Feedback from the live dry-run: the job was pinning whichever source best fit
the files regardless of which source it was, which was surprising — users
expect it to respect their active metadata source. Made it a per-job setting
instead of a baked-in policy.
source_selection (default 'active_preferred'):
- active_preferred — use the active/primary metadata source's release when the
album has an ID for it AND it clears the score floor; otherwise fall back to
the best-fit among the other sources. Respects the configured source but
self-heals when that link is clearly broken (below floor / no ID).
- active_only — only ever the active source; never considers others.
- best_fit — previous behavior: whichever source matches the files best.
resolve_canonical_for_album gains mode + primary_source; the orchestration
threads the primary source through; the job reads source_selection from its
settings. Note: active_preferred respects the active source as long as it clears
the floor, so it will NOT override a deluxe-vs-standard mismatch on the primary
(#767-Bug2) — that's what best_fit is for; the choice is now the user's.
Tests: per-mode coverage in test_canonical_resolver.py (active_preferred uses
primary when it fits, falls back when primary is below floor, keeps primary even
when another fits better; active_only pins primary / never falls back; best_fit
unchanged), orchestration default-mode test, and the setting default. 39
canonical tests pass.
The populate trigger that turns the (until now dormant) feature on. Until a user
enables and runs this job, no album has a canonical -> both read sides (Stages
3-4) fall back -> zero behavior change. So the whole feature ships safely off.
- core/repair_jobs/canonical_version_resolve.py — "Resolve Canonical Album
Versions". Iterates the active server's albums, skips ones already pinned, and
calls the tested resolve_and_store_canonical_for_album per album. Opt-in
(default_enabled=False) and dry-run-by-default: resolving compares an album's
candidate releases across sources (metadata-source API calls, once per album),
so it's deliberately user-triggered. Dry run reports a finding per album it
would pin; live mode stores. Registered in _JOB_MODULES.
- core/metadata/canonical_resolver.py — resolve_and_store gains store=True; the
job's dry run passes store=False to resolve-without-writing.
Tests: tests/test_canonical_version_job.py (6) — registered, opt-in + dry-run
defaults, live resolves+stores (auto_fixed), dry run creates findings without
persisting, already-pinned albums skipped. Registry loads all 19 jobs cleanly.
145 tests across the full feature + reorganize/track-repair/DB regression pass.
