota.resolve)
and in the claim SQL (GREATEST(..., 1)). admin_set_quota already floors on
write and the sysconfig default's min is 1, but a stray stored 0 (direct DB
edit) would diverge the two "at limit" checks — the SQL claim-window
exclusion can't see a user "capped" with zero running jobs, while
at_concurrency_limit can — reopening the starvation the fairness fix closes.
Keeping the effective limit >= 1 makes the two checks provably agree.
- shared_with_me now orders by (created_at DESC, id DESC) to match
list_downloads, so the newly-added 500 cap has a stable boundary among
same-timestamp shares instead of a non-deterministic one.
- 0062 upgrade loop: rename the unused loop var "table" to "_table"
(matching the underscore-marked "_col").
Test: a stored max_concurrent=0 flooder no longer wedges the claim loop.
#2 — _claim_job excluded users at their concurrency limit only in Python,
AFTER a fixed LIMIT-50 fetch window. One user flooding the queue with >50
queued jobs while at their cap filled the whole window, chosen came back None,
and every other user's work past position 50 was never seen. Exclude capped
users IN THE SQL (per-user max_concurrent from the quota row, else the
sysconfig default; unlimited users never capped), keeping the Python re-check
as a race guard that can only reject, never over-claim.
#3 — list_downloads and shared_with_me loaded every job for a user with no
bound. Cap both at 500 newest-first (a shared _MAX_LIST, matching the admin
listing's existing cap); the Download Center renders newest-first and 500 is
far beyond any real manual-download history, so no frontend change is needed.
Tests: DB-backed — a capped user's 60-job flood no longer starves a user
behind the window; oldest-by-queue_pos claim, all-capped->None, unlimited
never excluded; and the list cap bounds the result set.
Each column already leads a composite UNIQUE constraint whose btree covers
leftmost-prefix lookups on it (and the ON DELETE CASCADE reverse lookups),
so the extra single-column index=True was pure write-amplification. Drop
index=True on the 10 columns + alembic 0062 drops the existing indexes
(DROP INDEX IF EXISTS; downgrade recreates). Verified: migration up/down
round-trips on localdev (10 indexes drop, composites intact), siftlode
check green (alembic upgrade head incl. 0062 + pytest 193). The 10 do not
appear in an alembic-check model/DB diff → models and migration agree.
R12 S5 item: the feed's FINISH_MARGIN_SECONDS (10) and the Plex player's
_FINISH_MARGIN_S (30) were flagged as drifted duplicates. They are a
deliberate divergence, not drift — the feed clears a short video's resume
bar, Plex marks long-form items (movies/episodes with credits) watched.
Cross-reference + document both so it reads as intentional.
resolve_adapter matched sources by loose substring over the netloc, so a
look-alike host ('myyoutube.com', 'youtube.com.evil') misresolved. Match the
host exactly or as a subdomain via a _host_is() helper, and identify from the
netloc of BOTH source_ref and yt-dlp's webpage_url — the latter by host only,
never a substring over its path. This also restores a host signal to the
early-fill path (resolve_adapter(None, None, info)), which has no source_ref,
so a Facebook asset's uploader_url no longer depends on extractor_key being
present in the progress-hook info_dict.
Tests: look-alike hosts stay generic while real subdomains resolve; a
webpage_url netloc identifies the source when extractor_key is absent.
- resolve_adapter: identify from the yt-dlp extractor_key only, not the full
webpage_url (a sibling source's name in a URL path no longer misresolves);
add youtube-nocookie.com to the YouTube host match so nocookie embeds keep
the POT/player-client extraction strategy.
- _download: re-resolve the adapter with the post-extraction info dict so the
.nfo uniqueid type and uploader_url agree on one source (dedups the inline
resolve too).
- MediaMeta.uniqueid_type defaults to source-neutral "generic" instead of
"youtube", so an un-updated caller can never falsely label a non-YouTube
download as youtube.
- Tests: lock extractor-key-only resolution + nocookie host; default nfo type.
write_sidecars / delete_asset_files computed `base = media.with_suffix("")` and then
`base.with_suffix(".nfo")`. Stripping the real `.mp4` first leaves a stem whose own last dot may
be inside the title (e.g. "Sonka Házilag."), which `with_suffix` then treats as the extension and
clobbers — writing the .nfo/.jpg under a TRUNCATED basename that no longer matches the media, so
Plex/Kodi never associate them (and delete_asset_files targets the wrong name, leaking orphans).
Swap the extension on the FULL media path via a shared `_sidecar` helper instead.
Pre-existing bug (predates the source-adapters work); found during its E2E and folded in here.
Verified end-to-end: a dotted-title Facebook reel now writes a single shared basename.
Consolidates source-specific policy (youtube / facebook / reddit / generic) that was scattered
across worker.py, backfill.py, service.py, formats.py and storage.py with no shared source
identity. app/downloads/adapters.py holds the base (= generic yt-dlp behaviour) + per-source
overrides; resolve_adapter(source_kind, source_ref, info) picks one by source_kind, the yt-dlp
extractor_key, or the URL host, falling back to generic. yt-dlp stays the engine — the adapter is
policy only.
