Direct play only. The server is a headless GPU-less Xeon: nothing is ever
transcoded or remuxed. A file either plays in the client or it does not.
Measured, not assumed (ffmpeg-generated files with known codecs, played through
Vellum's own stream endpoint in Chrome 155 / Linux):
mp4 h264+aac plays mkv h264+aac PLAYS <- container is fine
mov h264+aac plays webm vp9/opus plays
mp4 av1+opus plays webm vp8/vorbis plays
mp4 hevc+aac AUDIO ONLY, videoWidth stays 0, no error
mkv hevc+flac AUDIO ONLY
avi mpeg4+mp3 fails outright
All seven audio formats play. Two conclusions drive the design: codec matters
and container barely does (mkv+h264 plays, mp4+HEVC does not), and canPlayType
is unreliable in both directions — it says "no" for mov+h264 (which plays) and
"maybe" for mkv+hevc (whose video never decodes).
Therefore playability is a property of the CLIENT, not the file. The server
never declares a file playable; it reports codec facts and each client decides.
That is what makes adding mpv/libvlc/MDK later a matter of registering an engine
rather than re-architecting.
Wave 4 - audio depth
- New MusicPlayer.svelte: real queue, shuffle that walks a fixed permutation
(so "previous" means something and nothing repeats early), repeat off/all/one,
per-track rows, album art, next-track preload.
- AudiobookPlayer: MediaSession (OS media keys + lock screen), playback speed
that SURVIVES a chapter change and persists, sleep timer with countdown that a
manual pause cancels, keyboard shortcuts, next-chapter preload.
- Shared mediaSession.ts written by the coordinator before dispatch so both
players consume one implementation instead of inventing two.
Wave 5 - ffprobe facts
- internal/probe (ffprobe wrapper, optional dependency), migration 0010 adding
vcodec/acodec/width/height/probed_at to media_files, scanner hook, API fields.
- Probing runs only for NEW or CHANGED files and BEFORE the write transaction
opens, so it can never hold SQLite's write lock and a rescan never becomes a
full-library ffprobe sweep. Proven: 797ms probing scan, then 1ms rescan with
probed_at byte-identical.
- ffprobe skips attached_pic so an mp3 with cover art reports no video codec.
- Fixed a real hole: .avi is in the video registry but had no MIME entry, so it
was served as application/octet-stream and could never play.
Wave 6 - the video player
- VideoPlayer.svelte with resume, progress + keepalive final flush, MediaSession,
keyboard shortcuts, multi-file picker, and codec facts shown.
- The honest path is the feature: an HEVC file makes Chrome play audio over a
blank frame with no error, which is the worst possible outcome. The player
detects it and says so, naming the codec and pointing at clients that can.
Coordinator fix to Wave 6: the agent's detection hung off `loadedmetadata`, but
an explicit `type` the browser cannot satisfy makes it reject the source during
selection, so NEITHER loadedmetadata NOR error fires — and the player showed a
working-looking 0:00 with a Play button, exactly the silently-broken state the
component exists to prevent. Added a load watchdog: if the element says nothing
within 2.5s, the source was rejected and the honest notice is shown. Verified
per file afterwards (h264/mkv play at 640 wide; hevc and mpeg4 show their
notices).
Verified end to end, not just compiled: 15 packages pass (including the new
internal/probe), gofmt/vet clean, svelte-check 0/0, and every claim above checked
against a running server. Note the demo's own mp3s are 100 KB of random bytes and
cannot decode; the audio players were proven against generated real audio instead.
Authors are searchable (internal/search, migrations/0009)
- The FTS index covered only title and path, so typing an artist or author
found nothing even though people/item_people already held the credits.
- Rather than a second index, the names are denormalised into a real
media_items.authors column, so the existing external-content FTS and its
triggers keep doing the work; item_people/people triggers recompute it, and
the media_items UPDATE trigger re-indexes automatically.
- Verified: searching "daft punk" now returns Random Access Memories, and so
does the partial "punk".
