Fable's round-5 review ran the 16 tmp_path tests that no prior round could
execute (16/16 pass) and mutation-tested every fix. Six of seven reverts were
killed; one survived, which is finding 1.

1. The exact-arity refusal in `_token_armed` had ZERO coverage -- deleting it
   passed all 55 tests, because nothing fed malformed git-log output to that
   function. Now pinned by a test that stubs `_run` with 2-field and 4-field
   output and asserts refusal, plus a 3-field control proving the refusal is
   about arity rather than the token. Verified the new test kills the mutation.

2. `test_integration_separator_in_subject_cannot_inject` did not actually pin
   the NUL framing: with `\x1f` framing restored and the arity check kept, it
   still passed, because one or two injected separators break arity and get
   absorbed. Added a case with THREE separators, which restores a multiple-of-3
   arity and would false-arm under that revert -- so it pins the framing itself.

3. The decision record attributed the "old git echoes the trailers atom" case to
   the arity check. Wrong: an echoed atom is one well-formed field, so arity
   cannot catch it -- that case is handled by the `git --version` capability
   probe. Corrected in the record.

Not changed: review also noted subject matching is now case-insensitive, so
`[DECISIONS-EDIT]` arms where the old substring check was case-sensitive.
Deliberate and harmless -- arming still requires typing the token.

timothy 990d32f31a fix(609): anchor and bound the git version probe
Both round-4 findings, both in the version regex introduced in round 3. Both
reproduced against the old code and confirmed closed.

1. The regex was UNANCHORED, so the first dotted number anywhere in the output
   won. `wrapper 2026.1; git version 2.20.1` read as 2026.1 -> True, enabling
   trailer parsing on a git that cannot expand the atom, whose verbatim echo then
   reads as a non-empty trailer and FALSELY ARMS. Now anchored to the canonical
   `git version X.Y` prefix.

2. Digits were unbounded, so a pathological version string raised ValueError
   instead of returning the documented safe False -- Python refuses int()
   conversion of a literal over 4300 digits. Digits are now bounded to 5 each,
   plus a try/except that the bounded regex should make unreachable.

Adds seven probe cases: the wrapper-prefix and multiline-shim strings, Apple git,
an rc suffix, a three-digit major, and the 5000-digit pathological input.

timothy 851dca2596 fix(609): close round-3 review findings
All four LOW; no HIGH remained. The subject_of fix from round 2 was confirmed
correct across every message shape and all 38 historical commits.

1. The old-git compat check was a VALUE sentinel: it blanked any trailer whose
   value happened to equal the atom string, so a legitimate
   `Decisions-Edit: %(trailers:key=Decisions-Edit,valueonly)` was silently
   discarded. Replaced with a capability probe on `git --version` (>= 2.22).
   Detecting by version instead of by sniffing output removes the collision
   class entirely rather than narrowing it. Unknown/unparseable version resolves
   to False -- trailers ignored, subject-only matching -- which is the safe
   direction: a trailer-only token not arming is an annoyance, whereas reading an
   unexpanded atom as a value would falsely arm and disable the guard.

2. The compat test never called `_token_armed`, so it pinned nothing -- deleting
   the guard would have left it green. Replaced with three tests that drive the
   real function through a stubbed `_run`, covering old git (trailers ignored),
   modern git (trailer arms), a tokened subject surviving an unusable trailer,
   and version-string parsing incl. unparseable input. Proven non-vacuous:
   forcing the probe True makes the old-git test fail.

3. `_repo()` still ignored return codes from init/config/base-commit and never
   checked that the base sha resolved, so a rejected base could leave it
   returning ("", <root sha>) and negative range tests would pass vacuously. All
   commands are now checked and the base sha is asserted to be a full 40 chars.

4. docs/decisions.md line 65 still said "append it, as every prior use does".
   37 of 38 append; docs(434) is mid-subject.
2026-07-25 18:25:26 +02:00
timothy aa4a8fb849 fix(609): close round-2 review findings
HIGH -- `subject_of` used `lstrip("\n")`, so it returned the first NON-EMPTY
line. `git commit --cleanup=verbatim` accepts a message that begins with a blank
line and `%B` returns it raw, so body prose on line 2 was promoted to "subject"
and armed the token. Now literally line 1: an empty first line yields "", which
arms nothing -- failing toward the guard running.

LOW -- the old-git compat guard was a PREFIX match (`startswith("%(trailers")`)
that also `continue`d before the subject was evaluated. So a legitimate trailer
value beginning with that text was discarded, and worse, a perfectly good tokened
SUBJECT was thrown away because of its trailer field. Now an exact match against
the full atom, neutralising only the trailer and leaving the subject honoured.

LOW -- docstrings still said every historical use "appends" the token. Of the 38
uses, 37 append and `docs(434)` is mid-subject.

LOW (plausible) -- the `_repo` test helper ignored every git return code, so a
rejected commit would leave HEAD at base and every negative assertion would pass
vacuously. Return codes are now checked and HEAD is asserted to have moved.

Adds a regression test for the verbatim leading-blank-line case and one pinning
the compat guard to an exact atom match.

timothy 243bec708d fix(609): close two false-arm holes found in cross-family review
Codex review of the first attempt found both, and both were in the git plumbing
that my unit tests never touched -- they only exercised the pure predicate.

1. HIGH: git's `%s` is the first PARAGRAPH, not the first line. It joins
   consecutive non-blank lines with spaces, so
     `fix: harmless subject`
     `This explains [decisions-edit] on line two.`
   came back as ONE line containing the token and armed it -- the exact
   false-arm this change exists to prevent. The first line is now taken from
   `%B` via `subject_of()`.

2. HIGH: the in-band `\x1f`/`\x1e` field separators were injectable. A subject
   containing a literal `\x1f` was split at the wrong place and its tail read as
   a trailer, arming the token. Framing is now NUL, which git forbids inside a
   commit message and which therefore cannot be injected, with exact-arity
   parsing (fields must be a multiple of three) that refuses to arm otherwise.

Also from the same review:
- Refuse to arm on a `%(trailers:...)` atom echoed literally by a git older than
  2.22, which would otherwise read as a non-empty trailer (exit 0, so `_run`
  returns it rather than None).
- Record corrected: 38 subject-tokened commits in ancestry, not "twenty"; and it
  no longer claims a blanket fail-safe -- `_token_armed` failing is safe, but the
  surrounding `_diff_findings` fails open earlier on an unresolvable merge-base,
  skipping every check. That predates this change.

Adds 8 integration tests that drive `_token_armed` against a real throwaway git
repo -- the gap that let both defects pass. Verified non-vacuous by
reconstructing the old implementation in memory: it arms on both inputs, the new
one does not.

Note `--format` uses git's `%x00` escape, not a literal NUL: a NUL in argv raises
ValueError from subprocess, which broke every diff-engine test until fixed.

timothy 4596603020 fix(609): scope the decisions edit token to the subject line or a trailer
The token was armed by a bare substring match over every commit message in the
range, so a commit that merely DESCRIBED the mechanism armed it and skipped the
entire `if not token:` block -- all three rationale-rewrite comparisons (active
survivors, active->archive laundering, archive survivors). `removed` and `demoted`
still ran, so the job printed `decisions-validate: OK` while doing nothing. It
bit in PR#605, which had hand-resolved an append-vs-append conflict inside
docs/decisions.md -- precisely the operation the guard exists to police.

Now recognized in exactly two places:
  * the commit SUBJECT line -- the established form. All twenty prior tokened
    commits append it to the subject (or place it mid-subject, as docs(434)
    does); none put it on its own line, so the obvious "own-line only" rule
    would have broken every historical use.
  * a `Decisions-Edit: <reason>` git trailer -- the forward-looking form, which
    can carry a reason the bracketed marker cannot.

Fail-open posture unchanged: unresolvable git means the token reads unarmed, so
the guard still runs.

Verified by measuring the guard rather than reading a green check -- a positive
control over the real corpus across all three placements: no token fires (exit 1),
subject token suppresses (exit 0), body-only mention fires (exit 1). Plus an
end-to-end matcher test against a throwaway git repo covering the established
form, mid-subject placement, the trailer, a merge commit quoting a tokened PR
title, a multi-commit range, and an unresolvable ref.

# --- Base-change detection: a verdict is bound to a head AND to a base (ersatztv#632). ---
# `review-verdict/h10` is per-sha, which makes "the head moved under a fixed verdict" impossible by
# construction. Retargeting a PR's base is the mirror case and slips through: it changes neither the
# head sha nor the status, so a verdict formed while the PR targeted `main` still reads green after
# the PR is pointed at a branch with a very different merge-base. The diff moves while the verdict
# and the head both hold still.
#
# DETECTION, NOT PREVENTION, and only on this path. A commit status carries no base, so the
# server-side required check cannot see this; a merge driven through the Gitea UI or API is
# unaffected. That is the accepted exposure — base changes are rare, manual, and this is a
# two-account repo — but it is now recorded in a place that fails LOUD rather than only in a doc.

# ErsatzTV Channel Management
Container: `ersatztv` | Port: `8409`
Web UI: `https://ersatztv.tblindustries.be` (via bumblebee's `external-proxy``192.168.1.29:8409`) or `http://localhost:8409` on the host
Host: **jazz** (`192.168.1.29`) since 2026-07-20 (#633) — moved off bumblebee together with Jellyfin. `dispatcharr` and `plex` stayed on bumblebee, so Dispatcharr now reaches ErsatzTV **by IP** (`http://192.168.1.29:8409`), not by Docker DNS name.
Compose env: `ForwardedHeaders__KnownNetworks=192.168.1.99/32` (proxied traffic arrives SNAT'd from bumblebee's LAN address; wrong value breaks Authelia OIDC login only, plain HTTP still works)
Host: **jazz (192.168.1.29)**. Prod container `ersatztv` port **8409**; test `ersatztv-test` port
**8410** (tracks `:latest` via Komodo auto-update, daily 03:00 — a same-day validation needs the
manual pull below).
SQLite DB: `~/downloadswarm/ersatztv/ersatztv.sqlite3` (owned by root — use `sudo sqlite3`)
Image: `192.168.1.95:3000/timothy/ersatztv:prod` (our fork; **floating** release tag — check `git tag -l 'v*' --sort=-v:refname | head -1` in `~/ersatztv` for the current release rather than trusting a version written here). Upstream `ghcr.io/ersatztv/ersatztv` was archived at v26.3.0 and is **not** what runs here.
Release tags are `vYY.<release-seq>.<patch>` — year · sequential release-within-year · patch — **not** year.month.
## Test/Prod topology — fork CI images (#481)
We maintain an **ErsatzTV fork** (`~/ersatztv`); its Gitea Actions pipeline builds and pushes images to the
private Gitea registry `192.168.1.95:3000/timothy/ersatztv` on every push to `main` (`:latest` + `:<short-sha>`)
and, on a `v*` tag, additionally `:prod` + `:<version>`. jazz is `docker login`'d to that registry and has `192.168.1.95:3000` in `insecure-registries`.
| | Prod | Test |
|---|---|---|
| Container | `ersatztv` | `ersatztv-test` |
| Host port | 8409 | 8410 |
| Stack | Komodo **`jazz-media`**; source `docker/jazz/stacks/media-servers/compose.yaml` (stack name ≠ directory — `media-servers` is bumblebee's; Komodo stack names are globally unique) | Komodo `ersatztv`; source `docker/jazz/stacks/ersatztv/compose.yaml` |
| Image | `192.168.1.95:3000/timothy/ersatztv:prod` (floating release tag) | `192.168.1.95:3000/timothy/ersatztv:latest` (fork CI) |
| Config (host) | `~/downloadswarm/ersatztv/``/config` | `~/downloadswarm/ersatztv-test/``/config` (one-time prod snapshot, refresh on demand) |
| Jellyfin/Dispatcharr tuner | connected (live lineup) | **NOT** wired downstream (avoids ghost channels) |
| Media mounts | RO | same mounts, RO |
| `/dev/dri` | yes (**VAAPI on Intel iHD**, jazz — see hw note) | yes (`/dev/dri` + `group_add: '992'`) |
| Auto-update | **None** (`auto_update: false`) — promotion is a manual `DeployStack jazz-media`, with no 03:00 fallback | Komodo auto-update, daily 03:00 (tracks `:latest`) |
| Env | `TZ`, restricted forwarded-header network, empty-by-default local-admin seed hook | `TZ`, `ETV_CONFIG_FOLDER=/config`, `ETV_TRANSCODE_FOLDER=/transcode`, `ETV_DISABLE_VULKAN=1` |
**Watchtower is retired.** Test auto-updates via Komodo; **prod does not**`auto_update: false`, so
promoting a release is always a manual `DeployStack jazz-media`. Prod's stack has a
fail-closed pre-deploy hook: a changed compose block or `:prod` digest triggers a PBS-backed snapshot and then a
migration rehearsal against a throwaway copy of that snapshot before container recreation (#585/#589).
**Refresh test snapshot from prod** (zero prod downtime — WAL online backup):
```bash
ssh timothy@192.168.1.29
docker stop ersatztv-test
sudo sqlite3 ~/downloadswarm/ersatztv/ersatztv.sqlite3 ".backup '/home/timothy/downloadswarm/ersatztv-test/ersatztv.sqlite3'"
sudo rsync -a --exclude='ersatztv.sqlite3*' --exclude='logs/' ~/downloadswarm/ersatztv/ ~/downloadswarm/ersatztv-test/
docker start ersatztv-test
```
**Prod cutover to the fork** — ✅ DONE 2026-06-27 (#481). Prod runs `…/timothy/ersatztv:prod` (v26.3.1);
validated `:prod` on test first, then `etv-prod-deploy.sh` backed up + cut over (43 channels, healthy,
clean migrations). Downstream (Dispatcharr M3U acct 3 + EPG src 9) is name-based, so the container IP
change was transparent. Prod stays a **manual** gate (no Watchtower label) and still lives in the
`media-servers` stack (the optional move into the `ersatztv` stack was not done).
**Future prod releases** (push `v*` tag in `~/ersatztv` → CI builds `:prod`/`:<version>`): scan the immutable
`:<version>` image on jazz first, then execute Komodo `DeployStack` for `jazz-media`. The pre-deploy hook
backs up and runs the migration-on-prod-copy smoke before recreation. **There is no auto-update fallback for
prod** — if you don't `DeployStack`, nothing ships. Note the stack is named **`jazz-media`** even though the
compose *project* is still `media-servers`; a dead `media-servers` stack lingers on bumblebee and deploying it
fails silently. Roll back with the immutable prior image plus the pre-deploy DB snapshot; migrations are
forward-only. See the `komodo` skill and `docs/Docker/ErsatzTV.md` for the current procedure.
## Backup & deploy safety (#482)
Every prod deploy runs forward-only EF Core migrations against the live 285 MB SQLite DB — a bad one
can't be undone by re-deploying the old image, so the **only** rollback is restoring a pre-deploy DB
snapshot. Three scripts in `~/scripts/` (source of truth: `scripts/` in this repo) handle
them. **⚠️ These were installed on bumblebee, where ErsatzTV no longer runs (#633) — verify they exist on
jazz and that the Komodo `pre_deploy` hook is set on the `jazz-media` stack before relying on
"no backup, no deploy". Until confirmed, take a manual `etv-backup.sh` snapshot before every prod deploy.**
this. **Run as root** (DB + PBS creds are root-owned) except the deploy wrapper (run as `timothy`).
| Script | Run as | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| `etv-backup.sh [--target prod\|test] [--no-offbox]` | root (sudo) | Online `sqlite3 .backup` (zero-downtime) + `integrity_check`, provenance `manifest.txt` (image ref/digest + last `__EFMigrationsHistory` id), bundles `data-protection/` + `*-secrets.json`. Local **keep-last-5** under `~/downloadswarm/ersatztv-backups/<UTC-ts>/`; prod also pushes off-box to PBS. Prints the snapshot dir on stdout. |
| `etv-prod-deploy.sh` | **timothy** (needs private-registry creds; sudo's for the backup) | Backup (abort deploy if it fails) → `compose pull` + `up -d ersatztv` → health + M3U gate → prints a copy-paste rollback block on trouble. |
| `etv-restore.sh --target prod\|test --from <snapshot-dir>` | root (sudo) | Verifies snapshot → stop → saves current DB aside (`*.pre-restore-<ts>`) → swaps DB, drops stale `-wal/-shm`, restores `data-protection` → start → health/channel check. |
- **Off-box:** prod backups go to PBS `data-local` (.68) as backup-id **`ersatztv-predeploy`** (own
group, dedups against the nightly host backup), via the existing `/root/.proxmox-backup-client.env`.
- **Retention:** local keep-last-5 (instant rollback); PBS via the datastore-wide `data-local-prune`
job (7 daily / 4 weekly / 6 monthly), no separate prune job needed.
- **Restore from PBS** instead of a local dir:
```bash
source /root/.proxmox-backup-client.env
proxmox-backup-client restore ersatztv-predeploy/<snapshot> etv.pxar <outdir>
sudo ~/scripts/etv-restore.sh --target prod --from <outdir>
```
- `docker exec` always curls the container-internal port **8409** (even for test, whose host port is
8410). `etv-restore.sh` leaves a `*.pre-restore-<ts>` safety copy in `/config` — delete once happy.
- Validated 2026-06-27: first prod backup → PBS group created; full restore round-trip on `ersatztv-test`
returned 43 channels. Design: `plans/2026-06-27-ersatztv-backup-before-deploy-design.md`.
Image: **our fork**, `192.168.1.95:3000/timothy/ersatztv` (`:prod` / `:latest`). Upstream
`ghcr.io/ersatztv/ersatztv` was archived at v26.3.0 and is NOT what runs here.
## Architecture
**ErsatzTV is for channel creation only.** Consumers (Jellyfin, Kodi) never connect to ErsatzTV directly — everything goes through Dispatcharr as the single aggregation point. Pipeline: ErsatzTV → Dispatcharr → Jellyfin/Kodi.
**This section described upstream v26.3.0 and was wrong for the fork — corrected 2026-07-21.**
ErsatzTV uses **MediatR + the ChicoryTV React SPA**. The legacy Blazor UI was removed in v26.7.0 (#91
phase b) — the SPA at `/app` is the **only** UI, and legacy routes 302 there. The versioned `/api/v1`
surface provides full CRUD — channels, collections, schedules, playouts and media sources; browser calls
use a local-admin/OIDC session cookie plus `X-CSRF` on mutations, and machine clients use `X-Api-Key`.
**Do not hand-edit SQLite for something the API can do** — direct SQLite writes are a recovery fallback,
not the normal management path, and the DB recipes below survive only for gaps with no endpoint.
- The **Blazor UI is gone** (#91 phase b). The only UI is the ChicoryTV React SPA at `/app`; legacy
routes 302 there.
- There **is** a full versioned REST API under **`/api/v1`**, write paths included — channels,
collections, schedules, playouts and media sources have CRUD. **Do not hand-edit SQLite for
something the API can do.** The DB-scripting recipes below survive only for gaps with no endpoint.
- Controllers stay thin and delegate to MediatR handlers; the SPA talks to `/api/v1` only.
- Authoritative endpoint list: `docs/endpoint-index.md` (generated) + `docs/api-conventions.md`.
Prefer those over any list in this file — a hand-maintained copy drifts.
Controllers stay thin and delegate to MediatR handlers. **Authoritative endpoint list:
`docs/endpoint-index.md` (generated) + `docs/api-conventions.md` in the ersatztv repo — prefer those
over any list in this file**, which is hand-maintained and drifts.
## REST API access (auth-gated — read before curling)
## REST API
Calls need **`X-Api-Key`** (machine clients) or a browser session. An unauthenticated call returns a
401 JSON body that is easy to mistake for real data — see the silent-401 trap in Gotchas.
```bash
# Via docker exec (api.key is readable inside the container)
docker exec ersatztv curl -s -H "X-Api-Key: $(docker exec ersatztv cat /config/api.key)" \
http://localhost:8409/api/v1/ENDPOINT
```
From the **host**, the key file is root-owned `0600`, so an unsudo'd `cat` fails *silently* and sends an
empty header. Read it with `sudo`, inline, so the value is never printed:

### Paging — 0-based (ersatztv#616, `api.paging-zero-based`)
- **`pageNum` is 0-based** across the whole `/api/v1` surface and every wrapper of it (MCP tools, SPA
hooks, docs). Starting at 1 silently skips a page and returns a short set **with no error**.
- **`pageSize` is clamped per-endpoint** — 100 typical, 200 auto-tune members, 1000 search/all-items —
and the offset derives from the *effective* (clamped) size, not the requested one. Page to
completeness against `totalCount`; never conclude "that's all of them" from a single page.
- **`POST /api/v1/channels/{id}/playout/reset` takes a CHANNEL id, not the playout id.** The id spaces
overlap numerically, so passing a playout row's `Id` returns a plausible 202 against a *different*
channel. Playout rows carry `channelId` — use that.
Settings live under `/api/v1/settings/*``settings/ffmpeg` (`workAheadSegmenterLimit`,
`qsvExtraHardwareFrames`) and `settings/logging` (`streamingMinimumLogLevel`). Note the order: it is
`settings/ffmpeg`, **not** `ffmpeg/settings`.

### Table Schema Notes
**CollectionItem**: Has `CollectionId` + `MediaItemId` columns only (no `Id` column — use `rowid` for counting).
**MediaVersion**: Links to content via `MovieId`, `EpisodeId`, `MusicVideoId` columns (NOT a generic `MediaItemId`). Use `mv.MovieId = ci.MediaItemId` for movie/music video collections.
**Movie / Show / Episode / MusicVideo**: Inheritance from `MediaItem`. These tables have only an `Id` column (PK = MediaItem.Id). Titles and metadata are in separate `*Metadata` tables.
**Artwork**: Channel logos use `ArtworkKind=2` with `ChannelId` set. `Path` column is SHA256 hash (uppercase) of the image file. Files stored at `/config/cache/artwork/logos/{Path[0:2]}/{Path}`.
**ChannelWatermark**: Global watermark config (Id=1, "Channel Bug"). All channels share this via `Channel.WatermarkId=1`. This is the burn-in watermark overlay, NOT the channel logo.
**ProgramScheduleItem subtype tables**: `ProgramScheduleOneItem`, `ProgramScheduleDurationItem`, `ProgramScheduleFloodItem`, `ProgramScheduleMultipleItem`. MUST insert into the matching subtype table (usually `ProgramScheduleOneItem`).

## FFmpeg & Hardware
- **QSV encode + VA-API decode on Intel (iHD)** — ErsatzTV runs on **jazz** (i7-10700K, Intel iGPU) since #633. The single `FFmpegProfile` row (`Id = 1`, referenced by all 43 channels) has `HardwareAcceleration = 1` (**Qsv**), `QsvPreferNativeDecoder = 1` (ON), `QsvExtraHardwareFrames = 64`, `VaapiDevice = /dev/dri/renderD128`. Verified live 2026-07-26. The profile is still *named* "1080p VAAPI h264 aac" — cosmetic, ignore the name.
- **The old "do NOT set QSV" rule is RETIRED — #498 fixed the blocker it was based on.** The 2026-07-20 regression was real (QSV's *decoder* is far stricter than VAAPI about malformed NAL units and failed 3 of 6 cold-starts: `Error splitting the input into NAL units`), and the stated cause was that one `HardwareAcceleration` column governed both decode and encode. **#498 added `QsvPreferNativeDecoder` (default ON, Linux-only)**, which splits them exactly like Jellyfin: decode with the tolerant VA-API decoder, encode with QSV. That is what prod runs now. Do not "fix" prod back to `3` (Vaapi) on the strength of the old note.
- **Two QSV traps already paid for, both fixed in code — don't re-derive them:**
- `QsvExtraHardwareFrames` must never be `0`: the software→QSV `hwupload` bridge has no headroom and the transcode writes **zero segments** on any unthrottled read (#523/#529). Code now floors it at 64 (`ffmpeg.qsv-extra-hw-frames-floor`).
- **HDR tonemapping never uses `vpp_qsv=tonemap`** — on this Gen9.5 iGPU that filter is a *silent no-op* (byte-identical output, exit 0, no warning), so it looked like GPU tonemapping while doing nothing. ErsatzTV now tonemaps via VA-API→OpenCL (#505, `ffmpeg.qsv-hdr-tonemap-opencl`). Same trap applies to Jellyfin's `EnableVppTonemapping` on this host — keep it off.
- Fallback if VAAPI also misbehaves (see #631, VAAPI `hwupload -22` on 10-bit): `HardwareAcceleration = 0` (software). jazz has 16 threads at load ~2, so it is affordable and maximally tolerant of imperfect sources.
- QSV (Intel Quick Sync) hardware acceleration
- Resolution: 1920x1080, H264, AAC stereo
- Device: `/dev/dri` passed through (`renderD128`)
- HardwareAccelerationKind: 0=None, 1=Qsv, 2=Nvenc, 3=Vaapi, 4=VideoToolbox, 5=Amf — **jazz uses 1 (Qsv)** with `QsvPreferNativeDecoder` ON (see above)
- jazz's iGPU is shared with Jellyfin only (Frigate stayed on bumblebee); render GID is 992 on both hosts, so `group_add: '992'` carried over unchanged
- Device: `/dev/dri` passed through
- HardwareAccelerationKind: 0=None, 1=Qsv, 2=Nvenc, 3=Vaapi, 4=VideoToolbox, 5=Amf
## Jellyfin Integration
- Secrets: `/config/jellyfin-secrets.json` (`{"Address":"http://jellyfin:8096","ApiKey":"978033be716d46678a5d3c54ae0e0ff9"}`)
- **ErsatzTV** library ids (verified 2026-07-26): Jellyfin source → Movies **10**, TV Shows **11**,
Music Videos **16**; Local source → Standup **14**. These are *ErsatzTV* ids and are **not** the same
as Jellyfin's own library ids — don't reuse one for the other. Re-derive with
`GET /api/v1/media-sources` rather than trusting this list.
- Scan a library with `POST /api/v1/libraries/{id}/scan` (there is no `PUT …/sync`).
- Libraries: Movies(10), TV Shows(11), Music Videos(8), Standup(9)
- `JellyfinLibrary.ShouldSyncItems` must be `1` for scans to work
## Gotchas
### Post-move to jazz (#633)
- **Any rsync from bumblebee's `~/downloadswarm/ersatztv/` re-reverts the QSV setting** — it overwrites `ersatztv.sqlite3`, restoring bumblebee's AMD-era values. Apply config changes **after** the final sync, then re-verify. (Same trap for Jellyfin's `encoding.xml` and `livetv.xml`.)
- **The config dir has root-owned files** (`ersatztv.sqlite3`, `cache/channel-guide/*`), so rsync needs sudo at **both** ends:
```bash
sudo rsync -a --delete -e "ssh -i /home/timothy/.ssh/id_rsa" --rsync-path="sudo rsync" \
timothy@192.168.1.99:/home/timothy/downloadswarm/ersatztv/ /home/timothy/downloadswarm/ersatztv/
```
- **Dispatcharr caches ErsatzTV's XMLTV.** Repointing its DB rows is not enough — it keeps serving a stale EPG full of dead `ersatztv:8409` artwork URLs (breaks Kodi artwork). Force a refresh (EPG source 9):
```bash
ssh timothy@192.168.1.99 'docker exec dispatcharr python manage.py shell -c \
"from apps.epg.tasks import refresh_epg_data; refresh_epg_data(9)"'
```
- **`/api/health` returns 401** (needs an API key). The Telegraf probe has no `response_string_match`, so ErsatzTV reads as **unhealthy in Grafana** — a false alarm, and **pre-existing**, not caused by the move. The container healthcheck uses the unauthenticated internal `/health` and is unaffected.
- **A Komodo deploy alone may not apply bind-mounted config changes** — containers kept serving the pre-checkout inode despite a current `deployed_hash`. `docker restart` explicitly and verify inside the container.
### Common Mistakes (check every time)
- **Playout not building**: Three things must all be correct: (1) `ProgramScheduleOneItem` row exists for the schedule item, (2) `PlaybackOrder=3` (Shuffle), (3) `ScheduleKind=1` on Playout. Missing any one results in 0 playout items — this is the most common issue.
- **Collection queries fail**: `CollectionItem` has no `Id` column — use `rowid` for counting. Content lookup goes through `MediaVersion.MovieId` → `MediaFile.Path` (not a generic MediaItemId join).
- **Channel logos forgotten**: After creating a channel, add an Artwork row (ArtworkKind=2) + logo file, then run `fix_logos.py` to push to Jellyfin. Without this, the channel shows no logo in the EPG.
- **Playout reset required**: After any schedule/collection change, run `POST /api/v1/channels/{id}/playout/reset`. Wait 5-10s for the playout to build before verifying item count.
### Streaming mode + the Dispatcharr reliability fix — #500
Consumers reach ETV **only through Dispatcharr** (`ErsatzTV → Dispatcharr → Jellyfin/Kodi`), which proxies every channel with `ffmpeg -i <etv-url> -c copy -f mpegts`. **Both HLS Segmenter (`StreamingMode=4`) and MPEG-TS (`StreamingMode=1`, `ts-legacy`) work** — Dispatcharr remuxes either to mpegts, and ETV's HLS segments are themselves mpegts with in-band SPS/PPS, so `-c copy` carries codec init either way. We run **42 channels on HLS** (ETV default; ts-legacy showed more visual glitching) + Jungle(407) on TS.
- **What the ~6 s cold-start actually was — ersatztv#350 (fixed 2026-07-20).** `-readrate 1.05` paces input at wall clock so the channel behaves like live TV, and it applies from the **first** read; with 4 s HLS segments a throttled session could not serve the playlist sooner than ~3.8 s. Only `workAheadSegmenterLimit` sessions (prod: **1**, see `/api/v1/settings/ffmpeg`) start unthrottled, so **concurrent tune-ins are the slow ones** — measured 866 ms for the slot winner vs 3845/6357 ms for two simultaneous tunes. Subtitle burn-in, source GOP length and NFS were investigated and **ruled out** (accurate-seek costs 30100 ms). Fixed with `-readrate_initial_burst` (5369 → 648 ms at the ffmpeg level); end-to-end verification tracked in `timothy/ersatztv#519`, so until that lands treat it as expected rather than confirmed. Diagnose with `docker logs ersatztv | grep "HLS cold-start"` — the line splits `setup / startup (prep + ffmpegInit + firstGop) / fill`.
- **The reliability bug was NOT the streaming mode — it was a Dispatcharr teardown race.** Any tune spins up a fresh ETV transcode (historically ~6 s cold-start, same for HLS and TS — see above). With Dispatcharr's default `channel_shutdown_delay=0`, the instant a client's open-timeout drops it the channel tears down, and the retry hits a 503 → ETV cold-starts again → death-spiral (Dispatcharr#503/#851). **Fix lives in Dispatcharr: `channel_shutdown_delay=15`** (see dispatcharr skill → Gotchas). Verified by reverting all channels to HLS while keeping the delay → reliable starts + correct audio sync (2026-06-28).
- **Corrected theory:** the first #500 pass blamed HLS for `Invalid avcC`/codec-init and switched everything to MPEG-TS. **That was wrong** — `-c copy` of mpegts HLS segments carries SPS/PPS fine; the `avcC` log line was transient/info-level and appeared on TS too. The isolation test (HLS + the delay) proved `channel_shutdown_delay` was the actual fix, and we reverted to HLS for better quality.
- Flip a channel's mode live (no restart — ETV reads it per M3U request): `UPDATE Channel SET StreamingMode=4 WHERE …;` then sync Dispatcharr's stored stream URL for that channel (`.m3u8?mode=segmenter` ↔ `.ts?mode=ts-legacy`).
- **Open / in progress:** through Dispatcharr's `-c copy` proxy, HLS showed a one-time skip-back shortly after start (Dispatcharr's `new_client_behind_seconds` repositioning the client behind live — set to 0 to test) and TS showed more glitching. Artifact tuning continues — see the dispatcharr skill and the #500 follow-up.
### Measuring what is actually deployed / what actually happened
- **The api.key file is root-owned, and an unsudo'd read fails SILENTLY.** `cat` returns nothing, the
header goes out empty, and the 401 body parses as a dict — so a naive script reports "0 channels"
rather than an auth error. If a query returns a suspiciously empty result, **check auth before
believing it.** (Cost a wrong reading on 2026-07-21.)
- **A container's OCI labels lie about what is running** — they are inherited from the base image (they
claimed `2026-06-27` on an image built minutes earlier). Tags and `StartedAt` lie too. To prove which
build is live, compare `docker inspect <c> --format '{{.Image}}'` (the manifest digest on jazz) to the
registry's `Docker-Content-Digest` header for that tag — not `.config.digest`. (ersatztv#350)
- **Container log lines carry a LOCAL-time bracket (`[18:48:13 DBG]`) while `docker logs -t` emits
UTC**, so `--since` windows silently mis-slice. For before/after measurements capture by **line
offset** instead (`wc -l` before, `tail -n +N` after).
### DB & Architecture
- DB owned by root — always use `sudo sqlite3`
- **The api.key file is root-owned too, and an unsudo'd read fails SILENTLY.** `cat` returns nothing,
the header goes out empty, and the 401 body parses as a dict — so a naive script reports "0
channels" rather than an auth error. If a query returns a suspiciously empty result, check auth
before believing it. (Cost a wrong reading on 2026-07-21.)
- WAL mode: reads OK while running, stop container for writes
- Full REST CRUD is available under `/api/v1`; prefer it over direct DB writes
- ~~No REST API for channel/collection/schedule CRUD~~ — **false since the fork's `/api/v1`**; use the
API, not DB scripting, wherever an endpoint exists
- **A container's OCI labels lie about what is running** — they are inherited from the linuxserver
base image (they claimed `2026-06-27` on an image built minutes earlier). To prove which build is
live, compare `docker inspect <c> --format '{{.Image}}'` to the registry's `Docker-Content-Digest`
for that tag
- **Container log lines carry a LOCAL-time bracket (`[18:48:13 DBG]`) while `docker logs -t` emits
UTC**, so `--since` windows silently mis-slice. For before/after measurements capture by line
offset instead (`wc -l` before, `tail -n +N` after)
- Secrets file uses PascalCase JSON (`Address`, `ApiKey`)
- Scanner is separate binary (`ErsatzTV.Scanner`) — check with `docker top ersatztv | grep Scanner`
- EF TPT inheritance: `ProgramScheduleItem` has subtype tables (`ProgramScheduleOneItem`, etc.) — inserting into the subtype table is required or EF Core won't recognize the row
- `/health` is the unauthenticated container-health gate; use an authenticated `/api/v1` read to verify the API
### Enums
- PlaybackOrder: 2=Chronological (broken for collections — produces empty playouts), 3=Shuffle, 6=SeasonEpisode — use 3 for reliable results
- CollectionType: 0=Collection, 1=Show (direct show reference via MediaItemId)
- EF TPT inheritance: `ProgramScheduleItem` has subtype tables (`ProgramScheduleOneItem`, etc.) — MUST insert into subtype table
- External URL logos work for M3U but NOT for watermark burn-in (code checks `File.Exists()`)
- `/api/health` predates the Blazor removal; verify the API with an authenticated `/api/v1/channels` instead
- PlaybackOrder enum: 3=Shuffle, 6=SeasonEpisode (use 3 for all channels)
- CollectionType enum: 0=Collection, 1=Show (direct show reference via MediaItemId)
- SubtitleMode: 0=None, 2=Burn-in. Set to 2 with PreferredSubtitleLanguageCode='eng' for non-music channels
- MediaItem.State: 0=Normal, 1=FileNotFound — clean up state=1 items by deleting cascading deps
- ScheduleKind: 0=None (broken — playout never builds), 1=Fixed — use 1
- StreamingMode: 4=HLS Segmenter (`…/channel/N.m3u8?mode=segmenter`) — **ETV default, what we run** (42 channels); 1=MPEG-TS (`…/channel/N.ts?mode=ts-legacy`, Jungle/407 only). Both work through Dispatcharr (it remuxes either to mpegts via `-c copy`). Read live per M3U request → flipping needs **no container restart**. The #500 reliability fix was a Dispatcharr setting (`channel_shutdown_delay`), NOT the mode — see "Streaming mode" gotcha.
### Channel Creation Checklist
1. Collection + CollectionItems (for collection-based) OR MediaItemId (for show-specific)
2. ProgramSchedule (all NOT NULL columns: FixedStartTimeBehavior, KeepMultiPartEpisodesTogether, RandomStartPoint, ShuffleScheduleItems, TreatCollectionsAsShows)
3. ProgramScheduleItem (PlaybackOrder=3) + ProgramScheduleOneItem subtype row
4. Channel (SongVideoMode=0, WatermarkId=1, all required columns)
5. Playout (ScheduleKind=1)
6. Artwork (ArtworkKind=2) + logo file in cache
7. `POST /api/v1/channels/{id}/playout/reset`
8. Run `fix_logos.py` to push logo to Jellyfin
### Logo System
- **External-URL logos now work for the on-screen bug too** — fixed in ersatztv#502 (2026-07-20,
`ffmpeg.external-logo-graphics-engine`). The old claim that they work for M3U but not watermark
burn-in described a `WatermarkSelector` `File.Exists()` gate that is gone; an external logo is
fetched, decode-budget-validated and stored in the image cache at **save** time
(`graphics.channel-logo-caching`), so the render path never fetches over HTTP and a bad URL fails
the save with a 422.
- **M3U/XMLTV absolute URLs are no longer stuck on the request-derived host.** They used to bake in
whatever host fetched the feed (the historical `http://localhost:8409` symptom, Gitea #1/#171),
which Jellyfin can't resolve from inside its container. Set the optional advertised base URL —
`GET`/`PUT /api/v1/settings/iptv` (`iptv.base_url`, ersatztv#340, `iptv.base-url`) — to pin them to
a fixed public origin; unset falls back byte-identical to the old behavior. The base64-upload
workaround in `docs/Docker/ErsatzTV.md` is only needed if that setting is left unset.
- **No usable logo ⇒ no on-screen bug, from every attachment point** (ersatztv#510, 2026-07-26,
`ffmpeg.watermark-resolution-unified`). A `ChannelLogo` watermark resolves through one shared
`WatermarkSelector.ResolveWatermark` whether it came from a playout item, the channel, the global
setting, **or a deco**. A missing cached file, an un-migrated external URL, and a channel with no logo
artwork each render *without* a bug and log a warning. So when debugging "this channel has a watermark
configured but no bug appears", grep the log for `has no logo artwork` / `no longer exists` before
suspecting the ffmpeg pipeline.
- Before #510 the **deco** path alone was unchecked and returned the generated-initials nameplate
(`/iptv/logos/gen`) for a logoless channel — it genuinely rendered. That fallback is now off
everywhere; reviving it via the image cache is ersatztv#652.
- **Not covered:** the song-progress overlay is built as a `WatermarkOptions` directly by the
streaming/troubleshooting handlers, bypassing the resolver, and is still unchecked — ersatztv#653.
- **`/iptv/logos/gen` is unauthenticated**, unlike the rest of `/iptv`: `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter`
is a class-level attribute on `IptvController` only, and that route lives on `ArtworkController`.
Handy for probing, and the reason a container-internal self-fetch of a generated logo succeeds.
- **Seeding a deco watermark for testing is fully API-driven** (no SQLite needed): `POST /api/v1/watermarks`
(needs the full required field set — check `v1.json`), `POST /api/v1/decos/groups`, `POST /api/v1/decos`,
`PUT /api/v1/decos/{id}` (set `watermarkMode` + `watermarkIds`), then `PUT /api/v1/playouts/{id}/deco`.
Use `watermarkMode: "Override"` to make the deco watermark the only one selected. Note branding is
**not** testable through the troubleshooting-playback API (`testing.troubleshoot-path-cannot-test-branding`)
— drive a real channel playout and capture a frame.
- `logo_XX.png` files in the logos root dir are HTML garbage (broken downloads), not actual logos — ignore them
### Other
- Upstream was archived in Feb 2026; `timothy/ersatztv` is the maintained fork and release source
- ProgramSchedule required NOT NULL columns: FixedStartTimeBehavior, KeepMultiPartEpisodesTogether, RandomStartPoint, ShuffleScheduleItems, TreatCollectionsAsShows
- Channel required NOT NULL columns: SongVideoMode (set 0), plus all standard columns (see Channel table schema)
- After schedule changes, rebuild playout: `POST /api/channels/{number}/playout/reset`
- Playout `ScheduleKind` must be `1` (not `0`/None) — `0` causes "Cannot build playout type None" error
- M3U `tvg-logo` URLs hardcode `http://localhost:8409` — Jellyfin can't fetch these from inside its container. Fix by downloading logos from ETV and base64-uploading to Jellyfin (see `docs/Docker/ErsatzTV.md` for script). Tracked in issue #171
- Repo archived Feb 2026, v26.3.0 is final stable version. Maintainer welcomes forks

