Two CPU regressions surfaced in software-rendered / no-GPU containers
(Docker), where transform/opacity and canvas radial-gradient fills
rasterize on the CPU instead of a compositor:
1. Worker-orbs canvas + decorative motion saturate a core and freeze the
UI. A new opt-in "Max Performance" mode is the nuclear low-power switch:
body.max-performance CSS kills blur/shadow/filter AND all
animation/transition (spinners go static), and JS halts every canvas
loop (orbs, particles, cursor-glow, API sparks) via window._maxPerfActive.
Reduce Visual Effects is now decoupled from the orbs — they follow their
own toggle; only Max Performance force-kills them. While Max Performance
is on, the Orbs/Particles/Reduce-Effects checkboxes lock + grey out, and
save reads the runtime flags so prefs aren't clobbered.
2. Password managers (Bitwarden et al.) rebuild their autofill overlay on
every DOM mutation; a captured trace showed Bitwarden using ~6x the CPU
of the whole app (~400 setupOverlayOnField/sec). suppressPasswordManager-
Autofill() tags non-credential inputs with data-bwignore / data-1p-ignore
/ data-lpignore / data-form-type=other so the managers skip them; real
login/PIN fields are left alone.
Wired through: web_server.py (_initial_appearance_context), index.html
(inline flag + body class + checkbox), init.js (applyMaxPerformance +
bootstrap + listener + autofill suppression), settings.js (load/save),
worker-orbs.js / particles.js / api-monitor.js (gates), style.css.

The blurred 60fps worker-orb canvas is the main remaining Firefox lag source after the
#935 sweep (multiple Discord lag reports). So for a FIRST-TIME user with no saved
preference, default the orbs OFF on Firefox (smooth first impression where it's needed)
and ON everywhere else (full polish where the browser handles it). An explicit saved
choice ALWAYS wins — this only picks the default when the user hasn't chosen.
Done kettui-style with a SINGLE source of truth, not the dual browser-detection I first
floated (server UA + client _isFirefox would be the same fact in two places that can
drift — exactly the server/client class #943's green-flash fix just cleaned up):
- core/ui_appearance.py (new, pure + importable): is_firefox_user_agent +
resolve_worker_orbs_default(explicit, is_firefox) — explicit wins, unset → !firefox.
- web_server: the SERVER decides (UA via _request_is_firefox, request-context-safe) and
injects initial_worker_orbs_enabled; config default flipped None so "unset" is
distinguishable from an explicit False. The client just consumes the injected value
(init.js unchanged) — no client-side re-derivation of "is Firefox".
- settings.js: the orb checkbox default now reflects the server value when unset, so
saving Settings can't silently flip a first-time Firefox user's orbs back on.
No regression: Chrome users unchanged; users with an explicit setting unchanged (it
wins regardless of browser); /api/settings returns raw config so it can't clobber the
default for an unset value. Verified end-to-end through a real Flask request context
(Firefox→off, Chrome→on, explicit wins both ways, no crash outside a request). 8 pure
seam tests pin the contract; ruff clean.
diegocade1: DSD files (.dsf, ~500MB DSD64) were labeled "Low Quality" and nagged to upgrade.
two independent causes, both fixed (additive — no existing format/behaviour changed):
1) DSF was an unrecognized format -> bottom 'unknown' tier -> "Low Quality":
- source_map: map .dsf/.dff -> 'dsf' (also lights it up in AUDIO_EXTENSIONS, so Soulseek can
match a DSF if one exists)
- model.tier_score: 'dsf' base 102 (just above FLAC) — lands in the lossless range
- probe_audio_quality: add a DSD branch returning format='dsf' (mutagen.dsf for .dsf detail;
.dff classifies lossless without measured detail) instead of None
- settings UI: DSD in RT_LOSSLESS_FORMATS + a "DSD (DSF / DFF)" option in the profile dropdown
2) the actual cause of the screenshot's findings — the truncation guard falsely called DSF
"broken (only ~12% decodes)": ffmpeg decodes DSD to PCM at a different rate than the DSD
container's 2.8 MHz, so astats samples ÷ container-rate massively under-counts. now
detect_broken_audio skips the truncation check for DSD (silence detection still applies).
