home: a landing page built from the app's own parts
Approved on research/home-redesign after four passes: the Desk layout, the Showcase polish, the welcome card, a 6-month feed window, news with reviews filtered, and all three of the sections I proposed. Nothing here is a new design. The release cards, their grid, the date chip and its accent-glass recipe, the upcoming wording and the missing play button on an unreleased record are the artist page's. The section heads, the featured card, the artist cards and the list rows are ArtistExtras'. The entrance is CatalogDiscography's edition deal with the same four approved numbers, and the arrival rule with it — a null from consumeScroll means a fresh arrival, which is the only thing that deals; coming Back is a return to something already read. Only the rails, the aside panels and the news list are new vocabulary, and those came off the mock verbatim. The styles are copies rather than imports for the same reason the discography page carries copies of the album page's: a page that reaches into another page's stylesheet couples them forever. The feed is what "new" honestly means. Deezer's release list merged with the MusicBrainz identity supplement — A ? of WHEN is a Panda Bear record that exists only in the supplement, and Weezer's upcoming album only carries its real name (Gold Album) there — then deduped per artist by cover and by base title, which collapses Weezer's BBC triplet and Röyksopp's four same-day remix drops to one card each. Upcoming first, then newest, with the age riding the artwork so the reader never has to work out whether "new" means this week or last spring. Jump back in is deliberately NOT deduped against it: a record can be new and also what you were just listening to, and it belongs in both. Everything reads caches. Assembling this feed cold costs one catalog_artist call per followed artist — 48 seconds for nine, measured — so home_warm walks the follows in the background through the same entry points the pages use and emits per artist as it goes. The page fills in progressively instead of waiting for the last one, and a follow change re-walks it. Three sections were mine to propose and are now in: the back catalogue (albums older than the window, one per artist first so a deep discography cannot own the row), the library rail, and Complete the set — you own two of sixteen Weezer albums and a new one lands in seventeen days. |

news: headlines about the artists you follow, anchored to the artist
No per-artist music news API exists — every product that does this aggregates and filters, so this does too. Google News RSS is the source: free, keyless, no pagination, and no contract at all, which is why it gets the most conservative pacer in the file (4 requests per 10 seconds) and a 6-hour cache on disk as well as in memory. Nothing user-facing waits on it; the home page asks after it is already drawn. The query is the QUOTED artist name plus the word "music", and the quoting is the whole design. Measured 2026-08-04 against the real feed: a bare ambiguous name returned 0 of 10 relevant items — searching "Girls" gives Indigo Girls, The Deli Girls and a school production of Mean Girls — while the same name with a corroborating token returned 8 of 8, and an unambiguous one 10 of 10. That is the identity-anchor rule the rest of the app already lives by, applied to a provider that only speaks in names: never trust the name alone. The parser is deliberately not an XML library. One provider, four flat tags inside <item> blocks, exactly the judgment the Bing scrape made. What it does handle is what Google actually emits: entity-encoded titles including numeric forms, a " - Publication" suffix on every headline (stripped when the tail matches the <source> tag, so the title reads as a headline rather than a citation), and RFC 2822 pubDates converted to unix seconds by a hand-rolled civil-date conversion — nothing else in the workspace needs a date crate for one field. Freshness and relevance stay OUT of here. The 45-day window and the review filter are display policy and belong to the surface that shows them; this returns what the feed said, newest first, capped at a dozen. |

