The 43 react-refresh/only-export-components warnings the gate let through meant an edit to a
provider (or AnchoredPopover, Toaster, plexDetailUi, …) could not be hot-swapped: Fast Refresh
reloads a module that also exports hooks or helpers.
- Each provider's contexts, the types its hooks return and the hooks themselves live in a sibling
context module (navigationContext.ts, channelsContext.ts, …); the provider file keeps the
component. loadAccountFilters moved next to the feed filters' defaults (feedFiltersInit.ts),
following navigationInit/playlistsInit.
- Helpers that sat in component files have their own modules: welcomeMode, downloadTitle,
plexPlayable, channelSync, ui/anchoredPopoverHooks, ui/pageToolbarSlot, ui/pagerContent,
ui/toastLevels, ui/overlayOrder, ui/tableAlign, lib/plexDetail; the cells of the channel columns
and the registry's page wrappers are components files of their own (channelCells, modulePages).
- usePersistedTab, an alias of useAccountPersistedState, is gone; its callers use the original.
npm run lint is now eslint --max-warnings 0, so a warning fails the gate like an error does.
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.
Second sweep, 34 more sites: NotificationsPanel (14 -- eight identical
accent text links, three ghost icon buttons, two ghost text actions),
Welcome's five auth links, KeyGate, Messages, NavSidebar, ChatThread,
ShareDialog, ChannelPage, PlexPlaylistView, PlexPlaylistAdd,
PlexCollectionEditor and plexViews.
Moves the font-weight out of Button's BASE and into each variant, so the
`link` variant can be semibold (which is what every text link in this app
looks like) while the action variants stay medium, and no element can end
up with two font-* utilities.
Welcome is the one signed-out surface this session cannot see, so only
its byte-identical link swaps were taken; its primary submit and the
bg-card button family are left for a pass that can UAT the screen.
3x tsc, eslint, knip, prettier, 689 vitest green; UAT on Notifications,
Messages and the nav rail, clean console in a fresh tab.
The app HAS a platform layer -- AnchoredPopover (22 importers, with
arrows/typeahead/Escape/anchor-flip), QueryState (21), Modal (17),
PageShell, DataTable, Tabs, Tooltip and ~26 more -- but it sat flat among
~160 feature components with nothing marking it as one. Several of those
files describe themselves as 'the one place' or 'canonical' and were
still bypassed by hand-rolled markup, because a layer nobody can see is a
layer nobody uses; three separate inventory passes of this codebase
misread it the same way.
Moves the 33 domain-free modules into components/ui/, rewrites the
imports in 89 files, and makes the boundary a lint rule rather than a
convention: inside ui/ a one-level-up import (a feature component) and
any lib/api slice are errors. The rule was verified to fire on both and
to leave generic lib/ helpers alone. README.md states which side of the
line a component belongs on and why.
No behaviour change: 3x tsc, eslint, knip, prettier and 687 vitest tests
all green; no backend file touched.
An account can now hold two true addresses: the one its owner typed, which a Google
sign-in no longer overwrites, and the one Google answers with. Only the first was
stored, so Settings could say 'Connected' without saying connected AS WHOM -- exactly
what someone who registered with a +tag needs to know.
users.google_email (migration 0080) records Google's answer at sign-in and at an
in-app link. /api/me exposes it ONLY when it differs from the account address, so the
comparison lives in one place and the majority, whose two addresses are the same
string, see no change at all. Rendered in the account menu as a muted third line under
the identity, and in the Settings sign-in row under the existing hint.
A short 'Google' label rather than a brand glyph: the app draws one icon set (lucide),
and a generic mail icon next to an email address says nothing. It also reads to a
screen reader, which an unlabelled logo would not.
No backfill is possible -- Google's answer is only known at sign-in -- so accounts
linked earlier stay NULL until their owner next signs in with Google.
- Extract the optimistic + debounced-flush feed-priority flow into a shared
useChannelPriority hook (mirrors useChannelTagActions); the manager and the
channel-detail page now share it instead of two drifting copies.
