Automatically mirrors every parsed playlist (Spotify, Tidal, YouTube, Beatport) to a local database so they're always accessible — even if a service subscription lapses or the browser closes.
- New "Mirrored" tab on the Sync page with source-branded cards showing discovery/download status
- Auto-mirrors on successful parse (upsert — re-parsing updates the existing mirror, no duplicates)
- Click any mirrored playlist to browse its full track list, then run it through the discovery pipeline
- Cards dynamically reflect live state: Discovering → Discovered → Downloading → Downloaded
- Download modal rehydrates after page refresh — click a "Downloading..." card to resume viewing progress
- All phase transitions (start, complete, cancel, error, modal close) keep card and backend state in sync
- Profile-scoped via profile_id, consistent with other features
Allow multiple users to share a single SoulSync instance with isolated personal data. Each profile gets its own watchlist, wishlist, discovery pool, similar artists, and bubble snapshots — while sharing the same music library, database, and service credentials.
- Netflix-style profile picker on startup when multiple profiles exist
- Optional PIN protection per profile; admin PIN required when >1 profiles
- Admin-only profile management (create, edit, rename, delete)
- Profile avatar images via URL with colored-initial fallback
- Zero-downtime SQLite migration — all existing data maps to auto-created
admin profile
- Single-user installs see no changes — profile system is invisible until
a second profile is created
- WebSocket count emitters scoped to profile rooms (watchlist/wishlist)
- Background scanners (watchlist, wishlist, discovery) iterate all profiles
Migrates 38 HTTP polling loops to WebSocket push events across 6 phases: service status, dashboard stats, enrichment workers, tool progress, sync/discovery progress, and scan status. All original HTTP polling is preserved as automatic fallback — if WebSocket is unavailable or disconnects, the app seamlessly reverts to its previous behavior. Includes 162 tests verifying event delivery, data shape, and HTTP parity. Also fixes a copy-paste bug in Beatport sync error cleanup.
Introduce batch removal support for wishlist tracks. Adds a new POST endpoint /api/wishlist/remove-batch that validates input, removes multiple tracks via the wishlist service, logs the result and returns a removed count. Updates the frontend (webui/static/script.js) to provide per-track and per-album checkboxes, a Select All button, a batch action bar with selection count and a Remove Selected action (with confirmation), and logic to refresh the view and wishlist count after removal. Styles (webui/static/style.css) are extended to support unified watchlist/wishlist batch bars, checkbox styling, and a Select All button. Preserves existing single-item removal behavior.
Add server endpoint to trigger a manual download for a user-selected candidate from the candidates modal (/api/downloads/task/<id>/download-candidate). The endpoint validates input, resets task and batch state (status, error, used_sources, active_count, permanently_failed_tracks), reconstructs Track/TrackResult objects and dispatches a background download attempt via missing_download_executor. Update the frontend candidates modal to show a download button per candidate, wire it to POST the candidate to the new API, and add CSS for table layout and download button styling. Enables restarting failed/not_found tasks by choosing a specific source without blocking the UI.
Expose cached search results for failed downloads and add a UI to review them. Implements a new GET /api/downloads/task/<task_id>/candidates endpoint that serializes any cached_candidates and track_info for a task and returns an error message and candidate count. The download worker now collects top raw search results (all_raw_results) and stores them in download_tasks[task_id]['cached_candidates'] when no match is found so users can inspect what Soulseek returned. The batch status payload includes has_candidates to mark "not_found" tasks as reviewable. On the frontend, new script functions (_ensureCandidatesClickListener, showCandidatesModal, _renderCandidatesModal, closeCandidatesModal) fetch and render a modal table of candidates; existing status rendering is updated to attach click handlers and error tooltips. Styles for the modal and a clickable .has-candidates state are added to style.css.