taskbar: transport buttons under the window preview
Hovering the taskbar button pops a preview, and an app may put buttons under it. Every media player uses them for the transport, and now so do we: previous, play/pause, next, with the middle one swapping its glyph as playback starts and stops. Clicks are emitted as `soulseek:media-button` — the same event the OS media card sends — so the frontend's existing dispatch handles them with no new code and the two surfaces cannot drift apart. Verified by posting the exact WM_COMMAND/THBN_CLICKED the shell posts: next advanced the queue, toggle paused, toggle resumed. Three Win32 facts shaped the implementation. The buttons can only be added ONCE per window and only after the shell has created the taskbar button, which it announces with a registered message — but Tauri shows the window before the setup hook runs, so that announcement is usually already gone by the time we could subclass, and the first build put no buttons up at all. They are added directly at init now, with the first playback as a retry for the case where the taskbar button genuinely does not exist yet. Clicks arrive as WM_COMMAND, so hearing them means subclassing Tauri's window — SetWindowSubclass chains rather than replacing the window procedure, so wry still receives everything it expects. And ITaskbarList3 is apartment-threaded, so it lives in a thread-local touched only on the UI thread, with updates from the player's event thread marshalled through run_on_main_thread. The glyphs are drawn at runtime rather than shipped: they are four flat shapes, and a .ico per glyph per theme would be files to keep in step with a transport that already draws itself in the app. Coverage is sampled on a 4x4 grid per pixel, which is what stops a 16px triangle looking like a staircase. They follow SystemUsesLightTheme — the thumbnail flyout rides the system theme, not the app's — and are rebuilt on WM_SETTINGCHANGE when that flips, so they do not end up dark-on-dark. |

media card: Windows knows SoulStream is a music player now
Registering with the System Media Transport Controls is what makes an app a media app to the OS rather than a window that happens to make noise. The card that the media-key overlay, the taskbar media flyout and the lock screen all draw now carries our cover, title, artist and album; the hardware media keys reach us with the window unfocused; and the transport buttons on that card drive this app. Verified against the OS's own session list: title/artist/album/albumArtist, type Music, a live scrubber, a present thumbnail, and play disabled while playing. Where each half of it comes from follows where the truth already lives. Status and position are pushed by the backend's player event pump, which already sees every transport change and every position tick — the card is driven by the same events the UI is, so it cannot drift from the window, and it costs no IPC at all. Metadata goes the other way, once per track, published by the player bar: the queue lives in the frontend and so does the derivation the bar displays, and publishing exactly what the bar shows means the two can never disagree. Deriving it a second time in Rust would guarantee that one day they do. Button presses are forwarded as `soulseek:media-button` rather than handled in Rust, because nextTrack knows about shuffle, repeat, the album fill and re-sourcing a track restored from the last session, and none of that is knowable from that side. They run the same functions the on-screen transport runs — the play/pause branch moved into togglePlayPause() so there is one implementation, not two that drift. Proven by driving the app from the OS session: next advanced the queue, pause and play moved the status, previous restarted the track on the >3s rule the app already had. Stop is deliberately disabled: this transport has no stop, only pause, and a dead button on the card is worse than a missing one. Buffering maps to Changing, which is what "finding best source…" honestly is. The thumbnail is the bar's own data URL decoded into an in-memory stream — no temp files — and it is explicitly cleared when a track has no cover, because the previous track's art outliving it is worse than none. The debug handle gains the local playback entry points beside the streaming ones it already had. That is not only convenience: verifying this end to end needs a track playing, and every run that reaches for Soulseek to get one costs a login the server starts ignoring after a burst. |

