release: 0.109.2 (bug/plex-player-server-away)

During a deploy the gateway answers 502 (or nothing answers at all) until the app is back. The
player took the first such answer for a broken stream: it said "Playback couldn't start" over a
picture still playing from its buffer, stopped loading, and never asked again, so the episode froze
where the buffer ended with the error still up. Now a 502/503/504 or no answer is the server being
away: the buffer keeps playing undisturbed, the session is asked for again where the viewer is
(2, 4, 8, then every 15 s), and the error is said only after three minutes away. A seek or another
item replaces a pending retry. Measured on localdev: a 45 s API stop now resumes at the viewer's
position, where it froze with the error before.

+## 0.109.2 — 2026-10-23
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Plex player: when the server restarts mid-episode (an update), playback carries on from the buffer and picks up where you are once it is back, instead of showing "Playback couldn't start" and stopping where the buffer ended.
+
+## 0.109.1 — 2026-10-23
+
+### New
+
+- Development: the frontend is one folder per page (its page, rail, store and definition), with the layers held by lint and the shared /watch page held apart by a contract test; the header knows no page, and the feed and Plex each keep their own saved views.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Saved views: a view you applied and then changed is still active after a visit to another page, in the feed and in Plex.
+
+## 0.109.0 — 2026-10-21
+
+### New
+
+- Accounts: a browser is signed in to one account at a time. The account menu's "Sign in as someone else" replaces it; the account list and switcher are gone. After this update everyone signs in once more.
+- Settings follow you: the Home start page, the channel manager and Plex playlist layouts, the discovery sorts and a dismissed onboarding or release banner are saved to your account, on every device. Performance mode stays per device.
+- Development: every key the browser stores declares its kind, held by a contract test; one Google connect route serves the sign-in and the YouTube access grants.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Accounts: a tab still showing another account than the one signed in now reloads as that one and says why; a failed "Sign in as someone else" says what happened.
+- A link whose path starts with // no longer opens the error screen.
+- A member following a link to an admin page lands on the feed, with the rail and the address bar in step.
+- Google: an unknown access request is refused instead of quietly asking for read access, and a YouTube grant on an instance without Google says so.
+
+## 0.108.1 — 2026-10-20
+
+### New
+
+- Development: the backend is split into four units (downloads, reader, catalog, Plex), each owning its tables. A contract test holds what each one reads and writes, and that every query names whose rows it asks for.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Watch later: saving the first two videos at once no longer makes two lists. An existing second list is merged into the first, its videos and its comfort-shelf pin with it.
+- Playback: the first resume point of a video or a Plex item no longer fails when it is saved together with the watched mark, a whole season marked at once, or a Plex sync.

+and its `module.ts` definition — label, icon, gate, the lazy page and rail, its store — collected in nav order by
+`features/navigation/moduleRegistry`, which also mounts every store at the root; a new page is its folder, its id in
+`lib/urlState` and its entry there, plus its panel in `lib/panelLayout` if it has a rail) →

+## Adding a page
+
+A frontend page is one folder, `frontend/src/modules/<id>/` (the layering is in
+[`CLAUDE.md`](../CLAUDE.md) § Architecture shape):
+
+1. The page itself, default-exported, and anything only it uses. Header content (a search box, a toggle) the
+   page renders into the floating header itself through `PageHeader`; the shell knows no page.
+2. `module.ts`: its `ModuleDef` (`lib/moduleDef.ts`): id, label keys, icon, an optional `gate`, the page as a
+   `lazyWithPreload(() => import(…))`, and optionally a rail and a `Store`. Of its own folder it imports statically
+   only its store (a `…Provider` / `…Store` file); the page and the rail load lazily.
+3. `index.ts`, the module's public face: the definition, and only what other folders must read (its store's
+   hooks). Another folder reaches the module through this file or not at all.
+4. The id in `lib/urlState`'s `PAGES`, and the definition in `features/navigation/moduleRegistry.ts`, in
+   nav-rail order. The rail, the palette, the `g` chords, the tab title and the root's stores all read from there.
+5. Its strings in both locales (`src/i18n/locales`).
+6. A page with a side rail also names its panel below the module, in `lib/` (rails share one layout
+   and collapse machinery, which lib may not learn from a module): the `PanelId` and its default group
+   order, storage and pref keys in `lib/panelLayout.ts`, its collapse flag in `lib/useRail.ts`
+   (`COLLAPSE`), and those keys in `lib/storage.ts`. The rail calls `useRail("<id>")` and hands what it
+   returns to `ui/FilterRail`; tsc names each table still missing the new id.
+
+What holds it: `moduleRegistry.contract.test.ts` (every id defined once, from its own folder, lazily),
+`moduleStores.contract.test.tsx` (no store reads another module), the `local/layers` lint rule (imports only go
+down, a module only through its face) and `chunkGuard` in the build (no lazy page on the boot path), plus the
+i18n parity test.
