Owner decision: not worth shipping. The four library-driven personalized
sections were stubbed returning [] for ages because their schema
prereqs didn't exist; the prior commit re-enabled them by routing
through a new `_select_library_tracks` helper. Owner reviewed and chose
to delete the sections entirely instead.
Removed everywhere:
- `core/personalized_playlists.py` — `get_recently_added`,
`get_top_tracks`, `get_forgotten_favorites`, `get_familiar_favorites`
+ the `_select_library_tracks` helper (no other callers; verified
via grep).
- `web_server.py` — 4 route handlers
(`/api/discover/personalized/recently-added`, `top-tracks`,
`forgotten-favorites`, `familiar-favorites`).
- `webui/index.html` — 4 `<div class="discover-section">` blocks
(`#personalized-recently-added`, `#personalized-top-tracks`,
`#personalized-forgotten-favorites`,
`#personalized-familiar-favorites`).
- `webui/static/discover.js` — 4 load functions
(`loadPersonalizedRecentlyAdded`, `loadPersonalizedTopTracks`,
`loadPersonalizedForgottenFavorites`, `loadFamiliarFavorites`),
plus their entries in `loadDiscoverPage`'s Promise.all, plus
4 module-level state vars + 6 dead branches across
`openDownloadModalForDiscoverPlaylist` / `startDiscoverPlaylistSync`
and the sync-progress / rehydrate dispatchers.
- `webui/static/helper.js` — 4 tooltip / docs entries.
- `webui/static/sync-spotify.js` — 1 stale rehydrate dispatcher
branch (`discover_familiar_favorites`) caught during the global
grep pass.
- `tests/test_personalized_playlists_id_gate.py` — 3 library-method
tests + the test infrastructure that supported them
(`tracks` schema, `insert_library_track` helper). Documentation
header updated to reflect the deletion.
Net: -527 / +2 lines across 7 files.
What stays:
- Daily Mixes (also in personalized package, intentionally paused —
separate decision).
- Popular Picks + Hidden Gems + Discovery Shuffle (alive, not
affected by this deletion).
- All 14 tests in the personalized-playlists test file still pass.
- The PersonalizedPlaylistsService lift from the prior commit
(`_select_discovery_tracks` etc) — those are still in active use
by the surviving discovery_pool methods.
DISCOVER_TRACK_SELECTION_REVIEW.md at repo root contains historical
references to the four deleted endpoints. Treated as historical
context (same policy as WHATS_NEW), left alone.
2219/2219 full suite green (was 2222 - 3 deleted tests = 2219).
JS parses clean, ruff clean.
Both tabbed-browser sections — Time Machine ("Decade") and Browse by
Genre — re-implemented the same lifecycle by hand: fetch tabs list,
render the tab strip, attach click handlers, fetch content per tab,
render track list with sync + download action buttons + sync-status
block, handle empty/error/loading states. ~314 lines of identical
boilerplate split across two browsers.
Lifted into one shared `createTabbedBrowserSection(config)` helper.
Each browser is now a thin wrapper:
```js
const ctrl = createTabbedBrowserSection({
id: 'decade-browser',
tabsContainerEl: '#decade-tabs',
contentContainerEl: '#decade-content',
fetchTabs: async () => { ... },
renderTabButton: (tab, isActive) => `<button>...</button>`,
fetchTabContent: async (tab) => { ... },
renderTabContent: (tracks, tab) => `...`,
onTabContentRendered: (tab, contentEl) => { ... },
emptyMessage / errorMessage,
});
```
Migrated:
- `loadDecadeBrowserTabs` 85 → 3 lines
- `loadDecadeTracks` 67 → 3 lines
- `loadGenreBrowserTabs` 92 → 3 lines
- `loadGenreTracks` 70 → 3 lines
Helper: ~125 lines + ~100 lines of per-browser config blocks +
~25 lines of shared `_renderTabbedTrackList` (the two browsers had
byte-identical track-row markup so it lifted cleanly).
Public function names preserved — the four migrated functions stay
on the same signature so existing callers (`loadDiscoverPage`,
refresh buttons, inline handlers) don't change.
Side effects preserved — `decadeTracksCache[year]`, `activeDecade`,
`genreTracksCache[name]`, `activeGenre`, `availableGenres` still
mutated at the same lifecycle moments. The decade-specific
`startDecadeSync(decade)` and genre-specific `startGenreSync(name)`
sync-button handlers stay where they are; they're click handlers
attached to rendered content, not part of the tab lifecycle.
What didn't fit (intentionally left alone):
- `_renderCompactTrackRow` (the existing shared track-row helper) is
NOT used by the tabbed browsers — they had their own template
with a `track_data_json` fallback chain `_renderCompactTrackRow`
doesn't do. Unifying these two would change behavior for
non-tabbed sections, so the tabbed-browser variant lives as
`_renderTabbedTrackList`. Future cleanup could merge them by
giving `_renderCompactTrackRow` an opt-in fallback flag.
- `switchDecadeTab` / `switchGenreTab` still know about cache shape
so they can skip refetch on already-loaded tabs. Keeping that
in the per-browser switch is fine — it's a click handler, not
lifecycle.
Net: 8546 → 8578 LOC on `discover.js` (+32). Helper boilerplate
offsets the line count, but the win is single-source-of-truth, not
raw line reduction.
`node --check` clean. 2222/2222 full suite green.
Three changes tightening the controller before opening the PR.
DROP MAGIC `extractItems` DEFAULTS
Controller used to auto-pull `data.items` / `data.albums` /
`data.artists` / `data.tracks` / `data.results` when no extractor
was supplied. Removed the fallback chain — every section now MUST
provide an explicit `extractItems(data) => array`. Validated at
register-time so misuse fails immediately, not silently on first
load against an endpoint that happened to return two arrays.
Cin standard: explicit > implicit. Magic key-grabbing could pick
the wrong one in edge cases (e.g. an endpoint returning both
`data.albums` and `data.results` would have grabbed albums when
the section actually wanted results).
All 10 existing controller call sites already passed explicit
extractors, so no migration churn — this is purely tightening the
contract for future sections.
REPLACE `renderItems` NULL-RETURN CONVENTION WITH `manualDom: true`
Your Albums and similar sections that delegate to existing renderers
that target a CHILD element of `contentEl` used to signal "leave the
container alone" by returning null/undefined from `renderItems`. That
convention is easy to confuse with an accidental missing-return error.
Replaced with an explicit `manualDom: true` config flag. Renderer is
still called for its side-effects, controller just skips the innerHTML
swap. Clearer intent at the call site. Updated `loadYourAlbums` to
use the new flag.
PIN THE CONTROLLER CONTRACT WITH JS TESTS
Added `tests/static/test_discover_section_controller.mjs` — 32 tests
covering the controller's lifecycle contract:
- Config validation (every required field, mutual exclusivity of
fetchUrl/data, type checks on contentEl)
- Happy-path fetch → parse → render
- Empty state (default empty render, hideWhenEmpty + sectionEl,
success=false treated as empty, custom isSuccess override)
- Stale state (fires when isStale returns true, wins over empty,
custom renderStale override)
- Error state (HTTP non-ok, fetch throws, showErrorToast fires
window.showToast, default off doesn't fire)
- No-fetch `data:` mode (value + function form, doesn't call fetch)
- manualDom mode (skips innerHTML swap, still calls renderer)
- Callable `fetchUrl` (resolved at load time, refresh re-resolves)
- Load coalescing (concurrent loads share one fetch)
- Refresh bypasses coalescing (re-fires fetch every call)
- Hook error containment (throwing renderer/onSuccess hooks don't
crash the controller)
Runs via Node's stable built-in `--test` runner — no package.json,
no jest/vitest dependency, no compile step. Just `node --test`.
Pytest wrapper at `tests/test_discover_section_controller_js.py`
shells out to node and asserts clean exit, so the JS tests fail
the regular pytest sweep if the controller contract drifts.
Skipped gracefully when node isn't available or is < 22.
Closes the "controller is a contract, pin it at the test boundary"
gap that Cin would have flagged on review.
VERIFICATION
- 2205/2205 full pytest suite green (was 2204 + 1 new wrapper)
- 32/32 `node --test` pass on the controller test file directly
- ruff clean
- node --check clean on all touched JS files
Follow-up to the controller migration commits. Closes out the
extension list the per-section migrations surfaced as needed.
CONTROLLER EXTENSIONS
- Callable `fetchUrl: () => string` — resolves the seasonal-playlist
recreate-on-key-change hack from the prior commit.
- No-fetch `data:` mode — value or `() => value`. Lets render-only
sections like Seasonal Albums use the controller without inventing
a fake endpoint. Mutually exclusive with `fetchUrl`; validated up
front so misuse fails at register-time.
- `beforeLoad(ctx)` hook — runs before the spinner shows. Lets
dynamically-inserted sections like Because You Listen To ensure
their `contentEl` exists before the visibility check.
- `onSuccess(data, ctx)` hook — runs after the success gate but
before isEmpty / isStale. Cleaner home for sibling header /
subtitle / button updates than folding them into renderItems.
- `isStale(items, data)` + `onStale(ctx)` + `renderStale(items, data)`
+ `staleMessage` — third render state for "data is empty BUT
upstream is still discovering". Stale wins over empty when both
apply. Default stale UI is the same spinner block used elsewhere.
- `showErrorToast: true` config — opens a global `showToast(...)` in
addition to the in-section error block. Default off; sections that
have no recovery action shouldn't shout at the user.
- `renderItems` returning null/undefined now leaves contentEl
untouched. Lets a renderer do its own DOM manipulation (e.g.
delegating to an existing grid-render fn that targets a child
element) without fighting the controller's innerHTML swap.
MIGRATED THE 2 SKIPPED SECTIONS
- `loadYourAlbums` — uses `isStale`/`onStale`/`renderStale` for the
stale-fetch state, `onSuccess` for the subtitle/filters/download
side-effects, `hideWhenEmpty` + `sectionEl` for the truly-empty
case, `renderItems` returning null since it delegates to the
existing `_renderYourAlbumsGrid` + `_renderYourAlbumsPagination`.
- `loadSeasonalAlbums` — uses no-fetch `data:` mode because the
parent `loadSeasonalContent` already fetched the season payload.
`beforeLoad` updates the sibling title/subtitle text.
ERROR TOASTS ON ALL MIGRATED SECTIONS
Every migrated section now has `showErrorToast: true`. Section load
failures surface a global toast instead of silently spinning forever
or swallowing into console.debug. Same pattern JohnBaumb #369 asked
for at the Python layer, applied at the UI layer.
SHARED SYNC-STATUS BLOCK
Lifted the duplicated decade-tab + genre-tab sync-status HTML
(✓ completed | ⏳ pending | ✗ failed | percentage) into a single
`_renderSyncStatusBlock(idPrefix)` helper. Two call sites now share
one implementation. ListenBrainz playlists keep their own block
because the semantics differ — matching progress (total / matched /
failed) vs download progress.
DEAD-SECTION AUDIT — NONE DEAD
Audited the 13 supposedly-dead hidden sections from
DISCOVER_REVIEW.md. All 13 are alive: gated on user data (discovery
pool, library content, metadata cache) and self-surface when their
data exists via `style.display = 'block'` on the success path. The
review's grep missed the toggle. No deletions made.
DAILY MIXES ORPHAN CALL
Removed the orphaned `loadPersonalizedDailyMixes()` call from
`blockDiscoveryArtist` — Daily Mixes is intentionally paused (its
load call in `loadDiscoverPage` is commented out) so refreshing it
from the post-block hook was a no-op.
2204/2204 full suite green. JS parses clean (`node --check`).
Follow-up to the foundation commit. Drops the hand-rolled
try/catch + spinner injection + empty-state HTML + error-swallow
in seven sections by routing them through
`createDiscoverSectionController`. Each section keeps its existing
public function name + signature so callers, refresh buttons, and
dashboard wiring don't notice the swap.
Migrated:
- `loadDiscoverReleaseRadar` (Fresh Tape)
- `loadDiscoverWeekly` (The Archives)
- `loadDecadeBrowser` (Time Machine intro carousel)
- `loadGenreBrowser` (Browse by Genre intro carousel)
- `loadSeasonalPlaylist` (Seasonal Mix)
- `loadYourArtists`
- `loadBecauseYouListenTo`
Skipped (don't fit the controller's single-fetch / single-render-target
shape):
- `loadYourAlbums` — paginated grid + filters, updates four separate
UI elements (subtitle, filter chips, download button, grid).
- `loadSeasonalAlbums` — receives pre-fetched data from
`loadSeasonalContent`; no fetch URL to satisfy.
Hidden / dead sections (~13 of them — `loadPersonalized*`,
`loadDiscoveryShuffle`, `loadFamiliarFavorites`, `loadCache*`)
untouched in this pass. Separate audit commit will surface or kill
them.
Two side-effects worth noting:
- `loadDecadeBrowser` and `loadGenreBrowser` migrated for
completeness, but neither appears wired into `loadDiscoverPage` or
any inline handler. May be dead code — flagged for the audit pass.
- `loadSeasonalPlaylist` needs a per-load fetch URL (varies by
`currentSeasonKey`); worked around by recreating the controller
when the key changes. Cleaner option: extend the controller to
accept a `fetchUrl: () => string` callable form. Tracked in the
follow-up extension list below.
Controller extension candidates surfaced for follow-up:
- Callable `fetchUrl` (resolves the seasonal playlist
recreate-on-key-change hack)
- Explicit `isStale` / `onStale` hook (so Your Artists doesn't
fold stale handling into renderItems)
- `beforeLoad` / `ensureContentEl` hook (so Because You Listen To
can let the controller own the dynamic container creation)
- No-fetch `data:` mode (so render-only sections like Seasonal
Albums can use the controller too)
- `onSuccess(data)` hook (cleaner home for header / subtitle
side-effects vs folding them into renderItems)
Net: -76 lines in `discover.js` even after adding the per-section
render helpers. 2204/2204 full suite green. JS parses clean.
Every section on the discover page (Recent Releases, Your Artists,
Your Albums, Seasonal Albums, Seasonal Mix, Fresh Tape, The Archives,
Build Playlist, Time Machine, Browse by Genre, ListenBrainz Playlists,
Because You Listen To, plus ~13 hidden sections) currently
re-implements the same lifecycle by hand:
1. show a loading spinner in the carousel container
2. fetch the section's endpoint
3. parse the response, decide if the data is empty
4. either render the items, show an empty-state, or show an error
5. wire post-render handlers (download buttons, hover behavior, etc)
6. maybe expose refresh()
~30 sections worth of duplicated boilerplate, all subtly drifting.
Different empty-state messages. Different error handling (some
`console.debug`, some silently swallowed, some leave the spinner
spinning forever). Different sync-status icons (✓/⏳/✗ vs ♪/✓/✗).
No consistent error toast.
Lifted the lifecycle into a shared `createDiscoverSectionController`
in `webui/static/discover-section-controller.js`. Renderers stay
per-section because section data shapes legitimately differ — album
cards vs artist circles vs playlist tiles vs track rows. The
controller is the wrapper, not a forced visual abstraction.
Foundation contract:
createDiscoverSectionController({
id: 'recent-releases', // for diagnostic logging
contentEl: '#carousel', // selector or Element
fetchUrl: '/api/discover/...',
extractItems: (data) => [...], // pull list from response
renderItems: (items, data, ctx) => '<html>',
onRendered: (ctx) => { ... }, // optional post-render hook
loadingMessage / emptyMessage / errorMessage: copy
sectionEl + hideWhenEmpty: optional whole-section visibility
isSuccess / isEmpty: optional gate overrides
})
Returns `{ load, refresh, destroy, getState }`. Validates config up
front so misuse fails at register-time, not silently on load. Coalesces
concurrent loads (same in-flight promise returned) so a double-click
or repeated trigger doesn't double-fetch. `refresh()` bypasses the
coalesce so the refresh button always re-fires. Errors are logged
(console.debug by default, console.error when verboseErrors=true).
Renderer hook errors are caught + logged so a buggy render callback
can't tear down the controller — keeps the page resilient.
Migrated `Recent Releases` as the proof — simplest album-card shape,
no source-gating, no refresh button. Verified the contract covers it
end-to-end. The legacy `loadDiscoverRecentReleases` entry-point stays
public so existing callers don't change; internally it lazy-builds
the controller and triggers `load()`.
NOT in this commit:
- Other section migrations (one section per follow-up commit, keeps
reviews small + lets us sequence the work)
- Registry-driven section list (so the dead-section audit becomes
registry deletions instead of section-by-section removal)
- Global error toast wrapper
- Per-section "requires X primary source" gate
- Sync-status icon renderer unification
Once every section is on the controller, the discover-page cleanup
work (kill the 13 dead sections, standardize sync-status icons, add
error toasts) becomes single-line registry-level edits instead of
30 separate section-by-section rewrites.
2204/2204 full suite green. JS parses clean (`node --check`). Manual
smoke deferred until follow-up commits — Recent Releases unchanged
on the wire (same endpoint, same payload shape, same render output).
- `web_server.py` — `_SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION` 2.4.1 → 2.4.2
- `webui/static/helper.js` — flip the 2.4.2 WHATS_NEW header from
"Unreleased — 2.4.2 dev cycle" to "May 7, 2026 — 2.4.2 release"
so the per-version block stops being filtered out by
`_getLatestWhatsNewVersion`. Also bumps the safety-net default
inside that helper from 2.4.1 → 2.4.2.
- `.github/workflows/docker-publish.yml` — manual-trigger default
tag bumped to match.
Drive-by fix: escaped a stray single quote in the `Internal: Download
Engine` 2.4.2 entry that broke `node --check` on the file
(`orchestrator.client('soulseek')` inside a single-quoted desc string
silently terminated the string mid-entry). Pre-existing, unrelated to
the bump but caught while validating JS parse for the release.
VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS not rotated in this commit — separate
editorial pass.
Closes#513 (s66jones).
The artist detail page already showed a "Popular on Last.fm" sidebar —
list of an artist's top tracks by playcount, with a play button per row
but no download action. Issue #513 wanted a way to grab those tracks
the same way zotify let users grab "top X songs" without pulling the
full discography.
Pulls from the configured primary metadata source (Spotify
`artist_top_tracks`, Deezer `/artist/{id}/top`) when available, falls
back to the existing Last.fm display-only mode for sources that don't
expose popularity ranking (iTunes / Discogs / MusicBrainz). Source
label in the section title shifts to match.
Each row gets a hover-revealed download button that wishlists the
single track via the existing /api/add-album-to-wishlist endpoint
(preserves the track's real album metadata, so the wishlist worker
later places the file in its proper album folder).
A "Download All" footer button opens the standard download modal in
PLAYLIST context, not album context — the virtual playlist_id is
`top_tracks_<source>_<artistId>` which doesn't match any of the
album-prefix checks in `startMissingTracksProcess` (downloads.js).
That keeps `is_album_download=false`, so the master worker doesn't
inject a wrapper context as `_explicit_album_context`. Each track
downloads using its own real album metadata, files land in proper
per-album folders on disk (not a fake "Top Tracks" folder).
Backend additions:
- `SpotifyClient.get_artist_top_tracks(artist_id, country, limit)` —
wraps `spotipy.artist_top_tracks`, returns up to 10 tracks for the
market (Spotify's API cap). UI-side limit trim only.
- `DeezerClient.get_artist_top_tracks(artist_id, limit)` — wraps
`/artist/{id}/top?limit=N`, converts Deezer's raw shape to the same
Spotify-compatible dict layout (id, name, artists, album with
album_type / total_tracks / images, duration_ms, track_number,
disc_number) so downstream code doesn't branch on source.
- `GET /api/artist/<id>/top-tracks` — dispatches to whichever client
matches the primary source. Resolves per-source artist IDs from the
DB row first (matching what /discography already does) so a Spotify
ID in the URL still works when Deezer is primary, and vice versa.
Returns `{success, source, tracks, resolved_artist_id}` on hit;
`{success: False, reason: 'unsupported_source' | 'spotify_not_authenticated'
| 'deezer_unavailable' | 'no_tracks_found'}` on miss so the frontend
can decide whether to fall through to Last.fm.
Frontend:
- `_loadArtistTopTracks` tries the metadata source first, falls
through to the legacy `/api/artist/0/lastfm-top-tracks` call if the
source can't deliver. Section title and per-row UI shift based on
which source answered.
- New per-row `.hero-top-track-download` button (hover-revealed).
- New `.hero-top-tracks-download-all` footer button — only visible
when metadata-source mode rendered the list (Last.fm fallback hides
it since rows have no track IDs to download).
Tests: 10 new tests pin the client methods —
- Spotify: returns track list, honors UI limit cap, returns empty when
unauthed / artist_id missing / API throws.
- Deezer: shape conversion to Spotify-compatible dict, empty when no
data / artist_id missing, limit clamping at upper bound, default
fallback when limit=0, malformed entries skipped.
The Flask endpoint dispatcher itself isn't covered by the new test
file because importing web_server at test-collection time spins up
worker threads that race with caplog-using tests elsewhere in the
suite (specifically test_library_reorganize_orchestrator). Endpoint
verified manually; the underlying client methods (the load-bearing
logic) are covered.
2204/2204 full suite green (was 2194 + 10 new).
Discord report (corruption [BWC]): downloads coming through as the
instrumental cut when a vocal track was requested. The verification
step's `_normalize` function strips parentheticals and version-suffix
tags ("(Instrumental)", "- Live", etc) so legitimate name variations
don't false-fail the title-similarity check. That also means "In My
Feelings" and "In My Feelings (Instrumental)" both normalize to "in
my feelings", title similarity is 1.0, and the wrong cut passes
verification.
Detect the version label on each side BEFORE normalization runs. If
the expected and matched recordings disagree on version (one is
original, the other is instrumental / live / acoustic / remix /
etc), return FAIL — the fingerprint identified a real song, just
not the version the caller asked for.
Reuses `MusicMatchingEngine.detect_version_type` so the same regex
patterns the pre-download Soulseek matcher applies also drive
post-download verification. No duplicated tables.
Also gates the secondary fallback scan, so a wrong-version variant
sitting in the same fingerprint cluster can't win the loop after
the best match has already been version-rejected.
6 tests pin the behavior:
- instrumental returned for vocal request → FAIL
- vocal returned for instrumental request → FAIL
- live vs acoustic → FAIL
- matching versions on both sides → PASS
- original-to-original happy path → PASS (regression guard)
- secondary scan skips wrong-version recordings → not PASS
2194/2194 full suite green (was 2188 + 6 new).
Closes#515 (jaruca).
Search-picker controller in shared-helpers.js resolved the user's
configured primary metadata source by fetching `/api/settings`. That
endpoint is `@admin_only` (it returns full config including
credentials), so non-admin profiles got a 403 and the controller
silently fell back to the hardcoded `'spotify'` default — admin's
chosen source (deezer / itunes / discogs / etc) was ignored on every
non-admin profile, forcing manual reselection each session.
Switched to `/status`, which is public and already exposes the
resolved `metadata_source` for the dashboard. Same value the picker
needs — different endpoint that doesn't gate non-admins.
Admins see no behavior change. Non-admins now see admin's configured
primary source as the default active icon.
Refs #515
Catches the silent excepts the awk-based earlier sweeps missed:
- Bare `except:` followed by `pass` (also swallows KeyboardInterrupt
and SystemExit — actively wrong). Upgraded to `except Exception as
e: logger.debug("...: %s", e)`. ~14 sites across connection_detect,
soulseek_client, listenbrainz_manager, watchlist_scanner,
youtube_client, navidrome_client, jellyfin_client, web_server.
- `except Exception:` + pass that the awk pattern missed (e.g.
multi-line or unusual whitespace). ~31 sites across automation_engine,
database_update_worker, music_database, spotify_client, web_server,
others.
- 14 legitimate cleanup sites left silent with explicit `# noqa: S110`
+ comment explaining why (atexit handlers, finally-block conn.close
calls). Logging during shutdown can itself crash because file handles
get torn down before the handler fires.
Also enables `S110` rule in pyproject.toml so this pattern fails CI
going forward — drift fails at PR review instead of at runtime against
a wedged worker thread. Tests path keeps S110 ignored (test fixtures
legitimately use try-except-pass for cleanup).

Closes#369
Discord report: Duplicate Detector card said "372 findings" and Cover
Art Filler said "60 findings", but clicking the Findings tab's Pending
filter showed 0. User read it as "findings aren't being created" —
looked like a detector bug.
Actual cause: the badge sourced ``last_run.findings_created``
(historical "found in last scan") without considering current state.
After the user (or bulk-fix automation) resolved or dismissed those
findings, they no longer appeared on the Pending tab — but the badge
kept showing the last-scan number in red urgent styling.
Backend was correct end-to-end: detectors create pending rows,
bulk-fix moves them to resolved, Findings tab filters by status.
Only the badge display lied about current state.
Fix:
- ``RepairWorker._get_pending_count_by_job()`` — single SQL aggregation
returning ``{job_id: pending_count}`` for every job with pending
findings. O(1) lookup per job instead of N round trips.
- ``get_all_job_info()`` calls it once per request and adds
``pending_findings_count`` to each job's API response.
- ``enrichment.js`` job card now branches on the count:
- ``> 0`` → red ``"X pending"`` badge (urgent, action needed)
- ``= 0`` AND last scan found something → muted grey ``"X found in
last scan"`` (historical context, no action needed)
- New CSS class ``.repair-flow-badge.findings-historical`` for the
muted slate color so the two states are visually distinct.
User-visible result with the screenshotted state (372 dup / 60 cover-
art findings, all resolved):
- Before: red "372 findings" / "60 findings" — implied 432 things to
do, but Findings tab showed 0 pending
- After: grey "372 found in last scan" / "60 found in last scan" —
the badge text tells the user the count is historical, no surprise
when Pending is empty
Tests: 3 new tests in ``tests/test_create_finding_dedup_counter.py``
pin the per-job pending count helper:
- returns ``{job_id: count}`` based on status='pending' rows only;
resolved + dismissed rows excluded
- empty dict when no pending findings exist
- gracefully returns ``{}`` on DB error (badge falls back to
historical count via the existing JS ``or 0`` safety)
2188/2188 full suite green. Pure UI/state-display fix — no detector
logic, no backend behavior change.
GitHub issue #499 (@bafoed). Big initial sync of Spotify playlists
worked for 2-3 hours then downloads silently stopped:
- 3 active tasks stuck in "Searching" state, replaced every ~10 min
by different ones
- slskd UI showed no actual searches happening
- Debug log: orphaned-task count grew over time, no jobs executed
- Container restart was the only fix (bought another 2-3 hours)
- Not a rate limit (rates showed 0/min)
Root cause: ``core/soulseek_client.py`` constructed
``aiohttp.ClientSession()`` with no timeout at four sites. When slskd
hung on a request (overloaded, transient network blip, internal
stall), the HTTP call blocked indefinitely — and the worker thread
blocked with it. The download executor only has
``ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=3)``, so once 3 worker threads were
wedged on hung calls, no further downloads could start.
Batch-level "stuck detection" (10-minute timer in
``check_batch_completion_v2``) was correctly marking tasks
``not_found`` and trying to start replacements, but the executor pool
was exhausted — replacements queued forever inside the executor with
no thread to run them. Symptom: tasks rotating every ~10 min at the
batch level while the underlying executor stayed wedged.
Fix: bounded ``aiohttp.ClientTimeout`` (total 120s, connect 15s,
sock_read 60s) on every slskd ``ClientSession`` construction. Module-
level constant ``_SLSKD_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT`` so the four sites stay in
lockstep — future sites get the same protection by reusing the
constant.
Why these timeouts are safe:
- Every slskd API call is metadata-level (search submission, status
polls, download enqueue, transfer state queries). None stream
files — slskd handles file transfer via its own peer-to-peer
infrastructure entirely outside our HTTP requests.
- Legitimate metadata calls finish in seconds. 120s ceiling is
~50× the normal latency.
Timeout handling:
- ``asyncio.TimeoutError`` caught explicitly BEFORE the generic
``except Exception`` — surfaces "slskd timed out" specifically in
logs (debuggable instead of buried as "Error making API request").
- Returns None to the caller (same code path as a 5xx response or
any other failure). No new error path; callers already handle
None as "request failed".
- Worker thread unblocks immediately → executor pool stays healthy
→ downloads keep flowing.
Sites updated:
- ``_make_request`` (general /api/v0/ helper, line 152) — used for
every slskd API operation
- ``_make_direct_request`` (non-/api/v0/ helper, line 235)
- ``_explore_api_endpoints`` Swagger fetch (line 1566) — diagnostic
- ``_explore_api_endpoints`` per-endpoint probe (line 1617) —
diagnostic
Tests: 3 new tests in ``tests/downloads/test_soulseek_pinning.py``
pin:
- ``_SLSKD_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT`` is bounded (total set, ≤300s ceiling,
connect ≤60s) — guards against future regressions that drop or
unbound the timeout
- ``_make_request`` returns None on ``asyncio.TimeoutError`` rather
than raising — pins the caller contract
- ``_make_direct_request`` returns None on ``asyncio.TimeoutError``

GitHub issue #500 (@bafoed). Library Reorganize repair job moved
album tracks to single-template paths because of a fragile
classification heuristic. Concrete symptom: a track at
``Surf Curse/Surf Curse - Nothing Yet (2017)/01 - Christine F.flac``
got proposed for a move to
``Surf Curse/Surf Curse - Christine F/Surf Curse - Christine F.flac``
(single template) instead of staying under the album folder.
Root cause: the job had its own tag-reading + transfer-folder-walk +
template-application implementation. The classification was
``is_album = (group_size > 1)`` where ``group_size`` was the count
of same-album tracks currently sitting in the transfer folder being
scanned. Two failure modes:
- only one track of an album was in the transfer folder (rest already
moved to the library, or not yet downloaded), or
- album tags varied slightly across tracks (e.g. ``"Buds"`` vs
``"Buds (Bonus)"``)
Either case gave a 1-element group → routed through the SINGLE
template → wrong destination.
Rewrite — delegate to the per-album planner the artist-detail
"Reorganize" modal already uses:
- ``core.library_reorganize.preview_album_reorganize`` for path
computation (DB-driven, knows the album has N tracks regardless of
how many sit in transfer; album-vs-single is structurally correct)
- ``core.reorganize_queue.enqueue_many`` for apply mode; the queue
worker dispatches via ``reorganize_album`` which handles file move
+ post-processing + DB update + sidecar through the same code path
the per-album modal uses
Job's per-album loop:
- iterate albums for the active media server only (matches the artist-
detail modal's scope; multi-server users won't have the job touch
the inactive server's files at paths they can't see)
- preview each album, catch exceptions per-album so one bad row
doesn't abort the scan
- branch on planner status:
- ``no_album`` / ``no_tracks`` (race: album deleted mid-scan) →
skip silently
- ``no_source_id`` (album never enriched) → emit ONE album-level
"needs enrichment first" finding (vs N per-track findings cluttering
the UI)
- ``planned`` → filter mismatched tracks (matched + new_path +
not unchanged + file_exists), emit per-track findings (dry-run)
or collect album for bulk enqueue (apply)
- bulk enqueue at end of loop using the queue's correct return-shape
(``{'enqueued': N, 'already_queued': M, 'total': K}``)
What's gone (~500 LOC):
- ``_read_tag_metadata`` / ``_get_audio_quality`` / transfer-folder walk
- ``_load_album_years`` / ``_lookup_years_from_api`` (planner does this)
- ``_apply_path_template`` / ``_build_path_from_template``
- direct ``shutil.move`` + sidecar move logic (queue handles)
- the fragile ``is_album = group_size > 1`` heuristic — structurally gone
- ``move_sidecars`` setting (no longer applicable; queue's post-process
re-downloads cover art at the destination)
What stays:
- dry-run vs apply toggle
- ``file_organization.enabled`` gate
- stop / pause respect
- progress reporting
- findings for the UI
Cleaner separation of concerns:
- this job: DB-known tracks at wrong paths (active server only)
- ``orphan_file_detector``: files on disk with no DB entry
- ``dead_file_cleaner``: DB entries pointing to nonexistent files
Tests: 12 tests in ``tests/test_library_reorganize.py`` pin the
delegation contract — every status branch, every track-filter case,
exception handling, apply-mode enqueue payload, active-server scope,
estimate-scope shape. Three obsolete ``_lookup_years_*`` tests removed
(year handling moved to planner).
Closes#500 (the misclassification half — orphan + dead-file are
downstream sync-gap symptoms, separate concern).
GitHub issue #501 (@Tacobell444). After manually matching an album to
a specific source ID via the match-chip UI, clicking "Enrich" on that
album would fuzzy-search by name and overwrite the manual match with
whatever the search returned — or revert the match status to
``not_found`` if name search missed. Reorganize then read the now-
wrong ID and moved files to the wrong destination.
Root cause was in the per-source enrichment workers'
``_process_*_individual`` methods. Several workers (Spotify, iTunes)
ran search-by-name unconditionally with no check for an existing
stored ID. Others (Deezer, Tidal, Qobuz) skipped on existing-ID but
without refreshing metadata — preserved the ID but didn't actually
honor the user's intent of "use this match to pull fresh data".
Cin-shape lift: same fix needed in 5 workers, so extracted the shared
behavior into ``core/enrichment/manual_match_honoring.py``:
honor_stored_match(
db, entity_table, entity_id, id_column,
client_fetch_fn, on_match_fn, log_prefix,
) -> bool
Per-worker variability (DB column name, client fetch method, response
shape) plugs in via callbacks. Workers call the helper at the top of
``_process_album_individual`` / ``_process_track_individual``; if it
returns True, the manual match was honored and the search-by-name
fallback is skipped. If False (no stored ID, fetch failed, or empty
response), the worker's existing search-by-name flow runs as before.
Workers wired:
- spotify_worker — album + track (was overwriting; now honors)
- itunes_worker — album + track (was overwriting; now honors)
- deezer_worker — album + track (was skip-on-id; now refreshes)
- tidal_worker — album + track (was skip-on-id; now refreshes)
- qobuz_worker — album + track (was skip-on-id; now refreshes)
Workers left alone (already correct):
- discogs_worker — already had inline stored-ID fast path that
refreshes metadata. Same behavior, just inline; refactoring to use
the shared helper would be churn for zero behavior change.
- audiodb_worker — same — inline fast path with full metadata refresh.
- musicbrainz_worker — preserves existing MBID and marks status,
which is the correct behavior for MB (the MBID itself is the match
payload — no separate metadata fetch).
- lastfm_worker / genius_worker — name-based services with no
source-specific IDs to honor. Inherent re-search per call.
Reorganize fixed indirectly — it always honored stored IDs correctly
via ``library_reorganize._extract_source_ids``. The "Reorganize broken"
symptom was downstream of broken Enrich corrupting the stored ID.
Tests:
- ``tests/enrichment/test_manual_match_honoring.py`` — 11 tests
pinning the shared helper contract: stored-ID fast path, no-ID
fallthrough, empty-string treated as no ID, missing row, fetch
exception caught and falls through, fetch returns None falls
through, callback exceptions propagate, configurable table +
column, defensive table-name whitelist.
- Per-worker wiring NOT tested individually — the workers depend
on live DB / client objects that are heavy to mock. The shared
helper's contract is pinned; per-worker call sites are short
enough to verify by code review.