follow: the artist page's heart becomes a real thing, stored and celebrated
Following an artist now writes a row: followed_artists (artist_id, name, portrait, followed_at) beside the playlists in the library db, reached through follow_artist / unfollow_artist / followed_artists, each emitting soulseek:follows-changed. Re-following refreshes the name and portrait — identity improves as pages are visited and a later portrait is usually the better one — but keeps the original followed_at, so "following since" stays honest. Name and portrait are stored on purpose rather than looked up: the home page's "new releases by artists you follow" can then draw a card from the row alone, with no catalog request per artist. The store is the UI truth and the chip never keeps its own copy. It is optimistic — the chip flips at the click and reverts if the write fails, rather than leaving the screen telling a lie. The chip itself (FB4) leads the stat row and wears the accent as ground with dark text, the Play pill's own trick, so its on-state is legible across the room. The lead slot is a fixed 14x14 in which the +, the equalizer bars and the check swap places, so nothing about the chip's box moves except the word — and the word morphs between its measured widths instead of snapping. Clicking runs the Encore: the + collapses, three bars dance three beats with a note rising per beat, they bow, and the check springs in as "Following" grows into place. The db write and the toast fire at the CLICK; the ceremony is presentation only, so navigating away mid-show still follows. Unfollow is an undo — the shrink morphs, nothing celebrates, and the toast says so. Every effect is template-owned with scoped keyframes. The first build spawned the glow and the notes imperatively and referenced -global- keyframes, which silently did not resolve: the glow ran no animation and sat at full opacity, the notes held opacity 0 and never appeared. The bars worked throughout for exactly the reason the others did not. The row around it is shorter too, at Kyle's call: the library and listening chips (progress meter, the disk popover, format, hours, last played, top track, genre) come out, leaving the identity trio and the socials. With nothing left to shed, the socials' scroll-driven fade and their layout drop at the park boundary come out with them, and the divider's clear space moves from the follow heart by name to whichever chip now closes the run. The JS that fed the removed chips stays — it is cheap, local, and the numbers still have a home coming. |

playback: a cached track plays without asking Soulseek where it lives
Hopping between songs of an already-cached album still ran the full "finding best source…" resolve for audio sitting complete on disk — a second of popup between every click. The player now remembers the source each stream item was queued from (localStorage, LRU-capped at 400) and, before any search, asks the backend whether that exact file is byte-complete in the stream cache. If it is, the track plays those bytes immediately: no resolver, no popup, and no online requirement — cached audio is playable offline, so the check sits before requireOnline. The memory is a hint, never a promise. It is written eagerly when an item is queued to PLAY, because a source that never delivers leaves no complete cache file and the byte-complete probe rejects it later at no cost; eviction and half-finished transfers fall back to the normal resolver the same way. First play of a track records it, every play after that is instant. |

metadata: per-track listeners, and an artist profile the search hero can ask for
CatalogTrack gains artist_id — Deezer sends it on every search row and it was simply unparsed — and rank, its 0-1,000,000 popularity figure. Together they let a listener count be resolved for the PERFORMING artist of each row rather than for the query's top artist, so a "panda bear" search shows Daft Punk's "Doin' it Right (feat. Panda Bear)" at its real 464,046. Resolution rides the existing deezer_linked_mbid -> lastfm_listener_ranks chain behind a new catalog_track_listeners command, deliberately kept separate from catalog_search: that one is typed against per keystroke and must never wait on MusicBrainz's 1 req/s gate. catalog_artist_profile backs the hero's middle third — MusicBrainz tags off the cached artist document plus one Last.fm artist.getinfo.