- The agent found and worked around a real FTS5 external-content bug: on an
UPGRADE the backfill UPDATE fires the delete trigger for rowids not yet in
the fresh index, raising "database disk image is malformed". A rebuild before
the backfill fixes it. This would have broken existing databases while a
fresh install looked fine.
gzip for the SPA (internal/httpapi/static.go)
- 456 KB of JS and 31 KB of CSS were served uncompressed on every cold load.
- Scoped to the embedded SPA assets only, never API or media: compressing a
Range response would break seeking, and wrapping every response would undo
Wave 2's Flusher/ReaderFrom forwarding.
- Compresses only when the client accepts gzip, the response is a compressible
type, there is no Range header, and nothing already set Content-Encoding.
Sets Vary: Accept-Encoding and drops the now-wrong Content-Length.
- Verified by sha256 round-trip (identity vs gzip-decompressed are identical),
and by confirming a Range request still returns 206 with no Content-Encoding.
JS 351,835 -> 108,794 bytes (69% smaller); CSS 80% smaller.
epub.js is code-split (Reader.svelte)
- It was a static import, so ~350 KB was downloaded by everyone on first load
even though most never open an ebook. Now loaded on demand.
- Main bundle 458 KB -> 112 KB (gzipped 149 KB -> 39.5 KB).
- Verified at runtime, which pnpm check cannot: only the main bundle loads
initially, the epubjs chunk is fetched when a book is opened, and the reader
still renders.
Home screen tests (internal/media)
- Coverage 23.4% -> 50.2%. (The 17.9% quoted in the brief was a stale reading;
the agent measured the real baseline by moving its own files aside.)
- Covers the five shelves, counts, Explore's invariants (visibility, no
duplicates, every kind represented, varies across calls, wrap-around),
the list offset/limit/total contract, MostViewed ordering, and — most
importantly — grant scoping, which is the security chokepoint.
Fixed a bug the tests found: Suggestions seeded from revoked libraries
- topEngagement selected the user's most recent progress row with no library
filter, so progress from a library whose grant had been revoked still steered
the home screen — a visible item was labelled "More books" based on content
the user could no longer read. Returned items were always correctly scoped, so
this was an information-flow gap rather than a content leak.
- Now scoped to visible libraries, and the test that pinned the old behaviour
flipped to assert the correct reason.
gofmt/vet clean, 14 packages pass, media tests run 3x for flakiness.
app.css carried a `@media (prefers-color-scheme: light)` block that replaced
EVERY design token with a white and generic-purple palette, and index.html
declared `color-scheme: light dark`. So whenever the OS or browser preferred
light, the app silently discarded the brand — which is indistinguishable from
"the design changed by itself" and is exactly what happened.
This was not introduced by the recent hardening work: the block came in with the
original Svelte commit and was present in the brand commits. It is removed here.
- Deleted the light-mode media query. The charcoal/purple tokens are now the
only tokens.
- Added `color-scheme: dark` to :root and changed the meta tag to `dark`, so
native scrollbars, form controls and the caret follow the brand instead of
rendering white against a dark page.
- Left a comment explaining why there is deliberately no light theme. The
comment deliberately does NOT repeat the old hex values, so that grepping the
built CSS for them stays meaningful — my first verification pass was fooled by
exactly that.
Verified with the browser emulating `prefers-color-scheme: light`: --bg #292929,
--surface #303030, --accent #c084fc, --accent-2 #6d7cff, color-scheme dark. The
built CSS contains zero media queries and zero occurrences of the old accent.
TouchSession throttle (internal/auth)
- Middleware wrote sessions.last_seen on EVERY authenticated request, taking
SQLite's single write lock each time. For media that is severe: one seek in
an audio file fires several Range requests, each taking the write lock and
competing with the scanner and progress saves.
- Now touched at most once per 5 minutes, decided from the LastSeen already
loaded by SessionByToken, so no extra query. A zero interval degrades to the
old per-request behaviour, so a hand-built Authenticator cannot silently stop
updating.
- Verified end to end with an AFTER UPDATE trigger: 20 requests now cause 0
session writes, down from 20.
