feat(android): a name is not a link on a phone, the menu carries it

Every track, album and artist name in the app navigates through
`utils/explore-link.ts`, and every sentence of how it does that is a
desktop compromise: the navigation is held for one double-click
interval so double-clicking the row can still play it, and the target
is a few characters of text inside a row. On touch that is a delay on
an ambiguous target, and since #63 the row's own tap claims the click
anyway -- so the link was unreachable as well as fiddly.

So below the phone breakpoint a name renders as plain text and the
row's context menu carries the destination instead: `go-to-menu.ts`
draws "Go to Artist" / "Go to Album" under exactly the condition the
link is not, using `explore-link`'s own exported routing so an untagged
entity reaches the library page by the same lookup.

Three things this leans on. Suppressing a link with no menu behind it
is not a smaller affordance but a destination the phone cannot reach,
so `keepOnPhone` is the exception for the three surfaces with no row
menu. The items are drawn for a single selection only, which is the
Play item's rule one step on. And there is no "Go to Genre", because
no row renders a genre link to lose -- that would be new navigation
rather than a replacement.

+
+**It downloads the real catalog.** `YJ_CORE_INDEX_URL` is stubbed in

+entirely this.

+and check `jobs.Service.GetJobs` afterwards -- an empty array is the
+only proof. `jobs.Service.ClearFinishedJobs` tidies the finished rows
+that otherwise keep the band open.
+
+**A library added over the bridge does not dismiss the first-run
+wizard.** `library.Library.AddLibrary` works and scans, but the wizard
+checks for an existing library once, on mount, and its "Get Started"
+button gates on a directory chosen *in the wizard* -- so it stays up
+with a correctly disabled button over everything you are trying to
+measure. Nothing is broken; reload the page and it is gone. This reads
+exactly like a tap being swallowed, which is the expensive part.
+
+**Scoped storage decides where the music can be.** `/sdcard/Music/...`
+plus `pm grant <pkg> android.permission.READ_MEDIA_AUDIO` works and
+`AddLibrary` takes the plain path; a push into
+`/sdcard/Android/data/<pkg>/files/` looks like it worked and then is not

+`appops set <pkg> MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE allow`, and until they have it
+the app opens the *system* "All files access" screen on launch -- so

+`make ui-visual` is the same suite with nine `toMatchScreenshot`
+baselines switched on. **Nothing runs it but a person**, deliberately,

+baselines were recorded on Arch, and replayed in a bare `ubuntu:24.04`

+have nothing to do with any component.
+
+| baseline | Arch | ubuntu:24.04 |

+| `track-info` | passes | ratio 0.03 differ |
+| `seek-bar` | 1152×18 | 1152×17 |
+
+The two references that were genuinely stale did not even agree about
+their *new* size — `now-playing` renders 1152×65 on Arch and 1152×64 in
+the container. So moving CI's `check` job from `make ui-test` to

+container-recorded baseline set, which every local run would then fail
+against. That is the same trap the other way round, and a pre-push hook
+is the same fault again — one machine's baselines against everybody
+else's renderer.
+
+So the tier stays local and opt-in, and the rule that replaces the gate
+is:
+
+- **A change that moves a component's geometry refreshes that
+  component's reference in the same commit, having read the image.**
+  Look at the PNG; the dimensions in the failure message are the cheap
+  half of the answer.

+  four of them drifted across three unrelated merges, and every red run
+  made the next person likelier to stop running the tier than to read
+  it.
+- **State the world the shot is taken in.** The stores are singletons,
+  so a visual case that sets nothing photographs whatever the previous
+  case left behind — which is how the sidebar's baseline came to have
+  Tracks lit and `now-playing`'s to be playing from a dynamic mix.
+- **Record one file with `make ui-visual-update UI_ARGS=<path>`**, and
+  check `git status` before committing either way. That filter is only
+  honoured since #204: the recipe was a bare `--update`, and vitest
+  takes the following positional as the flag's value, so the path was
+  swallowed and *every* baseline was re-recorded — blessing any stale
+  one in silence.
+
+What the tier is worth, for the record: it is a *layout* check, blind to
+colour (the component tier has no `:root`, so it renders the fallbacks —
+`make ui-visual` passed unchanged through a whole palette rewrite,
+twice), and it has caught one thing nothing else could — swapping
+`library-status-indicator`'s `<button>` for a `<span>` lost the UA
+stylesheet's `box-sizing` and grew the badge 36→38px.