previews: the glow goes, the eq steps, and every clip lands before you scroll to it
The track preview modal could hold a machine at 25% GPU. Three separate causes, each measured in isolation with a kill-style ladder and, once the GPU-engine counter proved to be clock-relative (a lighter workload read HIGHER), with clock-immune process CPU-seconds. Idle drain. The scrim's backdrop-filter is re-executed on every presented frame -- a backdrop filter is never cached -- so its cost is presents/sec times window area. Two infinite animations kept the modal presenting at the display's refresh rate forever: the eq capsule's bars animated `height` (a layout property, so style/layout/paint on the main thread every vsync) and the cover glow's halo-breathe kept a blur(48px) copy recompositing. Either one alone kept the pipeline hot, which is why killing one changed nothing. The glow is deleted outright at Kyle's request; the eq bars now scale with a stepped transform whose three delays are multiples of the step interval, so all three jump on the same instants and one present serves them all. Playing steady state: 7.2-10.5% of a core down to 1.4-2.2%. Paused: 0.2%. Scrolling. The animations turned out to be innocent here -- reverting them moved the number not at all. The cost was per-step work: re-decoding the full artwork for the background wash, a main-thread accent scan, a new cover mount, three times a second. The wash is now a 96x58 canvas with the blur/saturate/brightness baked in at draw time and cached per artwork, and an overlay preloader walks the manifest once at open -- nearest to the active card first, capped at 60 -- filling the decoded-image, wash and accent caches ahead of the user. A rapid-nav jump-cut was tried and rejected on sight; the animations stay full at every rate. Backend. preview_resolve swept the clip directory on every call, and any landing outside the +/-1 prefetch window paid a full Deezer mint, download, validate, write and loudness measure. The fetch-store-measure core is factored out and a new preview_prewarm walks the session's track ids at open, paced 250ms on top of the existing Deezer throttle and starting 1.5s in so the first clip owns the network, halted by a generation guard on dispose. A burst landing on a never-visited track is now audible in 154ms off local disk. The sweep is throttled to ten minutes, and dispose deletes prewarmed files instead of orphaning them until the hourly reap. The debug overlay's GPU row was summing the counters machine-wide, so it read roughly double the app's share with Discord and DWM folded in. It now reports `app X% - sys Y%`, the app figure restricted to our process tree, matching Task Manager's per-process rows. |

release ownership: one Deezer id can be seven artists
There is exactly one Deezer artist called "Wand" (1213178) and it holds the LA psych band, a Brazilian funk MC, an Indonesian act, an Indian one, a 2020 house project and whoever released Hard Knox in 2009 — 46 of its 72 rows are somebody else's. Ranking search results cannot help (there is one candidate) and neither can credit role (every row is primary-credited to it). The Apple namesake filter that should have caught this switched itself off: APPLE_EXACT_ARTIST_CANDIDATE_LIMIT is 8 and Apple has TEN artists named Wand, so the candidate fetch failed closed and every catalogue came back empty. It fails closed for a good reason at page-load time — it picks the winner by overlap with the requested artist's own Deezer releases, which on a fused record are partly the co-tenants'. Circular evidence has to fail closed. So the answer is not to raise that cap but to stop asking the fused list. artist_release_ownership runs in the DEFERRED identity pass, where the linked MBID has already named the artist, and picks the Apple performer that reproduces THAT catalogue. Non-circular, so 20 candidates is safe. Evidence is MB release groups of every type, the verified Apple catalogue, and the label sets of both (MB at one sighting, Apple at two — Apple files two rafftheraff singles under the LA band). Pruning only runs where a row is provably carried by a different same-named Apple artist, so the gate opens on 4 of the 55 artists measured and stays shut on Wednesday's twenty namesakes, Jungle's sixteen and Roosevelt's fourteen. The same evidence repairs the opposite failure. The guest guard keeps an appears_on row only if MB credits it to the artist's own MBID, which assumes MB mirrors collaborations. It does for Watch the Throne, whose artist CREDIT names both. It does not when the collaboration is its own entity: VULTURES 1, VULTURES 2 and KIDS SEE GHOSTS appear nowhere in Ye's 315 release groups, and all three were being erased from his page. Apple's artistName credit, read as a list of principals, restores them without restoring guest spots — Estelle's "American Boy (feat. Kanye West)" is still hers. A fused record's PORTRAIT is wrong for the same reason its releases are: it is whichever co-tenant uploaded last, a real photograph of the wrong person, so deezerPortraitMissing cannot see it. The verdict is persisted, because the search dropdown is typed against per keystroke and can never afford the lookups that produced it. Its store is deliberately not in net-cache-v1 — prune_disk_cache deletes every json there by mtime, and a verdict is not a cached response. Measured live: Wand 72 -> 26, Hot Toddy 36 -> 16, Crazy P 68 -> 51, Turnover 30 -> 25, Kanye 50 -> 64; Weezer, Pond, Billy Cobb, JPEGMAFIA and Daft Punk untouched. The page's "wand." wordmark went with the co-tenants and should have: it was traced from the Indonesian single's cover. |