- NavSidebar: drop the always-true `slim` const and its dead expanded-rail
branches; refresh the now-stale pinned/collapsible comments.
- Remove the orphaned `navCollapsed` localStorage key (no readers/writers left
after the always-slim rail).
- Channel page: drop the wrapper native `title` that duplicated PriorityStepper's
own Tooltip.
The keyboard-focus nav-label finding needed no change: the popover platform
already wires useFocus (visibleOnly), so a real Tab press shows the flyout label
(verified in-browser).
Follow-ups on the 7-item batch:
- The slim nav slot was still w-20 while its card is w-14, leaving a ~24px dead
gap the filter tab/bar couldn't dock against. Slot is now w-14 (exactly the
card width), so the filter's flat-left tab sits flush on the rail's right edge
(measured gap 0), both collapsed and expanded.
- The Plex art backdrop was invisible: a position:fixed layer at z-index -1 is
painted BEHIND the body's opaque background here, so nothing showed. Paint the
art on the app root (#root) instead — it's exactly the viewport and a real
ancestor of the transparent nav/header/content, so the art fills the whole page
edge-to-edge and the glass chrome floats over it (verified in-browser).
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.
The ~14 hand-rolled "this is the selected/current/active one" idioms each
repeated the same `sel ? "bg-accent text-accent-fg border-accent" : "…"` inline
ternary, which had drifted. Three attribute-driven recipes in @layer components
now own that paint, keyed on the ARIA the control already carries: .pill
(aria-pressed segments/toggles), .is-current (aria-current nav/list items), and
.chip / .chip-solid (tag & filter tokens). The JSX just toggles the ARIA; the CSS
paints, so one control's selected look can't diverge from the next's. No
focus-visible in the recipes — the @layer base rule already rings every button/a.
Migrated 15 sites (Feed show/content, Channels tag filter, Sidebar or-and +
scope, PlexSidebar match, Tabs, SettingsPanel tab-rail, PlexPlaylistView layout
[soft], NavSidebar nav + settings, ActiveFilterChips, PlexSidebar RemovableChip,
ChannelTags, ChannelPicker). Deliberately left: PlexSidebar facet Chip and
PlexPlaylistView already covered; SavedViews row (paint split across two
elements), the scheme swatch (border-only on a coloured swatch), and
ChannelPicker's option rows (text-only selection) — noted for a follow-up.
The ~124 px-frozen text-[Npx] labels didn't track the Settings font-scale slider
while their rem-sized neighbours did. Add text-2xs (0.6875rem) / text-3xs
(0.625rem) font-size-ONLY tokens (no paired line-height -> matches the arbitrary
they replace, zero vertical-rhythm shift) and codemod every text-[Npx] to a rem
class (rare 8/9/12/13px -> rem arbitraries).
Also: --hdr-h 68px -> 4.25rem so header content clears the rem-sized pills at
scale 1.3 instead of sliding under; NavSidebar/SidePanel slot widths + their
icon/badge px sizes go rem so the rails keep pace with their (now-scaling)
labels; a w-24/h-[54px] thumb -> h-13.5 to preserve 16:9 at scale. Media
thumbnails, page-width caps and fixed container widths deliberately stay px.
Verified via getComputedStyle at scale 1.06/1.3: text-2xs 11.66->14.3px, header
clearance 72->88px, nav slot 246->302px — all scale proportionally.
- #1: remove the 9 dead `shadow-*` from glass surfaces instead of letting them override the tuned glass
box-shadow. The @layer components move made a JSX shadow-* win AND atomically drop the glass inset
top-edge highlight; deleting the (always-dead) utilities keeps the intended glass depth incl. the
inset sheen. Verified in-browser: a .glass box-shadow again includes its inset segment.
- #3: drop the per-element focus-visible outlines from the rail chrome buttons and SavedViews action
buttons — the global button:focus-visible fallback already draws the identical 2px accent ring, so
they were redundant. Verified: the pin button rings from the global rule alone.