+## Now Playing was not drawing a small square, it was drawing a crop (measured 2026-08-21, TLP301 / Chrome 113 / 424x439)
+
+#172 handed #51 a design question — whether the album art gets a floor
+with the block scrolling, or whether the screen reflows below some
+height. Measuring it first turned up a defect underneath the question,
+and the defect is bigger than the phone.
+
+**The art was never square.** `aspect-ratio` is specified not to
+re-derive the width when `max-height` clamps the height — unlike an
+intrinsic ratio, which CSS2.1 10.4 preserves under both bounds. So
+`width: min(100%, 60vh)` made the width definite, the ratio derived a
+height from it, `max-height: 100%` clipped that height, and the width
+stayed where it was. `object-fit: cover` then cropped a square cover
+into the band. On the device: **264x53**, a 5:1 strip. #172's own table
+called it "39px of art" and the missing half is that those 39px were
+263 wide.
+
+**And it is not only the phone.** The leftover exceeds the width only
+above ~843px of viewport, so every height from ~500 to ~843 drew a
+crop too — most phones, and any short window. The e2e spec written for
+this fails on the old build at 424x439 (263x39), 390x700 (358x315) and
+900x500 (300x36), and *passes* at 412x869, which is the boundary
+falling exactly where the arithmetic says it should.
+
+**Both maxes with auto sizes is the whole fix**, and it was chosen by
+asking Chrome 113 rather than by reasoning: a probe shadow root at
+column heights of 288, 300, 451, 600 and 800 measured four candidate
+rules. `max-width/max-height: 100%` with `width/height: auto` is square
+at all five; the shipped rule cropped at four; `aspect-ratio` on the
+box cropped at the tallest. A corollary that makes it free: `auto` will
+not upscale past the natural size, and the largest tier `saveCoverArt`
+keeps is 400px, so nothing is lost by never exceeding it.
+
+**The placeholder cannot use that rule and needed its own**, which is
+the part that would have shipped broken. It is not a replaced element,
+so with no intrinsic size auto/auto collapses it to its icon —
+measured at **13x58**, neither square nor the art's size. Three things
+about the rule it did get:
+
+- It is driven from the **height**, which is the axis that binds
+  everywhere this view is reached from.
+- A flex item's automatic minimum is its content, so without
+  `min-width: 0` the icon's own width becomes a floor and the box goes
+  wider than it is tall the moment the row is shorter than the icon —
+  which is exactly the state a job band puts this screen in.
+- **A non-replaced box cannot express "the largest square that fits" at
+  all**, because whichever max clamps does not re-derive the other. The
+  height-driven rule alone went **380x484** at 412x869 — a tall phone,
+  #51's other named device — and `max-height: calc(100vw - 2rem)` is
+  what closes it. That is sound here for the reason `60vh` was not: this
+  is a phone-width detail view, so its content box really is the
+  viewport less the host's own gutters, and it is a *max*, so if that
+  ever stopped being true the failure is a square bounded early rather
+  than a crop. `rem` and not `em` — the box sets `font-size: 3rem` for
+  the icon, so `2em` there is 96px.
+
+**Then the design question, and the reflow is the answer.** The
+stacked layout's budget is fixed — 48px of header, 143px of transport
+since #64, 78px of names, 68px of padding and gaps — so the art gets
+`height - 386`, which is 53px at 439. A floor on the art scrolls the
+transport off the bottom, and "controls never scroll off" is #51's own
+Direction and plan 018's promise. So below 500px the art and the names
