Plan 016 B2, phase 1. Below 600px the grid drops its sidebar column,
`bottom-nav` becomes the primary navigation, and the shell fits the
viewport instead of scrolling sideways out of it.
600 rather than the sidebar's own 900, because 900 is a laptop and the
answer there is a narrower sidebar, which is still a sidebar. Under 600
there is no room for one at all: 360px of viewport over a 200px nav is
not a layout.
**The tab bar is four destinations and a way to everything else.**
Three to five is where touch targets stop being thumb-sized -- eleven
over 360px is 32px each -- so the four are the ones plan 016's subset
says a phone is for, and "More" opens the *existing* `app-sidebar` in a
drawer rather than listing the destinations a second time. Two lists is
two places to add the next view to.
That reuse has a cost this found the hard way: a shared component
brings its `data-testid`s with it, so rendering the drawer's sidebar
unconditionally put a second `nav-home` (and ten siblings) in the DOM
and **failed 30 existing specs** with "resolved to 2 elements" -- on a
desktop viewport, where this element is `display: none` and the drawer
can never open. It renders only while the drawer is open, and the
component test asserts the absence, because the failure is invisible
from inside the component and lands in files nobody touched.
**What made the shell overflow was minimums, not padding.** Measured at
360px: the body was 652px wide, because a `min-width` in a flex row is
a hard floor and a grid item's implicit minimum is its content. So
`min-width: 0` on the boxes between the viewport and the content, and
each component stands its own non-essential parts down in its *own*
stylesheet -- search-bar's 200px floor, job-indicator's label (the
visible one; the live region that announces it is untouched),
audio-player's seek bar and volume. A media query inside a shadow root
is answered by the viewport, so this is the component saying what it
drops rather than the shell reaching in.
Volume goes because the hardware keys own it on a phone, which is the
same reason mediacontrols' Android handler implements no volume
callback. Seeking goes because 4px is not a thumb target; it belongs to
the full-screen now-playing view, which is the next phase.
An existing spec therefore asserts the opposite of what it did:
layout-overflow's 320px case used to require that the 464px behind
`overflow: hidden` could be *scrolled to*, which was the remedy
available while the shell had one layout. It reflows now -- 320px in a
320px viewport, exactly -- and reflow is what WCAG 1.4.10 asked for.
Section A of plan 016 is closed and B1 is decided, so the three tenses
move together: CLAUDE.md for what mediacontrols now is, the skill for
what to run, NOTES.md for what was measured and when.
The entry worth reading is the one that disproves a claim written here
earlier in the same session. Dropping x86_64 was expected to make
make android-install fail with INSTALL_FAILED_NO_MATCHING_ABIS.
Measured, it installs and launches: Google's google_apis x86_64 images
carry arm64 translation (abilist = x86_64,arm64-v8a), so the loader
maps lib/arm64/libwails.so and runs it. It dies before any of our code
with SIGILL, and the disassembly names the reason exactly --
`mrs x0, ID_AA64ISAR0_EL1`, Go's internal/cpu reading the arm64 feature
register at runtime init, which the translator does not implement. So
no Go binary starts under it, and that is not a property of this app.
Which closes the last plausible shortcut. There are now three distinct
ways this app fails on an x86_64 Android -- seccomp on the x86_64
build, an unimplemented system register on the translated arm64 one,
and a real device still unverified -- and none of them is a bug in it.
A phone remains the only verification path.
Plan 016 also carries the B2 scope, now decided rather than
recommended: option 1's data model with option 2's surface. The phone
gets home, library browse, now-playing-as-a-view, the queue, search and
playlists; it does not get autotag, downloads, Explore or the 93-control
Settings page, and each of those has a reason written beside it. One
rule for the work: no view forks, because a phone template that copies
a view's is two templates to fix every bug in.
Plan 015 shipped a pipeline; this is what stands between that and an
app worth installing. Verified against the source and the generated
manifest rather than guessed.
Four blockers, and none of them is porting work. The manifest requests
no storage or media permission at all, so the app can read no music --
and READ_MEDIA_AUDIO would not be enough, because it grants access
through MediaStore while this app's whole model is absolute paths:
audio_files.file_path is the primary key of ownership and every
GetFilePathsBy... query exists to hand paths to the player. The
first-run wizard calls DirectoryPicker, which Wails documents as
returning an error on Android, and the wizard intercepts pointer events
until a library exists, so the app is inert rather than merely empty.
mpris_linux.go is compiled in, because android implies linux. And the
scaffold's foreground service is typed dataSync rather than
mediaPlayback, with no MediaSession and no audio focus, so playback
dies at screen lock and there are no lock-screen controls.
They are all the same question: is the Android app a librarian or a
player? The desktop app is a librarian -- it scans folders, dedupes
covers, rewrites tags on disk -- and that model rests on owning a
filesystem, which is exactly what Android declines to give. So the plan
argues that parity is the wrong target and lays out three coherent
products instead, recommending a MediaStore-backed player.
Four things are worth doing whatever is decided, and the highest
information-per-minute one needs no code: run the published APK on a
real phone. Nothing in sections A or B has been observed on Android,
because the x86_64 emulator cannot run the app and emulator 37 refuses
arm64 images on an x86_64 host.
The plan assumed build/ was free and that GTK4 was a preference. It
was not free — this repo used it as ignored build output — and GTK4 is
not available on the dev machine, which breaks `go tool wails3`
outright rather than merely changing which webkit is linked.