8 seam tests: dsf/dff -> 'dsf'; dsf tier in lossless range (with + without measured bitrate);
is_dsd_path; and a contrast pair proving the same 12%-decode numbers flag a .flac but skip a
.dsf. 230 quality/import/silence tests green, ruff + JS integrity clean.
the full-page particle canvas runs a continuous requestAnimationFrame loop behind every
page — real GPU cost, and multiple users hit GPU strain until they found the toggle. flip
the default to off; the eye candy is opt-in now.
- init.js: runtime flag defaults false unless localStorage is explicitly 'true'
- settings.js: config read is now '=== true' (default off) instead of '!== false'
- index.html: checkbox no longer 'checked' by default; hint reworded
existing users who explicitly enabled it (localStorage/config 'true') keep it on; the
existing '!== false' runtime guards still work since the flag is now always set explicitly.
Quality-profile settings UI cleanup:
- Add the "Rank-based download order" toggle (priority mode). It's hidden when
Best quality is active, since that mode always ranks by quality.
- Plain-language search-strategy options ("fast" / "thorough"); load + save the
new rank_candidates_by_quality flag.
- Move the long help texts behind a dim ⓘ icon that sits on the (fixed) label
row and toggles a collapsible body below — the trigger no longer moves on
open. Applied to: search strategy, rank-based order, off-list fallback,
AcoustID-verified, and the "How it works" ranked-targets explainer.
toggleSettingHelp walks to the next .setting-help-body sibling so it works
regardless of wrapper or an in-between control.
- Fix the "Search strategy" label: zero the flex-row margin so it aligns with
the ⓘ, and bump it to 12px/brighter so it doesn't read as dim/undersized.
- Remove the duplicate "🎵 Quality Profile" heading inside the tile body.
- Replace the inline "Reset to defaults" link with a proper ↺ button.
- Restore the gap between the "Quality priority" label and the target list.

Keeps the reference presets (96/128/192/256/320) but adds "Custom…", which
reveals a number input so you can type any minimum bitrate. addRankedTarget
reads the manual value when the dropdown is on Custom.

Convenience: pick a group + constraints (e.g. All lossless, ≥24-bit/≥96kHz) and
it expands into one concrete per-format target each (FLAC/ALAC/WAV, or the five
lossy formats) at that slot — so you don't add them one by one. Purely UI; the
backend still ranks concrete per-format targets. Re-adding a group skips formats
that already have an identical target, and the expanded entries can be
reordered/pruned individually afterwards.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The ranked-target list is now the single source of truth for which formats
download, in the user's exact priority order, for ALL sources — no hardcoded
format hierarchy decides anything. A candidate passes only if it matches a
ranked target; if nothing matches, the existing Use-Fallback toggle decides.
- source_map: new shared format_from_extension() + AUDIO_EXTENSIONS — one
source of truth for extension→format used by every extension-based source, so
adding a format lights it up everywhere. Soulseek now classifies through it
(opus/wav/aiff were previously dropped as 'unknown').
- file_ops.probe_audio_quality (generic import-time guard, all sources): add
WMA; detect ALAC from the real codec (an .m4a is AAC or ALAC).
- soulseek: drop the AAC-specific opt-in gate — AAC now follows the same
universal rule as every format.
- model.tier_score: documented as ONLY a same-format tiebreak + fallback order,
never cross-format priority (the list owns that); add opus/alac bases.
- UI: ranked-target editor offers all formats (FLAC/ALAC/WAV·AIFF lossless with
bit-depth+sample-rate; MP3/AAC/OGG/Opus/WMA lossy with min-bitrate).
- tests: AAC retargeted to the universal model; new coverage for
format_from_extension and matches_target across all formats.

New setting acoustid.require_verified (default off), shown under
Settings → Quality Profile only when AcoustID is enabled.
When on, an AcoustID SKIP (ran but couldn't confirm — no fingerprint match
or cross-script metadata, the ⚠ "unverified" case) is treated like a FAIL:
the file is quarantined and the next-best candidate is tried, instead of
importing an unverified file. Only a clean AcoustID PASS is kept.
Transient ERROR results (rate-limit / outage) are deliberately NOT blocked —
that would stall the whole pipeline during an AcoustID outage. Those still
import with their existing flag.
- pipeline.py: SKIP routes through the existing FAIL quarantine + retry path
(trigger 'acoustid') when require_verified is on.
- UI: checkbox under Quality Profile, visibility tied to acoustid-enabled via
syncAcoustidRequireVerifiedVisibility(); load/save wired in settings.js.