+share a row, where the art is bounded by the row's height rather than
+by the column's leftover: **53px to 143px on the device**, measured on
+the shipped build, with nothing scrolling and the transport untouched.
+
+**500 is where the two layouts cross, not a round number.** In a row
+the art is `height - 296` and the names get what is left of 392px, so
+the names hold 176px at exactly 500 and less above it; stacked, the art
+is `height - 386`, which passes 176px at 562. It is keyed on height
+alone rather than on the phone's width because it is an answer to
+vertical room — a 900x450 window has the same problem and the same fix.
+
+Two things the audit found that are *not* this, and are filed:
+**#186**, every control that is not the transport is under the 44px
+floor (the sort direction arrow is 28x21, and `search-trigger` — which
+exists only on a phone — is 40x40), and **#187**, the seek bar's drag
+target is 6px tall.
+
+**What the audit did not find is a reachability failure**, which is
+worth recording because it is the promise plan 018 makes. At 424x439,
+on every view -- the ten primary ones, the queue, `album-details`,
+`artist-details`, Downloads and Autotag -- `documentElement.scrollWidth`
+is 424 against a 424 viewport, no control sits outside a scrollable
+ancestor, and a hit test at each control's centre reaches the control.
+The width work of #57, #62, #55 and #59 holds; what was left was
+vertical, and it was this screen.
+
+**A number measured on the device is not a number CI can assert.** The
+spec's floor on the art's height passed here at 114 and failed in CI at
+**64**, and both are honest: this app is long-lived, so a job staged by
+an earlier spec is still on screen, and `volume-control` renders in a
+browser where it does not on Android. Both are chrome above and below
+the view and both move the leftover. That is the same trap the entry
+above about staged jobs describes, arriving as a *measurement* rather
+than as a stuck job. The assertion is the mechanism now -- in a row the
+art fills the row's height rather than being the leftover -- and the
+53-to-143 stays on the issue, where it was measured.
+
+The probe is worth keeping in mind for the next audit, because two of
+its three checks needed a second pass to mean anything. "Painted
+outside the viewport" flags a horizontally scrolling carousel -- the
+home shelves -- so the real question is whether a *scrollable ancestor*
+can bring the element back. And a hit test at a control's centre flags
+everything below the fold in a scroll container, so it only says
+something once the control is on screen. Both first drafts produced
+long lists of nothing.
+
+## Two traps that cost time on the device, both already written down (2026-08-21)
+
+Recorded because both are in `android-tier.md` and I met them anyway.
+
+**A fresh install downloads the real catalog**, so `job-band` is 103px
+of a 439px screen and every vertical measurement is wrong. Worse, it
+**restarts**: `explore.Service.StopIndexBuild` returns cleanly and the
+job is `running` again within seconds, so it has to be stopped again
+immediately before a measurement rather than once at the start.
+`YJ_CORE_INDEX_URL` is stubbed in `dev-headless.sh` and in CI and is
+real on a device.
+
+**The first-run wizard does not re-check for a library it did not
+create.** Adding one through `library.Library.AddLibrary` over the
+bridge leaves the wizard up with its "Get Started" button correctly
+disabled — it gates on a directory chosen *in the wizard*, and the
+existing-library check runs once, on mount. A reload clears it. Nothing
+is broken; it cost twenty minutes of believing a tap had been swallowed.