Moved into adapters (behaviour-equivalent):
- uploader_url derivation (YouTube channel_url / Facebook uploader_id / reddit None) — removes the
worker/backfill duplication (build_uploader_url + _should_refetch gone).
- the player-client fallback sets + retriable markers + YouTube extractor_args/POT (build_ydl_opts
now takes source-agnostic opts plus an `extra` dict from the adapter).
- source_url reconstruction (service.source_url delegates to the adapter).
Two intentional (approved) behaviour changes:
- the player-client fallback is now YouTube-only; non-YouTube sources make a single extraction
attempt instead of a pointless double attempt with youtube-only client args.
- the .nfo <uniqueid type=...> follows the source (adapter.nfo_uniqueid_type) instead of the
hardcoded "youtube" that mislabelled every url-source download.
Deliberately left generic (documented non-moves): title cleaning (normalize_title is harmless
across sources), the classify marker table, thumbnail_to_jpg, the format selectors, and og.py's
YouTube-hqdefault og:image preference (a self-contained thumbnail heuristic on the share path).
Verified end-to-end on localdev across all four adapters: downloads succeed and uploader_url + the
.nfo uniqueid type are correct per source.
- worker.py: keep an absolute wall-clock backstop for ANY still-alive child. A child that
reached a terminal state (done/error) but wedges in teardown is now killed to free the worker
slot ("abandon"), with its DB status left intact; only a still-'running' over-cap job is failed.
Previously gating the wall-clock on status=='running' let a wedged finisher loop forever (#1).
- worker.py: reconcile the claimed asset on ANY clean child exit (not only non-zero), so a child
that exits without finalizing it — e.g. an early return on a job DELETEd mid-flight — no longer
leaves the asset stuck 'downloading' until boot recovery (#2).
- worker.py: extract _stop_and_free + _fail_after_kill; the exception / stall / timeout / cancel /
shutdown / abandon paths now share one kill+free (+fail) tail instead of three copies (#3).
- tests: a wedged-finished child is killed by the wall-clock without a status change; clean exits
now assert the reconciliation no-op (#1, #4).
- worker.py: the watchdog loop now treats only 'paused'/'cancelled' (or a vanished row) as a
stop; a terminal status (done/error, or a re-queued contended asset) means the child already
wrote its outcome and is exiting, so keep polling instead of killing it. Previously a
proc.wait timeout landing between the child's terminal commit and its exit was misread as a
route-cancel and SIGKILLed a successful download (dropping its completion notification). The
stall/wall-clock/shutdown checks are now gated on status=='running' (#1, #5 test).
- worker.py: guard the crash-path _job_liveness probe so a DB blip there can't propagate (the
child is already dead; boot recovery is the backstop) (#2).
- worker.py: drop _stop_child's redundant poll guard — escalate_kill no-ops on an exited proc
and getpgid yields None for a reaped pid (#3).
- worker.py: note the extraction heartbeat is per-attempt (a single over-timeout attempt is
still killed, bounded by socket_timeout) (#4).
- worker.py: wrap the watchdog loop so a failure in it (e.g. a transient DB error in
_job_liveness) still hard-kills the child + fails the job, instead of leaving the child
running unsupervised — the exact wedge the feature prevents (#1).
- worker.py: _touch_job heartbeat bumps updated_at at each extraction attempt, so a slow /
multi-client-set fallback extraction (which writes no progress, and re-writes identical
values so ORM onupdate does not fire) is not false-killed as "stalled" (#2).
- edit.py: extract escalate_kill (terminate->wait->kill escalation); _stop and worker's
_stop_child (process-group variant) now share it (#3).
- worker.py: document the edit path's second, tighter run_ffmpeg watchdog and that the
supervisor is POSIX/Linux-container-only (#4, #6).
- tests: a long download stays alive while progress is fresh, and a watchdog-loop error
still stops the child (#1, #5).
Defense-in-depth after the ReDoS incident. The heavy work (yt-dlp download / ffmpeg edit)
now runs in a child process (app.downloads.runner) supervised by the worker thread, not in
the thread itself. A thread can't be killed and a C-level spin can't even be cooperatively
cancelled, so one wedged download used to pin a core, hold the GIL and freeze the whole
queue; a child process can be SIGTERM/SIGKILLed.
The supervisor kills the child (and its process group, so ffmpeg grandchildren die too)
when: a route pauses/cancels the job, it makes no progress for download_stall_timeout_seconds
(150s), it runs past download_wall_clock_max_seconds (2h), the worker is shutting down, or
the child crashes without setting state. On a kill it frees the asset and fails the job with
a retryable network error (stalls are not auto-requeued). A clean exit is left alone — the
child already wrote the terminal state, including a cooperative pause via the progress hook.
- config.py: stall / wall-clock / supervisor-poll / kill-grace settings.