Three things on the Explore surfaces, all about not asking twice.
A portrait already on disk costs no network call. explore-view seeded
only from the library store — owned artists, which on a catalog search
is nearly none of the results — and sent everything else to
GetArtistImageURL, the resolving entry point, one await at a time.
GetArtistImagesCachedPaths asks the disk about every unresolved artist
in one call, and only what it does not answer reaches the resolver,
in parallel.
The artist page's two sections both wanted PrefetchReleases and each
called it, so the most expensive call the app makes was issued twice
for an overlapping set on a 1 req/s limiter. They are collected and
sent once on a microtask, and prefetchRequested stops the cold-artist
refetch re-asking for what it already asked for.
The release cards — most of the artist page — had no context menu at
all. They have one now on both release shapes, normalised to a
ReleaseMenuTarget when the menu opens so the union does not reach the
action handlers. It is a discriminated union rather than one nullable
field per kind because the panel is shared with the track menu: that is
what keeps aria-label moving with the target, which is the fault
cover-grid shipped. Which items appear is three different questions —
playback is gated on a local album id, not on "owned", and the request
needs a catalog MBID, so it is absent for a library-only release.
Note on the docs: the CLAUDE.md and NOTES.md prose here was
reconstructed after a mishandled `git stash --keep-index` destroyed the
uncommitted originals. One NOTES.md section is marked as incomplete
where its text could not be recovered.

The album page asked MusicBrainz how many tracks an album has, because
the only total it had was the length of the tracklist it was already
showing — a tautology for a library copy. The denominator was on disk
all along: metadata has read the "5/12" totals off every file since
forever and discarded them. They persist to
release_group_recordings.total_tracks now, and a complete, MBID-matched
album makes no catalog call at all.
Around that:
- AlbumReleasesFailed, so a slow browse is no longer reported as a
failed one. The page inferred failure from a 12s deadline, against a
browse queued behind up to eight prefetches on a 1 req/s limiter.
- Tracks not in the library are dimmed in place rather than the owned
ones carrying a green tick, which is also what let the "loading
catalog" banner go.
- A partly-owned album draws the release, not the part, so the missing
tracks are visible and Play can say "9 of 12" truthfully.
- The version dropdown appears only when tracklists actually differ,
and the version you own is marked by name instead of being replaced
by a synthetic "Your Library" entry.
- A merged cluster shows the running order the most releases agree on,
not whichever pressing the browse returned first — which is what made
a correctly matched album claim it was unlinked from MusicBrainz.
Also carries in-progress work from earlier sessions that shared these
files: the queue source link, autotag mixed-bag grouping, the mix
feature and its schema, and the config general page.
Committed with --no-verify: every pre-commit check was run by hand and
passed, but bindings-check refuses to run while frontend/wailsjs is
dirty and counts *staged* as dirty, so it cannot pass on any commit
that updates the bindings. Verified separately by regenerating and
diffing against the staged content.

Ships the fresh-start schema cleanup: rebuilt explore catalog index
pipeline (dump import, artifact fetch/build, incremental listen-count
refresh), a new download subsystem (Lidarr/Prowlarr/qBittorrent/SABnzbd/
slskd/yt-dlp providers, staging, reconciliation, wanted list), and the
supporting schema/query/store changes across backend and frontend.
Also includes two smaller follow-ups: bump the central index's
rebuild-after cadence from 90 to 180 days, and remove the Explore
"library only" online/offline toggle entirely (frontend-only, no
backend counterpart) rather than carry unused UI/state.

Add a central job registry that library scans and search index builds
report into, so background work is visible instead of buried in the
settings page.
- backend/jobs: registry with per-job ring-buffer logs, capability-driven
controls, and one coalesced JobsChanged snapshot at 4Hz
- pause survives restart via a job_state table; a paused scan is adopted
back on launch and skipped by the soft scan
- top-bar indicator, popover, details drawer and a Jobs page replacing
the config page's scan UI; per-library start/stop retained
- scan timing breakdown moves into the job log, Full rescan to the Jobs
page; delete the orphaned library-manager component
Also add cmd/indexbuild and cmd/indexexport so the explore index can be
built once centrally rather than by every install, which today streams
~205GB from the ListenBrainz spark dump on first run. indexbuild picks
build/refresh/rebuild from index state; the Gitea workflow runs it on
push, weekly, or manually and publishes only when content changed.
fresh-install no longer defaults YJ_HOME under /tmp: it is tmpfs on most
distros, and the import needs ~6GB of real disk.

Consolidates in-progress work across autotag, explore, and library:
- autotag: beets/Picard-informed scoring engine — ID-first matching, VA
handling, recommendation tiers, and a merged distance/rank cascade, with
an eval harness for regression tracking.
- explore: offline MusicBrainz dump import/incremental refresh replaces the
legacy tier crawl; index-first local search with fuzzy matching and a
dedicated ranker; disk-free guards for dump downloads.
- library: artist-credit extraction and matching.
- lyrics: owned-library lyric search (FTS) with LRCLIB backfill.
Also: rewrite README to be user-focused, and migrate upstream to
git.ljones.me/yonlu/yellowjacket.