+## The sheet's scroll fade, and where a scrim may not go (measured 2026-08-23, headless)
+
+#207's answer. The affordance is two background layers on
+`wa-dialog::part(body)` and the conditionality is
+`background-attachment`, not a scroll listener: a cover of the sheet's
+own colour painted at the end of the *content* (`local`) over a shadow
+pinned to the box (`scroll`), so the cover scrolls up and hides the
+shadow exactly when there is nothing more to see.
+
+Measured at 424x360 (which is where a menu overflows on `main`, since
+`main` does not yet carry #67's eighth item — at 424x439 the track
+list's seven items are `scrollHeight` 364 against `clientHeight` 364,
+fitting exactly). Pixel at x=300, dark ramp, `bgElevated` `#343a40`:
+
+| y | before | more below | at the end of the list |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 330 | 52,58,64 | 50,56,62 | 52,58,64 |
+| 340 | 52,58,64 | 43,48,53 | 52,58,64 |
+| 350 | 52,58,64 | 33,37,40 | 52,58,64 |
+| 359 | 52,58,64 | 22,24,27 | 52,58,64 |
+
+Three things worth keeping.
+
+**A menu that fits draws nothing**, which is the same measurement: at
+424x439 the sheet is flat 52,58,64 to its bottom edge, because with no
+overflow the `local` layer's positioning area *is* the padding box and
+the cover lands on top of the shadow.
+
+**A scrim over a menu row is that row's text surface**, so the 4.5:1
+rule reaches it and this is why the curve is steep rather than linear.
+A row is 48px with its label centred; 32px of scrim already down to a
+quarter strength at 14px puts about 0.06 at the label. Checked on the
+light ramp (`bgElevated` `#e9ecef`, text `#212529`) by overriding the
+two custom properties on `:root`: background at the label 205,207,210,
+which is **9.9:1**. The first draft — a linear 48px at 0.8 — put ~0.375
+on that label, 5.0:1, passing but visibly greyed. The bottom few pixels
+go to ~2.4:1 in either draft and are deliberately below where any
+label of a *fully visible* row sits; a label that lands there belongs
+to the half-cut row, which is the thing being signalled.
+
+**A dark scrim on a dark surface reads far worse in a shrunk screenshot
+than on screen.** The first two probes (24px/0.45, then 32px/0.75) were
+measurably present — 52,58,64 down to 30,33,37 — and invisible in the
+inline preview. Crop the bottom 70px and scale it up before judging;
+the pixel values are the honest answer either way.
+
+## The phone's context sheet is now longer than the phone (measured 2026-08-23, headless at 424x439)
+
+#67 moves two destinations into every row menu, and the track list's
+menu is where that runs out of screen. Measured against the running
+app at the reference viewport, one row selected:
+
+| menu | items | first item top | last item bottom |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| queue panel | 7 | 95 | 431 |
+| track list | 8 | 86 | **470** |
+
+The viewport is 439. So the track list's last item — "Remove from
+Library" — is below the fold. It is **not unreachable**: the sheet is a
+`wa-dialog` whose body is `overflow-y: auto`, measured `scrollHeight`
+412 against `clientHeight` 373, and scrolling it 39px brings that item
+fully into view (383–431). What it has is no *affordance*: nothing on
+screen says the list continues.
+
+Two things worth knowing before adding a ninth item anywhere.
+
+**The limit was already reached, and this is what crossed it.** Seven
+48px rows in a 373px body is 364px — the queue's menu fits with 8px to
+spare and the track list's fitted exactly. Any item added to any of the
+fourteen menus after #60 was going to be the one that overflowed; the
+first one simply happened to be this.
+
+**The measurement has to be taken with a row selected**, since the
+`Go to` items are drawn for a single selection only, and on the *first*
+track of the fixture library — which has no album (`01 Tone A`,
+`02 Tone B`) — only "Go to Artist" appears. That is the 8 above; an
+ordinary track makes it 9.
+
+Filed as its own issue rather than fixed in #67's diff: it is a
+property of the shared sheet (`components/menu-surface/`), not of the
+items.