The audio-completeness guard (detect_broken_audio) is the only post-processing
step that fully DECODES the file with ffmpeg, making it the most CPU-heavy step.
Two changes reduce and gate that cost:
1. Single ffmpeg pass: astats (truncation) + silencedetect (silence) now run in
one chained -af filter over a single decode, instead of two full decodes.
~50% less CPU, no detection lost. Pure parsers unchanged.
2. Opt-in toggle: new post_processing.audio_completeness_check (default False).
The decode now only runs when the user enables it under
Settings → Post-processing → Core Features. Most preview/truncation cases are
already caught at the source (HiFi/Qobuz have their own guards), so the
expensive whole-file decode stays off unless explicitly turned on.

Standalone _run_soulsync_deep_scan did a path-only diff (untracked = transfer files
not in the soulsync DB) and shutil.move'd EVERY untracked file to Staging — no guard.
When the DB is empty/out of sync with disk (volume swap, DB reset, external Picard
tag edits) but Transfer holds the real library, that flags the whole library as
untracked and relocates all of it; Phase 5 then deletes the rows, and with Staging
cleanup on the files are gone for good. Reporter lost ~1,500 tracks into Staging.
The stale_guard the orphan detector + media-server deep scan already use (#828, #908)
was never wired into this path. Fix:
- core/library/standalone_scan.py (pure, tested): plan_standalone_deep_scan() diffs
untracked (separator-normalized) and decides whether the move is safe. Blocks when
the untracked share is implausibly large (>20 files AND >50% of Transfer — the
desync signature, via is_implausible_orphan_flood) or when the user marked Transfer
permanent. A normal batch of new arrivals still moves.
- web_server: consult the planner before Phase 4; on block, move NOTHING, leave files
in place, and surface a loud warning + activity item. Guard Phase 5 deletes too
(skip on desync-block or implausible stale share).
- 'Transfer is my permanent library — never move files out' toggle
(import.transfer_is_permanent) in Settings.
- tests/library/test_standalone_scan.py: seam coverage + the #904 regression
(empty DB + 1,500 files -> blocked, nothing moved).
No behavior change for in-sync libraries; the guard only trips on the desync pattern.
People report SoulSync working their machine hard at idle. On likely-weak devices
(<=2 cores, or <=2GB, or low on both: <=4 cores AND <=4GB) auto-enable reduce-effects
once and toast why ('lower-power device — turn effects back on in Settings').
Device-scoped via localStorage on purpose: a weak laptop must not flip the server
setting for the user's other machines. Acts only when this device has no stored
preference (null), so it runs at most once and never overrides an explicit choice.
Conservative thresholds avoid flagging capable boxes (a 4-core/8GB laptop isn't
touched; Firefox/Safari, which don't expose deviceMemory, only trip on <=2 cores).
Settings-load now prefers the device-level localStorage value over the server
default, so opening Settings no longer clobbers the per-device (auto or manual) choice.
Private YT Music playlists (a user's Liked Music, list=LM) need auth, but the
only cookie option was cookiesfrombrowser — a browser on the same machine as
SoulSync, useless on a headless/Docker box (and locked to whatever account that
browser happens to be signed into). Add a 'Paste cookies.txt' mode so users can
supply the exact session they want from any machine.
- core/youtube_cookies.py: pure seam — build_youtube_cookie_opts (cookiefile vs
cookiesfrombrowser precedence, mutually exclusive, fail-safe on a missing file),
looks_like_cookiefile (needs a real cookie row; rejects junk/header-only),
write_pasted_cookiefile (validate + 0600 write; blank/junk never clobbers a saved file).
- _youtube_cookie_opts() delegates to the seam, so every yt-dlp call site gets it.
- /api/settings pops cookies_paste before the generic persist, validates (400 on
junk), writes config/youtube_cookies.txt, stores only the path (blob never hits config.json).
- Settings dropdown gains 'Paste cookies.txt'; selecting it reveals a textarea.
- tests/test_youtube_cookies.py: precedence, validation, fail-safe write (11 tests).
Files inside an Organize-by-Playlist folder were stuck with the library filename
(materializer hardcoded os.path.basename) — users wanted control over the naming,
e.g. a playlist-order prefix so a DAP plays them in order.