Response writer forwarding (internal/httpapi)
- statusRecorder wrapped every ResponseWriter but implemented only Write and
WriteHeader, so it did not implement http.Flusher. That silently disabled
early flushing (progressive audio/video) and io.ReaderFrom, which is what
lets io.Copy use sendfile for multi-GB files. Now forwards Flush, Hijack and
ReadFrom, and WriteHeader is idempotent.
Security headers (internal/httpapi)
- Added nosniff, X-Frame-Options: DENY, Referrer-Policy and a CSP. Outermost in
the chain so a recovered panic's 500 still carries them.
- CORRECTION to an earlier claim: I said a malicious EPUB was stored XSS.
That was wrong. epub.js sets iframe sandbox to "allow-same-origin" and only
appends "allow-scripts" when settings.allowScriptedContent is true, which
defaults to false and Reader.svelte never sets. EPUB content cannot execute
script. The CSP is still worth having as defence in depth, but that specific
justification does not hold.
Final flush on teardown (AudiobookPlayer, Reader)
- The last playback/reading position was saved with a fire-and-forget fetch in
onDestroy, which the browser cancels on navigate-away — losing exactly the
thing worth persisting. Now persisted via fetch with keepalive: true, wired
to pagehide and visibilitychange(hidden), latched so the overlapping events
fire one request, and reset when the page becomes visible again so a bfcache
restore still flushes later. sendBeacon was not usable: it is POST-only and
progress is PUT-only.
- Also removed the queueMicrotask track-swap race in AudiobookPlayer: play() is
now driven by onLoadedMetadata once the new src has actually loaded.
Honest readers (Reader, ComicReader)
- registry.go advertises .mobi/.azw3/.fb2 under ebooks, but every ebooks item
was handed to epub.js, which cannot parse them. Now only .epub uses epub.js;
other containers show a message naming the format plus a download link. Items
stay catalogued and downloadable rather than silently vanishing.
- .cbr/.rar comics say the archive format is unsupported instead of surfacing
the server's raw 422 (the server reads zip only).
Verified in a real browser, not just compiled: all six reader surfaces render
(epub iframe, cbz images, audio element, photo, pdf canvas) with zero CSP
violations; .mobi shows the honest message with no epub.js iframe. gofmt/vet
clean, 14 packages pass, svelte-check 0/0.
Known issue, NOT introduced here and NOT fixed: the EPUB reader logs
"Error: No Element Provided" x3 and a TypeError in epub.js injectIdentifier
(doc.getElementsByTagName("head")[0] undefined). Proven pre-existing by A/B
against c50b3cf, and not caused by the test file (spec-correct XHTML) or by
caching (cold browser). Non-fatal: the book still renders. Needs its own
investigation.
Five tasks, four delegated to agents on disjoint files and one on the critical
path. Board and verification log: ~/.opencode/plan/vellum-beta-tasks.md
T1 Async scans (coordinator)
- migration 0007 adds ref_id + result to jobs, indexed by (kind, ref_id, id),
so a job can be found by what it operates on and can report back.
- jobs: EnqueueRef, JobID(ctx) so a handler can attach a result, SetResult.
- POST /libraries/{id}/scan now enqueues and returns 202; a real library takes
longer than any request timeout, and a hanging request looks like a broken
server. GET /libraries/{id}/scan/status reports the latest run.
- Libraries.svelte polls and shows "Scanning…" instead of freezing.
T2 Admin CLI (agent)
- internal/cli: `user add|passwd|list`, `backup <path>` via VACUUM INTO, with
tests. Wired into main.go, which the coordinator kept.
T3 Deploy (agent)
- compose.yml now mounts all six media kinds read-only with :z and carries the
metadata env keys. DEPLOY.md covers volumes, SELinux, admin bootstrap, TLS,
backup and upgrade.
T4 Pagination (agent)
- GET /items takes offset and returns total; Browse loads 60 at a time with
"Load more" and "Showing X of Y" instead of silently truncating at 300.
T5 Password change UI (agent)
- A Password section in Settings with validation, busy and success states.
