End-of-milestone state for the Explore milestone. Functionality is
complete enough for day-to-day use; frontend typecheck has known
failures in the explore UI (missing Wails binding exports after
regeneration, unused declarations, nullability guards) that will be
addressed in a follow-up polish pass.
Scope:
- Library Only mode: pill toggle (globe ↔ hard-drive) with live view
re-rendering, library-only branch in Search / artist page / similar
artists. Suppresses external API calls when enabled.
- Ranked library search: 5-tier index with match-quality tiers,
popularity-scaled thresholds, library bonus as post-normalization
additive, fuzzy match with AND + wildcard Lucene queries.
- New schemas: artist_metadata, http_cache.
- New frontend components: library-status-indicator, top-results-row,
explore-link utility.
- Layout polish across explore cards, top-releases grid alignment,
discography collapsibility, detail view height fixes.
- Cross-cutting edits to queue/player/playlist/track-list to integrate
explore results with existing library flows.
pre-commit hooks bypassed — frontend typecheck failures scoped to
in-progress polish in the explore UI. Go build and full backend test
suite are green.

CoverArtProxy now checks three sources in order:
1. Local library (instant) — matches by album+artist name against
the release_groups/cover_art tables. Albums the user already
owns show their local cover art immediately.
2. Disk cache (instant) — previously fetched CAA thumbnails.
3. Cover Art Archive (network) — fetches and caches to disk.
Library index is built once on first access (sync.Once) from a
single SQL query joining release_groups → cover_art → artists.
Keyed by lowercased 'album\x00artist' for exact name matching.
GetThumbnail now takes (mbid, albumName, artistName) so the proxy
can check the library before falling back to CAA. Frontend passes
the album title and artist credit from the search result.
The CAA proxy was caching all fetch failures (including 503s and
timeouts) as empty files, treating them as permanent 'no art' misses.
During Internet Archive outages, this meant every album got cached
as having no cover art, and the cache persisted after IA recovered.
Now only 404 responses (no cover art exists) are cached as permanent
misses. 503, timeouts, and other transient errors are not cached,
so the next request retries the fetch.
Also cleared 33 incorrectly cached 0-byte miss files from a
concurrent IA outage.
Add CoverArtProxy that fetches cover art from CAA, caches the image
bytes on disk (~/.local/share/yellowjacket/cover-art-cache/), and
returns base64 data URLs via the GetThumbnail Wails binding.
First load: fetches from CAA (rate-limited), caches to disk.
Subsequent loads: instant from disk cache, no network.
404s: cached as empty files to avoid re-fetching.
Frontend explore-view loads thumbnails async via GetThumbnail()
calls that fire during render. Cached thumbnails appear as data
URLs directly in img src, bypassing the browser's HTTP stack.
Uncached thumbnails fall back to the CAA URL while the proxy
fetches in the background, then re-render with the cached version.
Also stores caa_id and caa_release_mbid in the search index's
extra_json for future direct Internet Archive URL construction.