GitHub issue #503 (@hadshaw21). Adding a HiFi instance via downloader
settings popped up ``no such table: hifi_instances`` even though
"Test Connection" and "Check All Instances" both worked.
Root cause: ``MusicDatabase._initialize_database`` runs every
``CREATE TABLE`` + every migration step inside one sqlite transaction.
Python's sqlite3 module doesn't autocommit DDL by default, so if any
later migration step throws on a user's specific DB shape (e.g. an
old volume from a prior SoulSync version with quirky schema state),
the WHOLE batch rolls back — including the ``hifi_instances`` CREATE
that ran earlier in the function. The user's next boot retries init,
hits the same migration failure, rolls back again. The ``hifi_instances``
table never lands no matter how many restarts.
Fix: defensive lazy-create. New ``_ensure_hifi_instances_table(cursor)``
helper runs ``CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`` on demand, called immediately
before every CRUD operation that touches ``hifi_instances``:
- ``get_hifi_instances`` / ``get_all_hifi_instances`` (read)
- ``add_hifi_instance`` / ``remove_hifi_instance`` (CRUD)
- ``toggle_hifi_instance`` / ``reorder_hifi_instances`` (CRUD)
- ``seed_hifi_instances`` (defaults seed)
Idempotent — costs one no-op CREATE check when the table is already
present, fully recovers from a broken init state. Read methods now
return empty instead of raising when init failed; write methods work
end-to-end.
Doesn't paper over the underlying init issue (still worth tracking
which migration step breaks for which user DB shapes — separate
concern) but makes HiFi instance management self-healing in the
meantime.
Tests:
- 7 obsolete tests that pinned ``raises sqlite3.OperationalError``
removed — that contract is no longer correct
- 7 new tests pin the lazy-create behavior: every CRUD method works
against a DB that's missing the ``hifi_instances`` table, verifying
the table gets created and the operation completes
2162/2162 full suite green. Pure additive — no behavior change for
users with a healthy DB; affected users get back to working hifi
instance management.
Closes#503.
Followup to the all-libraries-mode commit. Without dedup, a Plex Home
family where two users both have "Drake" in their music libraries
would see "Drake" twice in SoulSync's library list — Plex returns
distinct ratingKeys for each section's copy of the same artist.
Dedup design — applied selectively, NOT everywhere:
- ``_dedupe_artists(artists)``: groups by lowercased title, picks
the canonical entry by ``leafCount`` (more tracks wins). Active
ONLY in all-libraries mode; single-library mode is a no-op fast
path with zero behavior change.
- ``_dedupe_albums(albums)``: same but keys on
(lowercased parentTitle, lowercased title) so two artists with
identically-titled albums (e.g. self-titled releases) stay
separate.
Applied to:
- ``get_all_artists()`` — public listing for the library view
- ``get_library_stats()`` — count matches what user sees in the list
Deliberately NOT applied to:
- ``get_all_artist_ids()`` / ``get_all_album_ids()`` — these feed
removal detection (compare returned ratingKey set against DB-linked
ratingKeys to decide what's been removed). Deduping here would falsely
flag non-canonical ratingKeys as "removed" and prune SoulSync's DB
tracks that are linked to them. Pinned by two CRITICAL tests.
- ``_all_tracks()`` — track count stays raw because the same track
in two sections IS two distinct files / Plex entries, not a logical
duplicate.
- ``_search_general()`` and ``search_tracks`` Stage 1/2 — search
results stay raw so cross-section matches aren't lost. Stage 1
may miss cross-section tracks for the same artist but Stage 2's
server-wide track search catches them.
Logging: when raw vs deduped artist counts differ, ``get_all_artists``
logs both so users can see "Found 4697 artists across all music
sections (4521 unique after cross-section dedup)" — surfaces the
overlap clearly.
Tests: 8 new tests in test_plex_all_libraries.py pin:
- canonical pick by leafCount (artists + albums)
- case-insensitive name match
- single-library no-op path (zero behavior change for those users)
- album dedup keys on (artist, title) so different-artist same-title
albums stay separate
- ``get_all_artists`` listing applies dedup
- ``get_all_artist_ids`` does NOT dedup (CRITICAL — removal detection)
- ``get_all_album_ids`` does NOT dedup (CRITICAL — removal detection)
- ``get_library_stats`` uses deduped counts for artists/albums but
raw count for tracks
Existing pre-stat test updated to use distinct mock instances —
``[MagicMock()] * 5`` creates five references to one mock which now
correctly collapses under dedup.
71/71 media_server tests green, 2162/2162 full suite green.
Honest known limitation acknowledged in WHATS_NEW + version modal:
write-back (genre / poster / metadata updates) targets one
ratingKey at a time — only updates the canonical section's copy of
an artist if it exists in multiple. Other section's copy stays
unchanged. Document and revisit if it matters.
GitHub issue #505 (PopeBruhLXIX): users with multiple Plex music
libraries (e.g. one per Plex Home user, or two folder roots split
across separate library sections) only saw one library inside SoulSync
because the connection settings forced you to pick a single library
section. SoulSync's PlexClient stored exactly one ``self.music_library``
section reference and every read scanned only that one.
This change adds an opt-in "All Libraries (combined)" dropdown option
that flips the client into a server-wide read mode where every read
method (``get_all_artists`` / ``get_all_album_ids`` /
``search_tracks`` / ``get_library_stats`` / etc) dispatches through
``server.library.search(libtype=...)`` instead of querying a single
section. One Plex API call replaces N per-section iterations; Plex
handles the aggregation server-side.
Implementation:
- ``ALL_LIBRARIES_SENTINEL`` (``'__all_libraries__'``) — module-level
constant used as the saved DB preference value when the user picks
the synthetic "All Libraries" entry. Detection is one string compare
in ``_find_music_library`` / ``set_music_library_by_name``. Existing
preferences (real library names) are unaffected.
- ``self._all_libraries_mode`` (private flag) + ``is_all_libraries_mode()``
(public accessor for external callers). When True, ``music_library``
may stay None — ``is_fully_configured()`` recognizes the mode and
still returns True so dispatch sites don't bail.
- New private helpers ``_can_query``, ``_get_music_sections``,
``_all_artists``, ``_all_albums``, ``_all_tracks``, ``_search_general``,
``_search_artists_by_name``. Single dispatch point for the
section-vs-server branch — every read method funnels through them
so future drift fails at one place.
- New public helpers for downstream callers:
- ``get_recently_added_albums(maxresults, libtype)`` — used by
DatabaseUpdateWorker's deep-scan recent-content sweep
- ``get_recently_updated_albums(limit)`` — same
- ``get_music_library_locations()`` — returns folder roots, used
by web_server.py's file-path resolver
- ``trigger_library_scan`` and ``is_library_scanning`` fan out across
every music section in all-libraries mode.
- ``get_available_music_libraries`` prepends a synthetic
``{'title': 'All Libraries (combined)', 'value': sentinel}`` entry
ONLY when more than one music library exists. Single-library users
don't get the extra option. ``value`` field is the canonical
identifier the frontend submits to ``/api/plex/select-music-library``
(real libraries: title; synthetic: sentinel string). Backward-
compatible — entries without ``value`` fall back to ``title``.
Three crash points fixed in downstream consumers (would have failed
during a deep scan after the user picked all-libraries mode):
1. ``database_update_worker.py:411`` — bailed out with "No music
library found in Plex" because ``not self.media_client.music_library``
evaluated True in all-libraries mode (music_library is None there).
Now uses ``is_fully_configured()`` which recognizes the mode.
This was the root cause of the deep scan never starting.
2. ``database_update_worker.py:_get_recent_albums_plex`` — reached
``self.media_client.music_library.recentlyAdded()`` /
``.search()`` directly, AttributeError in all-libraries mode.
Now routes through the new helper methods.
3. ``web_server.py:10947`` (file-path resolver) — accessed
``music_library.locations``; gated on ``music_library`` truthy so
it didn't crash, but silently skipped all-libraries-mode locations.
Now uses ``get_music_library_locations()`` which unions across
sections.
Plus polish:
- ``/api/plex/clear-library`` also resets ``_all_libraries_mode``
so a fresh "select library" flow doesn't inherit stale mode state.
- ``/api/plex/music-libraries`` surfaces "All Libraries (combined)"
as ``current_library`` when in mode (settings UI displays correctly).
- Frontend ``loadPlexMusicLibraries`` uses ``library.value || library.title``
so the sentinel-keyed option submits the sentinel string, not the
human-readable label. Pre-select match handles both paths.
Honest tradeoffs (documented as known limitations):
- Same artist appearing in multiple Plex sections shows as separate
entries in SoulSync (no dedup). Plex returns distinct ratingKeys
for each. Cosmetic; revisit if it bites users.
- Write-back (genre / poster updates) targets one ratingKey at a time
— only updates that section's copy. Other sections' copies stay
unchanged.
- All-libraries mode includes any audiobook library that Plex
classifies as ``type='artist'``. Edge case, opt-in only.
Tests: 21 new tests in tests/media_server/test_plex_all_libraries.py
pin both single-library mode (regression guard) and all-libraries mode
for every refactored method. Existing test_plex_pinning.py fixture
updated to initialize the new flag. 63/63 media_server tests green,

Two fixes.
(1) Discography endpoint now does server-side per-source ID resolution.
When the user clicked Download Discography on a library artist, the
endpoint received whichever artist ID the frontend happened to pick
(spotify_artist_id || itunes_artist_id || deezer_id || library_db_id)
and dispatched it as-is to whichever source it queried. If the picked
ID didn't match the queried source's ID format, the lookup returned
wrong-artist results (numeric ID collisions) or fell back to a fuzzy
name search that picked a wrong artist.
Two reproducible cases:
- 50 Cent's library row had DB id 194687 — coincidentally a real
Deezer artist ID for "Young Hot Rod". When the frontend's
/enhanced fetch silently fell back to the DB id, the backend
sent 194687 to Deezer, and Deezer returned Young Hot Rod's
50 albums in 50 Cent's discography modal.
- Weird Al's library row had a stored Spotify ID. The frontend
sent that to Deezer, which rejected the alphanumeric ID and
fell back to fuzzy name search — which picked The Beatles
somehow, returning 45 Beatles albums.
The mechanism for per-source ID dispatch already exists in
``MetadataLookupOptions.artist_source_ids``, and the watchlist scanner
already uses it; the on-demand discography endpoint just wasn't wired
to it. Fix: when the URL artist_id matches a library row by ANY stored
ID (DB id, spotify_artist_id, itunes_artist_id, deezer_id, or
musicbrainz_id), pull every stored provider ID and pass them as
``artist_source_ids``. Each source gets its OWN stored ID regardless
of which one the URL carries. When the URL ID is a non-library
source-native ID and the row lookup misses entirely, behavior is
identical to before (single-ID dispatch fallback).
Logged the resolved per-source ID dict at INFO so future "wrong artist
showed up" diagnostics are immediately legible in app.log.
(2) Logger namespace fix in core/artists/quality.py and
core/metadata/multi_source_search.py.
Both modules used ``logging.getLogger(__name__)`` which resolves to
``core.artists.quality`` / ``core.metadata.multi_source_search`` —
neither under the ``soulsync`` namespace where the file handler is
wired. Result: every [Enhance], [MultiSourceSearch], and direct-lookup
INFO line was being written to a logger with no handlers and silently
dropped. App log showed the slow-request warning but no diagnostic
detail. Switched both to ``get_logger()`` from utils.logging_config so
the soulsync.* namespace picks them up. Same content, now actually
lands in app.log. Confirmed working in live test:
``[Enhance] Direct lookup matched: deezer ID 1476162252 → 'Desastre'``
No behavior change in any other caller. Empty ``artist_source_ids``
(no library row matched) reaches lookup as ``None`` → identical to
current single-ID dispatch path. Logger fix is pure routing — no
content change.
Followup on the previous Enhance refactor. Multi-source parallel text
search closed the worst case (users with no Spotify/Deezer getting
"unknown artist - unknown album - unknown track" wishlist entries),
but text search itself is still fragile against messy library tags:
"Title (Live)", featured artists in the artist field, etc. Download
Discography never had this problem because it resolves albums by stable
ID, not by name.
Enhance now does the same thing for tracks: for every metadata source
the user has configured, if the library track has the corresponding
stored ID (spotify_track_id / deezer_id / itunes_track_id / soul_id),
call client.get_track_details(stored_id) directly and convert to the
wishlist payload. First success wins. The user's configured primary
source is tried first so a Deezer-primary user gets Deezer payloads on
the wishlist entry (correct cover art / album shape) even when other
sources also have stored IDs for the same track.
Multi-source parallel text search stays as the fallback for tracks
with no stored IDs (e.g. manually imported, never enriched). Empty-
field rejection still gates the wishlist add.
Implementation:
- _STORED_ID_COLUMNS: source name → DB column mapping
(Discogs intentionally omitted — release-based, no per-track IDs)
- _enhanced_to_wishlist_payload: converts the get_track_details
intermediate "enhanced" shape (artists as [str]) to wishlist shape
(artists as [{'name': str}]). Spotify's raw_data is already in
wishlist shape, returned as-is when detected (preserves full
album.images that the enhanced top-level fields drop)
- _try_direct_lookup_all_sources: iterates sources preferred-first,
calls get_track_details on each that has both a stored ID and a
configured client, returns first complete-metadata payload
- spotify_client field removed from ArtistQualityDeps (no longer
used — Spotify direct lookup now flows through the generic
per-source loop using the entry from search_sources)
- _try_upgrade_to_rich_payload removed (was Spotify-only with broken
shape semantics for non-Spotify sources; search-fallback now uses
_build_payload_from_track consistently)
- get_primary_source() consulted to set the per-call preferred source
for direct-lookup priority
Also fixed a stale UI string: the Enhance modal toast read "Matching
tracks to Spotify and adding to wishlist..." regardless of which
sources were actually configured. Now reads "Matching tracks across
metadata sources...".
Tests:
- _build_deps mirrors web_server._resolve_search_sources: passing
spotify=spotify_obj auto-prepends ('spotify', spotify_obj) to
search_sources (Spotify is always added when configured in prod)
- 5 new tests pin the direct-lookup behavior:
- test_direct_lookup_via_deezer_id_skips_text_search
- test_direct_lookup_via_itunes_id_skips_text_search
- test_direct_lookup_prefers_user_primary_source
- test_direct_lookup_falls_through_to_text_search_when_no_stored_ids
- test_direct_lookup_failure_falls_through_to_text_search
- Reframed enhanced-format and search-fallback tests for the new
payload-build path (no album-image side call, search-fallback uses
_build_payload_from_track consistently)
- 22/22 quality tests green, 2133/2133 full suite green.
Track Redownload had been doing parallel multi-source metadata search
across every configured source the whole time; Enhance Quality was
running a single-source primary fallback that returned junk matches
with empty fields when the primary was iTunes (Discord report:
"unknown artist - unknown album - unknown track" wishlist entries
for users with neither Spotify nor Deezer connected).
Lift the redownload search into core/metadata/multi_source_search.py
and point both flows at it. Same scoring, same per-source query
optimization (Deezer's structured artist:/track: form), same
current-match flagging via stored source IDs.
ArtistQualityDeps now takes get_metadata_search_sources (returns
[(name, client), ...] for every configured source) instead of the
single-primary get_metadata_fallback_client + get_metadata_fallback_source.
Spotify direct-lookup stays as a fast-path optimization (only Spotify
exposes get_track_details(id) returning rich raw payload); when it
doesn't fire, the multi-source parallel search picks the cross-source
best match. Empty-field matches still rejected before wishlist add.
Tests: _build_deps helper updated to accept the new search_sources
contract while preserving fallback_client/fallback_source ergonomics.
Reframed tests for the new semantics — direct-lookup is no longer
gated on Spotify being the active primary; failure reason now lists
every searched source. Added a test pinning the no-sources-configured
prompt. 17/17 quality tests green, 2128/2128 full suite green.
Discord report: clicking Enhance Quality on an artist with neither
Spotify nor Deezer connected added tracks to the wishlist as
"unknown artist - unknown album - unknown track".
Root cause was structural. core/artists/quality.py had a hardcoded
Spotify-direct → Spotify-search → iTunes-fallback chain that ignored
the user's configured primary metadata source. When Spotify wasn't
connected, every track fell through to an iTunes-only fallback that
occasionally returned matches with empty fields (cleared the 0.7
confidence threshold but missing artist / album / title). Those
empty strings propagated through the wishlist payload normalizer's
truthy-check passthrough at core/wishlist/payloads.py:77-80 and the
UI rendered them as "Unknown" defaults.
Rewrote the flow source-agnostic:
- ArtistQualityDeps gains get_metadata_fallback_source. Flow resolves
the user's active primary source once up front.
- New _build_payload_from_track helper produces the Spotify-shaped
wishlist payload from any source's Track object — single place
that knows how to construct it (replaces the duplicate construction
in the Spotify-search and iTunes-fallback paths).
- New _search_match helper does generic confidence-scored search
against any client implementing search_tracks(query, limit). Same
0.7 threshold, same album-bonus weighting as before.
- New _has_complete_metadata validator rejects matches with empty
title / album / artists before they reach the wishlist.
- _spotify_direct_lookup kept as a Spotify-only optimization (only
Spotify exposes get_track_details(id) returning rich raw payload);
other sources fall through to search.
- Failure reason now names the active source: "No usable {source}
match — connect another metadata source for better coverage".
Result: Discogs users get a Discogs search. Hydrabase users get a
Hydrabase search. iTunes users get an iTunes search with empty-field
rejection. Spotify keeps its direct-lookup fast path.
6 new tests pin the architectural change:
- Primary-source dispatch routes to the configured client (Discogs,
not Spotify) when Spotify isn't primary
- Spotify direct-lookup is gated on Spotify being the active primary
(skipped when Discogs is configured even if track has spotify_track_id)
- Empty title / album / artists fields all reject the match
- Failure reason names the active source
The "Media Server Engine Foundation" entry was written when the engine
still had safe-default routing wrappers for optional methods. Those
were dropped in the honesty pass. Entry now matches reality:
- Lists the actual engine surface (6 methods: client / active_client /
active_server / is_connected / configured_clients / reload_config)
instead of claiming "uniform safe defaults for optional methods"
- References KNOWN_PER_SERVER_METHODS as the data-only listing
(replaces the old OPTIONAL_METHODS naming)
- Cites real test counts (42 total) instead of the stale 35
- Drops the "33+ dispatch sites" overclaim (was already partial); the
actual framing is "uniform-shape chains lifted, ~18 server-specific
chains stay explicit per the lift-what's-truly-shared standard"
- services/sync_service.py: dropped unused PlexClient / JellyfinClient
/ NavidromeClient class imports. After the engine refactor the
service only needs TrackInfo for type annotations; the class
imports were dead.
- WHATS_NEW: extended the media server engine review-pass entry to
cover the followup commits (Cin-5 per-server global removal +
Gap 1 shared types lift) so the changelog matches the actual
branch state.
Four stale doc/comment references caught by Copilot's pass:
- core/download_plugins/base.py: TYPE_CHECKING comment said the
shared dataclasses lived in core.soulseek_client. They were moved
to core.download_plugins.types in this PR. Comment updated.
- core/qobuz_client.py: reload_credentials docstring still referenced
soulseek_client.client('qobuz') after the global rename to
download_orchestrator. Updated to download_orchestrator.client(...).
- webui/static/helper.js: the older WHATS_NEW entries for the plugin
contract + engine refactor still claimed backward-compat
self.<source> attributes were preserved. Followup commits in the
same PR removed them. Each entry now flags the followup explicitly
and points at the "Drop Backward-Compat Per-Source Attrs" entry
above it so the changelog is internally consistent.
- docs/download-engine-refactor-plan.md: Compatibility commitments
section listed orchestrator.<source> attribute preservation as a
guarantee. Cin's review pass removed those attrs (and renamed the
global handle from soulseek_client to download_orchestrator) — both
are breaking changes for in-tree callers (which were migrated) and
in-flight branches (which will need to update). Section rewritten
to document the actual outcome.
The earlier validation-only filter only ran in the auto-search
scoring path. SoundCloud preview snippets still leaked through:
- The candidate-review modal cached raw search results (pre-validation),
so previews were visible and clickable for manual retry — and the
manual-pick download path bypassed validation entirely, downloading
the preview anyway.
- The not-found raw-results cache stored unfiltered top-20s.
Lift the preview filter into a reusable filter_soundcloud_previews()
helper and apply it at every entry point: validation scoring (still),
modal-cache fallback when validation drops everything, and the
not-found raw-results path. Previews now never reach the cache, the
matcher, or the manual-pick UI. Drops candidates < 35s or below half
the expected duration, gated on expected > 60s so genuine short
tracks still pass. 7 new unit tests pin the helper.
Also fixed a silent regression in core/downloads/task_worker.py's
hybrid-fallback path. Cin-5 dropped the per-source attrs from the
orchestrator (orch.soulseek, orch.youtube, etc.), but the fallback
loop still resolved sources via getattr(orch, '<src>', None) — every
lookup silently returned None, so remaining_sources came back empty
and the fallback never ran. Now uses orch.client(name) like the rest
of the codebase. Updated the test fake to expose client() too — the
old test was passing because the loop was effectively dead.
SoundCloud serves a ~30s preview clip for tracks gated behind Go+
or login (extremely common for major-label uploads — what's actually
on SoundCloud is bootlegs, fan reuploads, type beats, and these
previews). yt-dlp accepts the preview as the download payload, the
post-download integrity check catches the duration mismatch and
quarantines the file, but the user only sees "all candidates failed"
with no obvious explanation.
Filter at validation time when we know expected_duration: drop
SoundCloud candidates whose duration is below half the expected
length OR within ~5s of the 30s preview boundary, gated on
expected being non-trivially long (>60s) so genuinely short tracks
still pass through.
Two architectural cleanups on top of the download engine refactor.
(1) Shared dataclasses move to neutral plugin package.
TrackResult, AlbumResult, DownloadStatus, SearchResult lived in
core/soulseek_client.py for historical reasons — every other plugin
imported them from the soulseek module just to satisfy the contract,
coupling 8 clients to a sibling source for type imports only. Moved
them to the new core/download_plugins/types.py module and updated all
14 import sites across the deezer/hifi/lidarr/qobuz/soundcloud/tidal/
youtube clients, the engine, matching engine, redownload helper, and
tests. Clean break, no backward-compat re-export.
(2) web_server.py boots the orchestrator via the singleton factory.
After construction it now calls set_download_orchestrator(...) so
get_download_orchestrator() returns the same instance the global
handle points at instead of lazily building a separate orchestrator.
Matches the get_metadata_engine() pattern.
The global handle in web_server.py was named soulseek_client for
historical reasons but the type has long been DownloadOrchestrator,
not SoulseekClient. Renamed the global plus every parameter/attribute
that carried the legacy name.
- web_server.py: global var renamed; all 99 references updated.
- api/, core/downloads/*, core/search/*, core/streaming/*,
services/sync_service.py: parameter names, dataclass fields, and
init() arg names renamed.
- Test fixtures (CandidatesDeps, MasterDeps, SearchDeps, etc.) and
the _build_deps helpers updated accordingly.
The core.soulseek_client module path and SoulseekClient class name
(the actual soulseek-only client) are unchanged — only the orchestrator
handle renamed. Module imports of TrackResult/AlbumResult/DownloadStatus
from core.soulseek_client preserved.
Removed the eight backward-compat attribute aliases on the orchestrator
(soulseek, youtube, tidal, qobuz, hifi, deezer_dl, lidarr, soundcloud).
External callers and the orchestrator's own internals now reach clients
through the generic alias-aware client(name) accessor.
- core/downloads/{master,monitor,validation}.py: migrated to client().
Monitor's per-source aggregation loop replaced with a single
engine.get_all_downloads() call.
- core/search/{orchestrator,stream}.py: migrated; stream.py drops the
hand-built mode-to-client dict.
- web_server.py: migrated /api/deezer/arl-* + tidal client lookup.
- core/download_orchestrator.py: internal self.soulseek /
self.deezer_dl reaches now route through self.client(); attr
assignments dropped from __init__; module docstring updated.
- Test fakes (_FakeSoulseek, _FakeSoulseekWithYT) expose client(name)
instead of stuffing per-source attributes.
- Conformance test re-pinned to the client() accessor contract.
Three correctness fixes from kettui's PR review plus the web_server
migration to generic accessors.
- Engine alias map: register_plugin accepts aliases tuple; get_plugin
+ cancel_download resolve through it. Fixes deezer_dl cancels
silently routing to soulseek.
- Orchestrator hybrid_order normalization: _resolve_source_chain
routes raw config names through registry.get_spec() so legacy
deezer_dl entries don't drop deezer from hybrid mode.
- Atomic update_record_unless_state on the engine: holds state_lock
across the check + write. Both _mark_terminal AND the success path
use it now so a Cancelled state set mid-impl can't be clobbered.
- web_server.py: 30 soulseek_client.<source> reaches migrated to
client("<source>"); shutdown-check setup migrated to generic
registry iteration; 4 hifi reload sites use reload_instances('hifi').
- 18 new tests pin every fix.
Internal-track entry covering the media server engine + contract +
the honest-scope note explaining why we lifted the 4 truly-uniform
is_connected dispatches and left the deep server-specific dispatches
explicit (each does fundamentally different work per server, so
lifting would just move per-server branches into engine helper
methods).
Internal-track entry covering the engine package, background
download worker, state lift, rate-limit policy declarations,
and hybrid fallback chain. Mentions the ~700 LOC reduction +
85 new tests + zero behavior change.
19 parametrized tests pin every registered plugin class's
structural conformance to DownloadSourcePlugin: every required
method present + async-ness matches the protocol. Drift in any
source fails at the test boundary instead of at runtime against
a live download.
Class-level checks (not instance-level) — instantiating real
clients in fixtures pollutes module state via tidalapi etc.
imports and breaks downstream tests.
Companion to the badge count fix. When the findings tab opens with
the default "pending" filter and returns 0 rows but other statuses
(resolved/dismissed/auto-fixed) do have rows, the filter
auto-switches to "All Status" and a small notice explains the
switch. Stops the empty "all clear" state from masking carry-over
findings from prior scans.
`_create_finding` silently dedup-skipped re-discovered issues but
the caller incremented `findings_created` regardless. So a re-scan
that found the same issues as a prior scan reported 364 findings
in the badge while 0 NEW pending rows hit the db, leaving the
findings tab empty.
`_create_finding` now returns bool (True on insert, False on
dedup-skip / db error). All 16 repair jobs updated to only
increment `findings_created` on True. Added `findings_skipped_dedup`
counter surfaced in scan log: "Done: X scanned, 0 fixed, 0
findings (363 already existed), 0 errors".
Also fixed a missing `job_id` kwarg in album_tag_consistency that
was silently breaking finding creation for that scan.
Three more album-shape consumers now route through
Album.from_<source>_dict() when caller passes a known source:
- _build_discography_release_dict (artist discography cards)
- _build_artist_detail_release_card (artist detail release cards)
- _normalize_track_album (quality scanner result normalization)
Legacy duck-typing stays as fallback for unknown source,
non-dict input, or converter errors. Pure additive — existing
callers without source kwarg unchanged.
Steps 2+3 of typed metadata migration. Two album-info builders now
route through Album.from_<source>_dict() when caller passes a
known source:
- _build_album_info (album-tracks lookups)
- _build_single_import_context_payload (single-track import context)
Legacy duck-typing stays as fallback for unknown source, non-dict
input, or converter errors. Pure additive — existing callers
without source kwarg unchanged.
New core/metadata/types.py with canonical dataclasses + classmethod
converters for spotify/itunes/deezer/discogs/musicbrainz/hydrabase.
Each converter is the single place that knows that provider's wire
shape — addresses the duck-typing pattern Cin flagged.
Pure additive: no consumer code changed. Follow-up PRs migrate
consumers one at a time. Migration plan at
docs/metadata-types-migration.md.
Tests: 32 cases pin per-provider semantics + cross-provider
invariants. Also stabilized a flaky discogs test that depended on
local config state.
The Your Albums sources modal silently bailed on toggle clicks for
disconnected sources — toggle did nothing, no feedback, users had no
way to know why. Surfaced when users tried to enable Discogs without
having set a Discogs token first; same UX gap existed for the other
sources too but went unreported because most users have Spotify
connected by default.
Added per-source hint messages so the toast tells users exactly
where to set up credentials. Bonus: subtitle update after save now
includes 'discogs' in the source-name map (was undefined before,
fell through to lowercase 'discogs' in the rendered text).
Affects only the Your Albums sources modal — toggle behavior
unchanged for connected sources.
Discord request: pull user's Discogs collection into the Your Albums
section on Discover, similar to how Spotify Liked Albums works.
Implementation extends the existing 3-source pipeline (Spotify /
Tidal / Deezer) to a 4-source pipeline with click-context dispatch —
Discogs-only albums open with rich Discogs release detail (vinyl/CD
format, year, label, country, tracklist). Mirrors the per-source
dispatch pattern from enhanced/global search.
Discogs client (`core/discogs_client.py`):
- New `get_authenticated_username()` resolves the username for the
configured personal token via Discogs's `/oauth/identity` endpoint.
Cached on the instance so subsequent collection page-fetches don't
re-hit it.
- New `get_user_collection(username=None, folder_id=0, per_page=100,
max_pages=50)` walks all pages of `/users/{username}/collection/
folders/{folder_id}/releases`. Returns normalized dicts ready for
upsert_liked_album. folder_id=0 = Discogs's "All" folder.
Pagination cap of max_pages*per_page = 5000 releases — bounds
runtime on heavy collections.
- New `get_release(release_id)` thin wrapper for `/releases/{id}` —
returns the raw API response so the album-detail endpoint can
render rich context.
- Both methods defensive: missing token → empty list, malformed
responses → skipped, falsy ids → None. Disambiguation suffix
stripping (`Madonna (3)` → `Madonna`) so Discogs artist names
match what Spotify/Tidal/Deezer use.
Schema (`database/music_database.py`):
- New `discogs_release_id TEXT` column on `liked_albums_pool`.
Migration uses the established `try SELECT, except ALTER TABLE`
pattern. Idempotent; safe on existing installs.
- Added the column to the canonical CREATE TABLE for fresh installs.
- `upsert_liked_album` extended with `'discogs': 'discogs_release_id'`
in BOTH the INSERT and UPDATE id-column maps so Discogs source_id
routes to the new column. INSERT statement column count + value
count updated together.
Backend (`web_server.py`):
- `/api/discover/your-albums/sources` — adds Discogs to the
`connected` list when `discogs.token` config is set.
- `_fetch_liked_albums` — new branch for Discogs. Lazy-imports
DiscogsClient, respects the `enabled_sources` config, walks the
collection, upserts each release. Same try/except shape as the
existing source branches.
- `/api/discover/album/<source>/<album_id>` — new `discogs` branch
fetches the release via DiscogsClient.get_release, normalizes the
Discogs tracklist format, parses Discogs's `MM:SS`/`HH:MM:SS`
duration strings to milliseconds, returns the same response shape
as the Spotify/Deezer/iTunes branches.
Frontend (`webui/static/discover.js`):
- `openYourAlbumsSourcesModal` — adds Discogs to `sourceInfo` with
the vinyl emoji icon. Existing toggle/save plumbing handles it.
- `openYourAlbumDownload` — restructured the per-source dispatch:
builds an ordered list of (source, id) tuples, tries each in turn,
breaks on the first successful response. Pure-Discogs albums go
straight to the Discogs detail endpoint → modal opens with Discogs
context. Multi-source albums prefer Spotify/Deezer first since
their tracklists carry proper streaming IDs ready for download.
Tests: `tests/test_discogs_collection_source.py` — 12 cases:
- get_user_collection: empty without token, normalizes response
shape, strips disambiguation suffix, handles missing year, skips
malformed releases, paginates correctly, caps at max_pages,
uses explicit username when provided.
- get_release: passes id through to /releases/{id}, returns None
for invalid ids without API call.
- liked_albums_pool: discogs_release_id round-trips through upsert
+ get; multi-source dedup carries both Spotify and Discogs IDs
on the same row.
Verified: full suite 1825 pass (12 new), ruff clean, smoke test
populating + reading the discogs_release_id column round-trips
correctly via the real DB.
WHATS_NEW entry under '2.4.2' dev cycle.
Discover page used to show two near-identical sections:
- "Your Albums" — cross-source aggregator across Spotify / Deezer /
etc with a gear button to configure sources, search, status filter,
sort options, and a download-missing action.
- "Your Spotify Library" — Spotify-only with the same grid UI, same
refresh / download-missing buttons, same filter / sort controls.
The Spotify-only section was a strict subset of what Your Albums
already covers (Spotify is one of the configurable sources). User
flagged the redundancy when scoping the upcoming Discogs integration
and asked for the duplicate to be removed.
Removal scope:
- `webui/index.html` — drop the `#spotify-library-section` block (42
lines).
- `webui/static/discover.js` — drop the dead JS (~335 lines): state
vars `spotifyLibraryAlbums` / `spotifyLibraryPage` / etc, all the
loaders / renderers / pagination / click handlers, and the
`loadSpotifyLibrarySection()` call in `loadDiscoverPage`'s
Promise.all.
- `webui/static/helper.js` — drop the helper annotation entry at
`#spotify-library-section` and the matching guided-tour entry.
Backend untouched. The Spotify saved-albums cache
(`spotify_library_albums` table + watchlist_scanner upsert/cleanup
+ `/api/discover/spotify-library` endpoint + the DAO methods) is
shared infrastructure that Your Albums reads from when Spotify is
one of its configured sources. Removing the UI section just removes
the duplicate surface — Spotify saved albums still appear in Your
Albums via the existing source dispatch.
CSS class names (`.spotify-library-grid`, `.spotify-library-search`,
`.spotify-library-pagination`) intentionally remain on the surviving
Your Albums elements — they share the same visual styling and
renaming would be churn for no benefit.
Verified: full suite 1813 pass (no new tests — pure UI/dead-code
removal). Backend endpoint behavior unchanged. WHATS_NEW entry
under '2.4.2' dev cycle.
Discord request (Samuel [KC]): show how much disk space the library
takes on the Stats page. Implementation piggybacks on the existing
deep scan — Plex/Jellyfin/Navidrome all return file size in their
track API responses, so we read it during the deep scan and store
it on the tracks row. Aggregation is then a single SQL query — no
filesystem walk, no extra I/O during the scan, no separate stat
job. SoulSync standalone gets size from os.path.getsize at insert
time (different code path; the file is local when we write the row).
Schema (`database/music_database.py`):
- New `file_size INTEGER` column on `tracks`. Migration uses the
established `try SELECT, except ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN` pattern.
Idempotent; safe on existing installs. NULL on legacy rows so
they don't contribute to totals until next deep scan refreshes.
- Added the column to the canonical CREATE TABLE so fresh installs
get it without going through the migration path.
Track-object plumbing:
- `core/jellyfin_client.py` — JellyfinTrack reads MediaSources[0].Size
alongside existing Bitrate read. None when 0 / missing.
- `core/navidrome_client.py` — NavidromeTrack reads `size` from
the Subsonic song object (int coercion + None on parse fail).
- `core/soulsync_client.py` — SoulSyncTrack does os.path.getsize
(only "server" where size has to come from disk).
- Plex needs no client-side change: track.media[0].parts[0].size
is read directly inside insert_or_update_media_track.
Persistence — TWO separate insert paths:
(a) `database/music_database.py:insert_or_update_media_track` —
Plex/Jellyfin/Navidrome flows. Reads file_size from Plex's
MediaPart OR `track_obj.file_size` wrapper attribute (defensive
Plex-attr-not-present check + > 0 type guard).
INSERT writes the new column.
UPDATE uses COALESCE(?, file_size) so a None from the server
on a re-sync (rare Jellyfin Size omission) doesn't blank an
existing value. Pinned via test.
(b) `core/imports/side_effects.py:record_soulsync_library_entry` —
SoulSync standalone flow. Completely separate code path: the
standalone deep scan moves files to staging for auto-import
rather than calling insert_or_update_media_track. After the
auto-import processes them, side_effects writes the tracks row
directly. Reads file_size via os.path.getsize(final_path) at
insert time (file is local) and includes it in the INSERT
column list. SoulSync only does INSERT-if-not-exists (no
UPDATE path), so no COALESCE concern.
Aggregator (`database/music_database.py:get_library_disk_usage`):
- SELECT COALESCE(SUM(file_size), 0), COUNT(file_size),
COUNT(*) - COUNT(file_size) for the totals.
- Per-format breakdown done in Python via os.path.splitext over
(file_path, file_size) rows — sidesteps SQLite's first-vs-last-dot
ambiguity for paths like /music/Kendrick/M.A.A.D City/01.flac.
- Defensive: skips empty paths, paths without extension, and
implausibly long extensions (>6 chars). Returns the full
empty-shape dict (NOT a partial / undefined) when the column
doesn't exist or queries fail, so the UI's `if (!data.has_data)`
branch handles fresh installs cleanly.
API + UI:
- `core/stats/queries.py` — thin pass-through get_library_disk_usage
matching the existing query-helper convention.
- `web_server.py` — new /api/stats/library-disk-usage endpoint
mirroring the /api/stats/db-storage pattern.
- `webui/index.html` — new card in System Statistics above the
Database Storage card.
- `webui/static/stats-automations.js` — _loadLibraryDiskUsage +
_renderLibraryDiskUsage. Empty state: "Run a Deep Scan to
populate (X tracks pending)". Partial: "X measured (+Y pending)".
Full: total + format bars proportional to the largest format.
- `webui/static/style.css` — .stats-disk-* styled to match the
Database Storage card.
Backward compatibility:
- Migration is additive; existing rows get NULL file_size; the
empty-shape return from the aggregator means the UI renders
cleanly without errors before any deep scan runs.
- Old installs upgrading will see "Run a Deep Scan to populate
(N tracks pending)". Running their next deep scan fills sizes —
the existing scan flow doesn't need any changes, just consumes
the new track-wrapper attribute.
Tests:
- `tests/test_library_disk_usage.py` — 13 cases covering schema
migration, NULL defaults on legacy inserts, fresh-install empty
shape, summing with mixed NULL/known sizes, per-format breakdown,
mixed-case extensions, paths with album-name dots, missing
extensions, empty file_path, implausibly long extensions,
JellyfinTrack.file_size persistence via insert_or_update_media_track,
COALESCE preservation on null re-sync.
- `tests/imports/test_import_side_effects.py` — extended the
existing record_soulsync_library_entry test to assert
track_row['file_size'] == os.path.getsize(final_path), pinning
the SoulSync-standalone path. Test fixture's tracks schema also
updated to include the file_size column.
Verified: full suite 1813 pass (13 new, 1 existing-test extension),
ruff clean, smoke test populating + reading the column round-trips
correctly.
WHATS_NEW entry under '2.4.2' dev cycle.
User report: every downloaded track in an album came out with
``replaygain_track_gain: +52.00 dB`` regardless of actual loudness.
Root cause: the parser at ``core/replaygain.py:79`` used
``re.search('I:\s+...')`` which returns the FIRST match. ffmpeg's
ebur128 filter emits ``I:`` per measurement window (running partial
integrated loudness) AND in a final Summary block. The first
per-window reading is at t=0.5s — almost always ~-70 LUFS because
nearly every track starts with silence / encoder padding. So:
gain = RG2_reference - lufs = -18 - (-70) = +52.00 dB
…on EVERY track. Same regex pattern, same first per-window match,
same +52 dB written to every file's REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN tag.
Verified by running ffmpeg ebur128 against a real generated FLAC
and inspecting the stderr output — first per-window line at t=0.5s
shows ``I: -70.0 LUFS`` (silent intro), and the Summary block at
the end shows the real integrated value (e.g. ``I: -27.8 LUFS``
for the test sine wave). Old code captured the -70.0 reading.
Fix: anchor LUFS parsing to the ``Summary:`` block via
``stderr.rfind('Summary:')``. The Summary block is always emitted
last and contains the authoritative final integrated loudness.
Peak parsing already worked correctly (per-window output uses
``TPK:``/``FTPK:`` labels; only the Summary uses ``Peak:``), but
applied the same Summary anchor for consistency.
Defensive fallback: if no Summary block is present (truncated
output / unusual ffmpeg version), use the LAST per-window reading
instead of the first. Still better than the buggy first-window
behavior.
Smoke verified end-to-end: a freshly-generated FLAC of a -24 dBFS
sine wave now reports LUFS=-27.80, gain=+9.80 dB (correct, was
+52.00 before fix).
Tests: ``tests/test_replaygain_summary_parse.py`` — 7 cases pinning
the parser behavior with realistic ffmpeg ebur128 stderr samples:
- Summary value parsed correctly even when first per-window is -70
- Resulting gain is realistic (NOT +52)
- Two tracks with same first per-window but different summaries get
different LUFS (regression assertion for "all tracks same gain")
- Per-window reading higher than Summary doesn't leak through
- Fallback to last per-window when Summary absent
- Clean RuntimeError raised when no LUFS values anywhere
- Peak still correctly anchored to Summary
Verified: full suite 1800 pass (7 new), ruff clean.