Add an opt-in FILENAME template "Playlist File Naming" (file_organization.templates
.playlist_item), tokens $position/$artist/$album/$track/$title. It is a filename,
not a path: validated to forbid "/" or "\" and to require $title, both in the
Settings UI (blocks save with a reason) and in core/playlists/item_naming.py, which
also fails safe at apply time — a bad/empty template falls back to the library
filename, so it can never produce a broken name. Default empty = current behavior.
Works for symlink AND copy modes (a symlink name is independent of its target).
Applied in _rebuild_one_from_db (the live reconcile/rebuild path), which has the
per-track metadata + playlist order; the pure FS materializer just gained an
optional dest_names override and is otherwise untouched. $position is zero-padded
to playlist width for correct sorting.
Tests: pure validate/render (slash + missing-title rejected, fallback, sanitize,
no-separator guarantee), FS-layer dest_names + collision disambiguation + back-
compat, and end-to-end through the DB rebuild (07->01 rename + empty-template
keeps library filename).
Switching presets now restores the user's prior edits to that preset
instead of factory defaults. Edits are stashed per preset name under
the quality_profile_presets preference; 'custom'/unknown names are not
stashed. Adds a /reset endpoint + "Reset to defaults" UI link to drop a
preset's saved edits.
- DB: set_quality_profile stashes per-preset; get_quality_preset returns
the customized form by default, _factory_quality_preset for the raw
defaults; reset_quality_preset forgets a preset's edits.
- web_server: apply-preset carries the global search_mode across switches;
new preset/<name>/reset endpoint.
- UI: target edits now save via debouncedSaveQualityProfile (profile-only,
no full settings re-init/flicker); preset switch suppresses the global
auto-save listener; help text + reset link.

Quality fallback is now a global setting in the Quality Profile
(ranked targets + fallback_enabled). The per-source allow_fallback
checkboxes on Tidal, Qobuz, HiFi, Deezer and Amazon were misleading —
they implied quality is still controlled per-source. Removed from HTML
and settings.js read/save. Backend defaults to allow_fallback=True
which is the correct behaviour.

radoslav-orlov: add AAC as a download quality option. AAC is more efficient than
MP3, so it's useful for Soulseek/torrents (streaming sources pick their own
codec; Amazon — the AAC-heavy one — is down).
Additive by construction: every quality tier already defaults enabled=false and
the waterfall is built only from enabled tiers, so AAC ships OFF and the bucketer
routes a not-enabled AAC file to the 'other' bucket EXACTLY as today (where it was
silently dropped). Only a user who turns AAC on makes it a first-class tier,
ranked above MP3 / below FLAC (priority 1.5, min-kbps gate so junk AAC can't beat
a good MP3).
- music_database: aac tier (disabled) in the default profile + all 3 presets.
- soulseek_client: map .m4a -> 'aac' in both result parsers (was 'unknown' ->
dropped); add the 'aac' bucket + a gated branch + a fallback size limit.
- settings UI: an 'AAC' tier toggle (unchecked) between FLAC and MP3; save
defaults its priority to 1.5 so upgraded profiles rank it right on first save.
7 seam tests pinning the additive guarantee (aac absent/disabled -> dropped as
before; FLAC/MP3 selection unchanged; aac on -> selectable, below FLAC, above
MP3); 81 quality/soulseek tests pass, ruff clean. quality_upgrade left untouched
(its AAC handling is unchanged).
Surfaces metadata_enhancement.single_to_album as a checkbox in the Post-Processing
> Core Features section, next to the cover-art settings (it's about getting the
right album cover). Default OFF, wired like the replaygain toggle (load '=== true',
save raw .checked) since the generic data-config binding defaults a missing key to
ON. Registered the default in settings.py DEFAULT_CONFIG + config.example.json.
Reported by @Lysticity: opening Settings reset the whole config to defaults. The
chain: GET /api/settings 500s (their env: ConfigManager missing redacted_config)
-> loadSettingsData() called response.json() WITHOUT checking response.ok, so the
error body {"error": ...} was treated as settings -> every field populated as
`settings.x?.y || ''` blanked to defaults -> autosave then wrote those defaults
over the real config.
Fix (settings.js): bail BEFORE touching any field when the response isn't ok / is
an error body, set window._settingsLoadFailed, and guard BOTH save paths
(debouncedAutoSaveSettings + saveSettings) on it. The flag clears on the next
successful load. So any load failure (500, lock, network) now leaves the saved
config untouched instead of wiping it.