+one — `utils/long-press.ts` currently owns the 500ms hold, and every
+context menu in the app is downstream of it.
+
+This document is that design. Everything below is a measurement, or an
+argument for one of the choices #63 leaves open.
+
+---
+
+## The mapping
+
+| gesture | pointer is a finger | pointer is a mouse |
+|---|---|---|
+| single tap / click | **play the row** | select the row |
+| double | — | play the row |
+| long press (500ms) | **enter selection mode** | — |
+| right-click | — | context menu |
+| swipe right | **add to queue** | — |
+| drag | reorder / drag to playlist | reorder / drag to playlist |
+
+Three of those are #63's report unchanged. Two are decisions it left
+open, and one is a deliberate divergence.
+
+---
+
+## Decision 1 — the predicate is the pointer, not the platform
+
+#63 says "the row component needs a platform-aware interaction layer
+rather than shared handlers". It needs an interaction layer; it should
+not be platform-aware.
+
+**The question a row has to answer is not "am I on Android" or "is the
+viewport under 600px" but "what made this event".** `pointerType ===
+'touch'`, read off the event that is being handled, which is already
+how `long-press.ts` decides (`if (e.pointerType !== 'touch') return`)
+and is the only such test in the frontend today.
+
+This is #64's rule — the predicate is named after the capability, not
+the platform — and it carries #64's warning with it. Keyed on a width:
+
+- an Android **tablet** at 600px or more gets click-selects /
+  double-click-plays on a touchscreen, which is the exact inversion
+  this issue exists to fix, on the platform it exists for;
+- a **touchscreen laptop** cannot be described at all, because both
+  pointers are live in the same session on the same row;
+- and a narrow desktop window gets phone semantics with a mouse.
+
+Per event, all three are right for free, and there is no second
+declaration of what a phone does — the thing CLAUDE.md declines to add
+every time it comes up.
+
+**Measured, so this is not an assumption about the WebView.** On the
+reference device (TLP301, Android 14, WebView Chrome 113, 424x439),
+driving a real tap with `adb shell input tap`:
+
+```
+[["down","touch",78,94],["touchstart","touchstart",0,0],["up","touch",78,94]]
+```
+
+`PointerEvent` exists, `pointerType` is `"touch"`, `maxTouchPoints` is
+5, and `(pointer: coarse)` / `(hover: none)` both match.
+
+---
+
+## Decision 2 — there is no double-tap, and the number is why
+
+#63 asks for *single tap → play* **and** *double tap → context menu*.
+Those two cannot both be honoured. The first tap of a double tap is
+indistinguishable from a single tap until the interval expires, so
+"tap plays" necessarily becomes "tap waits to find out whether you
+meant something else, then plays". The app already owns that constant:
+`utils/explore-link.ts` holds a navigation for `DOUBLE_CLICK_GRACE_MS
+= 250` for precisely this reason.
+
+**What it would be added to, measured on the device.** Six runs, from
+the play command to the backend's `TrackChanged`:
+
+```
+155, 123, 85, 56, 91 ms          median ~100
+```
+
+So the app's primary interaction is ~100ms, and a double-tap
+discriminator makes it ~350 — **3.5x, of which 250ms is spent
+deliberately doing nothing** — paid on every track anyone ever plays,
+in order to reach a menu.
+
+It is also against the platform's convention, which counts for more
+than usual here because this is the phone build and nothing else:
+long-press is *how you select* on Android (Gmail, Files, Photos),
+double-tap is zoom or nothing, and a list's menu is either the
+long-press sheet or a per-row overflow.
+
+**So the menu and the selection action bar become the same surface**,
+which is the convention and removes a concept rather than adding one.
+Long-press selects the row it was made on and raises the action bar;
+the bar's actions *are* the context menu's actions, contextualised to
+whatever is selected — one row or forty. #60's bottom sheet stays
+behind it as the overflow, so `contextMenuStyles`, `MenuKeyboard` and
+`menu-surface` are reused rather than reimplemented.
+
+---
+
+## Decision 3 — tap-to-play and selection mode ship together
+
+The obvious phase order is "tap plays first, it is the smallest
+change". It is wrong, and the reason is a capability that exists today
+and is easy to miss.
+
+**A touch user can already multi-select**: tap selects (the desktop
+semantics, which a finger currently gets), and the long-press menu then
+acts on the selection. Move tap to play without shipping selection mode
+in the same change and there is a window — a release, if it lands — in
+which selecting forty tracks to add to a playlist is impossible on a
+phone. That is a regression dressed as an increment.
+
+So phase 1 is both, or neither.
+