- worker.py: _run_supervised + _spawn_download_child / _job_liveness / _stop_child /
_cleanup_staging; _process_job claims the asset, then hands the heavy work to the child.
- app/downloads/runner.py: the child entrypoint.
- docker-compose.localdev.yml: init:true on the worker so tini (PID 1) reaps orphaned
ffmpeg grandchildren left by a hard-kill (the worker reaps its own direct children).
- tests: watchdog decision logic + SIGTERM->SIGKILL escalation (fake proc, no real subprocess).
- edit.py: extract _run_ffmpeg_best_effort (one run+timeout+swallow policy shared by
thumbnail_to_jpg / ensure_poster / ensure_storyboard) + a build_thumbnail_jpg_cmd
builder, matching the module's other ffmpeg commands.
- thumbnail_to_jpg: copy an already-JPEG thumbnail (Facebook, and Reddit's jpeg-under-
a-.png-name) instead of re-encoding it; only webp/png-proper are decoded via ffmpeg.
- errors.py: drop the redundant "account authentication" classify marker
("authentication is required" already covers the known Reddit message).
- formats.py: document that the opt-in EmbedThumbnail is unaffected by dropping the
convertor (it converts unsupported thumbs to PNG, not the crashing mjpeg2jpeg path).
- test_titles.py: guard the ReDoS regression with a thread + timeout (deterministic
"must not hang") instead of a wall-clock assertion.
Three prod-observed download bugs, root-caused from a frozen prod queue with the
worker pinned at 100% CPU:
- ReDoS in normalize_title: _TRAILING_HASHTAGS had two overlapping unbounded
quantifiers around the required letter, so a Facebook title with a long hashtag
cluster that is NOT at the end ("... #a #b #c | Page") backtracked catastrophically.
It runs inside the yt-dlp progress hook holding the GIL, so one such download froze
the whole worker (and could stall feed enrichment too - sync/videos.py calls it).
Rewrite with a zero-width "has a letter" lookahead + a possessive tag body: one
unambiguous split, nothing to backtrack. 40-tag stress case: ~0.1ms.
- Reddit download killed by a cosmetic thumbnail convert: yt-dlp's
FFmpegThumbnailsConvertor runs "-bsf:v mjpeg2jpeg" on a JPEG-served-under-a-.png-name
(Reddit) and fails; being a postprocessor, it failed the WHOLE download even though
the media was fine. Drop it and produce the <base>.jpg poster/og:image ourselves via
editmod.thumbnail_to_jpg (plain ffmpeg decode->mjpeg, best-effort -> ensure_poster
cuts a frame on failure). The FB Messenger / MS Teams share preview keeps working
(posters verified as real JPEGs).
- classify: map "authentication is required" (Reddit's auth wall) to login_required
instead of unknown, so the UI explains it rather than offering a pointless retry.
Tests: ReDoS-timing + numeric-marker regression, the Reddit classify case, and
thumbnail_to_jpg (real JPEG out / None on bad input, never raises).
The R12 S3 underscore-publish left worker.uploader_url() sharing a name with the
`uploader_url` model attribute and the yt-dlp `"uploader_url"` info-dict key. The
function is now build_uploader_url() — the attribute, dict key, log line and
docstrings keep the plain `uploader_url` name. Rename touches only the def, its
two call sites, and the backfill import; no behaviour change (ruff clean,
pytest 193).
Layering cleanup, no behaviour change (ruff clean backend+scripts, pytest 193):
- Invert the scheduler->routes dependency: reset_demo_state (+ its demo-seed
helpers) move from routes/admin.py to a new service module app/demo.py.
Both routes/admin.py and scheduler.py now import it from app.demo, so the
scheduler no longer reaches into the routes layer — its lazy import (the
routes<->scheduler cycle workaround) is gone, hoisted to a top-level import.
- Publish the private symbols that were imported across module boundaries (the
underscore convention was lying): feed._serialize -> serialize,
feed._to_tsquery_str -> to_tsquery_str, videos._insert_stubs -> insert_stubs,
videos._stub_from_playlist_item -> stub_from_playlist_item,
worker._uploader_url -> uploader_url, plex._shared._item_or_404 ->
item_or_404. Scoped renames — the 5 other route modules keep their own truly
private _serialize helpers.
- _release_asset moves from routes/downloads.py to app/downloads/service.py as
the public release_asset (asset bookkeeping is a service concern); the routes
call it via service.release_asset.
Cleanup only, no behaviour change (ruff clean + pytest 193):
- keep the whole OAuth scope vocabulary together in app/auth.py: the bundles
(BASE_SCOPES/READ_SCOPES/WRITE_SCOPES/_YOUTUBE_SCOPES) move back next to the
atoms (READ_SCOPE/WRITE_SCOPE) as core; routes/auth.py imports the bundles it
needs instead of rebuilding them from the atoms.
- compact the const groups the split generator spread out (the six rate
limiters, the TTLs, the demo/scope constants) back into blocks.
