CLAUDE.md has claimed since the file was written that commitlint gates
the commit format in CI and that semantic-release runs off it. There was
no commitlint config, no workflow running one, and nothing invoking
.releaserc.yml — so the first thing every contributor and every agent
reads about this repo was false in two places.
scripts/commit-check.sh is the smaller honest answer: the grammar is one
regex, and commitlint would mean a Node dependency tree at the root of a
Go repo to run it. It is a commit-msg hook locally and a CI step over
every commit in a push, and its type list is .releaserc.yml's so the
check and the release rules cannot drift.
The semantic-release half is recorded as configured-but-not-wired rather
than implied to run.
Two reproductions in this pass were read before Lit had rendered, so
both reported the same answer on the broken build and the fixed one -
the third costume of this plan's most-repeated trap, and the first time
it has appeared in a reproduction rather than a measurement. Also
records that the audit's symptom for H-11 outlives its mechanism, that
fixing H-7's arithmetic does not remove every clipped Duration, and
that two e2e specs spend backend state they never give back.
`.planning/audits/2026-08-11-ui/` is the pass this work came from: the
app driven by hand headless plus three static reviews, ~118 findings
that are really five problems, each spread by being copied rather than
fixed. `.planning/plans/active/007-ui-reconciliation.md` sequences them
by blast radius and records what each of the six passes actually
shipped — including twenty-five entries under "where the plan was
wrong", which is the point of writing it down.
The discipline those entries add up to, now in NOTES.md: a finding is
three hypotheses — how big it is, why it is that big, and what to do
about it — and they can be independently right and wrong. Three of the
audit's recommended fixes would have shipped a bug (`m1` stops the
card grids repainting, `m6`'s index-ordered selection goes stale on
any re-sort, `m5`'s guard leaves the marquee short), all three because
they reasoned from the shape of the code and not from what the rest of
the file already knew about it. Five findings evaporated or inverted
on contact.
CLAUDE.md gains the invariants that came out of it, and the skill
gains the fourteen measurement traps, each of which produced a wrong
number first — the newest being that a longtask entry arrives after
the task that produced it, so two numbers that must agree are worth
more than one you have to be sceptical about.
CLAUDE.md gains backend/home and the two cross-cutting frontend pieces
a list or detail view now has to know about: explore-link's
always-navigate rule with its double-click grace, and
<catalog-scope-notice> with the catalogPending/catalogLoaded
distinction behind it.
A coding agent could develop this repo's Go packages and could not
develop the application: every path to running YellowJacket ended in a
blocking GTK window, so 265 bound methods, 46 events, 33 component
directories and 13 stores had exactly one form of verification
available — `tsc --noEmit`.
The unlock is that `wails dev`'s dev server on :34115 serves the real
frontend with the real generated bindings against the same Go backend a
desktop window attaches to, so a plain Chromium under Xvfb gets a fully
functional app. Four test tiers now exist, cheapest first:
- `make ui-test` — 313 Vitest tests in a real browser in ~2 s, no app,
no backend, no display. Works because `frontend/wailsjs/` is a pure
passthrough to `window.go`/`window.runtime`, so faking just those two
globals runs the real bindings and the real store code.
- `make test` — services in-process, asserting on the payload the
frontend would receive, via a new `events.Emit` wrapper.
- `make dev-headless` + `playwright-cli` — the real app, driven
interactively, with an event bridge on `window.__yjEvents` and a
dev-only control surface at `/__test/`.
- `make e2e` — 19 of those flows frozen as Playwright specs.
`events.Emit(ctx, …)` replaces all 35 direct `runtime.EventsEmit` call
sites: wails' `getEvents` `log.Fatalf`s on any context without its
runtime, so those paths could not run under test and a background
worker could take the app down. Four packages had each hand-rolled the
same guard; nine more guarded on `ctx != nil`, which does not help.
`TestNoDirectRuntimeEmits` fails the build on a new one.
Fixtures are generated, not committed (`make testdata`), and seeds are
built by *running the app* — never by hand-writing config and DB rows,
which would be a second description of a valid YJ_HOME.
`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` is the first workflow here that tests
anything; the other three only package, so `gitea_ci` reported only
packaging jobs and misled anyone asking whether a push was healthy.
Both jobs were prototyped to green in a bare ubuntu:24.04 container
before the YAML was written, which immediately caught `make lint`
linting three configurations that nothing builds: all three passes
omitted `webkit2_41`, so wails resolved webkit2gtk-4.0 — which Arch
still ships and Ubuntu 24.04 dropped.
Operational instructions live in `.pi/skills/yellowjacket-dev/`,
measured discoveries in `.planning/NOTES.md`, and architecture in
`CLAUDE.md` — split by tense, not by topic, because a topical split
gives every new fact two plausible homes. `make skill-check` fails a
commit if the skill cites a make target that does not exist.
Autotag: detect "junk drawer" folders with no artist/album consensus
and split them into synthetic per-cluster groups instead of forcing
one match on an unrelated pile of tracks; repair tagging_items rows
left behind by a prior scan orphan-cleanup gap.
Explore: fix an exact artist-name search being drowned out by its own
catalog entries in intent-prior scoring, and prune stale in_library
bookkeeping left behind when a referenced library row is deleted.
Download: fix a multi-library regression where every import failed
with "no library root configured" — the importer resolved the
library root from a legacy single-library config field that nothing
populates in the current multi-library model. It now resolves the
destination library per-request from the request's own library_id.
Also widen the Soulseek search window (12s -> 20s), measured against
real request history to be missing available peers on live queries.

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.

Remove the protect-main pre-push guard so main can be pushed directly,
and update the CLAUDE.md git-workflow note to match.

Guidance for Claude Code sessions: the -tags webkit2_41 test
requirement, the sqlc/templ codegen workflow, the golangci-lint v2
rules, the conventional-commits requirement, and a sketch of the
Wails app lifecycle + backend package responsibilities.