User caught downloading Kendrick Mr. Morale: three tracks (Rich
Interlude, Savior Interlude, Savior) showed ✅ Completed in the modal
but were missing on disk. Log forensics revealed two layered bugs.
Bug 1 — Verification wrapper assumed success on quarantined files
(`core/imports/pipeline.py`):
The outer `post_process_matched_download_with_verification` had a
fallback at the "no `_final_processed_path` in context" branch that
marked the task completed and notified `success=True`. The inner
post-processor sets `_final_processed_path` only when the file
actually reaches its destination. Integrity-rejected files
(`_integrity_failure_msg` set) and race-guard-failed files
(`_race_guard_failed` set) get quarantined or skipped without ever
setting `_final_processed_path`, so they fell straight into the
"assume success" branch.
Confirmed in user's log:
No _final_processed_path in context for task d5b88b84-... —
cannot verify, assuming success
That line fired for the same task right after the integrity check
quarantined the source file. Result: ✅ Completed in UI, file in
quarantine, never delivered.
Fix: explicit checks for `_integrity_failure_msg` and
`_race_guard_failed` markers BEFORE the assume-success fallback.
Either marker set → task status='failed' with descriptive
error_message + `_notify_download_completed(success=False)`. The
pre-existing assume-success behavior preserved when no failure
markers are set (some legitimate flows complete without setting
`_final_processed_path`).
Bug 2 — AcoustID skip-logic too lenient
(`core/acoustid_verification.py`):
The "language/script" exemption was:
if best_score >= 0.95 and (title_sim >= 0.55 or
artist_sim >= ARTIST_MATCH_THRESHOLD):
The OR-clause fired for English-vs-English titles by the same artist
that share NO actual content. Confirmed in user's log: requested
"Rich (Interlude)" by Kendrick Lamar, AcoustID identified the audio
as "R.O.T.C. (interlude)" by Kendrick Lamar (a totally different
song from his 2010 mixtape) — same artist scored ≥ARTIST threshold,
shared word "interlude" pushed title_sim above 0.55, skip fired.
Verification returned SKIP instead of FAIL, the wrong file was
accepted as the answer for three different track requests.
Fix: skip now requires positive evidence the mismatch is a real
language/script case:
(a) Non-ASCII chars present in either title AND artist matches strongly
→ real transliteration case (kanji ↔ romaji etc)
(b) BOTH title_sim >= 0.80 AND artist_sim >= ARTIST threshold
→ minor punctuation/casing differences
English-vs-English with very different titles by the same artist no
longer skipped — verification correctly returns FAIL, the wrong file
gets quarantined, the new wrapper logic above marks the task failed.
Tests:
- `tests/test_integrity_failure_marks_task_failed.py` — 4 cases
pinning the wrapper-level state machine: integrity marker → failed,
race-guard marker → failed, no markers → still assumes success
(legacy path preserved), integrity-failure-takes-priority over
missing-final-path fallback.
- `tests/test_acoustid_skip_logic.py` — 7 cases pinning the skip
exemption: user's R.O.T.C-vs-Rich case → FAIL (regression test),
Savior-vs-R.O.T.C → FAIL (same bug surface), Japanese kanji →
romaji → SKIP (real language case still works), MAAD vs M.A.A.D →
PASS or SKIP (punctuation tolerance), low fingerprint score →
never skipped, high score but artist mismatch → no longer skipped,
Crown vs Crown of Thorns → no longer skipped.
Verified: full suite 1793 pass (11 new), ruff clean.

Discord report (Samuel [KC]): tracks of the same album sometimes carry
different MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMID tags, which causes Navidrome (and other
media servers grouping by album MBID) to split the album into multiple
entries. Two-part fix — one for existing libraries, one for the root
cause that lets new imports drift.
Part 1 — Detector + fix action (catches existing dissenters):
`core/repair_jobs/mbid_mismatch_detector.py`:
- New helpers: `_read_album_mbid_from_file` and
`_write_album_mbid_to_file` use the Picard-standard tag conventions
(`TXXX:MusicBrainz Album Id` for MP3, `MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMID` for
FLAC/OGG, `----:com.apple.iTunes:MusicBrainz Album Id` for MP4).
- New scan phase `_scan_album_mbid_consistency` runs after the
existing track-MBID scan: groups tracks by DB `album_id`, reads
each track's embedded album MBID, finds the consensus
(most-common) MBID via `Counter`, flags dissenters. Tracks without
an album MBID at all are skipped (they don't break Navidrome —
only an explicit MBID disagreement does). Albums where MBIDs are
perfectly tied (no clear consensus) are skipped too — surface as
a manual decision instead of fixing toward a 1/N tie.
- New finding type `album_mbid_mismatch` carries `consensus_mbid`,
`wrong_mbid`, `consensus_count`, `total_tracks_with_mbid`, and a
human-readable reason string.
`core/repair_worker.py`:
- Added `'album_mbid_mismatch': self._fix_album_mbid_mismatch` to the
fix dispatch dict and to the `fixable_types` tuple so auto-fix +
bulk-fix paths pick it up.
- New `_fix_album_mbid_mismatch` method reads `consensus_mbid` from
finding details, resolves the dissenter's file path via the shared
library resolver, calls `_write_album_mbid_to_file` to rewrite the
tag in place. Doesn't touch the album's other tracks (they're
already in agreement).
Part 2 — Root cause fix (prevents new SoulSync imports from drifting):
The original in-memory `mb_release_cache` in `core/metadata/source.py`
maps `(normalized_album, artist) -> release_mbid` so per-track
enrichment of the same album hits the cache and writes the same
MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMID to every track. That cache is bounded (4096
entries) and in-process — so cache eviction (when other albums are
processed in between) and server restart can BOTH cause
inconsistency. Per-track album-name variation (e.g. some tracks
tagged `"Album"`, others tagged `"Album (Deluxe)"`) and per-track
artist variation (features) make it worse.
`core/metadata/album_mbid_cache.py` (new module):
- DB-backed `lookup(normalized_album, artist) -> release_mbid` and
`record(...)` functions. Same key shape as the in-memory cache.
- Strict additive design: every public function is wrapped in
try/except and degrades to None / no-op on ANY database error.
The existing in-memory cache + MusicBrainz lookup remains the
authoritative fallback. If this module breaks, downloads continue
exactly as they would today.
`database/music_database.py`:
- New `mb_album_release_cache` table with composite primary key
`(normalized_album_key, artist_key)`. Reverse-lookup index on
`release_mbid` for future debug tooling. Created via the existing
`CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS` migration pattern — idempotent, no
schema version bump needed.
`core/metadata/source.py`:
- Surgical change inside the existing `embed_source_ids`
in-memory-cache-miss branch: BEFORE calling MusicBrainz, consult
the persistent cache. If a previous SoulSync run already resolved
this album's release MBID, reuse it. After a successful MB lookup,
store in BOTH caches. Both calls wrapped in defensive try/except
so any failure falls through to existing logic.
Tests:
- `tests/metadata/test_album_mbid_cache.py` — 16 cache tests:
round-trip, idempotent re-record, overwrite semantics, clear_all,
album+artist independence (no Greatest Hits collisions),
defensive None-on-empty-input, graceful degradation when the DB
is unavailable / connection raises / commit fails, schema sanity
(table + index exist after init).
- `tests/test_album_mbid_consistency.py` — 13 detector tests:
tag read/write round-trip on real FLAC files, Picard-standard tag
descriptors, defensive paths (unreadable file, empty input),
detector behavior (agreement → no flags, lone dissenter → flag,
ties → no flag, single-track albums → skipped, no-MBID tracks →
skipped, unresolvable file paths → skipped).
- `tests/metadata/test_metadata_enrichment.py` — added autouse
fixture monkeypatching the persistent cache to no-op for tests in
this file. The existing tests pin per-call MB counts and
in-memory cache state; without the fixture, persistent rows from
earlier tests would bypass the MB call. Persistent layer has its
own dedicated tests.
Verified: 1782 tests pass (29 new), ruff clean, smoke test confirms
end-to-end cache round-trip works.
WHATS_NEW entry under '2.4.2' dev cycle.
Investigation surfaced that Lidarr was wired into the orchestrator but
the actual download flow had blockers:
1. **Wrong file misfiled.** Lidarr grabs whole albums; SoulSync's
matched-context post-processing wants the SPECIFIC track the user
requested. Old code copied every track in the album and reported
`imported_files[0]` as `file_path` — almost always pointing to
track 1, not the user's actual track. Post-processing then tagged
track 1 with the requested track's metadata. Misfiling on every
real download.
Fix: parse the wanted track title out of the dispatch display name
(which `_search_sync` already builds as
`f"{artist} - {album} - {track_title}"`), look it up against
Lidarr's `track` API, resolve the matching `trackFileId` to a path,
and copy ONLY that file. Punctuation-tolerant fuzzy match handles
the common "m.A.A.d city" vs "maad city" case. Album-level
dispatches (no track in the display) preserve the old first-file
fallback so existing album-grab UX is unchanged.
2. **Hardcoded `metadataProfileId=1`.** Required by Lidarr's
artist-add API. On installs where the user deleted/recreated
metadata profiles, that id no longer exists and the call fails
with HTTP 400 — which silently breaks every download flow that
needs to add an artist. Real-world Lidarr installs do this all
the time.
Fix: `_get_metadata_profile_id()` calls Lidarr's `metadataprofile`
API and returns the first available id. Falls back to 1 only when
the API call fails entirely (preserves previous behavior so this
change can't make things worse).
3. **Polling never broke the outer loop on completion.** The inner
`for item in queue['records']` had `break` statements at status
transitions, but those only escaped the queue iteration — the
outer `for poll in range(max_polls)` kept spinning until the
600-poll timeout even after the album was clearly imported.
`for/else` semantics didn't apply because completion was detected
inside the inner loop, not by it running to exhaustion.
Fix: replaced with an explicit `download_complete` flag set when
`album/{id}` reports `trackFileCount > 0` (the authoritative
completion signal — works even when the queue record disappeared
between polls). Outer loop breaks immediately once the flag flips.
Helper functions added: `_extract_wanted_track_title` (staticmethod,
splits the display name; >=3 parts → track dispatch, 2 parts → album
dispatch), `_normalize_for_match` (lowercase + strip punctuation +
collapse whitespace for fuzzy compare), `_title_similarity` (cheap
score: equal=1.0, substring=0.85, token-overlap-ratio otherwise),
`_pick_track_file_for_wanted` (orchestrates the API calls).
Settings tooltip updated to be honest about Lidarr's natural shape:
album-grabber, no-op for playlist sync, hybrid mode falls through to
other sources for track searches. Sets correct expectations.
Tests: `tests/test_lidarr_download_client.py` — 21 isolated tests
covering pure helpers (title extraction, normalization, similarity)
and the file-picker integration paths (matching path, punctuation
tolerance, below-threshold fallback, missing trackFileId, missing
file on disk, API failures, malformed responses). No live Lidarr
needed — `_api_get` mocked at the client boundary.
Isolation: ONLY touches `core/lidarr_download_client.py`, the Lidarr
settings tooltip in `webui/index.html`, the Lidarr WHATS_NEW entry
in `webui/static/helper.js`, and the new test file. No changes to
the orchestrator, other download clients, the import pipeline,
side_effects, web_server.py, settings.js, or any shared validation /
monitor / task_worker code. Other download sources are not affected
in any way.
Verified: 1753 tests pass (21 new), ruff clean.
User report: switched download source to SoundCloud and noticed:
1. Download progress % stays at 0 until "suddenly done" — no live progress
2. Sidebar status indicator next to "SoundCloud" label is red
3. Dashboard service status card still shows "Soulseek" as the source name
Fix 1 — Live progress for HLS-segmented SoundCloud downloads
(`core/soundcloud_client.py`):
- yt-dlp's `total_bytes` / `total_bytes_estimate` for HLS describes the
CURRENT FRAGMENT, not the whole download. So the byte-based
percentage stayed near 0 the entire time — until 'finished' fired.
- Added `_update_download_progress_fragmented` which uses
`fragment_index` / `fragment_count` (which yt-dlp DOES populate
accurately for HLS) to compute a meaningful percentage. Total size
is extrapolated from per-fragment average for the bytes/remaining
display. Time-remaining estimate uses elapsed/index seconds-per-
fragment.
- The progress hook prefers fragment progress when both fragment_index
and fragment_count are present; falls back to byte-based for
non-fragmented (progressive MP3) downloads. Five new unit tests pin
the fragment-progress math, the 99.9% cap, and the defensive
zero-index / unknown-id paths.
Fix 2 — Sidebar status indicator stays green for SoundCloud mode
(`web_server.py`):
- The `/api/status` route's `serverless_sources` tuple decides whether
to even probe slskd. SoundCloud (and Lidarr) were missing — so when
the active source was SoundCloud, the route fell through to "test
slskd, mark not-relevant", which set `connected: False` and turned
the sidebar dot red even though SoundCloud was working.
- Added `'soundcloud'` and `'lidarr'` to the tuple. Both are
serverless from slskd's perspective, so the dot now stays green
whenever they're the active source.
Fix 3 — Dashboard service card title shows the active source
(`webui/static/shared-helpers.js`):
- The dashboard's "Download Source" card has its own
`sourceNames` map at line 3351 (separate from the sidebar map I
already updated at 3396). Missed it during the integration PR.
- Added `'lidarr'` and `'soundcloud'` so the card title now reads
"SoundCloud" / "Lidarr" instead of falling back to "Soulseek".
Bonus — Dashboard "Test Connection" button works for SoundCloud
(`core/connection_test.py`):
- The dashboard's Test Connection button on the download-source card
sends `service` based on the active source — so for SoundCloud it
was sending `service='soundcloud'`. `run_service_test` had no
branch for it, so it fell through to "Unknown service." and the
button always failed.
- Added a `soundcloud` branch that mirrors `/api/soundcloud/status`
behavior: confirms yt-dlp is installed, runs a real cheap probe,
returns a meaningful pass/fail. (HiFi has the same gap but no
user reported it; out of scope for this fix.)
Verified:
- 41 unit tests pass (5 new fragment-progress tests added)
- Full suite 1732 passed
- Ruff clean
Plug the previously-built SoundcloudClient (PR #478, the build-and-verify
phase) into every place a download source needs to appear. Follows the
same wiring contract as Tidal/Qobuz/HiFi/Deezer/Lidarr — orchestrator
routing, hybrid-mode picker, search dispatch, queue/cancel/clear,
provenance + library history, sidebar source label, settings UI all
work plug-and-play.
Backend wiring:
- `core/download_orchestrator.py` — import SoundcloudClient, _safe_init
it at startup, add to _client() lookup, get_source_status(),
check_connection's sources_to_check default, search source_names map,
search_and_download_best _streaming_sources tuple, download
source_map + source_names, and every iteration loop in
reload_settings download-path-update / get_all_downloads /
get_download_status / cancel_download (route + iterate) /
clear_all_completed_downloads / cancel_all_downloads.
- `core/downloads/monitor.py` — added SoundCloud to the per-client
loop that fetches active downloads outside the orchestrator (uses
getattr fallback for older soulseek_client snapshots).
- `core/downloads/task_worker.py` — added SoundCloud (and Lidarr,
which was missing too — bonus fix) to source_clients dict for hybrid
fallback dispatch.
- `core/downloads/validation.py` — added 'soundcloud' to
_streaming_sources so SoundCloud results go through the matching
engine validation path instead of the Soulseek quality-filter path.
- `core/imports/side_effects.py` — three call sites: source_map for
download_source label written to library_history, streaming-source
guard for the `||`-encoded stream_id parsing, and source_service
map for provenance recording. All three now include 'soundcloud'.
- `web_server.py` — five streaming-source detection tuples updated.
New `/api/soundcloud/status` endpoint returns
{available, configured, reachable} mirroring the Deezer/HiFi
status-endpoint pattern; reachability runs a real cheap yt-dlp
search so the settings Test Connection button gives a meaningful
pass/fail signal.
- `config/settings.py` — added empty `soundcloud_download` defaults
block so future tier-2 OAuth (SoundCloud Go+ session) doesn't have
to migrate existing configs.
Frontend:
- `webui/index.html` — new `<option value="soundcloud">` in the
download-source-mode dropdown, SoundCloud added to both hidden
legacy hybrid-source selects, new settings container with info
text + Test Connection button.
- `webui/static/settings.js` — HYBRID_SOURCES entry (with the
SoundCloud cloud SVG icon), _hybridSourceEnabled default,
updateDownloadSourceUI container display, allSources for legacy
hybrid picker, testSoundcloudConnection function (hits the new
status endpoint, color-codes the result), saveSettings
soundcloud_download empty block.
- `webui/static/shared-helpers.js` — sidebar source-name map
includes SoundCloud + Lidarr (Lidarr was also missing, bonus fix).
- `webui/static/helper.js` — WHATS_NEW entry under '2.4.2' dev cycle
describing the user-visible change in the chill terse voice.
Tests:
- `tests/test_download_orchestrator_soundcloud.py` — 14 integration
tests verifying the wiring: client constructed at startup, _client
lookup resolves 'soundcloud', get_source_status includes it,
download dispatcher routes username='soundcloud' to the SoundCloud
client (and unknown usernames still fall back to Soulseek), hybrid
search iterates SoundCloud when in order and skips it cleanly when
unconfigured, get_all_downloads / get_download_status / cancel /
clear walk SoundCloud, soundcloud-only mode dispatches only to
SoundCloud, _streaming_sources tuple in validation includes
'soundcloud'.
- `tests/downloads/test_download_orchestrator.py` — added
`soundcloud` to the test fixture's _build_orchestrator helper so
the new orchestrator attribute doesn't AttributeError in pre-
existing tests that bypass __init__.
Verified:
- Full suite green (1728 passed, 2 deselected for soundcloud_live)
- Ruff clean
- Live SoundCloud-only mode search returns 25 SoundCloud tracks for
"kendrick lamar luther" in <2s, returning properly-shaped
TrackResult objects with username='soundcloud' and dispatch-key
filename ready for the download path.
Out of scope (intentional deferrals):
- SoundCloud Go+ OAuth tier (256 kbps AAC) — anonymous-only for now.
Adding auth later is a settings-page extension, no orchestrator
changes needed.
- Album/playlist support — SoundCloud has playlists but they don't
map to the album model the rest of SoulSync expects. Singles only.
GitHub issue #476 (gabistek, Docker on Arch host): "Auto-Fill" / "Fix
Selected" on the Album Completeness findings page returned
"Could not determine album folder from existing tracks" for every album.
Reproduces on any setup where the media-server library lives outside the
SoulSync transfer/download folders — Docker is the headline case but
native installs that point Plex at a NAS via SMB hit it too.
Root cause: `core/repair_worker.py:_resolve_file_path` only probed the
transfer + download folders. Docker users have their Plex/Jellyfin
library bind-mounted at /music (or similar) — neither configured in
SoulSync. Every existing track got silently treated as missing, so
`album_folder` stayed None and the fix workflow bailed.
The same incomplete logic was duplicated four more times in the
repair_jobs/ modules, all with the same bug. Album Completeness was
just the most user-visible — the same setups were also producing false
"missing file" findings from Dead File Cleaner, silent skips in
MBID Mismatch Detector, etc.
The web server already had the correct logic at
`web_server.py:_resolve_library_file_path` (probes transfer + download
+ Plex-reported library locations + user-configured library.music_paths).
The repair workers had never been updated to match.
Fix:
- New `core/library/path_resolver.py` extracts the union logic into a
single shared function `resolve_library_file_path()`. Probes (in
order, deduped): explicit transfer/download kwargs, config-derived
soulseek.transfer_path/download_path, Plex-reported library
locations (when a plex_client is passed), user-configured
library.music_paths. Each defensive: malformed config or a flaky
Plex client degrades to the dirs that did succeed.
- `core/repair_worker.py:_resolve_file_path` becomes a delegating
wrapper preserving the legacy signature, with a new `config_manager`
kwarg. All 15 in-tree call sites updated to thread
`self._config_manager` through.
- `core/repair_jobs/dead_file_cleaner.py`,
`mbid_mismatch_detector.py`, and `lossy_converter.py` get the same
treatment: duplicate function replaced with a thin wrapper, call
sites pass `context.config_manager`.
- `core/repair_jobs/acoustid_scanner.py` and
`unknown_artist_fixer.py` (which used to import from repair_worker)
now call the shared resolver directly with `context.config_manager`.
Side benefit: every other repair job (Dead File Cleaner, MBID
Mismatch Detector, Lossy Converter, AcoustID Scanner, Unknown Artist
Fixer) also stops missing files in the media-server library mount.
Single fix unblocks five user-visible features.
Tests: `tests/library/test_path_resolver.py` — 20 cases covering all
four base-dir sources, suffix-walk algorithm, dedup, defensive paths
(None plex client, malformed config entries, raising config_manager.get,
broken plex attribute access), Docker path translation. Full suite
1677 passed locally.
WHATS_NEW entry under '2.4.2' dev cycle.
Discord report (fresh.dumbledore [VRN]): slskd sometimes ships broken files
(truncated transfers, corrupt FLAC, wrong file substituted on filename match).
They flowed through post-processing and only surfaced later — Plex/Jellyfin
scan failures, dead-air playback, duplicate detector tripping over the wrong
length. By that point the file was already tagged, copied, mirrored to the
media server, and recorded in provenance.
New module `core/imports/file_integrity.py`:
- `check_audio_integrity(path, expected_duration_ms=None) -> IntegrityResult`
- Three tiered checks, cheapest to most expensive:
1. File size sanity (catches 0-byte stubs and stub transfers)
2. Mutagen parse (catches header damage, wrong-format-with-right-extension)
3. Duration agreement vs. metadata source's expected length, ±3s tolerance
(5s for tracks over 10 minutes — long tracks naturally drift more)
- Returns IntegrityResult with `ok`, human-readable `reason`, and per-check
`checks` dict for debugging
- Never raises; pathological inputs return ok=False with explanation
Pipeline integration in `core/imports/pipeline.py:post_process_matched_download`:
- Hooks between the existing file-stability wait and AcoustID verification
- On failure: quarantine via existing `move_to_quarantine` helper, mark task
failed with descriptive error, clear matched-context, fire
`on_download_completed(success=False)` so the slot is released for retry
- Mirrors the existing AcoustID-failure path so retry behavior stays consistent
- Wrapped in try/except so an unexpected failure inside the check itself
cannot block downloads — logs and continues
This is intentionally tier 1: universal across formats, no external deps.
A future tier could verify FLAC STREAMINFO MD5 by decoding audio (needs
flac binary or libflac wrapper) — skipped for now since tier 1 catches the
dominant Discord-reported cases (truncated, 0-byte, wrong file).
Tests:
- `tests/imports/test_file_integrity.py` — 14 cases covering all three check
tiers, edge cases (zero/negative expected duration, long-track wider
tolerance, caller tolerance override), and the mutagen-unavailable
degradation path
- `tests/imports/test_import_pipeline.py` — two existing tests use 5-byte
fixture files that the new check would reject; they monkeypatch the
integrity check since they're testing plumbing (notification +
metadata_runtime forwarding), not integrity behavior