R12 S2. app/auth.py (1154 lines) mixed the core auth surface with 18 HTTP
endpoints on one /auth router. Split by dependency graph:
- app/auth.py (223 lines) keeps ONLY the core surface other modules import
(current_user, resolved_user_id, admin_user, require_*, has_*_scope,
purge_user, count_admins, get_or_create_demo_user, google_enabled,
is_allowed, operator_contact, optional_current_user) plus everything it
transitively depends on.
- app/routes/auth.py (883 lines, new) gets the router + all 18 endpoints +
their endpoint-only helpers, importing the core surface from app.auth.
- main.py includes auth_routes.router (was app.auth.router).
- test_oauth_redirect imports _oauth_redirect_uri from its new home.
The STAY/MOVE partition is driven by an AST scan of the COMPLETE external
surface (every `from app.auth import` incl. multiline + `from app import
auth; auth.X`), so no still-referenced symbol was moved. Behaviour-equivalent:
every symbol relocated verbatim (get_source_segment equality), route set
proven identical, no undefined names (symtable sweep).
Gate: ruff clean (backend + scripts), pytest 193 passed.
Cleanup only, no behaviour change (ruff clean + pytest 193):
- imports hoisted above `router =` and grouped/sorted (isort) across the split
files; ruff-format pass restores the 2-blank-line PEP8 spacing the generator
collapsed to 1.
- the shared on-disk cache root moves to a neutral app/plex/cache.py, so
subtitles.py no longer imports it from imgcache.py (drops the cross-import).
- the former plex.py module docstring's access-model note (read endpoints open
to any authed user; admin endpoints test/sync) is restored in the package
__init__.py.
R12 S1 step B. The 2011-line routes/plex.py becomes an app/routes/plex/
package:
- admin.py — connection test, catalog sync, owner watch-link config (5)
- browse.py — libraries, facets, collections, playlists, show/item, people (23)
- playback.py — image/subtitle proxies, HLS streaming, watch-state writes (10)
- _shared.py — the two genuinely cross-module helpers (_item_or_404, log)
- __init__.py — assembles `router` from the three sub-routers; the app wiring
(plex_routes.router in main.py) is unchanged.
Mechanically generated and proven behaviour-equivalent: every function/class
source relocated verbatim (get_source_segment equality) and the (method, path)
route set is identical to before. Endpoints keep the /api/plex prefix on each
sub-router. No SQL change (db.query untouched; 2.0 select() is the next step).
Gate: ruff clean, pytest 193 passed (pure-logic + DB lane).
R12 S1 step A. Move the pure, leaf-level helpers out of the 2227-line
routes/plex.py into the app/plex service package with public names:
- app/plex/imgcache.py — on-disk poster/art cache + proxy (was _img_cache_*,
_image_key, _img_response, _IMG_CACHE/_IMG_SIZES). Owns the shared cache dir.
- app/plex/subtitles.py — WebVTT convert/time-shift + subtitle cache (was
_srt_to_vtt, _shift_vtt, _ffmpeg_to_vtt, _sub_cache_*, _BITMAP_SUBS).
- app/plex/rollup.py — show watch-state aggregation (was _rollup,
_show_status, _show_agg_subq, _show_state_map).
Behaviour-equivalent move: bodies verbatim, only the public API renamed and
call sites re-qualified. No endpoint or SQL change (db.query kept as-is; the
2.0 select() conversion is a later step). plex.py 2227 -> 2011 lines.
Gate: ruff clean, pytest 193 passed (pure-logic + DB lane).
- admin._decide: add an idempotency guard (409 unless status was 'pending') so a
repeat/stale approve OR deny can't re-run its side effects — now that deny emails,
this stops duplicate denial mails and a rejection mail to an already-approved user.
- SavedViewsWidget: extract runViewMutation(fn, failMsg) (returns success) — dedups
the five try/catch+refresh blocks AND lets create/rename close their input only on
success, so a failed create keeps the user's typed name.
- worker._notify_download_done: take user_id/title captured BEFORE the caller's commit
(no post-commit refresh SELECT); add a so the inbox labels an edit job
'Edit ready' instead of 'Download ready' (new inbox.editDone i18n, HU+EN).
Gate green (ruff/tsc/eslint-0/prettier/knip/vitest 79/pytest 193); smoke-tested the
saved-views + notifications surfaces render clean on a fresh dev server.
Give equal-weight actions equal-weight feedback (R11).
S1 Plex error toasts: the watched-toggles (card / season mark-all / episode /
info-panel / show mark-all) used to fail silently on 403/404/429; each now surfaces
the server reason via a shared notifyActionError() + resyncs the optimistic flip.
The playback auto-mark-watched stays intentionally silent (a mid-play toast is
noise; the next sync corrects it). New generic lib/actionErrors.ts (Plex + saved
views reuse it; notifyYouTubeActionError delegates its non-403 case to it).
S2 download-done inbox notification: worker.py emits a best-effort type=download_done
notice to the job owner on real completion (regular + edit jobs, not instant
cache-hits), rendered/localized in the inbox with an Open-Downloads link.