Verified end to end: scan returns 202 in 0.7 ms and polls to done; the CLI
created a user, changed a password, and produced a complete 240 KB backup while
the server ran; pagination reports total 8 and pages correctly; compose parses
with every mount :z. go vet and 14 test packages pass; svelte-check 0/0.
- Primary accent is now purple (#c084fc); blue-violet (#6d7cff) becomes the
secondary. The primary button uses dark ink on purple for contrast, since
white on that purple is only about 2.5:1.
- The sidebar gets its own surface (--nav-bg, #212121) one step below the page
(#292929) with a stronger divider, so it reads as a distinct rail rather than
blending into the content. Nav link, count and section colours lifted off
--faint onto --muted for legibility against the darker rail.
- Light mode mirrors the same structure.
Verified: accent resolves to #c084fc, secondary to #6d7cff, nav to #212121 on a
#292929 page.
Replaces the gold experiment with the actual brand.
- Palette: brand charcoal (#303030, sampled from the logo's own background)
with the logo's glow as the primary accent (#6d7cff) and its purple
(#c084fc) as a secondary. Text is the palette's white / light gray. Light
mode re-tuned to the same hues.
- Logo: the source mark keyed off its charcoal background to RGBA, cropped to
its content bounds, and added as web/public/logo.png. It now appears in the
sidebar and on the login screen; a square favicon is derived from it and
wired into index.html.
- The featured kicker uses the purple secondary, so both brand hues are present
without adding a second competing accent.
Verified: logo loads in the app, accent resolves to #6d7cff, secondary to
#c084fc, surface to #303030.
The skeleton, not features. Two things felt rushed: the colour had no point of
view, and type and shape came from ad-hoc values.
Design language
- Palette reworked to warm-neutral dark with a single muted gold accent
(#d9a441). The chrome is deliberately colourless because the artwork is the
colour in this app; gold carries emphasis without competing with covers.
Light mode re-tuned to match.
- A real type scale (--fs-xs … --fs-3xl) replaces the ad-hoc rem values, with
fixed line heights and letter-spacing per level. Headings are 620 weight and
tighter; body is a consistent 15px.
- Radii tightened to a 5/8/12 scale, one shadow pair, and the primary button
now uses dark ink on gold for contrast.
Featured carousel
- The banner rotates through up to six items — in progress first, then most
viewed, then newest — drawn only from the libraries the user was granted, so
it can never show something they cannot open.
- Auto-advances every 8s, pauses on hover and focus, and has dots plus arrows
for manual control. Slides crossfade, and the ambient wash changes with them.
Verified in the built bundle: accent resolves to #d9a441, six slides, rotation
confirmed across three items, and hover pauses it.
Not new features — motion, focus, and depth, kept restrained.
- Motion tokens: one easing curve and three durations, used everywhere, so the
app moves as a single thing rather than component by component. Honours
prefers-reduced-motion by disabling all of it.
- View transitions: navigating fades and rises the content instead of swapping
it, and each view starts scrolled to the top.
- Topbar frosts once the content scrolls, so the header separates from the page
without a permanent bar of chrome.
- Featured area on Home: the item you are most likely to act on (something in
progress, else the newest), with the cover as an ambient blurred wash. The
colour comes from the artwork, not a decorative gradient, so it belongs to
whatever is on screen.
- Cards: lift and scale on hover, a scrim so the action glyph always has
contrast, a kind-appropriate glyph (play / read / expand), press feedback,
and a visible keyboard focus ring.
- Shelves: edge fades and arrow buttons that appear only when the row actually
continues that way; the scrollbar is hidden and the row snaps.
- Item page: ambient wash from its own cover.
- Global :focus-visible ring.
Verified in the built bundle: featured renders the in-progress item, hover
scales a 192px card to 197.8px with the glyph visible, and the item page tints
from its artwork.
- All 50 font-size declarations converted from px to rem, so a single root
value scales headings, labels and body together. The root is now 15px, a
deliberate ~7% increase over the previous 14px.
- Card width and grid column width are now --card-w / --grid-min variables,
driven by --card-scale independently of text. Defaults bumped too: shelf
cards 150 -> 160px, grid columns 148 -> 158px.