- #5: unify the focus-within outline offset (offset-2) on the SearchBar and ShareDialog pills.
- #2 (double outline on the pill when an inner button is focused): NOT fixed — the clean fix
(has-[input:focus] so only the input rings the pill) does not generate under Tailwind v4 (measured:
no rule emitted). Kept the working focus-within, which is a11y-correct (every element still shows a
focus indicator); the overlapping ring is an accepted cosmetic edge-case.
- #4 (weak ring on solid-fill selected items): deferred to R10 with the selected-paint tokenisation.
Gate green (tsc/eslint/prettier/knip/vitest 79).
- Global :focus-visible fallback (@layer base): one accent outline for keyboard users on every
button/link/[role=button]/[role=tab]/summary that doesn't define its own. Non-input controls had no
visible keyboard focus app-wide; this closes the void with a single rule. More specific focus styles
(.selectable, an input's focus:ring, a menu item's data-active highlight) override it.
- PopoverItem now carries outline-hidden so menu items keep their data-active highlight without also
drawing the global outline (no double ring).
- Nav rail rows adopt .selectable (via rowBase); rail chrome buttons (logo/pin/about/sign-out) get a
focus-visible ring; the settings row already uses rowBase. Deduped the account trigger's selectable.
Deferred to R10: the chip/pill selected-PAINT unification (a .chip/.pill/.is-current repaint of the
~14 selection idioms) — the R10 token redefinition repaints those surfaces anyway, at less risk than a
hand migration now. R9's job (the focus/a11y foundation) is complete.
Verified: tsc/eslint/prettier/knip/vitest (79) green; browser computed-style confirms the global ring
renders (2px accent, offset 2px) on a plain button, .selectable overrides it with an inset ring, and
an outline-hidden menu button draws no global outline.
S1 — recipe foundation:
- Move .glass/.glass-card/.glass-menu into @layer components so a JSX shadow-* utility overrides the
glass box-shadow again; the ~9 dead shadow-* on glass surfaces (modals, menus, save-bar, chat) now
paint their intended drop-shadow. Perf-mode and :hover overrides stay unlayered so they still win.
- Add a .selectable recipe: the hover tint menu/list rows already use, PLUS the app-wide
focus-visible ring that was missing on non-input controls (the biggest a11y gap).
- Split the popover roving highlight from the selected state (AnchoredPopover): a selected/checked
PopoverItem now gets a ring ONLY, so its resting paint (bg-accent fill / text-accent / checkbox)
survives being highlighted instead of downgrading to a 35% tint or being recoloured. Fixes the 4
review findings deferred from R10-S0 generically; drops the leftover per-consumer data-active ring
in tableHeader.
S2 — worst offenders:
- Account-menu trigger + switch/add/sign-out rows adopt .selectable (visible keyboard focus).
- Saved-views rows: group-focus-within reveals the hover-only action buttons for keyboard users;
aria-current on the active row; focus-visible ring on every button.
- The 3 invisible-focus inputs get an accent focus ring: SearchBar + ShareDialog via focus-within on
the glass pill/row, AboutCell via focus-visible on the trigger.
Deferred to a later R9 sprint: the full unification of all ~14 selection idioms, a shared <NavItem>,
and .is-current/.chip recipes (no consumer yet in this pass).
Verified: tsc/eslint/prettier/knip/vitest (79) green; browser computed-style checks confirm the glass
shadow now wins, the focus outlines render (2px accent), and the split renders (selected ring-only,
unselected fill).
The column filter panel, the nav's account panel and the header's sync read-out are
mixed content with their own tab order rather than lists of choices, so they migrate as
`dialog` popovers — trapping and returning focus, dismissing through the shared layer
stack instead of their own document listeners.
