Real-world wishlist case the original c3b88e69 design missed: user with
26 missing tracks from 26 different albums. Each item used to promote
to its own album-bundle sub-batch (``min_tracks_per_album=1``), which
downloaded the ENTIRE album (5-42 files) to claim one track. Confirmed
in app.log:
- "Licensed To Ill" downloaded 3 times across cycles (3-4 files each)
- "The Understanding" 17 files for 1 wishlist track
- "Alright, Still" 42 files for 1 wishlist track
- ~85% wasted bandwidth, slskd hammered with 26 concurrent searches
PR 1 of a 4-PR fix series — see commit body footer for the other PRs.
Default ``min_tracks_per_album`` 1 → 2. Single-track wishlist items
fall to ``residual_tracks`` → classic per-track batch (already works,
already efficient). Album-bundle kept for the case it was designed
for: user has 2+ tracks missing from the same album.
Override via the new ``wishlist.album_bundle_min_tracks`` config key:
- 1 = previous behaviour (bundle every item)
- 2 = new default
- 3+ = stricter, for users who want bundle only on bigger gaps
Helper ``_resolve_album_bundle_threshold`` lives in
``core/wishlist/processing.py``. Defensive shape mirrors the existing
config-driven knobs (``get_poll_interval`` / ``get_transient_miss_threshold``):
non-numeric, non-positive, or config-manager-raise all fall back to
the safe default. Three test cases pin the fallback chain.
Both wishlist entry points wired through the same helper:
- ``process_wishlist_automatically`` (auto cycle, line 812)
- ``start_manual_wishlist_download_batch`` (manual run, line 539)
Tests:
- ``tests/wishlist/test_album_grouping.py`` — old ``test_default_threshold_promotes_solo_albums`` flipped to ``test_default_threshold_demotes_solo_albums`` with explanatory docstring naming the real-world cause. New ``test_default_threshold_promotes_multi_track_albums`` pins the 2+ promotion. New ``test_explicit_threshold_one_restores_solo_promotion`` pins that the kwarg still works for opt-back-in.
- ``tests/wishlist/test_processing.py`` — 3 new tests for ``_resolve_album_bundle_threshold``: default-when-config-missing, honors-config-override, falls-back-on-garbage.
- ``tests/wishlist/test_automation.py`` — ``test_wishlist_albums_cycle_splits_into_per_album_batches`` updated to use 2+ tracks per album (5 tracks across 2 albums instead of 3 across 2 with 1 solo). ``test_wishlist_albums_cycle_residual_for_orphan_tracks`` updated to include 2 tracks from Album One so it still promotes.
- ``tests/wishlist/test_manual_download.py`` — same shape update for the manual path test.
- ``tests/wishlist/test_album_grouping.py:test_multiple_albums_emit_separate_groups`` updated to reflect new default (alb1 with 2 tracks promotes, alb2 with 1 track goes residual).
- ``tests/wishlist/test_album_grouping.py:test_nested_track_data_payloads_normalized`` pinned with explicit ``min_tracks_per_album=1`` so the test stays focused on payload-shape parsing, not the threshold rule.
114 wishlist tests pass; 866 across wishlist + automation + downloads +
album_bundle + album_bundle_dispatch suites still green. Ruff clean.
Sibling PRs queued in TaskCreate:
- PR 2 — investigate post-process staging-match miss (the second-order
bug that causes the same album to redownload every cycle when the
staging step doesn't claim the requested track).
- PR 3 — fix sibling-completion gate that fires on first sibling
instead of last (log evidence: run a4945c88 finalized 1/26 batches).
- PR 4 — UI distinguish Queued from Analyzing for batches waiting
on the executor (23/26 batches sit at "Analyzing..." while really
queued at max_workers=3).