- Appearance panel (nav item, visible to everyone): Text size and Card size
as segmented controls, a live preview, and a reset. Settings are stored in
localStorage, per device rather than per account, because a TV across the
room wants bigger text than a laptop and the same person uses both.
- nav: 'settings' was missing from the View union after the home rewrite;
added back along with the Appearance entry.
Verified in the built bundle: root font 15px by default; "Larger" scales it to
19.2px; "Large" cards scale 160 to 192px; both persist across a reload and are
independent of each other.
The landing screen now reads as a product rather than a list.
- migration 0006: item_views, per user. "Most viewed" is personal — what I
re-read is not what you re-read. Counted when an item is opened in a reader,
so the number means consumed, not merely fetched.
- Suggestions: unstarted items related to what the user has been consuming —
same author first, then same kind, then recent as a floor. Each carries the
reason it was chosen ("More by Daft Punk"), because a suggestion nobody can
understand is noise.
- Explore: a mixed sample across every kind, excluding in-progress items so the
zone is discovery rather than a repeat.
- Home fetches all five shelves in one request; the screen never pops in.
- web: Shelf gained subtitle/badge support, Card gained a subtitle, and the
home renders four shelves plus a wrapping Explore grid.
Three bugs found and fixed while verifying:
- Continue showed a multi-track audiobook once per chapter. GROUP BY item_id
with MAX(updated_at) picks one card per item (SQLite takes the bare columns
from the row that produced the max).
- Suggestions and Explore passed their SQL arguments in the wrong order: the IN
list precedes the user id in those queries, so a user id was being bound as a
library id. Covered by a scoping test that would have caught it.
- The sidebar lost its media types on a cold, logged-out load. bootstrap()
fetched media types inside a Promise.all with /auth/me, so the expected 401
rejected the whole thing and nothing refetched after login. Media types are
public and now load independently.
The previous commit's vite.config.ts used process.env without Node types, so
svelte-check failed. Adds @types/node and includes "node" in tsconfig types.
svelte-check is back to 0 errors, 0 warnings.
Running `pnpm dev` alone gave ECONNREFUSED on every request, because nothing
was listening on :7788. Two separate causes:
- the backend simply was not running, and
- Vite bound [::1]:5173 while the proxy target was "localhost", which Node
resolves to ::1 first. The Go server binds IPv4, so even with the backend up
the proxy could fail before falling back.
- vite.config.ts: proxy target is now 127.0.0.1 explicitly and overridable via
VELLUM_API; server.host is true so both stacks are served.
- scripts/dev.sh + `make dev`: builds the backend, waits for /healthz, starts
Vite, and stops the backend on exit. Ctrl-C tears down both.
- README documents that running Vite alone needs the backend already up.
- README status: PDF, music metadata, comic metadata, and games are done.
Six media types work; video remains deferred by design. The stack now covers
Stump, Kavita, Audiobookshelf, Navidrome, and RomM — only Jellyfin is left.
- IGDB environment variables documented.
- Item detail labels the primary action "Play" for games, not "Read".
The RomM replacement.
- registry: a games media type with ~35 ROM extensions across NES, SNES, GB/GBA,
N64, NDS, Genesis/Master System/Game Gear, PC Engine, Neo Geo Pocket,
WonderSwan, Atari, Coleco, Intellivision, and PlayStation.
- games: platform detection from the file extension, mapping each to an
EmulatorJS core. Platforms with no browser core are recognised but marked
not-playable so the UI offers a download instead of a broken player.
- migration 0005: game_saves keyed by (user, item, slot). Save states are user
data, not media — two people playing the same ROM keep their own progress.
- save endpoints with a 16 MiB cap and a validated slot name; the upload is
read through a LimitReader so an unbounded body is refused rather than
buffered.
- igdb provider: Twitch client-credentials flow with the token cached for its
~2 month lifetime, Apicalypse query body, and cover URLs normalised from
protocol-relative t_thumb to https t_cover_big.