## Library IDs
Check with: `curl -s -H "X-Emby-Token: TOKEN" http://localhost:8096/Library/VirtualFolders`
## Live TV
- **ErsatzTV** (channels <1000): M3U `http://ersatztv:8409/iptv/channels.m3u`, XMLTV `http://ersatztv:8409/iptv/xmltv.xml`
- **Dispatcharr** (channels 1000+): IPTV stream manager on port 9191, separate tuner
- Configured in Jellyfin Admin > Live TV
- Guide refresh task ID: `bea9b218c97bbf98c5dc1303bdb9a0ca` — trigger via `POST /ScheduledTasks/Running/{id}`
- **Logo fix after guide refresh**: ErsatzTV logos break (aspect ratio=0) because M3U uses `localhost:8409`. Fix script in `docs/Docker/ErsatzTV.md` downloads from ETV and base64-uploads to `POST /Items/{id}/Images/Primary` (body = base64, Content-Type = image/png)
- **Image upload format**: Jellyfin expects base64-encoded body (NOT raw binary) for `POST /Items/{id}/Images/Primary`
## Gotchas
- **Passwords**: `coup1802` (NOT `ded89Lm4`) — Jellyfin has native auth, no Authelia
- Auth header is `X-Emby-Token` (Jellyfin is an Emby fork)
- **Music videos are typed `MusicVideo`, NOT `Movie`** (corrected 2026-07-21, ersatztv#177). The old
"typed as Movie" note described a deliberate DB reclassification workaround that existed only because
ErsatzTV could not consume `MusicVideo` items — ersatztv#42 shipped that sync, so the workaround's
premise is gone. Verified live: the `Music Videos` library (`/data/music`, collection type
`musicvideos`) holds 1437 items typed `MusicVideo` and **zero** typed `Movie`. Query with
`includeItemTypes=MusicVideo`. (Reclassification to `Movie` may still apply to concert/standup content
in the `movies`/`mixed` libraries — that is a different set; see the server-management jellyfin skill.)
- **`Album` is not an `ItemFields` value.** It is a plain `BaseItemDto` property serialized whenever set,
so it comes back regardless of the `fields=` query param — do NOT add it to `fields` (verified: 111 of
1437 music videos returned `Album` with `fields=Path` alone). Contrast `Genres`/`People`/`Chapters`,
which ARE `ItemFields` and must be requested. Check the enum before extending `fields`.
- **`IndexNumber` is the track number; `ParentIndexNumber` is the disc/season axis.** Frequency misleads
here — on the live music video library `ParentIndexNumber` is populated on 66 items vs 4 for
`IndexNumber`, but where both exist `ParentIndexNumber` is `1` while `IndexNumber` holds the real
ordinal, and where only `ParentIndexNumber` exists it is a collection grouping tracking the album
(`Glastonbury: 2022` -> 230). `AlbumId` is always null on these items.
- Music library at `/data/music` maps to `/mnt/media/music_videos` on host (not actual music)
- Items return 404 on stream if source volume is unmounted
- Jellyfin preserves item IDs across restarts unless files are renamed
- Full library scan can take a long time — prefer targeted `/Items/{id}/Refresh`
- `ffprobe` available in container for checking media streams: `docker exec jellyfin ffprobe -v quiet -print_format json -show_streams FILE`

name: Review verdict
# ersatztv#622 — server-side H10 enforcement.
#
# THE INVARIANT. `review-verdict/h10` is a REQUIRED status check on `main`, and a Gitea commit
# status belongs to exactly ONE sha. So a commit that did not exist when a verdict was written can
# never inherit that verdict: push a new head and the required context is simply absent, which
# Gitea's merge-requirement check treats as not-passing. `merge_when_checks_succeed` therefore
# refuses to fire until someone re-reviews THAT head. This is what closes the ersatztv#622 hole,
# where the PreToolUse hook proved conditions (b) and (c) against the head at SCHEDULING time and
# Gitea then merged whatever head happened to be green minutes later.
#
# WHAT THIS WORKFLOW DOES — and, importantly, does NOT do. It does NOT decide whether code was
# reviewed; only a human/agent review does that, via `scripts/post-review-verdict.sh`, which writes
# the `review-verdict/h10` status directly. This workflow only handles the two EXEMPT classes that
# would otherwise deadlock, and marks everything else `pending` so the PR shows an explicit,
# actionable blocking reason instead of a silently-missing check:
#
# 1. Bot-authored PRs (Renovate). Renovate uses `platformAutomerge: true` — i.e. Gitea's OWN
# auto-merge — to land patch bumps unattended. A required verdict context with no exemption
# would stall every dependency PR forever waiting on a human verdict.
# 2. Docs-only PRs, mirroring the merge-consent hook's existing docs-only carve-out.
#
# BOTH exemptions are void when the PR touches a PROTECTED path (see PROTECTED below): the gate,
# the CI definition, the git hooks, the scripts they call, and the CI toolchain image. A PR that
# weakens the merge gate must never be able to exempt itself from the merge gate — that is the one
# self-referential failure worth spending an explicit rule on. Note this also (deliberately) means
# Renovate's `docker/ci/Dockerfile` base bumps need a real verdict; those already require the
# manual publish-then-pin two-step (docs/ci-cd.md -> "CI toolchain image"), so unattended merge was
# never correct for them anyway.
#
# WHY ITS OWN FILE, not a job in pr-checks.yml: that workflow sets `cancel-in-progress: true`, so a
# superseding push cancels its runs. A cancelled run here would leave an EXEMPT PR with no success
# status and no further pushes to re-trigger it — Renovate would stall silently. This workflow
# therefore takes no cancelling concurrency group.
#
# This job's OWN status context ("Review verdict / Set review-verdict status (pull_request_target)")
# is NOT the required check and is not what gates merges — `review-verdict/h10`, the status it
# POSTS, is. Keeping them distinct is deliberate: a workflow cannot be allowed to satisfy the gate
# merely by running successfully. The context string carries the trigger name, so the #672 switch
# renamed it; that is safe only because it was never in branch protection's required list (which is
# the two `docker-build.yml` job contexts plus `review-verdict/h10`). Adding it there later would
# undo the distinction this paragraph exists to protect.
#
# THE CHANGED-FILE ENUMERATION IS NOT INLINE HERE (ersatztv#649). It lives in
# `scripts/pr-changed-files.sh`, the single implementation this job and the advisory hook
# `.claude/hooks/pretooluse-merge-consent.sh` both call. It used to be written twice, and drifted in
# the dangerous direction: four rounds of ersatztv#643 hardening landed on the ADVISORY copy (whose
# failure mode is a human prompt) and never reached THIS one (whose failure mode is a `success`
# write to a required status with nobody in the loop). See
# `docs/decisions/records/ci/shared-pr-file-enumeration.md`.
#
# WHY THE CHECKOUT TAKES THE PR'S **BASE** REF, NEVER THE HEAD. This job judges the PR, so the PR
# must not be able to supply the code that judges it. Checking out `head.sha` would let a PR edit
# `scripts/pr-changed-files.sh` to return an empty list and exempt itself — the `PROTECTED` list
# below would flag the edit, but only if the enumeration that feeds it were trustworthy, and it
# would be the PR's own. `base.sha` is the commit the PR merges INTO: already on `main`, already
# reviewed. `persist-credentials: false` because nothing here pushes, and a checkout that leaves a
# token in `.git/config` hands it to every script the job runs.
#
# WHY THE TRIGGER IS `pull_request_target`, NOT `pull_request` (ersatztv#672). The base-ref checkout
# above binds the SCRIPTS this job runs to the base. It does not bind the job DEFINITION. Gitea
# resolves a `pull_request` workflow definition from the PR's own head commit, so a PR editing THIS
# FILE ran its own rewritten copy — which could delete the checkout above, or skip straight to
# posting `review-verdict/h10=success` for its head sha. `PROTECTED` did not help (the rewrite
# defines `PROTECTED` too) and neither did branch protection, which requires the *context* and
# carries `required_approvals: 0`, so a self-posted success satisfied it outright.
#
# Measured on this instance (Gitea 1.25.4) rather than inferred from GitHub, because the whole point
# is that the gate's authority is derived, not asserted. A scratch PR rewriting this file to post a
# distinct probe context posted exactly that context, and the real `review-verdict/h10` was never
# written at all — the base's definition never ran. Under `pull_request_target` the same rewrite was
# ignored: the BASE definition ran and posted `h10=pending`, on both `opened` and `synchronize`,
# with `secrets` still available.
#
# `pull_request_target` is normally the DANGEROUS trigger, and it is worth being explicit about why
# that reputation does not transfer here. Its footgun is running untrusted HEAD code with a
# privileged token. This job never checks out the head and never executes anything the PR supplies:
# it checks out `base.sha` and runs only scripts from that tree. The base-ref checkout is what makes
# this trigger safe, so the two must be read as one decision — reintroducing a head checkout under
# this trigger would be far worse than the bug being fixed here.
#
# `branches: [main]` IS LOAD-BEARING, not cosmetic. Base resolution means the BASE branch supplies
# the definition, so without this filter a PR opened into an attacker-pushed base branch would run
# THAT branch's rewritten gate — trading a head-supplied definition for a base-supplied one and
# closing nothing. It matters more than it looks because a commit status is repo-global per sha
# (#663): a `success` forged on a head sha under a scratch base is inherited by a later, real PR
# into `main` carrying the same head. With the filter, a PR whose base is not `main` produces no run
# and no status at all (verified the same way).
# `edited` IS LOAD-BEARING (ersatztv#698 route 1), not completeness for its own sake. Gitea fires it
# when a PR's base is retargeted, and a retarget changes the effective diff WITHOUT moving the head
# sha — so none of the other four types fire and the per-sha status stays exactly as it was. That is
# what made route 1 persist rather than merely exist: a PR was opened into `main`, retargeted to a
# scratch base while this job was in flight so the enumeration read docs-only and posted an exemption
# `success`, then retargeted BACK to `main`, where the forged success sat unchallenged on a head whose
# diff against `main` carried a C# file (reproduced as probe PR #703; `created_at == updated_at`
# afterwards proves nothing reclassified). With `edited`, the retarget back re-runs this job — and the
# short-circuit below now re-derives machine-written successes instead of inheriting them, which is
# the half that makes the re-run actually change the answer. The two are one fix; `edited` alone would
# re-run and then bail out on the existing `success`.
#
# BE PRECISE ABOUT WHAT THIS BUYS: detection, not atomicity or ordering. Runs are NOT serialized, so
# the stale run can post `success` AFTER the reclassifying run posts `pending` — restoring the forged
# state with no further event left to correct it — and an already-scheduled auto-merge can fire in the
# green window between them. The `main -> scratch -> main` ABA transition is therefore NARROWED and
# observable, not closed. Tracked as ersatztv#706; do not read this block as claiming otherwise.

# The set is measured, not guessed: across all 11 Renovate PRs this repo has ever had, the
# paths touched were `Directory.Packages.props` (10 of them) and `.config/dotnet-tools.json`
# (1). The npm manifests are deliberately NOT included — see the BOT_MANIFESTS note below.
#
# Deliberately EXCLUDED, with the cost stated: `*.csproj` and any source file. The one
# historical Renovate PR outside the set above is #20, which touched a `.csproj` AND two C#
# files — and received an unattended bot exemption for a source change. Under Central
# Package Management versions live in `Directory.Packages.props`, so a `.csproj` edit
# attributed to Renovate is anomalous by construction. Such a PR is not blocked, it simply
# needs a real verdict, which is the correct handling for a PR carrying source changes.
# NOTE the npm manifests are deliberately ABSENT. An earlier draft included
# `web/package.json` / `web/package-lock.json` "so a first SPA bump cannot deadlock". That was
# a self-inflicted code-execution vector for zero benefit: `renovate.json` sets
# `enabledManagers: ["nuget", "github-actions", "dockerfile"]`, so Renovate does not manage npm
# in this repo at all, while `package.json` carries `scripts` that CI EXECUTES (`npm ci`,
# `npm run build` in docker-build.yml). Exempting it would let a hijacked bot branch run
# arbitrary shell in CI while every path still "looked like a manifest". If npm is ever added
# to enabledManagers, the lockfile may be exemptible but `package.json` is not.

# `.codex/` is listed alongside `.claude/` (ersatztv#711). `.codex/hooks/` is a
# byte-identical mirror of `.claude/hooks/` — including `pretooluse-merge-consent.sh` —
# generated as the Codex-side port of the same enforcement hooks. Without it the rule "a PR
# that can weaken the gate must not exempt itself from the gate" was expressed as a path
# list that had gone incomplete: editing `.claude/hooks/pretooluse-merge-consent.sh`
# correctly voided the exemption while editing its `.codex/` twin did not. Today that is
# LATENT rather than live — `.codex/` is untracked and gitignored, and a PR cannot touch a
# path that is not in the repo — but it becomes live the moment anyone tracks it, which is
# the natural instinct given `.claude/` is tracked. Listed now because the cost is one
# alternation and the failure mode is silent.
#
# The list stays ENUMERATIVE rather than derived (e.g. "any dotted top-level directory

# HOW THE PATH PREDICATES ARE EVALUATED, and why neither obvious spelling is used.
#
# `producer | grep -q…` is FORBIDDEN here: `grep -q` exits at its first match, the producer
# then takes SIGPIPE and exits 141 once the list exceeds the pipe buffer, and under
# `set -o pipefail` the pipeline is a FAILURE even though grep MATCHED — inverting the guard
# for exactly the large PRs that matter. Reproduced with `A.cs` + 1900 docs paths (171KB,
# inside the enumerator's 2000-file cap): `docs_only=yes`, status 141; and a `.gitea/` path
# made `PROTECTED` MISS. That construct predates #698 and was live on `main`.
#
# A here-string (`grep -q… <<< "$files"`) fixes the SIGPIPE but bash materialises a large
# here-string via TEMPORARY STORAGE, so it can fail when the runner's temp space is full or
# unwritable — and because these run inside `if`/`!`, that failure would flip the predicate
# the same way. Trading a buffer bug for an environmental one is not a fix.
#
# So: count with `grep -c`, which DRAINS stdin (no early exit, no SIGPIPE) over an ordinary
# pipe (no temp file), and treat grep's own exit status honestly — `grep -c` exits 1 when the
# count is zero, which is a legitimate answer, while anything >1 is a real error and must FAIL
# THE JOB rather than silently read as "no match". `set -e` would not catch these on its own

# --- The retarget fence (ersatztv#706 race 1) ----------------------------------------
# THE PROBLEM THIS SOLVES. Two `pull_request_target` runs for one PR overlap, and the OLDER
# one can finish LAST — so a run that classified against a base the PR no longer targets can
# post its stale answer over a fresher run's correct one, permanently. Measured on this
# instance rather than assumed: probe PR #722 run 7520 (`opened`) ran to completion 20s AFTER
# run 7521 (`synchronize`) had started.
#
# WHY NOT A CONCURRENCY GROUP, which is the obvious answer and what #706 proposed. It does
# not work here, also measured: with `concurrency: {group: …-${{ pr number }},
# cancel-in-progress: false}` active on an identical probe, runs 7528 and 7529 still ran
# CONCURRENTLY and 7528 ended 36s after 7529 began. Gitea 1.25.4 does auto-cancel superseded
# `push` runs on a branch — a negative control with no `concurrency:` key at all showed that —
# but that behaviour does NOT extend to `pull_request_target`. `cancel-in-progress: true` is
# deliberately untried: cancellation is the one thing this workflow's own header refuses,
# because a cancelled run leaves an EXEMPT PR statusless with nothing left to re-trigger it.
#
# WHY A COUNTER AND NOT THE BRANCH NAME. The attack is an ABA: `main → S → main`. Every
# name-based check reads `main` at both ends and passes, which is exactly how route 1 got a
# forged exemption. Gitea's issue timeline records each retarget as a `change_target_branch`
# event with `old_ref`/`new_ref`; the COUNT of those events is monotonic and cannot alias.
# Verified on the real route-1 reproduction (PR #703: two events, `main → probe698/base-S` at
# 18:17:29 and back at 18:18:31) with a negative control (PR #717, never retargeted: zero).
#
# WHY ABSTAINING IS NOT A STALL — the property the whole design rests on. A retarget always
# fires `edited`, which is in this workflow's `types:` (see the header). So the very event
# that makes this run abstain has already queued a successor whose window opens after it.
# Abstention hands off; it does not drop the PR. The induction terminates when retargeting
# stops, and the last run has a clean window and writes the final answer. This is why the
# fence does not reintroduce the statusless-exempt-PR failure that rules out cancellation:
# it never stops a run from RUNNING, only from WRITING state it knows is stale.
#
# `updated_at` was considered as the key and rejected: it moves for comments and labels,
# which fire none of this workflow's `types:`, so a run could abstain with no successor
# coming — a real stall. The retarget count moves only for the mutation that actually
# invalidates a classification, and that mutation always brings its own re-run.
#
# Completeness is a guard, not an assumption (`ci.paged-endpoint-completeness`): the count is
# trusted ONLY when paging reached a validated EMPTY page. A short page, a non-array body, a
# non-numeric length or the page cap all leave `rt_ok=no`, and an untrusted count is treated

# This short-circuit used to exit on ANY existing `success`, which made an exemption this job
# wrote indistinguishable from a verdict a human wrote. That is what let a forged exemption
# survive: obtained once — via the route-1 retarget race, a sibling workflow holding
# status-write credentials (#697), a direct API call, or inheritance across PRs by sha (#663)
# — it was thereafter accepted unchanged on every run, because the guard exited before it
# looked at the PR, the base, the author or the files.
#
# The guard still exists for its original reason: re-posting `pending` over a real human
# verdict would un-approve a reviewed head and stall the PR. So it discriminates by PROVENANCE.
#
# MEASURED on this instance (Gitea 1.25.4), on the COMBINED endpoint this job reads: a status
# POSTed with a USER credential — how `scripts/post-review-verdict.sh` writes a verdict —
# carries `.creator.login`, while one POSTed by an Actions job with the built-in `GITEA_TOKEN`
# carries `"creator": null`. A real verdict read back `creator=timothy`; this job's own
# exemption read back `creator=null`.
#
# BOTH conditions are required, and the DIRECTION of the test is the point: we short-circuit
# only on something POSITIVELY identified as a human verdict. Anything else, including anything
# we do not recognise, is RE-DERIVED. Written the other way round ("skip if it looks
# machine-written") an unrecognised shape would be trusted — the fail-open this issue is about.
#
# What this does NOT claim: the test asks "was this POSTed by a user credential", NOT "by a
# reviewer". `ETV_STATUS_AUTH` is basic auth, so head-controlled code can POST a success with a
# non-null creator AND an attacker-chosen `Review-verdict:` description, which this guard then
# preserves. That is #697 — provenance, not authentication.

# repair (the human row is below this run's mark) and no log. That fails toward SUCCESS, so it
# was not covered by the "repair fails toward pending" residual; it is the exact outcome this
# whole change exists to prevent, reached through the run overlap this branch itself measured.
#
# THE RULE IS "NEVER REPLACE A SENTINEL WITH A NON-SENTINEL", not "never overwrite it with a
# success". A first draft of this guard tested `state = success`, which is one branch too
# narrow: a run can reach the POST on `state=pending` carrying the GENERIC description — most
# realistically after a transient enumeration failure (`complete != yes`) — and that run
# passes a success-only guard, passes the fence, and overwrites the sentinel with ordinary
# text. The next run then sees no sentinel, re-derives, and posts `success`: the same buried
# human rejection as before, reached in two steps instead of one.
#
# Comparing the DESCRIPTION rather than the state is exactly as precise and strictly more
# general. A sentinel present at the FIRST read forces `desc="$REPAIR_DESC"` (the carry-forward
# branch in the decision above), so this guard cannot fire on the ordinary repaired-head path
# and the fixed point is intact. Any other description alongside `ex_repair=yes` means the
# sentinel arrived DURING this run, whatever this run concluded.

# --- POST-POST VERIFICATION (ersatztv#706 race 2) ------------------------------------
# The last-moment re-read above narrows the window between reading and writing; it cannot
# close it, because Gitea's status API has no conditional write (no ETag, no If-Match, no
# expected-previous-state), so there is no compare-and-set to make the read and the POST one
# operation. A human `failure` landing in that remaining gap is overwritten by the POST above
# — turning an explicit human REJECTION green, which is the worst outcome this gate can
# produce and strictly worse than any stall.
#
# So verify AFTERWARDS and repair in the safe direction. This runs ONLY on the `success`
# path, and that restriction is the point rather than an optimisation: `pending` cannot
# turn a rejection green — it already blocks the merge — so the only write that can cause
# the damage is the exemption `success`.
#
# WHY A DIFFERENT ENDPOINT. Everywhere else this job reads the COMBINED endpoint
# (`/commits/{sha}/status`), which returns the LATEST status per context — and that is now
# OUR success, with the human's row buried underneath it. The combined view is therefore
# structurally incapable of showing the thing being looked for. `/statuses/{sha}` returns one
# row per POST instead. Measured on this instance, the two really do differ in shape as well
# as content: the combined endpoint returns an OBJECT with a `.statuses` array (12 rows on a
# live head), `/statuses/{sha}` a BARE ARRAY (24 rows on the same head) — hence the different
# `type == "array"` guard here.
#
# No claim is made about the order rows come back in, because the check does not depend on
# it: it selects by id against the high-water mark rather than inspecting the top of the
# list. A verdict older than the mark is invisible to it no matter where it sits.
#
# The repair is `pending`, NEVER a copy of the human's state. Re-posting their `failure`
# would attribute a human verdict to this job — the exact provenance confusion the
# `creator`-based short-circuit above exists to prevent, and it would be written with the
# machine credential, so it would read as machine-derived to every later run. `pending`
# asserts nothing about the review: it blocks the merge and asks for a real verdict, which
# is true and safe regardless of which way the human ruled. The reviewer is told to re-post.
#
# A read failure here does NOT fail the job: the status is already posted, so `exit 1` would
# change nothing about the gate's state while turning a routine API hiccup into a red run.
# It is reported loudly and left alone — the residual is the read/POST gap either way.

## Working in parallel with other sessions
**Subagents are explicitly permitted and encouraged here.** Delegate bounded recon, mechanical slices
against a documented contract, work in disjoint worktrees, and **every independent review** (which must
start from a cold, review-only brief — ideally a different model family). Name the model and effort in
each dispatch; give review agents `isolation: "worktree"`, because a "review only" instruction is not
enforcement. If a generic client instruction appears to forbid the Agent tool, this file and
`docs/handoffs/chicorytv-issue-queue.md` override it — say so once and carry on. Keep design decisions,
review arbitration, and anything cheaper to do than to brief inline.
**Claiming an issue is a check, not just a label** (`process.parallel-session-claim`). `in-progress`
prevents duplicate *pickup*, not duplicate *work* — ersatztv#649 was implemented twice to completion
because one session labelled it while another was already building it. Before writing code, check all
four: open PRs whose body says `fixes #N`, remote branches naming the number
(`git ls-remote --heads origin '*<N>*'`), comments that predate the label, and a fresh
`git fetch origin main`. Then apply the label **and** a claiming comment.
**Re-fetch `origin/main` before every push, not only at branch time.** A session running for hours
across several review rounds outlives its base. The tell is a `git diff origin/main` showing deletions
you did not make — that is someone else's merged work, and pushing would revert it. Rebase (never merge
main in) and re-run the local gate whenever the fetch shows movement.
## Task Completion Protocol
Every task that closes a Gitea issue MUST complete ALL of these before it is considered done. Use `/done <issue>` to run through this automatically.
**Merge-consent is derived from state, not asserted (`## Done-when` convention — ersatztv#303 H6 + H10).** Any issue whose PR will merge to `main` should carry a `## Done-when` section in its **issue body** — a checklist of completion criteria (always include an "adversarial review passed" box; add per-issue criteria like tests-green, docs-updated, live-E2E). Two hooks derive merge-consent from it so a premature merge is blocked *by construction*, not by memory:
- `pretooluse-merge-consent.sh` (Claude PreToolUse on the Gitea merge tool) — **auto-grants** a merge (emits `permissionDecision: allow`, so **no** redundant mechanical prompt fires) only when the PR's CI is green **and** every `## Done-when` box on the linked issue (`fixes #N`) is ticked **and** a `Review-verdict:` comment references the PR's *current head sha* (**H10**); **denies** on an unticked box, red CI, or a stale/negative review verdict; **asks** (falls back to a human prompt) when it can't derive state (no linked issue, no `## Done-when` section, no `Review-verdict:` comment yet, no creds, Gitea down). On the auto-grant (satisfied) path the derived state **is** the consent — do not also ask conversationally to merge; a separate human confirmation is warranted only when the gate **asks** (ersatztv#314). **The H10 review-verdict convention**: after an adversarial/Codex review of a PR (or its latest fix commit), run **`scripts/post-review-verdict.sh <pr> <MERGEABLE|APPROVED|BLOCKED|NOT-MERGEABLE> [note]`** — it posts both the `Review-verdict: … @ <head-sha>` comment and the sha-bound `review-verdict/h10` commit status, proving the *latest* commit was reviewed rather than a stale earlier diff (ersatztv#242). Do not hand-write the comment: the **status** is the required check branch protection enforces, and a comment alone leaves it absent.
- **The gate is enforced server-side, per sha (ersatztv#622).** `review-verdict/h10` is a required status check on `main`. Because a commit status belongs to one sha, a commit pushed *after* an auto-merge is scheduled clears it and blocks the merge — closing the hole where `merge_when_checks_succeed` froze consent at scheduling time and Gitea later merged an unreviewed head. Renovate-authored and docs-only PRs are auto-passed by `.gitea/workflows/review-verdict.yml`, **except** when they touch `.claude/`, `.codex/`, `.gitea/`, `.husky/`, `scripts/` or `docker/ci/`. See `docs/ci-cd.md` → Review-verdict gate.
- `pretooluse-merge-consent.sh` (Claude PreToolUse on the Gitea merge tool) — **auto-grants** a merge (emits `permissionDecision: allow`, so **no** redundant mechanical prompt fires) only when the PR's CI is green **and** every `## Done-when` box on the linked issue (`fixes #N`) is ticked **and** a `Review-verdict:` comment references the PR's *current head sha* (**H10**); **denies** on an unticked box, red CI, or a stale/negative review verdict; **asks** (falls back to a human prompt) when it can't derive state (no linked issue, no `## Done-when` section, no `Review-verdict:` comment yet, no creds, Gitea down). On the auto-grant (satisfied) path the derived state **is** the consent — do not also ask conversationally to merge; a separate human confirmation is warranted only when the gate **asks** (ersatztv#314). **The H10 review-verdict convention**: after an adversarial/Codex review of a PR (or its latest fix commit), post a PR comment with a line `Review-verdict: <MERGEABLE|APPROVED|BLOCKED> @ <head-sha>` — this proves the *latest* commit was reviewed, not a stale earlier diff (ersatztv#242).
- `.husky/pre-push``prepush-donewhen.sh` — a fail-open backstop that blocks a direct `git push origin main` whose commits `fix #N` an issue with unticked boxes.
Both need Gitea read creds in the env to enforce (**`ETV_GITEA_BASICAUTH=user:pass`** or `ETV_GITEA_TOKEN`; `ETV_GITEA_URL` overrides the base). Without them the merge hook asks and the push backstop is a no-op — the gate degrades to today's manual confirmation, never a silent pass. Docs-only PRs/pushes are exempt.

`pageNum` clamped via `Math.Max(0, pageNum)`, `pageSize` via `Math.Clamp(pageSize, 1, MaxPageSize)`

input for page math. **`pageNum` is 0-based** across the whole surface (the first page is `0`) and
the offset is always derived from the *clamped* `pageSize`, so an over-large `pageSize` yields
narrower pages — it never widens the offset. Say "0-based" in the description of any paging
parameter you expose, including on wrapper surfaces like the MCP tool catalog: describing it as
1-based makes a caller skip the first page silently, which reads as data loss rather than as an
off-by-one (ersatztv#616). Put that description on the parameter itself with
`[Description("...")]` (`System.ComponentModel`, on the `[FromQuery]` parameter) so it reaches the
generated OpenAPI document — an attribute-free paging parameter is emitted with no description at
all, leaving a REST consumer to infer the base from `default: 0` (ersatztv#633). State the
endpoint's **own** cap, never one global number: the caps differ (100 typical, 200 auto-tune
members, 1000 `search/all-items`). `OpenApiPagingContractTests` pins this and names the expected
set of paged operations, so a new paged endpoint fails until it is added there **with**

### 2a. Flattening a tagged-union selection (read path)
Several DTOs flatten a "exactly one of these navigations is populated" tagged union to a single
`selectedId` + `selectedName` pair (`RerunCollectionResponseModel`, and the playlist-item shape).
Two rules, both learned from #671, where the list endpoint returned a null selection for **every**
row and the detail GET 500'd for two of its media types:
- **One include chain per projected aggregate, shared by every handler that projects it.** Put it in
a `<Aggregate>QueryExtensions` extension method and call it from the list handler *and* the by-id
handler. Exemplars: `RerunCollectionQueryExtensions.IncludeSelectionDetails()`,
`ProgramScheduleItemQueryExtensions.IncludeScheduleItemDetails()`. Two hand-maintained chains
drift, and the one that drifts is usually the paged list, whose rows are individually less
obviously wrong. Applying it before `Skip`/`Take` is fine — EF applies the includes to the paged
subquery, so the cost is bounded by `PageSize`, not by the table.
- **The id and the name must not share a single point of failure.** When both are read off the same
eager-loaded navigation, the id is only ever as available as the name — so an un-included type
doesn't merely render an unlabelled badge, it drops the selected id, and an editor that
round-trips that id silently clears the user's stored selection. Accordingly a media-item
flattening switch never ends in `_ => null`: an unrecognized subtype keeps its id and takes a
conspicuous `[unsupported media type: X]` name. Throwing is the wrong lever — it would fail an
entire paged GET over one unreadable row. The shared switch is
`MediaCollections.Mapper.ProjectMediaItemToViewModel`.
Corollary for the mappers themselves: `MediaItems.Mapper`'s projections are reached from handlers
whose include chains differ, so every metadata navigation is read through `Optional(...).Flatten()`
and degrades to the `"???"` placeholder rather than throwing. A bare `x.Season.Show.ShowMetadata`
inside a projection is a latent 500 on some other caller's GET.
**And it is not only navigations.** `SongMetadata.Artists` is a nullable EF *primitive collection*
(a JSON array in one column), which `FallbackMetadataProvider` leaves unassigned for a song whose
tags failed to read — and `string.Join` throws `ArgumentNullException` on a null sequence, not a
`NullReferenceException`. Adding an include is therefore not automatically safe: it can promote a
latent throw on a previously-unloaded member into a live 500 that fails the whole page. When you
widen an include chain, audit what the newly-reachable projection dereferences.

**Bounded best-effort for list-valued fields (#578)**: `artist` and `album_artist` are backed (wholly
or partly) by `SongMetadata.Artists`/`AlbumArtists`, which EF maps as **primitive collections** — one
JSON array per row in a single column, with no server-side projection on either provider. `album_artist`
therefore no longer 404s, and `artist` now also covers free-text music-video (`MusicVideoArtist`) and
song credits, not only entity artists. Those rows are read by a keyset page whose only condition is the
**cursor** — no residual predicate that could discard a row — and filtered in memory, bounded at 20,000
logical rows per request; so on a larger library the
response may be a bounded subset of the matches — bounded in LOGICAL ROWS, which is not the same as
bounded work or bytes. Say so in the `[EndpointDescription]` of any endpoint that adopts this shape.
Three rules generalize beyond this endpoint.
1. **`LIMIT` bounds the OUTPUT, not the row count, whenever a RESIDUAL predicate is present.** The
distinction is not "predicate vs none" — a keyset cursor is a predicate. It is that a *seekable
predicate on the ordering key* positions the scan and never discards a row, while a *residual*
predicate (`LIKE`, `LOWER`, `IS NOT NULL`) throws away rows the engine already produced, so `LIMIT`
truncates the survivors and says nothing about how many were produced — a query matching nothing
must examine every eligible row before it can return an empty page. To bound rows, drop the residual
predicate, page by row position over the primary key, and filter in memory. This endpoint got it
wrong four times: bounding the result, then candidates returned, then `Id` keyspace width (keyspace
is not rows — one live row at `Id` 20001 behind 20,000 deleted ones reads nothing), before arriving
at "cursor only".
**And scope the resulting claim to LOGICAL ROWS.** It is not bounded physical work: MySQL still
traverses deleted-but-unpurged index records, so deletion history keeps affecting cost, and an
unrestricted `TEXT` column spills to overflow pages so a row count implies no byte or page-read
count. A SQL-string assertion pins none of that — not a plan, not visibility work, not I/O.
2. **A SQL pre-filter under an in-memory exact filter may over-match but must never under-match — and
that licence is void the moment the candidate set is truncated.** Widening the predicate then starves
the budget with rows that cannot match. If you find yourself proving a superset property to keep a
pre-filter honest, consider deleting the pre-filter instead: here it removed a JSON-escaping bug
class, an exhaustive Unicode sweep and an `ESCAPE` portability workaround along with it.
3. **Prefix matching, dedup and ordering must be ordinal, not current-culture** (`OrdinalIgnoreCase`,
`StringComparer.Ordinal`): `UseRequestLocalization` honours `Accept-Language`, so `ToLower()` and the
default linguistic `StartsWith(string)` let a caller change the result by changing a header. **Scope
the claim to the stage that actually holds it** — a value set that a database `LOWER`/`DISTINCT`/
`ORDER BY`/`LIMIT` already filtered and truncated is not ordinal no matter what runs after it, and
saying otherwise in an `[EndpointDescription]` publishes a false contract (ersatztv#668).
Full rationale, the measured transfer cost, the four-attempts table and the rejected
normalized-side-table alternative (ersatztv#669): `api.search-field-values-sources` (supersedes
`api.search-field-values`).

bounded render-time fetch that preceded caching) is in `docs/decisions.md` under
`graphics.channel-logo-caching`, #502 and #511.
**No usable logo means no on-screen bug — from every attachment point (#510).** A `ChannelLogo`
watermark resolves through one shared resolver (`WatermarkSelector.ResolveWatermark`) whether it is
attached via a playout item, the channel, the global setting, **or a deco**. All four agree: an
un-migrated external URL, a missing cached file, and a channel with no logo artwork each render
*without* a bug and log a warning. The selector never hands a dead path or a URL downstream — a dead
local path could otherwise reach ffmpeg as a bare `-i` argument and break the stream, which is worse
than a skipped overlay. (One watermark is built *outside* the selector and is still unchecked: the
song-progress overlay — see #653.)
Before #510 the deco path had its own unchecked copy of that resolution, so the same channel could
disagree with itself about whether a bug rendered based only on how the watermark was attached. The
divergence covered `Custom` and `Resource` image sources too, not just `ChannelLogo`.
That change switched off one thing that *did* work: a channel with **no** logo artwork used to get a
generated-initials nameplate (`/iptv/logos/gen`, drawn by `ChannelLogoGenerator`) when — and only
when — the watermark came from a deco. It is now off everywhere, because serving it means an HTTP
fetch inside stream startup, exactly what `graphics.channel-logo-caching` (#525) removed for logos,
and because `ChannelLogoGenerator.GenerateChannelLogoUrl()` hardcodes `localhost` (issue #1, closed
as a topology problem without removing the hardcode). Reviving it properly means generating the image
into the image cache so it resolves to a local path — tracked as **#652**; the rationale is in
`ffmpeg.watermark-resolution-unified`.
Note: `ChannelLogoGenerator.GenerateChannelLogoUrl()` hardcodes `localhost` for watermark logo
fetching — see issue #1 for details.