The column filter needed a structural change: its open state lived in the header row
while the panel rendered per column, which cannot work when the platform anchors a panel
to its own trigger. Funnel and panel are now one module-level component (module-level
still matters — declaring it inline once remounted the popover on every keystroke, which
broke the caret and IME composition). That retires three hand-rolled focus chores at
once: capturing the trigger element at open time because a per-column ref nulled out
before focus could return, the effect that stopped Escape stranding focus on <body>, and
the useDismiss registration that had to include the trigger so its own mousedown did not
close-then-reopen the panel.
The filter also stops being one undifferentiated panel: a text filter is a dialog whose
input takes initial focus, while the select and multi filters are real menus with roving
focus — select as radios, multi as checkboxes.
`menuitemcheckbox` is new to the platform, and the two existing multi-select toggle lists
(channel tags, add-to-playlist) move onto it as well: several tags or playlists can be on
at once, so they were never one exclusive choice. Role-only change, no interaction
difference.
Verified in-browser: all three anchor exactly where their hand-rolled placement did,
Escape closes and returns focus to the trigger, the text filter keeps focus and caret
position while typing narrows the table, and the multi filter opens as a checkbox menu
with roving focus.
Extend lib/queryKeys.ts to the remaining ~34 key roots and migrate every
remaining literal (queryKey: [...] AND the positional useLiveQuery keys) in
36 files. All ~200 React Query keys across the app now route through the
factory; zero raw key literals remain outside queryKeys.ts.
The heterogeneous composite plex keys (plex-library/facets/collections/
playlists carry a filters object, a ratingKeys array, or a union/group
discriminator) take a variadic pass-through — the factory centralizes the
ROOT string; single-id keys stay precisely typed. Nullable keys (thread,
playlist, ytSearch) accept null so a null segment is preserved.
Pure substitution — byte-identical key arrays, so TanStack prefix matching
is unchanged. Gate green: typecheck (app+node+e2e), eslint (0 err),
prettier, 68 vitest. Runtime-verified on a fresh dev server: Feed + Plex
modules load, feed/facets/tags/my-status/plex-library/plex-facets/
plex-collections/plex-playlists all 200, full UI renders.
Prettier 3 (pinned), printWidth 100, double quotes — chosen to match the existing
hand-formatting and minimise reflow. This commit is ONLY the mechanical format pass
(`prettier --write`) plus the config/ignore/scripts, isolated so it never pollutes a
feature diff. Verified behaviour-neutral: typecheck, eslint (0 errors), and vitest
all green before and after. See .git-blame-ignore-revs — `git blame` skips this sha.
Extend lib/modules.ts into an ordered ModuleDef registry (id/label/icon/
system/badge/gate) as the single source for the nav rail and the header
stepper. Absorb NavSidebar's per-page ICON map; derive moduleOrder /
moduleLabelKey / SYSTEM_PAGES from the one array. Render still on the App
ternary — this is the scaffold S6b.3 will drive from. (Platform S6b.1)
Replace ~48 magic z-index values (z-10..z-[9999] + 2 inline zIndex) with named
tailwind zIndex tokens (base/menu/chrome/paneltab/panel/rail/overlay/popover/
tooltip/tuner). Values are UNCHANGED — a rename, not a renumber — so layering is
identical; the names give one source of truth for the stack.
VideoCard/PlayerModal read openChannel from useNavigationActions (the memo'd
VideoCard subscribes to the STABLE actions context, so a page/channel change
no longer re-renders it); NavSidebar/Header read page/setPage; ChannelPage
reads closeChannel; NotificationsPanel reads setPage. App sheds the matching
props, and Feed/VirtualFeed no longer thread onOpenChannel at all.
Locks the five flows the refactor must not break (feed, channel, player,
settings, nav) so later sprints can prove they changed nothing. Adds a thin
data-testid layer and a dedicated seeded non-demo account; the suite runs on
the baked :8080 stack (authoritative) or :5173. No product-behaviour change.