The redacted_config method exists in all 2.7.x source + on dev (their 500 looks
like a stale/mismatched build), but the UI must not destroy config on ANY failed
load. Regression test pins redacted_config stays a callable method on the class
(its removal is exactly what 500s the endpoint).
Answers "does import respect quality?": yes — the pipeline already runs the
quality gate (check_quality_target) BEFORE AcoustID and quarantines files that
don't meet the profile (unless fallback/downsample is on). This adds an explicit
user switch over that behaviour.
- New config import.quality_filter_enabled (default True). When False,
check_quality_target returns None early so EVERY file imports regardless of
quality; the file is still probed and the library Quality Upgrade Scanner
still flags below-profile tracks. Default preserves current behaviour.
- Settings → Library: the Import Settings group is now a collapsible tile
(same pattern as Post-Processing) and gains the "Only import tracks that meet
your quality profile" toggle at the top, alongside replace-lower-quality and
folder-artist-override.
- settings.js populate/collect the new key; config schema default added.
- Tests: key-aware config stub (a blanket-False mock would wrongly disable the
filter) + a new test pinning toggle-OFF = accept below-target file.

Adds an opt-in search strategy toggle in the Quality Profile:
- priority (default): unchanged — first source in the hybrid chain that
meets a quality target wins.
- best_quality: pool candidates from EVERY source per query and download
them best→worst by actual audio quality; source order only breaks ties.
Implementation reuses existing plumbing so the retry system is untouched:
- engine.search_all_sources pools raw tracks across all configured,
non-exhausted sources (no first-source short-circuit).
- candidates.order_candidates: new quality_first sort path — profile
quality rank dominates, confidence/peer signals break ties. Priority
path is byte-for-byte unchanged (regression-locked by tests).
- task_worker passes quality_first + targets through; skips the redundant
hybrid-fallback block in best-quality mode (pool already covered it).
- Per-source retry budgets unchanged: a source that spends its budget is
added to exhausted_download_sources and thus dropped from the whole
pool. Independent of post_processing.retry_exhaustive.
- Query generator NOT touched.
Also clarifies the "Allow fallback" setting wording: it accepts OFF-LIST
quality as a last resort (not "walk down my list"), and notes that
lossy_copy.downsample_hires also bypasses the quality gate — the cause of
16-bit/MP3 files slipping through a 24-bit-only profile.

Remove the per-source download-quality dropdowns (Tidal/HiFi/Qobuz/Deezer/
Amazon) — with the global ranked-targets system they were redundant and
conflicting. Add quality_tier_for_source(): picks the LOWEST source tier
that satisfies the user's top target (respects the quality ceiling, saves
bandwidth) or the source's max as best effort. Every source's search +
download + retry path now derives its tier from the global profile instead
of config_manager.get('<source>_download.quality').
Settings keep the per-source allow_fallback toggles; the quality selects are
replaced with a note pointing at Quality Profile.

Quality Profile is now a global system driving every source, so stop hiding
it behind Soulseek being active — show it on the downloads tab regardless.
On the review queue, make Unverified rows row-clickable to open the audit/
info modal (matching Quarantine rows, which were already clickable); the
action buttons stopPropagation so they don't double-trigger.

Replace the v2 per-tier quality UI (FLAC on/off + MP3 sliders + bit-depth
buttons) with a draggable ordered target list. Each row shows its rank +
label with move/delete; an add form picks format and, for lossless, bit
depth + min sample rate, or for lossy a minimum bitrate threshold (>=) so
VBR/mono files aren't falsely rejected. Persists v3 ranked_targets via the
existing /api/quality-profile. Presets + fallback toggle retained; help
text and tooltip rewritten for the new top-down source-gating model.
Verified: v3 profile round-trips UI shape -> DB -> load_profile_targets.

The Deezer ARL field round-trips a redaction sentinel for a saved-but-untouched
secret (shown as dots). The save path already guards against the sentinel
overwriting the real token (ConfigManager.set), so the ARL was never actually
lost — but the connection TEST read the field value and sent the sentinel as the
token, so Deezer returned USER_ID=0 ('Invalid ARL token') after navigating away
and back. That false failure made it look like the ARL kept resetting.
Fix:
- ConfigManager.resolve_secret(key, posted): empty/sentinel posted value -> the
stored value; a real string -> a genuine new secret. Reusable for any secret
connection-test (single source of truth).
- /api/deezer-download/test now resolves the effective ARL via resolve_secret, so
an untouched field tests the stored token.