Introduce interactive discography filters on the artist detail page. Adds filter UI markup (category, content, ownership) in index.html and styles in style.css. Implements filter state, initialization, reset and apply logic in script.js; tags release cards with data attributes (live/compilation/featured) using regex heuristics, updates visibility and per-section owned/missing counts, and re-applies filters when releases are updated. Integrates filter setup into page init and resets filters when loading artist data.
Introduce a global watchlist override feature and UI to control release/content filters across all watchlist artists. Backend: add /api/watchlist/global-config (GET/POST) for reading/updating global settings, validation to require at least one release type when override is enabled, and _apply_watchlist_global_overrides() to apply settings to WatchlistArtist objects. Scanners (manual and automatic) now call _apply_watchlist_global_overrides() and perform additional checks (_should_include_release, _should_include_track) to skip releases/tracks according to config. Frontend: add a Global Watchlist Settings modal, controls (release types, content filters, include-all shortcut), save/validation logic, banners/notices when global override is active, and integration into the watchlist modal and per-artist config. Styles: add supporting CSS for the modal and banners. Small cleanup/whitespace adjustments included.
Add Hydrabase support as an optional/dev metadata source and comparison tool.
- Add core/hydrabase_client.py: synchronous Hydrabase WebSocket client that normalizes results to Track/Artist/Album types and exposes raw access.
- Update config/settings.py: add hydrabase settings (url, api_key, auto_connect) and getter.
- Update web_server.py: integrate HydrabaseClient, initialize client alongside the existing HydrabaseWorker, add auto-reconnect using saved config, persist credentials on connect/disconnect, add endpoints for status and stored comparisons, background comparison runner (Hydrabase vs Spotify vs iTunes), and adapt multiple search endpoints to optionally use Hydrabase as the primary metadata source with fallbacks.
- Update web UI (webui/index.html, webui/static/script.js, webui/static/style.css): add network stats and source comparison UI, pre-fill saved credentials, show peer count, load/display comparisons, update disconnect behavior to disable dev mode, and add Hydrabase badge styling.
Behavioral notes: when dev mode + Hydrabase are active, searches can be served from Hydrabase and comparisons to Spotify/iTunes are run in background; when Hydrabase fails the code falls back to Spotify/iTunes. Saved Hydrabase credentials are persisted for auto-reconnect; disconnect disables dev mode and auto_connect.
Files touched: config/settings.py, core/hydrabase_client.py, web_server.py, webui/index.html, webui/static/script.js, webui/static/style.css.
Introduce a new Retag tool to track and re-tag previously downloaded albums/singles. Changes include:
- Database: add migration hook and create retag_groups and retag_tracks tables, indexes, and many helper methods (add/find/update/delete groups & tracks, stats, trimming).
- Backend (web_server): capture completed album/single downloads into the retag tables, implement retag execution logic (_execute_retag) to fetch album metadata, match tracks, update tags, move files, download cover art, and update DB. Add thread-safe globals, executor, and REST endpoints for stats, listing groups, group tracks, album search, execute, status, and delete.
- Frontend (webui): add Retag Tool card, modals, search UI, JS to list groups/tracks, search albums, start retag operations, poll status, and update UI; include help content. Add CSS for modals and components.
The migration is invoked during DB init to ensure existing installations create the new tables. The tool caps stored groups (default 100) and avoids duplicate track entries.
Add per-track selection checkboxes, select-all control and a selection count to download modals (missing/YouTube/Tidal/artist-album). Implement JS helpers (toggleAllTrackSelections, updateTrackSelectionCount) to manage checkbox state, row dimming, button disabling, and to filter/stamp selected tracks with _original_index before sending to the backend. Update start/add-to-wishlist flows to use only selectedTracks and disable controls once analysis starts. Backend _run_full_missing_tracks_process now reads _original_index to preserve original table indices in analysis results. CSS updates (mobile.css and style.css) add styling for checkbox columns, responsive hiding logic for headers/columns, selection visuals (.track-deselected), and small layout/width tweaks.