S3 optimistic rollbacks: SavedViewsWidget create/rename/toggle-default/remove/reorder
and the inbox revert-state no longer swallow failures — they toast + refetch to
resync (the reorder's optimistic order reverts to server truth).
S4 access-request deny: deny_invite now emails the requester (send_access_denied),
mirroring approve — no more silent limbo.
1A ChannelPage "Full history" button no longer wraps (whitespace-nowrap).
1B Extract the manager's press-and-hold priority stepper into a shared
PriorityStepper and add it to the channel detail header (subscribed, non-demo);
backend channel_detail now returns the per-subscription `priority`.
2 Unify YouTube + Plex media cards onto one look/behaviour: drop the whole-card
hover LIFT (VideoCard) — which also fixes the clipped-top bug — and instead the
inner thumbnail/poster ZOOMS on hover (both); give the flat Plex posters the same
glass-card 3D depth + accent hover border as the feed cards (shadow-md is a
transparent no-op here, so it's glass-card that provides the depth); clamp Plex
card titles to a fixed 2-line height so 1- vs 2-line titles align.
3 Nav rail is now always a slim icon-only column, flush to the left edge; each icon
reveals a floating name label on hover (Tooltip gains `always` + `openDelay`, and
a right side). Removed the pin/unpin toggle, the expand-on-hover mode and the
navCollapsed pref plumbing.
4 Scope the side-panel peek-open HOVER to the tab handle + the card (not the whole
full-height slot next to the rail), so approaching the nav no longer pops the
filter open; focus stays container-wide. useHoverFocusWithin gains a hover-out
grace period + split hover/focus handler groups.
5 Plex art backdrop fills the whole viewport (a fixed inset-0 layer behind the
transparent app) instead of only the inset <main> box.
6 Plex season binge continues across seasons: the season view's play queue now
spans the whole show (allKeys), so a season's last episode rolls into the next
season's first (seasonKeys stays for "add season to playlist").
7 When a Plex video/episode ends with nothing queued next, the player returns to
the previous page (onEnded → onClose) instead of stranding a black screen.
A full cold sync crashed and left plex_people empty (cast/people missing in
every detail view). enrich_row_people added PlexPerson rows via the ORM with no
ON CONFLICT, and because SessionLocal is autoflush=False a person shared by two
items in the same enrich batch was queued twice -> the single batch commit
violated the unique index ix_plex_people_name and rolled the whole batch back.
Prod dodged it by building up incrementally; dev hits it on every reseed+sync.
Insert missing people via an immediately-executed pg_insert with
on_conflict_do_nothing (deduped within the cast by name, keeping the first
non-null thumb), mirroring app/sync/videos.py:_insert_stubs. The immediate
execute also lets a later row in the batch see the row via the existing-names
query and skip it; the conflict guard additionally covers the concurrent
info-page enrichment path.
Adds a DB-backed regression test: two items with overlapping cast now enrich
without a unique-violation, one row per name, and a prior-NULL headshot is
back-filled. Mutation-checked (reverting the fix reddens it).
Bring the same tag control to the channel page, next to Subscribe:
- backend: GET /api/channels/{id} now returns this user's `tag_ids` for the channel
(added to _channel_detail_dict + the ChannelDetail interface), matching the manager
list shape;
- ChannelPage renders the shared ChannelTagsControl, wired to attach/detach/create with
an optimistic update on the channel-detail cache (reverting on failure) and a manager
list invalidation so a tag added here shows there too.
Reuses the R8 popover platform + ChannelTagsControl — no new tag UI.
Facebook's scraper rejected our self-hosted poster as "Corrupted Image": the poster is an
ffmpeg-produced JPEG (non-standard marker order) that browsers/iOS/Twitter decode fine but FB's
stricter processor won't. For a YouTube source, point og:image at the video's stable, non-expiring
`i.ytimg.com/vi/<id>/hqdefault.jpg` (a Google-encoded JPEG FB decodes reliably) built from the id in
the stored thumbnail — instead of the stored `sqp`-signed variant, which can expire. Non-YouTube
sources keep the poster fallback (fine everywhere but FB). Declares 480×360 so FB includes it on the
first async scrape. og.py only — no schema change.
- og: guard safe_abs_path's None (missing/gc'd poster) before _jpeg_size, else the public /watch OG
render crashed with an uncaught AttributeError
- channels: hoist the priority step button to module scope so it no longer remounts on every
hold-repeat tick (which dropped the pointer capture and could let a hold run away on pointer drift)
- watch: only route audio through Web Audio on iOS (where a backgrounded <video> is suspended);
other platforms keep their reliable native audio, avoiding a foreground-silence risk if the
AudioContext can't resume
- share: drop the unstable `create` mutation object from the auto-create effect deps (it changes
every render); the links.data trigger + autoTried ref already fire it exactly once
The clipboard-on-focus finding is intended (the user explicitly asked for auto-paste on focus; the
read is best-effort and browsers reject it without a gesture, so no real prompt fires).