- testDeezerDownloadConnection() strips the sentinel before sending (untouched ->
empty -> backend uses the saved token).
Seam/regression tests for resolve_secret (sentinel/empty/none -> stored, real ->
passthrough, nothing stored -> empty). JS integrity 64 green.
- Settings: 'Playlists Folder' path field (Unlock pattern, separate-root help
text), a Symlinks/Copies selector, and a 'Rebuild playlist folders now' button
(standard test-button style). Wired through PATH_INPUT_IDS / load / save, plus
'playlists' added to the settings save allowlist so it persists.
- POST /api/playlists/materialize/rebuild → rebuild_organized_playlists_from_db:
rebuilds every organize-by-playlist folder from CURRENT ownership, re-matching
each track with check_track_exists (name, not IDs) so it self-heals after a
reorganize / membership change. +1 test.
70 materialize tests + JS integrity pass; settings round-trip wiring verified.
After saving a password or recovery question, a refresh made the section look
unset (passwords are never echoed back to the browser), so it seemed like you had
to redo it. Now the saved state is reflected:
- "✓ A login password is set" appears when the admin has a password; the field
becomes "Enter a new password to change it".
- "✓ Recovery question saved: <question>" appears, the saved question is pre-
selected (preset or custom), and the answer field becomes "Enter a new answer to
change it".
- Shown both on load (applyLoginSavedState from /api/profiles, which now includes
recovery_question — not secret, already shown on the sign-in screen) and
immediately after saving.
64 integrity tests pass.
The security section had grown into a flat pile of toggles with hidden
dependencies. Regrouped into three labelled cards so it reads top-to-bottom:
- 🔑 Lock with a PIN — set PIN (Step 1) → Require PIN
- 👤 User accounts (login) — Step 1 admin password → Step 2 recovery question →
Step 3 Require login. The Step 3 toggle is now visually LOCKED (greyed +
disabled + "set the admin password first" hint) until an admin password exists,
so the anti-lockout rule is obvious instead of surfacing as a 400 on save. It
unlocks the moment the password is saved.
- 🌐 Reverse proxy & remote access — the proxy toggle, with the auth-proxy header
nested under it (indented), plus WebSocket origins.
- get_all_profiles/get_profile now expose has_password + has_recovery so the UI
can reflect setup state; updateRequireLoginGate() drives the lock.
- New .security-subgroup/.security-subhead/.security-nested/.security-locked CSS.
All IDs + handlers preserved. Inert unless used; default install unaffected.
64 script-split integrity tests pass.
The UI that makes opt-in login usable. Off by default → your LAN setup is unchanged
(none of this appears unless security.require_login is on).
- Login screen overlay (reuses the launch-PIN styling): username + password →
/api/auth/login → reload into the app. Shown when /api/profiles/current reports
login_required (checked before profile selection).
- POST /api/profiles/<id>/set-password (admin, or self) to set/clear a login
password, distinct from the PIN.
- Settings → Security: "Login password (admin account)" field + a "Require login"
toggle (with the anti-lockout note). Wired into the existing settings load/save.
- Sign-out button in the profile bar, revealed only in login mode (login_mode flag
on /api/profiles/current); soulsyncLogout() → /api/auth/logout → reload.
Tests: set-password sets/clears + verifies; /api/profiles/current signals
login_required. 20 login/password tests pass; 64 script-split integrity pass.
Remaining (small follow-up): a password field in the Manage Profiles edit form so
admins can set OTHER profiles' passwords from the UI (the endpoint already exists).
Config is DB-backed (metadata.app_config) — there is no config.json — so the
reverse-proxy settings I added earlier had NO way to be set by a user and were
effectively dead. Added them to Settings → Security, next to the launch-PIN toggle:
- "Behind a reverse proxy" checkbox (security.trust_reverse_proxy) — help text notes
it's for nginx/Caddy/Traefik+TLS, to leave OFF for direct/LAN http://, and that it
needs a restart (applied at app init).
- "Auth proxy user header" field (security.auth_proxy_header) — e.g. Remote-User,
with the must-strip-client-headers warning; blank = off.
Wired into the existing settings load + save; the save loop already persists every
key in the security object via config_manager.set, so no backend change needed.
Fixed Support/REVERSE-PROXY.md to point at Settings → Security instead of a
nonexistent config.json. Off by default → zero impact for direct users.