+---
+
+## What the code looks like now
+
+| surface | how it binds | selection |
+|---|---|---|
+| `track-list` | delegated on the virtualizer: `click`, `dblclick`, `contextmenu`, `dragstart` | `SelectionController` |
+| `queue-panel` | delegated, same shape | `SelectionController` |
+| `playlist-details` | per row | `SelectionController` |
+| `smart-playlist-details` | per row | `SelectionController` |
+
+All four already share `SelectionController`, and all four resolve a
+row from an event by `data-index` / `data-file-path` on the row. So the
+gesture layer has one shape to talk to, and "selection mode" is a flag
+on the controller they already have rather than a fifth concept.
+
+`utils/long-press.ts` is one document-capture listener that synthesises
+a `contextmenu` — the seam that needed no component to opt in. **This
+plan keeps that shape and changes what the gesture means**, which is
+why it is a rewrite of that file rather than a second listener set: two
+document listeners both claiming the 500ms hold is the fault the file's
+own header warns about.
+
+---
+
+## Two measurements that decide the implementation
+
+**`touch-action` is `auto` on both the virtualizer and the rows.** With
+`auto` the browser owns panning on both axes, so a horizontal drag can
+be claimed as a scroll and our gesture ends in `pointercancel`
+mid-swipe. A row that wants a horizontal swipe has to declare
+`touch-action: pan-y`: the browser keeps the vertical pan (which is the
+virtualizer's scroll, and must stay native or the list stutters) and
+hands us the horizontal axis. This is the single most likely way for
+swipe-to-queue to "work in Chromium and not on the phone".
+
+**The row is 424x52 on the device**, so a swipe threshold in px is a
+fraction of a row height, not of a screen.
+
+**And the third one was found by building phase 1 and then running it**
+— it is not something any browser tier can report. Chrome 113's Android
+WebView **fires its own `contextmenu` on a long press**. `long-press.ts`
+stood down when a trusted one arrived, which was right while both paths
+ended in the same place; once a hold can mean selection mode they end
+in different places, and standing down means the gesture silently does
+the *old* thing. Measured, before the fix:
+
+```
+{"log":["contextmenu isTrusted=true"],
+ "state":{"bar":null,"menuActive":true,"selected":1}}
+```
+
+`yj-long-press` was never announced at all, the context menu opened,
+and all 26 tests in the component tier passed — dispatched pointer
+events do not make a browser synthesise a `contextmenu`.
+
+So the browser's event is a **trigger, not a competitor**: the gesture
+is announced from it, and only a component that claims it suppresses
+the native menu. Unclaimed, it propagates untouched. That is the same
+"browser wins" outcome, reached by asking instead of assuming — and
+verified both ways on the device, a track row entering selection mode
+and an album card still opening its menu.
+
+The tier could not *find* it and can *hold* it: a test cannot dispatch
+a trusted event, but this module has always told its own apart by
+identity rather than `isTrusted`, so an untrusted one from a test takes
+exactly the browser's path.
+
+---
+
+## A tier note: this one can be driven, not only measured
+
+`adb shell input tap|swipe` reaches the WebView as real pointer events,
+which the log above is evidence of. So for the first time the Android
+tier can *perform* the thing under test rather than describe the page
+afterwards — a long press is `input swipe X Y X Y 600`, a swipe right
+is `input swipe X Y X+N Y 120`.
+
+Device CSS pixels from device pixels, on this phone:
+`css = (device - 59) / 2.564` vertically, `css = device / 2.564`
+horizontally (measured from the tap above: 200,300 arrived as 78,94).
+
+This does not make the device a spec tier — it does not run in CI and
+`make ui-test` still has to carry the assertions. It makes "does the
+gesture actually fire on Chrome 113" answerable in seconds.
+
+---
+
+## Phases
+
+**Phase 1 — the seam, tap-to-play, selection mode.** `utils/
+touch-gestures.ts` replacing `long-press.ts`: pointer-typed
+recognition of tap / long-press / horizontal swipe, dispatched as
+composed custom events so a delegated listener in any shadow root
+still works. `SelectionController` gains a mode. `track-list` acts on
+tap and enters the mode on long press. The action bar.
+
+**Phase 2 — swipe right to queue**, with the `touch-action: pan-y`
+finding above and a reveal-and-snap affordance. **Shipped**; what the
+device said about it is the section below.
+
+**Phase 3 — the other three surfaces**, which is mostly wiring, since
+they already share the controller. **Shipped**, and it was not entirely
+wiring — see below.
+
+**Phase 4 — what this leaves behind.** The inline `explore-link`s in a