The catalog only stores the recent-backfill/RSS subset of a channel's uploads (video_count is
YouTube's raw total), so a subscribed channel looked like it was "missing" videos. Now the channel
page header shows "{stored} / {total} videos" when there's a gap, and a "Full history" action queues
the deep backfill (the same deep_requested trigger the channel manager uses) — showing a loading
state until done. Backend: channel_detail now returns deep_requested/backfill_done.
The FB Sharing Debugger confirmed the real cause of the missing desktop-Messenger preview: the
scraper fetches og:image ASYNCHRONOUSLY on a URL's first scrape ("The provided 'og:image'
properties are not yet available… specify the dimensions using 'og:image:width'/'og:image:height'"),
so a freshly shared /watch link unfurled title-only. Read the poster JPEG's real dimensions from its
SOF marker (Pillow isn't a dep; the poster aspect differs from the video's, so the stored video
width/height won't do) and emit og:image:width/height. Only runs on a crawler hit. Unit-tested.
The iPad Messenger app unfurls a share link on-device (fetches + renders the OG tags itself),
but messenger.com desktop shows only what Facebook's server-side scraper cached — which is
pickier. Add og:image:secure_url (public HTTPS) and og:image:type=image/jpeg for our poster so
the card renders even when the scraper won't sniff the bytes. Reachability/stale-cache is a
separate, live-diagnosis step.
Failed downloads stored the raw yt-dlp/ffmpeg text and dumped it as a truncated red
one-liner in the queue. Classify the failure into a category (unavailable / login_required /
geo_blocked / format_unavailable / drm / postprocess / source_missing / network / unknown)
and surface it properly:
- backend: app/downloads/errors.classify maps the raw message to a category code; the worker
stores it in the new download_jobs.error_code (migration 0061) at both failure sites; resume
clears it; the serializer exposes it. Raw text kept as technical detail.
- frontend: the queue row shows a clean localized reason + a "details" link opening a modal
with the explanation, the raw text behind a disclosure, and a Retry only for transient
categories (network/postprocess/unknown).
- tests: classify() unit coverage over verbatim yt-dlp/ffmpeg message shapes.
/code-review high on S2 — 4 findings, 2 fixed, 2 no-change:
- test_plex_sync_txn: a faked PlexClient fails on the second library; asserts the
first library's row survives (per-section commit). Mutation-checked — moving the
commit back out of the loop turns it red ([] == ['1']).
- dropped the `[[quota-owns-its-session]]` memory slugs from quota.py docstrings
(a dangling private-note reference in shipped code; the reasoning is already inline).
No change: record_usage's per-call second connection is a transient spike, fine for
this app's concurrency; the two-site `with SessionLocal()` duplication isn't worth a
helper until a third caller appears.
Gate: ruff clean; DB lane 181 green.
Transaction ownership (C-A5):
- quota.record_usage / log_action write in their OWN SessionLocal(), committed
immediately, and no longer take/commit the caller's db. The spend stays DURABLE
regardless of the caller (read-only YouTube paths never commit; a failed job rolls
back) — under-counting the shared daily budget would risk overspending the real
YouTube quota — AND quota stops flushing a job's partial state mid-run behind its
own `except: db.rollback()`. units_used_today switches to a scalar SELECT so
measured()'s before/after diff sees the separate session's commits (READ COMMITTED).
Call sites updated (youtube/client.py ×3, routes/search.py ×1).
- plex sync commits PER SECTION (moved the end-of-loop commit inside), so a PlexError
on a later library keeps the ones already mirrored (idempotent; next run reconciles).
The sync jobs did NOT rely on record_usage's incidental commit for persistence — their
per-item functions (apply_rss_feed, backfill_channel_recent, import_subscriptions,
sync_user_playlists, apply_channel_autotags) all commit internally, so the in-loop
rollback handlers already isolate a failed item. No loop restructuring needed.
DB-lane tests (test_quota_ownership, 4): spend survives a caller rollback while the
caller's uncommitted row does NOT leak; accumulation; measured-style mid-txn read.
Gate: ruff clean; DB lane 180 green.
/code-review high round 1 on S1b — 5 findings, 1 fixed, 4 by-design/deferred:
- FIXED: VideoProgressIn / ItemProgressIn position_seconds & duration_seconds
typed `int` would 422 a raw float currentTime on the 10s progress checkpoint
(the old `int(payload.get(...))` truncated it). Back to `float`, truncated in
the handler; +test. The live frontend floors so this was latent, not live.
By-design / deferred (no change): the 422 detail-array isn't localized by the FE
(filed under R7); PATCH is-not-none (channels/quota, null-safe) vs model_fields_set
(nullable-clear) is a deliberate split; missing-field→422 is the point of the epic;
me/switch_account's numeric-string coercion is more correct and still session-gated.
Gate: ruff clean, pytest 172 green.
All 11 download endpoints off payload:dict. Highlights:
- admin_set_quota: AdminSetQuotaIn — the `int(payload["max_bytes"])` 500 on a
non-number is now a 422; each field set only when provided (is not None).
