timothyandClaude Opus 4.8 e364b338e6 feat(425): per-source rotation weights + query corrections for auto-tune channels
Auto-tune channels can now carry per-content-source rotation weights (weighted
round-robin, e.g. 3x Show A / 1x Show B) and query corrections (exclude /
add-untagged), supplied at bulk-create time via an optional
`sources: [{sourceId, weight, excluded}]` on each AutoTunedChannelRequest.

Design (Option A, reuse #70): when a source is customized the channel is backed
by a system-owned MultiCollection of per-source SmartCollections carrying the
weights, with PlaybackOrder.WeightedShuffle -- the exact path
WeightedShuffleCollectionEnumerator already consumes. All-default weights keep
the #69 single-SmartCollection fair-share shape.

- Discriminators: TV -> live show_title:"X" (episodes carry no parent-show id in
  the index); movies -> stable id:{mediaItemId}.
- Materialization is axis-dependent: TV materializes every base show individually
  (un-weighted shows keep per-show fair-share) + a live remainder at weight 1;
  MovieGenre materializes only touched movies + one count-weighted remainder.
- Remainder = (base) AND NOT (materialized union excluded) -- a partition.
- New nullable OwnedByChannelId on SmartCollection + MultiCollection
  (dual-provider migration); owned rows are hidden from the collection lists and
  cascade-cleaned on channel delete.

Tests: AutoTuneAxisMap query/partition units; DB-backed weighted-path handler
tests (TV materialize-all, movie count-remainder, exclusion, no-customization
fallback); delete-cleanup. Docs: decisions.md, domain-model.md, api-conventions.md;
OpenAPI trio regenerated.

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. Start from its Index, which links the four topic files under docs/decisions/ (large same-topic clusters) and lists the remaining in-file entries.
  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).