2. Confirm every record already classified `superseded`/`retired` actually lives under
`docs/decisions/archive/` (the validator fails this, but eyeball it at the boundary too).
3. Regenerate the active catalog: `PYTHONPATH=. python3 scripts/build_decisions_catalog.py` and
commit any drift.
4. Read the corpus size signals. Since **ersatztv#620** these are two separate things:
- a **per-record prose ceiling** (`decisions_validate.py --record-ceiling <n>`, default **60**)
— a **non-blocking `::warning::`** naming every record over it. This is the actionable signal:
it points at a file. The 60 is derived from the distribution, not picked as a round number.
Its **calibration is guarded in two pieces of different robustness** (ersatztv#688), because
four earlier single-assertion versions all failed — the first two by being vacuous or
accepting an absurd ceiling, the last two by ratcheting:
- **blocking** (`script-tests`) — only the coarse property that the ceiling flags a
**meaningful minority** of records (`0.02 <= fraction_over <= 0.25`). One record moves a
fraction by at most 1/N, so no SINGLE ordinary addition can cross it. This is measured
headroom, not immunity: from today's 18/183 it takes 38 consecutive over-ceiling additions to
breach the cap, 718 short ones to dilute below the floor, or — the tightest arm —
consolidating 15 of the 18 offenders away. The floor is
a fraction rather than "at least one record", which would accept any ceiling up to 229 on the
live corpus; as a fraction the accepted range is 43..180.
- **reported, never asserted against the LIVE corpus** — the fine claim that the ceiling sits
between the **90th and 95th percentile**, i.e. at the tail boundary. `main()` prints a
`::notice::` when it drifts; the tests assert it only on distributions they own.
It is an order statistic over a sparse distribution, so a single new record could move p90 by
21 lines and red the blocking job for whoever wrote it; a ceiling going out of date is
the passage of corpus growth, not a defect in the commit under test, so it is treated like
`stale-after`. Re-derive the constant when the notice says so.
- the **aggregate prose total**, printed every run as an unthresholded `::notice::` **trend**.
It has no pass/fail. A total over a monotonically growing corpus can only ratchet: the old
4800→5600 budget went quiet at 5228 after #610 changed the metric and was back over at 5658
**three and a half hours later the same evening**, with nobody consolidating anything — the
"permanently red = no signal" failure, not in slow motion at all. It reports record prose and
non-record scaffolding separately, because they are not the same unit. The generated catalog is no longer counted at all — it
gains one row per record and cannot be consolidated away.
**Being listed by the ceiling is an invitation to check for redundancy, not an instruction to
cut.** A long record that is entirely distinct findings is a legitimate decline — say so in the
record and move on. (`--budget` is still accepted and ignored, so old invocations keep working.)
4. Check the aggregate active-corpus budget (`decisions_validate.py --budget <n>`, default **4800**
lines across `docs/decisions.md` + topic files + the catalog — replaces the old single-file
1800-line floor). **Re-baselined 2026-07-21 (#520)**: the corpus is now fully migrated at
~4366 lines; 4800 gives headroom so the warning fires on real future growth, not on the expected
post-migration size. Going over budget is a **non-blocking warning** (`::warning::` to stderr,
not a validator error) — a ratchet/reminder to extract a new topic file or archive more history,
not a release gate.
5. Report the remaining `legacy-unmigrated` count (the validator prints it as a `::notice::`) so the
backlog is visible, even though it isn't required to hit zero before a release.

Runs the repository's Python test suite: `PYTHONPATH=. python3 -m pytest scripts/tests -q`
(~190 tests at time of writing, ~10s; the suite grows, so treat the figure as indicative). It covers the decision-corpus parser/validator/catalog builder, the ersatztv#610
migration-equivalence harness, the merge-consent exemption logic and the ersatztv#622 review-verdict
poster.
**Until ersatztv#631, nothing ran these tests.** No workflow and no Husky hook invoked `pytest`.
`decisions-guard` executes `decisions_validate.py` and `build_decisions_catalog.py` directly — it
exercises that *code* but never its *tests* — and the `test` job is `dotnet test` only. The suite
guarding our merge-gating machinery was therefore local-only, and a test added "for CI enforcement"
was decorative.
**Why it is its own job, not a step inside `decisions-guard`.** `decisions-guard` is covered by the
standing `ci.decisions-lifecycle-flake` rule: a lone `decisions lifecycle` red is a known infra
flake and sessions are instructed *not to investigate it*. Adding the suite there would make a
genuine pytest regression surface as precisely the red everyone is told to wave through — the same
"reports success while doing nothing" failure mode ersatztv#631 exists to close. A distinct job
name keeps a real failure unambiguous.
**Why it runs unconditionally** rather than behind a `scripts/**` path filter: the suite's true
input set spans more than one directory — `test_post_review_verdict.py` and
`test_merge_consent_exemption.py` execute the real `scripts/post-review-verdict.sh` and
`.claude/hooks/pretooluse-merge-consent.sh` — so a `scripts/**` filter would silently miss a
`.claude/hooks/**` edit. At ~10s, a filter buys nothing but drift.
**Dependencies: `pytest` and `pyyaml`** — the complete third-party set across `scripts/`, established
by an AST import scan rather than by reading the files that looked relevant. PyYAML does **not**
contradict the dependency-free decisions *read* path: `decisions_lib._read_frontmatter` is
hand-written exactly so validation runs where nothing is installed, but the one-shot *write* path
`migrate_decisions_split.py` uses PyYAML by design, and `test_migration_equivalence.py` imports that
module. (The first cut of this job claimed "pure stdlib + pytest", passed locally on a machine that
happened to have PyYAML installed, and went red in CI on a `ModuleNotFoundError` at collection —
which is itself a small demonstration of why the suite needed to run in CI at all.) Like the other
`small`-lane Python jobs it adds `actions/setup-python@v5` first. Checkout is at default depth: every `git` call in the suite runs
against a temp repo it creates itself, never this repository's history.
Two **preflight steps** run before the suite. The first asserts `git` is on PATH; the second runs
`scripts/jq-preflight.sh --expect 1.6`, which checks jq's **version**, not merely its presence (see
"The jq contract" below). Those two tests exec the real shell scripts, which shell out to `jq` ~26
times; the tests shim `curl` on PATH but not `jq`, so a runner image without it would surface as ~20
opaque assertion failures instead of one diagnosis. Both deliberately **check** rather than install —
ersatztv#390 removed run-time `apt-get` from CI; the fix for a genuine miss is to bake the tool into
the runner image.
### The jq contract (ersatztv#648)
> Full rationale: `docs/decisions/records/ci/jq-version-contract.md`.
Every shell gate in this repo — `decisions-guard`, `script-tests`'s own harness,
`pretooluse-merge-consent.sh`, `review-verdict.yml`, `scripts/pr-changed-files.sh` — is authored and
tested on a developer Mac shipping **jq 1.8.x**. The CI runner ships **jq 1.6**. Author to the
1.6-compatible subset; three concrete constructs diverge between the two and each one produced a real
bug when it hit CI for the first time:
- **`jq -e` over EMPTY input.** Exits 4 on jq >= 1.7, but **0** on jq 1.6. A guard that infers
"transport failure" from that exit status silently passes an empty/failed page on 1.6.
- **`` contains("\u0000") `` (or any NUL literal).** The NUL escape truncates to `""` on jq 1.6, so
the containment test is vacuously true for **every** string, not just ones containing a NUL. Use
`explode | index(0)` instead — it is version-stable.
- **Parse-error exit code.** `jq empty` exits 5 on jq >= 1.7 but **4** on jq 1.6 — the same code 1.6
uses for "no output produced". Reading that exit code as a specific failure mode conflates garbage
input with an empty-but-valid response.
`scripts/jq-preflight.sh` makes the running version **observable** in every gate job's log (it prints
the parsed version and asserts a floor of 1.6) so a future divergence can be diagnosed from the log
alone instead of guessing at the runner image.
**Pin vs floor is deliberately asymmetric.** `scripts/jq-preflight.sh --expect 1.6` additionally pins
the version and fails loudly if it drifts, but that mode is used **only** by `script-tests`
(`.gitea/workflows/pr-checks.yml`) — advisory, not a required check. `review-verdict.yml` runs the
no-args floor-only mode and never pins, because that workflow writes `review-verdict/h10`, the
branch-protection-**required** status check on `main`: a hard pin there would mean the day the
runner's jq version changes (a base-image bump, a host reimage — nothing this repo controls), every
PR on `main` stops merging until someone notices and re-pins. A required merge gate cannot fail
because an upstream package manager did its job. The narrower pin on `script-tests` exists precisely
because that job is the suite's only 1.6 coverage — if the runner's jq silently changed, that coverage
would evaporate with no signal, so failing loudly there forces a human decision instead.
Baking a pinned jq into `docker/ci/Dockerfile` was considered and rejected: `review-verdict.yml` is
`runs-on: small` with no toolchain-image pin, and per `ci.small-lane-git-only` the small lane is
git-only, so it gets the **host's** jq regardless of what the toolchain image contains — a pin in the
image provably cannot reach the gate that broke. This was checked against the running binary, not
assumed.

`defaults: run: shell: bash` because `ci-image-pin` uses `mapfile`/`set -o pipefail`.
## Review-verdict gate (`review-verdict/h10`, required — `.gitea/workflows/review-verdict.yml`)
**A required status check named `review-verdict/h10`, written per-sha, is what actually stops an
unreviewed commit from merging** (ersatztv#622). It is not produced by a job's success/failure; it
is a commit status that `scripts/post-review-verdict.sh` POSTs onto one specific sha.
**The hole it closes.** `pretooluse-merge-consent.sh` proves its three consent conditions at the
moment the merge tool is called. Pass `merge_when_checks_succeed=true` and Gitea performs the merge
*later*, against whatever head is green then — while the Done-when and review-verdict checks were
proven against the head at **scheduling** time. Every commit pushed in between merges unreviewed.
This was demonstrated as a controlled A/B rather than inferred (`ci/fake` stands in for a slow CI
check so Gitea waits, as it really does): review head A → post its verdict → schedule auto-merge →
push an unreviewed commit B → CI greens on B. **Without** the required verdict context, B merged.
**With** it, the same sequence was refused, and merged only once B itself was reviewed.
Note the motivating anecdote in ersatztv#622 — "PR #619 merged 263 insertions with no verdict" —
is **wrong**: #619 does carry `Review-verdict: MERGEABLE @ 02c82b35`, posted six seconds before the
merge, explicitly re-reviewing the follow-up commits. It was filed from an API read that lagged.
The gap is real anyway, and structural: nothing *forced* that re-review inside the 45-minute window
where Gitea would have merged whatever went green. This turns diligence into construction.
**Why a commit status fixes it and a smarter hook cannot.** A status belongs to exactly one sha, so
a new commit *cannot inherit it*: the required context is simply absent on the new head, Gitea's
merge-requirement check reads that as not-passing, and the scheduled auto-merge refuses to fire.
The invariant self-invalidates — nothing has to notice the push. It also covers merge paths the
hook never sees (Gitea UI, raw API, another agent's session).
**Posting a verdict.** After reviewing a PR's *current* head:
```bash
ETV_GITEA_BASICAUTH=user:pass scripts/post-review-verdict.sh <pr> MERGEABLE [note...]
```
That posts both the `Review-verdict: … @ <sha>` comment (the human-readable artifact, and the
hook's condition (c)) and the `review-verdict/h10` status on the same sha. `BLOCKED` /
`NOT-MERGEABLE` post a `failure` status instead. The script re-reads the head after commenting: if
a commit landed mid-flight it writes **no** status and exits non-zero rather than retargeting your
verdict at a commit you never read.
The status description also records the base branch — `Review-verdict: MERGEABLE @ abc1234 (base:
main)` — and the merge-consent hook denies when that no longer matches the PR's live `base.ref`
(ersatztv#632). Retargeting a PR changes the effective diff without moving the head sha, so the
per-sha binding alone cannot see it. This is **detection on the hook path only**: a commit status
carries no base of its own, so a merge driven through the Gitea UI or API is unaffected. The
comparator is the base *branch*, never its tip sha — a base that merely advances is ordinary churn,
and comparing tips would invalidate every open verdict on every unrelated merge to `main`.
**Exemptions** are handled by `review-verdict.yml` on every `pull_request_target` event, which posts the
status as `success` for **Renovate-authored** PRs (it uses `platformAutomerge: true`, so a required
verdict with no exemption would stall every dependency bump) and for **docs-only** PRs, and as
`pending` for everything else so the block has a visible reason. Both exemptions are **void when the
PR touches `.claude/`, `.codex/`, `.gitea/`, `.husky/`, `scripts/` or `docker/ci/`** — a PR that can weaken the
gate must not be able to exempt itself from the gate. That includes Renovate's `docker/ci` base
bumps, which already need the manual publish-then-pin two-step anyway.
The Renovate exemption additionally requires **every** changed path to be a dependency manifest —
`Directory.Packages.props` or `.config/dotnet-tools.json`, and only those (ersatztv#698). The npm
manifests are deliberately excluded: `renovate.json` enables only `nuget`/`github-actions`/`dockerfile`,
so npm is unmanaged here, while `package.json` `scripts` are executed by CI (`npm ci`, `npm run build`)
— exempting it would put a code-execution path inside the allow-list for no benefit. An author match alone is not enough, because `pull_request.user.login` is the PR's
*immutable creator* while its head is not: pushing application code onto an open Renovate branch
leaves the PR still "authored by renovate" and, previously, still exempt. A Renovate PR touching
anything else — a `.csproj`, a source file — is not blocked, it just needs a real verdict. **If a
dependency PR is unexpectedly asking for a verdict, this is why**; the status description says so.
The two exemptions are evaluated as **independent predicates**, never as an `elif` chain: a Renovate
PR touching only `docs/` still gets the docs-only exemption on its own merits.
An existing `review-verdict/h10` on the head is **only** left alone when it is positively identifiable
as a human verdict — a non-null `.creator.login` **and** a `Review-verdict:` description, which is what
`post-review-verdict.sh` writes. Anything else, including any shape the workflow does not recognise, is
**re-derived** rather than inherited. (Measured: a status POSTed with a user credential carries a
creator; one POSTed by an Actions job carries `"creator": null`.) Without this, an exemption obtained
once was accepted unchanged on every later run. This is a *provenance* check, not an authentication
one — someone who can POST statuses directly can still impersonate a verdict, which is ersatztv#697.
Deciding either exemption requires the PR's **complete** changed-file list, which the workflow does
not compute itself: it calls `scripts/pr-changed-files.sh`, the single shared implementation also
used by the advisory hook `.claude/hooks/pretooluse-merge-consent.sh` (ersatztv#649). The workflow
reads that script's **exit status** — a non-zero exit means "could not tell" and withholds the
exemption; its stdout is meaningless on any failure path and is never consumed.
**Never write a classification guard as `producer | grep -q…` here.** Under `set -o pipefail`, `grep -q`
exits at its first match, the producer takes SIGPIPE (141), and a MATCH is reported as a failed
pipeline — inverting the guard for any PR whose path list exceeds the pipe buffer. That let a large PR
be classified docs-only, and let one editing `.gitea/` skip the protected-path check entirely. A
here-string is **also** wrong (bash spills a large one to temp storage, which fails the same way when
temp is full). **Count** instead — `grep -c` drains stdin over an ordinary pipe — evaluate the counts
once at top level rather than inline in an `if`, and fail closed on a non-numeric result. Full detail:
`ci.grep-q-pipefail-inversion`.
That script takes the expected base branch as a **required 5th argument** and refuses to enumerate when
the PR's live base does not match it, checked both before and after paging (ersatztv#698).
`/pulls/{n}/files` diffs against the PR's *live* base, so retargeting changes the answer without moving
the head sha — a PR opened into `main` and retargeted mid-run was granted a docs-only exemption while
its diff against `main` carried a C# file. The workflow passes the base from the `pull_request_target`
payload, which a retarget cannot rewrite, and `edited` is in `types:` so a retarget reclassifies.
`edited` gives **detection, not atomicity**: runs are not serialized, so a stale run could still post
`success` after the reclassifying run posted `pending`.
**That residual is now fenced (ersatztv#706).** Runs are still not serialized — instead a run that was
overtaken *declines to write*. The job counts `change_target_branch` events on the PR's issue timeline
at start and again immediately before its POST, and posts **nothing** if the count moved. The count is
the key precisely because the branch *name* is ABA-vulnerable: `main → scratch → main` reads `main` at
both ends, which is how the forged exemption was obtained in the first place. Abstaining never strands
a PR, because every retarget fires `edited` — the event that makes one run abstain has already queued
its successor.
If the count can't be established (unreadable timeline, paging that never reached a validated empty
page), only the exemption `success` is withheld; `pending` still posts, since `pending` cannot turn an
unreviewed head green and withholding it would strand ordinary PRs for nothing. **If an exempt PR is
unexpectedly missing its status after a retarget, this is why** — the job log names the counts.
Worth knowing before reaching for the obvious alternative: **a concurrency group does not work here**,
measured rather than assumed. Gitea 1.25.4 auto-cancels superseded `push` runs on a branch, but *not*
`pull_request_target` runs — two runs for one PR genuinely overlap, and adding
`concurrency: {…, cancel-in-progress: false}` changed nothing (probe runs still overlapped by 36s).
`cancel-in-progress: true` is deliberately untried, because a cancelled run leaves an exempt PR
statusless with nothing left to re-trigger it. Full measurements and the two surviving residuals:
`ci.verdict-write-retarget-fence`.
Separately, after posting an exemption `success` the job re-reads the per-POST status history and, if
a human `Review-verdict:` row appeared during the write window, overwrites its own status with
`pending` and logs an error — so a human `BLOCKED` can never be silently turned green. The repair is
`pending`, never a copy of the human's verdict, which would attribute a human decision to the job.
Three properties of this workflow are security-relevant and are **structurally** asserted by tests in
`scripts/tests/test_pr_changed_files.py` — those tests pin the workflow's shape, which is not the same
as establishing that the gate cannot be forged (see the residual below, and ersatztv#697/#698):
- **The trigger is `pull_request_target`, scoped to `branches: [main]`** — never plain
`pull_request` (ersatztv#672). Gitea resolves a `pull_request` workflow *definition* from the PR's
own head, so under that trigger a PR editing `review-verdict.yml` ran its own rewritten copy and
could post `review-verdict/h10=success` for itself. The base-ref checkout below binds the scripts
this job runs; only the trigger binds the definition. The `branches` filter is half the fix, not a
refinement of it: base resolution means the *base branch* supplies the gate, so an unfiltered
trigger merely moves the rewrite to an attacker-pushed base — and a status forged there is
inherited by any later PR carrying the same head sha (ersatztv#663). `pull_request_target` is safe
here **only** because this job never checks out or executes head-supplied code. Verified on this
instance with four scratch PRs rather than inferred from GitHub; full rationale in
`docs/decisions/records/ci/gate-trigger-base-resolved.md`. **This closes the rewrite route through
this workflow, not the class:** `docker-build.yml` is also head-resolved and its `ETV_STATUS_AUTH`
credentials can write statuses, so it can still forge `review-verdict/h10` — it must stay on
`pull_request` because it builds the PR's code, so it needs a read-only status identity instead
(ersatztv#697) — and the inventory is every workflow, not that one, because Gitea injects a
write-capable `GITEA_TOKEN` into every job and branch protection binds the *context*, not its
issuer. The exemption path has separate defects of its own (ersatztv#698). One operational
consequence of the trigger change: a PR whose base is not `main` now gets **no**
`review-verdict/h10` at all. That is fail-closed. `edited` **is** now among the trigger's `types`
(ersatztv#698), so a PR retargeted onto `main` reclassifies instead of staying statusless until its
next push — but note that only gives *detection*: runs are not serialized, so a stale run can still
post `success` after the reclassifying run posts `pending` (ersatztv#706).
- **The checkout takes the PR's BASE ref**, `ref: ${{ github.event.pull_request.base.sha }}` with
`persist-credentials: false` — never the head. This job judges the PR, so the PR must not supply
the code that judges it; a head checkout would let a PR edit the enumeration to return an empty
list and exempt itself.
- **`scripts/jq-preflight.sh` runs in floor-only mode**, never `--expect`. This job writes a
branch-protection-**required** status, so an exact version pin would turn any jq upgrade on the
runner into a repo-wide merge deadlock.
A PR whose base predates ersatztv#658 has no such script on its base ref; that case posts `pending`
with the reason rather than dying with no status at all.
⚠️ **Changing `review-verdict.yml` itself: it is not exercised by its own PR.** Base resolution cuts
both ways — the PR editing this workflow runs the version already on `main`, so an edit goes live
**only on merge**, repo-wide, having never run. A broken edit merges green and then breaks the gate
for every subsequent PR, and the PR that would repair it is gated by the same broken workflow. Do not
trust the editing PR's own checks. Verify the way ersatztv#672 did:
1. Push a scratch **base** branch carrying the candidate workflow.
2. Open a throwaway PR from a scratch head *into that base*, so the candidate is the definition that
runs. Have it post a **probe-named** context (e.g. `review-verdict/h10-PROBE`), never the real
`review-verdict/h10` — a probe must not be able to forge the gate it is testing.
3. Read the resulting commit statuses to see which definition actually ran, then delete both
branches.
The same shape is what makes a `branches:`/`types:` change verifiable at all, since neither can be
observed from the editing PR.
It lives in its **own workflow file** on purpose: `pr-checks.yml` sets `cancel-in-progress: true`,
and a cancelled run there would leave an exempt PR with no status and no further push to
re-trigger it. Its own job context (`Review verdict / Set review-verdict status`) is **not** the
required check — a workflow must not satisfy the gate merely by running successfully.
Full rationale: `docs/decisions/records/release/verdict-status-check.md` and
`docs/decisions/records/ci/shared-pr-file-enumeration.md`.
a **required** check — branch protection requires only `Build & test (.NET)` and `EF migration
integrity` — so relocating them (their status-context prefix changes from `Build ErsatzTV Image /
` to `PR Gates / …`) does not affect merges. The file declares `defaults: run: shell: bash`
because `ci-image-pin` uses `mapfile`/`set -o pipefail`.

The FINAL filter, dedup and ordering applied to the response are ORDINAL (`OrdinalIgnoreCase` / `StringComparer.Ordinal`), never current-culture, because `UseRequestLocalization` makes the culture caller-controlled — scoped to the in-memory stages on purpose: a field sourced by a plain EF query is filtered and truncated by the DATABASE collation first (SQLite's `LOWER()` is ASCII-only), which ordinal semantics downstream cannot undo (ersatztv#668). A field whose values live in an EF **primitive collection** (one JSON array per row in a single column: `SongMetadata.Artists`, `SongMetadata.AlbumArtists`) is served, not 404'd, as bounded best-effort, and its rows are read by a keyset page carrying **NO RESIDUAL predicate**`SELECT Id, <col> AS Payload FROM SongMetadata WHERE Id > @AfterId ORDER BY Id LIMIT @Batch`, no `LIKE`, no `LOWER`, not even `IS NOT NULL`. The cursor is itself a predicate, but a SEEKABLE one on the ordering key: it positions the scan and never discards a row. A RESIDUAL predicate discards rows the engine already produced, and `LIMIT` truncates only the survivors — so with one present it bounds the OUTPUT rather than the row count. All selectivity is in memory. The guarantee is scoped: **at most 20,000 LOGICAL rows returned/materialized and at most 10 round trips (11 for `artist`)** — NOT bounded physical work and NOT bounded bytes, because MySQL traverses deleted-but-unpurged index records and the `TEXT`/`longtext` payload width is unrestricted. The walk pages 2,000 rows at a time, stopping on the first of enough distinct matches, a short page, or the ceiling. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/api/search-field-values-sources.md) |
| `api.search-field-values-unicode-fold` | The EF-sourced facet fields (`genre`, `show_genre`, `studio`, `director`, `writer`, `actor`, `tag`, `network`, `collection`, `video_codec`, `album`, and `artist`'s entity half) reach stored values whose prefix carries an uppercase non-ASCII character, on BOTH providers, with no row budget and no accepted loss. The defect was SQLite-only and ONE-SIDED: SQLite's `LOWER()` folds ASCII only (`lower('Édith')` is `'Édith'` unchanged), so the predicate UNDER-matched, which no later stage can repair. MySQL was already correct — its `LOWER()` is Unicode-aware, so `LOWER('Édith')` really is `'édith'` and the existing predicate reaches the row unaided. The fix is a SECOND, ADDITIVE query taken only when `isSqlite && q contains a non-ASCII character`: raw Dapper SQL `SELECT DISTINCT <col> AS Value FROM <table> WHERE [<discriminator> AND] etv_upper(<col>) LIKE @Pattern ESCAPE '\' ORDER BY <col> LIMIT @Limit`, where `etv_upper` is a `SqliteConnection.CreateFunction` scalar implementing `ToUpperInvariant`. Every other case — all-ASCII `q`, and MySQL for all `q` — runs today's EF query BYTE-IDENTICALLY. Keeping selectivity in SQL here is NOT the refuted family from `api.search-field-values-sources`: those four attempts bounded a walk around a predicate that could not be made correct over JSON escape text, whereas this is a correct fold on a plain column in an ordinary `LIMIT`ed query. It narrows that record's "Known limitation inherited, not introduced" clause; everything else it settles still holds. | 2026-07-27 | [link](records/api/search-field-values-unicode-fold.md) |

| `api.selection-projection-include-chain` | Every handler that projects an aggregate carrying a tagged-union selection loads it through ONE shared `<Aggregate>QueryExtensions` include chain — `RerunCollectionQueryExtensions.IncludeSelectionDetails()`, joining the existing `ProgramScheduleItemQueryExtensions.IncludeScheduleItemDetails()` — called by the paged-list handler and the by-id handler alike, so the two cannot drift. The media-item flattening switch is likewise ONE shared helper, `MediaCollections.Mapper.ProjectMediaItemToViewModel`, covering all ten selectable media types including `RemoteStream`, whose named projection is `MediaItems.Mapper.ProjectToNamedViewModel` (it cannot be an overload of `ProjectToViewModel(RemoteStream)`, which already exists returning the unrelated `RemoteStreamViewModel`; C# will not overload on return type). That switch NEVER ends in `_ => null`: a null MediaItem is the legitimate not-a-media-item case, while an unrecognized non-null subtype keeps its id and takes a conspicuous `[unsupported media type: X]` name. Fail-soft is deliberate — throwing would fail an entire paged GET over one unreadable row. Finally, every metadata navigation inside `MediaItems.Mapper` is read through `Optional(...).Flatten()` and degrades to the `"???"` placeholder, because those projections are reached from handlers whose include chains differ and a bare `x.Season.Show.ShowMetadata` is a latent 500 on some other caller GET. | 2026-07-28 | [link](records/api/selection-projection-include-chain.md) |
| `api.versioning-v1` | The entire `/api` surface is versioned to `/api/v1` uniformly (no unversioned corner); legacy unversioned callers are rewritten in-pipeline (not redirected) with Deprecation/Link/Sunset headers, and post-freeze `/api/v1` is additive-only — a breaking change requires `/api/v2`. | 2026-07-13 | [link](records/api/versioning-v1.md) |
| `blazor.rollback-tag` | The commit immediately preceding the Blazor-removal merge is tagged `blazor-final` (not a `v*` tag, so it doesn't trigger a prod release build) as the documented rollback/restore path. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/blazor/rollback-tag.md) |
| `blazor.ui-removed` | The legacy Blazor Server UI (`Pages/`, `Shared/`, `ViewModels/`, `Validators/`, MudBlazor + 8 other packages, Blazor Startup wiring) is fully deleted now that the SPA has parity; the legacy `MapWhen` branch is kept only for controllers/docs/OpenAPI/`LegacyUiRedirects`, and the catch-all fallback 302s any unmatched non-api/artwork/docs/openapi path to `/app`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/blazor/ui-removed.md) |
| `channel.origin-marker` | A new `Channel.Origin` (`ChannelOrigin` enum — `Unknown`/`UserCreated`/`AutoTuned`) records how a channel row was created and is stamped exactly once at insert (`AutoTuned` in `CreateChannelFromLineupHandler`, `UserCreated` in `CreateChannelHandler`), and is never mutated on a later edit. It is surfaced as a raw `origin` field on `ChannelResponseModel`; the SPA badges only `AutoTuned`. Rows predating the column read `Unknown` — provenance is **not** back-filled. | 2026-07-23 | [link](records/channel/origin-marker.md) |
| `ci.batch-pushes-no-cancel-route` | Hold review fixes, doc corrections and format fixes locally and push **once** — a superseded run cannot be cancelled from the agent side and holds a runner slot until it finishes. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ci/batch-pushes-no-cancel-route.md) |
| `ci.build-once-rejected` | CI build-once (a shared compile artifact across jobs) was implemented, measured, and rejected for a 40-85% wall-clock regression; keep the #420 cross-run tree-identity skip instead. | 2026-07-18 | [link](records/ci/build-once-rejected.md) |
| `ci.cancelled-is-not-a-verdict` | Treat a `cancelled` conclusion as "no verdict" — never as pass or fail — and report FAILED and CANCELLED counts separately in any CI monitor. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ci/cancelled-is-not-a-verdict.md) |
| `ci.decisions-edit-trailer` | The body-diff exemption is armed by an affirmative `Decisions-Edit:` **git trailer** (`yes`/`true`/`1`, case-insensitive, read with `unfold`) on some NON-MERGE commit in the PR's merge-base range — never by a substring search over the message text. A non-affirmative value (`no`) does not arm it, the retired `[decisions-edit]` substring arms nothing (the validator emits a `::warning::` nudge when it sees one without a trailer), and a git error leaves the guard ON. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/ci/decisions-edit-trailer.md) |
| `ci.decisions-lifecycle-flake` | When `decisions lifecycle` is the **only** red job, do not investigate and do not create a new run to clear it — no rebase, no `--amend`, no no-op push; the operator reruns that single job from the Gitea UI. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ci/decisions-lifecycle-flake.md) |
| `ci.docs-only-detect-shallow-safe` | The docs-only detect script must diff against `FETCH_HEAD` (always resolves after `git fetch`, even shallow) using a two-dot tree diff — not `origin/<base>` with three-dot — because a `fetch-depth: 1` shallow clone has no remote-tracking ref and no merge-base, which silently fails the original detect into `docs_only=false` (full matrix, no functional error). A CI-behavior change must be verified by measuring the effect (job durations), not just a green check. | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/ci/docs-only-detect-shallow-safe.md) |
| `ci.docs-only-skip-steps` | A docs-only change must still run every required job (`test`, `migrations`) so their commit-status contexts always report; each heavy job runs `scripts/ci-detect-docs-only.sh` first and gates its real STEPS on `if: steps.detect.outputs.docs_only != 'true'`, never `if:`-skips the whole job (an `if:`-skipped job reports `skipped`, not `success`, which branch protection may never unblock on). Detection biases toward running more on any doubt. | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/ci/docs-only-skip-steps.md) |
| `ci.exemption-provenance` | The three inputs the exemption decision rests on must each be bound to something the judged PR cannot mutate. (1) BASE — `scripts/pr-changed-files.sh` takes the expected base BRANCH as a REQUIRED 5th argument and re-reads it before and after paging, because `/pulls/{n}/files` diffs against the PR's live base and retargeting moves the answer without moving the head sha; the workflow passes `github.event.pull_request.base.ref` from the `pull_request_target` payload, which a retarget cannot rewrite. (2) BOT EXEMPTION — an author match is necessary but never sufficient: `pull_request.user.login` is the PR's immutable CREATOR while its head is not, so the exemption additionally requires EVERY changed path to be a dependency manifest (`Directory.Packages.props` or `.config/dotnet-tools.json`, and ONLY those — the npm manifests are excluded because `package.json` `scripts` are executed by CI). (3) INHERITED SUCCESS — the never-overwrite short-circuit fires only for a status POSITIVELY identified as a human verdict for THIS base, meaning a non-null `.creator.login` AND a `Review-verdict:` description AND, when that description records a base (`(base: …)`, `release.verdict-status-check`), a base matching the PR's — tested by requiring the description to END with the exact literal `(base: <base>)` and to contain exactly ONE such marker, never by extracting a value (see below); a present-but-different base is rejected, an absent one is not, since verdicts predating that convention carry none; every other shape, including any unrecognised one, is re-derived rather than trusted. The bot and docs-only exemptions are evaluated as INDEPENDENT predicates and the decision made afterwards, never as an `elif` chain. `edited` is in the workflow's `types:` so a retarget reclassifies — which gives DETECTION, not atomicity: status writes are not serialized, so a stale run can still post over a fresher one. That residual is now FENCED rather than merely tracked — the job refuses to write at all if the PR's timeline retarget COUNT moved while it was classifying (`ci.verdict-write-retarget-fence`, #706) — leaving only the sub-round-trip window that no API without compare-and-set can close. The PROTECTED path list additionally covers `.codex/` (#711), which mirrors `.claude/hooks/` byte for byte including the merge-consent hook — latent while that directory is untracked, live the moment it is tracked; the list stays ENUMERATIVE rather than derived, because a derived rule would have to be evaluated against the very file list being classified. Path predicates are evaluated by COUNTING with `grep -c`, never `\| grep -q` (SIGPIPE inversion) and never a here-string (temp-space failure) — see `ci.grep-q-pipefail-inversion`. | 2026-07-29 | [link](records/ci/exemption-provenance.md) |
| `ci.format-gate-folder-mode` | The blocking `format` CI job (and matching pre-commit hook) runs `dotnet format whitespace . --folder --include <files>` instead of loading the full MSBuild/Roslyn solution, cutting the gate from ~480s to ~0.5s with unchanged whitespace/charset coverage. | 2026-07-19 | [link](records/ci/format-gate-folder-mode.md) |
| `ci.functional-e2e-harness` | The `functional-e2e` CI job boots the PR's own code from source via `dotnet run` (`scripts/e2e-local.sh`) and runs deterministic assertions (`scripts/e2e-functional.sh`) as an advisory (non-blocking) job, not a `build` dependency or required check. Originally curl-only; since #445 the same job carries a second, headless-browser step for the contracts curl cannot express — see `ci.ui-e2e-harness`. | 2026-07-16 | [link](records/ci/functional-e2e-harness.md) |
| `ci.gate-trigger-base-resolved` | The workflow that writes the branch-protection-required `review-verdict/h10` status triggers on `pull_request_target` with `branches: [main]`, never on plain `pull_request`. Gitea resolves a `pull_request` workflow DEFINITION from the PR's own head commit, so under that trigger a PR editing `.gitea/workflows/review-verdict.yml` ran its own rewritten copy and could post `h10=success` for itself; `pull_request_target` resolves the definition from the base instead. The `branches: [main]` filter is part of the rule, not a refinement of it: base resolution only relocates the rewrite from the head to the base, so without the filter a PR opened into an attacker-pushed base branch runs that branch's gate. `pull_request_target` is safe HERE only because this job never checks out or executes head-supplied code — it checks out `base.sha` and runs only that tree's scripts (`ci.shared-pr-file-enumeration`); reintroducing a head checkout under this trigger would be worse than the bug it fixed. This closes the rewrite route through THIS workflow and does NOT close the class: Gitea injects a write-capable `GITEA_TOKEN` into EVERY job, so any ref-resolved workflow — and a collaborator's own API token, since branch protection binds the context and not its issuer — can still forge `review-verdict/h10`. Tracked in #697; the exemption path has its own separate defects in #698. | 2026-07-28 | [link](records/ci/gate-trigger-base-resolved.md) |
| `ci.gitea-milestone-filter-noop` | Never filter issues with the server-side `?milestones=<name>` parameter — fetch all open issues once and filter LOCALLY on each issue's `.milestone.title`. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ci/gitea-milestone-filter-noop.md) |
| `ci.grep-q-pipefail-inversion` | In any script running under `set -o pipefail`, a security or classification predicate of the form `producer \| grep -q…` is FORBIDDEN: `grep -q` exits at its first match, the producer then takes SIGPIPE and exits 141 once the data exceeds the pipe buffer (~64K), so `pipefail` reports the pipeline as FAILED even though grep MATCHED — inverting the predicate exactly when the input is large. A here-string (`grep -q… <<< "$data"`) is ALSO forbidden: bash materialises a large here-string via temporary storage, so it fails when temp space is full or unwritable, and inside an `if`/`!` that failure flips the predicate the same way. COUNT instead — `n=$(printf '%s\n' "$data" \| grep -cE "$re")` — because `grep -c` drains stdin (no early exit, no SIGPIPE) over an ordinary pipe (no temp file). Read grep's status honestly: exit 1 means a zero count and is a legitimate answer, anything >1 is a real error. Evaluate the counts ONCE at TOP LEVEL, never inline inside an `if`/`elif` condition: inside `$( )` an `exit` leaves only the subshell and `set -e` does not fire, so an error silently reads as "no match". Validate that each result is numeric and fail closed if not. This applies to both the enforced gate `.gitea/workflows/review-verdict.yml` and the advisory hook `.claude/hooks/pretooluse-merge-consent.sh`. | 2026-07-29 | [link](records/ci/grep-q-pipefail-inversion.md) |
| `ci.infra-shaped-red-under-load` | When a job dies inside a setup/cache step before your code compiles, check the runner host's load before diagnosing the diff, and never file a CI bug off one sample under pressure. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ci/infra-shaped-red-under-load.md) |
| `ci.jq-version-contract` | Every shell gate that shells out to `jq` is authored to the jq 1.6-compatible subset, because the CI runner ships jq 1.6 while every developer Mac ships 1.8.x. `scripts/jq-preflight.sh` (no args) prints the parsed version and asserts a floor of 1.6 in every gate job's log; `scripts/jq-preflight.sh --expect 1.6` additionally pins and fails loudly, but ONLY in the `script-tests` job. `review-verdict.yml` never pins — it writes the branch-protection-required `review-verdict/h10` status, so a hard pin there would turn any jq bump into a repo-wide merge deadlock. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/ci/jq-version-contract.md) |
| `ci.killed-job-triage` | Never trust a job's `conclusion` field alone — read the log tail and require an `❌ Failure - Main …` marker before treating a red as a real failure. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ci/killed-job-triage.md) |