Introduce deferred album repair scanning and robust tracklist resolution plus UI/presentation tweaks.
- core/repair_worker.py: Add lazy MusicBrainz and AudioDB client accessors, per-batch folder queues, and register_folder/process_batch to defer folder scans until a batch completes. Implement cascading tracklist resolution (_resolve_album_tracklist) using Spotify/iTunes IDs, Spotify track→album lookup, album search, MusicBrainz release lookup, and AudioDB→MusicBrainz fallback. Add helpers to read Spotify track IDs, MusicBrainz album IDs, album/artist tags from files, MB/AudioDB fetchers, placeholder-ID filtering, and rename associated .lrc files when renaming audio files. Cache/locking and background-threaded scanning included. Improves resilience to missing/placeholder IDs and avoids circular imports.
- web_server.py: Register album folders for repair in post-processing and trigger repair_worker.process_batch when batches complete (multiple completion paths) so scans run after downloads finish.
- webui/static/script.js: Reduce unnecessary background work by skipping many fetches when the tab is hidden, and refresh dashboard-specific data on visibility change to ensure UI updates after OAuth or tab switch.
- webui/static/style.css: Replace glassmorphic backdrop-filters with opaque dark gradients for sidebar and main content to improve GPU rendering and visual consistency.
Overall: Adds reliable post-download album repair scanning using multiple metadata sources and reduces unnecessary client polling and heavy CSS effects for better performance and robustness.
Prevent accidental misconfiguration of Docker container-internal paths
(Slskd Download Dir, Matched Transfer Dir, Import Staging Dir) by making
them read-only by default.
Repurposes the non-functional Browse button into a per-field Unlock/Lock
toggle. Adds a warning blurb below the Download Settings header so users
understand these are container paths, not host paths.
Add full-featured SpotifyWorker and iTunesWorker background workers to enrich artists, albums, and tracks with external metadata using batch cascading searches, fuzzy name matching, ID validation, and DB backfills. Update RepairWorker to re-read the transfer path from the database each scan, resolve host paths when running in Docker, and trigger immediate rescans when the transfer path changes; remove the static config_manager dependency. Also include supporting changes to the database layer and web UI/server (stats, controls, and styles) to integrate the new workers and reflect updated worker status.
Introduce a RepairWorker to scan the transfer folder and automatically detect/repair broken album track numbers (e.g. the "all tracks = 01" bug). The worker uses mutagen to read/write tags, fuzzy-matches titles against an album tracklist (Spotify/iTunes via a SpotifyClient), updates filenames and the tracks DB file_path when renamed, and caches album tracklists. It also adds DB schema support (repair_status, repair_last_checked, and an index).
Integrates the worker into the web server: initializes and starts the worker, and exposes /api/repair/status, /api/repair/pause and /api/repair/resume endpoints. Adds UI elements (button, tooltip), client-side JS to poll and control the worker, CSS for visuals/animations, and a new image asset (whisoul.png).
Introduce an "Active Downloads" section to the dashboard and wire up client-side plumbing to populate and update it. Adds escapeForInlineJs to safely embed values into inline JS attributes and replaces several inline onclick usages (search/genre/listenbrainz/artist buttons) to prevent quoting issues. Implements updateDashboardDownloads, createDashboardDiscoverBubble, and integrates dashboard updates into artist/search/discover flows (including register/discover download persistence and monitor hooks). Adds dashboard-specific CSS for discover/artist bubbles and minor style fixes (artist image sizing, keyframe formatting) plus a mobile CSS tweak for artist images.
Introduce a Hydrabase P2P mirror worker and integrate it into the web UI and server flows. Adds core/hydrabase_worker.py: a background thread with a capped queue (1000), enqueue API, rate limiting, basic stats (sent/dropped/errors), and logic to send JSON requests over a provided WebSocket (responses received and discarded). Integrates the worker into web_server.py (import, startup init, status/pause/resume endpoints, and enqueues queries from multiple search endpoints when dev mode is enabled). Adds UI elements, JavaScript polling/toggle logic, and CSS styling for a Hydrabase status button in webui (index.html, static/script.js, static/style.css) to display and control worker state.