- profiles/enqueue/edit: CreateProfileIn / UpdateProfileIn / EnqueueDownloadIn /
EnqueueEditIn; spec/edit_spec typed as dict (non-object → 422). _resolve_spec now
takes (profile_id, spec) instead of the raw payload.
- meta/share/links: UpdateDownloadMetaIn / ShareDownloadIn / CreateLinkIn /
UpdateLinkIn; _link_expiry takes an int|None instead of digging the payload.
PATCH endpoints read model_fields_set so an explicit null still clears a field.
Gate: ruff clean, pytest 164 green.
CreatePlaylistIn / RenamePlaylistIn (PATCH via model_fields_set) / ReorderItemsIn,
plus a shared VideoRefIn(video_id) for both add-video endpoints (watch-later +
add-item). A non-string video_id is now a 422 instead of reaching db.get.
Gate: ruff clean.
- setup: SetupAdminIn (KILLS the 3rd named 500 — a non-string password reaching
argon2/len()), SetupTestEmailIn; setup_config stays a typed dict[str, Any] (a
genuinely dynamic key→value settings map, not a fixed schema).
- admin: AddInviteIn / SetRoleIn / SetSuspendedIn / AddDemoWhitelistIn. The
role/status business-rule 400s are unchanged; type errors are now 422.
All 3 ROADMAP-named 500-producers now fixed (channels priority + tag_id, setup
password). Gate: ruff clean, pytest 164 green.
- saved_views: CreateViewIn / UpdateViewIn / ReorderViewsIn. PATCH presence via
model_fields_set; filters typed as dict (a non-object is now 422, an explicit
null on update stays a 400 "filters must be an object").
- feed: VideoStateIn(status) / VideoProgressIn(position_seconds,duration_seconds) —
the manual int()+400 in progress becomes a 422 on a non-number; the status
membership 400 and the video 404 are unchanged.
Gate: ruff clean.
update_channel: payload:dict → ChannelUpdateIn (priority/hidden/deep_requested,
all optional for PATCH semantics). Kills the `int(payload["priority"])` 500 the
prod report hit — a non-numeric/garbage value now returns 422, not 500.
attach_tag: payload:dict → AttachTagIn(tag_id:int) — a non-int tag_id was a 500
in `db.get(Tag, ...)`; the personal-tag ownership check reuses owned_or_404.
Round-1 review finding #4 named only audit.py/plex.py, but the same misplaced
`from app.utils import iso` sat in channels/downloads/feed/notifications too — the
round missed them (ruff enforces no import order here, so the gate was silent).
Move them to alphabetical position for consistency. No behaviour change.
/code-review high round 1 (5 findings):
- iso(dt) now typed `date | None` — MediaAsset.upload_date is a plain `date`, not a
datetime; the helper's signature was too narrow for the type-contract epic. +test.
- restore alphabetical app.* import order in audit.py and plex.py (the new iso/_common
imports had been dropped in mid-block).
The other 3 findings are deliberate design choices, left as-is for UAT: push/push-plan
now gate write-scope before the 404 (dependency ordering); the unified 403 message; and
owned_or_404's owner_attr kept for S1b's DownloadShare.to_user_id-style owners.
Gate: ruff clean, pytest 164 green.
Establish the R6 API-contract infra before the S1b payload:dict migration:
- iso(dt) in utils.py replaces the ~16 hand-rolled `x.isoformat() if x else None`
serializer idioms across the routes.
- get_or_404 / owned_or_404 in routes/_common.py — one 404 + existence-leak policy;
plex's _own_playlist_or_404 and saved_views' _own_view now delegate to it.
- require_write_scope dependency in auth.py collapses the inline has_write_scope→403
checks (channels subscribe/unsubscribe, playlists push/push-plan) that had drifted
into three different messages into one; the conditional delete_playlist guard stays
inline (its message was already canonical).
No response-shape change (iso == isoformat for a present value). Gate: ruff clean,
pytest 163 green (+ test_utils for iso).
A mirrored Shows library whose items have no genres stored `genres` as JSON
`null` — SQLAlchemy's JSONB persists a Python None as a JSON scalar, not SQL
NULL. /facets unnested it with jsonb_array_elements_text(), which raises
"cannot extract elements from a scalar", so a single bare library 500'd the
whole Plex module on open (the grid loads, the filter sidebar's facets call dies).
- Guard the /facets genre unnest with jsonb_typeof(genres)='array', mirroring
the guard people.py already applies to the same columns.
- Persist the JSONB tag columns (genres/directors/cast_names/collection_keys on
plex_items and plex_shows) with none_as_null=True, so an empty list round-trips
as SQL NULL and self-heals on the next sync — closing the trap for any future
unnest.
Verified against the real prod row (DumaTV show, genres = JSON null): the
unguarded query errors, the guarded one returns cleanly.