The 'Live Per-Track Progress' work shipped a backend in-progress row + top-of-tab
progress text but the history cards themselves stayed visually stale during
processing — lowercase "processing" badge, neutral styling, no per-track hint.
Smoke-testing also surfaced two latent identification bugs that prevented
multi-disc rips with features (Kendrick GKMC Deluxe) from importing at all.
Card-level live progress (`webui/static/stats-automations.js`):
- Cache `/api/auto-import/status` response in `_autoImportLastStatus`; poller
awaits status before re-rendering results so the card has the live data.
- Add 'processing' entries to statusLabels / statusIcons / statusClass.
- When card folder_name matches `current_folder`, swap the meta line to
`track N/M: <track name>` and tag the matching row in the expanded list
as `auto-import-track-row-active`; prior rows tag as `-row-done`.
Card styling (`webui/static/style.css`):
- `.auto-import-processing` blue left border, `.auto-import-badge-processing`
pulse animation, active/done track-row classes.
Multi-disc enumeration (`core/auto_import_worker.py:_scan_directory`):
- Old code skipped disc folders during recursion AND only attached them to a
parent that had its own loose audio. A folder containing only `Disc 1/`,
`Disc 2/` was invisible. Now: when a directory has only disc subdirs and no
loose audio, treat that directory itself as the album candidate. Disc folders
still skipped when standing alone.
- Add `FolderCandidate.is_staging_root` flag (set when the staging dir itself
becomes the candidate via this path) so identification can refuse to use the
meaningless folder name.
Tag identification (`core/auto_import_worker.py:_identify_from_tags`):
- Per-track `artist` tag fragmented consensus on albums with features
("Kendrick Lamar" / "Kendrick Lamar, Drake" / "Kendrick Lamar, Dr. Dre"
produced 3 separate `(album, artist)` keys for one album). Now group by
album first, then pick the most-common artist within that album group.
- `_read_file_tags` now prefers `albumartist` over `artist` for album-level
identity; falls back to `artist` for files without albumartist.
- Add INFO-level log when tag identification rejects, showing top albums and
their counts so the user can diagnose multi-disc / tagging issues.
Folder-name false-match guard (`core/auto_import_worker.py:_identify_folder`):
- When `is_staging_root` is set, skip the folder-name strategy entirely. Logs
the skip and falls through to AcoustID. Without this, dropping disc folders
directly into staging caused the scanner to search the metadata source for
the literal name "Staging", which false-matched against random albums (e.g.
"Stamina, Dinos" — a French rap album — at 13% confidence).
What's New entries added under 2.4.2 dev cycle.
User reported (Mushy / generally) that dropping an album into the
staging folder left the auto-import history blank for the entire
processing window — sometimes 5+ minutes for a full album. Pre-
existing UX gap, not caused by the recent context-builder refactor.
Two root causes:
1. ``_record_result`` only fired AFTER ``_process_matches`` returned.
For a 14-track album with ~30s/track post-processing, that meant
~7 minutes of zero rows in auto_import_history → nothing for
``/api/auto-import/results`` to return → empty UI.
2. ``_current_status`` only ever transitioned between 'idle' and
'scanning' — never 'processing'. ``get_status()`` had no per-
track index/name fields, so the UI had no way to render
"Processing track 3/14: Mine" even if it wanted to.
Fix:
- New ``_record_in_progress`` inserts a status='processing' row
up-front (before the per-track loop starts) so the UI sees the
import the moment it begins. Returns the row id.
- New ``_finalize_result`` updates that same row with the final
outcome (completed/failed) when processing finishes. One row per
album, not per track — keeps the history list clean.
- Both share ``_serialize_match_data`` (extracted from the original
``_record_result``) so the in-progress row carries the same match
payload shape the existing review UI already understands.
- ``_process_matches`` updates ``_current_track_index``,
``_current_track_total``, and ``_current_track_name`` BEFORE each
per-track callback fires, so a polling UI sees consistent
"processing N/M: <name>" snapshots.
- ``_scan_cycle`` flips ``_current_status`` to 'processing' before
the per-album loop, resets it + the per-track fields after.
Defensive ``finally`` clears progress even if the inner code path
raised.
- ``get_status()`` exposes the new fields so the UI's existing
/api/auto-import/status polling picks them up.
- Frontend (stats-automations.js): renders the new
``current_status='processing'`` state with track index/total/name
in the existing progress bar element. New 'processing' status
class for styling parity with 'scanning'.
8 regression tests in tests/imports/test_auto_import_live_progress.py:
- get_status surfaces the new fields with sane defaults
- track_index advances 1, 2, 3 during a 3-track loop
- track_total set BEFORE the first callback fires (no '1/0' flicker)
- _record_in_progress writes status='processing' with no
processed_at
- _finalize_result updates the same row to completed +
processed_at, no second insert
- _finalize_result with failed status leaves processed_at NULL
- _finalize_result with row_id=None is a safe no-op
- Per-track fields cleared by _scan_cycle's finally block

Reported case (Foxxify): Tidal returned error 1002 ("Invalid redirect
URI") on every authentication attempt for users accessing SoulSync
from a network IP. User had ``http://127.0.0.1:8889/tidal/callback``
registered in his Tidal Developer Portal — matching the SoulSync UI
default and docs.
Root cause: the /auth/tidal route at web_server.py:5594-5598 had a
"fallback: dynamically set based on request host" branch that fired
when ``tidal.redirect_uri`` config was empty AND the request didn't
come from localhost. That fallback overrode the TidalClient
constructor's safe default (``http://127.0.0.1:<port>/tidal/callback``)
with a uri built from request.host like
``http://192.168.x.x:8889/tidal/callback``. Tidal compares strings
exactly so this never matched the documented portal registration and
the user got 1002 before the consent screen even rendered.
The trap is the SoulSync settings UI displays the default URI as the
placeholder + "Current Redirect URI" display — but the placeholder
never gets saved to config unless the user explicitly clicks Save.
Most users who follow the docs (register the displayed default with
Tidal, then click Authenticate) hit the empty-config path and the
broken fallback.
Fix: drop the request-host fallback. Empty config falls back to the
constructor default that matches the documented portal registration.
The existing post-auth swap-step in the instructions page below
handles the Docker / remote-access case as designed:
1. SoulSync sends 127.0.0.1:8889 in the authorize URL → matches
portal → Tidal accepts.
2. User authorizes → Tidal redirects browser to 127.0.0.1:8889
(which fails locally — nothing on user's machine listens there).
3. Instructions tell user to swap 127.0.0.1 with the host they're
accessing SoulSync from.
4. Swapped URL hits the container's exposed callback port → auth
completes.
8 regression tests in tests/test_tidal_auth_redirect_uri.py:
- Configured redirect_uri sent verbatim (localhost / custom port /
explicit network IP)
- Empty config falls back to constructor default — NOT request.host
(the actual reported scenario, with explicit assertion message
warning if the bug returns)
- Empty config + localhost access uses the same default (sanity)

Followup to fix/watchlist-external-id-match. The companion PR closed
the demand side — the watchlist scanner asks for tracks by external IDs
before falling back to fuzzy. But for users on Plex / Jellyfin /
Navidrome the supply side was still broken: tracks.spotify_track_id
(and the other ID columns) only got populated by the asynchronous
enrichment workers, sometimes hours after the file was actually
written. During that window the ID match fell through to fuzzy and
the bug returned.
We were already collecting every ID during post-processing — they
live in the `pp` dict in core/metadata/source.py:embed_source_ids and
get embedded into file tags. We just dropped the in-memory copy
afterwards.
This PR persists them and uses them:
- Schema migration adds spotify_track_id / itunes_track_id /
deezer_track_id / tidal_track_id / qobuz_track_id /
musicbrainz_recording_id / audiodb_id / soul_id / isrc columns +
indexes to the existing track_downloads table (already keyed by
file_path).
- core/metadata/source.py:embed_source_ids exposes pp["id_tags"] and
the resolved ISRC back to the import context as _embedded_id_tags
/ _isrc.
- core/imports/side_effects.py:record_download_provenance reads those
context fields and passes them to db.record_track_download, which
now accepts the new ID kwargs and persists them.
- New db.get_provenance_by_file_path with exact + basename-suffix
fallback (handles container mount-root differences between
download-time path and media-server-reported path).
- New db.backfill_track_external_ids_from_provenance copies IDs
from track_downloads onto a tracks row idempotently — COALESCE on
every column preserves any value the enrichment worker already
wrote (enrichment is more authoritative for late binding).
- database/music_database.py:insert_or_update_media_track (the
single insertion point used by every Plex / Jellyfin / Navidrome
sync) calls the backfill immediately after each INSERT/UPDATE.
- New core/library/track_identity.py:find_provenance_by_external_id
used as a second-tier fallback in watchlist_scanner.is_track_missing
_from_library — catches the window between download and media-server
sync. Caller checks os.path.exists on the provenance file_path
before treating it as "already in library" so a deleted file
doesn't prevent re-download.
Effect: freshly downloaded files become ID-recognizable to the
watchlist on the very next scan, no enrichment-wait window.
19 regression tests in tests/test_provenance_id_persistence.py:
- Schema migration adds expected columns + indexes
- record_track_download persists every ID kwarg
- record_track_download backward-compat (old kwargs still work)
- get_provenance_by_file_path: exact match, basename fallback for
mount-root differences, multi-record latest-wins, defensive None
- backfill: copies all IDs, preserves existing via COALESCE,
no-op when no provenance exists
- find_provenance_by_external_id: per-ID lookup, ISRC cross-bridge,
OR semantics, latest-wins on multiple matches
Out of scope: backfilling provenance for files downloaded BEFORE
this PR (their track_downloads rows don't carry the new IDs). Those
continue to wait for enrichment. Acceptable — only affects historical
files; new downloads benefit immediately.

for the file (track tagged on album "Left Alone") while the metadata
source reported it on a different album ("NPC" single). The
title+artist+album fuzzy block correctly said the album names didn't
match and declared the track missing — but the file's stable external
IDs (Spotify ID, ISRC, etc.) unambiguously identified it as the same
recording.
The earlier compilation-album fix (PR #461) handled qualifier drift
("OST" vs "Music From The Motion Picture"). This case is two
genuinely different album names referring to the same song.
Fix: provider-neutral external-ID short-circuit before the fuzzy
block in `is_track_missing_from_library`. Pulls every recognized ID
off the source track (Spotify / iTunes / Deezer / Tidal / Qobuz /
MusicBrainz / AudioDB / Hydrabase / ISRC), runs a single SELECT
against the indexed external-ID columns on the `tracks` table, and
treats any hit as "track exists in library — don't re-download".
If no IDs are available (older imports without enrichment, library
scans that didn't populate external IDs), falls through to the
existing fuzzy logic so the safety net stays intact.
New `core/library/track_identity.py` module with two helpers:
- `extract_external_ids(track)`: handles dict and object-style track
shapes, direct-field aliases (spotify_id / spotify_track_id /
SPOTIFY_TRACK_ID), and provider-disambiguated native `id` fields
(when track has `provider='deezer'` and `id='X'`, treats X as a
Deezer ID).
- `find_library_track_by_external_id(db, external_ids,
server_source)`: builds an OR of indexed column matches with
IS NOT NULL guards, optional server_source filter that also
passes legacy NULL rows, single-row LIMIT.
ISRC bridges across providers — a library track imported via Deezer
can be matched against a Spotify scan when both sides carry the
same ISRC.
43 regression tests in `tests/test_library_track_identity.py`:
- 9 ID-extraction tests for direct fields (Spotify / iTunes / Deezer /
ISRC / MBID / AudioDB / Hydrabase)
- 8 ID-extraction tests via the provider field (8 providers + source
alias + missing-provider-ignored)
- 7 mixed/defensive tests (multiple IDs, object-style, empty strings,
None track, numeric coercion)
- 8 lookup tests (per-provider + ISRC cross-bridge)
- 3 OR-semantics tests
- 4 server_source filter tests
- 2 ID-column-map sanity tests

Reported case (CAL): with lossy_copy.enabled=True,
lossy_copy.delete_original=True, and codec=mp3, every download left
both the original FLAC AND the converted MP3 in the target folder.
Users opting into a lossy-only library ended up dual-format on
every import.
Root cause: ``core/imports/file_ops.py:create_lossy_copy`` reads
``lossy_copy.codec`` and ``lossy_copy.bitrate`` from config but never
reads ``lossy_copy.delete_original``. The setting is only consulted
by the pre-move source-vanished check at
``core/imports/pipeline.py:651`` (so the pipeline knows to look for
a lossy variant when the FLAC has already moved on), but no code
path actually deletes the source after conversion.
Fix: after ffmpeg returns success and the QUALITY tag is written,
check ``lossy_copy.delete_original`` and ``os.remove`` the original
when enabled. Belt-and-suspenders:
- Same-path guard (``os.path.normpath(out_path) != os.path.normpath(final_path)``)
prevents accidentally wiping the just-converted file if a future
codec choice somehow resolves out_path to the source path.
- ``FileNotFoundError`` is treated as success (concurrent worker /
dedup cleanup got there first).
- Other ``OSError`` (permission denied, locked file) is logged but
doesn't propagate — the conversion already succeeded, the user just
has to clean up the original manually.
Failure paths skip the delete:
- ffmpeg returns non-zero → returns None, original stays
- lossy_copy.enabled=False → early return before conversion runs
- delete_original=False (default) → original stays

Note: this PR does NOT address the second bug CAL mentioned (track
re-downloaded despite already existing on disk). That symptom is
caused by stale album metadata on the user's existing files — the
library DB has the track tagged on a different album than the
metadata source reports — combined with wishlist.allow_duplicate_tracks
defaulting to True. Same class of issue partially addressed in PR
fix/watchlist-redownload-and-duplicate-detection but compilation-
album drift is the only currently-handled case. Tracking separately.
Discord-reported (Foxxify): logging in to Qobuz via the Connect
button on Settings showed "Connected: <username> (Active)" but
underneath an error said "Qobuz not authenticated...", and the
dashboard indicator stayed yellow. Saving settings or reloading the
tab didn't help.
Root cause: SoulSync runs two QobuzClient instances side by side —
one through soulseek_client.qobuz for the /api/qobuz/auth/* endpoints,
and a second owned by the enrichment worker thread for thread safety.
The login flow only updated the auth-flow instance's in-memory state
(plus persisted to config). The dashboard's "configured" check at
web_server.py:3371 reads
``qobuz_enrichment_worker.client.user_auth_token`` — the WORKER's
instance — which still believed itself unauthenticated. The
connection-test step at core/connection_test.py:370 hits the same
worker instance for the same reason.
Fix: add ``QobuzClient.reload_credentials()`` — a public, network-free
method that re-reads the saved session from config and updates the
instance's in-memory state + session headers. Call it on the
enrichment worker's client immediately after a successful
``/api/qobuz/auth/login``, ``/api/qobuz/auth/token``, or
``/api/qobuz/auth/logout`` so the two instances stay in lockstep
without waiting for the next process restart.
Unlike the existing ``_restore_session()`` this skips the network
probe — the caller has just authenticated, so the token is known
good. A small ``_sync_qobuz_credentials_to_worker()`` helper in
web_server.py wraps the call so all three endpoints share one path.

- Keep the sidebar and dashboard service cards neutral until the first /status payload arrives
- Prevent placeholder source names and card text from flashing on dashboard load
- Reveal the real service status only after the live snapshot populates the UI
- Switch the dashboard/sidebar service-status card from spotify-branded ids to metadata-source ids
- Update the shared status helpers to target the renamed metadata-source card
- Keep the actual Spotify auth and settings UI unchanged
- Keep the primary metadata provider snapshot generic and move Spotify auth/rate-limit details into a separate status object.
- Update the websocket fixture and dashboard/settings consumers to read the two buckets independently.
- Point the dashboard Test Connection button at the active metadata source instead of hardcoded Spotify.
- Populate the response line from the current status payload so the card no longer stays at Response: --.
- Keep the existing Spotify-specific auth handling when Spotify is the configured source.
- Avoid refetching /api/watchlist/count every second when no auto-run is scheduled.
- Keep the timer active only while a next run exists; otherwise leave the label static.
Followup to the enrichment-bubble registry consolidation. The
dashboard polling + click handlers all hit
/api/enrichment/<service>/{status,pause,resume} now, so the 30
hand-rolled per-service routes in web_server.py have zero callers
and can come out:
/api/musicbrainz/{status,pause,resume}
/api/audiodb/{status,pause,resume}
/api/discogs/{status,pause,resume}
/api/deezer/{status,pause,resume}
/api/spotify-enrichment/{status,pause,resume}
/api/itunes-enrichment/{status,pause,resume}
/api/lastfm-enrichment/{status,pause,resume}
/api/genius-enrichment/{status,pause,resume}
/api/tidal-enrichment/{status,pause,resume}
/api/qobuz-enrichment/{status,pause,resume}
Worker init blocks stay (they still construct the workers + persist
pause state). Section comment headers are preserved with a one-line
note pointing readers at the new generic blueprint.
Test fixtures in tests/conftest.py and
tests/metadata/test_enrichment_events.py also updated to use the
new URL paths so they reflect production reality. They were
synthetic stubs that never depended on the production routes —
purely cosmetic alignment.

The dashboard's enrichment-status bubbles (MusicBrainz, AudioDB,
Discogs, Deezer, Spotify, iTunes, Last.fm, Genius, Tidal, Qobuz) each
had its own copy-pasted /status, /pause, /resume route in web_server.py
— 30 routes that differed only in the worker reference and a couple
of per-service quirks (Spotify's rate-limit guard, Last.fm/Genius
yield-override behavior, Tidal/Qobuz extra status fields).
Replace them with a registry-driven blueprint:
- core/enrichment/services.py declares an EnrichmentService dataclass
with worker_getter, config_paused_key, pre_resume_check,
auto_pause_token, and extra_status_defaults — all variation captured
as data, no branching on service id.
- core/enrichment/api.py exposes a Flask blueprint with three routes
(/api/enrichment/<service>/{status,pause,resume}). Per-service
quirks are honored via the descriptor: Spotify's rate-limit ban
still returns 429 with `rate_limited: true`, Last.fm/Genius still
drop the auto-pause token and add the yield override, Tidal/Qobuz
still merge `authenticated: false` into the fallback payload.
- web_server.py registers all 10 services after their workers
initialize, wires the host-side hooks (config_manager.set,
_download_auto_paused.discard, _download_yield_override.add), and
registers the blueprint.
- webui/static/enrichment.js polling + click handlers now hit the
generic endpoints. The per-service `update<Service>StatusFromData`
functions are unchanged — they still process the same payload.
This is the cutover step. Old per-service routes are intentionally
left in place as a fallback during the soak period — they currently
have zero callers in the codebase and will be deleted in a follow-up
patch once production has run on the new pipeline for a few days.
27 new tests in tests/test_enrichment_services.py cover the registry
behavior + every quirk path through the generic blueprint (rate-limit
guard, auto-pause token cleanup, persisted-pause config keys, extra
default fields, worker-not-initialized fallback, exceptions). Full

Artist-detail is a "pseudo-page" reachable from Library, the unified
Search page, and the global search popover. It has no [data-page]
match in the sidebar, so navigateToPage's bulk-active-removal left
every nav button unhighlighted while the user was viewing an artist —
the sidebar offered no visual anchor for where they were.
Now:
- navigateToPage('artist-detail') falls back to highlighting the
Library button when no [data-page] match exists, anchoring the
sidebar to the canonical home for artist detail views.
- A new _updateSidebarLibraryBreadcrumb() helper rewrites the Library
button label between plain "Library" and a "Library / Artist Name"
breadcrumb based on currentPage + artistDetailPageState. Long names
(>14 chars) truncate with an ellipsis; the full name shows on hover
via the title attribute.
- Called from navigateToPage (entering / leaving the page) and from
loadArtistDetailData (covers same-page artist switches in the
similar-artist chain where currentPage stays 'artist-detail').
CSS adds .nav-text-root / .nav-text-sep / .nav-text-context selectors
so the "Library" anchor word stays visually dominant while the
separator and artist name dim to a secondary tier — readable but not
competing for attention.
Pure visual change. No backend touched. No new tests (DOM-only).
Patch release wrapping up the 2.4.1 dev cycle. Highlights:
- Watchlist no longer re-downloads compilation/soundtrack tracks
(#458 dedup orphan cleanup + the album-match fix work in tandem
to stop the loop).
- Duplicate detector catches slskd dedup orphans via a second
filename-bucket pass.
- Beatport tab hidden temporarily — Cloudflare Turnstile blocks the
scraper and the official OAuth API is closed to public devs.
- Service worker for cover art + installable PWA manifest.
- Browser caching for static assets (1y) and discover pages (5min).
- Socket.IO same-origin default + admin-only /api/settings.
Files updated:
- web_server.py: _SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION 2.4.0 -> 2.4.1
- webui/index.html: sidebar version button + modal subtitle
- webui/static/helper.js: WHATS_NEW dev-cycle marker -> release date,
fallback version in _getLatestWhatsNewVersion, 8 new
VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS entries promoted from this cycle
- .github/workflows/docker-publish.yml: workflow_dispatch default

Two related bugs reported on Discord by Mushy.
1. The watchlist re-downloaded the same OST track up to 7 times.
``is_track_missing_from_library`` compared Spotify's album name and
the media-server scan's album name with a raw SequenceMatcher at a
strict 0.85 threshold. Compilations and soundtracks routinely fail
this — Spotify reports
``"Napoleon Dynamite (Music From The Motion Picture)"`` while the
Plex / Navidrome / Jellyfin tag scan saves it as
``"Napoleon Dynamite OST"``. Raw similarity ≈ 0.49, so the scanner
declared the track missing on every 30-minute scan and added it back
to the wishlist. The wishlist then issued a fresh download. slskd
appended ``_<19-digit-ns-timestamp>`` to each new copy because the
target file already existed, and the user ended up with seven copies
of one song in one folder.
Fix: extract two pure helpers — ``_normalize_album_for_match``
strips qualifier parentheticals (Music From X, OST, Deluxe Edition,
Remastered, Anniversary, etc.) and trailing dash-clauses;
``_albums_likely_match`` checks equality after normalization,
substring containment, and a relaxed 0.6 fuzzy ratio. A volume /
part / disc / standalone-trailing-number guard rejects pairs like
``"Greatest Hits Vol. 1"`` vs ``"Greatest Hits Vol. 2"`` so the
relaxed threshold doesn't introduce false positives on serialized
releases. After this change the Napoleon Dynamite case collapses
to ``"napoleon dynamite" == "napoleon dynamite"`` via the equality
short-circuit and the redownload loop dies.
2. The duplicate detector found only one of the seven dupe files.
The detector buckets tracks by the first 4 chars of their normalized
tag title. Files written by slskd directly into a library folder
often get inconsistent (or blank) tags from the media-server rescan,
so the seven copies were bucketed apart by parsed title and never
compared.
Fix: refactor the per-bucket comparison into ``_scan_bucket``, then
add a second pass — ``_build_filename_buckets`` re-buckets leftover
tracks by canonical filename stem (slskd dedup tail stripped via
``_strip_slskd_dedup_suffix``, same regex the import-cleanup PR uses)
plus extension. Filename agreement is itself strong evidence the
files came from the same source download, so the second pass calls
``_scan_bucket`` with ``require_metadata_match=False`` to skip the
title / artist / cross-album gates. The same-physical-file guard
still runs so bind-mount duplicates aren't flagged.
72 new regression tests across two files cover the album-match
helpers (28 tests including the Napoleon Dynamite scenario, 7 volume
disagreements, 8 positive/negative pairs, 5 defensive cases) and the
new filename-bucket pass (16 tests across bucket construction, scan
integration, and existing title-pass behavior). Full pytest 1509
passed; ruff clean.
Reported by Mushy in Discord.
Beatport added Cloudflare Turnstile to every public page on
beatport.com. The unified scraper now receives bot-challenge HTML
instead of real content, so all /api/beatport/* endpoints return
500 with "Could not fetch Beatport homepage".
The official Beatport v4 API is locked behind OAuth application
registration that isn't open to the public — confirmed via the
docs at api.beatport.com/v4/docs and community projects
(beets-beatport4). The public docs SPA client_id only accepts
browser-based flows (post-message redirect URI), which can't be
driven server-side.
Hide the Beatport tab on the Sync page so users stop hitting the
broken endpoints. Backend routes and beatport_unified_scraper.py
stay in code — revival is a one-attribute HTML change once
Cloudflare relaxes or a workaround is found.
Reported via the homepage 500 spam in user logs.
slskd appends "_<19-digit unix-nanosecond timestamp>" to a downloaded
filename when the destination already contains a same-named file
(concurrent downloads of the same track, partial-file retries after a
connection drop, cancelled-then-redownloaded files, the same track
surfacing in multiple synced playlists). The file-finder code already
recognized the suffix when matching a download to its source — but
after the canonical file moved into the library, the leftover
"_<timestamp>" siblings sat orphaned in the downloads folder forever.
Reported on Discord by Shdjfgatdif.
cleanup_slskd_dedup_siblings() runs at the end of each successful
import (3 safe_move_file sites in pipeline.py) and prunes any
remaining siblings that strip down to the canonical stem with the
same extension. Conservative match (>= 18 trailing digits) keeps
legitimate filenames like "Track 5" and "Album 1995" untouched. Per-
file unlink failures are swallowed so a single locked file doesn't
block the rest.
17 regression tests cover the suffix-strip primitive, orphan removal,
no-op cases, mismatched extensions, subdirectories, and partial-failure
recovery.
- Show Discogs with a lock icon until a personal access token is present.
- Prevent selecting locked Discogs and steer users to the Discogs settings section.
- Keep metadata-source availability and selection state synced as the token changes.
- Show Spotify with a lock icon when it is not currently selectable.
- Keep the explanation in the hover title instead of cluttering the dropdown label.
- Redirect users to the Spotify settings section when they try to pick a locked source.
- Drive the Spotify settings accordion from live auth state instead of treating it as configured/healthy when the session is missing.
- Reuse the existing yellow missing-state styling so unauthenticated Spotify is visually distinct from active Spotify.
- Keep the shared status refresh path updating the settings view immediately after auth changes.
- Return a distinct post-auth warning page when Spotify OAuth completes but the client still does not report an authenticated session.
- Send the completion signal back to the opener so the settings UI can refresh and show the warning state immediately.
- Keep the standalone callback server and the main Flask callback path aligned on the same result-page helper.
- Make the Spotify auth completion popup notify the opener across callback origins.
- Refresh service status in the settings UI after auth completes so the button flips to Disconnect immediately.
- Keep the standalone callback instruction page and the main app flow working with the same completion signal.
- Flatten the Spotify service-status rendering so it shows rate-limit and recovery states explicitly, while otherwise displaying the active metadata provider directly.
- Keep the Spotify auth controls and metadata-source picker aligned with the real session state after authenticate and disconnect flows.
- Return "Unmapped" for unknown metadata source labels instead of implying iTunes.
- Update the metadata registry tests to cover the new label fallback.
- Send Spotify auth completion back to the opener so the settings page refreshes immediately
- Make the local auth flow go straight through to Spotify instead of showing the temporary instruction page
- Keep the remote/docker instruction page available for manual callback setups
- Sync Spotify status, connect/disconnect buttons, and metadata source selection after auth and disconnect
- Keep the disconnect behavior aligned with the active primary metadata source
- Hide the auth button when a Spotify session is active
- Treat disconnect as a session change, not a provider swap
- Share metadata source labels in the registry
- Tighten rate-limit copy around Spotify-specific behavior
The bulk download_discography endpoint picked one metadata client
based on the configured primary source and called .get_album() on
every album with that single client. Albums whose IDs came from a
fallback/provider-specific source (e.g. Deezer-formatted IDs surfaced
through Hydrabase) failed with "Album not found" because the primary
client couldn't resolve them.
Bulk now uses the same source-aware resolver
(core.metadata.album_tracks.get_artist_album_tracks) the working
individual-album endpoint already uses, so the resolver's source-chain
walk finds each album under whichever provider actually has it. Also
adds explicit Discogs and Hydrabase support (the old if/elif chain
silently 500'd for those primaries).
Frontend (library.js + pages-extra.js) now sends a richer
`{ albums: [{id, name, artist_name, source}] }` payload so each album
can be resolved through its own source. The legacy `album_ids` payload
still works as a fallback path.
Closes#399.

Routes moved to thin parse-args/jsonify handlers; logic now lives in
three focused modules under core/automation/. 436 lines deleted from
web_server.py; 53 added back as wrappers.
Module split:
- core/automation/api.py — CRUD + run + history helpers. Each function
takes (database, automation_engine, ...) explicitly and returns
(response_body, http_status). Includes signal cycle detection
preflight checks for create + update.
- core/automation/progress.py — owns the in-memory progress state dict
+ lock (mirroring the original web_server.py globals as module-level
shared state so all callers see one view), init/update/history
helpers, and the WebSocket emit loop.
- core/automation/signals.py — collect_known_signals for the builder
autocomplete.
Out of scope (deferred):
- _register_automation_handlers — the 23+ action handler closures stay
in web_server.py because each one is tightly coupled to feature-
specific implementations (wishlist, watchlist, library scan, etc.).
- Worker functions (_process_wishlist_automatically, etc.) — belong
with their feature lifts.
- _run_sync_task / _run_playlist_discovery_worker — sync + discovery
PRs.

synthesize then_actions from notify_type/notify_config
- Same signal cycle detection behavior on create + update
- Same system-automation protection on delete + duplicate
- Same reschedule/cancel logic on toggle + bulk-toggle + update
- Same progress state shape (status, progress, phase, current_item,

- Same emit-on-finish socketio push from update_progress
- Same emit loop semantics (1s tick, snapshot active states, reap
finished after window)
Pre-existing bugs preserved (will fix in follow-up PRs):
- emit_progress_loop uses naive datetime.now() against tz-aware
started_at/finished_at, so the timeout-zombie check raises
TypeError → caught → never fires, and the cleanup-after-window
check raises → caught → state is reaped on FIRST tick regardless
of the window. Tests document this behavior so the next PR can
flip them to the corrected expectation.