+row are a single-click target inside a row whose single tap now plays;
+that conflict is #67's, and this plan should not pre-empt its answer
+beyond making tap-to-play win on touch. **Shipped.**
+
+## Phase 3 was not symmetric, in two places
+
+**A tap on a queue row plays that position**, not the list. Copying
+`track-list`'s tap — which sets the queue to the list the row is in —
+would rebuild the queue *from* the queue, discarding its source, its
+shuffle order and everything a user had inserted by hand. It reads as a
+no-op and is not one.
+
+**The queue panel has no swipe, deliberately.** A right swipe means
+*add to the queue* everywhere else it exists, and a queue row is
+already in the queue; the only thing it could mean there is *remove*,
+which is the same gesture with the opposite effect one screen away —
+the fault `utils/icon-language.ts` exists to have fixed for glyphs.
+Removing a queue row is on the row itself (the ×), on its bottom sheet
+since #60, and on the selection bar this phase gave it. The assertion
+is that its rows do **not** carry `data-swipe`, so a swipe there cannot
+silently become a second meaning for the app's one horizontal gesture.
+
+And the affordance became `utils/swipe-to-queue.ts` rather than being
+copied twice. Three lists want it; three copies of "how far is far
+enough" is three chances for them to disagree, which is what
+`utils/library-status.ts` and `utils/ownership.ts` each exist to have
+stopped happening. The shared stylesheet is keyed on `[data-swipe]`
+rather than on a class name, because the three lists call their rows
+two different things and the `touch-action` half of the device fix has
+to reach all of them.
+
+## Phase 4 was already true, which is why it is asserted
+
+A claimed tap has its click swallowed at document capture, so an
+`explore-link` inside the row never sees one and tap-to-play wins with
+no rule of its own. Nothing in the suite would have failed if that
+stopped covering the link, and the symptom — tapping a track's *title*
+navigating to its album instead of playing it — is one a phone user
+meets constantly and a mouse user never does.
+
+**Its test was vacuous when written**, in the way this file keeps
+finding: the tap helper dispatched `pointerdown` and `pointerup` and no
+`click`, so there was nothing to swallow and the assertion held on any
+build. It sends the trailing click now, which also strengthened phase
+1's "a tap plays and does not also select". The fixture needed an MBID
+for the same reason — without one the link asks the backend for a local
+album first and gives up when nothing answers, so "it did not navigate"
+was true of a working build and a broken one alike.
+
+---
+
+## What phase 2 measured, which was not what phase 2 predicted
+
+The `touch-action` finding above is **half** of the answer, and
+shipping only that half would have been the exact failure it warns
+about. Driving a real finger with `adb shell input swipe` across a
+track row, three values, all three on the device:
+
+```
+touch-action: auto    pointerdown, 1 move,  pointercancel
+touch-action: pan-y   pointerdown, 2 moves, pointercancel
+touch-action: none    pointerdown, 2 moves, pointercancel
+```
+
+`touchmove` kept firing in all three. So **Chrome 113's WebView
+cancels the pointer stream ~16px into any drag whatever `touch-action`
+says**, and a swipe recognised from `pointermove` — which is what the
+rest of this module is built on — is a swipe that dies 16px in.
+
+The other half is a **non-passive `touchmove` calling
+`preventDefault()`**: with it, the same swipe ran to 12 moves and a
+`pointerup` at full travel. And both halves are required, which was
+measured rather than assumed — with the `preventDefault` in place and
+`touch-action` back at `auto`, the gesture died after **one** move.
+The reading is that `auto` lets the browser commit to a horizontal pan
+on the first move past slop, before any threshold of ours can have
+been crossed, while `pan-y` leaves it undecided long enough for the
+second move to claim it.
+
+`none` is the one value to avoid: the list stopped scrolling at all.
+With the shipped pair, a vertical drag still scrolls the virtualizer
+81px on the same run that a horizontal one survives.
+
+**`draggable="true"` is not a competitor**, which is the other thing
+the device was asked. No `dragstart` fires from a touch drag on this
+WebView at all, so the drag-to-playlist attribute on every row needs no
+pointer-type gate.
+
+### And it found a phase 1 defect that no tier can see
+
+The native `contextmenu` arrives in **either** order, and phase 1 only
+handled one of them. `nativeSeen` covers the browser's menu arriving
+*during* the hold. The reverse — our 500ms timer firing first, a
+component claiming it, and Chrome delivering its own `contextmenu`