The rail spent a two-row block plus a divider on per-user sync status. It's
global, not per-module, so it now rides the right end of the floating header as
a pill: the headline count at a glance, an accent dot when something wants you
(paused / missing history), and the counts, state, the channel-manager link and
pause in a popover.
Frees the rail's whole top block. Also drops SyncStatus's two now-dead layouts:
"bar" was a leftover of the top bar removed in 0.42.0, and "rail" lost its only
caller here — the component is chip-only, ~60 lines lighter, and the popover
reuses useDismiss.
The peek handlers sat on the rail's layout slot, which is 80px wide while the
card it holds is only 56px — so the card's own margin was a live hover zone with
nothing visible in it. Leaving the filter tab or panel to the left put the
cursor straight into it and the rail popped open unprompted; the gap between the
two hover zones was literally 0px. Moving the handlers onto the card leaves a
16px no man's land (x=69..85) where neither opens.
The rail's hover/focus-to-peek logic — including the portal-proof focus tracking
(React-tree onFocus/onBlur plus a safety net for portals that unmount while
focused) — is about to be needed verbatim by the side panels. Lift it to
useHoverFocusWithin now that a second consumer exists. No behaviour change.
Opening the language switcher (or the account popover) and then dismissing it
left the unpinned rail stuck expanded. Those menus are portaled and unmount
while focused, and browsers fire no blur when a focused node is removed — so the
wrapper's onBlur never arrived and `focused` stayed true forever.
Keep the React-tree onFocus/onBlur (portals bubble through it, which is what
correctly holds the rail open while its own menu has focus) and add a safety net
for the one case they miss: when focus has landed nowhere, clear it.
The rail now sits slim by default and expands to a labelled overlay on hover
or keyboard focus without pushing content; the manual toggle became a pin
(pinned = the old in-flow expanded rail). The header no longer reserves a fixed
504px left offset — it's absolutely positioned inside the content column, so it
tracks the actual left zone and reclaims the dead gap. The role badge is gone;
role now shows via a title tooltip on the username, and a logout quick-button
joins the language/about cluster.
Replace the full-height filter rails with one shared floating glass SidePanel
used by Feed, Plex and Playlists. Each collapses to a slim tab beside the nav;
its sections are reorderable "islands" (drag / hide / per-group collapse) with a
per-panel saved layout; the body hides its scrollbar with a soft top/bottom edge
fade. The nav rail becomes a matching floating rounded card.
- New shared SidePanel / PanelGroup / PanelGroups + useScrollFade hook.
- Generalise the feed-only sidebarLayout into a per-panel panelLayout (feed keeps
its storage key; plex/playlists get their own; persisted per account).
- Lift the Playlists rail to App level (selected playlist is now App state) so it
floats and collapses like the filter rails; remove the old CollapsedFilterRail.
- The floating top header's fixed offset accounts for the panels' margins.
Replace the full-width top bar with a fixed floating header of glass pills: a
fixed-position ModuleName (accent dot + label + prev/next cyclic module stepper)
and a shared SearchBar. The header's left edge is anchored as if the nav rail
and filter sidebar were both open, so it never shifts on collapse or module
change; the right edge leaves a 10% margin.
- ModuleName label width is measured live from the reachable modules' titles in
the current language, recomputing on a language or account change.
- Module names come from a shared moduleLabelKey (the same short labels as the
nav rail); NavSidebar and the header now read from one source (lib/modules.ts).
- The arrows step cyclically through moduleOrder(me) — dynamic, no hard-coded
targets, wrapping at both ends.
- Search is hoisted into the SearchBar for feed (YouTube search), plex, channels
(including the Discovery tab) and playlists (new); Go button, Enter triggers it.
- The Playlists left rail now reaches the top; header clearance via --hdr-h.
Resolves the deferred clearDevice security gap: logout never removed the E2EE
private key from IndexedDB, so on a shared machine the conversations stayed
decryptable after sign-out (ChatDock auto-unlocks from the persisted key next
visit). Per the user's decision (clear on EVERY logout), NavSidebar.logout() now
awaits e2ee.clearDevice(me.id) before reload — guarded so an IndexedDB failure
(e.g. private mode) can never block the logout. Re-entering the message
passphrase is required on the next visit.