That source icon hits /api/search — raw slskd file results, the same

tracks) and the multi-kind ThreadPoolExecutor that fans them out.
- core/search/library_check.py — library + wishlist presence check
with Plex thumb URL resolution; profile-aware wishlist with legacy
fallback for older DBs missing the profile_id column.
- core/search/stream.py — single-track preview search; effective stream
mode resolution, query-variant generation, retry walk, matching
engine integration.
- core/search/basic.py — flat Soulseek file search, quality-sorted.
- core/search/orchestrator.py — main enhanced-search dispatch
(short-query fast path, single-source bypass, hydrabase-primary fan
out, alternate source list builder), NDJSON streaming generator
for /source/<src>, and the SearchDeps dataclass that bundles the
cross-cutting deps.
Routes pass clients (spotify, hydrabase, hydrabase_worker, soulseek)

_is_hydrabase_active, _get_metadata_fallback_*, _run_background_
comparison, run_async, dev_mode_enabled_provider) into core/search via
a SearchDeps bundle built per-request. fix_artist_image_url stays in

Behavior preserved 1:1:
- Same response shapes (db_artists, spotify_artists, spotify_albums,
spotify_tracks, primary_source, metadata_source, alternate_sources,

Stats route logic moves into core/stats/queries.py as pure-ish functions
that take dependencies (database, image-url fixer, listening worker) as
arguments. The 13 route handlers in web_server.py shrink to thin
parse-args / jsonify wrappers.
What moved to core/stats/queries.py:
- stats_cached: 3-key metadata cache lookup + image url fix-up
- stats_overview / timeline / genres / library_health / db_storage
- stats_top_artists / top_albums / top_tracks: top-N + DB enrichment
- stats_recent: listening_history readback
- stats_resolve_track: title+artist -> file_path lookup for playback
- listening_stats_sync: spawns daemon thread that runs worker._poll
- listening_stats_status: stats payload, with None-worker fallback shape
No behavior change. Same response shapes, same error handling, same
silent-except on per-row enrichment failure. fix_artist_image_url
stays in web_server.py and is passed through as a callback so we
don't have to lift its config_manager / media-server dependencies in
this PR.
Adds tests/stats/test_stats_queries.py — 27 tests covering happy
paths, edge cases, image-url plumbing, worker glue.
Ruff clean. 694 tests pass (was 667 + 27 new).
- Normalize album import track display handling so queue labels and match rows stay consistent
- Bound MusicBrainz caches and avoid caching transient lookup failures
- Stop swallowing programmer errors in source enrichment helpers
- Restore import config test seams without reintroducing lazy imports
- Guard task completion calls and fix the Windows path test expectation
- Keep file lock tracking from growing without bound
- pass the selected manual match through singles import
- keep the import context source-aware so artist and album stay correct
- avoid treating non-Spotify IDs as wishlist Spotify IDs
- make wishlist logging and local variable names source-neutral
Addresses #365 (reported by JohnBaumb), parts 3 & 5. Client-side
IDB / sessionStorage data cache (part 4) deferred to its own PR.
Cover art on Library and Discover used to re-fetch from the source
CDN on every page visit. Now a service worker caches images locally
in CacheStorage with cache-first strategy — second visit serves art
instantly with zero network round-trips. PWA manifest added so the
app is installable to home screen / desktop.
Service worker (`webui/static/sw.js`):
- Cache-first for images: 10 known CDN hosts (Spotify, Last.fm,
Apple, Deezer, Discogs, MusicBrainz CAA, YouTube thumbnails) plus
the local `/api/image-proxy` endpoint plus same-origin .png/.jpg/
.webp/.gif/.svg paths. Cross-origin file-extension matches are
refused so we don't accidentally cache trackers.
- Stale-while-revalidate for `/static/*`: serve cached instantly,
refresh in background. Combined with the existing `?v=static_v`
cache-bust, deploys still ship live (different query → different
cache entry, old ages out).
- HTML / API / everything else: no caching, pass through.
- Cache-versioned (CACHE_VERSION = 'v1'); activate handler wipes any
cache whose name doesn't match the current version.
- skipWaiting + clients.claim so deploys propagate to open tabs
without requiring a full close-and-reopen.
PWA manifest (`webui/static/manifest.json`):
- Standalone display mode, theme color #1db954 (matches --accent-rgb).
- Two icons (192, 512) with both `any` and `maskable` purpose,
generated from favicon.png with aspect-preserving transparent
padding so the existing logo lands inside the safe zone for
OS-applied masks.
Wiring:
- `web_server.py` adds a `/sw.js` route that serves the file from
root scope (a service worker only controls URLs at or below its
served path; `/static/sw.js` would scope to `/static/*` only).
`Cache-Control: no-cache` on the SW response so deploys propagate
on next page load instead of being pinned by the 1yr static cache
the rest of /static/ uses.
- `webui/index.html` adds the manifest link, theme-color meta, and
an apple-touch-icon for iOS.
- `webui/static/init.js` registers the SW on `window.load`.
Feature-detected — no-op on browsers without serviceWorker support
or on non-secure origins (SW requires https or localhost).
One bug caught + fixed during line-by-line self-review:
`_staleWhileRevalidate` could return null to `respondWith()` when
both the cache miss AND the network fetch failed (the `.catch(() =>
null)` collapsed the rejection to null, which then short-circuited
through the falsy chain). Now explicitly awaits the network promise
and falls back to `Response.error()` when it resolves to null —
matches the `_cacheFirst` pattern.
Browser-verified: sw.js registers, status "activated and is running"
in DevTools. 603 tests pass.
Addresses #365 (reported by JohnBaumb), parts 1 & 2 of the proposal.
Service worker, client-side IDB/sessionStorage, and PWA manifest
deferred to follow-up PRs.
1. Static asset cache (CSS/JS/icons/fonts).
`SEND_FILE_MAX_AGE_DEFAULT` flipped from 0 to 31536000 (1 year) in
production. Safe because every static URL is bust-tagged with
`?v=static_v` (computed once per process start), so each server
restart effectively invalidates every cached asset for every user.
Within a single deploy, repeat page loads hit zero round-trips on
static files — was a 304 round-trip per asset before.
Dev override (`SOULSYNC_WEB_DEV_NO_CACHE=1`) keeps it at 0 so
iterating on JS/CSS doesn't need a server restart between edits.
Collateral fixes from the bump:
- Music streaming endpoint (L16140): `response.headers.add('Cache-Control',
'no-cache')` → bracket-assign. Under the old max-age=0, send_file
set `no-cache` and `.add()` duplicated harmlessly. Under the new
max-age=31536000, `.add()` would APPEND a second Cache-Control
value → two conflicting headers, browser-undefined behavior.
Bracket-assign replaces.
- Backup download endpoint (L25181): explicit `Cache-Control:
no-store` on the response so DB backups don't inherit the new
long max-age — sensitive content, must never cache.
2. Discover GET browser cache (5 min).
New `@app.after_request` hook scoped to `/api/discover/` and
`/api/discovery/` paths, GET method, 2xx responses only. Sets
`Cache-Control: public, max-age=300`. Skipped when the endpoint
already set its own Cache-Control. Toggling between Discover
sections within 5 min serves from browser cache, no backend hit.
Try/except wraps the hook body and logs a warning if anything
throws — never let a header-tagging bug turn a successful response
into a 500. (Logging instead of `pass` since silent except-pass is
exactly the anti-pattern issue #369 is about.)
Audited every other Cache-Control set site in web_server.py — only
the two `send_file` callers needed adjustment. Range-branch streaming
uses `Response()` directly, unaffected by the config change.
603 tests pass.
Closes#370 (reported by JohnBaumb).
The /api/settings endpoint and three siblings (/log-level,
/config-status, /verify) had no auth check — any logged-in profile
could read or modify service tokens, OAuth secrets, and API keys.
Cin's "minimum" suggestion from the issue: gate to admin profile.
Added an `admin_only` decorator near `get_current_profile_id` that
returns 403 when the current profile isn't admin (id=1). Applied
to all four endpoints.
Auth model note (documented in the decorator docstring): SoulSync's
existing model is "trust local network" — single-admin / no-multi-
profile installs default `get_current_profile_id()` to 1, so the
gate is a no-op for solo users. The decorator is meaningful in
multi-profile setups where non-admin sessions exist. Tightening to
real per-request auth is out of scope.
Did NOT consolidate with api/settings.py (Cin's "better" suggestion):
that endpoint uses API-key auth (for external tools), the web_server.py
copy uses session/profile auth (for the web UI). Different consumers,
different auth models — merging would break one or the other.
603 tests pass.
Six items from a Cin-style line-by-line pass on PR #383:
- resolve_cors_origins: list of non-string entries (`[None, 123]`) now
drops them instead of coercing to junk strings like `'None'`/`'123'`.
- will_reject: backwards-compat shim removed. Production callers always
pass `request.scheme` (Flask-guaranteed); the shim only existed for
tests/non-Flask callers and made the production code path branchier
than necessary. Tests now pass scheme explicitly.
- maybe_log: redundant `if not origin` early-return dropped. will_reject
handles missing origin (engineio's own behavior — server.py:207).
- RejectionLogger.__init__: `int(dedup_cap)` wrapped in try/except so
bad-type input falls back to DEFAULT_DEDUP_CAP instead of raising.
- web_server.py: docstring on the before_request hook explains why the
hook fires on every request (Flask doesn't scope before_request to a
path prefix; the early-return string compare is the cheapest option).
- settings.js: cors-origins URL regex tightened from `[^\s/]+` to
`[^\s/?#]+` so query/fragment chars don't pass validation. Engineio
would silently fail to match those anyway; better to flag at save.
Test changes:
- parametrize gained an explicit `scheme` column (12 cases updated).
- New explicit case: scheme-mismatch rejects (engineio compares full
`{scheme}://{host}` strings).
- `test_will_reject_falls_back_to_host_only_when_no_scheme_info`
deleted — the shim it tested is gone.
- `test_will_reject_honors_x_forwarded_host` now passes scheme info.
Net: -9 production lines, -3 test lines. Production code path is
straight-line. 603 tests pass.
Self-review nits on PR #384:
- requirements.txt: 5-line comment for one pin → 1 line. Rationale
lives in commit body and #367; no need to repeat in-tree.
- helper.js: dropped `page: 'settings'` from the yt-dlp WHATS_NEW
entry. Settings page has no yt-dlp UI; the link would have
navigated users somewhere irrelevant.
553 tests pass.
Closes#367 (reported by JohnBaumb).
The Docker entrypoint ran `pip install -U yt-dlp --quiet --no-cache-dir`
on every container start. Three problems with that:
- Non-deterministic startup: each restart could pick up a different
yt-dlp version, making "works on my machine" debugging harder.
- Network dependency at boot: PyPI being slow/unreachable gated the
app coming up.
- In-place upgrades inside running containers can race with active
yt-dlp invocations and aren't a great pattern.
Picked Option A from the issue: pin to an exact version in
requirements.txt (`yt-dlp==2026.3.17`) and remove the entrypoint
install entirely. yt-dlp comes baked into the image now via the
existing `pip install -r requirements.txt` in the Dockerfile.
Tradeoff: YouTube fixes ship via SoulSync releases now instead of
"next container restart". The pin is documented inline with how to
bump it.
Net change: -3 entrypoint lines, requirements.txt pin tightened,
WHATS_NEW '2.4.1' block opened (entries hidden until version bumps).
553 tests pass.
Self-review pass on the security fix uncovered five issues, all fixed
here:
1. will_reject scheme handling. Engineio compares full {scheme}://{host}
strings, not just hostnames. A TLS-terminating proxy can leave the
backend seeing http while the browser's Origin is https — engineio
rejects, but the original predictor said "allow" → no helpful log
line. Added request_scheme + forwarded_proto params, build full
candidate strings to match engineio.
2. EITHER-forwarded-header rule. Engineio adds the forwarded candidate
when EITHER X-Forwarded-Proto OR X-Forwarded-Host is present (it
falls back to HTTP_HOST for the missing one). The original predictor
only added it when forwarded_host was set — false negative for
misconfigs sending only X-Forwarded-Proto. Now mirrors engineio.
3. will_reject incorrectly rejected missing-Origin requests. Engineio
(server.py:207: `if origin: validate`) skips CORS validation when
no Origin header is sent — non-browser clients (curl etc.) are
intentionally permitted. The original code rejected them. Test was
asserting the wrong behavior. Both fixed.
4. RejectionLogger had unbounded dedup set growth. A hostile actor
opening connections from many distinct fake origins would fill
memory unboundedly. Capped at 100 unique origins (configurable);
when cap hit, one overflow notice is emitted and further rejections
are silently dropped until restart.
5. Lock pattern: the overflow log path called logger.warning() while
holding the dedup lock, inconsistent with the normal path. Fixed
to pick the message under the lock and log after release. Critical
section is now minimal and uniform.
Plus polish:
- Stale module docstring fixed (said "empty list" instead of "None").
- settings.js validates each cors_origins line against a URL regex on
save; toasts a one-shot warning if entries are malformed (resolver
silently filters them, but user gets feedback now).
- web_server.py wiring passes request.scheme + X-Forwarded-Proto so
the predictor has full proxy info.
Tests:
- 51 unit tests in tests/test_socketio_cors.py (was 45). New cases:
* scheme comparison (5 cases including TLS-terminating proxies)
* forwarded_proto-alone misconfig
* missing-origin matches engineio (was asserting wrong behavior)
* dedup cap with overflow + reset
* default cap is reasonable (uses public DEFAULT_DEDUP_CAP constant)
Engineio behavior independently verified by reading engineio/server.py
and engineio/base_server.py source. Predictor mirrors both files.
604 tests pass.
Closes#366 (reported by JohnBaumb).
Socket.IO was initialized with `cors_allowed_origins='*'`, accepting
WebSocket connections from any origin. A malicious site could open a
WS to a user's local SoulSync instance and exfiltrate live progress /
toast / activity events.
This commit:
- Defaults to engineio's same-origin behavior (`cors_allowed_origins=None`),
which automatically honors X-Forwarded-Host so reverse proxies that
send that header (Caddy / Traefik by default, properly-configured
Nginx) work transparently.
- Adds a `security.cors_origins` config setting + Settings → Security
textarea where users behind unusual proxies / Electron wrappers /
cross-origin integrations can whitelist their origin. Accepts comma
or newline separated values; `*` on its own line opts back into the
legacy wildcard with a startup-warning log.
- Logs a clear warning the first time engineio rejects each unique
origin, naming the rejected Origin and request Host and pointing
users to the settings field. Without this, engineio silently 403s
the upgrade and the user just sees a half-broken UI with no clue
why. Threadsafe dedup so a hostile origin can't spam logs.
Logic lives in `core/socketio_cors.py` (resolver, rejection
predictor, dedup logger class, startup-status emitter) — pure
functions, no Flask dependency. `web_server.py` adds 23 lines of
wiring and imports.
Important catch during review: my first pass used `cors_allowed_origins=[]`
as the "secure default." Reading engineio's source revealed `[]` actually
means "DISABLE CORS HANDLING" (engineio/server.py:202: `if cors_allowed_origins != []:`)
— identical security to `'*'`. Fixed to use `None` (engineio's actual
same-origin sentinel) and pinned with a regression test that asserts
the resolver never returns `[]` for any input shape.
Tests:
- tests/test_socketio_cors.py — 45 unit tests covering 19 resolver shape
cases (None, empty, whitespace, comma, newline, garbage types, lists),
the `[]`-must-never-be-returned security regression, 12 rejection
prediction cases, X-Forwarded-Host handling, dedup logger behavior,
threadsafe race (8 threads × 50 hammers → exactly 1 warning), and
startup-status emitter outputs.
Frontend:
- Settings → Security gains an "Allowed WebSocket Origins" textarea
with help text explaining same-origin default + when to add a domain
+ the `*` opt-out.
- helper.js — new '2.4.1' WHATS_NEW block (hidden until version bump)
with a chill-voice entry describing the change.
Conftest.py left at `'*'` — test environment, no security concern.
598 tests pass.
Trimmed the WHATS_NEW '2.4.0' block (27 entries) and the full
VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS array (23 sections) from the diagnostic-paragraph
style I'd been defaulting to into something terse and casual:
- Descriptions are 1-2 short sentences instead of multi-clause writeups.
- Modal feature bullets capped at 3-7 short items each.
- Stripped parenthetical credits from titles (no more "(kettui Review)",
"(Images, Counts, Title Hints)" — those belong in git history, not UI).
- Lowercase casual tone throughout description bodies.
- No reporter handles in entry text.
Net: 176 insertions / 194 deletions. helper.js parses, 553 tests pass.
The version modal pulled its content from /api/version-info — a 295-line
hand-curated Python dict in web_server.py. The "What's New" panel pulled
its content from WHATS_NEW in helper.js. Same release notes, two files,
two languages, hand-edited at every release — drift was inevitable
(and happened: the kettui-fix entries I added recently differed in
detail between the two surfaces).
This commit makes helper.js the single editing surface:
- Adds VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS const in helper.js right beside WHATS_NEW,
with a comment block documenting the relationship: WHATS_NEW is the
per-version detailed log used by the helper popover; VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS
is the curated highlight reel shown by the sidebar version button. Both
edited at release time, both in the same file.
- Rewires showVersionInfo() in downloads.js to read from those consts
directly. No backend round-trip; the changelog content ships in the
same JS bundle the browser already loaded.
- Deletes the /api/version-info route and its 295-line version_data dict.
- Updates the line-39 comment to drop the now-stale "version-info endpoint"
reference.
Note: this is collocation, not true unification. WHATS_NEW and
VERSION_MODAL_SECTIONS are still two distinct structures with overlapping
content, linked by a comment convention rather than a shared schema. A
deeper refactor (e.g. a `featured` flag on WHATS_NEW entries that the
modal aggregates) was rejected as out-of-scope — the curated section
titles ("Earlier in v2.3", "Recent Fixes") aren't 1:1 mappable to
WHATS_NEW entries. Saving for a follow-up if the drift problem persists.
Risk audit:
- Load order: helper.js loads at line 7967, downloads.js at line 7873.
Both classic scripts execute synchronously before any clickable
interaction, so showVersionInfo (only invoked on the version-button
onclick) always sees both consts defined.
- populateVersionModal() unchanged — receives the same {title, subtitle,
sections: [{title, description, features, usage_note?}]} shape.
- Stale-cache window during deploy: old downloads.js hitting a 404 on
the deleted endpoint falls through to the existing catch + toast path
("Failed to load version information"). Cache-buster ?v=static_v
resolves on next page load.
553 tests pass. helper.js + downloads.js parse cleanly. No residual
references to /api/version-info anywhere in the repo.
Forgot to bump the hardcoded label in index.html during the 2.4.0
version commit. _getCurrentVersion() reads this textContent, so the
What's New surfacing logic was still seeing 2.3.
- _SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION → 2.4.0 (was 2.39).
- Migrate WHATS_NEW key '2.40' → '2.4.0', strip unreleased flags off
the 27 entries shipping in this release, set release date.
- Replace parseFloat() version compare with proper int-tuple semver
comparator — parseFloat('2.4.0') and parseFloat('2.4.1') both return
2.4, which would have made future patch bumps invisible to the
What's New surfacing logic.
Five issues kettui flagged on PR #377:
- Worker race (reorganize_queue.py): _next_queued() picked an item and
released the lock, then re-acquired to flip status='running'. A
cancel() landing in that window marked the item cancelled but the
worker still ran it. Replaced with _claim_next_or_wait() that picks
AND flips under one lock acquisition.
- Wakeup race (reorganize_queue.py): _wakeup.clear() after the empty
check could lose an enqueue's _wakeup.set(), parking a freshly-queued
album for up to 60 seconds. Replaced Lock + Event with a single
threading.Condition; cond.wait() releases and re-acquires atomically
on notify.
- Bulk dedupe (reorganize_queue.py:enqueue_many): looped single-item
enqueue, so a duplicate album_id later in the same batch could slip
through if the worker finished the first copy before the loop
reached the second. Now holds the lock for the whole batch and tracks
a per-batch seen set, so intra-batch duplicates dedupe against each
other and not just pre-existing items.
- Preview button stuck disabled (library.js:loadReorganizePreview):
early returns and thrown errors skipped the re-enable line. Moved
state into a canApply flag committed in finally, so any exit path
lands the button correctly.
- DB helpers swallowing failures (music_database.py): get_album_display_meta
and get_artist_albums_for_reorganize used to catch every Exception
and return None / [], so a real DB outage masqueraded as "album not
found" / "no albums". Now lets exceptions bubble; the route layer
already wraps them as 500.
Tests:
- test_cancel_and_run_are_mutually_exclusive — hammers enqueue+cancel
pairs and asserts the invariant that no successfully-cancelled item
ever ran (catches regressions to the atomic pick).
- test_enqueue_many_dedupes_batch_internal_duplicates — pins the
intra-batch dedupe.
- test_get_album_display_meta_propagates_db_errors and
test_get_artist_albums_for_reorganize_propagates_db_errors — pin
the bubble-up behavior.
Changelog updated in helper.js and version modal.
Replaces the single-slot "one reorganize at a time, return 409 on collision"
model with a per-user FIFO queue. Buttons stay clickable, "Reorganize All"
is one backend call instead of an N-call JS loop, and a status panel mounted
at the top of the artist actions bar shows live progress (active item,
queued count, recent completions) with per-item cancel buttons.
Backend
- core/reorganize_queue.py: singleton queue + worker thread, dedupe-on-
enqueue, cancel rules (queued cancellable, running not), enqueue_many
for bulk operations, progress fan-out via update_active_progress
- core/reorganize_runner.py: factory builds the worker's runner closure
with injected dependencies. Reads config per-call so changing the
download path in Settings takes effect on the next reorganize without
a server restart
- database/music_database.py: get_album_display_meta and
get_artist_albums_for_reorganize — moves the SQL out of route handlers
- web_server.py: thin enqueue/snapshot/cancel/clear endpoints, runner
registration at module load. Old _reorganize_state globals + status
endpoint deleted. Static-asset cache buster (?v=<server-start>)
added so JS/CSS updates ship live without users clearing cache
Frontend
- webui/static/library.js: status panel mount, polling (1.5s when
active, 8s when idle), expand/collapse, per-item cancel, debounced
enhanced-view reload (one reload per artist batch instead of N).
Per-album reorganize button paints with queued/running indicator
and short-circuits to a toast when the album is already in queue
- webui/static/style.css: panel + button styling matching the existing
glass-UI accents
- webui/static/helper.js + version modal: WHATS_NEW entry
Tests (22 new)
- tests/test_reorganize_queue.py (19 tests): FIFO order, dedupe,
per-item source, cancel rules, continue-on-failure, snapshot
shape, progress propagation, bulk enqueue
- tests/test_reorganize_runner.py (4 tests): per-call config reads,
setup-failure summary, dependency injection, progress fan-out
- tests/test_reorganize_db_methods.py (7 tests): SQL JOIN behavior,
ordering, fallback for blank strings, artist isolation
Full suite 549 passed in 27s.
Four changes addressing kettui's PR #377 review comments:
1. **`_finalize_track` no longer over-counts on DB failure (🔴 bug).**
The function previously bailed on DB-update failure but
`_process_one_track` still incremented `summary['moved']`
unconditionally — overstating how many tracks the UI knows are
at their new locations. Fixed by:
- `_finalize_track` now returns ``bool`` (True only when DB row
was updated AND original was dealt with)
- Caller checks the return; on False, records as a failed track
with a clear message ("Track landed at new location but DB
update failed — file is at both old and new paths until library
scan re-indexes")
- Existing `test_db_update_failure_leaves_original_in_place` now
also asserts `moved == 0`, `failed == 1`, and that the error
message names the cause
2. **`executeReorganize` toast no longer says "undefined tracks" (🐛
bug).** `/reorganize` doesn't return `result.total` anymore (the
track count is determined server-side after planning), so the
"Reorganizing undefined tracks..." string was meaningless. Now uses
`result.message` from the backend instead.
3. **`_pollReorganizeStatus` distinguishes completed from skipped
(🟡 risk).** Backend now propagates the orchestrator's status
(`completed` / `no_source_id` / `no_album` / `no_tracks` /
`setup_failed` / `error`) into `_reorganize_state['result_status']`
so the frontend can warn appropriately. Two new helpers:
- `_classifyReorganizeOutcome(state)` — returns 'success' only
when `result_status === 'completed'` AND `failed === 0`;
'warning' otherwise
- `_formatReorganizeResultMessage(state)` — returns a message
specific to the outcome ("Reorganize skipped — album has no
metadata source ID. Run enrichment first." for `no_source_id`,
etc.)
Zero-failure non-completed runs now show as warnings instead of
green checkmarks.
4. **Bulk mode no longer counts skipped albums as succeeded (🟡
risk).** `_executeReorganizeAll`'s loop was treating any HTTP
200 response as success, ignoring the orchestrator's actual
outcome for that album. Fixed by:
- `_waitForReorganizeComplete()` now resolves with the final
state object (was: void)
- Loop checks `finalState.result_status === 'completed'` AND
`finalState.failed === 0` before counting `succeeded++`;
otherwise increments `skipped` (with a per-album warning
toast) or `failed` accordingly
- Final summary toast now reads
"Reorganized N of M albums, K skipped, J failed" and only
shows green when nothing was skipped or failed
All four addressed in a single commit because they form one
coherent UX-correctness fix — the bug bug (#1) and the count-
overstatement bug (#4) both made the user see "everything succeeded"
when reality was different. Together they make the UI honestly
reflect what actually happened.
Files:
- core/library_reorganize.py — `_finalize_track` returns bool,
`_process_one_track` reads it
- web_server.py — `_reorganize_state['result_status']` populated
from orchestrator's summary on success and on exception
- webui/static/library.js — `_classifyReorganizeOutcome` /
`_formatReorganizeResultMessage` helpers, single-album +
bulk-mode flows both consume them
- tests/test_library_reorganize_orchestrator.py — strengthened
the existing DB-failure test to assert moved/failed counts
Credit: kettui — four PR #377 review comments named all of these
precisely with line numbers and severity.
Reported on Discord by winecountrygames. The library "Reorganize" tool
had several layered bugs that all traced to the same root cause: the
endpoint reinvented every wheel post-processing already turns — its own
template engine, its own disc-number resolution from file tags, its own
sidecar sweep, its own collision detection — and each had drifted from
the canonical path used by fresh downloads. Reported symptoms:
- 3-disc Aerosmith deluxe collapsed to a flat single-disc layout
- Half the tracks on other albums silently skipped, no error / no count
- Re-runs left empty leftover album folders cluttering the artist dir
Architecture: stop reinventing wheels. Route reorganize through exactly
the same pipeline downloads use. Per-album:
1. Fetch the canonical tracklist from a metadata source (Spotify /
iTunes / Deezer / Discogs / Hydrabase) using the album's stored
source IDs. New `core/library_reorganize.py::plan_album_reorganize`
does this — primary-source-first, fall through priority chain
unless the user picked a specific source in the modal (strict mode).
2. For each local track, find the matching API entry via a scored
candidate matcher. Score components: exact-title (100),
substring-with-length-ratio (40-90), track-number agreement (20).
Hard reject when the two titles have different version
differentiators (Remix vs no-remix means different recordings,
not annotation drift). Below threshold = unmatched, surfaced as
"not in source's tracklist, left in place" rather than silently
mis-routing.
3. Copy the file to a per-album staging directory, build the same
context dict the import flow builds (`spotify_album` /
`track_info` / etc. with `is_album_download=True` so the path
builder enters ALBUM mode, not SINGLE mode), call
`_post_process_matched_download(...)` — same function fresh
downloads use. Post-process handles tagging, multi-disc subfolder
decisions, sidecar regeneration, AcoustID verification.
4. Read `context['_final_processed_path']` to learn where it landed.
Update `tracks.file_path` in the DB BEFORE removing the original
(DB-update failure leaves the file at both locations, recoverable
via library scan; the reverse would orphan the row). Delete
per-track sidecars (post-process recreates them at the new
destination).
3 concurrent workers per album via ThreadPoolExecutor, matching the
download path's per-batch worker count. State mutations all guarded by
a single lock; staging filenames carry a UUID prefix so concurrent
copies of identically-named source files don't overwrite each other.
Source picker in the modal lets the user choose which source to read
the tracklist from. Two endpoints feed it:
- `/api/library/album/<id>/reorganize/sources` — sources for THIS
album that are both authed AND have a stored ID. For the per-
album modal.
- `/api/library/reorganize/sources` — all authed sources globally.
For the bulk "Reorganize All" modal where per-album ID coverage
varies.
When the user picks a specific source, the orchestrator runs in
`strict_source=True` mode (no fallback chain) — picking Spotify means
"use Spotify or fail", not "use Spotify and silently fall back."
Preview endpoint shares the same planning logic as apply via
`preview_album_reorganize` — the destination path comes from the same
`_build_final_path_for_track` post-process uses, so what you see in
the preview is exactly what you get on apply.
Empty destination folders (from earlier failed runs OR from the
current run when post-process creates a dir then fails AcoustID)
get cleaned up after each successful run: walk up to the artist
folder from any successful destination, prune empty album-sibling
folders one level deep. Bounded scope = won't touch unrelated user
dirs.
Web_server.py shrinks by ~450 net lines. The endpoint handler is now
a thin wrapper that builds injected callables (path resolver, post-
process function, DB updater, empty-dir cleaner), spawns a thread
that calls `reorganize_album()`, and returns. All actual logic lives
in `core/library_reorganize.py` where it's unit-testable without
spinning up Flask.
Frontend cleanup: the per-call template input in both reorganize
modals (per-album and bulk) was redundant — the backend always uses
the configured global download template. Removed the input and the
variables-grid reference UI it was for.
39 new unit tests pin every contract:
- source resolution (no_source_id when album has none, fallthrough
chain when primary returns nothing, strict mode bypasses fallback)
- matcher scoring (exact / substring / multi-disc disambiguation /
smart-quote tolerance / dash-vs-parens / bonus-track substring /
Remix-vs-original differentiator rejection / "Real" doesn't false-
match "Real Real Real" / track-number-only no longer fires)
- file safety (DB-update failure leaves original in place, post-
process failure leaves original in place, post-process exception
caught and original preserved, success removes original AND
updates DB in the right order)
- sidecar handling (per-track .lrc/.nfo deleted on success, kept on
failure; album-level cover.jpg/folder.jpg cleaned only when
directory has no remaining audio)
- staging cleanup (recreated between tracks because post-process
nukes it, dir cleaned up on success AND on failure)
- destination-dir prune (empty siblings removed, real album with
files preserved, no recursive sweep)
- source picker (only authed-with-stored-ID sources for per-album,
all authed sources for bulk; strict mode doesn't fall back)
- concurrency (3 workers in flight, state stays consistent under
races, stop_check cuts off pending tasks)
- preview parity (preview produces same destination as apply for
multi-disc; ALBUM mode not SINGLE mode; unmatched/no-path tracks
surfaced with reasons)
Limitations (deliberate punts, NOT in this PR):
- Renamed local titles on multi-disc albums where track_number
also disagrees: matcher returns nothing (track is "not in
source"). Fixable by using duration_ms as a tertiary signal.

Reported on Discord by winecountrygames — his bug report named the
trigger button (Enhanced view → Reorganize All) and both symptoms
(multi-disc collapse, half-album skip), which let the diagnosis go
straight to the architectural problem.
Reported on Discord by winecountrygames — Spotify auth granted, then
re-banned for 4 hours within ~30 seconds, repeatedly. Trace from his
captured log:
< 12:05 [pre-log] Spotify ban active when log starts
15:21:27 First ban EXPIRED → 5-minute post-ban cooldown begins
15:26:27 Cooldown ends, spotify_client.is_authenticated() probe
allowed again → client initialized
15:26:59 First Spotify API call after cooldown — get_artist_albums
for an artist whose discography a background worker was
enriching — gets 429 immediately with no Retry-After
header → new ban activated for 14400s (4 hours)
Root cause: `_POST_BAN_COOLDOWN = 300` (5 minutes) is shorter than
Spotify's actual server-side memory of the previous offense. The
cooldown exists specifically to prevent the "ban expires → we probe →
re-ban" cycle (`spotify_client.py:65-68` documents that intent
explicitly), but the value was wrong: Spotify's server still
considered this user banned 5 minutes after our local ban window
ended, so the very first call after cooldown got slapped.
The 4-hour re-ban itself is correct behavior — `_BASE_MAX_RETRIES_BAN`
fires when spotipy reports "max retries", which means the client
exhausted its internal retry budget on 429s before raising. That's a
severe-ban signal and a long default is the right response.
Fix: bump `_POST_BAN_COOLDOWN` to 1800 seconds (30 min). This is the
smallest change that addresses the immediate "re-probe → re-ban" loop
in the report. 30 minutes is an empirical floor — long enough for
Spotify to actually clear its server-side memory in the cases we've
observed, short enough not to keep functional users locked out beyond
necessary. Can be revisited if reports persist.
What this PR does NOT fix (important context for the same user):
This bump only helps the "ban expires → we re-probe → re-ban" loop.
It does NOT help winecountrygames's other symptom — Spotify being
banned within 30 seconds of his FIRST EVER authorization (no prior
ban). That's a separate failure mode: on first auth, enrichment
workers immediately fan out across the user's library (250 artists
in his case), hammering Spotify endpoints with bulk get_artist_albums
calls before any rate-limit feedback can land. Spotify's hidden
per-endpoint daily quotas — which BoulderBadgeDad has empirically
documented but the global rate limiter doesn't see — flag the burst
and impose a multi-hour cooldown that LOOKS like a bot-detection ban
to us. A proper fix needs a fresh-auth ramp-up: start with very low
Spotify QPS for the first N minutes, scale up only if no rate-limit
feedback arrives. That's a separate PR.
Documented as additional follow-ups (NOT in this change):
- Adaptive cooldown that scales with the size of the previous ban —
a 4-hour MAX_RETRIES ban probably warrants a 1-hour cooldown,
while a 60-second Retry-After-honored ban can resume in 5 minutes.
The system already distinguishes these in `_set_global_rate_limit`,
it just doesn't propagate the distinction to cooldown duration.
- Probe-with-light-call pattern — make the first post-cooldown call
a single inexpensive endpoint (`current_user`) rather than
allowing a background worker's heavy `get_artist_albums` to be
the canary. Failed probe extends cooldown silently instead of
triggering a fresh 4-hour ban.
- Fresh-auth ramp-up (per the limitation above).
Files:
- core/spotify_client.py — `_POST_BAN_COOLDOWN` 300 → 1800. Comment
expanded to cite the report so the value isn't bumped back without
context.