- searchTitle: strips "(USA)", "[!]", "(Rev 1)" and similar release tags before
searching. "Sonic the Hedgehog (USA)" matched nothing; "Sonic the Hedgehog"
matches immediately. Stored titles keep the original.
- web: GamePlayer embeds EmulatorJS and adds Load/Save-to-server buttons.
Verified live against IGDB: Sonic matched (id 316900) with real cover art; a
4 KB save uploaded, listed, downloaded byte-identical, and deleted.
- PdfReader renders PDFs to canvas with page navigation and page-number
progress, reusing the same integer progress model as comics.
- Reader routes by file container, not media kind, so a PDF in a comics
library and a PDF ebook both open in the PDF reader.
- pdf.js is dynamically imported: the main bundle stays 443 kB and the 474 kB
pdf chunk plus 1.26 MB worker load only when a PDF is actually opened.
- comics cover extractor now only handles zip archives. A PDF in a comics
library is a valid item but not a zip, so it returns no cover instead of
logging an error on every request.
- fixed the page scale to leave slack for the vertical scrollbar, which was
otherwise forcing a horizontal scrollbar on tall pages.
Verified live: a 3-page PDF renders, navigates, and reports 33% progress.
The app looked like an admin panel. This is the product people actually see
when they open their library.
- Home: a landing screen with a Continue shelf (progress bars, straight from
the progress table) and per-type shelves of recent additions. One request
feeds it, so it does not pop in piece by piece.
- Browse: cover grid per media type with type chips, plus browse-all. Powered
by a new GET /items that lists across every visible library, filtered by
kind, through the same access chokepoint.
- Item page: cover, kind, title, authors, progress, a primary action that says
Continue when you have started, description, and the file list for
multi-file items. Cards now open the item page rather than jumping straight
into a reader.
- Search: results grouped by media type, cover-forward.
- Navigation moved from "libraries" to "media types" — you browse Ebooks, not
"the Ebooks folder". Libraries became an admin concern.
- Design system: dark by default, cover-forward, one accent, tighter type
scale, horizontal shelves, skeleton loaders.
- media: GET /home, GET /items, and authors on item detail.
Verified by screenshot in a live instance: home shelves, browse grid, and item
page all render correctly.
Multi-user was the central design decision and grants were API-only, which
made the whole thing unusable from the browser.
- Users screen lists each account with an expandable library panel.
- Read and Download checkboxes per library, loaded lazily per user.
- Clearing both flags deletes the grant, so "no grant" and "granted nothing"
stay the same state rather than two representations of the same thing.
- Admins show a note instead of checkboxes: they read every library by design.
Verified end to end: granted library visible and its items readable, ungranted
library 404s on both item access and search, revoke takes effect immediately.
- photos: generates a downscaled JPEG thumbnail per image, because serving a
folder of 12-megapixel originals to a grid is unusable on a TV box. Uses
CatmullRom scaling via golang.org/x/image; decodes jpeg/png/gif/webp.
- an undecodable format returns no thumbnail rather than an error, so the grid
falls back to a placeholder.
- images already smaller than the 512px ceiling are passed through untouched.
- library items endpoint now returns library_id, which the viewer needs to
find its siblings for navigation.
- web: PhotoViewer with keyboard and button navigation within the library.
Verified: 900x1200 PNG thumbnailed to a 512-long-edge JPEG and served;
unit tests assert exact dimensions, aspect preservation, and that non-images
produce no thumbnail without erroring.
A book is a folder of chapters, not a file. The scanner gained a grouping
mode so a directory of tracks becomes one item with ordered files.
- registry: MediaType.Group (file | directory). Audiobooks and music group by
directory; everything else stays one item per file.
- scanner: builds groups, upserts one item per group, marks items missing when
their directory disappears, and keeps the file-level added/updated/missing
accounting. Tracks are ordered naturally, so chapter 2 precedes chapter 10.
- natsort: one shared natural-order comparator, now used by both the scanner
and the comics module (which had its own copy).
- media: GET /items/{id}/files/{fileID} streams one specific track. It
verifies the file belongs to the item, so an item id cannot be paired with
another item's file id.