Found by running the round-8 fix in the real container instead of trusting the
unit test: a directory created 2ms AFTER `_PROCESS_START` was stamped with an
mtime 2ms BEFORE it, so the sweep deleted it as a leftover. The two sides come
from different clocks — a file's mtime from the kernel's coarse clock (one timer
tick of lag), `time.time()` from the fine one — and the unit test could not see it
because it supplies an artificial cutoff.
The window is small and lands exactly where it hurts: the sweep runs at boot, so
the session at risk is one started in the first instants after startup — the case
the guard exists for. Keep-side slack of 2s; the cost is that a leftover from the
last seconds before a restart survives until the next one.
Verified in the container: a backdated leftover is swept, a directory created by
this run is kept, and a registered live session with an old mtime is kept — 1 of 3.
Test pins the skew (mutation-checked: with the grace at 0 it goes red).
The worst one was, again, the previous round's own fix.
- Round 7 stopped awaiting the HLS sweep so startup could serve immediately — which
also made it run CONCURRENTLY with playback, and `sweep_orphans` snapshotted the
live-session set BEFORE listing the root and rmtree'd outside the lock. Since
`start_session` reuses a directory path for the same (key, offset, tag), a stale
name can become a live session at any moment. Two guards now: nothing whose mtime
is newer than this process's start is ever deleted, and the live check + rmtree
happen together under the lock, one directory at a time.
- The sweep task is awaited after cancel, so shutdown can't leave it pending.
- `_rate_limiter` used a truthiness test on its timestamp, so a `now()` of exactly
0.0 read as "never ran" — unreachable in production, but `now` exists to be
injected and a test clock starting at 0 is the obvious choice.
- The RSS total-outage error now carries the first underlying error: "all N channels
failed" is also what ONE dead feed id looks like on a small instance, and a red
card the user can't act on is its own kind of dishonest.
- The WebKit fullscreen handling moved into `lib/fullscreen` and PlexPlayer uses it
too — it had the same unprefixed-only reads in three places, including an Escape
branch that would have closed the whole player instead of leaving fullscreen.
- The `--max` CSS comment claimed `inset: 0` did the sizing; Tailwind's `w-full` is
still on the element and wins. Comment now states the real mechanism.
Verified in real Chrome (the pane can't composite or do native fullscreen):
- F fills the 1920x889 viewport; the exit pill renders top-right on the letterbox
band and overlaps NO YouTube control — the collision this round suspected does not
reproduce in this embed (its own buttons sit bottom-left / bottom-right).
- Four real ArrowDown presses while maximised: persisted volume 100 -> 80, with the
level flash visible on screen.
- A real click on the exit pill un-maximises and returns focus to the card.
- lib/fullscreen driven from a real click: enter (innerHeight 889 -> 1024), the
change listener fires exactly once per transition, exit returns to 889.
Backend suite 150 -> 158; the new sweep tests are mutation-checked, and they read
their cutoff from the filesystem rather than a clock (the container VM and the
bind-mounted host disagree by enough to make a clock-based assertion flaky).
Five of them sit where round 6 turned F from a Fullscreen API call into a CSS
maximise: the guards around it still asked `isFullscreen`, which that pivot made
permanently false.
- Arrow-key volume was dead in the maximised view: the scroll-deference checked
only `isFullscreenRef`, so the (now hidden but still scrollable) card kept
swallowing Up/Down. Both flags now count as "the video fills the screen".
Measured: 87px of scroll room on the focused card, ArrowDown moves 80 -> 75
and scrolls nothing.
- The maximised view had no way out once the pointer touched the video. Reaching
YouTube's controls means clicking into the cross-origin iframe, which takes
keyboard focus with it, and the re-arm paths (stage mouseleave, window focus)
need the pointer to leave the browser entirely while the stage fills it. So
the exit now lives on screen, in our DOM: a button that un-maximises AND pulls
focus back, re-arming every shortcut.
- WebKit fires only `webkitfullscreenchange`/`webkitFullscreenElement`, so on
Safari/iPadOS YouTube's own fullscreen never registered — no overlay yield, no
focus reclaim. One `fullscreenEl()` reader, both event spellings.
- The stage claimed `z-index: 9999`, the glass tuner's reserved level, for a job
that only needs to beat the modal chrome it is nested in (its siblings top out
at z-menu). Dropped to rail-level; nothing escapes the modal's stacking
context either way.
- `inset: 0` already sizes a fixed layer — the inherited `100vw`/`100vh`
over-constrained it, which is how a classic scrollbar gets a horizontal
overflow and a mobile URL bar hides the bottom edge (YouTube's control bar).
- The shortcut hint still promised "F: fullscreen" in both locales.
Backend, both "the fix stopped one layer short":
- The startup HLS sweep was awaited inside lifespan, so uvicorn still served
nothing until it finished — a thread doesn't help when nothing is listening
yet. Fire-and-forget task instead, cancelled on shutdown. Measured with 200
planted segments: "Application startup complete" now precedes "swept 1".
- An RSS poll where every channel failed returned normally, so the scheduler
recorded `ok` with the outage buried in the summary string. `failed == total`
now raises: a run that reached nothing is a failed run.
Suites: backend 147 -> 150.