No tests added — the cooldown logic itself is unchanged, only the
constant. Tests asserting on a constant value are theater.
Reported on Discord by winecountrygames — his captured log made the
"ban-expires-to-re-ban" timing chain unambiguous.
Reported on Discord by Netti93: with Tidal configured for "HiRes only"
and "Allow Quality Fallback" disabled, tracks were still downloading
successfully — as m4a 320kbps files. Some "successful" downloads were
less than half the file size of the same track pulled via Tidarr/tiddl
from the same Tidal account.
Root cause: Tidal's API silently degrades to the best quality your
account + the track + your region permits. Setting
`session.audio_quality = Quality.hi_res_lossless` and calling
`track.get_stream()` on a track that's only available in AAC returns
an AAC stream with no error. The downloader wrote the m4a file to
disk, the ~7MB size sailed past the 100KB stub threshold, and the
download reported success.
The pre-existing "verify quality wasn't silently downgraded" block
only LOGGED a warning when this happened; it did not fail the tier.
Two knock-on effects:
- Users with "HiRes only, no fallback" got m4a files anyway, which
defeats the setting entirely.
- The worker-level fallback chain (hires → lossless → high → low)
couldn't advance past the first tier, because every tier
"succeeded" at whatever Tidal happened to serve.
Fix: after `track.get_stream()`, compare `stream.audio_quality`
against the tier we asked for using a rank-based ordering:
LOW < HIGH < LOSSLESS < HI_RES < HI_RES_LOSSLESS
- Same tier or higher → accept (so the occasional Tidal upgrade
doesn't get rejected just because it's not an exact match).
- Lower tier → reject THIS tier. The loop `continue`s and the next
fallback tier is tried, or the whole download fails honestly
when the user has fallback disabled. The existing final-error
log already has a hint directing users to enable fallback if
they want automatic Lossless substitution.
- Unrecognized `audioQuality` value (e.g. a new Tidal tier we
haven't mapped) → reject conservatively, so the next fallback
tier gets a chance and the diagnostic log names the unknown
value.
Why the rank-based approach instead of strict equality:
Tidal's API doesn't technically promise an exact-tier match on
serving; on tracks that are flagged in its catalog as a higher
tier, it can serve higher than the session setting. Rejecting
higher-than-asked quality would be user-hostile. And the `HI_RES`
(legacy MQA) value — not in tidalapi's modern `Quality` enum but
possibly still present on old catalog entries — needs to rank
below `HI_RES_LOSSLESS`: users asking for true lossless HiRes
should reject MQA since MQA is a lossy format.
tidalapi's `Quality` enum is a `str` subclass whose VALUES (not
member names) match what the Tidal API returns in the
`audioQuality` field (e.g. `Quality.hi_res_lossless.value ==
'HI_RES_LOSSLESS'`, `Quality.low_320k.value == 'HIGH'`). Both
sides of the comparison are coerced to `str` before use, so the
check is robust to whichever tidalapi version exposes the served
quality as an enum or a plain string.
The check is extracted as `_verify_stream_tier(stream, q_info,
q_key) -> (ok, reason)` at module scope — a pure function with no
I/O, unit-tested independently. Ten tests: match, three upgrade
cases (LOSSLESS → HI_RES_LOSSLESS, LOSSLESS → HI_RES, LOW → any
higher), three downgrade cases (the reported HiRes → AAC, HiRes
Lossless → MQA HiRes, Lossless → AAC), one unrecognized-tier case,
and two defensive paths for older tidalapi builds without
`audio_quality` on the stream object and for QUALITY_MAP entries
that lack `tidal_quality` (e.g. tidalapi wasn't importable at
module load). Test stub updated to use uppercase `Quality` values
matching real tidalapi so case-sensitivity regressions get caught.
Also removed the old codec-string-based warning block — the new
tier check is strictly stronger, and keeping the warning around
would just be dead code waiting to drift out of sync.
Deliberately NOT tackling in this PR (documented as follow-ups):
- Bit-depth verification of HiRes FLAC files via mutagen. The
`stream.audio_quality` tier check catches the main "HiRes
requested, got AAC" case; bit-depth would only matter if Tidal
labeled a stream HI_RES_LOSSLESS but served a 16-bit FLAC
(`Stream.bit_depth` isn't reliable for this — tidalapi defaults
missing `bitDepth` fields to 16, so a trust-the-stream check
would spuriously reject valid HiRes whenever Tidal omits the
field). A proper fix runs mutagen post-download to inspect the
actual file, then decides whether to delete + retry the next
tier — a whole new failure mode with design trade-offs that
deserve their own PR. The support logs don't show this
happening.
- The "manual remap still says Not Found" symptom. Might be
downstream of this same bug (silent-AAC "success" hitting a
later rejection), might be a separate task-state issue. Not
guessing without logs from the retry path.
- Quality-aware stub threshold. 100KB is a reasonable floor for
real stub/preview detection and there's no evidence the
universal threshold is misfiring in the wild.
Field-verified status: desk-verified via unit tests and empirical
checks against a live tidalapi import (confirming the `Quality`
enum's str-subclass behavior). Not yet smoke-tested end-to-end
against a real Tidal account with a HiRes-only-no-fallback
setting — Netti93 or anyone else with that config should notice
either the fix working (non-HiRes tracks fail honestly with a
clear log line) or any regression before wider release.
Files:
- core/tidal_download_client.py — new `_verify_stream_tier` helper

Reported on Discord by Netti93 — the "same account works via
Tidarr" comparison narrowed the cause to SoulSync's download path
rather than an account/region issue.
Reported by sassmastawillis: the Album Completeness maintenance job
scans 3127 albums in 0.1 seconds and reports 0 findings — for every
user, regardless of whether their library is actually complete.
Restoring an older DB surfaced 7 correct findings, so the code logic
works; the DB state is what's making everything look complete.
Root cause: `albums.track_count` is only ever written by server-sync
paths — Plex's `leafCount`/`childCount` and SoulSync standalone's
`len(tracks)`. It's the OBSERVED count of tracks SoulSync has indexed,
which is always exactly what `COUNT(tracks)` returns for that album.
The completeness job treated it as the EXPECTED total and compared it
against the observed count. They're equal by construction, so
`actual >= expected` is always true: skip, 0.1s scan, 0 findings.
Fix: new `api_track_count INTEGER` column on `albums`, written only by
metadata-source code paths. Populated in two places so the scan is
fast and the fallback is robust.
1. Enrichment workers — shared helper `set_album_api_track_count`
in `core/worker_utils.py`. Called by each worker's existing
`_update_album` method alongside its other album-column UPDATEs:
- spotify_worker: `album_obj.total_tracks` from the Spotify Album
dataclass (already in hand, zero new API calls)
- itunes_worker: same, from the iTunes Album dataclass
- deezer_worker: `nb_tracks` from full_data, falling back to
search_data when the full lookup didn't run
- discogs_worker: count of tracklist rows where `type_=='track'`
(Discogs tracklists interleave heading and index rows that
shouldn't count as songs)
Helper skips the write on zero/None/negative/non-numeric inputs
so a source lacking track info can't clobber a good value a
different source already wrote. Caller owns the transaction —
helper just queues an UPDATE on the caller's cursor without
committing, so it batches cleanly with each worker's existing
multi-UPDATE pattern.
Hydrabase worker deliberately not touched — it's a P2P mirror
that doesn't write album metadata to the local DB. Hydrabase-
primary users hit the fallback path below.
2. Album Completeness repair job — new `al.api_track_count` column
in the SELECT, read first in the scan loop. On miss (album never
enriched, or enrichment workers haven't run yet on a fresh
install), falls through to the existing `_get_expected_total()`
API lookup and persists the result via the same shared helper
(wrapped in connection/commit management since the repair job
runs outside a worker's batched transaction).
Also removed `al.track_count` from the scan's SELECT — now unused
since the observed count was the whole source of this bug, and
leaving a dead SELECT would invite a future engineer to re-introduce
the same comparison.
Help text on the job card was reworded so it honestly describes
current behavior ("counts cached during normal enrichment are used
when available; otherwise the job queries a metadata source
directly") rather than the old "active provider first, then others
as fallback" phrasing, which doesn't match how the cache actually
fills — any enrichment worker that runs can populate it, and the
last writer wins. Document-only follow-up if this edge case ever
bites in practice: add a `api_track_count_source` column so the
scan can prefer the configured primary source's count over others
(e.g. deluxe vs. standard edition mismatches). Not worth the
complexity today.
For existing users, the first completeness scan after upgrade is
fast to the extent their library is already enriched: the workers
already ran and populated `api_track_count` on their normal schedule.
For brand-new installs, the scan's fallback path handles the cold
start — slower, but correct, and subsequent scans are fast.
Does NOT affect:
- Download / post-processing / wishlist / sync code paths — none
of them read `track_count` for completeness semantics.
- Plex / Jellyfin / Navidrome / standalone sync — still write
`track_count` exactly as before; `api_track_count` is a separate
column they never touch.
- Other repair jobs.
- Any UI path — same finding schema, just correct counts now.
Files:
- database/music_database.py — idempotent migration adding
`api_track_count INTEGER DEFAULT NULL` to the existing album-column
check block.
- core/worker_utils.py — new `set_album_api_track_count` helper with
the documented skip-on-bad-input contract.
- core/spotify_worker.py, itunes_worker.py, deezer_worker.py,

job's fallback-path wrapper.