Introduce a developer-only Hydrabase testing UI and backend WebSocket integration. Adds a simple dev-mode toggle (password 'hydratest') and new API endpoints (/api/dev-mode, /api/hydrabase/connect, /api/hydrabase/disconnect, /api/hydrabase/status, /api/hydrabase/send) that use websocket-client to connect/send raw JSON to a Hydrabase instance. Frontend changes include a Hydrabase nav/page, payload editors, response panel, dev-mode UI in Settings, associated JS handlers, CSS styling, and an icon asset. Also add websocket-client to requirements.
Add Deezer as a third metadata enrichment source. Enriches tracks with BPM and explicit flags, albums with
record labels, explicit flags, and type classification (album/single/EP), and backfills artwork and genres across
all entities. Includes background worker with priority queue, rate-limited API client, database migration, server
endpoints, and UI button with purple-themed status tooltip.
Integrated TheAudioDB as a metadata enrichment source. A background worker scans the library in priority order (artists → albums → tracks), matching entities via fuzzy name comparison and storing style, mood, and AudioDB IDs. Includes rate limiting, 30-day retry for not-found items, and a UI tooltip showing phase-based scan progress.
Add a UI button to disconnect Spotify and fall back to iTunes/Apple Music without restarting. Cache is_spotify_authenticated() with a 60s TTL to reduce redundant API calls (~46 call sites were each
triggering a live sp.current_user() call). Fix status endpoint calling the auth check twice per poll,
and ensure both OAuth callback handlers (port 8008 Flask route and port 8888 dedicated server)
invalidate the status cache so the UI updates immediately after authentication.
When a download fails in the Download Missing Tracks modal, hovering over the "Failed" status now shows a tooltip explaining why. The backend already tracked error_message on tasks internally but never sent it to the frontend. This surfaces those reasons and enriches them with detailed context — search diagnostics break down what happened per query (no results, filtered out, search error), retry failures include source counts and likely cause, and timeout/stuck messages name the state and duration. The tooltip uses a fixed-position popup to avoid clipping by the modal's scroll container, with scroll and visibility-aware dismissal.
When clicking a partially-complete album on the Library page, the wishlist modal now shows which tracks are owned (dimmed with checkmark) and which are missing (orange border). Ownership data lazy-loads after the modal opens to avoid blocking the UI, using a batch DB query for speed. Also fixes albums like DAMN. showing "14/15" when all available tracks are owned — the frontend now trusts the backend's "completed" status instead of doing raw track count math against potentially inaccurate Spotify metadata.
Replace blocking DB matching in the Library artist detail view with a two-phase render pattern. The page now renders album cards instantly from Spotify/Itunes data , then streams per-release ownership results via SSE that update cards one-by-one.
Added an Import feature that lets users process local audio files through the existing post-processing pipeline (metadata enrichment, cover art, lyrics, library organization). Files are placed in a configurable Staging folder and imported via two modes: Album mode (search/match files to a Spotify tracklist) and Singles mode (select individual files for processing). Includes auto-suggested albums based on staging folder contents and real-time per-track progress tracking.
MusicBrainz library enrichment with real-time

Introduces a toggle button in the downloads header to show or hide the download manager side panel. The toggle state is persisted in localStorage, and responsive styles are added for better usability on small screens. Updates HTML structure, JavaScript initialization, and CSS for the new toggle functionality and improved mobile experience.
Increases Spotify search result limits for artists and albums. Adds dynamic glow effects to artist, album, and track cards in the UI using image-based colors. Significantly upgrades the CSS for enhanced dropdowns, cards, and lists with a premium, vibrant, and responsive design.