64 script-split integrity tests pass.
The model shifted from "admin creates shared credential sets, users pick" to
"each profile self-auths its own playlist accounts". Removed the admin-facing
Connected Accounts manager: the Settings section, credential-sets.js, its CSS,
the script tag + integrity-registry entry, and the loadSettingsData hook.
The credential-sets backend (service_credentials tables + /api/credentials and
/api/profiles/me/services endpoints) is left in place but dormant — additive,
tested, harmless — rather than churn migrations that already ran on installs.
Per-profile self-auth reuses the existing per-profile columns + the
get_*_for_profile client pattern instead. The Service Status modal (admin-only)
is unaffected.
Follow-up to the modal fix: the sidebar Service Status + dashboard service card
also mislabeled "Spotify (no auth)" as plain "Spotify". They read the status
`source`, which came straight from metadata.fallback_source ('spotify') with no
awareness of the metadata.spotify_free flag.
- get_primary_source_status now reports a DISPLAY source of 'spotify_free' when
fallback_source='spotify' + metadata.spotify_free is set (the raw 'spotify' is
still used for the auth/connected checks), and treats the free path's
availability as "connected" so the dot isn't falsely red on a no-auth setup.
- getMetadataSourceLabel maps 'spotify_free' → "Spotify (no auth)"; the status
presentation treats spotify_free as part of the Spotify family (session /
rate-limit / cooldown display still work). Added a SOURCE_LABELS entry.
- testDashboardConnection normalizes spotify_free → spotify (the only logic
consumer of the source value — the dashboard Test button).
Routing is unchanged (the real source stays 'spotify' + free flag); this is
purely the display layer. Settings was always correct. 64 integrity tests pass;
the 2 failing soundcloud tests are pre-existing (confirmed identical on a clean
tree).
Frontend for the credential-set feature, matching the blocklist/house modal
style. Functional end to end against the existing endpoints; visuals are a
clean first pass to refine.
Admin manager (Settings → Connected Accounts, admin-only — empty for non-admins):
per service, the saved accounts render as pills with a delete ✕, and "+ Add
account" reveals an inline form built from each service's required fields.
Create POSTs /api/credentials; secrets are entered but never read back (the API
only returns id/label). Loads via loadCredentialSets() at the end of
loadSettingsData().
Quick-switch modal (sidebar Service Status is now clickable for ALL profiles):
shows, per service the admin set up, a "Default" pill + one pill per account,
highlighting the profile's current choice; clicking persists via
/api/profiles/me/services/select and re-renders. Empty-state message when the
admin hasn't configured any alternates.
webui/static/credential-sets.js (new, registered in index.html), house-style
CSS appended, sidebar made clickable, settings hook added. Registered the new
module in the script-split integrity test (onclick coverage). 64 integrity
tests pass; real-app smoke confirms index renders, the asset serves, and
admin-create → per-profile-list round-trips.
Note: selections are stored but not yet consumed by the live clients (the
resolver remains dormant) — wiring playlist-pull/enrichment to use a profile's
selected account is the next step.
The hybrid download-source list set item.draggable=true and the help text said
"drag to reorder", but no drag handlers were wired — only the arrow buttons
worked (and _syncHybridOrderFromDOM was dead code). Wired real
dragstart/dragover/drop on each item, reordering _hybridVisualOrder (the same
model moveHybridSource uses) then rebuilding + autosaving. Added grab/grabbing
cursors + a dragging state. The arrow buttons still work unchanged.
Found during the #832 audit: GET /api/settings returned dict(config_data) — and
config_data is DECRYPTED in memory — so every API key, OAuth secret, Plex/
Jellyfin token, and service password went to the browser in cleartext. Fernet
"encrypted at rest" protects a leaked DB file; it does nothing once the API
hands the plaintext to the client (devtools, HAR captures, an XSS, a screen
share, or a non-PIN'd LAN viewer).
Fix (centralized in ConfigManager):
- redacted_config() deep-copies config and replaces every _SENSITIVE_PATHS value
that's actually set with REDACTED_SENTINEL; unset secrets stay empty so the UI
still shows "not configured". Dict-valued secrets (tidal/qobuz OAuth sessions)
collapse to the sentinel too. GET /api/settings now serves this copy.
- set() ignores a write of REDACTED_SENTINEL to a sensitive path, so the masked
placeholder round-tripped by an unchanged settings form can never overwrite
the real secret. A real value still saves; an empty value still clears.