Credit: sassmastawillis spotted the bug; the "restored older DB
finds 7 albums" signal pinpointed DB state over code logic and
made the diagnosis tractable.
Three bugs from kettui's follow-up review pass on the MusicBrainz
search PR, all fixed in one commit because they share UI context.
1. Missing artist images on MB artist results
MusicBrainz doesn't store artist images directly. My earlier commit
returned `image_url=None` on every artist result and trusted the
frontend's lazy-loader — but the lazy-loader's `/api/artist/<id>/image?
source=musicbrainz` endpoint had no handler for MusicBrainz, so it
silently returned None and the emoji placeholder stayed.
Fix plumbs the artist name through:
- `renderCompactSection` stashes `data-artist-name` on artist cards.
- `search.js` and `downloads.js` lazy-loaders pass `name=<artist>` as a
query param.
- `/api/artist/<id>/image` accepts an optional `name` param.
- `metadata_service.get_artist_image_url` has a new `musicbrainz`
branch: since MB has no artist art, it searches fallback sources
(iTunes/Deezer by configured priority) for the artist name and
returns the first image found.
Verified live — Metallica/Kendrick Lamar/Daft Punk all resolve to
Deezer artist images via the name lookup.
2. total_tracks off-by-one on tracks with a release
`_recording_to_track` initialized `total_tracks = 1` and then summed
media track-counts on top. For an 11-track album, it reported 12. An
adapter-level regression introduced when the recording-projection
helper was extracted during the main MB refactor.
Fix: initialize at 0, sum normally. Standalone recordings with no
release (can happen for uncredited remixes etc.) still report 1 via
an explicit fallback — so the existing "single track" case isn't
broken.
3. "Artist Album Title" queries buried specific albums in the
discography list
Bare-name queries like "The Beatles Abbey Road" used to resolve "The
Beatles" as the artist and then browse their full discography — Abbey
Road was buried alphabetically among 200+ releases instead of being
the top result.
Fix adds a title-hint extractor. When the query starts with the
resolved artist name followed by more words, the trailing portion is
treated as a title hint. Browse results are filtered to those whose
release-group title contains the hint. If the filter matches nothing,
falls back to text-search with the hint as the title (the "keep the
old split-by-whitespace fallback" path kettui called for). If text-
search also misses, shows the full discography rather than nothing.
10 new tests in tests/test_musicbrainz_search.py (46 total):
- Title-hint extractor: basic match, case-insensitive, whitespace
tolerance, bare-artist-no-hint, artist-not-prefix-no-hint, word-
boundary required (no false splits on "Metallicasomething").
- Browse filtering by title hint.
- Text-search fallback when the title hint matches nothing in browse.
- Bare-artist queries return the full discography unfiltered.
- total_tracks for single-release, multi-disc, and no-release cases.
Self-audit catch: my earlier cover-art commit claimed 'the frontend's
<img onerror> fallback handles 404s' — that was wrong. The enhanced
search result images in shared-helpers.js renderCompactSection and all
five gsearch-item/track templates in downloads.js render bare
`<img src="...">` with no fallback. With the MusicBrainz adapter now
emitting Cover Art Archive URLs deterministically (no HEAD probe),
albums that don't have cover art would show the browser's broken-image
icon instead of the emoji placeholder.
Two fallback shapes:
- shared-helpers.js renderCompactSection: the `<img>` sits inside a
card with a sibling placeholder pattern. On error, replace the img's
outerHTML with the placeholder div, matching the shape used when
config.image is missing entirely.
- downloads.js gsearch items: the `<img>` sits inside a
`.gsearch-item-art` div whose default text content is the emoji fallback
(🎤 / 💿 / 🎶 / 🎵). On error, set parentElement.textContent to the
emoji, which wipes the img and shows the glyph. Same shape as the
"no image_url" branch.
Applies to every card type that renders a user-provided image URL so
the fix covers all sources that might return 404s — MB is the most
common offender but iTunes/Deezer/Discogs can all miss too.
Tested against the live MB API: Metallica albums without CAA cover art
now show the 💿 emoji instead of a broken-image icon.
The source-picker refactor introduced a new stable DOM structure inside
`#gsearch-results`:
<div id="gsearch-results"> <!-- max-height: 60vh, flex-col -->
<div id="gsearch-source-row" /> <!-- icon row, controller-rendered -->
<div id="gsearch-fallback-banner" />
<div id="gsearch-body" /> <!-- surface renders results here -->
</div>
But the companion CSS never landed. `#gsearch-body` had default block
layout, so when results exceeded the 60vh cap, they clipped silently
instead of scrolling. The old structure had `.gsearch-results-body`
with `overflow-y: auto; flex: 1` directly inside the panel; that rule
still exists but its selector now matches a nested div with no flex
parent, so `flex: 1` is a no-op and overflow doesn't trigger.
Fix: give the three stable children the right flex behaviour so the
body fills remaining space and scrolls.
- `#gsearch-source-row` and `#gsearch-fallback-banner` stay at natural
height (flex-shrink: 0).
- `#gsearch-body` grows (flex: 1 1 auto), can shrink below content
height (min-height: 0 — this is the critical bit, otherwise flex
items won't shrink below their intrinsic size and overflow never
triggers), and scrolls vertically.
Styled scrollbar matches the rest of the panel (4px, translucent thumb).
26 new unit tests in tests/test_musicbrainz_search.py covering:
- Cover Art URL construction (release + release-group scope, empty MBID,
unknown scope fallback)
- Structured query splitting (hyphen, en-dash, em-dash, bare name, no
false-positive splits on hyphens-inside-words)
- Artist search: score filtering, strict=False call contract, exception
handling, genre extraction from MB tags, mbid/name validation
- Top-artist resolver: memoization by normalized query, sub-threshold
returns None, negative-result caching, empty-query short-circuit
- Album search routing: bare query → browse path, structured query →
text path, no-artist-match falls back to text, text path score filter
- Track search routing: browse path, dedupe-by-title across
live/compilation variants, structured query → text path, text path
score filter
All mock the underlying MusicBrainzClient — no network calls.
Also adds a WHATS_NEW entry under 2.40 explaining the three user-visible
changes: Artists section now populates, album/track results match the
searched artist instead of random title collisions, and search completes
in ~3 seconds instead of 30+.
Clicking 'View Discography' on the Discover hero slideshow was calling
navigateToArtistDetail(id, name) without the third 'source' argument.
loadArtistDetailData then omits the `source` query param, so
/api/artist-detail falls through to a local DB lookup and returns 404
for artists that don't exist in the library — which is nearly every
hero artist, since they come from discover similar-artists.
Regression from the unification PR (93f1941) that rewrote the click
handler to route through the standalone /artist-detail page instead
of the old inline Artists view. The rewrite didn't thread the source.
Backend already includes `artist.source` on each hero entry. Fix:
- Stash artist.source as data-source on #discover-hero-discography
when displayDiscoverHeroArtist populates the card.
- Read data-source in viewDiscoverHeroDiscography and pass it as the
third arg to navigateToArtistDetail, so the eventual API call
includes `?source=itunes/deezer/etc.` and returns the synthesized
discography.
Reproduced by clicking View Discography on a non-Spotify hero artist
(log showed `GET /api/artist-detail/76258852?name=ДЕТИ+RAVE → 404,
Getting artist detail for ID: 76258852 (source=library)`).
Two bugs in the previous review-fix commits, found during a Cin-standard
re-audit:
A) Soulseek handoff stale state.query overrode the global widget's query
The previous fix pre-set basicInput.value before clicking the Search
page's Soulseek icon. But the click triggers onSoulseekSelected with
the controller's CURRENT state.query — which is whatever the user
last typed on /search, not the global widget's query. The Search
page callback then ran `if (query) basicInput.value = query;` and
overwrote the just-set value with the stale one before firing
performDownloadsSearch.
Fix: expose searchController as `_searchPageController` (mirrors
`_searchPageRestoreOnEnter` already at module scope). Global
widget's _gsNavigateToSearchPage syncs `_searchPageController.state.query`
to its own query before clicking the icon. Also added a fallback
for the case where the icon doesn't exist yet (controller still
mid-init): swap sections + run performDownloadsSearch directly.
B) Single _requestSeq token leaked loadingSources across sources
The earlier "stale request" fix used one global _requestSeq. But
when the user switched Spotify → Deezer mid-fetch, the Spotify
abort's catch block bailed (1 !== 2), leaving 'spotify' in
loadingSources forever — permanent spinner on the Spotify icon
even though no fetch was running for it.
Fix: per-source `_sourceRequestIds[src]` map. Same-source
supersession bails (correct), cross-source supersession still
clears the old source's loadingSources entry (correct).
Bonus defensive: submitQuery now invalidates every per-source token
and aborts the in-flight fetch when the query string changes. Catches
the residual edge case where user clears the input — the in-flight
fetch's settle would otherwise write stale data into the just-cleared
state.sources.
Cin flagged that Soulseek was always rendered as configured in the
source picker, even on dev instances with no slskd set up — letting
users click it and fire searches that could never succeed.
Three coordinated changes:
1. web_server.py SERVICE_CONFIG_REGISTRY: add Soulseek entry requiring
`slskd_url`. /api/settings/config-status now reports its real state
alongside every other service.
2. shared-helpers.js _ALWAYS_CONFIGURED_SOURCES: drop 'soulseek'. The
set is now just MusicBrainz + YouTube Music Videos (sources that
genuinely don't need user creds). Soulseek goes through the normal
config-status code path.
3. shared-helpers.js openSettingsForSource: special-case Soulseek to
route to Settings → Downloads tab (where slskd URL field lives,
gated behind the download-source-mode dropdown) and scroll to the
#soulseek-url input. Every other source still routes to Connections
and scrolls to its .stg-service card. Without this, Soulseek's
"click to configure" landed on a Connections card that doesn't
exist (Soulseek's URL/key fields are scoped to the download-source
selection on the Downloads tab).
Two AI-review findings from Cin (kettui) on the source-picker PR:
1. Soulseek handoff from global widget went through metadata flow
_gsNavigateToSearchPage(query, 'soulseek') wrote the query into
#enhanced-search-input and dispatched an input event. The Search
page controller's activeSource was whatever its default was
(spotify, deezer, etc.), so the debounced submitQuery ran the
enhanced /api/enhanced-search flow instead of the raw Soulseek
file search. The `src` parameter was effectively ignored.
Fix: when src === 'soulseek', pre-fill #downloads-search-input
directly and click the Search page's Soulseek icon. The icon click
triggers the controller's onSoulseekSelected callback, which owns
the section swap and re-runs performDownloadsSearch against the
value we just wrote to the basic input.
2. Stale in-flight requests cleared loadingSources after fast retype
createSearchController._fetchSource awaits the fetch result, then
unconditionally mutates state.loadingSources / state.sources in
the settle and catch blocks. When a user typed "abc" → fetch
started → typed "abcd" before the first fetch returned, the
second submitQuery aborted the first fetch and started its own.
The first fetch's catch (AbortError) then ran and cleared
loadingSources for that source — wiping the spinner the new
request had just set, and causing a brief flash of empty/error
state while the new fetch was still in flight.
Fix: monotonic _requestSeq token. Each _fetchSource call captures
the next value (++_requestSeq). Settle / catch blocks (and the
YouTube NDJSON streaming loop) bail before mutating shared state
if requestId !== _requestSeq. Existing abortCtrl behavior unchanged
— this is a layered defense for the catch-clobber pattern that
abort alone can't prevent.
The navigate-back fix from the previous commit was being immediately
undone by the document outside-click handler. Race:
1. Click on sidebar nav-button → button handler runs synchronously,
eventually calling _searchPageRestoreOnEnter → _renderFromState →
showDropdown removes `hidden` class
2. Click event bubbles up to document
3. Document outside-click handler sees dropdown is now visible, sees
the click target is a nav-button (not inside the search wrapper or
the source row), calls hideDropdown → instantly hidden again
Fix: defer the _renderFromState call to setTimeout(0). The macrotask
runs AFTER the click event finishes propagating, so by the time the
dropdown becomes visible, the document outside-click handler has
already short-circuited (it saw the dropdown still hidden).
User reported having to delete + retype the last character of the
query to force a re-render — which worked because the input event
listener fires submitQuery, which routes through the controller
without going through the deferred path.
Cin flagged two related UX issues during PR review:
1. The "Show Results / Hide Results" toggle next to the search bar served
no real purpose — there was nothing else on the Search page worth seeing
instead of results, so toggling visibility was always pointless overhead.
2. Navigating away from /search via a sidebar link dismissed the dropdown
(the click was caught by the outside-click handler). Coming back left
the input populated but the results hidden, requiring a Show Results
click or a fresh search. The cached state was intact in the controller
the whole time — just not rendered.
Both fixed by the same direction: dropdown visibility becomes a pure
function of query state, never user-toggleable. The closure now exposes
`_searchPageRestoreOnEnter` so subsequent calls to `initializeSearchModeToggle`
re-render from the controller's cached state instead of early-returning.
Removes the button HTML, click handler, `updateToggleButtonState` function,
the desktop + responsive CSS for `.enhanced-search-btn`, and the orphaned
`.btn-icon` rule. Net -94 lines.
The hourly `clean_search_history` automation was crashing with
`'DownloadOrchestrator' object has no attribute 'base_url'`. The guard
was written before the orchestrator refactor — `soulseek_client` is now
a DownloadOrchestrator that wraps individual download clients, with the
real Soulseek client sitting at `.soulseek`.
Two other call sites in web_server.py (lines 2634, 3092) already used
the correct `soulseek_client.soulseek.base_url` pattern with a getattr
guard. This call site was missed during the refactor.
Fix: reach through the orchestrator the same way the other sites do.
Both the Search page and the global search widget ran the same source-
picker state machine (query, activeSource, per-query cache, fallbacks,
loading set, configured-source discovery, NDJSON streaming for YouTube,
default-source fall-forward). That was ~380 lines of near-duplicated
logic split across search.js and downloads.js, which meant every bug fix
or behavior tweak had to land twice and inevitably drifted.
createSearchController in shared-helpers.js now owns all of that. Each
surface passes per-surface wiring — a source-row DOM element, a CSS
class prefix, and callbacks for Soulseek handoff + unconfigured-source
redirect — and consumes the controller's state via an onStateChange
callback. The surface files shrink to their actual responsibilities:
results rendering, click handlers, and surface-specific visibility.
Zero UX change. Every keystroke, icon click, cache hit, rate-limit
fallback, and unconfigured-source redirect behaves identically to before
— verified via full pytest suite (395 passed) and node --check on all
three files.
WHATS_NEW entry added under the 2.40 unified-search bucket.
The new components shipped this PR (source icon row, fallback banner,
glow aura, library-empty search CTA) had no responsive styling. On
phones the rows ran fine via horizontal scroll but the chips wasted a
lot of space per icon, the CTA could overflow on narrow screens, and
the aura kept its desktop-sized ellipse for no benefit.
At ≤768px (tablet/phone):
- Enhanced source row: tighter padding, 24x24 glyphs, 72px chip
min-width.
- Global widget source row: even tighter, 20x20 glyphs, 62px chips.
- Fallback banners scale down to match.
- Aura shrinks to a 440x160 / 540x200 ellipse and a 180px-tall strip
so it doesn't eat short mobile viewports.
- Library empty CTA allows text wrap + reduced padding so the
"Search online for "long artist name"" string doesn't break the
layout on narrow screens.
At ≤480px (phone):
- Enhanced chips drop to 44px min-width.
- Global widget chips drop to 40px.
- Both hide the source-name label, showing icon + tooltip only — the
full 8-source row now fits or scrolls minimally at that scale.
- Aura narrows further to 140px tall.
- Library CTA nudges down to 12px font.
Adds a subtle radial glow at the bottom of the viewport that emanates
from the floating search bar, fades outward toward both window corners,
and shrinks vertically as it moves away from the bar. Makes the bar
easier to spot at a glance without a heavy full-width bar or a chrome
strip.
- New `.gsearch-aura` fixed element, 260px tall, full width, pointer
events off. Radial-gradient with the accent color centered at the
bottom middle; colour stops taper 620x230px by default, ramping to
820x280px and brighter when the bar is focused/active.
- `_gsUpdateVisibility` hides the aura on /search alongside the bar
via a simple `.hidden` class.
- Focus handler adds `.active` to the aura in step with the bar;
`_gsDeactivate` removes it. z-index 99990 (below the bar at 99998,
above most page content).
When a user types an artist name into the library search and gets no
hits, the old empty state just said "No artists found — try adjusting
your search or filters." Dead end for the common case of "I searched
for someone I don't own yet."
The empty state now detects when libraryPageState.currentSearch is
non-empty and swaps in a CTA that hands the query off to /search:
"kendrick" isn't in your library
They might be available on a connected metadata source.
[🔍 Search online for "kendrick" →]
Clicking the button navigates to /search, pre-fills the enhanced search
input, and dispatches an input event so the existing debounced search
fires automatically. Uses the same hand-off pattern _gsNavigateToSearchPage
already uses for Soulseek, so the Search page's source-picker flow
picks up naturally from there.
No change to the generic empty state (no query active) or to any other
library page behaviour.
The picker used to render every source whether or not the user had
credentials for it. Clicking Discogs with no token, Hydrabase with no
URL, or Spotify with nothing saved would fire a doomed fetch — at best
a silent empty state, at worst a confusing fallback to another source.
Now the picker reads /api/settings/config-status (the same endpoint the
Settings → Connections page already uses for the green/yellow status
dot) on init and dims icons whose service isn't set up. Clicking a
dimmed icon navigates to Settings → Connections and scrolls to the
relevant service card with a brief accent-coloured pulse to orient
the user.
Sources the backend's SERVICE_CONFIG_REGISTRY doesn't cover
(musicbrainz, youtube_videos, soulseek) are permanently treated as
configured — they need no user credentials, so dimming them would
mislead.
Extra guard: if the user's configured primary metadata source is
itself unconfigured (Spotify saved as primary but no client_id yet),
`_initDefaultSource` falls forward to the first configured source so
the default active icon is never a "set up" chip.
Shared helpers:
- fetchSourceConfiguredMap() centralizes the config-status lookup for
both surfaces. Falls back permissively if the endpoint fails so the
picker never stops working over a network hiccup.
- openSettingsForSource(src) navigates to Settings → Connections and
scrolls to `[data-service=src]`, pulsing a 2.2s accent flash
(.stg-service-flash) so the user doesn't lose their place.
CSS:
- .unconfigured: 42% opacity, 0.7 grayscale filter, subdued hover
state with no transform/glow (feels "look but don't touch"),
defensive override to kill brand glow if somehow active.
- @keyframes stg-service-flash-anim for the scroll-to highlight.
The global search popover already draws its own frosted-glass panel
(via .gsearch-results), so putting another bordered/gradient container
around the source icons inside it read as "panel inside a panel" —
visually noisy and left a dark empty strip on the right when the row
didn't fill the popover width.
Strip the source row's own background/border, center-align the chips
(justify-content: center) so they stay grouped instead of drifting to
the left, and keep a subtle bottom divider so the icons still read as
a distinct control group above the results.
Dresses up the bare chip row so the picker reads as a deliberate piece of
UI rather than a utility bar. Both the Search page (.enh-source-*) and
the global widget (.gsearch-source-*) get the same treatment.
- The row itself is now a frosted-glass panel (subtle white gradient,
inner highlight, rounded 14px / 12px corners, outer shadow) so the
picker feels unified instead of a loose strip of buttons.
- Chips bumped: min-width 90px (row) / 72px (widget), bigger padding,
12px rounded corners, subtle linear gradient top-to-bottom, 30px icons
(up from 22px) with a drop-shadow for depth.
- Hover lifts the chip by 1px with a darker drop-shadow and brighter
border — cheap but effective microinteraction.
- Active state is brand-themed per source: the chip's background
becomes a top-weighted gradient in the service's colour, the border
matches, and an outer brand-coloured glow (6-22px blur) surrounds it.
scale(1.03) pops it above neighbours. Label bumps to 700 weight when
active. Same treatment for Spotify / Apple Music / Deezer / Discogs /
Hydrabase / MusicBrainz / Music Videos / Soulseek.
- Cache dot gets a brand-coloured glow and a subtle 2.4s pulse so the
"already fetched this query" hint is visible without being loud.
- Fallback-warning icons get an amber tint on both border and outer
ring to match the existing fallback banner colour.
Three follow-up fixes after browser testing:
1. Clicking a source whose results are already cached was closing the
results dropdown. The outside-click handler treated the icon click
as "outside" because the icon row lives above the input wrapper, not
inside it. The icon click handler now calls stopPropagation so the
document handler never runs. Also added an `#enh-source-row`
whitelist to the search-page outside-click handler as a second
layer of defense.
2. The icon chips used generic emojis (🎵, 🍎, 🎶, etc.) which don't
convey brand identity. SOURCE_LABELS now carries a `logo` URL per
source (mirroring the existing constants in core.js): the real
Spotify / Apple Music / Deezer / Discogs / MusicBrainz / Hydrabase /
Soulseek brand logos render as <img> inside the chip. Music Videos
stays on emoji since the codebase has no YouTube-specific logo
constant. renderSourceRow (Search page) and _gsSourceRowHtml (global
widget) both honor the new field; loading state still overrides
with an hourglass.
3. When Soulseek was selected, the icon row appeared clipped at the
top of the page. Caused by the flex parent (.downloads-main-panel)
compressing the row when .search-section.active competes for space
with flex-grow:1. Added `flex-shrink: 0` + explicit `overflow-y: visible`
on both .enh-source-row and .gsearch-source-row so the row keeps
its natural height even under layout pressure. Logo <img> elements
got explicit 22x22 / 18x18 containers so they render at chip scale
without the inline font-size hack.
The existing 2.40 WHATS_NEW entry described the short-lived "Search
from" dropdown that preceded this redesign. Updated to describe the
icon row + per-query cache + rate-limit fallback banner + global widget
parity that actually ships.
Click-for-help annotations and the "First Download" tour now point at
`#enh-source-row` (the new icon container) instead of the deleted
`.search-source-picker-container` dropdown and the deleted
`.enh-source-tabs` post-search tab bar. Adjusted the enhanced-search
tips so "multi-source tabs compare results" doesn't mislead — the
icons above the bar are how you compare now.
Version stays at 2.39 — the 2.40 WHATS_NEW section is accumulating
under the "Search & Artists unification" umbrella and will publish
when the whole 2.40 cycle ships.
Matches the Search page redesign so both surfaces behave identically.
The sidebar popover previously always fan-out-fetched all sources on
every keystroke (via _gsFetchSourceStream streaming NDJSON for every
alternate) and exposed a post-search tab bar to switch views.
Now:
- The popover renders an always-visible source icon row at the top, one
icon per source (Spotify, iTunes, Deezer, Discogs, Hydrabase,
MusicBrainz, Music Videos, Soulseek).
- Typing fetches only the currently-selected source. No fan-out.
- Clicking a different icon: cache hit -> instant re-render; cache miss
-> single-source fetch + render.
- Per-query cache cleared on query change; cache dots on icons show
which sources already have results for the current query.
- Default active source read from /api/settings (metadata.fallback_source)
on first focus; falls back to Spotify.
- Fallback banner shown when the backend served a different source than
the one clicked (rate-limit auto-fallback).
- Soulseek icon click navigates to /search with the query pre-filled,
since the raw file list doesn't fit the popover. The Search page
takes over rendering from there.
Gone: _gsFetchSourceStream (fan-out), _gsRenderTabs, _gsSwitchSource,
_gsState.altAbortCtrl, per-section _loading sets.
Added: _gsInitDefaultSource, _gsFetchSource, _gsFetchYouTubeVideos,
_gsSourceRowHtml, _gsFallbackBannerHtml, _gsSetActiveSource,
_gsNavigateToSearchPage.
The Search page previously fired a primary /api/enhanced-search request
plus a fan-out loop (_queueAlternateSourceFetches / _fetchAlternateSource)
that streamed NDJSON from /api/enhanced-search/source/<src> for every
other configured source. One search = 7 API calls across Spotify, iTunes,
Deezer, Discogs, Hydrabase, MusicBrainz, and YouTube Music Videos. The
post-search tab bar then let users switch views between the results that
had already been fetched.
This changes the default to explicit per-source selection:
- The old <select id="search-source-select"> dropdown and the
<div id="enh-source-tabs"> post-search tab bar are replaced by a
single always-visible icon row (#enh-source-row) above the search
bar. One button per source, horizontal-scroll on narrow screens.
- Typing fetches only the currently-selected source. No fan-out.
- Clicking a different icon switches to that source and fetches it
on demand, unless results for this query are already cached.
- Per-query cache (Map keyed by source) is cleared whenever the query
changes; cached icons show a small dot, loading icons show a spinner.
- Soulseek is a first-class icon in the row — selecting it routes to
the existing raw-file basic search, no change to that renderer.
- YouTube Music Videos is its own icon, still uses the NDJSON stream
endpoint for incremental rendering.
- Default active icon reads metadata.fallback_source from /api/settings
on init; falls back to Spotify.
- Rate-limit fallback (backend serves Deezer when Spotify is banned)
surfaces as an amber banner above results plus an amber border on the
clicked icon, so users understand why the returned results don't
match the source they picked.
SOURCE_LABELS in shared-helpers.js gains an 'icon' field per source and
a new SOURCE_ORDER constant for the canonical picker order. The fan-out
functions (_queueAlternateSourceFetches, _fetchAlternateSource,
renderSourceTabs, window._switchEnhSourceTab) are gone.
Backend untouched — POST /api/enhanced-search already supported a
`source` param for single-source mode; we were just never using it by
default. Global widget redesign to match is the next commit.
These three utilities lived inside search.js — the fetch helper at module
scope, and SOURCE_LABELS plus renderCompactSection as closures inside
initializeSearchModeToggle. The global search widget in downloads.js
already depends on enhancedSearchFetch via global scope and re-implements
the rendering inline.
Hoist all three to shared-helpers.js so both surfaces share the same
implementations. No behavior change — this is the refactor step that
precedes the source-picker redesign.
Also adds a 'soulseek' entry to SOURCE_LABELS for the upcoming icon row.
Four fixes from the review:
**library.js — back button stack (JohnBaumb):**
Replace the single-slot `artistDetailPageState.originPage` with an origin
stack. Chained navigation like Search → Artist A → similar Artist B →
similar Artist C now walks back one step at a time (C → B → A → Search)
instead of jumping straight to Search and skipping A and B.
`navigateToArtistDetail` takes an optional `{skipOriginPush}` flag so the
back button can re-enter a prior artist without re-pushing onto the stack.
Fresh entries from a non-artist page clear any stale stack from a prior
chain. Duplicate-click detection avoids pushing the same target twice.
Label derivation (`_updateArtistDetailBackButtonLabel`) reads the stack top
so the button says "Back to <ArtistName>" mid-chain and "Back to Search"
at the root.
**library.js — checkArtistEnhanceEligibility after library upgrade (Cin):**
The quality-analysis endpoint only works on library PKs. After the
library-upgrade branch rewrites `currentArtistId` from the source ID to
the library PK, the check was still using the original closure arg, so
upgraded source artists never hit `/api/library/artist/<id>/quality-analysis`.
Use `artistDetailPageState.currentArtistId` so the call gets the resolved id.
**init.js — isPageAllowed + home page recursion (Cin):**
- artist-detail is reachable from both Library and Search results now, so
permission check accepts either grant (plus legacy 'downloads'/'artists'
aliases). Search-only profiles can open source artists; legacy artists-only
profiles no longer recurse on the home redirect.
- `getProfileHomePage` rewrites 'artists' → 'search' (it already rewrote
'downloads') so legacy home_page values resolve correctly.
- Legacy-compat expanded in isPageAllowed to treat 'artists' as equivalent
to 'search' in both directions.
**init.js — profile edit forms dropping values on save (Cin):**
Both pageLabels maps (admin edit form + self-edit form) referenced the
legacy 'downloads'/'artists' keys. When editing a profile saved with
`home_page: 'search'` and `allowed_pages: ['search', 'library']`, the
home select didn't render a 'search' option, and the allowed_pages
checkboxes used 'downloads' as their value — so saving the form dropped
both values.
Update both maps to use 'search' as the canonical key. Add
`_normalizeLegacyAllowedPages` and `_normalizeLegacyHomePage` helpers that
migrate any legacy ids in allowed_pages/home_page on read, so a legacy
profile's first save upgrades its stored ids to the new canonical form.
The sticky .sidebar-header had two layered issues that let nav items
show through it while the user scrolled the sidebar:
- its background was a single linear-gradient of rgba() stops,
starting at ~14% accent on transparent — the upper portion of the
header was effectively translucent
- .sidebar > * sets z-index 1 on every sidebar child, so the header
and the nav buttons share a stacking level. Sticky alone doesn't
lift the header; with equal z-index the nav wins on DOM order
Layer the existing accent gradient over a solid rgb(18, 18, 18) base
(visual unchanged, fully opaque), and bump the header to z-index 2 so
it paints above the nav buttons as they scroll under it.
Cin: arriving at artist-detail from Search/Discover/Watchlist
highlighted the Library sidebar entry, which is misleading — the user
didn't navigate via Library. The hardcoded mapping was a holdover from
when artist-detail was reached only from the (now retired) Artists page.
Drop the special case so artist-detail behaves like playlist-explorer:
no [data-page] match in the sidebar, no highlight. The user's actual
origin page is already preserved on the back button.
The deep-link fallback in _getPageFromPath (artist-detail → library)
is left intact: if someone pastes /artist-detail in the URL bar with
no state to render, library is still the most sensible landing page,
and sidebar-highlighting Library in that scenario is correct because
they're literally on Library.
On the unified Search page the results dropdown was dismissed three
ways that didn't match user intent:
- clicking an album row called hideDropdown() before opening the
download modal, so the dropdown was already gone by the time the
modal closed
- clicking a track row did the same
- clicking the play button on a track row did the same
- the outside-click handler treated a click inside the download
modal (its close button or backdrop) as a click outside the
dropdown, dismissing it on modal close
Reported by Cin: "clicking an album in the search results opens a
download modal as expected, but closing said modal also hides the
search results in the same go."
Drop the explicit hideDropdown() calls from those three handlers and
whitelist .download-missing-modal in the outside-click handler. The
dropdown now persists across the click + modal lifecycle so the user
can pick another result without re-running the search. Artist clicks
still dismiss because they navigate to /artist-detail.
The global search popover keeps its existing dismiss-on-click
behaviour — its high z-index conflicts with the modal stack and
auto-dismiss is the right pattern for a Spotlight-style popover.
helper.js click-for-help annotations had ~10 entries pointing at DOM
elements from the retired inline Artists page (#artists-search-input,
#artists-back-button, #artists-results-state, #artists-cards-container,
#artists-hero-section, .artists-hero-name/badges/genres/bio/stats,
#artist-detail-watchlist-btn/-settings-btn, .artist-detail-tabs,
#albums-tab, #singles-tab, #album-cards-container, #singles-cards-
container) plus #similar-artists-section pointing at the legacy id
(now #ad-similar-artists-section on the standalone page).
Replaced the dead Artists-page block with annotations that target
elements actually present on the standalone /artist-detail page:
.album-card, .completion-overlay, #ad-similar-artists-section,
.similar-artist-bubble, plus a new entry for .search-source-picker-
container on the unified Search page.
docs.js: 'How to: Set Up Auto-Downloads' step 1 used to read 'Search
for artists on the Artists page and click the Watch button on each
one'. Updated to 'Find artists via the Search page (or click an
artist anywhere in the app), then click the Watch button on the
artist detail page' — matches the post-unification flow.
Backend API endpoint references in docs.js (/library/artists, etc.)
are unrelated to the retired frontend page and stay as-is.
The Top Tracks sidebar play button on the artist-detail page (and the
same buttons on the Stats page) called /api/stats/resolve-track and
gave up with a 'Track not found in library' toast on a miss.
Now when the library lookup misses, falls through to /api/enhanced-
search/stream-track — the same Soulseek/YouTube/streaming-source
pipeline the search-results play button uses. So Last.fm popular
tracks, recent plays, and stats artist top tracks all play even if
you don't own the track yet.
Library hit still wins (faster, full quality). Only on miss does it
escalate to streaming. Final error toast updated to reflect both
paths having been tried.
The library completion stream calls updateLibraryReleaseCard once per
release as ownership resolves. The handler was still updating the OLD
card markup (.completion-text + .completion-fill / .completion-bar),
so cards rendered with the new .completion-overlay badge stayed stuck
in the pulsing 'Checking…' state forever.
Now updates the new structure in place:
- Toggles the .completion-overlay state class (checking → completed
/ nearly_complete / partial / missing) which the existing CSS uses
to colour and stop the checking-pulse animation.
- Rewrites the inner .completion-status text:
Owned → '✓ Owned'
Partial → 'X/Y' (75%+ → nearly_complete badge, else partial)
Missing → 'Missing'
- Sets a tooltip on the overlay with detailed track counts.
Per-card .release-card.checking class also gets removed when state
resolves (stops the whole-card opacity pulse).
The standalone /artist-detail page rendered releases via createReleaseCard
in a stacked layout: square image on top, then title, then year, then a
completion bar — all inside a 300px-tall card with internal padding. The
inline Artists page (now retired) used a richer treatment: full-bleed
artwork with a dark gradient overlay and the title + year pinned at the
bottom. This commit brings that look to the standalone page.
Card markup (still .release-card so all the existing JS filter +
state hooks work, plus .album-card for the visual):
<div class="release-card album-card" ...>
<div class="album-card-image" data-bg-src="..."></div>
<div class="completion-overlay [state]">
<span class="completion-status">...</span>
</div>
<div class="album-card-content">
<div class="album-card-name">title</div>
<div class="album-card-year">year</div>
</div>
[optional .mb-card-icon]
</div>
Image loads lazily via the existing observeLazyBackgrounds /
data-bg-src plumbing in core.js — call moved into populateRelease-
Section so each batch of new cards gets observed.
Completion overlay (top-right floating badge):
- Library artists: 'Checking…' / '✓ Owned' / 'N/M' / 'X%' / 'Missing'
based on release.owned + track_completion shape (existing logic
preserved, just rendered as a badge instead of a bar).
- Source artists (no library data): omitted entirely. The card just
shows artwork + title + year, which is what the user asked for.
CSS: scoped overrides under #artist-detail-page .release-card.album-card
neutralize the old release-card background gradient, internal padding,
fixed 300px height, and flex column layout. Cards become aspect-ratio:1
square with overflow:hidden so the image fills and the gradient + text
sit on top.
Filter state (data-is-live / data-is-compilation / data-is-featured)
still tagged on each card so the Include filter group keeps working.
Smoke: library Kendrick Lamar should now look like the inline Artists
page used to — square cards, big artwork, name + year on the bottom.
Source-clicked artist (Schoolboy Q from Deezer) shows the same
visual without the completion overlay.
The "← Back to Library" button on /artist-detail was hardcoded to
navigate back to the Library page regardless of where the user came
from. Now it captures the originating page and labels/routes
accordingly.
navigateToArtistDetail captures currentPage at call time (before the
swap to artist-detail) and stashes it on
artistDetailPageState.originPage. Falls back to library when the
origin can't be determined or when chaining detail-to-detail (e.g.
clicking a Similar Artist on the detail page).
Back button label now adapts:
- From Library card click → "← Back to Library"
- From Search result → "← Back to Search"
- From Discover hero / Your Artists → "← Back to Discover"
- From Watchlist artist detail → "← Back to Watchlist"
- From Wishlist / Stats / Explorer / Automations / Dashboard etc.
→ corresponding labels
- Unknown origin → "← Back to Library"
Click handler navigates to the captured origin instead of always
going to library. State is cleared on click so a fresh artist-detail
view starts clean next time.
Two bugs from the source-artist click flow:
1. After the backend's library upgrade kicks in (clicking a Deezer
result for an artist you already own routes through the library
path), the response's data.artist.id is the library PK while
artistDetailPageState.currentArtistId still held the source id.
Toggling Enhanced view then fired
/api/library/artist/<source_id>/enhanced which 404'd because the
source id isn't a library PK.
loadArtistDetailData now updates currentArtistId from
data.artist.id whenever they differ — Enhanced view, completion
checks, server sync etc. all use the right id.
2. The Similar Artists section is part of the standard view and was
staying visible when Enhanced view toggled on. toggleEnhancedView
now hides #ad-similar-artists-section in the same flow that
hides .discography-sections.
Three issues from screenshots:
1. .collection-overview was hidden for source artists (CSS rule too
aggressive). It actually renders fine — just shows 0/N "missing"
for each release type, which is useful info. Removed from the hide
rules.
2. #artist-hero-sidebar (Top Tracks "Popular on Last.fm") was also
hidden. The renderer (_loadArtistTopTracks in library.js) already
fetches by artist name via /api/artist/0/lastfm-top-tracks, so it
works for source artists too. Removed from the hide rules.
3. Clicking a source-artist result for someone you ALREADY have in
the library was loading the bare source view instead of the
library view (bug). Backend now does a "library upgrade" lookup
in get_artist_detail: when the direct ID lookup misses but a
source param is provided, search the artists table by the source-
specific ID column (deezer_id / spotify_artist_id / etc.). If a
match exists, use that library PK and the rest of the library
path runs normally — owned releases, enrichment, completion
bars, all the goodies you'd see if you'd clicked from Library.
Falls back to a name match within the active server, then to the
source-only response if nothing matches.
The remaining library-only items (artist-enrichment-coverage, Radio
button, Enhance Quality button) stay hidden for source artists since
they all require owned tracks.
Source artists landing on /artist-detail were rendering an almost-blank
hero — image + name + a tiny Download button — because the backend
response only had {id, name, image_url, server_source: null, genres: []}.
The library.js renderers do their best with what they have, and that
wasn't much.
Backend changes (_build_source_only_artist_detail):
- Set the source-specific ID field (deezer_id / spotify_artist_id /
itunes_artist_id / discogs_id / soul_id / musicbrainz_id) on
artist_info so the corresponding service badge renders on the hero.
- Try the source's own get_artist_info / get_artist for genres +
followers (Spotify always; Deezer/iTunes/Discogs when available).
Spotify also fills image_url if metadata_service.get_artist_image_url
came up empty.
- Last.fm enrichment by artist name — bio + listeners + playcount +
lastfm_url. Mirrors what library artists get from the cached
enrichment workers but on demand for source artists.
- All enrichment lookups are wrapped in try/except so a 500 from any
one source doesn't break the whole response.
Frontend (library.js populateArtistDetailPage):
- Watchlist button now initialises for source artists too. Falls back
to artist.id + artist.name when there's no canonical Spotify
identity (which is the common case for non-library artists).
Discography dedup opt-out:
- Added dedup_variants flag to MetadataLookupOptions (default True so
library artists are unchanged). Source-only path now passes
dedup_variants=False so every "Deluxe Edition" / "Remastered" /
"Anniversary" variant the source returns is shown — matches the
inline /artists page behaviour the user was comparing against.
Result: source artists' hero now shows badges + bio + listeners +
playcount + watchlist button + genres in addition to image and name.
Discography lists every release the source returns, not the deduped
canonical view.
Completes the artist-detail unification. Source artists now land on
the same /artist-detail page as library artists (with the source-aware
backend endpoint from earlier this session handling the data fetch).
The inline Artists page is gone — artists.js deleted, #artists-page
HTML block removed, /artists URL aliases to /search.
Source-artist callsites re-migrated from selectArtistForDetail to
navigateToArtistDetail (search results, global widget, download
modal, Discover hero / Your Artists cards / artmap context / genre
deep-dive, watchlist artist detail).
Visual upgrade to standalone hero: added .artist-detail-hero-bg +
.artist-detail-hero-overlay (blurred image bg, dark gradient — same
treatment as the inline page). library.js sets the bg image when
loading an artist.
Library-only UI hidden via CSS for source artists (existing rules
from the previous commit cover Enhanced toggle, Status filter,
completion bars, enrichment coverage, Top Tracks sidebar, Radio /
Enhance buttons).
Final 2 helpers (lazyLoadArtistImages used by wishlist-tools,
showCompletionError used by completion checker) moved from
artists.js into shared-helpers.js. The inline-page candidate set
was dropped from _resolveSimilarArtistsTargets.
init.js: 'artists' alias added at top of navigateToPage (same
pattern as the existing 'downloads' alias). 'case artists:' handler
removed from loadPageData. _getPageFromPath now maps artist-detail
to library as its parent (matches the existing nav highlight at
init.js:2161).
tests/test_script_split_integrity.py: artists.js removed from
SPLIT_MODULES; KNOWN_CROSS_FILE_DUPES updated to point escapeHtml
at shared-helpers.js instead of artists.js. 354/354 tests pass.
Net delta: -1700 lines.
Stays at 2.39. Once you've verified end-to-end (library artist ->
hero looks like inline visual; source artist from Search -> same
page, similar artists works, no 404s; /artists URL -> /search), a
follow-up commit bumps to 2.40 with the full WHATS_NEW entry that's
already prepped.
The bubble click handler hardcoded selectArtistForDetail (the inline
Artists page navigator). On the standalone /artist-detail page it
fired but couldn't actually navigate anywhere — the page just
re-rendered the similar-artists section for the same artist instead
of moving to the clicked artist.
Now: detect whether the standalone page is active. If yes,
navigateToArtistDetail(id, name, source). Otherwise fall back to
selectArtistForDetail for the inline page (unchanged behaviour
there). Both surfaces work correctly without the caller having to
know which page they're on.
First increment of the artist-detail unification redesign. Delivers
the two most-visible missing pieces for source artists without touching
the hero layout — that's a later commit.
Changes:
- HTML: new #ad-similar-artists-section inside #artist-detail-main
(scoped IDs with 'ad-' prefix so they don't collide with the inline
Artists page, which has the same section using base IDs).
- shared-helpers.js: similar-artists helpers (loadSimilarArtists +
display/progressive/createBubble + lazy image loader) moved out of
artists.js. New _resolveSimilarArtistsTargets() resolver picks
whichever candidate set has a `.page.active` ancestor, so the same
function works on both the inline Artists page and the standalone
artist-detail page without caller changes.
- library.js populateArtistDetailPage: sets
document.body.dataset.artistSource = 'library' | 'source' before
rendering, and fires loadSimilarArtists(artist.name) after
populating the rest of the page.
- style.css: body[data-artist-source='source'] rules hide
library-only UI on the artist-detail page — Enhanced view toggle,
Status (owned/missing) filter, completion bars, enrichment
coverage, Top Tracks sidebar, Radio / Enhance Quality buttons,
"X owned / Y missing" section-stats counts. CSS-only, additive,
library artists completely unaffected.
Impact today:
- Library artists: Similar Artists section now appears at the
bottom of their detail page (previously only the inline Artists
page had it). All other UI unchanged.
- Source artists: still route to the inline Artists page (Part B
reverted earlier this session). The standalone page is now
source-ready infrastructure-wise, but source artists don't reach
it yet. A later commit will re-migrate source callers to the
standalone page once the hero rendering is also source-ready.
artists.js shrinks from 1903 -> 1584 lines (similar-artists block
extracted). shared-helpers.js grows correspondingly. 357/357 tests
still pass. No version bump — this is still 2.39 pending.
Part D + E of the deferred cleanup + the final version bump that
publishes the whole Search/Artists unification project.
Deletions:
- webui/static/artists.js (1903 lines) — removed entirely. The 2
remaining externally-referenced helpers (lazyLoadArtistImages +
showCompletionError) moved into shared-helpers.js first.
- webui/index.html — 140-line #artists-page HTML block and the
<script src="artists.js"> tag both removed.
init.js wiring:
- 'case artists:' removed from loadPageData switch (no page to init).
- navigateToPage top-level alias extended: 'artists' → 'search'
(same pattern as the existing 'downloads' → 'search' alias).
Legacy /artists bookmarks land on the unified Search page, the
natural place to find an artist now.
- _getPageFromPath now maps artist-detail → library as its parent
(was artists). Matches the existing library-nav-highlight at
init.js:2161.
Version bump:
- _SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION 2.39 → 2.40.
- WHATS_NEW entries lose the 'unreleased' scaffolding and gain a
new top entry summarizing the unified artist-detail page + the
final artists.js retirement.
- version-info modal gets a 'Search & Artists Unification' section
at the top.
- The _getLatestWhatsNewVersion filter added during the unreleased-
tracking phase is rolled back — entries now display as soon as
they land in WHATS_NEW, matching the pre-unification behaviour.
Test suite:
- tests/test_script_split_integrity.py SPLIT_MODULES updated:
'artists.js' dropped, 'shared-helpers.js' added. escapeHtml's
cross-file dupe list entry updated to reference shared-helpers.
- 354/354 tests pass.
User-visible result after this commit:
- Sidebar: Search, Downloads, Discover, Library, Wishlist, etc. —
no more Artists entry.
- Click any artist anywhere: lands on the same /artist-detail page.
- Search page has a source dropdown; Soulseek is just another option.
- Legacy /downloads and /artists URLs alias to /search.
- Version button shows v2.3 (Docker major); "What's New" panel
opens to the unification summary.
Closes the project Cin requested in Discord. Future work: source-aware
/api/artist-detail could be extended to fall back through the whole
source priority chain when a specific source is given but returns no
discography. Not needed for the current flows.
Part B of the deferred unification cleanup. Now that Part A teaches
/api/artist-detail/<id> to fall back to a metadata-source lookup when