| `ci.peak-anon-measurement` | The `test` job's headline memory figure is a sampled high-water mark of cgroup `anon`, produced by `scripts/ci-peak-anon.sh`; `memory.peak` and the end-of-job `anon`/`file` split are kept only as a cache-inflated reference. | 2026-07-19 | [link](records/ci/peak-anon-measurement.md) |
| `ci.root-screenshot-guard` | The Husky `pre-commit` hook refuses a staged root-level `*.png` (belt-and-suspenders with the `.gitignore` rule); nested `*.png` real assets are unaffected. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/ci/root-screenshot-guard.md) |
| `ci.runner-placement` | No persistent Roslyn compiler server survives a CI build (`UseSharedCompilation=false` etc., runner env + Dockerfile `ENV`); every `services:` container gets its own explicit `--memory`/`--memory-swap`/`--cpus` cap (it does not inherit the job container's). | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/ci/runner-placement.md) |
| `ci.script-tests-job` | The `scripts/tests/` pytest suite runs on every PR as a dedicated `script-tests` job in `pr-checks.yml` (`runs-on: small`, `setup-python` + `pip install pytest`, `PYTHONPATH=. python3 -m pytest scripts/tests -q`), unconditionally rather than behind a `scripts/**` path filter, and **never as a step inside `decisions-guard`** — a job whose reds a standing rule instructs sessions to ignore must never host a gate whose reds are real. Any new CI gate must be reachable by a failure that is unambiguously attributable to it. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/ci/script-tests-job.md) |
| `ci.shared-pr-file-enumeration` | A PR's complete set of changed file paths is computed by exactly one implementation, `scripts/pr-changed-files.sh`, called by both `.claude/hooks/pretooluse-merge-consent.sh` (advisory — a failure falls through to a human prompt) and `.gitea/workflows/review-verdict.yml` (enforced — a failure must fail closed, because a match here posts the branch-protection-required `review-verdict/h10` status with nobody in the loop). The script owns exhaustiveness (pagination, rename/path validation, head-sha binding, base-ref binding — see `ci.exemption-provenance` — and base-TIP binding, #707: the ref answers "did this PR RETARGET", the tip answers "did the base ADVANCE mid-enumeration", and only the second can see `/pulls/{n}/files` recomputing each offset-paged page against a moved base and dropping a path out of an already-consumed range; both ends of the window are bound, and an advance BEFORE the window is deliberately not an error, or ordinary churn on `main` would fail every open PR) and returns exit 0 only for a verified-complete list; it does NOT classify paths — each caller keeps its own docs-only allow-list, and the two allow-lists differ on purpose and stay separate. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/ci/shared-pr-file-enumeration.md) |
| `ci.small-lane-git-only` | `runs-on: small` is defined by what a job does (git-only), not its usual runtime; the two `docker build` jobs (docker-build.yml, ci-image.yml) move to `ubuntu-latest` because their worst-case memory, not median runtime, was pinning the small lane's per-slot cap. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/ci/small-lane-git-only.md) |
| `ci.ui-e2e-harness` | The UI-interactive E2E flows run as headless Playwright specs (`web/e2e/*.spec.ts`, driven by `scripts/e2e-ui.sh`) in a **second step of the existing advisory `functional-e2e` job**, never their own job; the browser is `chromium-headless-shell` **baked into the CI toolchain image** (`docker/ci/Dockerfile`, `PLAYWRIGHT_VERSION` kept equal to `web/package.json`'s EXACT `@playwright/test` pin), never installed per run; specs are `serial` with `retries: 0` and assert only contracts the curl harness structurally cannot reach. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/ci/ui-e2e-harness.md) |
| `ci.verdict-write-retarget-fence` | The `review-verdict/h10` job counts `change_target_branch` events on the PR's issue timeline at run start and again immediately before its POST, and writes NOTHING if the count moved. The COUNT is the key because the branch NAME is ABA-vulnerable — `main -> S -> main` reads `main` at both ends, which is how #698 route 1 obtained a forged exemption — while the event count is monotonic and cannot alias. Abstaining is a handoff, not a stall, and that is the property the design rests on: every retarget fires `edited`, which is in this workflow's `types:`, so the event that makes a run abstain has already queued a successor whose window opens after it; the induction terminates when retargeting stops and the last run writes the final answer. `updated_at` was REJECTED as the key because it also moves for comments and labels, which fire none of this workflow's `types:` — a run could abstain with no successor coming, which is a real stall. The count is trusted only when paging reached a validated EMPTY page; an untrusted count (unreadable page, non-array body, non-numeric length, page cap hit) blocks the exemption `success` ONLY and still lets `pending` through, because `pending` cannot turn an unreviewed head green while withholding it would strand ordinary PRs for no safety gain. SEPARATELY, and for the human-verdict race the fence does nothing about: after posting an exemption `success` the job re-reads `/statuses/{sha}` and, if a human `Review-verdict:` row appeared with an id ABOVE a high-water mark taken just before the POST, overwrites its own status with `pending` and logs an error. The repair is `pending`, NEVER a copy of the human's state, since re-posting their `failure` under the machine credential would attribute a human verdict to the job; its description is a SENTINEL that the classification refuses to grant an exemption over AND re-writes verbatim on every later run, so the block is a FIXED POINT rather than decaying — writing the generic `pending` description there instead erases the marker and the exemption simply returns one event later. The mark is captured BEFORE the last-moment re-read, not merely before the POST — a later mark leaves a multi-round-trip blind gap in which a verdict is neither seen by the re-read nor repaired afterwards. The id comparison is load-bearing: a mere presence test would fire forever on a base-mismatched verdict that `read_existing_verdict` deliberately declines to honour, deadlocking that PR's exemption permanently. Finally, a run whose last-moment re-read finds a sentinel it did not see at its FIRST read ABSTAINS instead of posting: that can only mean an overlapping run repaired a raced verdict mid-flight, and this run's `success` — frozen at classification time, with the human row below its own mark, so neither the fence nor the post-write check would catch it — would otherwise bury the rejection. That is the one path in this design that failed toward SUCCESS rather than `pending`. The post-write check counts TWO row shapes above the mark, not one — a human `Review-verdict:` row AND a machine sentinel — because with two overlapping runs the human row can sit BELOW the second run's mark while the first masks it and only then writes the sentinel, leaving the second to post its own `success` on top; counting the sentinel converges both runs on the fixed point instead. | 2026-08-03 | [link](records/ci/verdict-write-retarget-fence.md) |

| `concurrency.diff-scalar-fanout` | The frozen Block optimistic-concurrency recipe (api-conventions §7a) fans out to Collection/Playout×2/MultiCollection/RerunCollection, keeping a guard-returned `PreconditionFailedError` out of any handler's generic `catch(Exception)`→422 mapping, and preserving each aggregate's existing `SaveChangesAsync() > 0` gate semantics under the new unconditional `Version++`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/concurrency/diff-scalar-fanout.md) |
| `concurrency.etag-rotation-completion` | Every handler that mutates a versioned root's editor-visible config state must bump `Version` (rotating the ETag) with no per-aggregate carve-outs, short-circuiting on a genuine no-op before the bump so idempotent re-submits don't fire spurious rebuild fan-out; `SaveChangesForcingVersion` rebases the retry (stored + pending delta), never adopts the stored token verbatim. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/concurrency/etag-rotation-completion.md) |
| `concurrency.force-write-non-ifmatch` | Any handler that leaves a versioned root `Modified` or `Deleted` but takes no `If-Match` (deletes, item add/remove bumpers, scalar-config writers) must save through `ConcurrencyExtensions.SaveChangesForcingVersion` — force-write past a concurrent `Version` bump rather than throw an unhandled `DbUpdateConcurrencyException` (500). | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/concurrency/force-write-non-ifmatch.md) |
| `concurrency.idempotent-concurrent-add` | A concurrent duplicate `Add*ToCollection` that loses the race on the composite-key unique constraint is treated as an idempotent no-op (skip the reindex/rebuild fan-out), not a 500 — detected via a provider-specific `TvContext.IsUniqueConstraintViolation` delegate defaulting to "no". | 2026-07-18 | [link](records/concurrency/idempotent-concurrent-add.md) |

| `concurrency.replace-all-contract` | Replace-all aggregate PUTs carry a uniform plain `int Version` concurrency token (EF `.IsConcurrencyToken()`), checked pre-save and enforced by the EF UPDATE guard, returning 412 (not 409) on a stale `If-Match`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/concurrency/replace-all-contract.md) |
| `concurrency.schedule-item-child-identity` | `PUT /api/schedules/{id}/items` reconciles by an optional round-tripped child `Id` (null/absent/0 ⇒ new item), never by array position, so fill-group/shuffle state follows the logical item across reorders; an unknown or duplicate id is rejected 422 (checked after the §7a `CheckVersion`, so 412 precedes 422). | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/concurrency/schedule-item-child-identity.md) |
| `docs.convention-docs-session-start` | Docs-first, not source-first: conventions (api-conventions, spa-conventions, e2e-local, blazor-route-parity, domain-model, decisions, README) are read from docs, not reverse-engineered from code, via `docs/README.md`'s task-signal map — only the sections it points to for the task at hand, not the whole set. Each doc is updated in the same PR that changes what it documents, replacing deferred/follow-up doc updates. | 2026-07-07 | [link](records/docs/convention-docs-session-start.md) |
| `docs.corpus-size-signal` | The corpus's size signal is a per-record prose ceiling (`decisions_validate.py --record-ceiling`, default 60, chosen at a natural gap in the distribution), reported as a NON-BLOCKING `::warning::` naming each record over it. The aggregate prose total is still printed every run but carries NO threshold — it is a `::notice::` trend only — because a total over a monotonically growing corpus can only ratchet, and the generated catalog (`docs/decisions/README.md`) is no longer counted at all since it gains one row per record and cannot be consolidated away. Being listed by the ceiling is an invitation to check for REDUNDANCY, never an instruction to cut: a long record that is all distinct findings is a legitimate decline, and should be recorded as one. The ceiling's CALIBRATION is guarded in two pieces of different robustness (#688): the blocking test asserts only the coarse, non-ratcheting property that the ceiling flags a MEANINGFUL MINORITY of records (`0.02 <= fraction_over <= 0.25`), while the fine claim — that it sits between p90 and p95 — is REPORTED by `main()` as a `::notice::` and never asserted against the live corpus. A ceiling drifting out of date is the passage of corpus growth, not a defect in the commit under test, so it gets `stale_records`' treatment rather than a red in the blocking `script-tests` job. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/docs/corpus-size-signal.md) |
| `docs.decision-lifecycle` | every decision `##` record (active or archived) carries a 5-field metadata block (`key`, `status`, `since`, `supersedes`, `superseded-by`) checked by `scripts/decisions_validate.py`; a record is never deleted or line-edited to reverse a call — it is moved to `docs/decisions/archive/` with `status: superseded`/`retired` and a reciprocal `superseded-by`/`supersedes` key pair to its replacement. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/docs/decision-lifecycle.md) |
| `docs.decision-one-file-per-record` | Each decision record is its own file at `docs/decisions/records/<area>/<topic>.md` (archived ones at `docs/decisions/archive/<area>/<topic>.md`) with YAML frontmatter; the filename IS the key, so one-active-record-per-key is a filesystem property rather than a validator check, and supersession is a `git mv`. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/docs/decision-one-file-per-record.md) |
| `docs.decision-optional-provenance` | Decision records gain two OPTIONAL fields — `stale-after: YYYY-MM-DD` on the metadata line and a `**Sources:**` line in the metadata block; the Open Knowledge Format (OKF) itself is NOT adopted as the record format. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/docs/decision-optional-provenance.md) |
| `docs.frontmatter-pyyaml-crosscheck` | `decisions_validate.py` runs `pyyaml_frontmatter_faults()` over every record-wing file: it loads the frontmatter with PyYAML and reports an ERROR when PyYAML rejects the document OR when any key's value differs from what the dependency-free `dl._read_frontmatter` read. PyYAML is the WRITER of these files (`migrate_decisions_split.render_record` emits them with `yaml.safe_dump`), so on any disagreement PyYAML is authoritative and the defect is in the FILE, not in either parser. The check is strictly additive: when PyYAML is not importable it is SKIPPED and `main()` says so with a `::notice::`, never silently — the read path stays dependency-free because `decisions-guard`, the Husky hooks and contributor machines install nothing. The comparison has exactly ONE implementation, called by both the validator and `test_frontmatter_reader_matches_pyyaml_on_every_real_record`, so the suite and the tool cannot drift on what "matches PyYAML" means. | 2026-08-04 | [link](records/docs/frontmatter-pyyaml-crosscheck.md) |
| `docs.record-wing-parse-guard` | `decisions_validate.py` asserts, per PATH, that every `*.md` under `docs/decisions/records/**` and `docs/decisions/archive/**` parses to exactly one record carrying a `key` — an ERROR, not a warning, since a file in the record wings that is not a record is a mistake by definition. A file sitting DIRECTLY in `archive/` is exempt only when it actually looks like a #610 stripped index — exactly one keyless record with a known generated heading — never merely by living there. The one other exemption, `archive/README.md`, is by exact RELATIVE PATH; nothing is ever exempt by BASENAME, since that would exempt the same filename in the active wing too. `_read_frontmatter` is deliberately NOT extended to accept YAML block scalars: every record value goes on ONE line, and the structural check is what makes that limitation loud instead of silent. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/docs/record-wing-parse-guard.md) |
| `docs.tracker-comment-retrofit` | When the knowledge exporter flags an over-cap tracker issue and excludes it from ingestion, triage its comments instead of assuming a retrofit is owed — and for each decision-shaped item check the **worked issue first**, because a tracker session comment is by construction a précis of the fuller closing record posted on the issue it narrates. Applied to #237 (111 comments) this yielded **zero** records, so server-management#642's "a fact found only in a #237 comment" retrieval row has no valid subject and its interim target (an already-migrated record) is permanent. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/docs/tracker-comment-retrofit.md) |
| `ffmpeg.external-logo-graphics-engine` | External-URL channel logos pass through to the graphics engine like any other watermark source; `WatermarkSelector` must never gate them on `File.Exists` (always false for a URL) and never route them through the ffmpeg-native overlay shortcut. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/ffmpeg/external-logo-graphics-engine.md) |
| `ffmpeg.hls-cold-start-burst` | HLS cold-start latency is fixed with a bounded `-readrate_initial_burst` (gated on FFmpeg ≥6.1 capability detection), not by raising `work_ahead_limit`, which would remove the concurrency guarantee it exists for. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/ffmpeg/hls-cold-start-burst.md) |
| `ffmpeg.qsv-decode-encode-split` | QSV decode is decoupled from QSV encode via a single `FFmpegProfile.QsvPreferNativeDecoder` bool (default ON, Linux-only), so a QSV encode profile can decode with the more tolerant native VA-API decoder instead of the QSV decoder, mirroring Jellyfin's hybrid decode/encode toggle instead of a general decode-family enum. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/ffmpeg/qsv-decode-encode-split.md) |
| `ffmpeg.qsv-extra-hw-frames-floor` | a QSV upload never emits `extra_hw_frames` below `FFmpegState.MinimumQsvExtraHardwareFrames` (64); a stored `0` or negative value is treated as "no pool configured" rather than honored literally, because with no headroom any unthrottled read exhausts the pool and the transcode writes nothing at all. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ffmpeg/qsv-extra-hw-frames-floor.md) |
| `ffmpeg.qsv-hdr-tonemap-opencl` | the QSV pipeline never emits `vpp_qsv=tonemap=1`, which is a SILENT no-op on pre-Gen11 Intel graphics; HDR is tonemapped on the GPU via `hwupload=derive_device=vaapi``scale_vaapi``hwmap=derive_device=opencl``tonemap_opencl` when a VA-API device exists, the frames are still in software, and `tonemap_opencl` is available, and by the software `TonemapFilter` otherwise. The scale runs BEFORE the tonemap, and any hardware filter on the path forces the output to be re-tagged bt709. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/ffmpeg/qsv-hdr-tonemap-opencl.md) |
| `ffmpeg.readrate-catchup-sparse-streams` | a realtime video/audio input also gets `-readrate_catchup` (6.0) when the binary supports it — but NOT a still-image input (mirroring the #350 exclusion) and NOT a concat input, which keep at most bare `-readrate` (a still image's video input takes none at all). Reason: `-readrate` paces the whole input off its furthest-behind stream, so a sparse stream sharing that input (an embedded PGS/DVD bitmap subtitle feeding the overlay) otherwise pins output at ~0.53x realtime. Catchup is a ceiling that applies only WHILE an input is behind, never a target, so it does not let a caught-up input race ahead. | 2026-08-04 | [link](records/ffmpeg/readrate-catchup-sparse-streams.md) |
| `ffmpeg.remote-image-fetcher-bounded` | remote graphics-engine images are fetched through `IRemoteImageFetcher` with a pooled `HttpClientFactory` client, a body-covering deadline, a wire-transfer size cap, and a decoder-enforced `DecoderOptions.MaxFrames` bound re-verified post-decode — never cached, re-fetched per element init. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/ffmpeg/remote-image-fetcher-bounded.md) |
| `ffmpeg.watermark-resolution-unified` | Every watermark `WatermarkSelector` resolves goes through one shared `ResolveWatermark` — the playout-item, channel and global precedence levels AND the deco path, for all three `ChannelWatermarkImageSource` values. An unresolvable watermark (missing file, un-migrated external URL, or no logo artwork) resolves to no on-screen bug plus a warning, never a dead path or a URL handed downstream; the one deliberate exception is a playout-item `Custom` with a blank image, which still falls THROUGH to channel/global. The generated-initials fallback is therefore off everywhere, including the deco path where it demonstrably rendered. Watermarks built OUTSIDE the selector (the song-progress overlay, #653) are not covered and remain unchecked. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/ffmpeg/watermark-resolution-unified.md) |
| `ffmpeg.work-ahead-slot-atomic` | `workAheadSegmenterLimit` is enforced by a single compare-exchange claim on a shared `WorkAheadSlots` pool taken by the *caller* of `Transcode`, which then passes ownership in and gets the release in `Transcode`'s `finally` — never a `Volatile.Read` compare in one place and an `Interlocked.Increment` in another. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ffmpeg/work-ahead-slot-atomic.md) |
| `ffmpeg.work-ahead-slot-release-never-negative` | `Release()` reads the count and compare-exchanges `current - 1` only when `current > 0`; a release against an empty pool records an unbalanced release and returns `false` **without ever writing a negative value**. It never decrements first and clamps afterward. The single caller (`HlsSessionWorker.Transcode`'s `finally`) logs a warning on the `false` return. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/ffmpeg/work-ahead-slot-release-never-negative.md) |
| `graphics.channel-level-attachment` | A channel can attach `GraphicsElement`s directly via a new `ChannelGraphicsElement` join table (a base layer under deco/playout-item elements), and a built-in text element (`on-now-next.yml`) is seeded once per database so the On Now/Next overlay works out of the box. | 2026-07-22 | [link](records/graphics/channel-level-attachment.md) |
| `graphics.channel-logo-caching` | An external `http(s)` channel-logo URL is fetched, decode-budget-validated, and stored in the image cache under a content-hash name at SAVE time — becoming byte-identical to an uploaded logo — so the render path never fetches a logo over HTTP; a bad URL fails the save with a 422 (BaseError → ValidationProblemDetails). | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/graphics/channel-logo-caching.md) |
| `iptv.base-url` | An optional advertised base URL (`iptv.base_url`) is resolved centrally via a pure Core helper (`AdvertisedBaseUrl`) inside the two IPTV generation handlers (M3U + XMLTV); unset/malformed values fall back byte-identical to the request-derived host, and it's a new `iptv` settings group distinct from `ETV_BASE_URL` and out of scope for HDHomeRun. | 2026-07-16 | [link](records/iptv/base-url.md) |
| `iptv.logo-drives-bug-preset` | One uploaded channel logo drives both the listing logo and the on-screen bug via a shared, seeded `ChannelLogo`-sourced watermark preset (`Channel Bug`), not new per-channel schema. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/iptv/logo-drives-bug-preset.md) |
| `locking.entitylocker-atomic-flags` | `EntityLocker` uses `Interlocked.CompareExchange`-guarded atomic flags plus a documented single-owner-release discipline (no owner tokens/leases); `Unlock*` on an already-unlocked slot returns `false` and logs a Warning rather than throwing. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/locking/entitylocker-atomic-flags.md) |
| `mcp.server-foundation` | `ErsatzTV.Mcp` is a fresh stdio JSON-RPC server wrapping frozen `/api/v1` with explicit narrow per-endpoint tools, read-only-by-default enforced at runtime (`ERSATZTV_ALLOW_WRITES`), machine-key auth, and opt-in `If-Match`. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/mcp/server-foundation.md) |
| `media.lastscan-null-boundary` | A never-scanned `LastScan` surfaces as `null` at the API/MCP boundary, not the `0001-01-01` MinValue sentinel — enforced by an ongoing read-boundary coercion plus a one-time data migration cleanup. | 2026-07-18 | [link](records/media/lastscan-null-boundary.md) |
| `media.remote-stream-probe` | `ValidatePlayoutItemPath` probes the Plex/Jellyfin/Emby remote-stream URL via `IRemoteStreamProber` before returning it; only a redirected 404 fails closed (`PlayoutItemNotAvailableFromMediaServer`), everything else fails open, and there is no toggle. | 2026-07-19 | [link](records/media/remote-stream-probe.md) |
| `media.remote-stream-probe-externaljson` | External-JSON playout channels' `StreamRemotely` now probes the remote-stream URL through the same `IRemoteStreamProber` seam as the generated-playout path, closing the #473 scope gap for a channel kind with no DB `PlayoutItem` rows. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/media/remote-stream-probe-externaljson.md) |
| `media.source-mgmt-write-api` | Media-source management (local/Plex/Jellyfin/Emby) is a REST write API + SPA under `/app/libraries/*`, wrapping existing MediatR commands 1:1 with no new commands or DB migration; connection GETs never leak a stored `apiKey`, and each PUT-replace family's identity contract is documented per-family (not assumed uniform). | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/media/source-mgmt-write-api.md) |
| `process.bom-format-detection-recipe` | Before any push touching `.cs`, detect BOMs with the `xxd` byte check and verify the format gate with `dotnet format --include` run under `bash -c`, never bare zsh. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/bom-format-detection-recipe.md) |
| `process.branch-off-feature-branch` | To fix work on an unmerged feature branch, branch off that branch and land by fast-forward push — and after creating a worktree, drive the first Edit/Read from ITS absolute paths and `git status` it before building. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/branch-off-feature-branch.md) |
| `process.build-concurrency-limits` | Run at most 34 concurrent dotnet/npm builds on this Mac, gate launches on FREE RAM rather than CPU load, and never set `ETV_UPDATE_GOLDENS` / `ETV_UPDATE_PLAYOUT_GOLDENS`. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/build-concurrency-limits.md) |
| `process.codex-cheap-worker-launch` | For bounded tool-bearing selector/recon work, launch a Codex worker with `codex exec -m gpt-5.4-mini -c model_reasoning_effort=low -s read-only`; `spawn_agent` buys parallelism but no cost savings. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/codex-cheap-worker-launch.md) |
| `process.consistency-fix-new-code-scrutiny` | Review a "make X consistent with Y" change as new code, not as a mechanical copy — and for any timer or effect involved, ask explicitly "when does this fire?", including on mount. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/consistency-fix-new-code-scrutiny.md) |
| `process.enumerate-workaround-behaviors-before-deleting` | When an issue says "delete X", enumerate every behavior X provided before removing it — a workaround often serves a second purpose that outlives the first. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/enumerate-workaround-behaviors-before-deleting.md) |
| `process.foreign-worktree-plumbing-merge` | Never commit or merge inside a worktree another session created; land the merge with git plumbing against the branch ref instead. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/foreign-worktree-plumbing-merge.md) |
| `process.harden-with-runtime-posture-not-clamp` | When a security fix constrains a capability the roadmap will later want, make the safe state the DEFAULT OF A SWITCH rather than a wall — and read the feature's own issue for its end-state first. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/harden-with-runtime-posture-not-clamp.md) |
| `process.independent-review-rubric` | Run an independent review pass — preferably a different model family, otherwise a cold-context review-only agent — on any diff touching locks/concurrency, auth/security, API write-path handlers, or DB migrations, or larger than ~150 changed C# lines; skip only for a pure-SPA/docs leaf with no server-state effect, and state the skip and its reason in the PR or close comment. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/independent-review-rubric.md) |
| `process.issue-qualification-audit` | Run `scripts/issue-qualification-audit.sh` at session end and label everything it flags, including issues you filed that session. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/issue-qualification-audit.md) |
| `process.local-gate-before-push` | Run the local build/test gate and a cold-context, scoped "review only" adversarial review over the diff, fold the fixes, and only then push or open the PR. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/local-gate-before-push.md) |
| `process.lock-ownership-enumerate-producers` | Before trusting any "single owner / no double release / no cross-release" claim, grep the whole host project for every writer of that channel message (or acquirer of that lock) — the background scheduler/worker is the usual missing producer. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/lock-ownership-enumerate-producers.md) |
| `process.one-worktree-one-committing-agent` | Never run two committing agents concurrently on one worktree — give each parallel slice its own worktree branched off the feature branch and merge back. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/one-worktree-one-committing-agent.md) |
| `process.parallel-session-claim` | Before starting an issue, check for an existing claim four ways — open PRs referencing it, remote branches naming it, recent comments (a claim can precede the label), and a fresh `git fetch origin main` — then claim with the `in-progress` label plus a comment. A claim prevents duplicate PICKUP, not duplicate WORK. Re-fetch `origin/main` before every push, not only at branch time. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/parallel-session-claim.md) |
| `process.per-agent-model-routing` | State the model tier (and effort, where the client exposes it) in the dispatch itself for every delegated agent — bounded recon → cheapest fast tier at `low`; mechanical slice against a documented contract → mid tier; judgment-heavy work → orchestrator tier; independent review → a different model family than the implementer. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/process/per-agent-model-routing.md) |
| `process.pr-routine-sequence` | Worktree off origin/main → implement → regenerate API artifacts → full local tests + cold review + live-E2E ALL before the push → push, open PR, arm the CI monitor at open → fixes after the push are follow-up commits, never amend/force-push. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/pr-routine-sequence.md) |
| `process.review-disagreement-frontier-judge` | When independent reviews disagree on a gate PR, escalate to the frontier judge, and put the proposed fix approach in front of it — not just the disputed finding. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/review-disagreement-frontier-judge.md) |
| `process.shared-tree-readonly` | Never commit in `/Users/timothy/ersatztv` and never read its `git log`/`git status`/HEAD to infer anything about `main` — work in a worktree off `origin/main`, which is the only source of truth. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/shared-tree-readonly.md) |
| `process.subagent-drop-resume` | Treat a subagent connection drop as laptop sleep or transient network and re-resume via SendMessage — the work survives. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/process/subagent-drop-resume.md) |
| `release.api-contract-ci-gate` | A PR touching `ErsatzTV/Controllers/Api/**` or `ErsatzTV.Core/Api/**` must ship regenerated OpenAPI artifacts (`v1.json`, `v1.d.ts`, `endpoint-index.md`) in the same diff, enforced by a blocking `api-docs` CI job that regenerates-and-diffs against a fresh build. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/release/api-contract-ci-gate.md) |
| `release.done-when-merge-consent` | A PR may merge only when its linked issue's `## Done-when` checklist is fully ticked and the PR's CI is green, enforced by a PreToolUse hook on the Gitea merge tool (deny/allow/ask) plus a pre-push backstop for direct pushes to main. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/release/done-when-merge-consent.md) |
| `release.format-as-you-touch-rebase` | A blocking `format` CI job runs `dotnet format --verify-no-changes` scoped only to the PR's changed `.cs` files (never the legacy BOM backlog), and a PR branch must be kept current by rebasing on `origin/main` (never merging main in), enforced by `.husky/pre-push``prepush-rebase-check.sh`. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/release/format-as-you-touch-rebase.md) |
| `release.live-e2e-required` | A PR that changes an API write-path handler must include a live-E2E pass (driving the real endpoint/screen and confirming the round-trip through a subsequent read), not only unit/characterization tests, and must state whether live-E2E ran or wasn't required. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/release/live-e2e-required.md) |
| `release.merge-consent-autogrant` | When Done-when boxes are ticked, CI is green, and a fresh positive Review-verdict references head, the merge-consent hook emits `permissionDecision: allow` to actually suppress the redundant mechanical prompt — the derived state IS the consent, no separate conversational confirmation on that path. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/release/merge-consent-autogrant.md) |
| `release.migration-rehearsal-prodcopy` | Before promoting a migration-bearing release, rehearse the new image's migrations against a throwaway copy of the latest prod backup (`scripts/migration-smoke.sh`), gating PASS on the migrator's completion log line rather than HTTP readiness alone. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/release/migration-rehearsal-prodcopy.md) |
| `release.prepush-clean-worktree-guard` | A fail-open pre-push hook blocks a push when any file in the branch's diff vs `origin/main` also has uncommitted working-tree or index changes, since a stale-index commit (e.g. `git reset --soft` + `git add` over an edited-but-unstaged fix) can silently push, CI-test, and get reviewed a different tree than the one on disk. Scope is precise to pushed-diff files; escape hatch `ETV_ALLOW_DIRTY_PUSH=1`. | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/release/prepush-clean-worktree-guard.md) |
| `release.promotion-floating-prod` | Prod tracks the floating `:prod` image reference; a tag build's immutable `:<version>` image is scanned first, then promotion happens via a separate manual `DeployStack`, with daily auto-update only as a fallback — tag with enough runway before 03:00 to avoid an unscanned promotion. | 2026-07-13 | [link](records/release/promotion-floating-prod.md) |
| `release.review-verdict-gate` | A PR may not merge until a `Review-verdict: <MERGEABLE\|APPROVED\|BLOCKED\|NOT-MERGEABLE> @ <head-sha>` comment references the PR's current head sha (short-sha prefix match against the verdict's OWN `@ <sha>` field, marker at COLUMN 0 (no indent, so indented code blocks cannot self-approve), whole-word verdict token, fenced code blocks stripped with markdown fence-length semantics, negative wins over positive on the same head); folds into the H6 merge-consent hook as condition (c). The grammar lives in ONE tested place, `scripts/check-review-verdict.sh`#629 found three false-opens that survived because it was implemented inline and untested while this record described stricter behaviour than the code had. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/release/review-verdict-gate.md) |
| `release.verdict-status-check` | The H10 review verdict is written as a `review-verdict/h10` Gitea **commit status** on the exact reviewed sha by `scripts/post-review-verdict.sh`, and that context is a REQUIRED status check on `main`. Because a status belongs to one sha, a later commit cannot inherit it, so Gitea's own `merge_when_checks_succeed` refuses to merge a head no one reviewed. The PreToolUse hook additionally refuses to SCHEDULE an auto-merge unless that status is already green on head. A `pull_request_target` workflow auto-passes the two exempt classes (Renovate-authored, docs-only) unless the PR touches a protected path (`.claude/`, `.codex/`, `.gitea/`, `.husky/`, `scripts/`, `docker/ci/`). This extends — does not supersede — `release.review-verdict-gate` (#303 H10), whose comment convention remains the human-readable artifact and the hook's condition (c). | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/release/verdict-status-check.md) |
| `rulebuilder.relative-date-macros` | The visual rule builder's `inLast`/`notInLast` date operators compile to/parse from the pre-existing `CustomMultiFieldQueryParser` macros `released_inthelast`/`released_notinthelast` and `added_inthelast`/`added_notinthelast`, value form `"<n> day\|week\|month\|year"`; there is no backend change. | 2026-07-23 | [link](records/rulebuilder/relative-date-macros.md) |
| `scan.collections-scan-status` | `GET /api/v1/media-sources/collections-scan-status` reports a family-global (not per-source), boolean-only active-scan set read from `IEntityLocker`; the SPA reconciles authoritatively against it (with a grace-tick helper) instead of a fixed client-side timeout. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/scan/collections-scan-status.md) |
| `scan.getoraddfolder-db-lookup` | `ILibraryRepository.GetOrAddFolder` resolves the existing folder via a DB query on `(LibraryPathId, Path)`, not the caller's `LibraryPath.LibraryFolders` in-memory navigation, since that navigation is only eager-loaded on the local scan path and is null on remote (Jellyfin) callers. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/scan/getoraddfolder-db-lookup.md) |
| `scan.jellyfin-mixed-content-library` | A Jellyfin library whose collection type is `mixed` (or absent) maps to one ErsatzTV library of `LibraryMediaKind.Mixed`, scanned by running the movie/television/music-video scanners in sequence against that single library — a library is a place, not a media kind. | 2026-07-20 | [link](records/scan/jellyfin-mixed-content-library.md) |
| `scan.libraryfolder-unique-identity` | `LibraryFolder` uniqueness per `(LibraryPathId, Path)` is enforced by a database unique index over a SHA-256 `PathHash` (Path is unbounded and not portably indexable), and `LibraryRepository.GetOrAddFolder`/`SetEtag` tolerate the constraint violation by re-reading and adopting the winner's row. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/scan/libraryfolder-unique-identity.md) |
| `scan.musicvideo-server-identity` | Jellyfin music videos carry a per-library server identity (`JellyfinMusicVideo : MusicVideo` with `ItemId`/`Etag`, TPT table + ItemId index), so `JellyfinMusicVideoLibraryScanner` folds onto a shared `MediaServerMusicVideoLibraryScanner` base that diffs the **server item id** and soft-trashes (`FlagFileNotFound`) instead of diffing local paths and hard-deleting. Rows predating the identity are **adopted in place** — the identity row is inserted against the same `MediaItem` id, scoped to the scanned library's own `LibraryPath` — never deleted and re-added. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/scan/musicvideo-server-identity.md) |
| `scan.projection-failure-sweep-guard` | `MediaServerReconciliationGuard` takes a per-enumeration projection-failure count and refuses the file-not-found sweep (logged loudly) whenever it is non-zero against a non-empty existing set — at all six sweeps, including the nested per-show season and per-season episode ones #477 left unguarded (via `ShouldFlagMissingDescendants`, which applies the failure refusal but not #477's empty-fetch branch). Deliberate guard-clause skips (STRM, virtual, unsupported type) are explicitly **not** failures and never suppress a sweep. The missing-fraction / ratio threshold floated by #477 is **rejected**, not deferred. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/scan/projection-failure-sweep-guard.md) |
| `scan.zero-item-fetch-guard` | A media-server library sweep refuses to flag missing items when a successful fetch returns zero incoming items against a non-empty existing set (`MediaServerReconciliationGuard.ShouldFlagMissing`), rather than treating an ambiguous empty result as a full-library deletion. | 2026-07-19 | [link](records/scan/zero-item-fetch-guard.md) |
| `sched.auto-tune-foundation` | Auto-tune preview enumeration uses EF distinct+count queries for exact counts, while each created channel is persisted as a live SmartCollection; coexistence with existing channels/numbers is additive-only, never mutating. | 2026-07-16 | [link](records/sched/auto-tune-foundation.md) |
| `sched.autotune-detailpanel-members` | The Auto-Tune DetailPanel's per-channel content-source list is a live `ISearchIndex.Search` roll-up through the server-owned `AutoTuneAxisMap.GenerateQuery`, not an EF distinct+count query, so the preview matches exactly what the built channel's SmartCollection will contain. | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/sched/autotune-detailpanel-members.md) |

| `sched.clock-padding-existing` | Clock-boundary padding already exists via `FillerPreset`'s `FillerMode.Pad` (Classic) and `pad_to_next`/`pad_until` (Sequential/YAML); #77 is closed as verified+documented, not built new, with a one-click per-channel toggle deferred behind the #388 design-system epic. | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/sched/clock-padding-existing.md) |
| `sched.clock-padding-schedule-toggle` | A `ProgramSchedule.PadToNearestMinute` (nullable int; null = off) makes the Classic builder pad every content item up to the next N-minute clock boundary without a hand-wired Pad `FillerPreset`, by reusing the existing per-content-item Pad path in `PlayoutModeSchedulerBase.AddFiller`.