Frontend: secret inputs are type=password, so the sentinel renders as dots
(looks like a saved secret). _wireRedactedSecrets() clears the mask on focus so
editing types fresh rather than onto the sentinel, and re-masks on blur if left
untouched — so an unchanged secret round-trips the sentinel (kept), an edited
one saves the new value, and a deliberately emptied one clears.
Tests: every sensitive path masks; unset stays empty; dict secrets mask; live
config not mutated; sentinel round-trip keeps the real secret; real value
overwrites; empty clears; sentinel on a non-secret path writes normally.
9 new tests; 518 config-touching tests pass (1 pre-existing soundcloud mock
failure, unrelated — fails identically on a clean tree).
Per Boulder's calls on the new enrichment toggle:
- Naming: "Spotify Free" was misleading (it's a hybrid — pick it, connect an
account, and sync still uses your official playlists). Relabel the user-facing
strings to "Spotify (no auth)" — the real distinction is needs-credentials vs
not. Internal value/key (spotify_free, _free_*) unchanged, so no migration.
- Default ON: metadata.spotify_free_enrichment now defaults True (worker + UI
load both treat unset as on). So bulk enrichment runs on the no-auth path by
default and the official account is reserved for interactive search/sync; turn
the toggle off to enrich through the connected account. The toggle overrides
auth for the worker (authed users still enrich via no-auth) — matching the
intended model.
- Worker runs on the toggle alone: is_spotify_metadata_available() now honors
_prefer_free (+ package installed), so the worker enriches via no-auth even
with no account connected and no 'no-auth' source selected. Only fires on a
client carrying the flag (the worker's own), so interactive/watchlist
availability is unchanged.
- UI: moved the toggle from "Metadata Source" to the Spotify section next to the
auth fields, always visible, on by default. Help notes the genre trade-off.
Tests: prefer_free makes metadata available without auth/source (and is inert
without the package); interactive availability unaffected. 218 Spotify tests pass.
User-facing opt-in for metadata.spotify_free_enrichment (the engine landed in
38461295). A checkbox in the Metadata Source frame, independent of the primary-
source dropdown, so a user with an official Spotify account connected can choose
to run the bulk enrichment worker on the no-creds Spotify Free source — sparing
their official API quota / dodging rate-limit bans for interactive search + sync.
Help text notes the trade-off (no artist genres from Free). Default off.
Wiring mirrors the existing spotify_free setting: saved in the metadata payload,
loaded into the checkbox, persisted via the generic metadata.* config loop (no
backend change). Auto-save already covers checkboxes in #settings-page.
Tacobell444: the Logs tab has no savable settings, but its live-viewer controls
(source picker, filters, auto-scroll) were tripping the settings auto-save —
each one POSTs /api/settings and logs "Settings saved successfully via Web UI",
flooding app.log and drowning out the logs the user is trying to read.
Fix: debouncedAutoSaveSettings bails when the active settings tab is 'logs'
(checked via .stg-tab.active). Purely frontend — no save is scheduled while on
that tab, so the backend never logs the save. Doesn't touch the existing
_suppressSettingsAutoSave form-population guard, and every other tab auto-saves
exactly as before; manual Save still works everywhere.
Follow-up to 5187fe5f, which shipped stall handling as config-only keys.
Boulder wanted them user-accessible, so the two knobs now render in the
Torrent Client settings section:
- "Stalled torrent timeout (minutes)" — number input. Shown in MINUTES for
friendliness, stored in SECONDS (download_source.torrent_stall_timeout_
seconds). 0 disables. Blank/NaN falls back to the 10-min default on save.
- "When a torrent stalls" — Abandon (default) / Pause select, maps to
download_source.torrent_stall_action.
Both live under download_source (already in the settings POST allowlist), so
no backend change — load converts seconds→minutes, save converts back.
Inputs/selects only (no onclick), so the script-split onclick-coverage test
stays green. settings.js syntax-checked via Windows node.
Reinstate the Soulseek dependency (quality profile only affects Soulseek
downloads) that was dropped while fixing the empty-tile bug. Gate the whole
collapsible tile (#quality-profile-tile) as a unit instead of the inner group,
so it fully shows (Soulseek active + downloads tab) or fully hides — no empty
expandable shell. switchSettingsTab runs updateDownloadSourceUI after the
data-stg tab filter, so this gate is authoritative on tab switches.