Resolves the Phase-1 NEEDS-DECISION #3 (clearDevice) + retires the last e2ee
unused export (knip now only flags loadDefaultViewFilters). tsc green, re-review
clean (found + fixed an idb-open throw path blocking logout).
Per user feedback: promote Plex from a hidden feed-Source option to a first-class
left-nav module, with its own filter sidebar and the shared top search box.
- Plex is now a nav-rail module (page='plex', gated on me.plex_enabled) — its own
page → correct browser Back/Forward; removed the Feed Source-dropdown 'plex' hack.
- PlexSidebar.tsx: left filter column (library scope, watch-state for movies:
all/unwatched/in_progress/watched, sort) — per-account persisted (App state).
- Header search box now also serves the Plex page (integrated search); the live
YouTube-search escalation stays feed-only.
- PlexBrowse.tsx reworked: infinite scroll (IntersectionObserver, no 'Load more'),
content-visibility for smoother long-list scroll, show drill-down rides history
(useHistorySubview) so Back returns to the grid; dropped the stray 'YouTube feed'
button on the show page.
- backend /browse gains a per-user watch-state filter (show=, movies only).
- plex i18n (navLabel + filter.*) en/hu/de.
Note: episode-title 'Episode N' on some shows (e.g. Westworld) is Plex-side
(unmatched show) — we mirror what Plex has; Match/Refresh in Plex + re-sync fixes it.
Lighthouse a11y across the authenticated module pages flagged: the clickable
Siftlode logo had aria-label='Feed' (accessible name didn't include its visible
text); the shared Switch, theme swatches, sort selects and several number/range
inputs had no accessible name/label. Give Switch role='switch'+aria-checked and
an optional label (passed at every call site), aria-label the swatches, selects
(feed/playlists sort) and the settings/config/scheduler inputs, and drop the
mismatched logo aria-label so its visible text is the name. All 11 module pages
now score 100 accessibility (settings 86->100, playlists 89->100, others 92-95->100).
Session-close cosmetics:
1. Favicon — an 'S' monogram (indigo→violet rounded square, path-drawn so it's font-independent)
at public/favicon.svg, linked in index.html (tab had none before).
2. Dynamic document.title — reflects the current module ('Downloads · Siftlode'); Feed = brand
only; an open channel page shows the channel name. Shared pageTitleKey() in lib/pageMeta.ts
keeps the tab title and the top-bar header in lockstep.
3. The 'Siftlode' logo already navigated to Feed but read as static text — added a hover
background + cursor affordance so it's clearly clickable.
4. Module header — new shared PageTitle component (used by every non-feed module via Header) with
a tracked small-caps 'eyebrow' + leading accent dot (user-picked style B), styled in one place.
Verified in a real browser: favicon served (image/svg+xml), title updates per module, logo→feed,
header restyled; no console errors.
A tab that never explicitly picked an account rode the session's default, so when ANOTHER
tab changed that default (adding or switching an account), this tab silently swapped identity
on its next refetch — the account chip updated while the feed/saved-views lagged until reload.
- Pin every tab to whatever account it first loaded as (write the sessionStorage override on
load when none is set), so its requests always carry its own account header and cross-tab
default changes can't reach it.
- 'Add account' now clears this tab's pin before the Google redirect, so on return the tab
adopts the freshly-added account (and pins that) — the current tab switches to it while other
tabs keep their own, matching the Gmail add-account model.
Two tabs in one browser can now run two different signed-in accounts at once.
- The signed session cookie stays the browser's account WALLET (account_ids). Which account a
given tab acts as is a per-tab choice held in sessionStorage and sent per-request via the
X-Siftlode-Account header; current_user honours it only for an account already in the wallet,
without mutating the cookie's default account. Switching accounts sets the header + reloads
THIS tab only, instead of the old cookie-wide switch that changed every tab.
