# CLAUDE.md
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
## Project Overview
This is a new music management application project that aims to create a Spotify-like desktop application with Python. The project is in its initial planning phase with only a project requirements document (`project.txt`) currently present.
## Project Requirements
The application will be a music management tool that:
- Connects to Spotify API and Plex Media Server
- Features an elegant, animated, vibrant theme similar to Spotify's desktop/web app
- Synchronizes Spotify playlists to Plex using robust matching systems
- Integrates with Soulseek for downloading FLAC/high-quality audio files
- Updates music metadata on Plex based on Spotify metadata including album art
- Provides core functionality that feels and looks like Spotify
## Configuration
The application will use a central `config.json` file to store:
- Spotify API credentials and login information
- Plex Media Server connection details
- Other connected service configurations
## Development Status
**Current State**: Active development of a PyQt6-based desktop application with functional UI and core integrations.
**Completed Features**:
- ✅ PyQt6 GUI framework with Spotify-inspired dark theme
- ✅ Modular architecture with separate service clients (Spotify, Plex, Soulseek)
- ✅ Modern sidebar navigation with animated buttons and status indicators
- ✅ Media player sidebar with scrolling text animation for long titles
- ✅ Search functionality with real-time filtering (Albums vs Singles)
- ✅ Audio streaming and playback from Soulseek search results
- ✅ Service status monitoring and connection indicators
- ✅ Configuration management system
- ✅ Download progress tracking for both singles and albums
- ✅ Enhanced filename matching system preventing false positives
- ✅ Complete download queue management system with functional buttons
- ✅ Compact, practical download item UI design
- ✅ Album track button state management and cancellation handling
- ✅ Clear completed downloads functionality with backend integration
**Recently Completed Work**:
### ✅ Download Manager Complete Redesign (COMPLETED)