| `sched.playbackorder-support-matrix` | Every build-time dispatch site logs a loud (non-fatal) warning on an unsupported `PlaybackOrder`, and a declared `PlaybackOrderSupport` matrix + partition tripwire test makes adding a new order safe by construction. | 2026-07-18 | [link](records/sched/playbackorder-support-matrix.md) |
| `sched.reshuffle-scoped-reset` | `POST /api/v1/playouts/{id}/reshuffle` runs `ErasePlayoutHistory` (reseeds `Playout.Seed` + clears anchors/rerun-history) then enqueues a scoped `Reset` build, so reshuffle always reseeds — even for the non-Classic kinds `Reset` alone wouldn't reseed; `Playout.Seed` is surfaced on list/detail DTOs as visible confirmation. | 2026-07-16 | [link](records/sched/reshuffle-scoped-reset.md) |
| `sched.seasonal-scheduling-existing` | Seasonal/date-conditional scheduling already ships first-class via `IAlternateScheduleItem` (Classic `ProgramScheduleAlternate`, Block `PlayoutTemplate`) evaluated by `AlternateScheduleSelector.GetScheduleForDate` (first match in `Index` order, catch-all last); #73 is closed as already-implemented with a docs-only "seasonal/holiday" recipe added, not new code. | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/sched/seasonal-scheduling-existing.md) |
| `sched.shuffle-source-builder` | Shuffle-source construction moves to a static, DI-free `ShuffleSourceBuilder` (a shared seam, not a service) so Classic and Playlist stop cross-engine reaching into `PlayoutBuilder` statics; a unified Classic+Playlist enumerator factory is explicitly rejected as a god-factory. Block/Scripted/YAML duplication is left alone, deferred to a follow-up gated on #381. | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/sched/shuffle-source-builder.md) |
| `sched.weighted-shuffle` | Fair-share/weighted airtime distribution ships as one new `PlaybackOrder.WeightedShuffle = 9` order (equal weights = fair-share), not a retrofit of `ShuffleInOrder` (which only anti-clumps, since its padding spacers emit nothing) and not a separate orthogonal "distribution" setting; weights live on `MultiCollectionItem`/`MultiCollectionSmartItem` (DB default 1, dual-provider migration), bounded at write (1..1000) and clamped again in the enumerator, and the write path rejects `WeightedShuffle` at every dispatch site that doesn't handle it rather than let it silently degrade to unweighted random. | 2026-07-17 | [link](records/sched/weighted-shuffle.md) |
| `sched.weightedshuffle-editor` | WeightedShuffle per-source weights are edited on the multi-collection editor (property of the MultiCollection), while the WeightedShuffle order itself is offered only on classic MultiCollection schedule items; fair-share is a "reset weights to 1" action, not a stored mode. | 2026-07-19 | [link](records/sched/weightedshuffle-editor.md) |
| `scheduling.ondemand-guide-refresh-on-thaw` | When `PlayoutTimeShifter.TimeShift` slides an on-demand playout's materialized timeline forward on tune-in, it reports the channel numbers whose cached guide is now stale — the shifted channel **plus any channels that mirror it** — and `TimeShiftOnDemandPlayoutHandler` enqueues a `RefreshChannelData` for each, so every affected cached XMLTV fragment is regenerated from the just-shifted `PlayoutItem` rows. The guide and playback both read the same stored `PlayoutItem.Start/Finish`, but the guide is served from a **cached** projection — rewriting the rows without rebuilding the cache would leave the guide advertising a stale timeline. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/scheduling/ondemand-guide-refresh-on-thaw.md) |
| `security.artwork-content-type-sniff` | Artwork content type is always derived from the stored bytes (never the client-declared value or a `?contentType=` query param) at both upload and serve, clamped to an image allow-list, closing the unauthenticated stored-XSS chain; Kestrel `MaxRequestBodySize` bounds upload DoS. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/security/artwork-content-type-sniff.md) |
| `security.baseline-response-headers` | `SecurityHeadersMiddleware`, registered first in the pipeline, sets `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`, `X-Frame-Options: DENY`, and `Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin` on every response (CSP/HSTS deliberately deferred); API-key comparison is constant-time and playout pagination is clamped. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/security/baseline-response-headers.md) |
| `security.blazor-removal-auth-posture` | Removing the Blazor UI's OIDC-challenged surface exposes nothing a user couldn't already reach via the already-open `/app` SPA (open since phase (a)); real SPA/API authentication is deliberately deferred to #197, and the removal PR must preserve `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter`, `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter`, and `JwtHelper` access_token support. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/security/blazor-removal-auth-posture.md) |
| `security.contract-freeze-honesty` | The OpenAPI doc's declared security/401 scheme is generated from the same `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter.EndpointRequiresKey` predicate the runtime enforces (so declared auth can't drift from enforced auth), every `/api/*` action returns a ResponseModel (no raw Application VMs), and Channel REST resources are keyed by immutable `Id`, never mutable `Number`. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/security/contract-freeze-honesty.md) |
| `security.corp-same-origin` | `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` sends `Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy: same-origin` on every response including `/docs`/`/openapi`, blocking cross-origin `no-cors` embedding without affecting allowed CORS-mode fetches or server-side Jellyfin `/iptv/*` requests. | 2026-07-13 | [link](records/security/corp-same-origin.md) |
| `security.csp-permissions-policy` | `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` sends an enforcing (not report-only) `Content-Security-Policy` (no `unsafe-inline`/`unsafe-eval`; the one inline theme-bootstrap script allow-listed by hash) and a deny-all `Permissions-Policy` on the SPA/`/api`/`/artwork`/`/iptv`; `/docs` and `/openapi` keep only the baseline headers, excluded from CSP because Scalar needs inline bootstrap. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/security/csp-permissions-policy.md) |
| `security.fail-closed-api-auth` | Every mutating `/api` request requires `X-Api-Key` (no open mode); reads are gated by `Api:RequireKeyForReads` (default true) OR `[RequiresApiKey]` on sensitive controllers; CORS is an exact-origin allowlist (`ApiCors`); `ForwardedHeaders` trust stays configurable but defaults to trust-all-with-warning. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/security/fail-closed-api-auth.md) |
| `security.iptv-access-token-transport` | The `/iptv` `?access_token=` value is percent-encoded (`Uri.EscapeDataString`) everywhere it is interpolated into an M3U/HLS/XMLTV URL (XMLTV additionally XML-escapes the encoded value), so a structural character can't malform the manifest or guide; Serilog logs a scrubbed request path (`access_token``***` via `IncludeQueryInRequestPath = false` + a `RequestPathScrubbed` enricher), so a 5xx/Debug `/iptv` request never writes the token; and every dynamic token-bearing `/iptv` manifest (`channels.m3u`, `xmltv.xml`, the HLS multi-variant/media playlists) returns `Cache-Control: private, no-store`. | 2026-07-23 | [link](records/security/iptv-access-token-transport.md) |
| `security.iptv-browser-token` | Under a JWT-enabled deployment (`JWT:IssuerSigningKey` set), the browser SPA obtains a short-lived, globally-scoped `/iptv/*` access token from an authenticated `GET /api/v1/auth/iptv-token` and appends it as `?access_token=`; the endpoint answers 204 when JWT is disabled (nothing to mint). Lifetime defaults to 60 min, configurable via `JWT:BrowserTokenLifetimeMinutes`. | 2026-07-22 | [link](records/security/iptv-browser-token.md) |
| `security.session-auth-dual-credential` | `ApiAuthorizationFilter` accepts a request when a valid `X-Api-Key` matches OR the principal is an authenticated session (cookie `ctv-session`, `HttpOnly`/`SameSite=Lax`); session-authenticated mutations require the presence-only `X-CSRF` header or are rejected 403. This narrows the OIDC-inert sub-claim of `security.blazor-removal-auth-posture` (#206) — the rest of that record's auth-surface enumeration still holds. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/security/session-auth-dual-credential.md) |
| `security.session-cutover-postify` | The browser SPA authenticates cookie-only (no more `X-Api-Key` from `web/`); the machine key is repurposed to external/MCP-only via `GET /api/auth/machine-key`; every side-effecting GET/HEAD under `/api` is converted to POST so the existing CSRF gate covers it (standing rule: never add a side-effecting GET/HEAD under `/api`). | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/security/session-cutover-postify.md) |
| `session.shared-checkout-refresh` | Session end runs `scripts/refresh-shared-checkout.sh`, which fast-forwards `/Users/timothy/ersatztv` to `origin/main` (and reinstalls `web/node_modules` when the lockfile moved), refusing to touch anything unless that tree is on a clean, non-ahead `main`. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/session/shared-checkout-refresh.md) |
| `spa.add-to-layer` | All add-to-collection/playlist/schedule affordances share one component layer at `web/src/media/addTo/`; multi-select is an explicit screen-level toggle, and the per-card menu offers schedule only for the server-validated kinds. | 2026-07-10 | [link](records/spa/add-to-layer.md) |
| `spa.app-shell-extraction` | `App.tsx` is only the composition root over `web/src/app/routes.tsx` (stable route-object identity), `app/AppShell.tsx` (shell chrome), and `app/ScreenContent.tsx` (exhaustive screen dispatch); primary actions are one explicit `PrimaryActionProvider` registration per screen, replacing the old global `ctv:primary-action` window event. | 2026-07-15 | [link](records/spa/app-shell-extraction.md) |
| `spa.autotune-detailpanel-slideover` | The Auto-Tune DetailPanel SPA is a reusable `SlideOver` primitive sharing `useOverlayBehavior` with `Dialog`, plus a shared advanced-options model extracted from ChannelBuilder; decorative panes without backend support are dropped. | 2026-07-18 | [link](records/spa/autotune-detailpanel-slideover.md) |
| `spa.channel-editor-create-logo` | Bare-channel create is a "New blank channel" action on the channels list (reusing Blazor's add-mode defaults) that navigates into the full editor, and an external logo URL always wins over an uploaded logo, matching `ChannelEditViewModel` precedence. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/spa/channel-editor-create-logo.md) |
| `spa.channel-renumber-prompt` | Channel renumbering uses a sequential `prompt()`-driven "Renumber" action instead of drag-to-reorder. | 2026-07-09 | [link](records/spa/channel-renumber-prompt.md) |
| `spa.channels-screen-extraction` | The Channels domain is a single-file zero-prop screen (`web/src/screens/ChannelsScreen.tsx`) with a colocated test file and no sibling helper directory, since its pure logic is too small (~30 lines) to justify a separate business-rule layer like Schedules' `itemRules.ts`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/spa/channels-screen-extraction.md) |
| `spa.collection-custom-order-ui` | Collection custom ordering uses per-row Move up/Move down buttons (not drag) and is offered for any manual collection with custom order enabled, not just movies-only. | 2026-07-09 | [link](records/spa/collection-custom-order-ui.md) |
| `spa.datetime-local-input` | The channel-mode date/time input uses a native `<input type="datetime-local">` instead of free-text Chronic natural-language parsing. | 2026-07-09 | [link](records/spa/datetime-local-input.md) |
| `spa.deco-templates-table` | The deco-templates editor also renders its day/deco assignment as a table, extending (not replacing) the templates-editor-table convention. | 2026-07-09 | [link](records/spa/deco-templates-table.md) |
| `spa.download-sample-gate` | The SPA disables both Download Media Sample and Download Results while a troubleshooting session is starting/running (Blazor only gated Download Results). | 2026-07-09 | [link](records/spa/download-sample-gate.md) |
| `spa.legacy-redirect-matcher` | `LegacyUiRedirects.TryGetRedirect` is a two-tier matcher — an exact `OrdinalIgnoreCase` `Map` (Tier 1) then an ordered segment-template pattern list (Tier 2, first-match-wins) — collision-free by construction, with a guard invariant that no rule may prefix-match `/api`, `/artwork`, `/docs`, `/openapi`, `/iptv`, `/app`, or `/media/sources`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/spa/legacy-redirect-matcher.md) |
| `spa.library-pickers-resolve-by-search` | A picker over a media-library table (Episode/Song/Image/Movie/MusicVideo/TelevisionShow/TelevisionSeason/Artist/OtherVideo/RemoteStream) resolves its options by SEARCH — a debounced `SearchPicker` calling `searchLibraryPickerOptions`, which issues at most ONE `getLibraryBrowseItems` request per settled query, bounded to `LIBRARY_PICKER_RESULTS` (25) rows — CLAMPED inside the helper, not merely defaulted — and gated on `LIBRARY_PICKER_MIN_QUERY` (2) characters. It list-loads NOTHING on mount or on a type switch, so there is no truncation to surface and no truncation hint. The typed text is COMPILED (`titleContainsQuery``title:*<escaped>*`), never forwarded raw. The current selection renders from the OWNING RECORD, not from the result set (`selectedName` on a rerun collection / playlist item; a single by-id detail read — `getShow`/`getSeason`/`getArtist` — for a filler preset, which stores only the id), and an edit draft is INITIALIZED ONCE from the detail read — never seeded from the list row, never reconciled against a late response — with the form withheld until it lands, the editor failing CLOSED when the response carries no USABLE concurrency token — absent, empty and whitespace-only ETags are ONE case, normalized in one place, so a PUT without `If-Match` is unreachable, and a deadline plus a route back so a hung request cannot strand it. An id NEVER travels without its namespace: search results are cached against `(source, query)` and list-backed options carry the type they were loaded for, so no id from one type can be offered under another; and every id entering editor state — search result, list-backed option, or a selection restored from a detail read — passes ONE shared `isSelectionId` (int32) predicate at that boundary, an unbindable id being treated as ABSENT rather than coerced. Conflicts are detected at SAVE time via `If-Match` -> 412 -> Reload, and Reload simply drops the draft back to null and re-runs the same initialize-once load, so the form is unmounted while the replacement is in flight; an asynchronously-resolved name is keyed to the id it was resolved for and never overwrites a label naming a different id. The typeahead implements the full ARIA combobox keyboard contract, because it replaces a natively keyboard-operable `<select>`. The other half of the superseded record is UNCHANGED: bounded-by-construction admin lists (collections, multi-collections, smart collections, playlists) still page to completeness via `loadAllPages` and still report `complete`/`hint: incomplete`. Server-side caps are not raised — this is a web-only change. | 2026-07-26 | [link](records/spa/library-pickers-resolve-by-search.md) |
| `spa.logs-page-size-local` | The Logs page rows-per-page preference is stored in `window.localStorage` (`ctv-logs-page-size`), not a server `ConfigElement`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/spa/logs-page-size-local.md) |
| `spa.playback-troubleshoot-poll` | The playback-troubleshooting screen reports FFmpeg completion by polling `GET /api/troubleshoot/playback/status` (~2s) rather than a server push channel. | 2026-07-09 | [link](records/spa/playback-troubleshoot-poll.md) |
| `spa.playout-reset-button` | The SPA keeps a single Reset action (server picks the default build mode) and drops Blazor's separate "Schedule reset" button since its capability already exists via the playout's Edit-details flow. | 2026-07-09 | [link](records/spa/playout-reset-button.md) |
| `spa.playouts-screen-extraction` | The Playouts domain (including its unguarded `PlayoutsRouteScreen` route wrapper with local pathname/popstate state) moved as one unit into `web/src/screens/PlayoutsScreen.tsx`, keeping its screen-specific sub-path route ownership colocated with the base screen; a pure structural move with no API/route/CSS/behavior change. | 2026-07-14 | [link](records/spa/playouts-screen-extraction.md) |
| `spa.rulebuilder-nesting` | The visual rule builder's `Group` nests recursively to a single shared cap, `MAX_GROUP_DEPTH` (`types.ts`, currently 5, root group = depth 0) — read by the UI's "Add group" gate, `parse.ts` and the round-trip property-test generator alike; everything else about the builder is unchanged from #176 (compile-only closed Lucene subset over the stored query string, no stored rule AST, field vocabulary from `GET /api/v1/search/fields`). | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/spa/rulebuilder-nesting.md) |
| `spa.schedules-editor-draft-save` | The schedules SPA editor mutates a local draft and flushes one explicit Save (`PUT /api/schedules/{id}/items`) instead of instant-persisting each action; Copy deep-copies all source references (fixing a Blazor omission); the shuffled-schedule GET's `EnforceProperties` lossy normalization is preserved and mirrored in the SPA's option lists. | 2026-07-11 | [link](records/spa/schedules-editor-draft-save.md) |
| `spa.sidebar-collapsible-accordions` | The shell sidebar's collapse + nav-group-accordion state persists under two hyphenated `ctv-sidebar-*` localStorage keys (matching the repo's `ctv-` convention, not the prototype's dotted names); labeled groups default-collapsed. | 2026-07-18 | [link](records/spa/sidebar-collapsible-accordions.md) |
| `spa.spa-rebuild-decision` | The UI is a full React SPA (ChicoryTV) rebuild over the REST API, not a Blazor Server reskin. | 2026-06 | [link](records/spa/spa-rebuild-decision.md) |
| `spa.templates-editor-table` | The SPA templates editor renders day/block assignment as a table, not Blazor's drag-and-drop calendar grid — an accepted, deliberate parity deviation. | 2026-07 | [link](records/spa/templates-editor-table.md) |
| `spa.topbar-primary-action` | The TopBar's primary-action "+" button renders only when the active route declares a non-empty `primaryAction`, is wired (via a shared `usePrimaryAction` hook) only on single-unambiguous-create-flow list screens, and is dropped everywhere else rather than left as a dead/no-op button. | 2026-07-12 | [link](records/spa/topbar-primary-action.md) |
| `spa.yaml-validator-textarea` | The YAML playout validator takes pasted YAML via a `<textarea>`, not a server-side file path, since the SPA has no filesystem access. | 2026-07-09 | [link](records/spa/yaml-validator-textarea.md) |
| `startup.parallel-orientation` | A fresh session runs two concurrent tracks at startup — Orientation (`AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md``docs/README.md` task-signal map → the active decisions catalog `docs/decisions/README.md`) and, only when no issue is named, Selection (`scripts/select-queue.sh N`, deterministic live-Gitea ranking). A named issue skips Selection entirely. ersatztv#237, the closed pickup tracker this replaces, is reduced to a single archival breadcrumb and MUST NOT be read for live state. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/startup/parallel-orientation.md) |
| `testing.e2e-cleanup-scope-by-pid` | An E2E harness or agent may only kill processes whose PIDs it captured at launch — capture the PID; whoever owns the lifecycle releases it from a `trap ... EXIT INT TERM`. Never `pkill -f "dotnet ErsatzTV.dll"` (or any pattern that can match a process this run did not start). A foreign listener is reported, not reaped. | 2026-07-25 | [link](records/testing/e2e-cleanup-scope-by-pid.md) |
| `testing.e2e-local-fresh-config-dir` | Always point `scripts/e2e-local.sh` at a fresh config dir — leftover channels/schedules/DB rows bleed state between runs and corrupt assertions. (The *readiness-probe hang* this record was originally written about was fixed in #533; the fresh-dir rule stands on state-bleed grounds alone.) | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/testing/e2e-local-fresh-config-dir.md) |
| `testing.enumerating-guard-identity-not-position` | A guard that cross-checks a hand-reviewed registry against call sites discovered across the whole repo must key each entry on properties INTRINSIC to the site — file, kind, and the value source text — and never on its absolute line or column. A registry keyed on position is a function of every other file in the repo, so a branch that never touches the guard can invalidate it; and because each PR is green against its own base, that failure is structurally invisible pre-merge and lands on `main` after review and after the merge gate. Dropping the position keeps every mutation the guard exists for — a NEW site, a REMOVED site and a CHANGED value each still fail, since each changes the identity multiset — and costs exactly ONE case, which must be stated rather than implied: a SAME-IDENTITY SUBSTITUTION within one file (delete a registered site, add a different unreviewed one with the same kind and value token, net-zero count) now passes. A REPORTED failure still prints the discovered line:column, because identity and diagnostics need not share a format. Comparison stays a MULTISET count rather than set membership, so two sites in one file sharing an identity must be discovered exactly that many times and a third occurrence still fails. A SCANNER test that asserts real AST positions against FIXED inline fixtures is the opposite case and keeps its line/column identity — it has no churn, because its input does not move. | 2026-07-27 | [link](records/testing/enumerating-guard-identity-not-position.md) |
| `testing.live-e2e-prepush-timing` | Run live-E2E via `scripts/e2e-local.sh` before pushing a write-path or UI change, and exercise download endpoints with curl, never a browser tab. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/testing/live-e2e-prepush-timing.md) |
| `testing.playwright-mcp-download-and-recovery` | In Playwright-MCP E2E, fetch file-download endpoints with curl — never a browser tab or `window.open` — and if browser tools stall repeatedly, `pkill -f ms-playwright-mcp` and drive a fresh session. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/testing/playwright-mcp-download-and-recovery.md) |
| `testing.scripted-playout-golden-deferred` | The `PlayoutBuildGoldenTests` in-memory golden net covers Sequential (YAML) as of #381. Scripted's *end-to-end pipeline* is excluded — `ScriptedPlayoutBuilder` runs a user-authored external program that drives the engine over HTTP loopback, which the in-memory harness can't pin — so that full-pipeline (integration) harness is deferred to #563. But the scheduling *behavior* those scripts drive lives entirely in the in-process `SchedulingEngine` (the `ScriptedScheduleController` is a 1:1 pass-through to it), which IS directly unit/golden-testable; the earlier "Scripted is un-golden-able by construction" framing overstated the constraint by conflating transport with engine. #395 extracts that shared switch to `ContentEnumeratorBuilder` and adds a direct regression net (`ContentEnumeratorBuilderTests`) over it. | 2026-07-22 | [link](records/testing/scripted-playout-golden-deferred.md) |
| `testing.troubleshoot-path-cannot-test-branding` | Verify logo/watermark/bug changes through a real channel playout — a green troubleshoot run proves nothing about branding. | 2026-07-21 | [link](records/testing/troubleshoot-path-cannot-test-branding.md) |
| `api.artwork-rooted-urls` | API response DTOs return artwork as rooted, directly-usable URLs (plus passthrough for absolute/proxy URLs), never relative Blazor-convention paths. | 2026-07-07 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-07--api-artwork-contract-rooted-urls-produced-server-side) |
| `api.async-op-contract` | Queue-triggering `/api/*` endpoints normalize onto one contract — 202 Accepted (queued), 404 (missing entity), 409 (lock held), 422 (domain precondition) — with Trakt as the reference implementation; playout list/detail GETs also carry an `isLocked` observability flag as the HTTP-observable substitute for a live push channel. | 2026-07-11 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-11--async-op-api-contract-normalization--playout-build-observability--f9-scan-endpoints-235) |
| `api.channel-health-object` | `ChannelResponseModel`/`ChannelDetailResponseModel` carry a server-derived `health` object (`ChannelHealthResponseModel { Status, Faults[], PlayoutCount, BrokenSourceItemCount }`) computed **read-time** from the built timeline (`Playout.BuildStatus` + upcoming `PlayoutItem → MediaItem.State`, `Finish >= now`), kind-agnostic across all 5 `PlayoutScheduleKind` values; `Status`/`Faults` are const-string classes (`ChannelHealthStatus`, `ChannelFault`), not C# enums, so the SPA hand-maintains the union (mirrors `ChannelPreviewAvailability`). This supersedes #72's "raw fact only, no derived enum, empty-schedule/broken-source deliberately not computed" stance now that the auto-tune taxonomy churn (#383/#384) it was waiting on has landed (see `channel.origin-marker` sibling record, #414). | 2026-07-23 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-23--channel-health--a-server-derived-health-object-on-the-channel-dtos-built-timeline-detection-415) |

| `api.from-lineup-clear-to-none` | `POST /api/v1/channels/from-lineup` (and the Auto-Tune per-channel `advanced`, which reuses the same DTO) distinguishes *inherit* from *clear-to-none* with a typed `clear` enum list on `advanced`. A field left null/omitted still inherits the template value (unchanged for every existing client); naming a field in `clear` forces it to none on the new channel even when the template sets one. Sending both a set value and a clear for the same field is a validation error. | 2026-07-21 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-21--from-lineup-advanced-overrides-express-clear-to-none-via-a-typed-clear-enum-list-135) |

| `api.playout-build-lock-409` | Every id-keyed playout/channel mutation endpoint checks `IEntityLocker.IsPlayoutLocked(id)` and returns 409 Conflict while a build is in-flight, mirroring Blazor's disabled-buttons behavior; reset-all stays 202 and silently skips locked playouts. | 2026-07-10 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-10--playout-api-mutations-return-409-while-the-build-lock-is-held-215) |
| `api.postcommit-cancellation-none` | Once a mutation commits, its entire compensating side effect (enqueues, publishes, reindexes, cache refresh, and any post-commit lookup gating one of those) runs on `CancellationToken.None` so a late client disconnect can't half-abort an already-committed change. | 2026-07-11 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-11--post-commit-side-effects-run-on-cancellationtokennone-generalized-from-251-to-254) |

| `api.schedule-item-flat-dto` | Schedule-item GET/POST/PUT use a flat, non-polymorphic `ScheduleItemResponseModel` (every subtype field promoted to a nullable top-level member) instead of the polymorphic Application VM hierarchy, with mutation field names matching `ScheduleItemRequest` 1:1 for a lossless round-trip. | 2026-07-10 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-10--schedule-item-get-returns-a-flat-non-polymorphic-dto-scheduleitemresponsemodel) |
| `api.scheduling-hardening` | Create/Replace handlers guard against null/whitespace `name` (`IsNullOrWhiteSpace`, not just `Length`) to prevent NRE-500s, template-item overlap validation compares by index (not record value-equality) to catch exact-duplicate items, and unreachable 404 `ProducesResponseType` attributes on create-only actions are trimmed. | 2026-07-13 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-13--scheduling-api-hardening-null-name-500s-duplicate-template-items-unreachable-404-172) |
| `api.search-allitems-paging` | `GET /api/v1/search/all-items` is paginated (capped page size, `Totals` field) to bound DoS exposure; the SPA add-all flow pages to completeness instead of relying on an unbounded response. | 2026-07-18 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-18--search-all-items-is-paged-to-cap-dos-exposure-spa-add-all-pages-to-completeness-293) |

| `blazor.ui-removed` | The legacy Blazor Server UI (`Pages/`, `Shared/`, `ViewModels/`, `Validators/`, MudBlazor + 8 other packages, Blazor Startup wiring) is fully deleted now that the SPA has parity; the legacy `MapWhen` branch is kept only for controllers/docs/OpenAPI/`LegacyUiRedirects`, and the catch-all fallback 302s any unmatched non-api/artwork/docs/openapi path to `/app`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-11--blazor-server-ui-removed-91-phase-b) |

| `ci.docs-only-detect-shallow-safe` | The docs-only detect script must diff against `FETCH_HEAD` (always resolves after `git fetch`, even shallow) using a two-dot tree diff — not `origin/<base>` with three-dot — because a `fetch-depth: 1` shallow clone has no remote-tracking ref and no merge-base, which silently fails the original detect into `docs_only=false` (full matrix, no functional error).

| `ci.format-gate-folder-mode` | The blocking `format` CI job (and matching pre-commit hook) runs `dotnet format whitespace . --folder --include <files>` instead of loading the full MSBuild/Roslyn solution, cutting the gate from ~480s to ~0.5s with unchanged whitespace/charset coverage. | 2026-07-19 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-19--the-format-gate-runs-dotnet-format-whitespace----folder-not-the-full-solution-format-469) |
| `ci.functional-e2e-harness` | The `functional-e2e` CI job boots the PR's own code from source via `dotnet run` (`scripts/e2e-local.sh`) and runs deterministic assertions (`scripts/e2e-functional.sh`) as an advisory (non-blocking) job, not a `build` dependency or required check. Originally curl-only; since #445 the same job carries a second, headless-browser step for the contracts curl cannot express — see `ci.ui-e2e-harness`. | 2026-07-16 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-16--functional-e2e-ci-harness-advisory-curl-contract-job-over-an-app-booted-from-source-299) |

| `concurrency.etag-rotation-completion` | Every handler that mutates a versioned root's editor-visible config state must bump `Version` (rotating the ETag) with no per-aggregate carve-outs, short-circuiting on a genuine no-op before the bump so idempotent re-submits don't fire spurious rebuild fan-out; `SaveChangesForcingVersion` rebases the retry (stored + pending delta), never adopts the stored token verbatim. | 2026-07-12 | [link](optimistic-concurrency.md#2026-07-12--cross-editor-etag-rotation-completed-for-collectionplayout-config-siblings-269) |
| `concurrency.force-write-non-ifmatch` | Any handler that leaves a versioned root `Modified` or `Deleted` but takes no `If-Match` (deletes, item add/remove bumpers, scalar-config writers) must save through `ConcurrencyExtensions.SaveChangesForcingVersion` — force-write past a concurrent `Version` bump rather than throw an unhandled `DbUpdateConcurrencyException` (500). | 2026-07-12 | [link](optimistic-concurrency.md#2026-07-12-269--non-if-match-root-writers-force-write-past-a-concurrent-version-bump) |

| `docs.tracker-comment-retrofit` | When the knowledge exporter flags an over-cap tracker issue and excludes it from ingestion, triage its comments instead of assuming a retrofit is owed — and for each decision-shaped item check the **worked issue first**, because a tracker session comment is by construction a précis of the fuller closing record posted on the issue it narrates. Applied to #237 (111 comments) this yielded **zero** records, so server-management#642's "a fact found only in a #237 comment" retrieval row has no valid subject and its interim target (an already-migrated record) is permanent. | 2026-07-21 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-21--check-the-worked-issue-before-the-decision-corpus-a-closed-trackers-comments-need-no-retrofit-524) |

| `ffmpeg.qsv-decode-encode-split` | QSV decode is decoupled from QSV encode via a single `FFmpegProfile.QsvPreferNativeDecoder` bool (default ON, Linux-only), so a QSV encode profile can decode with the more tolerant native VA-API decoder instead of the QSV decoder, mirroring Jellyfin's hybrid decode/encode toggle instead of a general decode-family enum. | 2026-07-20 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-20-498--qsv-decode-is-split-from-qsv-encode-via-a-single-qsvprefernativedecoder-bool) |
| `ffmpeg.qsv-extra-hw-frames-floor` | a QSV upload never emits `extra_hw_frames` below `FFmpegState.MinimumQsvExtraHardwareFrames` (64); a stored `0` or negative value is treated as "no pool configured" rather than honored literally, because with no headroom any unthrottled read exhausts the pool and the transcode writes nothing at all. | 2026-07-21 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-21--qsv-hardware-frame-headroom-is-a-floor-not-an-operator-preference-529) |

| `ffmpeg.work-ahead-slot-atomic` | `workAheadSegmenterLimit` is enforced by a single compare-exchange claim on a shared `WorkAheadSlots` pool taken by the *caller* of `Transcode`, which then passes ownership in and gets the release in `Transcode`'s `finally` — never a `Volatile.Read` compare in one place and an `Interlocked.Increment` in another. | 2026-07-21 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-21--work-ahead-slots-are-claimed-atomically-by-the-caller-released-by-the-transcode-it-hands-them-to-536) |
| `ffmpeg.work-ahead-slot-release-never-negative` | `Release()` reads the count and compare-exchanges `current - 1` only when `current > 0`; a release against an empty pool records an unbalanced release and returns `false` **without ever writing a negative value**.

| `graphics.channel-logo-caching` | An external `http(s)` channel-logo URL is fetched, decode-budget-validated, and stored in the image cache under a content-hash name at SAVE time — becoming byte-identical to an uploaded logo — so the render path never fetches a logo over HTTP; a bad URL fails the save with a 422 (BaseError → ValidationProblemDetails). | 2026-07-21 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-21--external-channel-logo-urls-are-downloaded-and-cached-at-save-time-the-render-path-never-fetches-a-logo-525) |
| `iptv.base-url` | An optional advertised base URL (`iptv.base_url`) is resolved centrally via a pure Core helper (`AdvertisedBaseUrl`) inside the two IPTV generation handlers (M3U + XMLTV); unset/malformed values fall back byte-identical to the request-derived host, and it's a new `iptv` settings group distinct from `ETV_BASE_URL` and out of scope for HDHomeRun. | 2026-07-16 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-16--optional-advertised-iptv-base-url-iptvbase_url-resolved-centrally-in-the-two-generators-340) |

| `locking.entitylocker-atomic-flags` | `EntityLocker` uses `Interlocked.CompareExchange`-guarded atomic flags plus a documented single-owner-release discipline (no owner tokens/leases); `Unlock*` on an already-unlocked slot returns `false` and logs a Warning rather than throwing. | 2026-07-11 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-11--entitylocker-atomic-flags--single-owner-release-discipline-no-owner-tokens-231) |

| `release.api-contract-ci-gate` | A PR touching `ErsatzTV/Controllers/Api/**` or `ErsatzTV.Core/Api/**` must ship regenerated OpenAPI artifacts (`v1.json`, `v1.d.ts`, `endpoint-index.md`) in the same diff, enforced by a blocking `api-docs` CI job that regenerates-and-diffs against a fresh build. | 2026-07-12 | [link](release-ci-governance.md#2026-07-12--blocking-ci-gate-for-api-contract-artifacts-303-h4h5) |
| `release.done-when-merge-consent` | A PR may merge only when its linked issue's `## Done-when` checklist is fully ticked and the PR's CI is green, enforced by a PreToolUse hook on the Gitea merge tool (deny/allow/ask) plus a pre-push backstop for direct pushes to main. | 2026-07-12 | [link](release-ci-governance.md#2026-07-12--merge-consent-derived-from-state-via-a--done-when-issue-checklist-303-h6) |
| `release.format-as-you-touch-rebase` | A blocking `format` CI job runs `dotnet format --verify-no-changes` scoped only to the PR's changed `.cs` files (never the legacy BOM backlog), and a PR branch must be kept current by rebasing on `origin/main` (never merging main in), enforced by `.husky/pre-push``prepush-rebase-check.sh`. | 2026-07-12 | [link](release-ci-governance.md#2026-07-12--formatting-as-you-touch-enforced-rebase-not-merge-for-pr-branches-311-h11--format-ci) |
| `release.live-e2e-required` | A PR that changes an API write-path handler must include a live-E2E pass (driving the real endpoint/screen and confirming the round-trip through a subsequent read), not only unit/characterization tests, and must state whether live-E2E ran or wasn't required. | 2026-07-12 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-12--live-e2e-is-a-required-step-for-api-write-path-handler-changes-303) |
| `release.merge-consent-autogrant` | When Done-when boxes are ticked, CI is green, and a fresh positive Review-verdict references head, the merge-consent hook emits `permissionDecision: allow` to actually suppress the redundant mechanical prompt — the derived state IS the consent, no separate conversational confirmation on that path. | 2026-07-12 | [link](release-ci-governance.md#2026-07-12--merge-consent-gate-auto-grants-when-satisfied-no-redundant-prompt-state-is-the-consent-314) |
| `release.migration-rehearsal-prodcopy` | Before promoting a migration-bearing release, rehearse the new image's migrations against a throwaway copy of the latest prod backup (`scripts/migration-smoke.sh`), gating PASS on the migrator's completion log line rather than HTTP readiness alone. | 2026-07-12 | [link](release-ci-governance.md#2026-07-12--release-path-rehearses-migrations-on-a-prod-db-copy-before-promoting-315) |
| `release.prepush-clean-worktree-guard` | A fail-open pre-push hook blocks a push when any file in the branch's diff vs `origin/main` also has uncommitted working-tree or index changes, since a stale-index commit (e.g. `git reset --soft` + `git add` over an edited-but-unstaged fix) can silently push, CI-test, and get reviewed a different tree than the one on disk.