No new module was needed for playback: the polymorphic progress table already
keys on file_id, so per-chapter resume fell out of the existing design. The
web player resumes the exact track and offset.
Verified: 3 chapters grouped into one book titled "Mistborn", natural order,
range request returned 206, mismatched file id 404s, per-track progress
round-trips.
- jobs: a table-backed queue in the same SQLite file. No Redis, no second
process, included in the same backup. claim() is a single UPDATE...RETURNING
so a job cannot run twice even with several workers. Failures back off
exponentially; a missing handler fails permanently rather than retrying a
bug.
- metadata: Provider interface plus Open Library and Google Books (both
keyless). The enricher tries providers in registration order, falls back on
empty, and continues past a provider error.
- migration 0004: metadata_fetch records the attempt, not just the match, so a
rescan does not re-hammer a rate-limited API for an item that will never
match. Errors are always retried; ok/notfound are cached for 30 days.
- enrichment writes provider_ids, updates title/year, links authors through
people/item_people, and downloads the cover as an asset. The cover download
runs outside the transaction: a slow image host must not hold a write lock.
- endpoints: queue enrichment per library, and inspect an item's matches.
- web: Enrich button per library.
Verified live against Open Library: "The Hobbit" matched /works/OL27482W,
title and year 1937 written, a 301x500 JPEG cover downloaded and served.
- migration 0003: an FTS5 index over media_items as an external-content table,
so the index stores no copy of the text. Triggers keep it in sync for every
write path, including the scanner's bulk inserts.
- migrate: splitStatements now tracks BEGIN...END depth, so CREATE TRIGGER
bodies survive as one statement. Without this, the trigger's internal
semicolons would tear it apart.
- search: every whitespace term is quoted before it reaches FTS5. Unquoted
input like a bare quote, a hyphen, or the word OR is valid FTS5 syntax and
would either error or silently change the query's meaning. Tested against a
list of hostile inputs, including a DROP TABLE attempt.
- scoped through the same VisibleLibraryIDs chokepoint; an empty library set
returns nothing, never everything.
- web: search box in the topbar and a results view.
Verified live: finds items across libraries, hostile input returns 200 with no
results, index stays in sync on insert/update/delete.
- comics: reads pages straight out of the archive on demand. No extraction
pass, so a 200-page CBZ is not materialised for a reader who views three
pages. Pages are read into memory and served via http.ServeContent, which
gives Range for free.
- natural page ordering: page2 sorts before page10. Lexical ordering shuffles
a numbered archive, which is the difference between a readable book and a
scrambled one.
- skips __MACOSX and dotfiles; rejects archives with no images.
- cover is the first page.
- media.Item gained ModTime (from the backing file) so page responses carry a
Last-Modified and support conditional GETs.
- web: ComicReader with a bounded prefetch window (two pages each way), page
jump, keyboard nav, and progress stored as a page number.
Verified: 3-page CBZ served in natural order, out-of-range 404, cover from
page 1, progress round-trip. svelte-check 0/0.
The frontend the app needs to be usable at all.
- web/: Svelte 5 + Vite + TypeScript SPA. Login, app shell with per-type nav,
library list/create/scan/delete, item grid with covers, admin user
management, and an epub.js reader that syncs progress.
- Reader resumes by spine index — an integer — which is why the polymorphic
progress table needs no text column.
- Session state uses classic stores in a plain .ts module rather than runes in
a .svelte.ts module, avoiding special module resolution.
- Embedding: web/embed.go embeds web/dist. A committed .gitkeep keeps the
directive valid before the frontend is built, so `go build ./...` never
fails. Unknown non-API paths serve index.html for client routes; /api/* and
/healthz always return JSON and never fall back to HTML.
- Dockerfile builds the UI in a node stage and overlays dist into the Go stage.
- pnpm 12 needs allowBuilds in pnpm-workspace.yaml; esbuild approved, the two
unused transitive scripts explicitly denied so install exits 0.
svelte-check: 0 errors, 0 warnings. Verified served: SPA shell at /, route
fallback, hashed asset, and JSON 404 on /api/*.