feat: crossfade preview suite, loudness normalization, debug overlay
Preview modal audio, five rounds: - True track-change crossfade: scheduleSettle no longer silences the outgoing clip at t=0; preview_load's equal-power fade owns both ramps, gated on the incoming voice's first Playing event (audible_marks), with failure/overstay fallbacks. CROSSFADE_MS = 340 — locked to the reel's card-slide so audio and visuals land together. - Two-neighbour lease prefetch + a 15-min on-disk clip byte-cache (recent_clips): steps in BOTH directions crossfade in ~15 ms; revisits never re-download. - Adaptive settle (isolated steps fire immediately, bursts coalesce) and anticipatory auto-advance (step at clip end minus 400 ms) so auto-play crossfades over the tail instead of gapping. - Session resume memory: revisited tracks continue where they left off (decoder-level start offset via play_local_from/resume_at); finished tracks restart from the top. - Open/close crossfades with the MAIN player: fade-pause with the desired-paused latch landing at ramp end, fade-resume from the paused position; MAIN_FADE_GEN guards; focus handshake relaxation documented in focusBridge. Volume normalization (Settings > Playback, default on): - Dependency-free BS.1770/EBU R128 meter in the player crate (K-weighting, 400 ms gated blocks, incremental) + analyzer that reads the same growing file playback streams from — first plays are measured at download speed. - Gain layered under user volume; audible start GATED on a preliminary measurement (10 s of audio or 800 ms budget) so the level is right from the first sample and never changes mid-track; prelim boosts capped 3 dB, peak-aware clipping guard, persistent loudness-cache.json. - Gapless boundaries get their own sample-accurate gain via SetNextNormGainDb, fed by preload analysis. Debug overlay (Ctrl+Shift+D): process-tree CPU / PDH GPU / working-set + private-commit RAM / network rates / FPS / current-track download progress read from the backend's own StreamProgress / live normalization state / preview session phase. Polls only while visible. 131 JS + player + app tests green; every path verified live over CDP. |

Phase 2A+2B: native preview backend and renderer glue
Rust (2A):
- metadata: deezer_track_uncached (fresh mint, cache-updating, paced) and
fetch_preview_media — dedicated client whose custom redirect policy
re-validates every hop against the media allowlist; bounded body read
(cap enforced on received bytes, not Content-Length's promise); Date
header captured for provider-clock lease math. httpdate dep added.
- src-tauri/preview.rs: second Player instance + soulstream:preview event
channel; preview_resolve (fresh mint → host gate → MIME gate → ID3v2
shell strip → MPEG sync check → clip file + opaque lease id → safe_for_ms
mirroring lease.js); preview_load with start_paused via the
desired-paused latch; preview_control/dispose; player_pause_acked
exposing the Phase 0.4 ack on the MAIN player. 9 unit tests.
JS (2B):
- api.js: preview command surface (opaque lease ids only).
- nativeTransport.js: stamps {sessionId, generation, sessionKey} onto
backend events; cleared context makes stragglers dispatch nothing.
- productionResolver.js: DTO → MediaLease, failure classes preserved.
- focusBridge.js: production coordinator binding with the documented
renderer-side generation invariant (buffering counter + gateway).
- service.js: the orchestrator — settle window, resolve→load→play under
focus, single capped retry, one forward lease prefetch with safe-window
expiry, stale re-checks before every transport command, close/handoff.
The service constructs its transport around its own dispatch — the
factory signature exists because a pre-built transport silently loses
the event wiring (caught by test).
70 JS tests passing (npm test); metadata 46 + app preview 9 in cargo.

Baseline: full tree snapshot after git repository loss
The previous .git directory was found gutted (only info/ remained), so history is unrecoverable locally. This commit restores version control with the tree exactly as it stands: the working app, the preview-tracks launcher on the artist hero, the scrollable-track-previews design bundle (docs + approved mockups), and the Phase 0 validation artifacts. |