| `sched.weighted-shuffle` | Fair-share/weighted airtime distribution ships as one new `PlaybackOrder.WeightedShuffle = 9` order (equal weights = fair-share), not a retrofit of `ShuffleInOrder` (which only anti-clumps, since its padding spacers emit nothing) and not a separate orthogonal "distribution" setting; weights live on `MultiCollectionItem`/`MultiCollectionSmartItem` (DB default 1, dual-provider migration), bounded at write (1..1000) and clamped again in the enumerator, and the write path rejects `WeightedShuffle` at every dispatch site that doesn't handle it rather than let it silently degrade to unweighted random. | 2026-07-17 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-17--weighted--fair-share-distribution-is-a-new-weightedshuffle-order-shuffleinorder-is-anti-clumping-not-fair-share-70) |
| `sched.weightedshuffle-editor` | WeightedShuffle per-source weights are edited on the multi-collection editor (property of the MultiCollection), while the WeightedShuffle order itself is offered only on classic MultiCollection schedule items; fair-share is a "reset weights to 1" action, not a stored mode. | 2026-07-19 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-19--weightedshuffle-spa-weights-edited-on-the-multi-collection-order-offered-only-on-classic-multicollection-schedule-items-fair-share-is-a-reset-not-a-mode-404) |
| `scheduling.ondemand-guide-refresh-on-thaw` | When `PlayoutTimeShifter.TimeShift` slides an on-demand playout's materialized timeline forward on tune-in, it reports the channel numbers whose cached guide is now stale — the shifted channel **plus any channels that mirror it** — and `TimeShiftOnDemandPlayoutHandler` enqueues a `RefreshChannelData` for each, so every affected cached XMLTV fragment is regenerated from the just-shifted `PlayoutItem` rows. The guide and playback both read the same stored `PlayoutItem.Start/Finish`, but the guide is served from a **cached** projection — rewriting the rows without rebuilding the cache would leave the guide advertising a stale timeline. | 2026-07-21 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-21--an-on-demand-time-shift-rebuilds-the-channels-cached-xmltv-so-the-guide-cant-lag-playback-68) |
| `security.artwork-content-type-sniff` | Artwork content type is always derived from the stored bytes (never the client-declared value or a `?contentType=` query param) at both upload and serve, clamped to an image allow-list, closing the unauthenticated stored-XSS chain; Kestrel `MaxRequestBodySize` bounds upload DoS. | 2026-07-12 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-12--artwork-content-type-is-sniffed-never-reflected-283-s4s9-stored-xss) |
| `security.baseline-response-headers` | `SecurityHeadersMiddleware`, registered first in the pipeline, sets `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`, `X-Frame-Options: DENY`, and `Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin` on every response (CSP/HSTS deliberately deferred); API-key comparison is constant-time and playout pagination is clamped. | 2026-07-11 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-11--baseline-security-response-headers--phase-0-api-hardening-197-pr-279) |
| `security.blazor-removal-auth-posture` | Removing the Blazor UI's OIDC-challenged surface exposes nothing a user couldn't already reach via the already-open `/app` SPA (open since phase (a)); real SPA/API authentication is deliberately deferred to #197, and the removal PR must preserve `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter`, `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter`, and `JwtHelper` access_token support. | 2026-07-11 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-11--blazor-removal-auth-posture-no-new-exposure-beyond-phase-a-real-auth-deferred-to-197-206) |
| `security.contract-freeze-honesty` | The OpenAPI doc's declared security/401 scheme is generated from the same `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter.EndpointRequiresKey` predicate the runtime enforces (so declared auth can't drift from enforced auth), every `/api/*` action returns a ResponseModel (no raw Application VMs), and Channel REST resources are keyed by immutable `Id`, never mutable `Number`. | 2026-07-12 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-12-197-bundle-c--contract-freeze-honesty) |
| `security.corp-same-origin` | `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` sends `Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy: same-origin` on every response including `/docs`/`/openapi`, blocking cross-origin `no-cors` embedding without affecting allowed CORS-mode fetches or server-side Jellyfin `/iptv/*` requests. | 2026-07-13 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-13--cross-origin-resource-policy-same-origin-on-every-response-330) |
| `security.csp-permissions-policy` | `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` sends an enforcing (not report-only) `Content-Security-Policy` (no `unsafe-inline`/`unsafe-eval`; the one inline theme-bootstrap script allow-listed by hash) and a deny-all `Permissions-Policy` on the SPA/`/api`/`/artwork`/`/iptv`; `/docs` and `/openapi` keep only the baseline headers, excluded from CSP because Scalar needs inline bootstrap. | 2026-07-12 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-12--enforcing-csp--permissions-policy-on-the-host-319-zap-baseline) |
| `security.fail-closed-api-auth` | Every mutating `/api` request requires `X-Api-Key` (no open mode); reads are gated by `Api:RequireKeyForReads` (default true) OR `[RequiresApiKey]` on sensitive controllers; CORS is an exact-origin allowlist (`ApiCors`); `ForwardedHeaders` trust stays configurable but defaults to trust-all-with-warning. | 2026-07-12 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-12--fail-closed-api-auth--sensitive-read-tier--corsforwardedheaders-lockdown-197-bundle-a-pr-292) |
| `security.iptv-access-token-transport` | The `/iptv` `?access_token=` value is percent-encoded (`Uri.EscapeDataString`) everywhere it is interpolated into an M3U/HLS/XMLTV URL (XMLTV additionally XML-escapes the encoded value), so a structural character can't malform the manifest or guide; Serilog logs a scrubbed request path (`access_token``***` via `IncludeQueryInRequestPath = false` + a `RequestPathScrubbed` enricher), so a 5xx/Debug `/iptv` request never writes the token; and every dynamic token-bearing `/iptv` manifest (`channels.m3u`, `xmltv.xml`, the HLS multi-variant/media playlists) returns `Cache-Control: private, no-store`. | 2026-07-23 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-23--access_token-transport-hardening-percent-encode-in-m3uhls-redact-from-logs-no-store-on-tokened-manifests-421-559) |
| `security.iptv-browser-token` | Under a JWT-enabled deployment (`JWT:IssuerSigningKey` set), the browser SPA obtains a short-lived, globally-scoped `/iptv/*` access token from an authenticated `GET /api/v1/auth/iptv-token` and appends it as `?access_token=`; the endpoint answers 204 when JWT is disabled (nothing to mint). Lifetime defaults to 60 min, configurable via `JWT:BrowserTokenLifetimeMinutes`. | 2026-07-22 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-22--short-lived-browser-iptv-token-so-the-spa-reaches-iptv-under-jwt-auth-552) |
| `security.session-auth-dual-credential` | `ApiAuthorizationFilter` accepts a request when a valid `X-Api-Key` matches OR the principal is an authenticated session (cookie `ctv-session`, `HttpOnly`/`SameSite=Lax`); session-authenticated mutations require the presence-only `X-CSRF` header or are rejected 403. This narrows the OIDC-inert sub-claim of `security.blazor-removal-auth-posture` (#206) — the rest of that record's auth-surface enumeration still holds. | 2026-07-12 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-12--browser-spa-session-auth-api-accepts-session-or-machine-key-295-pr1-server-only) |
| `security.session-cutover-postify` | The browser SPA authenticates cookie-only (no more `X-Api-Key` from `web/`); the machine key is repurposed to external/MCP-only via `GET /api/auth/machine-key`; every side-effecting GET/HEAD under `/api` is converted to POST so the existing CSRF gate covers it (standing rule: never add a side-effecting GET/HEAD under `/api`). | 2026-07-12 | [link](api-auth-security.md#2026-07-12--295-pr2-spa-session-cutover--301-side-effecting-get-post-ification) |
| `session.shared-checkout-refresh` | Session end runs `scripts/refresh-shared-checkout.sh`, which fast-forwards `/Users/timothy/ersatztv` to `origin/main` (and reinstalls `web/node_modules` when the lockfile moved), refusing to touch anything unless that tree is on a clean, non-ahead `main`. | 2026-07-21 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-21--session-end-fast-forwards-the-shared-checkout-a-stale-tree-serves-stale-files-541) |
| `spa.add-to-layer` | All add-to-collection/playlist/schedule affordances share one component layer at `web/src/media/addTo/`; multi-select is an explicit screen-level toggle, and the per-card menu offers schedule only for the server-validated kinds. | 2026-07-10 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-10--shared-add-to-layer-lives-in-websrcmediaaddto-select-mode-is-an-explicit-toggle) |
| `spa.app-shell-extraction` | `App.tsx` is only the composition root over `web/src/app/routes.tsx` (stable route-object identity), `app/AppShell.tsx` (shell chrome), and `app/ScreenContent.tsx` (exhaustive screen dispatch); primary actions are one explicit `PrimaryActionProvider` registration per screen, replacing the old global `ctv:primary-action` window event. | 2026-07-15 | [link](spa-modularization.md#2026-07-15--app-shellrouting-extraction--explicit-primary-action-ownership-247) |
| `spa.autotune-detailpanel-slideover` | The Auto-Tune DetailPanel SPA is a reusable `SlideOver` primitive sharing `useOverlayBehavior` with `Dialog`, plus a shared advanced-options model extracted from ChannelBuilder; decorative panes without backend support are dropped. | 2026-07-18 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-18--auto-tune-detailpanel-spa-reusable-slideover--shared-advanced-options-model-decorative-panes-dropped-to-match-the-backend-386) |
| `spa.channel-editor-create-logo` | Bare-channel create is a "New blank channel" action on the channels list (reusing Blazor's add-mode defaults) that navigates into the full editor, and an external logo URL always wins over an uploaded logo, matching `ChannelEditViewModel` precedence. | 2026-07-11 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-11--channel-editor-bare-create-entry-point--external-logo-mutual-exclusion-212) |
| `spa.channel-renumber-prompt` | Channel renumbering uses a sequential `prompt()`-driven "Renumber" action instead of drag-to-reorder. | 2026-07-09 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-09--channel-numbers-prompt-driven-sequential-renumber-instead-of-drag-to-reorder) |
| `spa.channels-screen-extraction` | The Channels domain is a single-file zero-prop screen (`web/src/screens/ChannelsScreen.tsx`) with a colocated test file and no sibling helper directory, since its pure logic is too small (~30 lines) to justify a separate business-rule layer like Schedules' `itemRules.ts`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](spa-modularization.md#2026-07-11--channels-screen-extraction-244-single-file-screen-no-sibling-helper-dir-epic-243-phase-1) |
| `spa.collection-custom-order-ui` | Collection custom ordering uses per-row Move up/Move down buttons (not drag) and is offered for any manual collection with custom order enabled, not just movies-only. | 2026-07-09 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-09--collection-custom-order-move-updown-buttons-any-kind-collections) |
| `spa.datetime-local-input` | The channel-mode date/time input uses a native `<input type="datetime-local">` instead of free-text Chronic natural-language parsing. | 2026-07-09 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-09--datetime-local-instead-of-chronic-natural-language-start-parsing) |
| `spa.deco-templates-table` | The deco-templates editor also renders its day/deco assignment as a table, extending (not replacing) the templates-editor-table convention. | 2026-07-09 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-09--table-not-calendar-convention-also-covers-the-deco-templates-editor) |
| `spa.download-sample-gate` | The SPA disables both Download Media Sample and Download Results while a troubleshooting session is starting/running (Blazor only gated Download Results). | 2026-07-09 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-09--spa-gates-download-media-sample-while-a-session-is-active) |
| `spa.legacy-redirect-matcher` | `LegacyUiRedirects.TryGetRedirect` is a two-tier matcher — an exact `OrdinalIgnoreCase` `Map` (Tier 1) then an ordered segment-template pattern list (Tier 2, first-match-wins) — collision-free by construction, with a guard invariant that no rule may prefix-match `/api`, `/artwork`, `/docs`, `/openapi`, `/iptv`, `/app`, or `/media/sources`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-11--legacyspa-redirect-matcher-exact-map--ordered-segment-template-patterns-204) |
| `spa.logs-page-size-local` | The Logs page rows-per-page preference is stored in `window.localStorage` (`ctv-logs-page-size`), not a server `ConfigElement`. | 2026-07-11 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-11--logs-page-size-is-a-client-local-preference-not-a-server-configelement) |
| `spa.playback-troubleshoot-poll` | The playback-troubleshooting screen reports FFmpeg completion by polling `GET /api/troubleshoot/playback/status` (~2s) rather than a server push channel. | 2026-07-09 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-09--playback-troubleshooting-completion-feedback-poll-status-no-push-channel) |
| `spa.playout-reset-button` | The SPA keeps a single Reset action (server picks the default build mode) and drops Blazor's separate "Schedule reset" button since its capability already exists via the playout's Edit-details flow. | 2026-07-09 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-09--per-playout-schedule-reset-button-dropped-reset-uses-the-server-default-build-mode) |
| `spa.playouts-screen-extraction` | The Playouts domain (including its unguarded `PlayoutsRouteScreen` route wrapper with local pathname/popstate state) moved as one unit into `web/src/screens/PlayoutsScreen.tsx`, keeping its screen-specific sub-path route ownership colocated with the base screen; a pure structural move with no API/route/CSS/behavior change. | 2026-07-14 | [link](spa-modularization.md#2026-07-14--playouts-screen-extraction-245-screen-owned-route-wrapper-epic-243-phase-2) |
| `spa.rulebuilder-nesting` | The visual rule builder's `Group` nests recursively to a single shared cap, `MAX_GROUP_DEPTH` (`types.ts`, currently 5, root group = depth 0) — read by the UI's "Add group" gate, `parse.ts` and the round-trip property-test generator alike; everything else about the builder is unchanged from #176 (compile-only closed Lucene subset over the stored query string, no stored rule AST, field vocabulary from `GET /api/v1/search/fields`). | 2026-07-25 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-25--rule-builder-group-nesting-is-bounded-arbitrary-depth-max_group_depth-not-one-level-436) |
| `spa.schedules-editor-draft-save` | The schedules SPA editor mutates a local draft and flushes one explicit Save (`PUT /api/schedules/{id}/items`) instead of instant-persisting each action; Copy deep-copies all source references (fixing a Blazor omission); the shuffled-schedule GET's `EnforceProperties` lossy normalization is preserved and mirrored in the SPA's option lists. | 2026-07-11 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-11--schedules-spa-editor-draftexplicit-save-over-instant-persist-copy-includes-multismartrerun-shuffled-get-normalization-preserved) |
| `spa.sidebar-collapsible-accordions` | The shell sidebar's collapse + nav-group-accordion state persists under two hyphenated `ctv-sidebar-*` localStorage keys (matching the repo's `ctv-` convention, not the prototype's dotted names); labeled groups default-collapsed. | 2026-07-18 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-18--collapsible-sidebar--nav-group-accordions-two-ctv-sidebar--localstorage-keys-labeled-groups-default-collapsed-396) |
| `spa.spa-rebuild-decision` | The UI is a full React SPA (ChicoryTV) rebuild over the REST API, not a Blazor Server reskin. | 2026-06 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-06--ui-rebuild-is-a-react-spa-chicorytv-on-the-rest-api-not-a-blazor-reskin) |
| `spa.templates-editor-table` | The SPA templates editor renders day/block assignment as a table, not Blazor's drag-and-drop calendar grid — an accepted, deliberate parity deviation. | 2026-07 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07--templates-editor-in-the-spa-is-a-table-not-blazors-drag-calendar) |
| `spa.topbar-primary-action` | The TopBar's primary-action "+" button renders only when the active route declares a non-empty `primaryAction`, is wired (via a shared `usePrimaryAction` hook) only on single-unambiguous-create-flow list screens, and is dropped everywhere else rather than left as a dead/no-op button. | 2026-07-12 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-12--topbar-primary-action-button-wire-creates-drop-the-rest-238) |
| `spa.yaml-validator-textarea` | The YAML playout validator takes pasted YAML via a `<textarea>`, not a server-side file path, since the SPA has no filesystem access. | 2026-07-09 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-09--yaml-playout-validator-paste-textarea-instead-of-a-server-file-path) |
| `startup.parallel-orientation` | A fresh session runs two concurrent tracks at startup — Orientation (`AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md``docs/README.md` task-signal map → the active decisions catalog `docs/decisions/README.md`) and, only when no issue is named, Selection (`scripts/select-queue.sh N`, deterministic live-Gitea ranking). A named issue skips Selection entirely. ersatztv#237, the closed pickup tracker this replaces, is reduced to a single archival breadcrumb and MUST NOT be read for live state. | 2026-07-21 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-21--parallel-orientation--selection-is-the-startup-protocol-237-retired-520) |
| `testing.e2e-cleanup-scope-by-pid` | An E2E harness or agent may only kill processes whose PIDs it captured at launch — capture the PID; whoever owns the lifecycle releases it from a `trap ... EXIT INT TERM`. Never `pkill -f "dotnet ErsatzTV.dll"` (or any pattern that can match a process this run did not start). A foreign listener is reported, not reaped. | 2026-07-25 | [link](workflow-process.md#2026-07-25--e2e-cleanup-kills-only-the-pids-it-started-never-a-pkill--f-pattern-586) |
| `testing.e2e-local-fresh-config-dir` | Always point `scripts/e2e-local.sh` at a fresh config dir — leftover channels/schedules/DB rows bleed state between runs and corrupt assertions. (The *readiness-probe hang* this record was originally written about was fixed in #533; the fresh-dir rule stands on state-bleed grounds alone.) | 2026-07-21 | [link](workflow-process.md#2026-07-21--run-scriptse2e-localsh-against-a-fresh-config-dir-a-reused-one-hangs-the-readiness-probe-542) |
| `testing.live-e2e-prepush-timing` | Run live-E2E via `scripts/e2e-local.sh` before pushing a write-path or UI change, and exercise download endpoints with curl, never a browser tab. | 2026-07-21 | [link](workflow-process.md#2026-07-21--live-e2e-runs-before-the-push-and-downloads-are-curled-not-browsed-542) |
| `testing.playwright-mcp-download-and-recovery` | In Playwright-MCP E2E, fetch file-download endpoints with curl — never a browser tab or `window.open` — and if browser tools stall repeatedly, `pkill -f ms-playwright-mcp` and drive a fresh session. | 2026-07-21 | [link](workflow-process.md#2026-07-21--playwright-mcp-curl-download-endpoints-never-open-a-tab-or-windowopen-542) |
| `testing.scripted-playout-golden-deferred` | The `PlayoutBuildGoldenTests` in-memory golden net covers Sequential (YAML) as of #381. Scripted's *end-to-end pipeline* is excluded — `ScriptedPlayoutBuilder` runs a user-authored external program that drives the engine over HTTP loopback, which the in-memory harness can't pin — so that full-pipeline (integration) harness is deferred to #563. But the scheduling *behavior* those scripts drive lives entirely in the in-process `SchedulingEngine` (the `ScriptedScheduleController` is a 1:1 pass-through to it), which IS directly unit/golden-testable; the earlier "Scripted is un-golden-able by construction" framing overstated the constraint by conflating transport with engine. #395 extracts that shared switch to `ContentEnumeratorBuilder` and adds a direct regression net (`ContentEnumeratorBuilderTests`) over it. | 2026-07-22 | [link](../decisions.md#2026-07-22--sequential-yaml-playout-gets-a-golden-scripted-is-excluded-from-the-golden-net-by-construction-381) |
| `testing.troubleshoot-path-cannot-test-branding` | Verify logo/watermark/bug changes through a real channel playout — a green troubleshoot run proves nothing about branding. | 2026-07-21 | [link](workflow-process.md#2026-07-21--channel-branding-is-not-testable-through-the-troubleshooting-playback-api-542) |

**Rule:** Removing the Blazor UI's OIDC-challenged surface exposes nothing a user couldn't already reach via the already-open `/app` SPA (open since phase (a)); real SPA/API authentication is deliberately deferred to #197, and the removal PR must preserve `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter`, `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter`, and `JwtHelper` access_token support.
**Signals:** Blazor removal, auth posture sign-off, OIDC attachment point · paths: `ErsatzTV/Startup.cs`, `ErsatzTV/Pages` · issues: #206, #91, #197
**Mechanics:** `ErsatzTV/Startup.cs` (Razor Pages/OIDC registration); #91 phase (b) removal PR
Each record below moved to its own file under `records/` (ersatztv#610); the rationale is
unchanged. Resolve by **key** — that is the stable identity. A date-based pointer from
another doc or an old issue comment should land here and then follow the link.
Sign-off for the #91 phase (b) removal-gate item #206 ("deleting the last challenged Blazor page leaves
only the open SPA"). The actual authorization wiring in `ErsatzTV/Startup.cs` + `ErsatzTV/Pages` was
enumerated in code (not assumed) before clearing the gate.

**What is gated today**
- **OIDC** (`OidcHelper.IsEnabled` — active only when `Authority`/`ClientId`/`ClientSecret` are configured):
`AddAuthentication` (cookie default, `oidc` challenge) + `AddAuthorization` `DefaultPolicy =
RequireAuthenticatedUser` + **`AddRazorPages(… AuthorizeFolder("/"))`** (Startup.cs:379-385) +
`blazor.UseAuthentication()/UseAuthorization()` inside the Blazor `MapWhen` branch (Startup.cs:764-770).
`AuthorizeFolder("/")` gates **Razor Pages only**, and the sole user-facing Razor Page is
`Pages/_Host.cshtml` — the Blazor Server host (the other `.cshtml`, `Shared/_Favicons.cshtml`, is a
cosmetic partial). **So the OIDC challenge protects exactly the Blazor UI and nothing else.**
- **`/app` (SPA)** is served by its own `MapWhen(path=/app)` static-file branch (Startup.cs:701-714) with
**no authentication/authorization middleware** — open since phase (a) (`/``/app`, PR #148).
- **`/api/*` controllers** carry no `[Authorize]` (verified: zero attributes in `Controllers/`); the
Razor-Pages `AuthorizeFolder`/`DefaultPolicy` never reach them. Their only optional gate is the
per-endpoint `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter` (API-key on mutating JSON endpoints), independent of OIDC/Blazor.
- **`/iptv/*`** is gated by `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter` (JWT `JwtOnlyScheme`, active only when
`JwtHelper.IsEnabled`) in its own `MapWhen` branch (Startup.cs:797-803) — independent of Blazor.
**Posture after Blazor removal.** Removing `Pages/_Host.cshtml`, `AddRazorPages`/`AuthorizeFolder("/")`,
`blazor.UseAuthentication/UseAuthorization`, `MapBlazorHub`, and `MapFallbackToPage("/_Host")` deletes the
OIDC challenge's **only attachment point** — no user-facing surface remains challenged. **No capability is
lost:** every Blazor-served capability already has an open SPA equivalent (the #91 parity effort), and the
SPA was already the unauthenticated path since phase (a), so removal exposes nothing a user could not already
reach via `/app`.
**The one honest caveat (not a regression introduced by removal):** an OIDC-configured operator's *Blazor*
admin UI sits behind a login today; after removal there is no login-gated admin UI at all (the SPA admin UI
is open). That exposure delta already happened at **phase (a)** (the open SPA became the default admin
surface); removal only deletes the now-redundant challenged duplicate. Designing real SPA/API authentication
is deliberately deferred to **#197** (cold API security review — a HARD GATE before any remote exposure).
**Removal-PR must-not-break (independent gates that survive):** `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter` (`/iptv/*`
JWT), `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter` (mutating `/api/*`), and `JwtHelper` access_token query support. **Leave
the OIDC service registrations in place** (conditional on config, inert once no Razor Page consumes them) —
ripping OIDC out is a #197 decision, not a removal-PR one. The removal PR removes only the Blazor-attached
pieces above; `MapControllers()` + `/docs` (Scalar), currently co-hosted in the Blazor `MapWhen` branch, must
survive the surgical reduction.
## 2026-07-11 — Baseline security response headers + Phase-0 API hardening (#197, PR #279)
`key: security.baseline-response-headers` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-11` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** `SecurityHeadersMiddleware`, registered first in the pipeline, sets `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`, `X-Frame-Options: DENY`, and `Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin` on every response (CSP/HSTS deliberately deferred); API-key comparison is constant-time and playout pagination is clamped.
**Signals:** security headers, nosniff, Phase-0 hardening, constant-time comparison · paths: `ErsatzTV/Middleware/SecurityHeadersMiddleware` · issues: #197, #279, #283
**Mechanics:** `ErsatzTV/Middleware/SecurityHeadersMiddleware`
Phase-0 of the #197 remediation — the posture-**independent** safe subset, shipped ahead of the
fail-closed/CORS/versioning posture work tracked in #280#289.
- **Baseline security headers on every response.** New `ErsatzTV/Middleware/SecurityHeadersMiddleware`,
registered **first** in the pipeline (before the `/iptv` `MapWhen` branch and `UseCors`), so it covers
`/api`, `/iptv`, `/artwork`, static, the SPA fallback, and filter-produced 4xx alike — which is why it's
middleware, not an MVC filter. It sets `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`, `X-Frame-Options: DENY`, and
`Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin`. `nosniff` is the standing backstop for the artwork
content-type MIME-sniffing risk (#283). **CSP and HSTS are deliberately NOT included here**: CSP must be
validated against the ChicoryTV SPA's inline assets, and HSTS is a proxy/TLS-termination decision — both
belong to the #197 posture design (#284/roadmap), not this baseline. Headers are set eagerly (not via
`Response.OnStarting`); safe today because the pipeline has no `UseExceptionHandler`/`UseStatusCodePages`
that would `Response.Clear()` — switch to `OnStarting` if one is ever added.
- **Constant-time API-key comparison.** `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter` compares `X-Api-Key` with
`CryptographicOperations.FixedTimeEquals` (over UTF-8 bytes) instead of ordinal `string.Equals`, removing
the response-timing oracle on the write key. Accept/reject behavior is otherwise identical.
- **Playout pagination clamped.** `GET /api/playouts` and `GET /api/playouts/{id}/items` now clamp
`Math.Clamp(pageSize, 1, 100)` + `Math.Max(0, pageNum)` before the query — applying the api-conventions §1
clamp convention the other paged endpoints already follow (these two were passing the raw client value
straight to EF `Take()`).
The larger #197 posture (fail-closed writes, sensitive-read auth tier, CORS lockdown, `/api/v1` versioning,
the OpenAPI security scheme) is decomposed into #280#289 with the phased roadmap on #197; those PRs will
append their own decisions here as they land.
## 2026-07-12 — Artwork content-type is sniffed, never reflected (#283, S4/S9 stored XSS)
`key: security.artwork-content-type-sniff` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** Artwork content type is always derived from the stored bytes (never the client-declared value or a `?contentType=` query param) at both upload and serve, clamped to an image allow-list, closing the unauthenticated stored-XSS chain; Kestrel `MaxRequestBodySize` bounds upload DoS.
**Signals:** stored XSS, content-type sniffing, artwork upload/serve · paths: `ErsatzTV.Core/Images/ImageContentTypes.DetectContentType`, `GetCachedImagePathHandler` · issues: #283, S4, S9
**Mechanics:** `ErsatzTV.Core/Images/ImageContentTypes`
The artwork upload/serve path trusted client-supplied content types at both ends, giving a stored-XSS
chain on **unauthenticated** GET sinks: upload `<script>` bytes declared `image/png`
`GET /iptv/logos/{hash}?contentType=text/html` served them as HTML in the ErsatzTV origin. The #279
`nosniff` header is not a fix here — the server was *explicitly declaring* `text/html`, which the browser
honors regardless of `nosniff`. The trust was the bug; the fix removes it at both ends.
- **Upload derives the content type from the bytes, never the declared value.** `UploadArtworkHandler`
buffers the (size-bounded) upload and calls `ErsatzTV.Core/Images/ImageContentTypes.DetectContentType`,
which uses SkiaSharp's `SKCodec` to identify the format from the image header only — pixels are **not**
decoded, so this can't be turned into a decompression-bomb vector. A payload that isn't one of the
accepted raster formats (png/jpeg/gif/webp) is rejected 422; the declared `Content-Type` is no longer
read at all (the field was dropped from the `UploadArtwork` command).
- **Serve sniffs the stored file; the `?contentType=` reflection is gone.** `GetCachedImagePath` no longer
carries a `ContentType`, and `GetImage` (`/iptv/logos`) / `GetWatermark` (`/artwork/watermarks`) dropped
their `[FromQuery] contentType` binding. `GetCachedImagePathHandler` always derives the MIME type from the
file (`MimeTypes.GetMimeTypeFromFile`) and **clamps it to the image allow-list** (`ImageContentTypes.IsAccepted`),
serving `application/octet-stream` for anything else — so a file whose bytes are not an accepted image (a
legacy cache entry poisoned before the upload sniff landed, or a hypothetical polyglot) is a non-renderable
download, never HTML/script. The removal is **structural** — there is no longer any request path that lets a
client choose the served `Content-Type`. `ArtworkContentTypeModel.UrlWithContentType` now returns the bare path, and the SPA
watermark/logo previews no longer append the query.
- **Defense-in-depth on the persisted JSON DTOs.** The `{path, contentType}` bodies (channel logo, watermark)
run their content type through `ArtworkContentTypeModel.Sanitized()`, which blanks anything outside the
image allow-list before it is stored — so a stale/hostile value can't be reflected by any future code path
even though the serve route already ignores it.
- **S9 upload-size DoS.** Kestrel `Limits.MaxRequestBodySize` is now set from `ETV_MAXIMUM_UPLOAD_MB`, so an
oversized body is rejected as it is read rather than only after the controller's post-binding `file.Length`
check (kept as the friendly-error backstop). This is a global bound; the app has no other large inbound
body (streaming is outbound GET).
`ImageContentTypes` is the single source of truth for the accepted image types (the allow-list previously
duplicated in `UploadArtworkHandler`). Both serve sinks are `[ApiExplorerSettings(IgnoreApi = true)]`, so
none of this changes the OpenAPI document.
## 2026-07-12 — Fail-closed API auth + sensitive-read tier + CORS/ForwardedHeaders lockdown (#197 Bundle A, PR #292)
`key: security.fail-closed-api-auth` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** Every mutating `/api` request requires `X-Api-Key` (no open mode); reads are gated by `Api:RequireKeyForReads` (default true) OR `[RequiresApiKey]` on sensitive controllers; CORS is an exact-origin allowlist (`ApiCors`); `ForwardedHeaders` trust stays configurable but defaults to trust-all-with-warning.
**Signals:** fail-closed auth, sensitive-read tier, CORS allowlist, single API key · paths: `IApiKeyProvider`, `ErsatzTV/Services/ApiKeyProvider.cs`, `FileSystemLayout.ApiKeyPath` · issues: #197, #280, #281, #282, #284, #285
**Mechanics:** `docs/api-conventions.md` §5; `ApiControllerSecurityTests`
Phase-1 of the #197 remediation — the auth posture that must land before any remote exposure.
Owner decisions (confirmed this session): **single API key** (no read/write split), and
**`Api:RequireKeyForReads` defaults `true`** (the whole `/api` surface requires the key). This does
**not** affect Jellyfin/streaming: `/iptv/*` (playlist/guide/streams/logos) and `/artwork/*` are outside
the filter's `/api` scope and keep their own optional access-token; only the management API the SPA talks
to is gated.
- **Fail-closed writes (#280, S1).** The empty-key "open" branch is deleted; there is no open mode. New
`IApiKeyProvider` (`ErsatzTV/Services/ApiKeyProvider.cs`, singleton, resolved once at startup) yields a
never-empty key: `Api:WriteKey` if set, else a key persisted at `FileSystemLayout.ApiKeyPath`
(`/config/api.key`, `0600`, path logged not value), else a generated 256-bit hex key. Every mutating
`/api` request now requires `X-Api-Key`.
- **Sensitive-read tier (#282, S3/S5).** Reads are gated by `Api:RequireKeyForReads` (default true) OR a
new `[RequiresApiKey]` marker (mirror of `[SkipApiKeyAuthorization]`) applied to
`Troubleshoot`/`Logs`/`Settings`/`Maintenance`, so that tier stays gated even if an operator opts reads
open. `OPTIONS` preflight is exempt (CORS middleware owns it). `ApiControllerSecurityTests` asserts the
tier reflectively.
- **Delete dead non-`/api` mutation surfaces (#281, S2).** `SortController`
(`POST media/collections/{id}/items`, dead Blazor SortableJS residue — the SPA uses
`PUT /api/collections/{id}/custom-order`) and `AccountController` (`POST account/logout`, dead OIDC)
bypassed the key because they sat outside `/api`. Removed rather than guarded.
- **CORS opt-in (#284, S6).** `AllowAnyOrigin/Method/Header` is replaced by the `ApiCors` policy: an
exact-origin allowlist from `Api:CorsAllowedOrigins` (semicolon list) that permits `X-Api-Key`/`If-Match`
and exposes `ETag`; with no origins configured there is no cross-origin access (the SPA is same-origin).
- **ForwardedHeaders trust + scanner loopback (#285, S7/S10).** `GET /api/maintenance/gc``POST`
(crawler-triggerable GC; spec regenerated). `ForwardedHeaders` trust is configurable via
`ForwardedHeaders:KnownProxies`/`KnownNetworks` — **unconfigured preserves the current trust-all
behavior but logs a warning** (flipping the default to loopback-only would break reverse-proxy scheme/host
detection and thus M3U/XMLTV absolute URLs — the operator must name their proxy network). `ScannerController`
gains `[LocalhostOnly]` (the scanner always calls back over `http://localhost:{UiPort}/api/scan/...`), which
is only spoof-resistant once ForwardedHeaders trust is restricted — the two interlock. `search/all-items`
DoS-paging is **deferred** (it feeds the SPA "add all" flow and needs coordinated pagination; the unauth
exposure is already closed by read-gating).
- **SPA (`web/`).** The client sends the stored key (`ctv-api-key`) on **every** method (not just
mutations); a new keyless **API Key** screen (`/app/api-key`) lets the user paste the generated key, and a
shell-level banner points there on any 401. See spa-conventions §5e. **First-run/upgrade UX:** with reads
gated by default, the SPA shows no data until the key (from `/config/api.key`) is entered — an intended
consequence of the strict default.
Phase-2 (contract freeze) — the declarative OpenAPI security scheme, global 401 docs, and `/api/v1`
versioning — remains #286/#287/#288. Phase-3 follow-ups: #265, #269, #172 remainder, `search/all-items`
paging, per-key rate limiting.
## 2026-07-12 (#197 Bundle C — contract-freeze honesty)
`key: security.contract-freeze-honesty` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** The OpenAPI doc's declared security/401 scheme is generated from the same `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter.EndpointRequiresKey` predicate the runtime enforces (so declared auth can't drift from enforced auth), every `/api/*` action returns a ResponseModel (no raw Application VMs), and Channel REST resources are keyed by immutable `Id`, never mutable `Number`.
**Signals:** OpenAPI contract honesty, ResponseModel wrapping, Id vs Number key · paths: `OpenApiContractHonestyTests`, `ErsatzTV.Core/Api` · issues: #197, #287, #288
**Mechanics:** `OpenApiContractHonestyTests`; `docs/api-conventions.md`
**#287 — OpenAPI contract honesty by construction.** The "v1" document now emits the `ApiKey` security
scheme plus per-operation `security`/`401` derived from the *same*
`ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter.EndpointRequiresKey` predicate the runtime filter enforces, so declared auth
can never drift from enforced auth. Every operation also gets a synthesized stable `operationId` (the
framework only assigned one when `Name=` was set — ~90 were missing), and body/param-binding operations
get the documented `400 ValidationProblemDetails` they actually return. `DayOfWeek` is now a string enum
in the schema (added to `Startup.UseStringEnumSchemas`), removing the SPA's `WithDayNames` wart. Pinned by
in-process document generation in tests (`OpenApiContractHonestyTests`) rather than the committed `v1.json`.
**#288 — Wrap the last raw ViewModels; reverse the §7a "intentional `version` leak."** Minted
`MediaCollectionResponseModel`, `ProgramScheduleResponseModel`, and `ChannelDetailResponseModel` (all
`#nullable enable`) and routed `CollectionController` / `ScheduleController` / `SmartCollectionController` /
`ResolutionController.GetResolutionByName` / the channel detail GET+writes through ResponseModels, so no
`/api/*` action returns an Application VM. This reverses the earlier §7a judgment that a ResponseModel
"purely to hide one field was disproportionate": `Version` is now header-only (ETag) on every aggregate
body — confirmed safe by grepping `web/src` (the SPA reads `version` from the ETag header, never the
response body). `ChannelDetailResponseModel` is the *full editable* field set the channel editor needs
(distinct from the lean list `ChannelResponseModel`; drops only the derived `webEncodedName`). Also flipped
`#nullable enable` onto the remaining 24 lagging `ErsatzTV.Core/Api/` files for schema honesty, and added
`pageNum` paging to `GET /api/search`.
**Channel REST resources are keyed by database `Id`, never by `Number`.** `Channel.Number` is user-mutable
(editable on update, bulk-renumbered via `/api/channels/bulk/renumber`, transiently invalid mid-renumber),
so the immutable int PK is the canonical key for all `/api/channels/*` single-item routes, sub-resources
(including `playout/reset`, re-keyed from `{channelNumber}` to `{id:int}` in Bundle C), and `Location`
headers. `Number` remains the identity on broadcast surfaces only (IPTV/M3U/XMLTV), a separate contract. A
number-based lookup endpoint may be added additively later; `UniqueId` (Guid) stays out of the REST
contract absent a federation requirement.
## 2026-07-12 — Browser SPA session auth: `/api` accepts session OR machine key (#295 PR1, server-only)
`key: security.session-auth-dual-credential` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** `ApiAuthorizationFilter` accepts a request when a valid `X-Api-Key` matches OR the principal is an authenticated session (cookie `ctv-session`, `HttpOnly`/`SameSite=Lax`); session-authenticated mutations require the presence-only `X-CSRF` header or are rejected 403. This narrows the OIDC-inert sub-claim of `security.blazor-removal-auth-posture` (#206) — the rest of that record's auth-surface enumeration still holds.
**Signals:** session auth, dual credential, CSRF, OIDC revival, local admin · paths: `ApiAuthorizationFilter`, `ErsatzTV/Startup.cs` · issues: #295, #206, #197
**Mechanics:** `docs/spa-conventions.md` §5e (PR2); `RootWriterForceVersionTests`-adjacent auth tests
Implements the ratified #295 design (Fable [PLAN-MODE] pass, issue comment 9548). Supersedes the #206
"OIDC wiring stays inert until #197" note: the retained OIDC service registration is now **revived**, and a
cookie session becomes a first-class `/api` credential alongside the machine `X-Api-Key`. **PR1 is
server-only and backward compatible** — the SPA keeps sending its stored key; the SPA login flow, the
`ApiKeyScreen`→machine-key repurpose, and `spa-conventions §5e` land in **PR2**.
**One gate, evolved (not `[Authorize]`-per-controller).** `ApiKeyAuthorizationFilter``ApiAuthorizationFilter`,
same fail-closed-by-omission logic (a forgotten `[Authorize]` fails *open* — the #280 failure mode — so the
global filter stays the gate). It now accepts a request when a valid `X-Api-Key` matches **OR** the principal
is an authenticated session; the "does this endpoint need auth?" decision is still the single shared
`EndpointRequiresKey(...)` predicate (also drives OpenAPI, so the spec can't drift). Attributes renamed to
match the widened meaning: `[RequiresApiKey]``[RequiresAuthentication]`, `[SkipApiKeyAuthorization]`
`[SkipApiAuthorization]`. `IApiKeyProvider`, the `X-Api-Key` header, and `Api:WriteKey`/`Api:RequireKeyForReads`
are unchanged — **machine/key behavior is byte-identical** (verified: no OpenAPI drift, existing filter tests
still green).
**CSRF (session only).** The machine key is CSRF-immune (a browser can't set a custom header cross-origin
without a credentialed CORS grant we never issue). A cookie session is not: a session-authenticated **mutation**
must carry the `X-CSRF` header (presence-only — a custom header forces a CORS preflight a cross-site page can't
satisfy) or is rejected **403**. Reinforced by `SameSite=Lax` + CORS without `AllowCredentials` (cross-origin
cookie auth is impossible by design). No antiforgery-token machinery.
**Cookie `ctv-session`.** Always registered (local login works with no IdP); OIDC handler added only when
`OIDC:*` is configured. `HttpOnly`, `SameSite=Lax`, `SecurePolicy=SameAsRequest` (so a plain-HTTP LAN isn't
bricked), 14-day sliding. `/api` XHR gets **401/403, not a redirect** (`OnRedirectToLogin`/`AccessDenied`).
The `UseAuthentication`/`UseAuthorization` middleware — deleted with Blazor in #91b — is **revived in the
`legacy` `MapWhen` branch only** (hosts `/api` + OIDC `/callback` + `/docs`; `/iptv` and `/app` untouched).
**Local store = `ConfigElement` rows, single admin, NO migration** (owner ruling F2):
`AuthLocalAdminUsername`, `AuthLocalAdminPasswordHash` (ASP.NET `PasswordHasher`, PBKDF2, via
`Microsoft.Extensions.Identity.Core`), `AuthSecurityStamp`. A password change rotates the stamp; the cookie
`OnValidatePrincipal` (`CookieSecurityStampValidator`) compares the claim to the stored stamp and rejects a
stale session (revocation). OIDC sessions carry an `etv:auth_method=oidc` claim and skip the stamp check
(governed by the IdP).
**Fail-closed out of the box + recovery.** An unconfigured instance keeps `/api` gated (the key still works);
first-run is a **setup-claim** (`POST /api/auth/setup`, first-claim-wins, only valid while unconfigured —
owner ruling F1). Recovery without the browser: `Auth:LocalAdmin:Password` env seed (`LocalAdminSeedService`,
overwrites + rotates the stamp on startup) or the machine key. Login hardening: per-IP rate limit
(`[EnableRateLimiting("auth")]`, 10 / 5 min) on login/setup/password, dummy-hash verify on unknown/unconfigured
user (no enumeration).
**Authelia = app-owned OIDC session; never trust proxy identity headers** (owner ruling F3): the container is
LAN-reachable bypassing the proxy, so `Remote-User`/`Remote-Email` header trust is spoofable. OIDC→Authelia
gives SSO without a double login. **`ForwardedHeaders` behaviour is kept unchanged from #285** (trust any peer
with a warning; restrict via `KnownProxies`/`:KnownNetworks`). A stricter "ignore `X-Forwarded-*` unless a proxy
is configured" default was implemented and then **reverted** after review (cold fork M1): the forwarded
scheme/host feed `/iptv` M3U/XMLTV/HLS absolute-URL generation (`Request.Scheme` in `GetChannelGuideHandler`/
`IptvController`), so ignoring them would regress stream URLs to `http`/internal-host for a proxied deployment
that hasn't set `KnownProxies`. **Deployment coordination:** operators behind a proxy should set
`ForwardedHeaders:KnownProxies`/`:KnownNetworks` — it gives the login rate limiter an unspoofable client IP and
marks the session cookie `Secure` behind TLS. The residual (a direct LAN peer can spoof `X-Forwarded-For` to
evade the per-IP login limit when unrestricted) is accepted defense-in-depth loss, mitigated by PBKDF2 +
no-enumeration.
**Review hardening (fork + independent Codex pass, folded into PR1).** Codex caught concurrency defects the
fork missed — folded in: (a) **atomic first-claim-wins** — setup writes the three credential rows in one
transaction guarded by the unique `ConfigElement.Key` index (a lost race → `DbUpdateException` → 409), so a
concurrent claim can't produce a mixed-state credential; (b) **consistent login snapshot** — login reads the
hash + stamp in one query and no longer rehashes-on-verify, so a login racing a password change can't capture a
newer stamp than the hash it verified (a concurrent change either fails the old password or leaves the issued
cookie carrying the pre-change stamp → revoked next request); (c) **env-seed waits on
`SystemStartup.WaitForDatabase`** (the migrator is a `BackgroundService`, so registration order alone didn't
guarantee the schema existed) — moved to `Services/RunOnce/`. Also: **logout + password require `X-CSRF`**
(the `[SkipApiAuthorization]` auth surface isn't covered by the filter's CSRF check → forced-logout CSRF), and
input length caps on username/password. **Logout rotates the security stamp** when called from a local session
(E2E-caught: `SignOutAsync` alone only clears the *client* cookie, leaving the stateless encrypted ticket
replayable server-side) — so signing out actually ends the session server-side; for the single admin this
revokes all local sessions ("log out everywhere"). Gated on an authenticated session so an unauthenticated
caller can't force-revoke the admin. **Deferred with a tracked gate:** side-effecting `[RequiresAuthentication]`
GETs (troubleshoot playback/archive) aren't CSRF-covered — **#301**, gating PR2 (latent in PR1: the SPA still
uses the machine key). OIDC-session revocation lever (no local stamp) noted for PR3 operator docs.
A **fix-commit re-review** (Codex, #242 discipline) then confirmed the above resolved and caught a second round:
(a) **HIGH — env-seed vs. setup race**: an attacker could claim admin in the startup window before
`LocalAdminSeedService` runs, and the seed's insert would then be swallowed (attacker's credential persists,
defeating the env recovery path). Fixed structurally: **the setup-claim endpoint is closed whenever
`Auth:LocalAdmin:Password` is configured** — the env seed owns the credential, so there is no claim to race
(this also strengthens the setup-claim TOFU posture: an operator on an untrusted network sets the env password
and browser setup is disabled). (b) **LOW**: a concurrent setup race-loser now returns **409** (not 422), and
`ClaimLocalAdmin`'s `DbUpdateException` catch re-checks existence and **rethrows genuine/transient DB errors**
rather than masking them as "already configured". (c) **MEDIUM — accepted**: two *simultaneous* authenticated
password changes are a non-serializable lost-update (last-write-wins; the loser's cookie may be immediately
revoked). Accepted for a **single-admin** system: it needs two concurrent authenticated sessions both submitting
the correct current password at the same instant, and the outcome is self-healing (re-login). Adding EF
optimistic concurrency to the credential rows is disproportionate here.
**OpenAPI = `ApiKey`-only; `/api/auth/*` excluded** (owner ruling F4): the spec's audience is machine/MCP
clients, and a browser-interactive cookie login isn't something a generated client drives, so the cookie path
is an additional accepted credential the doc needn't express. `AuthController` is `[ApiExplorerSettings(IgnoreApi
= true)]`. Verified: no `v1.json`/`v1.d.ts`/`endpoint-index` drift from this PR.
**Phasing.** PR1 = this (server only, no migration). PR2 = SPA (drop the key header for browser calls + add
`X-CSRF`, `AuthContext` + boot gate, login/setup screens, `ApiKeyScreen`→machine-key management, E2E,
`spa-conventions §5e`). PR3 = key rotation + operator docs (Authelia client + env reference). Rollout: PR1→PR2
same release, then a manual Authelia round-trip checklist before the prod pin bump.
## 2026-07-12 — #295 PR2: SPA session cutover + #301 side-effecting-GET POST-ification
`key: security.session-cutover-postify` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** The browser SPA authenticates cookie-only (no more `X-Api-Key` from `web/`); the machine key is repurposed to external/MCP-only via `GET /api/auth/machine-key`; every side-effecting GET/HEAD under `/api` is converted to POST so the existing CSRF gate covers it (standing rule: never add a side-effecting GET/HEAD under `/api`).
**Signals:** SPA cookie-only cutover, CSRF POST-ification, AuthGate boot flow · paths: `web/src/api/client.ts`, `web/src/AuthGate.tsx` · issues: #295, #301, #197
**Mechanics:** `docs/spa-conventions.md` §5e; `docs/api-conventions.md` §9; `docs/e2e-local.md`
PR1 shipped the server side (previous entry): `/api` accepts a session cookie OR the machine `X-Api-Key`, with
`X-CSRF` required on session-authenticated mutations. **PR2 is the SPA cutover** — the browser now authenticates
with the session only — plus **#301** (a session-cookie CSRF hole in side-effecting GETs).
**Browser is cookie-only; the machine key is external/MCP-only.** `web/src/api/client.ts` no longer attaches
`X-Api-Key`; it relies on the same-origin session cookie and sets `X-Csrf: '1'` on every mutating verb centrally.
The former "paste your key" `ApiKeyScreen` is repurposed to **machine-key management**: it reads the server key
from the new `GET /api/auth/machine-key` (session-gated; masked with Reveal + Copy) so an operator can hand it to
MCP / external REST clients — the browser itself never sends it again. *Why:* one credential per audience (the
ratified #295 model); leaving a browser key path alive would keep a CSRF-immune bypass around and defeat the
point.
**Boot gate, not a route** (`web/src/AuthGate.tsx`, wrapping `<App/>` in `main.tsx`): on load it calls the public
`GET /api/auth/config` then `GET /api/auth/session` and renders Setup (first-run local-admin claim) / Login
(local form + an OIDC "Sign in with SSO" button when `oidcEnabled`) / the app. Login and Setup mint **no URL**
the gate renders them at whatever `/app/*` path was requested, so a deep link survives login for free and **no
`blazor-route-parity.md`/`domain-model.md` route rows are added**. It publishes `AuthContext`
(`{ username, method, signOut, requireLogin }`); the 401 signal (`notifyUnauthorized`) now drives re-login via a
passive shell banner (never yanks a dirty draft — it consults the navigation guard first). Auth flows that expect
a 401 inline (login, change-password) pass `suppressUnauthorizedSignal`.
**#301 — POST-ify, don't gate-the-GET.** A side-effecting GET is a CSRF vector once a `SameSite=Lax` cookie is a
normal credential (it rides a cross-site top-level navigation). The three offenders became mutating verbs so the
existing filter CSRF gate covers them with zero new machinery: `GET /api/troubleshoot/playback.m3u8`
**`POST /api/troubleshoot/playback/start`** returning `200 { url }` (the open `/iptv` manifest the player then
loads — so hls.js/native-HLS needs no header injection, strictly better than X-CSRF-on-GET); the archive and
sample GETs → **POST** (SPA downloads them via a fetch-blob helper, never `window.open`). Removing the HEAD
variants also fixed a latent bug: a HEAD opened the `DeleteOnClose` stream and destroyed the artifact. Standing
rule added to `api-conventions.md §9`: **never add a side-effecting GET/HEAD under `/api`.**
**Machine-key GET discloses the key to any authenticated session** — deliberate: the session principal is the
single admin (local or OIDC), same-origin policy blocks a cross-site page from reading the response body, and it
is how the "copy the key for MCP" UX works without a rotation endpoint (rotation is a later PR). **Accepted
residual (OIDC logout):** `POST /api/auth/logout` ends the *app* cookie but not the IdP session, so an OIDC user
who clicks "Sign out" then "Sign in with SSO" returns without re-entering credentials — a `returnUrl`/RP-initiated
logout is a future nicety. Docs: `spa-conventions.md §5e` (SPA seams), `api-conventions.md §9`, `e2e-local.md`
(browser setup/login flow). Refs #295 #301 #197.
## 2026-07-12 — Enforcing CSP + Permissions-Policy on the host (#319, ZAP baseline)
`key: security.csp-permissions-policy` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` sends an enforcing (not report-only) `Content-Security-Policy` (no `unsafe-inline`/`unsafe-eval`; the one inline theme-bootstrap script allow-listed by hash) and a deny-all `Permissions-Policy` on the SPA/`/api`/`/artwork`/`/iptv`; `/docs` and `/openapi` keep only the baseline headers, excluded from CSP because Scalar needs inline bootstrap.
**Signals:** enforcing CSP, script-src hash allowlist, Permissions-Policy · paths: `ErsatzTV/Middleware/SecurityHeadersMiddleware`, `SecurityHeadersMiddlewareTests` · issues: #319, #314, #197, #279
**Mechanics:** `SecurityHeadersMiddlewareTests.Csp_Script_Hash_Should_Match_The_Spa_Index`
Completes the CSP that the #279 baseline-headers entry deferred ("CSP must be validated against the ChicoryTV
SPA's inline assets"). Surfaced by the #314 out-of-ecosystem ZAP baseline (missing CSP/Permissions-Policy WARNs);
a **#197 exit item**. `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` now also sets `Permissions-Policy` (deny-all for
camera/microphone/geolocation/payment/usb) and an **enforcing** `Content-Security-Policy`.
- **Enforce, not report-only.** Report-only was the issue's acceptable fallback, but the SPA's asset graph is
small and fully knowable, so we ship an enforcing policy (report-only leaves the ZAP WARN and provides no real
protection). The policy: `default-src 'self'`; `script-src 'self' '<sha256 of the inline theme-bootstrap
script>'` (**no** `'unsafe-inline'`/`'unsafe-eval'` — the real XSS win); `style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'
https://fonts.googleapis.com`; `img-src 'self' data: blob:`; `font-src 'self' data: https://fonts.gstatic.com`;
`connect-src 'self'`; `object-src 'none'`; `base-uri 'self'`; `frame-ancestors 'none'`; `form-action 'self'`.
- **Why each relaxation.** The SPA is a static file, so a per-response nonce is impossible → the one inline
theme-bootstrap `<script>` is allow-listed **by hash**; `SecurityHeadersMiddlewareTests.Csp_Script_Hash_Should_
Match_The_Spa_Index` hashes the built `wwwroot/app/index.html` when present (else the committed `web/index.html`
source, since the built artifact is gitignored/absent in CI — Vite copies the inline script verbatim) and fails
if it drifts from the middleware constant. `style-src 'unsafe-inline'` covers
React's inline `style=""` attributes (no CSS-in-JS lib to hash). The **Google Fonts** hosts are required — the
SPA CSS `@import`s the Geist web font (caught by **live-E2E**, which the static grep missed); self-hosting the
font to drop the Google dependency is a follow-on hardening, not this issue. `img-src data: blob:` covers
favicon/generated-image data URIs and object-URL upload previews.
- **Scoped: `/docs` (Scalar) and `/openapi` are excluded.** The Scalar API-reference UI relies on inline bootstrap
scripts/styles a strict CSP would break; it keeps the baseline headers (nosniff/frame/referrer) but no CSP.
Hardening that admin surface (self-hosted Scalar or a Scalar-tuned CSP) is a #197 follow-up. Everything else —
SPA, `/api`, `/artwork`, `/iptv` — gets the CSP (non-HTML responses simply never exercise the script/style
directives). Verified by live-E2E (SPA renders clean, zero CSP violations) + curl (CSP present on `/app`/`/api`,
absent on `/docs`/`/openapi`). HSTS remains out (proxy/TLS decision). Refs #319 #314 #197.
## 2026-07-13 — Cross-origin resource policy: `same-origin` on every response (#330)
`key: security.corp-same-origin` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-13` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` sends `Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy: same-origin` on every response including `/docs`/`/openapi`, blocking cross-origin `no-cors` embedding without affecting allowed CORS-mode fetches or server-side Jellyfin `/iptv/*` requests.
**Signals:** CORP, same-origin, cross-origin embedding · paths: `ErsatzTV/Middleware/SecurityHeadersMiddleware` · issues: #330, #319, #314
**Mechanics:** `ErsatzTV/Middleware/SecurityHeadersMiddleware`
The authenticated #314 ZAP scan found that ErsatzTV's baseline response posture omitted
`Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy`. `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` now sends
`Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy: same-origin` on every response, including `/docs` and `/openapi`.
Those two paths remain exempt only from the strict CSP that would break Scalar's inline bootstrap;
CORP has no equivalent rendering conflict and belongs with the middleware's path-independent baseline
headers.
`same-origin` requires the browser request and response to share the exact scheme, host, and port. It
blocks cross-origin `no-cors` loads, so direct browser embedding of ErsatzTV artwork or media from an
alternate origin is deliberately unsupported. It does not reject an allowed CORS-mode API fetch, so the
explicit `Api:CorsAllowedOrigins` machine-client path continues to work. It is also not enforced by
server-side HTTP clients, so Jellyfin's `/iptv/*` requests are unaffected; same-origin SPA artwork and
IPTV requests remain allowed. This is defense in depth for browser embedding and does not replace CORS
or authentication. Refs #330 #319 #314.
## 2026-07-22 — Short-lived browser IPTV token so the SPA reaches `/iptv/*` under JWT auth (#552)
`key: security.iptv-browser-token` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-22` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** Under a JWT-enabled deployment (`JWT:IssuerSigningKey` set), the browser SPA obtains a short-lived, globally-scoped `/iptv/*` access token from an authenticated `GET /api/v1/auth/iptv-token` and appends it as `?access_token=`; the endpoint answers 204 when JWT is disabled (nothing to mint). Lifetime defaults to 60 min, configurable via `JWT:BrowserTokenLifetimeMinutes`.
**Signals:** channel preview / playback-troubleshooting 401ing under JWT; `/iptv/*` not accepting `ctv-session`; minting a JWT for the browser · paths: `ErsatzTV/JwtHelper.cs`, `ErsatzTV/Controllers/Api/AuthController.cs`, `web/src/media/iptvToken.ts` · issues: #552, #60
**Mechanics:** `JwtHelper.GenerateBrowserToken()`; `AuthController.IptvToken`; `withIptvToken(url)` (SPA)
`/iptv/*` is gated by `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter` only when `JWT:IssuerSigningKey` is configured,
and the `"jwt"` scheme accepts only a bearer token or `?access_token=`**not** the SPA's `ctv-session`
cookie (a distinct scheme). Nothing minted a JWT for the browser, so under JWT the #60 channel preview
was declared `Unavailable` and the pre-existing playback-troubleshooting screen was latently broken. This
closes both with one seam.
- **Endpoint.** `GET /api/v1/auth/iptv-token` on `AuthController` (already `[SkipApiAuthorization]` +
self-checks the principal, like `machine-key`). Requires any authenticated session (401 otherwise);
returns `{ token, expiresAt }` when `JwtHelper.IsEnabled`, else **204 No Content**`/iptv/*` is open
then, so there is nothing to append and the SPA plays the plain URL. `Cache-Control: no-store`. Excluded
from the OpenAPI document (`AuthController` is `[IgnoreApi]`, per the #295 F4 ruling — a
browser-interactive credential is not something a generated client drives).
- **A GET is correct here** despite the "no side-effecting GET under `/api`" rule (`api-conventions.md §9`):
minting a JWT writes **no server state** (stateless token, no DB row, no revocation list), so it is not a
CSRF-relevant side effect, and same-origin policy already blocks a cross-site page from reading the
credentialed response body — identical reasoning to the `machine-key` GET.
- **Scope: global.** The `"jwt"` scheme validates only signature + lifetime (no audience/channel claims),
and the token is minted only to the already-authenticated admin who can reach every channel.
Channel-scoping would mean adding claim-based auth to `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter` and the streaming
path — deferred until a non-admin preview audience exists.
- **Lifetime: 60 min default, `JWT:BrowserTokenLifetimeMinutes` override, clamped to 24h.** The token
re-validates on every `/iptv/*` request, so lifetime is the max continuous watch before playback stalls;
60 min comfortably covers an operator verification session, an expired idle session just needs Retry
(mints fresh), and a security-conscious operator can tighten it. A non-positive/unparseable value falls
back to the default rather than minting an already-expired token; a value above 24h (a seconds-vs-minutes
typo would otherwise mint a multi-year bearer token) is clamped down. **Revocation is by short lifetime
only** — a stateless JWT has no per-token revocation; rotating `JWT:IssuerSigningKey` invalidates all
tokens (the existing lever). The SPA's `resetIptvTokenCache()` (called on the preview panel's Retry and on
each troubleshooting Play) makes a user-initiated retry re-mint, so a stale token or a stale "JWT disabled"
latch from a since-reconfigured backend can't wedge a recovery attempt.
- **Deferred hardening (broader than #552) — RESOLVED by `security.iptv-access-token-transport` (#421, #559).**
The `?access_token=` transport itself had pre-existing weaknesses this feature inherited, then bounded by the
short lifetime: Serilog's request log included the full query (so a token could reach logs on an `/iptv` 5xx),
and the token-bearing dynamic manifests carried no `Cache-Control: no-store`. Both predate this feature
(Jellyfin and the M3U playlist already pass `access_token` in `/iptv` URLs); their fixes were cross-cutting
changes to shared request-logging / manifest behavior, tracked as a follow-up and now landed in the record
below (which also adds the #421 M3U quote-safety encoding).
- **Only the top-level manifest needs the token.** The multi-variant playlist embeds `access_token` into
its variant URL (`IptvController.GetMultiVariantPlaylist`), and HLS segments are served by
`UseStaticFiles` at `RequestPath=/iptv/session`**outside** `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter` (which is
a `[ServiceFilter]` on `IptvController` only) — so segment GETs are ungated regardless. The SPA's
`withIptvToken(url)` appends the token to the one manifest URL (a no-op when JWT is off; caches the token
in memory until shortly before expiry) and is used by both the channel-preview panel and the
playback-troubleshooting screen.
## 2026-07-23 — access_token transport hardening: percent-encode in M3U/HLS, redact from logs, no-store on tokened manifests (#421, #559)
`key: security.iptv-access-token-transport` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-23` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** The `/iptv` `?access_token=` value is percent-encoded (`Uri.EscapeDataString`) everywhere it is interpolated into an M3U/HLS/XMLTV URL (XMLTV additionally XML-escapes the encoded value), so a structural character can't malform the manifest or guide; Serilog logs a scrubbed request path (`access_token``***` via `IncludeQueryInRequestPath = false` + a `RequestPathScrubbed` enricher), so a 5xx/Debug `/iptv` request never writes the token; and every dynamic token-bearing `/iptv` manifest (`channels.m3u`, `xmltv.xml`, the HLS multi-variant/media playlists) returns `Cache-Control: private, no-store`.
**Signals:** access_token quote-safety, url-tvg breakout, M3U attribute escaping, XMLTV icon src encoding, request-log token redaction, no-store manifest, token replay from logs/cache · paths: `ErsatzTV.Core/Iptv/ChannelPlaylist.cs`, `ErsatzTV/Controllers/IptvController.cs`, `ErsatzTV.Application/Channels/Queries/GetChannelGuideHandler.cs`, `ErsatzTV/Middleware/RequestLogScrubber.cs`, `ErsatzTV/Startup.cs`, `ErsatzTV.Core/FFmpeg/FFmpegLibraryProcessService.cs` · issues: #421, #559, #552, #376
**Mechanics:** `ChannelPlaylistAccessTokenTests`; `RequestLogScrubberTests`; `IptvControllerCacheHeaderTests`
Resolves the "deferred hardening" bullet under `security.iptv-browser-token` (#552). The shared `?access_token=`
transport had three pre-existing weaknesses that #552's short-lived browser token only *bounded* (not fixed);
they predate #552 because Jellyfin and the M3U playlist already pass `access_token` in `/iptv` URLs.
- **Percent-encode the token in M3U/HLS URLs (#421).** `ChannelPlaylist.ToM3U` interpolates the token into
quoted M3U attributes (`url-tvg="..."`, `tvg-logo="..."`) and bare stream URLs; `IptvController.AccessTokenQuery`
and the internal segmenter URL (`FFmpegLibraryProcessService.WrapSegmenter`) do the same. A token containing a
`"` could terminate a quoted attribute early, and an `&` could split the query — for strict parsers. The value
is a URL query parameter, so the correct fix is percent-encoding (`Uri.EscapeDataString`) at each interpolation
site; ASP.NET decodes `Request.Query`, so the round-trip is lossless and validation is unchanged. For a normal
base64url JWT this is a **no-op** (every character is RFC 3986 unreserved), so the M3U goldens are byte-identical.
This is the M3U analogue of #376's XMLTV `SecurityElement.Escape` fix — #376 correctly did **not** apply to M3U
(M3U is not XML), which is why #421 was split out. The **XMLTV twin** (`GetChannelGuideHandler`) is fixed the same
way for symmetry: the token there lands in a URL query value *inside* an XML attribute, so it now percent-encodes
**then** XML-escapes (`SecurityElement.Escape(Uri.EscapeDataString(token))`) — #376's XML-escape alone guarded XML
well-formedness but not URL correctness, so a token with `&` would still truncate the query after the consumer
XML-unescapes the attribute.
- **Redact the token from request logs (#559).** `UseSerilogRequestLogging` had `IncludeQueryInRequestPath = true`,
and the `ex != null` / `StatusCode > 499` branches log at **Error** regardless of path — so a 5xx on a tokened
`/iptv` URL wrote the replayable, globally-scoped token to the log under default settings. Fix:
`IncludeQueryInRequestPath = false` (built-in `RequestPath` is now path-only) plus a `RequestPathScrubbed`
diagnostic-context property — built by `RequestLogScrubber.ScrubbedPath`, which rebuilds the query with the
`access_token` value masked to `***` and everything else (e.g. `mode=segmenter`) preserved for debugging — that
the message template references in place of `{RequestPath}`. A distinct property name is required because Serilog
appends its own `RequestPath` *after* enriched properties, so reusing the name would let the built-in value win.
**Load-bearing residual:** this scrubs only `UseSerilogRequestLogging`. ASP.NET's own
`Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting.Diagnostics` "Request starting" line logs the raw query (token and all) at
Information; it is suppressed today solely by the `"Microsoft": "Warning"` override in `appsettings.json`, which
is **not** reachable from the runtime logging-settings UI (the `HttpLevelSwitch` overrides only
`Serilog.AspNetCore.RequestLoggingMiddleware`). Keep that override — lowering `Microsoft` to Information/Debug for
routing/auth debugging re-leaks the token. A category-agnostic scrub filter is the follow-up if that override is
ever relaxed.
- **`no-store` on token-bearing dynamic manifests (#559).** `channels.m3u`, `xmltv.xml`, and the HLS
multi-variant/media playlists embed the caller's token in their body/URLs but set no cache headers, so a browser
or intermediary could cache the token-bearing manifest. Each now returns `Cache-Control: private, no-store`. This
covers the Jellyfin-facing M3U/XMLTV as well as the #552 HLS preview manifests — all three share the same
cache-replay risk — and does not affect Jellyfin, which refetches the playlist/guide on its own schedule
regardless of HTTP cache headers. The `.ts` live streams and the ungated HLS segments (served by `UseStaticFiles`
at `/iptv/session`, outside `ConditionalIptvAuthorizeFilter`) carry no token and are unchanged.