- WebSocket can't send headers, so the per-tab account rides in the ?account= query param
(validated against the wallet).
- Logout is per-tab aware: it signs the requesting tab's active account out of the wallet
(promoting a new default only if the removed one was the default), and the tab drops its
override. A stale per-tab header account 401s just that tab instead of clearing the session.
- Serve index.html with Cache-Control: no-cache so a deploy's new hashed bundle is picked up
immediately instead of the browser running a heuristically-cached stale index.html.
Restructure the app shell into three top-level columns:
- The per-user sync status (video counts + live sync state) moves from the top bar to a
compact block at the top of the left nav rail (icon-only with a tooltip when collapsed).
- The feed's Mine/Library scope toggle moves to the top of the filter sidebar.
- The filter sidebar becomes a full-height sibling column with its own collapse control
(a thin rail carrying the active-filter count), mirroring the nav rail. The top bar is
now just the feed search / page title.
- Both panels' collapsed state is persisted to the user's preferences (server-side, so it
follows the account across devices), seeded from a localStorage cache to avoid a flash.
Default: both panels open.
- A clearer 'Admin' section header (thicker centred rule when collapsed) above the
admin-only modules (Scheduler/Configuration/Users), replacing the faint hairline.
- A small role chip (admin/user/demo) next to the account name — an avatar-corner dot
when the rail is collapsed.
Switching accounts does location.reload(), which preserves history.state — so the new
account re-mounted the Messages module from the previous account's _sub sub-view, whose
partnerId belongs to the OLD identity (often the new account's own id → an empty
self-thread). Symptom: after switching to the recipient you land on a blank thread and
the just-received message never shows (F5 keeps history.state); only going back to the
list and reopening the real conversation works.
Fix: (1) strip _sub/_ov from history.state before the switch reload so the new account
starts at the module root; (2) guard Messages so a thread view with partnerId === meId
falls back to the conversation list (can't message yourself).
- errorDialog + hints now use createStore (drop their bespoke listener arrays).
- theme/sidebarLayout/notifications/App filters/Playlists plSort use readMerged/
readJSON/writeJSON instead of inline try/JSON.parse/catch.
- Stats, SettingsPanel and App's channel filter/view tabs use usePersistedState
(the 3 sites that reinvented usePersistedTab inline).
- Every siftlode.* key now sourced from the LS registry (no scattered literals).
Move messaging out of the notification center into its own left-nav module
(own page, own unread badge), so a reload returns to it and notifications stay
separate. Add a Messenger-style floating dock (bottom-right): pop a conversation
out from the page, keep chatting across navigation, minimise (rollup) or close.
- Messages is now a routed page; NotificationsPanel reverts to inbox-only and the
nav badge no longer mixes in messages.
- Extract shared KeyGate + ChatThread (used by both the page and dock windows);
e2ee exposes a shared unlock subscription so page and dock agree.
- ChatDock (always mounted for human users) owns the app-wide live-message
subscription and per-device key restore. EN/HU/DE strings.
A Messages tab in the notification center (hidden for demo): set up secure
messaging with a passphrase (key generated + wrapped in-browser via WebCrypto,
stored non-extractable per device), unlock on other devices, then chat with
end-to-end encrypted, live-delivered messages. The server-authored Siftlode
welcome is readable before any key setup.
- lib/e2ee.ts: ECDH P-256 + HKDF + AES-GCM, PBKDF2-wrapped key, IndexedDB.
- lib/messagesSocket.ts: WebSocket client with backoff reconnect.
- Messages.tsx: key gate, conversation list with decrypted previews, directory,
thread with client-side decrypt + encrypt-on-send. Unread feeds the nav badge.
EN/HU/DE strings.
