timothyandClaude Opus 4.8 83f753b211 fix(api): #269 rotate aggregate ETag on Collection/Playout config siblings
Complete the #253 optimistic-concurrency contract's cross-editor ETag
rotation tail. The non-If-Match config siblings mutated editor-visible
state without bumping Version, so a concurrent editor of the same root
never invalidated. Now the Collection Add*/Remove handlers bump
Collection.Version, and UpdateCollection / UpdatePlayout / the three
ScheduleFile writers (which already force-wrote past a concurrent bump)
now bump too — all via SaveChangesForcingVersion (no If-Match → force
write, never 412/500).

No-op idempotence (Fable-caught trap): these gate reindex/BuildPlayout
fan-out on SaveChanges()>0, so an unconditional bump would fire spurious
rebuilds on an idempotent re-add / same-value re-submit. Each now
short-circuits a genuine no-op before the bump — Add handlers by an
explicit membership check (also fixing a latent duplicate-CollectionItem
insert), scalar writers by ChangeTracker.HasChanges().

Corrects #269's framing: the Add*ToCollection family is not
repository-mediated (IMediaCollectionRepository is read-only); each
handler writes via its own dbContext, so the scanner's separate
membership path is unaffected (a background scan does not rotate the
editor ETag).

Tests: CollectionEtagRotationTests + PlayoutScheduleFileEtagRotationTests
(rotation, no-op-without-bump-or-rebuild, force-write-past-concurrent-bump),
no-op guard proven non-vacuous by inverting the membership check.
Docs: api-conventions §7a + decisions.md. No new status codes / no
OpenAPI change (these endpoints take no If-Match, never 412).

The #265 RFC-7232 If-Match parser refinement is a separate PR.

fixes #269

docs/ — reading order

Purpose: index of docs/ so a fresh contributor/agent knows what to read and in what order. Update this doc in the same PR that adds, removes, or retitles a doc below.

Read in this order at session start:

  1. CLAUDE.md (repo root) — project intro: architecture, layout, dev commands, conventions.
  2. docs/contributing.md — established code patterns (CQRS/MediatR, LanguageExt, the ChicoryTV SPA, EF Core dual-provider migrations, FFmpeg pipeline, analyzers, testing). Read before any non-trivial change.
  3. docs/domain-model.md — what the app IS: entity glossary, channel→playout→schedule/block concept map, where each concept is edited in the SPA.
  4. docs/api-conventions.md — checklist for adding/changing a /api/* endpoint (controllers, DTOs, error mapping, auth, OpenAPI regen, tests).
  5. docs/spa-conventions.md — playbook for adding a screen to the ChicoryTV React SPA.
  6. docs/e2e-local.md (+ scripts/e2e-local.sh) — how to run a live local instance for manual or Playwright-MCP verification.
  7. docs/testing.md — testing map: what each *.Tests project / web suite covers, golden-file nets, the timezone-independence rule, how to run subsets, the per-PR verification gate.
  8. docs/blazor-route-parity.md — historical record of the completed #91 phase (b) cutover: the Blazor Server UI is removed and every legacy route now 302-redirects to its SPA equivalent (or falls through to the catch-all → /app). Read it for the full legacy→SPA route inventory.
  9. docs/decisions.md — append-only "why" log. Check here before challenging an existing convention.
  10. docs/ci-cd.md — build/test/release pipeline, versioning, dependency management.

Also present in docs/:

  • docs/rest-api.md — REST API design doc for ersatztv#2 (goals, conventions, per-slice plan). Largely superseded day-to-day by docs/api-conventions.md; read this for the original rationale.
  • docs/channels.md — Channel entity field reference.
  • docs/m3u-xmltv.md — M3U/XMLTV generation overview (ChannelPlaylist, GetChannelGuideHandler).
  • docs/fork-strategy.md — divergence policy vs upstream ErsatzTV.
  • docs/design-sync.md — Claude Design ↔ repo screen workflow (#92).
  • docs/endpoint-index.md — generated REST endpoint index (method/path/operationId/summary per OpenAPI tag). Do not edit by hand; regenerated by scripts/generate-endpoint-index.py / scripts/update-openapi.sh.
  • docs/handoffs/chicorytv-issue-queue.md — static session kickoff prompt + workflow lore. Queue state (goal, arc, what's in flight/next) lives in the pinned Gitea tracker ersatztv#237 — read that, not this file, for current state (protocol: decisions.md 2026-07-11).
  • docs/handoffs/rest-api.md — original handoff prompt for kicking off the REST API work (#2).