- 2026-07-17 — Channel health on the API = the raw `PlayoutCount` fact on the list DTO, not a derived status enum (#72) — [`api.channel-health-signal`](api/channel-health-signal.md)
**Where it lives: `ChannelResponseModel` (the lean list DTO), not a new endpoint and not
`/channels/state`.** Channel health is *config-derived* — it changes when someone edits a playout, not
tick to tick — whereas `/channels/state` is the fast-poll runtime-liveness feed (`OnAir` = someone is
streaming *right now*). Folding health into the polled feed would recompute rarely-changing data every
tick and mix two cadences in one DTO; a third endpoint is over-engineering for one derived integer on a
list whose consumer already reads it. Precedent: `api-conventions.md` §3a stamps the server-derived
`IsLocked` onto `PlayoutListItemResponseModel` for exactly this reason. **It is also free**: `GetAll`
already `Include`s `Playouts` and `MirrorSourceChannel.Playouts` and was discarding them, so no extra
query and no N+1 on a large lineup.
**A raw fact (`int PlayoutCount`), not a `ChannelHealth` enum.** v1 has exactly one trustworthy negative
signal, and the auto-tune arc (#383/#384) is about to churn the status taxonomy (origin, auto-tune
outcomes) — freezing a server-side enum now guarantees a breaking rev of a frozen-additive `/api/v1`
surface. `PlayoutCount` mirrors the long-standing `ChannelViewModel.PlayoutCount` 1:1, is a fact rather
than a policy, and leaves the SPA to derive `0 ⇒ "No playout"` in one predicate.
**What v1 deliberately does NOT compute** — each was considered and ruled out, so don't "finish" them
without reading this:
- **Empty schedule behind an existing playout.** `EmptyScheduleHealthCheck` only understands **Classic**
`ProgramSchedule` playouts. Block, Sequential, Scripted and ExternalJson channels have no
`ProgramSchedule` at all, so a badge driven off that query would be silently absent or wrong for four of
the five schedule kinds — the #71 "verify a shared primitive covers ALL variants" trap. Needs a
per-kind emptiness notion first.
- **Broken / missing source.** `FileNotFound`/`Unavailable` are server-wide media-item counts with no
channel attribution; mapping media → collection → schedule → channel is a project, not a field.
- **User-defined vs auto-generated origin** (#72 scope item a). No honest signal exists:
`Channel` has no origin column, and `ChannelPlayoutSource.Generated` is a *playout-strategy* value that
SPA-created blank channels also carry, so it would mislabel them. Requires a new column + a dual-provider
migration, and provenance belongs to the auto-tune arc that stamps it at creation. A join through the
`"Channel Lineups"` system playlist group was **rejected**: it is a heuristic that breaks the moment a
user edits the channel. Deferred to a follow-up blocked on the auto-tune backend.
Keeping all three out held #72 to a **read-path-only** change: no migration, no write-handler live-E2E.
**Corrected in passing:** `ChannelRepository.GetChannel` never included `Playouts`, so
`GET /api/v1/channels/{id}` reported `playoutCount: 0` for every channel, which silently disabled the
channel editor's playout-source guard. Both call sites now share `Mapper.GetPlayoutsCount` (Mirror-aware).
The related *silent* server-side coercion of Mirror→Generated (a 200 that discards the caller's intent,
against the §3 "surface it, don't silently filter" rule) is filed as **#401**, not fixed here.

list whose consumer already reads it. Precedent: `api-conventions.md` §3a stamps the server-derived
`IsLocked` onto `PlayoutListItemResponseModel` for exactly this reason. **It is also free**: `GetAll`
already `Include`s `Playouts` and `MirrorSourceChannel.Playouts` and was discarding them, so no extra
query and no N+1 on a large lineup.
**A raw fact (`int PlayoutCount`), not a `ChannelHealth` enum.** v1 has exactly one trustworthy negative
signal, and the auto-tune arc (#383/#384) is about to churn the status taxonomy (origin, auto-tune
outcomes) — freezing a server-side enum now guarantees a breaking rev of a frozen-additive `/api/v1`
surface. `PlayoutCount` mirrors the long-standing `ChannelViewModel.PlayoutCount` 1:1, is a fact rather
than a policy, and leaves the SPA to derive `0 ⇒ "No playout"` in one predicate.
**What v1 deliberately does NOT compute** — each was considered and ruled out, so don't "finish" them
without reading this:
- **Empty schedule behind an existing playout.** `EmptyScheduleHealthCheck` only understands **Classic**
`ProgramSchedule` playouts. Block, Sequential, Scripted and ExternalJson channels have no
`ProgramSchedule` at all, so a badge driven off that query would be silently absent or wrong for four of
the five schedule kinds — the #71 "verify a shared primitive covers ALL variants" trap. Needs a
per-kind emptiness notion first.
- **Broken / missing source.** `FileNotFound`/`Unavailable` are server-wide media-item counts with no
channel attribution; mapping media → collection → schedule → channel is a project, not a field.
- **User-defined vs auto-generated origin** (#72 scope item a). No honest signal exists:
`Channel` has no origin column, and `ChannelPlayoutSource.Generated` is a *playout-strategy* value that
SPA-created blank channels also carry, so it would mislabel them. Requires a new column + a dual-provider
migration, and provenance belongs to the auto-tune arc that stamps it at creation. A join through the
`"Channel Lineups"` system playlist group was **rejected**: it is a heuristic that breaks the moment a
user edits the channel. Deferred to a follow-up blocked on the auto-tune backend.
Keeping all three out held #72 to a **read-path-only** change: no migration, no write-handler live-E2E.
**Corrected in passing:** `ChannelRepository.GetChannel` never included `Playouts`, so
`GET /api/v1/channels/{id}` reported `playoutCount: 0` for every channel, which silently disabled the
channel editor's playout-source guard. Both call sites now share `Mapper.GetPlayoutsCount` (Mirror-aware).
The related *silent* server-side coercion of Mirror→Generated (a 200 that discards the caller's intent,
against the §3 "surface it, don't silently filter" rule) is filed as **#401**, not fixed here.

rule: '(superseded) `GET /api/v1/search/fields/{name}/values?q=&limit=` returns distinct WHOLE values from the database for one of a narrow allow-list of catalog fields (not the Lucene term dictionary — analyzed `TextField`s store lowercased word tokens, e.g. "Science Fiction" → `science`/`fiction`, useless as a typeahead suggestion), 404 for an unknown field, a non-`text` field, or a `text` field with no distinct-value source; case-insensitive prefix-filtered on `q`, `limit` clamped to `[1, 50]` (default 50).'

---
Enum fields (e.g. `type`, `content_rating` group) already ship their allowed values inline on
`SearchFieldResponseModel` from the existing `GET /api/v1/search/fields` catalog (`spa.smartcollection-rule-builder`,
#176), so they need no endpoint — a client already has the full value set. **Text** fields (title, studio,
genre-as-free-text, etc.) don't: their values are whatever strings the library actually contains, so the
rule builder's value input for a text field needs a live lookup rather than a fixed list.
The handler allow-lists on `field.Type != "text"` (matching the same `SearchFieldCatalog.Fields` the
`/fields` endpoint serves) and returns `Option.None` → 404 for anything else, rather than silently returning
an empty list for a field that will never have values — a 404 tells a caller "wrong field kind," an empty
200 would look like "no matches yet."
**DB-sourced, not the search index.** The handler injects `IDbContextFactory<TvContext>` and resolves an
explicit per-field-name `IQueryable<string>` (or, for a few special cases, an in-memory list) rather than
querying `ISearchIndex`: `genre`/`show_genre``Set<Genre>()`, `studio``Set<Studio>()`, `director`
`Set<Director>()`, `writer``Set<Writer>()`, `actor``Actors`, `artist``ArtistMetadata.Title` (entity
artists only — free-text music-video/song artist credits are a known, intentionally-uncovered gap), `tag`
`Set<Tag>()` excluding `Tag.NfoCountryTypeId`/`Tag.PlexNetworkTypeId` (reapplying the indexer's own
exclusions so country/network strings don't leak in as tags), `network``Set<Tag>()` filtered to
`Tag.PlexNetworkTypeId`, `collection``Collections`, `video_codec``MediaStreams` filtered to
`MediaStreamKind.Video`, `album``MusicVideoMetadata.Album` concatenated with `SongMetadata.Album`. Every
DB-sourced field runs the same pipeline: `.Where(v => v.ToLower().StartsWith(qLower)).Distinct().OrderBy(v =>
v).Take(limit)`, translated to SQL by EF for both SQLite and MySQL. Two fields are computed in memory instead
of queried: `state` (the fixed 4-value `MediaItemState` enum) and `video_dynamic_range` (the literal
`["hdr", "sdr"]`). `content_rating` is special-cased: the DB stores an unsplit `"PG-13/TV-14"` string across
`MovieMetadata`/`ShowMetadata`/`OtherVideoMetadata`/`RemoteStreamMetadata`, so the handler pulls the distinct
raw strings then `Split('/')`s, trims, and dedupes in memory before the same prefix-filter/sort/take — this
matches what search actually matches on, rather than surfacing the compound string as one facet value.
**`title`, `show_title`, `album_artist` are explicitly NOT supported** (404, free-text fallback): `title`/
`show_title` are near-unique free-text fields spanning ~9 metadata tables where a distinct list of every
title isn't a useful facet; `album_artist` backs onto `SongMetadata.AlbumArtists`, a value-converted
`IList<string>` column EF can't translate into a server-side distinct query.
**Why a thin query, not a cache.** No result cache, no debounce on the server side (the SPA combobox
debounces the keystroke) — each per-field query is a bounded, indexed `Distinct`/`Take`; adding a cache
before there's a measured cost would be premature.

---
With multiple sessions/agents working the repo in parallel, the old protocol — every session
wholesale-rewrites `docs/handoffs/chicorytv-issue-queue.md` on main (session state + queue +
next-session prompt) — became a last-writer-wins race. New protocol: **volatile queue state
moved to Gitea**, which is concurrency-safe by construction. Pinned tracker issue **#237**
holds the goal + ordered arc in its body (edited rarely, only on arc changes, re-read before
edit) and an append-only session-comment log (fixed template: Closed / Filed / Triage /
Arc change / Recommended next). Milestone `Blazor removal (#91 phase b)` + the `review` and
`in-progress` labels are the machine-queryable view. Sessions **claim** an issue before working
it (`in-progress` label + claim comment; the tiny read→claim race window is accepted, later
claimant backs off; stale claims — no commits/comments ~48h — may be taken over with a comment).
Every new issue gets an explicit end-of-session triage verdict — gate-blocker (milestone + arc
slot) or backlog (label only) — so review findings adjust the queue only through that step and
the arc doesn't drift. The handoff file keeps only the **static kickoff prompt** and the
**append-only Lessons lore** (per-session prompts are gone; task context lives in issue bodies).
**Why superseded (#520, 2026-07-21):** the arc completed and #237 closed (2026-07-13); a closed
tracker cannot serve as live queue state, and continuing to read it as such was a live regression
risk (an agent skimming an old comment or this very record could re-treat #237's prose as current).
`scripts/select-queue.sh` (2026-07-19) already replaced the mechanical parts of this rule with a
deterministic, live-Gitea-only query — this record's job was really "queue state lives in Gitea,
not in the handoff file," and that half is still true; what's superseded is the *specific store*
(#237's body/comments) now that maintenance/backlog mode has no arc to narrate. See
`startup.parallel-orientation` for the replacement: two concurrent session-start tracks

**Mechanics:** superseded by `spa.rulebuilder-nesting` (ersatztv#436) — the compile-only closed-subset and field-catalog stances carry forward there; only the one-level nesting cap was reversed. See `docs/decisions.md` → that record; `spa-conventions.md` §12

another doc or an old issue comment should land here and then follow the link.
The SmartCollection create/edit dialog gained a visual rule builder (`web/src/builder/rules/`)
alongside the existing raw-Lucene textarea. **The SmartCollection still stores a plain Lucene query
string — no new stored rule AST, no schema change.** The builder compiles its in-memory rule tree
into a **closed subset** of the Lucene grammar (`compile.ts`) and parses exactly that subset back out
(`parse.ts`, the exact inverse — returns `null`, not a best-effort guess, for anything outside the
subset); escaping is total, so any builder-authored query round-trips losslessly, proven by a 500-tree

SmartCollection tries the parse first and falls back to raw-text mode on `null` (fuzzy queries,
boosts, mixed AND/OR at one nesting level, or nesting deeper than one level).
- 2026-07-18 — SmartCollection rule builder: compile-only closed subset, no stored AST, one-level nesting (#176) — [`spa.smartcollection-rule-builder`](spa/smartcollection-rule-builder.md)
**Why compile-only over persisting an authoritative rule AST**: an AST would still need a
Lucene→rules parser to open every *pre-existing* free-text query — including every query the
Auto-Tune feature (#69) generates — so the AST would buy almost nothing (it still can't represent
arbitrary hand-written Lucene) while costing a dual-provider EF migration and a second source of
truth to keep in sync with the Lucene grammar. Compile-only keeps the query string as the single
source of truth and treats the builder as a structured *editor* over it, not a new storage model.
**One-level-nesting "Kodi" model.** `types.ts` defines a top `Group` (`match: all|any`) over `Rule`s
and/or **one level** of sub-`Group`s — enough to express `type:movie AND (genre:Horror OR
genre:Thriller)`, which covers the smart-playlist patterns Kodi-style rule builders are known for.
Arbitrary/recursive nesting was scoped out as YAGNI; revisit only if a real query needs it.
**Field vocabulary comes from a new catalog endpoint, not a hardcoded list.** `GET
/api/v1/search/fields` (read-only, MCP-introspectable; see `api-conventions.md`) returns the curated,
typed, labeled field set derived from `LuceneSearchIndex` — name/label/type/group/values — and is the
single source of truth the builder's field pickers (`fieldCatalog.ts`'s `useSearchFields` hook) and
operator/value-input choices are driven from, so the builder's vocabulary can't drift from what the
index actually supports.
**Deferred as separate follow-up issues** (explicitly out of scope for #176): facet-value typeahead
for value inputs, relative-date operators, nesting deeper than one level, and inline adoption of
`RuleBuilder` by ChannelBuilder / Auto-Tune (it was built reusable for exactly that reuse — see
`spa-conventions.md` §12).

A `getLibraryBrowseItems` picker over a media-library table (Episode/Song/Image/Movie/MusicVideo, tens of thousands of rows possible) must NOT page to completeness — it fetches ONE bounded page (the server cap) and surfaces the truncation (a `ctv-field-help` hint wired to the real `totalCount`) instead of silently dropping the rest.'

