Muting does not change the volume level, and VolumeChanged carried
nothing but that level — so pressing M silenced playback and left the
indicator showing the volume it still had. The UI had nothing to react
to.
Mute rides on its own event rather than widening the volume payload,
since the two are genuinely independent: a muted player at 40% is a
different state from a player at 0%, and only one of them comes back
when you unmute. The icon crosses out and dims, and the popup gains an
explicit Mute/Unmute so the keyboard shortcut is not the only way in.
MuteToggle also now takes the speaker lock (it was mutating the effects
chain from outside it) and refuses politely rather than dereferencing a
nil streamer when nothing has been loaded yet.
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.
The durable "I asked for this" record was called Want, and the one-shot
search-and-grab attempt was called Request — names that didn't match
what either actually did. Want is now Request, and the old Request/Item
is now Download/DownloadItem, with a table-rename migration
(download_wants -> download_requests, old download_requests ->
download_downloads) safe against both fresh installs and existing data.
Every anchored manual download now upserts/reuses a durable Request
before running, so a "download now" that finds nothing is picked up by
the background reconciler automatically instead of just failing with
no trace — the gap that caused this session's repeated "no candidates
found" failures on the same album.
Also adds auto-download guardrails (file-size min/max with a preferred
target, allowed file types) that gate what the pipeline may grab
unattended, live-editable from a new settings section. The frontend's
wanted-view becomes downloads-view, with a new Downloads tab showing
attempt/transfer history that previously had no UI at all.

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.

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.

- Fix gofumpt and wsl issues in library.go
Add live progress reporting during library scans:
- Pre-walk count: fast WalkDir to count audio files upfront for
percentage calculation (~1-2s overhead)
- Progress ticker: emits ScanProgress events every 300ms with
phase, file counts (added/skipped/updated), and total
- Phase labels: counting → scanning → thumbnails → orphans
- Frontend: progress bar with percentage, file counts breakdown,
and phase indicator in both config-page and library-manager
Replaces the static 'Scanning...' text with a live progress bar
showing e.g. '62% — Scanning... 1,247 / 2,013 files (891 new,
356 skipped)'
- Add backend/events/cmd/genevents/main.go using go/ast for deterministic output
- Add //go:generate directive to backend/events/events.go
- Generate frontend/src/events.ts with all 21 constants including LibraryConfigChanged
- Atomic file writes via temp file + rename
- Comment groups preserved with trailing period stripping
album artist gets populated with artist as fallback (frontend also uses
this as display name fallback for albums). added scroll position
persistence when switching main views. also added frontend cache for
faster switching.
