Reading the app before moving anything turned up that four of the five
job kinds already have a home showing their work: Settings → Search
Index draws per-tier index progress, `downloads-view` draws every
download's lifecycle state, `autotag-view` draws its own apply ring,
and only `library-scan` had nowhere but the Jobs tab. What none of the
four had is the *generic* affordances — pause, cancel, Details, the
log, and a finished job you can dismiss.
So this is a panel embedded beside each of them rather than one
"Background jobs" section in Settings, which would have been the tab
again under another name.
Three rules in it. The controls are `applyJobControl`, not a
reimplementation, which is what keeps the index build's "you will
discard hours of downloading" confirmation alive across the move. A
panel with nothing to say is `hidden` rather than empty, host margin
included, because an idle panel in four places is four pieces of
furniture describing an absence. And there is no "Clear finished":
`ClearFinishedJobs` is global, so a Clear under Libraries would discard
the index build's history too.
`JobKind` also gains `download`, which the backend has had all along.
frontend/wailsjs/ is deleted and frontend/bindings/ takes its place —
a real TypeScript module tree nested by Go import path, generated by
wails3's static analyser rather than by building the app and running
it. The @go alias absorbs the constant prefix, so a call site imports
'@go/library/library.js' and the codemod over all 93 sites was a
specifier rewrite plus splitting @go/models' namespaces into one
import per package.
The 12 SetContext bindings and the fake `context` model are gone, as
Phase 2's ServiceStartup port promised: 272 methods across 12
services, none of them plumbing.
@runtime/runtime is now a local shim (src/wails/runtime.ts) over
@wailsio/runtime, so the 22 EventsOn imports are untouched. It
unwraps v3's WailsEvent into v2's callback shape, which is exact here:
nothing in backend/events passes more than one data argument, and v3
only packs arguments into a slice when there is more than one.
v3 tells the truth about two things v2 lied about, and that is most of
the diff. A Go nil slice really does arrive as JSON null, and a Go
named string type really is an enum; v2 typed them as T[] and string.
utils/binding.ts states the app's actual contract — an absent list is
an empty list — once, at the boundary where it is true, and also drops
the CancellablePromise the app never cancels. Four test fixtures
widen an enum field back to its value union.
Not done, and Phase 5's to fix: frontend/test/support/wails-fake.ts
still fakes window.go, which v3 does not have, so `make ui-test` is
broken and harness.test.ts fails to compile on EventsEmit. That test
also asserts v2 ordering that no longer holds — v3's Events.Emit calls
the backend and does not notify in-page listeners at all.

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.

An event carries what a consumer needs so it never has to invalidate.
- `library-store` answers `TrackPlayCountChanged` by patching one
track, replacing the tracks array (consumers key memoized caches on
its identity) while sharing every unchanged Track — instead of
discarding four collections and refetching 25 MB per song.
- `playlist-store` answers `PlaylistTracksChanged` by refetching the
one playlist the event names, plus the summaries, since `UpdatedAt`
is a sort key. 2 668 kB and 172 ms for one heart, against 2.0 kB. It
falls back to a full invalidate only where a patch cannot be shown
to be equivalent: no id, a cold cache, an unknown id, or a fetch
already in flight. And a store with no subscriber fetches nothing —
the singleton's constructor used to put every track of every
playlist on the path to first paint for a view the user might never
open.
- `library-store` guards every fetch with a cache generation and holds
the request itself instead of deriving a promise from subscriber
notifications, which fixes the library-filter race and the
never-settling waiter together: they are the same bug seen from
either end.
- `explore-cache`'s two art caches are bounded, sharing one exported
cap constant — the artist photo's data URL is held by both, so
capping either alone frees nothing at all and reads as a fix that
did not work.
- `search-store` deliberately does *not* coalesce its notify: deferring
makes a subscriber that unsubscribes synchronously after a `setTerm`
miss the notification entirely, which is a semantic change rather
than an optimisation, and this is the store on the keystroke path.
- `selection-controller` retains its keys across a refetch rather than
clearing them, since they are file paths and those survive one, and
`getSelectedKeysOrdered()` gains an early exit. It stays a walk of
the list: an index goes stale on any re-sort, re-filter or refetch
while a file path survives all three, and 3 ms does not buy a
silently mis-ordered queue insert.
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.