New admin-only Users page (sidebar): Users & roles (list + promote/demote with
confirm; self/demo/last-admin guarded server-side), plus the Access requests
(Invite whitelist) and Demo whitelist+reset migrated out of Settings → Account
(same data/tables — UI relocated only). Settings → Account now holds personal
content only. ConfigPanel learns a boolean field type (toggle) for the new
allow_registration setting. api methods, new 'users' page/route/nav/header, and
EN/HU/DE strings (new users namespace + access group).
New admin-only Configuration page that renders the system_config registry grouped
(Email/SMTP first), with per-field save/reset, write-only encrypted secret fields
(disabled with a hint when TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY is unset), and a Send-test-email
button. New 'config' page + sidebar nav item + header title; api methods and
EN/HU/DE strings.
The Settings > Sync tab moves into the Stats module: Stats is now a per-user
page (Overview tab = sync status + your own API usage + manual actions) with the
admin instance-wide quota dashboard + background-sync pause as an admin-only
System tab. The Stats nav item is visible to all users (was admin-only); the
Settings Sync tab is removed. Sync i18n strings move from settings.sync.* to
stats.sync.* (EN/HU/DE).
Fold the client-side transient bell into the inbox page so there's a single
notification indicator. The inbox now has two groups — "System" (durable,
server-backed) and "Activity" (client-side events with their Unhide/Unwatch/
Find-in-feed actions) — and the nav badge sums both unread counts. The separate
rail bell (NotificationCenter) is removed.
Activity items get a per-item clear (X) alongside the global Clear all. Unhiding
or unwatching a video from anywhere — a card, the toast's Undo, or the inbox —
now quietly resolves the original "Hidden/Watched X" entry (no duplicate "Unhidden
X" toast, no stale entry with a dead action), via a new resolveVideo store helper.
Show the unread count as a number on the collapsed nav rail (not just a dot), and
invert the badge colours on the active row so it isn't an accent-on-accent red blob;
centre the number on the circle.
Add a server-backed notification center that coexists with the client-side
transient bell: a per-user `notifications` table (type/title/body/data JSON/
read/dismissed), a `/api/me/notifications` CRUD API (list, unread_count, read,
read_all, dismiss, clear), and a left-nav inbox module with a live unread badge
polled via useLiveQuery. Known types render trilingual text from type+data
(English stored text is the fallback); read rows are trimmed past a soft cap.
Also adds the schema the maintenance job builds on: videos.list?part=status
columns (embeddable/privacy_status/upload_status) and the validation lifecycle
columns (last_checked_at, unavailable_since, unavailable_reason).
Page-id validation is centralized in one PAGES source of truth (isPage) so the
new page survives reload without a second allowlist to keep in sync.
- Split the rail into a content group (Feed/Channels/Playlists) and an admin
group (Stats/Scheduler) separated by a divider (system group hidden for non-admins).
- Move the language switcher, About and notification bell out of the top header
into an icon cluster above Settings (horizontal expanded, vertical collapsed).
Their popovers portal to <body> and anchor right + above the button, escaping the
nav's backdrop-filter. About is removed from the account popover (now in the cluster).
- LanguageSwitcher/NotificationCenter gain a 'rail' variant for the above.
- Also relocate the Toaster mount into the (now relative) content column.
New admin Scheduler page (left-nav entry) with a live, self-refreshing view of
job activity, queued work and quota. Polling is factored into a reusable
useLiveQuery hook (pauses when the tab is unfocused) that the notification bell
and future yt-dlp job queue will reuse instead of re-implementing.
Track every account that completes OAuth in a browser session (session 'account_ids',
~14-day cookie), so the user can switch between them without another Google round-trip.
New GET /api/me/accounts (switchable accounts, active flagged) and POST /api/me/switch
(guarded: target must be in the session list — proof it signed in here — and re-checked
against is_allowed in case the invite was revoked). Logout now signs out the active
account and falls back to the most recent remaining one, else clears the session. UI: the
account popover lists the other signed-in accounts (click to switch, reloads) plus an
'Add another account' action (-> /auth/login, which uses prompt=select_account).
Trilingual. Third step of Epic N.
