Auto-wishlist's "albums" cycle used to dump every missing album
track into one batch and run per-track Soulseek / Prowlarr searches
for each (~50 searches for a typical scan). The album-bundle
dispatch (introduced in 2.5.9 for explicit album downloads) was
gated on ``is_album_download=True`` + populated
``album_context``/``artist_context``, none of which the wishlist
batch ever set — so wishlist runs always took the per-track flow
even when 12 missing tracks all belonged to the same album.
Fix: split wishlist albums-cycle tracks into per-album sub-batches
at submission time. Each sub-batch carries its own album context,
trips the existing dispatch gate, and engages one slskd / torrent
/ usenet album-bundle search per album. Tracks the helper can't
group (no album metadata, no artist) fall through to a residual
per-track batch.
- New ``core/wishlist/album_grouping.py``:
``group_wishlist_tracks_by_album(tracks)`` returns
``WishlistGroupingResult(album_groups, residual_tracks)``.
Pure function — extracts album_id (or name-normalized fallback)
+ primary artist + album context from each track's nested
spotify_data, buckets, and threshold-promotes. Independent of
runtime state so it can be unit-tested without the wishlist
executor.
- ``core/wishlist/processing.py``: when ``current_cycle ==
'albums'``, run the grouping helper, submit one batch per album
with ``is_album_download=True`` + the group's album/artist
context, then a single residual batch for orphans. Singles
cycle path unchanged.
- 9 new tests in ``test_album_grouping.py`` pin the bucketing
contract (empty / single album / multi album / orphan / threshold
/ nested payloads / no-id fallback / no artist).
- 2 new tests in ``test_automation.py`` exercise the per-album
split end-to-end through ``process_wishlist_automatically``:
multi-album batch → two sub-batches each with album context;
mixed orphan + real album → one bundle batch + one residual.
1099 tests across wishlist + imports + downloads + automation +
playlist-sources + staging-provenance + track-number-repair
suites green. WHATS_NEW entry added under 2.6.3.
Now when an auto-wishlist scan finds 12 missing tracks from
Ryoto's "Cha-La Head-Cha-La", it runs ONE slskd / Prowlarr
album-bundle search for the release instead of 12 per-track
searches.
