#616 filed three MCP/API paging traps. Two were real; one was not, and one was
already half-fixed on main. Verified each against the code before changing it.
REAL — pageNum documented as 1-based. `ToolCatalog.Page()` described pageNum as
"1-based page number" while every paged controller defaults it to 0, floors it
with `Math.Max(0, pageNum)`, and skips `PageNum * PageSize`. A caller that
trusted the description started at page 1 and silently lost the first page: no
error, just a short set that reads as data loss rather than an off-by-one (it
cost #487 a verification pass). Fixed in the description rather than by making
the MCP layer 1-based: /api/v1 is additive-only post-freeze, 0-based is
load-bearing in a dozen controllers and the SPA, and a 1-based wrapper over a
0-based API would make the same parameter name mean two different things on two
surfaces a reader reads together.
NOT REAL — "pageSize caps the page but the offset honors the requested value".
Not reproducible on any endpoint. Every controller clamps before passing, every
handler skips by the clamped size, and GetCollectionItemsHandler re-clamps
defensively. The reported observation (pageSize=500&pageNum=2 on a 204-item
collection returning 4 items) is exactly correct 0-based behaviour at the
clamped width of 100 — page 2 is items 201-204. The issue's own trap-1 table
states this. Pinned by test rather than "fixed".
ALREADY FIXED — playout LIST rows gained channelId in #297 (2026-07-22), three
days before #616 was filed; the report was measured against prod, which runs an
older :prod image. The DETAIL response (PlayoutResponseModel) genuinely still
lacked it, so channelId is added there (additive) and the reset_channel_playout
argument now names the trap: the id spaces overlap numerically, so passing a
playout id silently resets a different channel and returns a plausible 202.
Tests, both mutation-verified (each fails when its fix is reverted):
- ToolCatalogTests pins "0-based" on EVERY paged tool's pageNum description,
with a non-empty guard so it can't pass vacuously over an empty tool set.
- GetCollectionItemsHandlerTests pins 0-based page boundaries and proves the
offset derives from the clamped pageSize (page 1 at pageSize=500 returns
items 101-150; the mutation that honors 500 returns an empty page).
Docs: new decision record api.paging-zero-based (catalog regenerated), the
api-conventions paging bullet, and a Paging section in docs/mcp.md. OpenAPI
v1.json + web/src/api/generated/v1.d.ts regenerated for the added field.

Backend slice for the ChicoryTV playouts and collections screens.
PlayoutController:
- POST /api/playouts/{id}/erase-items (204; 404 pre-check; 422 unless
Block/Sequential/Scripted) -> ErasePlayoutItems
- POST /api/playouts/{id}/erase-items-and-history (204; 404; 422 unless
Classic/Block/Sequential/Scripted) -> ErasePlayoutHistory
- GET /api/playouts/items/{id}/scheduling-context (200/404) decodes a
playout item's stored context by row id via a new
GetPlayoutItemSchedulingContext query that reuses ProcessSchedulingContext
- PlayoutItemResponseModel gains HasSchedulingContext (no raw JSON in list)
- PlayoutListItemResponseModel gains PlayoutMode (ChannelNumber already present)
CollectionController:
- PUT /api/collections/{id}/custom-order (204; 404 pre-check; 422) with
UpdateCollectionCustomOrderRequest deriving CustomIndex from array order
- GetCollectionItemsHandler orders by CustomIndex (nulls last) then title/id
when the collection's UseCustomPlaybackOrder is set
Tests: controller route + behavior tests, OpenAPI ProblemDetails TestCases,
GetCollectionItems custom-order handler test. Regenerated v1.json, v1.d.ts,
endpoint-index.md.