---
`fe342a6a` (#644) extracted the `loadAllPages` client-side paging helper and applied it at every
call site that had been requesting an over-cap `pageSize` to "get everything in one call" — a
pattern that silently truncated to the server's `MaxPageSize` (100) with no error and no
truncation indicator. A cold adversarial review of that fix found it was correct for the
admin-created lists (rerun collections, multi-collections, playlists — bounded by construction,
hundreds of rows at most) but dangerous for three call sites: the `getLibraryBrowseItems` pickers
in `RerunCollectionsScreen`, `PlaylistsScreen`, and `FillerPresetsScreen`, which populate a native
`<select>` whose `mediaType` can be `Episode`, `Song`, `Image`, `Movie`, or `MusicVideo` — the
largest tables in an install. Paging one of those to completeness means on the order of 200 serial
requests against a 20,000-row library, each **more** expensive than the last (`LuceneSearchIndex
.Search` computes `hitsLimit = skip + limit`, so later pages re-scan a growing prefix), ending in a
`<select>` with 20,000 `<option>` nodes rendered into the DOM. That is worse than the defect #644
set out to fix.
The fix keeps `loadAllPages` unchanged in behavior for the bounded lists (it now also reports a
`complete: boolean` flag and accepts an `AbortSignal`, per the same follow-up review's F4/F2
findings) and removes it entirely from the three media-library picker call sites. Those instead
call `getLibraryBrowseItems` directly for a single page at the server cap (`pageSize: 100`) and
read the response's `totalCount` to detect truncation. The defect named in #644's title is
"*silently* truncate" — the silence is the bug, not the bound. So a truncated picker load renders a
`ctv-field-help` hint next to the `<select>` (`Showing the first 100 of 5000 — use search to
narrow.`) instead of either paging forever or truncating without saying so. A full
typeahead/search-driven picker over the media library is a materially larger feature (a `query`
param already exists on `getLibraryBrowseItems` for it) and is deliberately out of scope here — a
follow-up issue, not this fix.
**2026-07-26 addendum (round-3 review F1):** `loadPickerOptions`'s `multi` branch (a Class A
source — `MultiCollection`) reused the same `truncated: boolean` field as the Class B media-library
pickers, but the two conditions are not the same thing: Class B's `truncated` means "there are more
rows than fit in one page — narrow via search," while a Class A picker's flag meant "the
`loadAllPages` loop didn't converge" (`complete: false`) — a defensive/incomplete load, not a cap.
Rendering both through the shared "Showing the first N of M — use search to narrow" copy produced a
self-contradictory "Showing the first 47 of 47" on an incomplete Class A load, pointing at a search
box that picker doesn't have. `RerunCollectionsScreen.tsx`/`PlaylistsScreen.tsx` now return a
`hint: 'incomplete' | 'none' | 'truncated'` discriminator instead of a boolean, and render distinct
copy per value — `'truncated'` keeps the existing search-narrowing text, `'incomplete'` renders
"List may be incomplete — retry to reload" (matching the wording already used for the Class A
list-load warn `Badge`). A picker's `console.warn` on an incomplete load — and the analogous one in
`SchedulesScreen.loadAllRerunCollections` — is also gated on `!signal?.aborted`, so a superseded or
user-aborted load (Retry, or a type switch mid-load) no longer logs a false "did not complete"
warning.

## 2026-07-11 — Queue state lives in the pinned Gitea tracker (#237), not in the handoff file
`key: docs.queue-state-gitea-tracker` · `status: superseded` · `since: 2026-07-11` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: startup.parallel-orientation@2026-07-21`
**Rule:** (superseded) Volatile session/queue state lives in pinned Gitea tracker issue #237 (goal + arc in the body, append-only session-comment log, in-progress/review labels), not in a wholesale-rewritten handoff file; the handoff file keeps only the static kickoff prompt and append-only lore.
**Signals:** last-writer-wins race, claim/`in-progress` label, triage verdict · paths: `docs/handoffs/chicorytv-issue-queue.md` · issues: #237, #520
**Mechanics:** superseded by `scripts/select-queue.sh` (ersatztv#520); see `docs/decisions.md``startup.parallel-orientation`
Each record below moved to its own file under `records/` (ersatztv#610); the rationale is
unchanged. Resolve by **key** — that is the stable identity. A date-based pointer from
another doc or an old issue comment should land here and then follow the link.
With multiple sessions/agents working the repo in parallel, the old protocol — every session
wholesale-rewrites `docs/handoffs/chicorytv-issue-queue.md` on main (session state + queue +
next-session prompt) — became a last-writer-wins race. New protocol: **volatile queue state
moved to Gitea**, which is concurrency-safe by construction. Pinned tracker issue **#237**
holds the goal + ordered arc in its body (edited rarely, only on arc changes, re-read before
edit) and an append-only session-comment log (fixed template: Closed / Filed / Triage /
Arc change / Recommended next). Milestone `Blazor removal (#91 phase b)` + the `review` and
`in-progress` labels are the machine-queryable view. Sessions **claim** an issue before working
it (`in-progress` label + claim comment; the tiny read→claim race window is accepted, later
claimant backs off; stale claims — no commits/comments ~48h — may be taken over with a comment).
Every new issue gets an explicit end-of-session triage verdict — gate-blocker (milestone + arc
slot) or backlog (label only) — so review findings adjust the queue only through that step and
the arc doesn't drift. The handoff file keeps only the **static kickoff prompt** and the
**append-only Lessons lore** (per-session prompts are gone; task context lives in issue bodies).
- 2026-07-11 — Queue state lives in the pinned Gitea tracker (#237), not in the handoff file — [`docs.queue-state-gitea-tracker`](docs/queue-state-gitea-tracker.md)
**Why superseded (#520, 2026-07-21):** the arc completed and #237 closed (2026-07-13); a closed
tracker cannot serve as live queue state, and continuing to read it as such was a live regression
risk (an agent skimming an old comment or this very record could re-treat #237's prose as current).
`scripts/select-queue.sh` (2026-07-19) already replaced the mechanical parts of this rule with a
deterministic, live-Gitea-only query — this record's job was really "queue state lives in Gitea,
not in the handoff file," and that half is still true; what's superseded is the *specific store*
(#237's body/comments) now that maintenance/backlog mode has no arc to narrate. See
`startup.parallel-orientation` for the replacement: two concurrent session-start tracks
(orientation via the docs/decisions catalog + `docs/README.md` map, and selection via the script),
with #237 reduced to a single archival breadcrumb.

Replace-all aggregate PUTs had **no** optimistic concurrency — a stale second tab silently overwrote a

reference aggregate; PRs 24 fan it out. The full ratified design + independent-review hardening is

- **Token = uniform plain `int Version`** on each root implementing `IVersionedAggregate`, EF-mapped
`.IsConcurrencyToken()`, one dual-provider migration (`AddAggregateVersions`, `defaultValue: 0`). **Not**
a reused `DateUpdated` (tick-collision, SQLite TEXT precision, couples UI cosmetics to correctness) and
**not** a MySQL-native rowversion (portability over provider-native).
- **412 Precondition Failed**, not 409 — 409 stays the §3a EntityLocker "build in progress" guard;
distinct codes → distinct SPA UX. New `PreconditionFailedError : BaseError` → 412 in `ApiResults.ToErrorResult`.
- **Pre-check AND EF token both required.** The handler pre-check (a standalone `Either` introduced AFTER
the validation pipeline — never via `Apply`, which `Join()`-flattens the subtype to 422) gives a clean
412; the unconditional `root.Version++` + `IsConcurrencyToken` UPDATE-guard + a `SaveChangesWithConcurrencyGuard`
backstop closes the residual load→save TOCTOU (`DbUpdateConcurrencyException` → 412).
- **Unconditional bump** (not "only when a child changed"): EF writes the root row only when a scalar
differs, so a no-op PUT-back must still bump to fire the token and rotate every other client's ETag.
- **Config-only aggregate boundary**: every mutating handler of a root's *editor-visible config state*
bumps `Version` (incl. bulk `ExecuteUpdate/Delete` writers via `.SetProperty`); regenerated build output
(playout items/history) is outside the token — neither bumped nor guarded.
- **Header-only ETag**, strong tag of the decimal `Version`; parsed/emitted by `ConcurrencyHeaders`. The
successful PUT returns the new ETag (else a same-tab second save 412s against its own write).
- **Phasing**: Phase 1 (this arc) = a missing `If-Match` force-writes (zero breakage) while the SPA starts
echoing; Phase 2 (a later PR) flips missing → **428** after every editor echoes and one release soaks.
`If-Match: *` stays the scripted force-write escape hatch.
- **Child stable-identity is OUT of #253** (the "moved fill-group item inherits the wrong slot's state"
concern on the positional reconcile) — root-anchored versioning is orthogonal to it; split to **#259**.
- **If-Match status semantics** (non-canonical/weak/list → 400) are fail-safe; the stricter RFC 7232
"valid-but-non-matching → 412" refinement is deferred to #197 (**#265**).
## 2026-07-11 — #253 PR3: Diff + Scalar concurrency fan-out (Collection / Playout×2 / MultiCollection / RerunCollection)
`key: concurrency.diff-scalar-fanout` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-11` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** The frozen Block optimistic-concurrency recipe (api-conventions §7a) fans out to Collection/Playout×2/MultiCollection/RerunCollection, keeping a guard-returned `PreconditionFailedError` out of any handler's generic `catch(Exception)`→422 mapping, and preserving each aggregate's existing `SaveChangesAsync() > 0` gate semantics under the new unconditional `Version++`.
**Signals:** concurrency fan-out, PreconditionFailedError, SaveChangesWithConcurrencyGuard · paths: `api-conventions.md` §7a · issues: #253, #269, #232, #197
**Mechanics:** `RootWriterForceVersionTests`-adjacent handler tests; `api-conventions.md` §7a
**Context.** PR3 of the #253 optimistic-concurrency arc fans the frozen Block recipe (api-conventions §7a)
across the five Diff/Scalar aggregates. Three judgment calls beyond the mechanical copy:
**H1 — Playout `catch(Exception)`→422.** The two Playout replace handlers wrap `SaveChangesAsync` in a
`catch(Exception)` that maps any exception to a bare `BaseError` (→ 422). Rather than let the guard's
concurrency failure be reshaped into a 422, the guarded save (`SaveChangesWithConcurrencyGuard`) returns a
`PreconditionFailedError` **Left as a value** and the handler returns it before the post-commit block —
so it never reaches the catch. Proven by the pre-check-subtype tests (a `.Apply` flatten would fail
`ShouldBeOfType<PreconditionFailedError>`) plus a non-vacuous Playout racing-save test.
**M2 — the `SaveChangesAsync() > 0` gates.** RerunCollection and Collection-custom-order run their
playout-refresh **unconditionally** on a successful save (the unconditional `Version++` makes the old gate
always-true; the "nothing changed" branch is dead). MultiCollection is the exception: it saved the name
first specifically so a name-only change wouldn't rebuild playouts, so we bump `Version` on that **first**
save and leave the **second** (items) save's `> 0` gate intact — a name-only edit still bumps + rotates the
ETag but does not rebuild. Enumerating every behavior the gate provided before reworking it (the #232 lesson).
**Sibling-writer scope (deferred).** §7a's config-only boundary says every writer of an aggregate's
editor-visible config bumps `Version`. PR3 ships the five primary endpoints' full contract + the one
design-named bulk writer (`UpdateDefaultDecoHandler`, safe via `.SetProperty`). It **defers** the other
same-root non-bulk config writers (`UpdateCollectionHandler`, `RemoveItemsFromCollectionHandler`,
`UpdatePlayoutHandler`, the `ScheduleFile` handlers) and the repository-mediated `Add*ToCollection` family.
Rationale: the primary endpoints' own bump+guard fully cover the two-tab lost-update the issue targets;
the deferred writers only affect cross-editor ETag *rotation*, and adding an unconditional bump to a handler
that uses plain `SaveChangesAsync` (not the guard) converts a latent lost-update into a **new 500**
(`DbUpdateConcurrencyException`) — doing it safely needs a uniform guard+bump+412 pass of its own, better
done with the #197 contract work. Tracked as a follow-up issue.
**VMs.** `Playout.Version` surfaces via `PlayoutNameViewModel` (required arg); the three collection VMs
(`MediaCollectionViewModel`, `MultiCollectionViewModel`, `RerunCollectionViewModel`) carry `int Version = 0`
(defaulted — 0 for the selection-placeholder constructions, real value from the Mapper projection).
Header-only via ETag, never echoed in a response body (the Block precedent).
**Post-merge addendum (PR3 review, #269).** Activating the `Version` token means EF guards *every* root
UPDATE, so non-participating root-scalar writers that use plain `SaveChangesAsync` (playout settings /
schedule-file / on-demand-checkpoint, collection name) would 500 on a concurrent bump. The realistic
UPDATE writers were fixed in-PR with `ConcurrencyExtensions.SaveChangesForcingVersion` (Phase-1
force-write on conflict: adopt the stored token, retry, never revert the concurrent bump). The deferral
above is re-scoped to the DELETE handlers + repository `Add*` writers only (→ #269).
## 2026-07-11 — Stable child identity for schedule-item replace (#259, split from #252/#253)
`key: concurrency.schedule-item-child-identity` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-11` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** `PUT /api/schedules/{id}/items` reconciles by an optional round-tripped child `Id` (null/absent/0 ⇒ new item), never by array position, so fill-group/shuffle state follows the logical item across reorders; an unknown or duplicate id is rejected 422 (checked after the §7a `CheckVersion`, so 412 precedes 422).
**Signals:** stable child identity, schedule-item replace, id-based reconcile · paths: `api-conventions.md` §7c · issues: #259, #252, #253, #197
**Mechanics:** `docs/api-conventions.md` §7c
`PUT /api/schedules/{id}/items` now reconciles by an optional round-tripped child id, not by array
position, so an item's persisted fill-group/shuffle state (`PlayoutScheduleItemFillGroupIndex`, FK
`OnDelete(Cascade)`) follows the logical item across reorders/inserts instead of being inherited by
whatever previously held its new slot. Contract + rules in **api-conventions §7c**. Key decisions:
- **`ScheduleItemRequest.Id` (`int?`)**: null/absent/`0` ⇒ new item (controller normalizes `0`→null so the
handler is two-state). Any id present ⇒ id-based reconcile; a fully id-less payload keeps the verbatim
positional fallback (legacy; retires with the §7a Phase-2 `If-Match`→428 flip).
- **Unknown or duplicate id ⇒ 422, nothing persisted**; the guards live in the handler **after** §7a
`CheckVersion`, so **412 precedes 422** — a client that is both version-stale and id-stale gets the reload
signal, not a payload-bug signal. Rationale for reject-not-insert on an unknown id: under Phase-1
force-write a stale id is a live lost-update signal, so silently inserting-as-new would duplicate the item
and return a different id than the client sent (the exact class §7a exists to surface). This is also the
correct #197 posture — never honor an unrecognized identifier.
- **Scope = schedule items only.** Blocks/templates/deco-templates/playlists stay positional: their children
are stateless config rows (no FK'd state to misattribute; #3/#4 have no GET child id). Child ids are added
only where a child row anchors server-side state; the contract can be retrofitted per-endpoint later
(field stays optional) — so this is not #197 ossification pressure.
- **TPT subtype change at a matched id** stays delete+insert (EF can't retype in place); state resets and a
new id is returned, so the SPA must re-seed item state from the PUT response (a stale id on a second save
now 422s).
## 2026-07-12 (#269 — non-If-Match root writers force-write past a concurrent Version bump)
`key: concurrency.force-write-non-ifmatch` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** Any handler that leaves a versioned root `Modified` or `Deleted` but takes no `If-Match` (deletes, item add/remove bumpers, scalar-config writers) must save through `ConcurrencyExtensions.SaveChangesForcingVersion` — force-write past a concurrent `Version` bump rather than throw an unhandled `DbUpdateConcurrencyException` (500).
**Signals:** force-write, non-If-Match writers, DbUpdateConcurrencyException · paths: `ConcurrencyExtensions.SaveChangesForcingVersion` · issues: #269, #253, #302, #197
**Mechanics:** `RootWriterForceVersionTests`; `docs/api-conventions.md` §7a
**Routing the aggregate delete handlers + `UpdateProgramScheduleHandler` through `SaveChangesForcingVersion`.**
Once #253 made each replace-all root's `Version` an `IsConcurrencyToken`, EF started guarding *every*
UPDATE **and DELETE** of that row with `WHERE Version=@orig` — so any writer that is not part of the
If-Match contract but still saves via plain `SaveChangesAsync` throws an unhandled
`DbUpdateConcurrencyException`→**500** if a replace-all editor bumps the row in its narrow load→save window.
PR3 already force-wrote the exposed *UPDATE* siblings (Playout settings/`ScheduleFile`/checkpoint,
`UpdateCollectionHandler`); a completeness sweep for #269 found the gap was wider than reported —
**18 writers** in total, all on plain `SaveChangesAsync`. **The correct exposure filter is "any handler
that leaves a versioned root `Modified` or `Deleted`", NOT just `Version`-bumpers + deletes** — an early
sweep used the narrower filter and a review of PR #302 caught what it missed (`ErasePlayoutHistory` below):
- the **nine versioned-root delete handlers** (`DeletePlayout`/`DeleteCollection`/`DeleteMultiCollection`/
`DeleteRerunCollection`/`DeletePlaylist`/`DeleteBlock`/`DeleteTemplate`/`DeleteDecoTemplate`/
`DeleteProgramSchedule`) — a DELETE is now token-guarded too;
- `UpdateProgramScheduleHandler` (bumps `Version` then saved plainly — the ProgramSchedule case PR3 only
*suspected*);
- the **seven item add/remove bumpers** that PR2 wired to bump their root but left on plain save —
`AddProgramScheduleItem`/`DeleteProgramScheduleItem` and the five
`Add{Items,Movie,Show,Season,Episode}ToPlaylist` handlers;
- **`ErasePlayoutHistoryHandler`** — modifies Playout root **scalars** (`Seed`/`Anchor`/`OnDemandCheckpoint`)
**without** bumping `Version`, inside an explicit transaction with no try/catch → the one the bumper-only
filter missed; reachable via `POST /api/playouts/{id}/erase-items-and-history`.
All now save through `ConcurrencyExtensions.SaveChangesForcingVersion`.
**Two deliberate boundaries (documented, not gaps):** (1) the background build/time-shift Playout-scalar
writers (`BuildPlayoutHandler` via `PlayoutBuilder`'s `Anchor`/`Seed`; `PlayoutTimeShifter`'s
`OnDemandCheckpoint`) are token-guarded too but **intentionally left on plain save** — they never surface a
request-path 500 (`BuildPlayoutHandler` catches → a build-failure `BaseError`; `PlayoutTimeShifter` runs only
via the background worker), and force-writing would be *wrong*: a concurrent config edit that bumped
`Version` also enqueues a rebuild, so failing the in-flight build and letting the rebuild redo it with fresh
config is correct (force-writing would persist output built from stale config). (2)
Item-add force-write can leave a duplicate/gap `Index` (accepted Phase-1 effect): the handler computes the
new index from its stale child list, so if a concurrent replace-all grew the list the item lands at a
now-colliding index (no unique constraint on `PlaylistItem.Index`/`ProgramScheduleItem.Index`) — non-
corrupting, self-correcting on the next edit, still strictly better than the pre-#269 500; a
reload-and-recompute-on-conflict refinement is a candidate for #197. Decision:
**force-write, not 412** — these endpoints take no `If-Match` (an unconditional DELETE/settings-edit should
win over a concurrent editor), matching the Phase-1 force-write posture. A delete has no ETag to rotate, so
it needs only the force-write, not a `Version` bump. A genuine row-deletion race (two concurrent deletes)
still surfaces as a `DbUpdateConcurrencyException` — accepted (rare, non-corrupting, the resource is already
gone). **Still deferred to #197:** *cross-editor ETag rotation* for the non-bumping config siblings and the
scanner-shared `Add*ToCollection` family (they don't 500 — they insert children / `ExecuteDelete`, neither
of which is token-guarded — they just don't rotate an open editor's ETag). Non-vacuously tested by racing a
bump *through the handler* via a pre-tracked context (`RootWriterForceVersionTests`), plus an explicit
negative control proving the plain-save path throws.
## 2026-07-12 — Cross-editor ETag rotation completed for Collection/Playout config siblings (#269)
`key: concurrency.etag-rotation-completion` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** Every handler that mutates a versioned root's editor-visible config state must bump `Version` (rotating the ETag) with no per-aggregate carve-outs, short-circuiting on a genuine no-op before the bump so idempotent re-submits don't fire spurious rebuild fan-out; `SaveChangesForcingVersion` rebases the retry (stored + pending delta), never adopts the stored token verbatim.
**Signals:** ETag rotation, no-op idempotence, SaveChangesForcingVersion rebase · paths: `CollectionEtagRotationTests`, `PlayoutScheduleFileEtagRotationTests` · issues: #269, #253, #197, #308
**Mechanics:** `docs/api-conventions.md` §7a; `CollectionEtagRotationTests`, `PlayoutScheduleFileEtagRotationTests`
The #253 optimistic-concurrency contract (§7a) had a documented tail: the non-If-Match config-sibling
writers of a versioned root mutated editor-visible state **without** bumping `Version`, so editing through
them did not rotate an open editor's ETag (a cross-editor invalidation gap — never a lost-update or a 500,
which the primary endpoints' bump+guard already cover). #269's first slice (PR #302) removed the 500 exposure
by routing those writers through `SaveChangesForcingVersion`; this slice completes the **rotation**.
Handlers now bumping `Version` (all via `SaveChangesForcingVersion`, since they take no `If-Match` → a
concurrent replace-all bump force-writes, never 412/500): the Collection `Add*ToCollection` family (11
handlers) and `RemoveItemsFromCollectionHandler` bump `Collection.Version`; `UpdateCollectionHandler`
(name/flag), `UpdatePlayoutHandler` (`DailyRebuildTime`), and the three `ScheduleFile` writers
(`UpdateSequential`/`UpdateScripted`/`UpdateExternalJsonPlayout`) — which already force-wrote — now also bump.
Decisions frozen (ratified with Fable before implementation, feeding the #197 contract freeze):
- **Rotate on every editor-visible config change, no per-aggregate carve-outs.** §7a's config-only boundary
("every mutating handler of a root's editor-visible config bumps `Version`") already held for Playlist
`Add*`/schedule item writers; the Collection/Playout siblings were an inconsistency, not a judgment call. A
membership add rotating an open custom-order editor's ETag (→ 412 → reload) is correct: its list is genuinely
stale. Blast radius of the aggressive-but-safe rotation is a reload, never data loss.
- **No-op idempotence — the trap Fable caught.** These handlers gate their reindex/`BuildPlayout` fan-out on
`SaveChanges() > 0`. An *unconditional* bump makes that gate always-true, so an idempotent re-add / same-value
re-submit would fire spurious rebuilds across every playout using the aggregate. Fix: short-circuit a genuine
no-op **before** the bump — the Add handlers by an explicit membership check (which also fixes the latent
duplicate-`CollectionItem` insert on a *sequential* re-add; two *concurrent* same-item adds can still both
pass the check and the loser 500s on the composite-PK unique violation — `SaveChangesForcingVersion` catches
only `DbUpdateConcurrencyException`, not `DbUpdateException`. That race is narrow and pre-existing, deferred
to #308), the scalar writers (`UpdateCollection`, `UpdatePlayout`, the
three `ScheduleFile` writers) by `ChangeTracker.HasChanges()`. A no-op neither bumps nor rebuilds nor rotates
the ETag — which is itself correct (nothing changed).
- **The `Add*ToCollection` family is not repository-mediated.** #269's original framing ("repository-mediated,
shared with the scanner hot path") was wrong: `IMediaCollectionRepository` is read-only; each handler loads
the `Collection` into its own `dbContext` and writes directly. So the rotation bump is a pure API-layer
concern and the scanner's separate membership-write path is untouched — a background scan does **not** rotate
the editor ETag (correct: background indexing is not an editor action).
- **Force-write rebases the bump, never adopts the stored token verbatim (Codex review of this PR).**
`SaveChangesForcingVersion` originally resolved a conflict by setting current=original=stored — which
silently *discarded* a sibling's pending `Version++` when a versioned writer committed in its load→save
window (sibling loads 1, bumps to pending 2, concurrent PUT commits 2 → retry wrote 2, so the concurrent
writer's ETag "2" stayed valid and the rotation was lost under exactly the race it exists for). Fixed in
this PR (it affects all 25 bumpers routed through the helper, including the pre-existing playlist/schedule
ones): the retry now rebases — original = stored, current = stored + (pending current pending original) —
so a bumper lands at stored+1 and a non-bumper (delta 0, e.g. `ErasePlayoutHistory`) adopts stored unchanged.
The race tests assert the post-race Version (3, not 2) and fail against the verbatim-adopt implementation.
- **No new status codes.** These endpoints take no `If-Match` and force-write, so they never 412; no
`[ProducesResponseType(...412...)]` and no OpenAPI regen (response types unchanged). Only §7a prose changes.
Tests: `CollectionEtagRotationTests` (rotation + no-op-without-bump-or-rebuild + force-write-past-concurrent-bump
for Add/Remove/Update) and `PlayoutScheduleFileEtagRotationTests` (ScheduleFile rotation + no-op-without-refresh),
the no-op guard proven non-vacuous by inverting the membership check. The `#265` RFC-7232 If-Match parser
refinement (valid-but-non-matching/weak/list → 412 not 400) is a **separate** PR (disjoint surface: the shared
parser + `CheckVersion`, not the handler saves). Refs #253 #269 #197 · `api-conventions.md` §7a.
## 2026-07-12 — If-Match evaluates per RFC 7232: valid-but-non-matching → 412, only grammar violations → 400 (#265)
`key: concurrency.ifmatch-rfc7232` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-12` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** `ConcurrencyHeaders.ParseIfMatch` is a real RFC 7232 entity-tag/list parser: a syntactically-valid tag that doesn't strong-match (weak/empty/non-canonical/out-of-range/list) returns 412, and only a genuine grammar violation returns 400.
**Signals:** RFC 7232, If-Match parsing, strong-tag matching · paths: `ConcurrencyHeaders`, `IfMatchCondition`, `VersionedAggregateExtensions.CheckVersion` · issues: #265, #253, #197
**Mechanics:** `docs/api-conventions.md` §7a
Closing the last #253 concurrency-contract piece. `ConcurrencyHeaders.ParseIfMatch` previously classified
**any** non-canonical/weak/list `If-Match` value as `Malformed → 400` (a deliberate fail-safe: reject rather
than risk a stale write, deferred from the reference-aggregate PR). That was RFC-incorrect. Per **RFC 7232
§3.1**, a syntactically-valid entity-tag that simply doesn't strong-match must return **412 Precondition
Failed**, and **400** is reserved for a genuine grammar violation.
**What changed.** The parser is now a real RFC 7232 entity-tag/list parser (`If-Match = "*" / 1#entity-tag`).
It **scans** the list (it does *not* `Split(',')` — a comma is a valid `etagc`, so it can appear inside a quoted
opaque-tag: `"3,5"` is ONE tag, and a comma separates members only outside the quotes), trims only RFC OWS
(SP/HTAB — not `string.Trim()`, which would strip NBSP and let `" * "` masquerade as the `*` force-write),
validates each member as `[ "W/" ] DQUOTE *etagc DQUOTE`, and collects the versions of the **strong** members
whose opaque text is the exact canonical decimal we emit. Outcomes:
- **weak** (`W/"3"`), **empty** (`""`), **non-canonical** (`"03"`, `"3.0"`, `"+3"`), **out-of-range**
(`"99999999999999999999"`) → valid tags that contribute no version → **412** (a `Version`-kind with an
*empty* candidate set is a guaranteed no-match).
- **list** (`"3", "5"`) → any strong member that matches proceeds; weak/non-canonical members drop out.
- genuine grammar violations (unquoted `3`, SP inside the tag `" 3 "`, unterminated `"3`, `garbage`, a
separator-only header) → **400**.
**Type reshape.** `IfMatchCondition.ExpectedVersion : Option<int>``ExpectedVersions : Option<Seq<int>>`
(`None` = force-write; `Some(set)` = strong-match against the set, empty ⇒ always 412), and
`VersionedAggregateExtensions.CheckVersion(Option<int>)``CheckVersion(Option<Seq<int>>)` = set membership.
This threads through all 10 replace/update commands + handlers + request mappers + 9 controllers uniformly; no
wire-contract change (400 and 412 were already declared on every PUT; the field is header-derived and internal,
so no OpenAPI/DTO change).
*Why now, not #197:* it is the shared parser all replace-all PUTs copy, and the 412-vs-404 ordering the issue
worried about was already correct (each handler loads/validates → 404 before `CheckVersion`). *Why safe:* the
first-party SPA only ever echoes the single canonical strong tag we emit, so no shipped client changes behavior;
the change only makes a hand-written/tooling `If-Match` get the RFC-correct status. Docs: `api-conventions.md`

## 2026-07-18 — Concurrent same-item add is idempotent, not a 500: catch the unique-violation per provider (#308)
`key: concurrency.idempotent-concurrent-add` · `status: active` · `since: 2026-07-18` · `supersedes: none` · `superseded-by: none`
**Rule:** A concurrent duplicate `Add*ToCollection` that loses the race on the composite-key unique constraint is treated as an idempotent no-op (skip the reindex/rebuild fan-out), not a 500 — detected via a provider-specific `TvContext.IsUniqueConstraintViolation` delegate defaulting to "no".
**Signals:** idempotent add, unique-constraint violation, provider error classifier · paths: `TvContext.IsUniqueConstraintViolation`, `SqliteErrorClassifier`, `MySqlErrorClassifier` · issues: #308, #269, #253
**Mechanics:** `docs/api-conventions.md` §7a ("Idempotent insert under concurrency"); `ConcurrencyExtensions.TrySaveChangesForcingVersion`
**Decision.** The `Add*ToCollection` family's membership pre-check (#269) is not atomic with the insert, so two
*concurrent* adds of the same item both observe it absent and both stage the `CollectionItem` composite key; the
loser's `SaveChangesForcingVersion` threw a unique/PK-violation `DbUpdateException` (SQLite error 19 / MySQL 1062)
it did not catch → **500**. We now treat that loss as an **idempotent no-op**, not an error: the desired end state
(the item is a member) already holds because the racing winner inserted it, rotated the ETag, and fanned out the
rebuild.
**Mechanism.** A `bool`-returning sibling `ConcurrencyExtensions.TrySaveChangesForcingVersion` wraps
`SaveChangesForcingVersion` and catches *only* a classified unique/PK violation, returning `false`. The 10
single-item handlers return `Unit.Default` on `false` (skip the reindex/rebuild fan-out — the winner did it). The
bulk `AddItemsToCollection` handler cannot no-op — that would silently drop the non-colliding items when a batch
partially overlaps a concurrent add — so it **retries** on a fresh context against recomputed membership (bounded
loop; the common no-collision path runs once).
**Provider seam.** Detection is provider-specific but the Application layer must not reference the provider
packages, so it follows the existing `TvContext` static-provider-config idiom (`IsSqlite`, `LastInsertedRowId`): a
settable `TvContext.IsUniqueConstraintViolation` delegate, pointed at `SqliteErrorClassifier` (extended codes 1555
PK / 2067 UNIQUE) or `MySqlErrorClassifier` (`Number == 1062`) from `Startup.cs`, defaulting to a conservative
"no" so an unwired provider never silently swallows a save failure. Chosen over DI to avoid threading a new
service through 11 handlers, and because the provider discriminator already lives as a `TvContext` static.
**Scope boundary.** `Add*ToPlaylist` is deliberately **untouched**: `PlaylistItem` has its own identity PK and no
unique index on `(PlaylistId, MediaItemId)` — a playlist may legitimately contain the same item more than once, so
there is no constraint to violate.
**Tests.** A negative-control anchor proves the race genuinely throws a classified `DbUpdateException`; the fix's
end-to-end handler tests reproduce a *real cross-connection* race via a shared-cache SQLite harness + a
`SavingChanges` interceptor that inserts the conflicting row on another connection mid-save (the single-connection
in-memory fixture cannot). Every fix-dependent test was verified to fail with the catch disabled. Mechanics:

Reviewer#20 F7/F8/F9. Normalizes the queue-triggering `/api/*` endpoints onto one contract, closes the two
F9 `Libraries.razor` parity gaps, and hardens the Trakt batch-lock lifecycle. Much of the F8 surface was
**already normalized** by #232 (library scan → `QueueLibraryScanResult` 202/404/409/422) and #215 (per-id
playout mutations + reset → 409 lock guard) — this issue finished the remaining outliers.
**Normalized async-op contract** (queue-triggering endpoints): **202 Accepted** = work queued; **404
ProblemDetails** = entity missing (controller pre-check); **409 ProblemDetails** = lock held (the running
job, or a mutation racing it — §3a/§3b); **422 ProblemDetails** = domain precondition (sync disabled /
unsupported / start failed). Trakt was the reference implementation. Changes made:
- `MaintenanceController.EmptyTrash` — error path **500 text/plain → 404/422 ProblemDetails** (`ToErrorResult`).
- `MaintenanceController.CleanArtwork` — silent **200 → 202** (fire-and-forget enqueue). No SPA consumer.
- `LibrariesController.ScanShow` — conflated **400 `{error}` → 202/404/409/422** via a new
`QueueShowScanResult` enum (6 outcomes incl. an honest `ScanFailed`→422, distinct from `Unsupported`).
- `ChannelController.ResetPlayout`**200 → 202** (queue-triggering; 404/409 unchanged).
- `PlayoutController.ResetAll`**202 (no body) → 202 + `ResetAllPlayoutsResponseModel`** reporting
`queuedPlayoutIds` / `skippedLocked` / `skippedUnsupported` (replaces the silent skip; still 202, still
skips locked/ExternalJson by design per §3a — now it *reports* what it skipped).
- `TroubleshootController.TroubleshootPlayback` — bare body-less `NotFound()` → **404/422 ProblemDetails**
with distinguishing detail. **Status codes the SPA HLS player depends on were preserved** — verified
`HlsPlayer.tsx` never branches on this endpoint's status (playback state comes from the separate
`/api/troubleshoot/playback/status` poll); only the error *body* was enriched.
**Playout build observability**: the list endpoint (`GET /api/playouts`) already stamped `isLocked` +
`BuildStatus` on `PlayoutListItemResponseModel` (#215); this issue adds **`isLocked` to the single-playout
`GET /api/playouts/{id}`** (`PlayoutResponseModel`), so the detail poll surface carries the §3a lock flag
too. No dedicated `GET /api/playouts/{id}/status` push channel was added — the flag on the existing GETs is
the HTTP-observable substitute for Blazor's live lock event, matching the `GET /api/trakt/status` precedent.
**F9 parity endpoints** (the `Libraries.razor` deletion gate — #202 did NOT close these):
- **Deep scan**: `POST /api/libraries/{id}/scan` gains `?deep=false`, threaded through
`QueueLibraryScanByLibraryId(LibraryId, DeepScan=false)` into `ForceSynchronize{Plex,Jellyfin,Emby}LibraryById(id, deep)`
(was hardcoded `false`). Non-breaking: existing callers omit it.
- **External-collections scan**: new `POST /api/media-sources/{plex|jellyfin|emby}/{id}/scan-collections?deep=false`
on the three #202 media-source controllers, dispatching `Synchronize{X}Collections(id, ForceScan:true, deep)`.
Each pre-checks source existence (404), acquires the per-source **collections** lock (`Lock{X}Collections()`
the lock *is* the running scan, so a false = **409**), then enqueues and returns 202; the controller
compensating-unlocks in a `catch` if the enqueue throws (§3b), and `ScannerService` releases in its `finally`.
Thin SPA clients shipped (`scanLibrary(id, deep)`, `scanCollections`); **the SPA deep-scan / collections
buttons are the removal PR's remaining parity work** (parity doc §5).
**F7 Trakt batch-lock leak fix**: the global Trakt lock was released only when the *terminal* batch message
(`Unlock: true`) was processed; a `WorkerService` shutdown/cancellation before that message leaked the lock
permanently (subsequent Trakt ops 409 until restart — same class as #231/#233/#234). Fix: `WorkerService`
now releases the Trakt lock in a `finally` on read-loop exit if still held. Non-vacuous regression test proven
against an inverted-condition control.
**Accepted-by-design** (per the issue's decision-record ask): the worker's channels are **unbounded** and
there is **no shutdown drain** — messages still queued at process exit are dropped. This is acceptable because
the entity locks are **in-memory singletons that die with the process**, so a dropped message can't strand a
lock across restarts (the F7 `finally` covers the *within-process* shutdown-break leak, which is the only way
a lock outlives its batch while the process keeps running). Adding a bounded-channel backpressure / graceful
drain is out of scope and would not fix a correctness bug.

#415 was deferred from #72 scope item (b): "empty schedule" and "broken/missing source" faults were real but uncomputed, each explicitly ruled out in the superseded record for a stated reason. This record reverses both rulings now that the blocking condition — the #383/#384 auto-tune status taxonomy churning the DTO shape — has resolved (#414 landed the origin column as a sibling, non-health field).
**Built-timeline (kind-agnostic) detection, not per-kind config introspection.** Every fault falls out of what the scheduler has already materialized — `Playout.BuildStatus` (`{LastBuild, Success, Message}`) for never-built/build-failed, and `Playout.Items` (the built `PlayoutItem` timeline, each carrying `MediaItemId`/`MediaItem`) for empty-upcoming and broken-source. Because the timeline is the same shape for all five `PlayoutScheduleKind` values (Classic, Block, Sequential, Scripted, ExternalJson), coverage is *by construction* — the #71 "verify a shared primitive covers ALL variants" trap, which the superseded record's own `EmptyScheduleHealthCheck` (Classic-only) fell into, cannot bite here. Scripted, which has no schedule entity to introspect at all, needs no special case. `MediaItem.State` flips on scan (not build), which rules out a build-time snapshot — detection is necessarily read-time, costed as one bounded `GROUP BY PlayoutId` aggregate query (not an N+1) over upcoming `PlayoutItem`s.
**Five-fault taxonomy, rolled up to one `status`.** `NoPlayout` (0 playouts, the absorbed #72 fact), `NeverBuilt` (assessable playout never built), `BuildFailed` (last build `Success == false`), `EmptyUpcoming` (built OK, 0 upcoming items), `BrokenSource` (≥1 upcoming item pointing at a `FileNotFound`/`Unavailable` `MediaItem`). Rollup: `Problems` if any contributing playout has a fault, `Healthy` if any is assessable-and-clean with none, `Unknown` if nothing is assessable — never a false `Healthy` and never a false `Problems`.
**The assessable gate distinguishes absence signals from presence signals.** `NeverBuilt`/`EmptyUpcoming` are inferred from *missing* content and are suppressed for `PlayoutMode == OnDemand` (an idle on-demand playout legitimately has no fresh build and drains its timeline between tune-ins — without suppression this is a false-positive storm across every on-demand channel; a suppressed absence signal contributes `Unknown`, not a false `Problems`). `BuildFailed`/`BrokenSource` are proven by content that *is* there and is bad, so they stay live in every `PlayoutMode` — they only fire when the bad thing actually exists and so cannot false-positive on legitimate idleness.
**Server owns the rollup so SPA and MCP read one verdict.** `health` rides the same `list channels`/`get channel` response both clients already fetch — no second endpoint to correlate by id, and no client re-deriving policy from raw facts (the thing the superseded record explicitly avoided freezing before the taxonomy existed). `PlayoutCount` is retained unchanged on the DTO for backward compatibility (additive-only `/api/v1` freeze); the SPA's "Problems" filter (`web/src/screens/ChannelsScreen.tsx`, `hasProblems`, replacing the old single-fault `willNeverPlay`/"No playout" filter) and per-row badges read `health.status`/`health.faults` instead.