the library DB lookup misses, source-artist clicks can finally land
on the standalone page without 404ing — the goal Phase 4a aimed for
and had to roll back in commit 19e9174.
Re-migrating the seven callsites reverted earlier in this session:
- search.js enhanced-search source-artist onClick
- downloads.js _gsClickArtist (global widget non-library branch)
- downloads.js _navigateToArtistFromModal fallback
- discover.js viewRecommendedArtistDiscography
- discover.js viewDiscoverHeroDiscography
- discover.js 'Your Artists' card navAction inline onclick
- discover.js 'Your Artists' info-modal 'View All' button
- discover.js artist-map context menu
- discover.js genre-deep-dive artist click
- api-monitor.js watchlist discography view
Each replaces the navigateToPage('artists')+setTimeout+selectArtist-
ForDetail dance with a single navigateToArtistDetail(id, name,
source) call. The third arg seeds artistDetailPageState.currentArtist-
Source, which library.js now reads and forwards as ?source= to the
backend (added in Part A).
Effect: clicking an artist in any of these surfaces now lands on the
standalone /artist-detail page with a stable URL, source context
preserved, and owned-library data merged in when available. Library
artist clicks (unchanged) and media-player / stats links (unchanged)
all continue to use navigateToArtistDetail too, so they now
consistently share one destination.
The inline Artists page (#artists-page + selectArtistForDetail in
artists.js) still exists but has no external callers left — only the
page's own internal search-result click handler references the
function now. Parts D + E will delete the dead inline page and
finally remove artists.js.
Part A of the deferred unification cleanup. The standalone artist-
detail endpoint used to 404 whenever `artist_id` wasn't a local library
primary key, which is exactly what source artists (Deezer/Spotify/
iTunes/etc.) have. That forced the Phase 4a revert: source artists had
to use the inline Artists page because this endpoint couldn't handle
them.
New behaviour:
- Library PK path — unchanged. Existing callers see the same response.
- `/api/artist-detail/<id>?source=<src>&name=<name>` with source in
(spotify, itunes, deezer, discogs, hydrabase, musicbrainz) — when
the library DB lookup misses, synthesize a response by:
• fetching artist image via metadata_service.get_artist_image_url
with source_override (the helper already backing /api/artist/
<id>/image)
• fetching discography via metadata_service.get_artist_detail_
discography with MetadataLookupOptions(source_override=source,
artist_source_ids={source: artist_id})
• returning { success, artist: {id, name, image_url, server_source:
null, genres: []}, discography, enrichment_coverage: {} }
- Library PK missing AND no source — preserves the 404 (caller didn't
give enough info to fall back).
Frontend plumbing: library.js loadArtistDetailData now appends
?source=<src>&name=<name> to the fetch URL when
artistDetailPageState.currentArtistSource is set. The field is already
seeded by navigateToArtistDetail's third arg (added during the earlier
unification work), so no new state plumbing is needed.
populateArtistDetailPage gracefully handles the missing-library-data
case per earlier exploration — owned_releases empty is fine,
enrichment_coverage optional, spotify_artist_id optional.
Part B will re-route the source-artist callsites (Search / Discover /
Watchlist / etc.) back through navigateToArtistDetail so they actually
exercise this new fallback path.
Part C of the deferred unification cleanup. The Artists page is no
longer in the sidebar, but its JS file can't be deleted yet because
it houses ~20 general-purpose helpers that other modules depend on
(escapeHtml used in 229 places, service-status polling, image-colour
extraction, download-bubble infrastructure, discography completion
checking, enrichment card rendering).
Moved all non-page-specific code from artists.js into the new
webui/static/shared-helpers.js — pure copy/paste, zero logic change.
Two contiguous blocks extracted:
Block A (lines 1097..1398 of original artists.js): discography
completion suite — checkDiscographyCompletion, handleStreaming-
CompletionUpdate, cacheCompletionData, updateAlbumCompletion-
Overlay, getCompletionStatusText, setAlbumDownloadedStatus,
setAlbumDownloadingStatus.
Block B (lines 2206..EOF of original artists.js): download-bubble
infrastructure (artist + search + Beatport clusters with their
snapshot/hydrate/modal/monitor helpers), openDownloadMissingModal-
ForArtistAlbum, image-colour extractor and dynamic-glow helper,
escapeHtml, service-status polling, renderEnrichmentCards.
Function declarations in a plain <script> tag are auto-global, so all
existing callers continue to resolve without any import/export
changes. Load order in index.html: shared-helpers.js loads right
after core.js (which defines the artistDownloadBubbles / search-
DownloadBubbles / beatportDownloadBubbles globals these helpers use).
Stats:
artists.js: 4638 → 1903 lines (-2735)
shared-helpers.js: new, 2762 lines
No function duplicated between the two files
All 357 tests pass (3 new from split-integrity parametrization)
What's left in artists.js is purely the Artists page — search UI,
detail view, state switching, watchlist button, discography loading.
All of that is reachable only by typing /artists in the URL bar
since the sidebar entry was retired in Phase 4b. Parts D + E will
delete that remainder and the file itself.
When the user reached the inline Artists detail view from outside
the Artists page and no browser history is available (direct
bookmark), fall back to the Search page instead of Dashboard.
Search is the natural next step for finding a different artist.
Reverts the 2.40→2.49 version spam from this session — every phase
commit was bumping the display version when the whole Search/Artists
unification project should really be a single release.
Changes:
- _SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION back to 2.39
- All session-level version-info sections consolidated — the endpoint
response is back to the pre-session 2.39 shape
- helper.js WHATS_NEW entries for 2.40–2.49 collapsed into a single
'2.40' block with one bullet per phase, marked unreleased
- _getLatestWhatsNewVersion / _showOlderNotes filter out entries
whose version is higher than the current build, so the 2.40 block
won't fire the 'new' badge or appear in the What's New panel until
we actually flip the build version
- Picks up the artist-detail back-button fix from the previous turn
(falls back to browser history when the user reached the inline
detail from outside the Artists page)
When the unification project is done, a single commit that bumps
_SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION to 2.40 will publish the whole folded entry.
Phase 4a (9361c29) mistakenly routed every artist click to
navigateToArtistDetail, which fetches /api/artist-detail/<id>. That
endpoint only knows how to look up local DB primary keys. For source
artists (Spotify/Deezer/iTunes/etc.) the id is a metadata-source id,
not a library PK — so clicks 404'd out.
Library artists (db_artists section in search results, library page
clicks, stats links, media player) continue to go to the standalone
/artist-detail page as before. Source artists now route back to the
Artists page's inline view via selectArtistForDetail, which calls
/api/artist/<id>/discography with a source param — the endpoint that
actually handles non-library IDs.
Reverted 7 migration points:
- search.js: Enhanced Search source-artists onClick
- downloads.js: global widget _gsClickArtist non-library branch
- downloads.js: _navigateToArtistFromModal fallback
- discover.js: viewRecommendedArtistDiscography
- discover.js: viewDiscoverHeroDiscography
- discover.js: 'Your Artists' card name-click inline HTML
- discover.js: 'Your Artists' info-modal 'View All' button
- discover.js: artist-map context menu
- discover.js: genre-deep-dive artist click
- api-monitor.js: watchlist artist discography view
Phase 4a's goal of "one artist page for everything" is deferred —
it needs backend work on /api/artist-detail to accept a source param
and fall back to metadata-source lookup when the local DB lookup
fails. Keeping the signature extension on navigateToArtistDetail
(source parameter) in place for when that lands.
Phase 4c of the Search/Artists unification — docs-only cleanup.
The click-for-help system and the 'Your First Download' guided tour
referenced elements that no longer exist (the Basic/Enhanced toggle,
the embedded download-manager toggle, the active/finished queue
panels). Updated annotations + tour steps to match the current UI.
- New annotation for .search-source-picker-container (the dropdown)
- Removed 6 annotations for deleted elements
- 'first-download' tour now walks users through the source picker
and uses page: 'search' (PAGE_TOUR_MAP accepts both 'search' and
the legacy 'downloads' id so older bookmarks still match)
- Retired the 'artists-browse' standalone tour — no sidebar entry
- Dropped the dead #finished-queue detection in the setup milestone
check (the dashboard stat card is the single source of truth)
Phase 4b of the Search/Artists unification. Cin flagged that 'Artists'
in the sidebar read like a library section but was actually a
dedicated artist-search page, duplicating what unified Search already
does. Removed the sidebar entry so users funnel through Search.
- Sidebar Artists button gone
- 'Browse Artists' on empty Watchlist now opens Search
- 'View artist from Wishlist' opens Search pre-filled with the name
- Profile Home Page + Page Access drop the Artists option
artists.js stays on disk: it defines ~30 shared helpers used across
the app (escapeHtml, openDownloadMissingModalForArtistAlbum, service
status, download bubbles, image helpers) that library/discover/etc.
depend on. Wholesale deletion would orphan too much. The inline
Artists page and its selectArtistForDetail flow are still there —
just unreachable from the sidebar — so /artists deep links keep
working for bookmarks.
Phase 4a of the Search/Artists unification. The app had two artist-
detail implementations: the standalone page Library navigates to via
navigateToArtistDetail (its own route, deep-link support, highlights
Library in the sidebar), and an inline state inside the Artists page
reached via selectArtistForDetail. They rendered similar content but
were separate code paths and kept drifting apart (PR #356 just had
to fix source propagation in both).
Every external caller of selectArtistForDetail (9 sites across
api-monitor.js, discover.js, downloads.js, search.js) now calls
navigateToArtistDetail(id, name, source) directly. Removed ~63 lines
of the navigate-then-setTimeout-then-select dance. Source context
(Spotify/iTunes/Deezer/etc.) carries cleanly through via the new
third argument.
Artists sidebar entry, its inline search, and selectArtistForDetail
all still work — they just have no external callers. Phase 4b will
retire the sidebar entry and artists.js.
Phase 3c of the Search/Artists unification. The Search page carried
a second copy of the Download Manager (active + finished queues,
clear/cancel-all buttons) that was hidden by default and duplicated
the dedicated Downloads page. That duplicate is now gone.
Removed:
- Side-panel HTML block and the toggle button that showed/hid it
- ~290 lines of polling + render infra in downloads.js: loadDownloads-
Data, startDownloadPolling/stopDownloadPolling, updateDownload-
Queues, renderQueue, updateTabCounts/updateDownloadStats,
initializeDownloadTabs/switchDownloadTab, cancelDownloadItem,
clearFinishedDownloads, cancelAllDownloads, and the
activeDownloads/finishedDownloads globals
- initializeDownloadManagerToggle and its call from init.js
- Stopped hitting /api/downloads/status every second on the Search
page (the dedicated Downloads page already polls its own view)
CSS grid for the Search page collapsed from '1fr 370px' to '1fr' now
that the right panel is gone. Unused .controls-panel__* / .download-
manager__* / .downloads-side-panel CSS rules kept in place — harmless,
can be pruned later.
Phase 3b of the Search/Artists unification. The Search page's
internal id was 'downloads', which clashed with the actual Downloads
page (id 'active-downloads') and confused anyone reading the code.
Renamed to 'search' across HTML, navigation, DOM selectors, and the
deep-link route list.
Backwards compat: navigateToPage('downloads') aliases to 'search'
at the top of the function; /downloads URL still serves index.html
and the client router resolves the page correctly; profile ACL
checks accept both 'search' and 'downloads' so existing profiles
with 'downloads' in allowed_pages keep working without migration.
Sidebar label unchanged. Zero visual change — pure internal tidy.
Phase 3 of the Search/Artists unification. The Search page's two-mode
toggle is replaced by a single 'Search from' dropdown: All sources
(Auto), Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Discogs, Hydrabase, MusicBrainz,
or Soulseek (raw files). Auto keeps today's fan-out behavior for
backwards compatibility; picking a specific source hits only that
provider. 'Soulseek' routes to the raw-file basic section, so one
picker covers both old modes. Loading text and the enhanced fetch
now respect the selected source. Zero API changes — uses the source
param added in 2.40 and the shared fetch helper from 2.41.
Phase 2 of the Search/Artists unification: the Search page dropdown
and the global spotlight widget both POST to /api/enhanced-search
with identical boilerplate. Extracted into enhancedSearchFetch() in
search.js (loaded before downloads.js). Both callers migrated. Zero
UX change — purely sets up Phase 3 to wire a source picker in one
place instead of two.
Phase 1 of the Search/Artists unification project: the endpoint now
accepts an optional `source` (spotify, itunes, deezer, discogs,
hydrabase, musicbrainz) so callers can target a single metadata source
instead of always fanning out. Omitted or `auto` preserves current
multi-source behavior — no existing callers break. Cache keys include
the source tag so per-source and fan-out results don't collide.
- Pass source through artist, library, wishlist, and rehydration album-track fetches
- Preserve the resolved metadata source on cached discography and artist detail state
- Prevent 404s when opening artist-page album modals from non-Spotify sources
User reported searching "Maduk - Leave A Light On" on Tidal silently
downloaded Tom Walker's completely different song of the same name, then
embedded Maduk's metadata into Tom Walker's audio. Three layers of
defense all failed permissively. Two of them are fixed here; the third
(score formula weights) was left alone since these two together cover it.
Layer 1 fix — candidate artist gate (web_server.py:27782)
Old: `if _best_artist < 0.4 and confidence < 0.85: continue`
New: `if _best_artist < 0.5 and confidence < 0.85: continue`
SequenceMatcher returns exactly 0.400 for "maduk" vs "tom walker"
(5-char vs 10-char strings with coincidental char matches), which
slipped past the strict `< 0.4` check. The word-boundary containment
check earlier in the function already short-circuits legitimate
formatting variations to sim=1.0, so falling to SequenceMatcher means
strings are genuinely different. 0.5 closes the fencepost AND gives
a small safety buffer.
Layer 3 fix — AcoustID verification (acoustid_verification.py:316)
When title matches but artist doesn't AND expected artist isn't found
anywhere in AcoustID's returned recordings:
Old: always SKIP (let file through, assume cover/collab)
New: FAIL if artist_sim < 0.3 (clear mismatch)
SKIP if artist_sim >= 0.3 (ambiguous — cover/collab/formatting)
The 0.3 cutoff catches hard mismatches like Maduk/Tom Walker (sim ~0.2)
while preserving benefit-of-the-doubt for borderline artist formatting
differences. Legitimate covers and collabs where the expected artist
appears anywhere in AcoustID's recordings still PASS via the existing
secondary-match loop above.
Both fixes are defense-in-depth — either alone would have caught this
bug. Together they close the pre-download AND post-download gaps.
All 292 tests pass. Version bumped to 2.39 with changelog entries.
New smart template variable that emits "CD01" / "CD02" etc. in filenames
on multi-disc albums, and expands to empty string on single-disc albums
so mixed libraries don't end up with "CD01" on every single.
Template behaviour:
- total_discs > 1 -> "CD{disc:02d}" (zero-padded, CD prefix)
- total_discs <= 1 -> empty string
- Both $cdnum and ${cdnum} bracket form supported
- Empty value collapses cleanly via existing double-dash regex plus new
leading-dash cleanup pass
Wiring:
- _apply_path_template in web_server.py (download pipeline)
- _apply_path_template in core/repair_jobs/library_reorganize.py
(Reorganize repair job)
- total_discs added to every album-mode template context:
* download pipeline album branch (uses resolved total_discs even for
single-track downloads from search)
* per-album Reorganize preview + apply endpoints (pre-scan all track
tags once, take max disc_number)
* Library Reorganize repair job (already had album_total_discs map,
just added to context dict)
Leading-dash cleanup added to _get_file_path_from_template (web_server)
and _build_path_from_template (library_reorganize) so templates like
"$cdnum - $track - $title" don't leave "- 05 - Title" on single-disc
albums.
UI:
- Template hint in Settings -> File Organization documents $cdnum
- Template validation variable list includes $cdnum
- Reorganize modal variable reference shows $cdnum with example "CD01"
Verified:
- Multi-disc disc 1 -> "CD01 - 05 - Track"
- Multi-disc disc 2 -> "CD02 - 05 - Track"
- Single-disc -> "05 - Track" (no leading dash)
- Templates without $cdnum behave unchanged
- 276/276 tests pass
Three closely-related changes bundled together. The UI work exposed the
backend bug when I tried to cancel a Deezer download and saw it marked
cancelled in the DB but continuing in the background.
Backend — cancel_task_v2 orchestrator dispatch fix:
The slskd-specific cancel block was written back when soulseek_client
was a raw SoulseekClient. It was later swapped to DownloadOrchestrator
(which doesn't expose .base_url / ._make_request), so the first
diagnostic log line crashed with AttributeError. The outer try/except
swallowed it, leaving streaming downloads (YouTube / Tidal / Qobuz /
HiFi / Deezer / Lidarr) running in the background after the user
clicked cancel.
Replaced the ~80-line block with a single
soulseek_client.cancel_download(download_id, username, remove=True)
call — the orchestrator's dispatch picks the right client by username,
same path /api/downloads/cancel already uses successfully.
Per-row cancel button (fancy):
Circular X button on .adl-row for rows in active or queued state.
Hidden by default (opacity 0, translateX + scale), fades in + settles
on .adl-row:hover with a cubic-bezier overshoot. Own :hover gives a
1.12x scale pop and brighter red glow. Touch devices (@media
(hover: none)) keep it visible.
Backend: surfaced playlist_id in /api/downloads/all items so the
frontend can hit cancel_task_v2 without a second lookup. Frontend:
adlCancelRow(btnEl, playlistId, trackIndex) with double-click guard
via data-cancelling + adl-row-cancel-pending class.
Cancel All header button:
Red-themed button next to "Clear Completed". Only visible when any
task is in downloading / searching / post_processing / queued state —
auto-hides the moment the last one finishes. Confirm dialog shows
"Cancel N tasks across M batches?". Iterates _adlBatches, calls
/api/playlists/<batch_id>/cancel_batch sequentially (same endpoint
each modal's "Cancel All" and the per-batch-card cancel use). Disables
during the loop, mixed/success/error toast based on result.
All 276 tests pass.
- Abort Beatport content loading when leaving the Sync/Beatport tab
- Stop Beatport slider autoplay plus discovery and sync subscriptions on exit
- Make Beatport bubble hydration cancellable so hidden tabs do not keep fetching
Companion fix to the provider-hardcode bug (6ceedc8). The cache
matched_data built by the 5 update_match / fix endpoints was dropping
image_url and album.images when album came back as a bare string —
common for Deezer and iTunes search results. Cache hits on re-discovery
then produced downloads with no artwork.
Each save site now carries image info through:
- album_obj gets image_url + images:[{url}] populated from spotify_track.image_url
- matched_data adds top-level image_url for pipeline consumers that check there
- Works for both dict-shaped album (Spotify) and string-shaped album (Deezer/iTunes)
Mirrors the handling already present in _build_fix_modal_spotify_data for
the in-memory result['spotify_data'] — explains why the UI showed art fine
during the fix modal but the cached entry lost it after restart.
save_discovery_cache_match uses INSERT OR REPLACE, so existing bad cache
entries refresh when the user re-fixes the track. No manual cache clearing
needed.
Added to 2.38 changelog (same round of discovery-fix work).
Five update_match endpoints hardcoded the provider as 'spotify' when
saving manual fixes to the discovery cache, but the re-discovery worker
queries the cache with _get_active_discovery_source() — the user's
actual primary. If the primary was Deezer/iTunes/Discogs/Hydrabase, the
provider column never matched, so every manual fix looked like it
vanished on restart.
Replaced 'spotify' with _get_active_discovery_source() at all 5 sites:
- Tidal update_match (web_server.py:34569)
- Deezer update_match (web_server.py:36235)
- Spotify Public update_match (web_server.py:37084)
- YouTube update_match (web_server.py:38037)
- Discovery Pool fix (web_server.py:49787)
Now symmetric with how the auto-discovery workers already save. Spotify-
primary users see no change (the hardcoded value matched their source).
Version bumped to 2.38 with changelog + version-info entries.
Cancel button on active download items was always visible, cluttering
the card. Now hidden by default and fades in when you hover the card
(or focus anything inside it, for keyboard a11y).
- opacity + pointer-events approach so layout doesn't jump on reveal
- 4px slide-in on reveal for a subtle entrance
- Touch devices (hover: none) keep the button always visible — no hover
means no way to discover it otherwise
Two bugs reported in issue #320:
1. Auto-watchlist scan bypassed Global Override settings.
scan_watchlist_profile applied _apply_global_watchlist_overrides, but
the scheduled auto-scan called scan_watchlist_artists directly —
bypassing the override. Users who unchecked "Albums" or "Live" under
Watchlist → Global Override still saw full albums and live tracks
added during nightly scans (per-artist defaults, which include
everything, won).
Moved override application into scan_watchlist_artists itself so
every entry point respects it. scan_watchlist_profile now forwards
the apply_global_overrides flag through to avoid double-application.
2. is_live_version (watchlist + discography backfill) and
live_commentary_cleaner's content patterns used bare \blive\b, which
matched verb uses like "What We Live For" by American Authors,
"Live Forever" by Oasis, "Live and Let Die" by Wings.
Tightened the live patterns to require clear recording context:
(Live) / [Live Version] / - Live / Live at|from|in|on|version|
session|recording|performance|album|show|tour|concert|edit|cut|take
/ In Concert / On Stage / Unplugged / Concert.
Locked in 11 regression tests covering the reported false positives
(What We Live For, Live Forever, Living on a Prayer, Live and Let Die)
and the reported true positives (Dimension - Live at Big Day Out,
MTV Unplugged, etc.).
Version bumped to 2.37 with changelog entries.
_loadCacheHealthStats ran async from loadRepairFindingsDashboard and
appended a new .repair-cache-health div each time. If the dashboard
refreshed while earlier fetches were still in flight, each resolving
fetch appended its own section — producing 2–6 stacked copies.
Now each fetch removes any existing .repair-cache-health inside the
dashboard before appending, so at most one bar is ever visible.
Root-cause fix for "scanning 50 artists" then silence: when the master
repair worker was paused, force-run still kicked off _run_job but the
job's first wait_if_paused() blocked forever because is_paused was tied
to the master-enabled state. Force-run now bypasses master-pause —
scheduled runs still respect it.
Also fixes Fix All on discography findings doing nothing: the backend
bulk_fix_findings query had a fixable_types allowlist that excluded
missing_discography_track (and acoustid_mismatch). Added both.
Backfill job rebuild:
- auto_add_to_wishlist opt-in setting — creates findings AND pushes to
wishlist during the scan
- 3-option fix dialog (Add to Wishlist / Just Clear / Cancel) on single
Fix, Bulk Fix selection, and Fix All (page-level)
- Fix All "Just Clear" path uses the clear endpoint with job_id filter
instead of the generic "may delete files" bulk-fix warning
- Batched in-memory matching using get_candidate_albums_for_artist +
get_candidate_tracks_for_albums (same fast path the Library pages use)
- Rich album context per finding (id, name, album_type, release_date,
images, artists, total_tracks) — flows through the wishlist pipeline
so auto-processor classifies each track into the right cycle
(albums vs singles) and post-processing gets correct folder/tags/art
- Per-artist progress logs [N/50] Scanning ArtistName
- Default interval 24h (was 168h); all release types default on; settings
reordered with _section_* group headers (Core / Release Types /
Content Filters)
Repair settings UI:
- Generic _section_<name> key convention renders as an uppercase group
divider in the settings panel — any job can opt in
- .repair-setting-row gets a dashed bottom border so label↔toggle pairing
is visually clear
- _prettifyRepairSettingKey fixes acronym capitalization (EPs, not Eps)
Version bumped to 2.36 with changelog entries.
User reported: after clicking Fix on a Not-Found discovery track and
picking a replacement in the fix modal, the resulting download card had
no cover image, and the track seemed to still behave like a Wing-It
stub. Both suspicions were correct. Three compounding bugs:
1. /api/spotify/search_tracks returned only id/name/artists/album/
duration_ms — no image_url — unlike the sibling /api/itunes/ and
/api/deezer/ endpoints which include image_url. The fix modal had
no image data to work with when users searched via Spotify.
2. Frontend selectDiscoveryFixTrack discarded any image info it did get
and posted the same minimal shape to the backend.
3. All 7 backend discovery/update_match endpoints built
result['spotify_data'] with 'album' as a bare string (track.album
which is just the album name). The download pipeline expects
spotify_album to be a dict with image_url or images[].url — a string
yields blank cover art. Normal discovery workers already build album
as a rich dict; the fix-modal path was the anomaly.
4. Bonus: result['wing_it_fallback'] was never cleared on manual match.
Tracks fixed after the auto Wing-It fallback kept the flag set, so
downstream code checking it treated them as wing-it even though the
user picked real metadata.
Changes:
- New helper _build_fix_modal_spotify_data(spotify_track) in web_server.py
near _build_discovery_wing_it_stub. Handles both string and dict album
inputs, normalises to a dict with image_url and images populated when
the payload carries one. Matches the shape produced by normal discovery
so downstream code is happy on both paths.
- /api/spotify/search_tracks now returns image_url (parity with iTunes
and Deezer endpoints).
- All 7 discovery/update_match endpoints (youtube, tidal, deezer,
spotify-public, listenbrainz, beatport — 6 via the identical pattern
plus the listenbrainz variant with its None branch) now:
* use the helper to build spotify_data (album as dict + top-level
image_url)
* explicitly set result['wing_it_fallback'] = False
- selectDiscoveryFixTrack forwards track.image_url in the POST body and
mirrors the helper's output in the local state update so the UI
reflects the same shape immediately.
Audit: every downstream reader of spotify_data['album'] is already
dict-or-string tolerant (isinstance checks at lines 2073, 2158, 25844,
28938, 29011, etc.) so promoting album from string to dict is safe.
Normal discovery already sets it as a dict, so we're moving the fix-
modal path to match the existing majority case.
Full suite stays at 263 passed. Ruff clean.
The previous commit only fixed the INITIAL-render transform for
Spotify/Tidal/Deezer discovery rows. User confirmed [object Object]
still appeared after discovery completed — because there are two
additional update paths that do their own row-transform:
- WebSocket live-update handler (populates rows as discovery progresses)
- Poll-based fallback (same shape, runs when socket is disconnected)
Both had the same naive `.artists.join(', ')` on potentially-object
arrays. The poll and socket handlers exist for each of Spotify Public,
Tidal, and Deezer — six occurrences total across three platforms, all
with the same bug class. Now all use the object-aware map-and-join
pattern consistent with the initial-render fix.
Also fixes two more spots in openDiscoveryFixModal that the earlier
sweep missed:
- Missing spotify_public branch in the apply-selected-match handler:
after user picks a replacement track, state lookup failed, the local
row wouldn't refresh even though the backend had succeeded.
- Same artist-join bug in the same handler (track.artists from the
fix-modal search results could be array-of-objects).
Full suite stays at 263 passed. Ruff clean.
Three separate issues reported on the Spotify Playlist Discovery modal:
1. Fix button fails with "Track data not found"
openDiscoveryFixModal() branched on platform name to locate the discovery
state but had no case for 'spotify_public'. Row rendering passes that
platform value when the source is a Spotify public playlist, so state
lookup failed and the toast fired. Added the spotify_public branch —
state lives in youtubePlaylistStates alongside the other reused platforms.
2. Table header too transparent to read
.youtube-discovery-modal .discovery-table th used rgba(255,255,255,0.1)
as background (10% white) with white text, which lost contrast when the
orange progress bar or varied row content scrolled underneath. Switched
to near-solid dark rgba(17,17,20,0.96) with a brighter border-bottom
and z-index:5 so the sticky header stacks cleanly above table content.
3. "[object Object]" in the matched-artist column for Wing-It tracks
The Spotify Public Playlist row-transform joined result.spotify_data.artists
directly with .join(', '). Wing-It stub metadata (built server-side by
_build_discovery_wing_it_stub) returns artists as [{name: "..."}] —
array of objects. .join() stringified each object to "[object Object]".
Same pattern existed in three places in script.js; all now map objects
to .name and filter empties before joining. Graceful fallback to "-"
if the result is empty.
No existing tests touched. Full suite stays at 263 passed. Ruff clean.
Adds green/yellow header gradient on each service card showing whether the
user has filled in credentials, plus an expand-triggered verification layer
that surfaces working-or-not status inline.
Backend (web_server.py):
- SERVICE_CONFIG_REGISTRY mapping each of the 11 services in Connections to
its config requirements. Supports required-keys, always-green, any-of,
and custom-check semantics (Tidal uses token-file check, Qobuz accepts
either email/password OR cached auth token).
- _is_service_configured(service) — cheap config presence check, no APIs hit.
- GET /api/settings/config-status — returns {service: {configured}} for all
services in one call. Drives the page-load gradient.
- POST /api/settings/verify — takes {services: [...]}, runs
run_service_test per service, caches results 5 min in-memory, parallelizes
with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=3) to avoid self-rate-limiting. Query
param ?force=true busts cache.
- Added verify branches for iTunes, Deezer, Discogs, Qobuz, Hydrabase in
run_service_test (previously missing — these services couldn't be tested).
HTML (webui/index.html):
- data-service="..." on all 11 .stg-service containers so JS can map card
to backend service name.
CSS (webui/static/style.css):
- .status-configured gradient (subtle green, left-to-transparent fade)
- .status-missing gradient (yellow, same shape)
- Spinner badge in header for .status-checking state
- "Testing connection…" status line style inside panel body
- Red warning bar style for verify failures at top of expanded panel
- Brand dot now glows always (was only glowing when expanded); hover and
expand states intensify the glow progressively.
JS (webui/static/script.js):
- applyServiceStatusGradients() fetches config-status and applies
green/yellow class per card. Called on Connections tab activate + after
any settings save.
- _stgVerifyServices(services, {force}) — batch verify POST, tracks
in-flight state, renders spinners/status lines/warnings per service.
- toggleStgService() fires single-service verify when a card is expanded
(not on collapse). Skipped if a verify is already in flight for that
service.
- toggleAllServiceAccordions() fires one batched verify for all 11 services
when "Expand All" is clicked; skipped on "Collapse All".
- _stgRefreshAfterSave() — after settings save, refreshes gradient (cheap)
and re-verifies only the cards the user currently has expanded (so
freshly-edited credentials show their new verify result immediately,
without re-pinging every service).
Failure UI: top-of-panel red warning bar with the error message (e.g.
"Discogs token rejected (HTTP 401)", "Hydrabase not connected…"). Removed
automatically on next successful verify.
No existing tests changed. Full suite stays at 263 passed. Ruff clean.
- Move /api/artist/<artist_id>/image resolution into core.metadata_service.
- Resolve artist artwork through source priority, with explicit source/plugin overrides preserved.
- Keep Spotify call tracking inside the client layer to avoid double counting.
- Update similar-artist lazy loading to pass source context and add service coverage.
Artist detail pages ran check_album_exists_with_editions and check_track_exists
per discography item, each firing 5+ title variations times 3 artist variations
of fuzzy LIKE searches plus fallback broad-artist queries. For a 30-album artist
that was ~450 SQL round-trips just to answer "which of these do I own."
Hoist the artist's library albums and tracks into memory once per request via
two new helpers — get_candidate_albums_for_artist and get_candidate_tracks_for_albums —
and thread them through as optional candidate_albums / candidate_tracks params on
check_album_exists_with_editions, check_album_exists_with_completeness,
check_track_exists, check_album_completion, and check_single_completion.
Batched path scores the same _calculate_album_confidence / _calculate_track_confidence
against the in-memory list, preserving Smart Edition Matching and accuracy.
Title-only cross-artist fallback still fires for collaborative-album edge cases.
None on either param preserves legacy per-item SQL behavior for unaffected callers.
Applied to both /api/library/completion-stream (library artist detail page) and
iter_artist_discography_completion_events (Artists search page). Timing logs
added to confirm the pre-fetch cost and loop elapsed time.
On a Kendrick page load, per-album resolution drops from ~8 seconds to under
the 50ms streaming sleep floor. Observed ~100x SQL reduction on the happy path.
The reorganize endpoints built a template context without albumtype,
so ${albumtype} silently fell through to the engine's hardcoded "Album"
default — EPs, singles, and compilations all landed in Albums/.
Wires albumtype through from the albums table's record_type column
(populated by Spotify/Deezer/iTunes enrichment workers) with track-count
fallback when record_type is missing. New helper mirrors the download
pipeline's classification logic so reorganize produces the same folders
as initial placement. Also handles Deezer's raw 'compile' value which
the Deezer worker writes directly without mapping.
Shows standard SoulSync confirm dialog before bulk reorganize with
album count and template preview. Button now uses enhanced-sync-btn
class to match other artist header buttons.
New "Reorganize All" button in enhanced library artist header processes
all albums sequentially using the configured path template.
Version bumped to 2.35. Updated What's New modal with major features
(Discography Backfill, Multi-Artist Tagging, Enriched Downloads,
Template Delimiters, Reorganize All). Updated helper.js changelog
with all April 20 fixes and features.
Three new settings in Paths & Organization:
- Artist Tag Separator: choose comma, semicolon, or slash between artists
- Write multi-value ARTISTS tag: each artist as separate tag value for
Navidrome/Jellyfin multi-artist linking (FLAC ARTISTS key, ID3 TPE1
multi-value, MP4 multi-entry)
- Move featured artists to title: keep only primary artist in ARTIST
tag, append others as (feat. ...) in track title
All opt-in with defaults matching current behavior. Raw artist list
stored on metadata dict for tag writers to access without re-parsing.
The downloads page previously showed only title and source per download.
Now shows album artwork thumbnail, artist name, album name, source badge,
and quality badge (after post-processing). All metadata comes from the
existing matched_downloads_context — no extra API calls needed.
Falls back gracefully to title-only display when context metadata is
not available (e.g. orphaned Soulseek transfers with no task mapping).
New repair job that scans each artist in the library, fetches their
full discography from metadata sources, and creates findings for any
tracks not already owned. Users review findings and click "Add to
Wishlist" to queue missing tracks for download.
Respects content filters (live/remix/acoustic/instrumental/compilation)
and release type filters (album/EP/single). Opt-in, disabled by default,
runs weekly, processes up to 50 artists per run with rate limiting.
Users can now append literal text to template variables using curly
braces: ${albumtype}s produces "Albums", "Singles", "EPs". Without
braces, $albumtypes was rejected as an unknown variable by validation.
Both syntaxes work: $albumtype (plain) and ${albumtype} (delimited).
Bracket vars are resolved first to prevent partial matching conflicts.
Validation updated for album, single, and playlist templates.
AcoustID findings had no Fix button and bulk "Fix Selected" silently
defaulted to retag with no user choice. Now shows a 3-option prompt
(Retag / Re-download / Delete) for both individual and bulk fix,
matching the pattern used by orphan files and dead files.
- Move album-track resolution into metadata_service
- Use the configured provider order instead of Spotify-first branching
- Switch the frontend to the unified /api/album/<id>/tracks endpoint
- Add tests for source-priority lookup, DB resolution, and formatting
iTunes API can return collection metadata without song tracks for
region-restricted albums. The _lookup fallback only checked if results
was empty, so a collection-only response was accepted and cached as
{'items': []}. All future lookups returned the cached empty result.
Three fixes:
- get_album_tracks now checks for actual song items and tries fallback
storefronts when only collection metadata is returned
- Skip cached results with empty items array (prevents stale cache hits)
- Backend returns descriptive 404 error, frontend surfaces it in toast
The standalone mode handler ran every 10s on WebSocket status push and
set display='' on all sync buttons matching [id$="-sync-btn"], which
removed the display:none that kept undiscovered playlist sync buttons
hidden. Now tracks which buttons it hid via a data attribute and only
restores those, preserving the hidden state on undiscovered playlists.
Track ownership: check-tracks endpoint now filters by album context
when provided, preventing false "Found" when a track exists in a
different album by the same artist (e.g. Thriller on HIStory).
Wing-it wishlist: manual "Add to Wishlist" button now skips wing-it
fallback tracks (wing_it_ ID prefix), matching the behavior of
failed download and failed sync paths.
Debug info: watchlist/wishlist/automation counts were always 0
because get_db() doesn't exist — fixed to get_database().
The /api/artist/{id}/album/{id}/tracks endpoint was hardcoded to use
spotify_client and returned 401 if Spotify wasn't authenticated,
even when the user's primary source was Deezer or iTunes. Now uses
the configured primary metadata source via _get_metadata_fallback_client
with Spotify as fallback. Also gives a clearer error message when
no metadata source is available at all.
Adding a soundtrack or compilation album to wishlist was creating
separate wishlist entries per track artist (e.g. Persona 3 OST split
into ATLUS Sound Team/Lotus Juice/Azumi Takahashi). Now uses the
album-level artist when available so all tracks stay grouped as one
album. Per-track artist resolution only applies to playlists where
there's no album context.
Some metadata APIs return fewer or no results for all-lowercase
queries. Title-case the query when it's all lowercase before
sending to the API ("foreigner" → "Foreigner"). Mixed-case input
is left as-is. Confidence scoring still uses the original query.
Fixed 5 critical gaps in the download orchestrator where lidarr was
missing from client loops: get_all_downloads, get_download_status,
cancel_download fallback, clear_all_completed_downloads, and
cancel_all_downloads. Without these, lidarr downloads were invisible
to the UI, couldn't be cancelled, and accumulated in memory.
Also: error messages now visible in download list (appended to
filename on error state), removed "(Development)" label from UI.
- Stop passing in spotify_id as the id in the UI, use the actual db id instead
- Fixes an issue where albums for another artist would end up being returned for the actual searched artist
- Remove the redundant artist_id filtering code
- Fixes an issue where not-currently-owned albums would be filtered out from the results, even if they were successfully fetched from the configured metadata provider
M3U files were generated when the download batch completed but
before post-processing finished tagging and moving files. Paths
pointed to download locations instead of final library paths,
making every track show as missing. Now regenerates the M3U from
the backend batch completion handler after all post-processing
is guaranteed done, resolving real file paths from the library DB.
Skips overwrite if zero tracks resolve to avoid replacing a
partially-good M3U with an all-missing one.
The retag fix for AcoustID mismatches was only updating the DB
record (title, artist_id) without writing corrected tags to the
actual audio file. Users would click Fix, the finding disappeared,
but the file on disk stayed unchanged. Now writes title and artist
tags to the file via Mutagen after the DB update.
Also fixed artist INSERT missing server_source when creating a new
artist during retag — now uses the active media server value.
Auto-wishlist albums cycle was passing is_album=True to
_get_batch_max_concurrent which returns 1 for soulseek mode.
This restriction is for folder-based album grabs from a single
peer, not individual track downloads. Wishlist always does
single-track downloads regardless of cycle, so it should use
the user's configured concurrency setting.
_adlFetch() fetches /api/downloads/all?limit=300 then _adlUpdateBadge()
was counting active statuses from that truncated array, overwriting
the real server-side count maintained by WebSocket. Removed the
badge update from _adlFetch — the WebSocket status push already
keeps it accurate.
Fix modal results: sort standard album versions above live, remix,
cover, soundtrack, remaster, and deluxe variants so users see the
original studio track first instead of obscure versions.
Plex Find & Add: tracks were always appended to the end of the
playlist because addItems ignores position. Now moves the track
to the correct slot after adding via moveItem.
Discovery Fix modal search results now sort standard album versions
above live recordings, remixes, covers, soundtracks, remasters,
deluxe editions, and other variants. Fixes cases where searching
"Mother Danzig" returned a live version first, or "Even Flow Pearl
Jam" returned a soundtrack instead of the original from Ten.
Unmatch: found tracks in playlist discovery now have a red X button
to remove bad matches. Clears match data, sets back to Not Found,
persists in DB for mirrored playlists, and respects user choice on
re-discovery runs (won't re-match automatically).
Video naming: new path template in Settings with $artist, $title,
$artistletter, $year variables. Default unchanged ($artist/$title-video)
so existing Plex setups aren't affected.
slskd logs: Clean Search History automation skips when Soulseek is
not the active download source, eliminating connection error spam.
Video naming: new path template in Settings → Paths & Organization
with $artist, $artistletter, $title, $year variables. Default
unchanged ($artist/$title-video → Artist/Title-video.mp4) so
existing Plex setups aren't affected. Users can remove the -video
suffix or reorganize however they like.
slskd logs: the Clean Search History automation now skips when
Soulseek is not the active download source, eliminating noisy
connection error logs for users who don't use Soulseek.
When playlist discovery fails to match a track on any metadata API,
instead of marking it "Not Found" and excluding it from downloads,
automatically build stub metadata from the raw source title/artist
and include it in the download queue. Soulseek searches with the
raw data, post-processing enhances whatever it can find.
All 7 discovery workers updated: YouTube, ListenBrainz, Tidal,
Deezer, Spotify Public, Beatport, and automated mirrored playlists.
Amber "Wing It" badge distinguishes stubs from real API matches.
Fix button still available so users can manually find a proper match.
Wing It stubs persist in DB for mirrored playlists and are
re-attempted on future discovery runs. Failed wing-it downloads
skip wishlist per-track (checked by wing_it_ ID prefix) so real
matched failures in the same batch still go to wishlist normally.
soul_id.startsWith() threw TypeError for non-string values, crashing
the entire card rendering pipeline. Letter-specific filters worked
because the problematic artist wasn't in those filtered results.
Added String() wrapper on all 3 soul_id.startsWith calls and a
try-catch around individual card rendering so one bad card can't
take down the whole page.
- Flask catch-all route serves index.html for client-side paths, excluding api/static/auth/callback/status prefixes.- navigateToPage pushes history state so URL reflects current page.- popstate listener handles browser back/forward without reloading.- Initial load reads window.location to restore the page after refresh or direct link.- artist-detail and playlist-explorer fall back to parent pages since they need runtime context.
- move artist-detail discography resolution onto the shared source-priority metadata service
- keep the variant dedup helper in the UI-facing adapter
- pass the chosen source through completion checks
- add coverage for the new adapter and dedup behavior
Move completion checks into metadata_service and make them follow the configured metadata source priority.
Drop the old test-mode path, remove the web_server wrapper indirection, and keep artist inference on explicit release metadata instead of guessing from a track search.
Add coverage for the source-priority completion behavior and the safer artist-name handling.
- Fix level filter showing nothing: now uses heuristic classification
for print() output (error/traceback/failed→ERROR, warn→WARNING, etc.)
in addition to exact logger format matching
- Speed up WebSocket updates from 2s to 0.5s polling
- Add search box with 300ms debounce — filters both initial load and live
- Use DocumentFragment for batch DOM appends (performance)
- Increase line cap from 1000 to 2000
- Backend search parameter support in /api/logs/tail
Terminal-style real-time log viewer with:
- Log file selector (app, post-processing, acoustid, source reuse)
- Color-coded log levels (DEBUG gray, INFO blue, WARNING yellow, ERROR red)
- Level filter buttons (All/Debug/Info/Warn/Error)
- Auto-scroll with toggle, copy and clear buttons
- Live updates via WebSocket (2s polling, pushes new lines)
- Initial load fetches last 200 lines via REST API
- 1000-line display cap with oldest lines trimmed
Also fixes Advanced tab settings (Discovery Pool, Security, etc.) being
hidden inside collapsed Library Preferences section body — misplaced
closing div caused them to be invisible.
The close button and backdrop click handlers were only attached when
the Tools page was visited (initializeToolHelpButtons). Automation
builder '?' buttons open the same modal but the close handlers were
never set up. Added inline onclick handlers to the modal HTML and a
global Escape key listener so closing works from any page.
Your Albums cards on the Discover page were using the YouTube/playlist
modal (openDownloadMissingModalForYouTube) instead of the album modal
(openDownloadMissingModalForArtistAlbum). Now displays with proper
album hero section and uses album download context for file organization.
New toggle in Settings → Library → Post-Processing: "Apply ReplayGain
tags after download". When enabled, analyzes loudness via ffmpeg's
ebur128 filter and writes track-level ReplayGain gain/peak tags.
Runs after metadata tagging but before lossy copy so both files get
the tags. Off by default — adds a few seconds per track.
Applied to both album and playlist/single download paths.
New core/genre_filter.py with ~180 curated default genres. When strict
mode is enabled in Settings → Library Preferences → Genre Whitelist,
only whitelisted genres pass through during enrichment. Junk tags from
Last.fm (artist names, radio shows, playlist names) are silently dropped.
Applied at all 10 genre write points: Spotify, Last.fm, AudioDB, Deezer,
Discogs, iTunes, Qobuz enrichment workers + post-processing genre merge
+ initial download artist/album creation.
Strict mode is OFF by default — zero behavior change for existing users.
First enable auto-populates the whitelist with defaults. Users can add,
remove, search, and reset genres via the Settings UI.
When clicking a track in enhanced or global search, the download modal
correctly showed SINGLE but the download used is_album_download=true,
causing the file to be organized under the album path template instead
of the singles template. Now enhanced_search_track_ and gsearch_track_
prefixes pass album metadata for tagging but set is_album_download=false.
The source detection chain for playlist hero sections didn't handle
the 'spotify:liked-songs' playlist ID prefix, falling through to the
default 'YouTube' label. Added 'spotify:' prefix check.