Introduces a backend API endpoint and frontend logic to allow users to stream individual tracks directly from enhanced search results. Updates the UI to include a play button for each track, adjusts the search mode toggle to default to enhanced search, and refines related styles for improved user experience.
Implements a persistent search bubble system for tracking album and track downloads in enhanced search. Adds backend API endpoints for saving and hydrating search bubble snapshots, frontend state management for search download bubbles, UI for displaying and managing active/completed downloads, and associated styles for search bubble cards. This enables users to resume and manage search downloads across page refreshes.
Increased the number of tracks returned by enhanced search from 10 to 20. Updated CSS for enhanced search sections and artist cards to improve visual appearance, spacing, and responsiveness, including larger artist images, new backgrounds, and better layout for various screen sizes.
Implements an enhanced search endpoint in the backend that unifies Spotify and local database results, returning categorized artists, albums, and tracks. Updates the frontend with a new dropdown overlay for live search, debounced input, categorized result rendering, and direct integration with the main results area for album/track selection. Adds new CSS for the dropdown and result cards, and updates the Track dataclass to include image URLs for richer UI display.
Introduces a search mode toggle in the downloads UI, allowing users to switch between basic and enhanced search modes. Adds new HTML structure, JavaScript logic, and CSS styles for the enhanced search interface (currently placeholder functionality). In the backend, implements a retry system for file discovery after download completion to handle race conditions, with cleanup of stale retry attempts to prevent memory leaks.
Ensures the loading overlay is always hidden when opening the wishlist modal, including on error or early return. Updates CSS to allow vertical scrolling in the modal while keeping horizontal overflow hidden.
Introduces a dynamic mosaic grid background with scrolling album covers for the wishlist category cards in the overview modal. Adds supporting JavaScript functions to extract unique cover images and generate the mosaic HTML, and updates CSS to style and animate the mosaic, including fallbacks and hover effects for improved visual appeal.
Introduces backend API endpoints to remove individual tracks or all tracks from an album in the wishlist. Updates the frontend to display delete buttons for tracks and albums, with confirmation modals before removal, and styles these new UI elements for clarity and usability.
Implements manual track matching (discovery fix modal) for YouTube, Tidal, and Beatport platforms, allowing users to search and select Spotify tracks for unmatched results. Adds backend endpoints and frontend logic for updating matches, improves conversion of discovery results for sync/download, and updates Dockerfile/entrypoint for dynamic PUID/PGID/UMASK support. Includes a new DOCKER_PERMISSIONS.md guide.
Introduces a 'Beatport Top 100' button to each genre page, allowing users to fetch and view the top 100 tracks for a selected genre. Includes new event handling logic in script.js and corresponding styles in style.css for the button and its container.
Removed genre and year metadata from Beatport slider track cards in script.js. Increased slider height and track info max-width in style.css to improve layout and visual presentation.
Enhanced glassmorphic effects across dashboard, service, stat, and tool cards for improved visual consistency. Updated gradients, border radii, shadow effects, and hover states to match modal styling. Adjusted padding, font sizes, and section spacing for a more polished and premium UI appearance.
Introduces a global activity feed system with API endpoints for recent activities and toasts, and integrates activity tracking for key backend events (downloads, syncs, database updates, etc.). Updates the dashboard frontend to periodically fetch and display activity feed items and show toasts for recent actions. Improves error logging and reduces noise for expected 404s in Soulseek client. Adds related CSS for activity feed separators.
Introduces a watchlist system for tracking artists, including backend API endpoints for managing the watchlist and scanning for new releases. Updates the frontend to allow users to add/remove artists to/from the watchlist from both artist cards and detail pages, view and scan their watchlist via a modal, and see real-time scan progress. Adds related styles for watchlist UI components.
Added debounced updates for the artist downloads section to prevent rapid UI refreshes. Enhanced debug logging and error handling for download status changes and bulk completion. Introduced a utility to force refresh all artist download statuses. Updated CSS for better spacing and overflow handling in artist bubble containers and images.