+50–70ms *later* — was suppressed by nothing, so the context menu
+opened on top of the selection bar. Measured over four holds:
+
+```
+hold 1  yj-long-press, then contextmenu isTrusted=true   menu open
+hold 2  yj-long-press                                    clean
+hold 3  yj-long-press, then contextmenu isTrusted=true   menu open
+hold 4  yj-long-press                                    clean
+```
+
+Two in four, on the one surface #63 exists to have changed, and
+invisible to both browser tiers because neither synthesises a
+`contextmenu` from a dispatched press. A press that has produced its
+outcome now suppresses a late one whichever branch it took; six holds
+on the fixed build, six clean.
+
+### The rules phase 2 settled
+
+- **A swipe is not a selection.** It queues the row it was made on,
+  unless that row is one of several *explicitly* selected — the same
+  rule the context menu answers with, because a bar reading "40
+  selected" beside a gesture that quietly queues one of them is two
+  answers to one question. It never changes the selection, which is
+  where it differs from a right-click.
+- **Rightward only.** Nothing is bound to a leftward swipe and
+  claiming one would take a gesture away to do nothing with it.
+- **The commit threshold is a fraction of the row** (0.3, floor 72px),
+  because the row is 424x52 on this device and a bare pixel count is a
+  fraction of a row height on one screen and a third of the width on
+  the next.
+- **The affordance is not only a colour** (WCAG 1.4.1, the rule the
+  playing-row marker exists for): the pane carries the queue icon and
+  words, the words change at the threshold ("Add to queue" → "Release
+  to add" → "Added"), and the outcome is announced in a live region.
+- **The row does not move; its cells do.** `.track-row` is
+  `contain: strict` with `overflow: hidden`, so a pane held at the
+  row's original position while the row translates is a pane at a
+  negative offset inside a clipping box and is simply not painted.
+  Sliding the cells needs no wrapper element in a row that is already
+  a grid.
+- **The travel is written to the row's own style, not rendered.** One
+  render at the start, one at the threshold, one at the end; a
+  virtualizer re-rendering every visible row per frame of one finger's
+  travel is the thing `perf.m1` is about.
+
+## Open questions
+
+1. **Does selection mode have an escape other than the bar's own
+   close?** *Settled: Escape, here; back, not here.*
+
+   Escape leaves the mode, from `selection-bar` rather than from each
+   of the four hosts — that element exists only while the mode does, so
+   it is the one place a dismissal can be attached and detached with
+   the thing it dismisses. It is the same documented exception the
+   overlaid queue's Escape is: **a dismissal, not a shortcut**, so it
+   is not a panel-scoped binding.
+
+   The back gesture is the half that is *not* done, and deliberately.
+   The obvious version — `selection-bar` pushing a history entry — is
+   precisely the fault `navStack` was deleted for: the shell owns the
+   stack (#6/#55) and is the only thing that calls `pushState`, so that
+   two stacks cannot disagree about what one press means. Four lists
+   each reaching for `history` is four stacks. It is also wrong on its
+   own terms, since a mode is per-component and a user who enters one,
+   navigates away and returns has an entry for a mode that no longer
+   exists. #55 settled the shape for a *place*; a mode is not one,
+   which is why it could not simply inherit that answer.
+
+   What it wants is one shell-owned register of dismissible surfaces,
+   which would retro-fit the queue overlay, the dialogs and this alike
+   rather than adding a fourth private answer. **#200.**
+
+2. **Does a tap on a row's favourite icon still toggle it in normal
+   mode?** *Settled in phase 1: yes.* A control inside the row keeps
+   its own tap — the gesture is simply not claimed there, so the click
+   behind it falls through untouched. It is the same rule the shortcut
+   service has for a focused control that owns a key, and it is what
+   keeps the 44px favourite target (#56) from becoming a 44px play
+   target. The queue row's × is the second instance of it.

+ends a *claimed* gesture is swallowed, keyed on the gesture rather than
+on a time window so the first tap on the menu it opened is not eaten
+too.
+
+Three things about it are load-bearing, and all three were found on the
+device rather than in a tier.
+
+**A browser that fires its own long-press `contextmenu` is a trigger,
+not a competitor.** Chromium does, WebKit and the WebView vary. The old
+rule was to stand down when a trusted one arrived, which was right
+while both paths ended in a context menu and is wrong the moment a hold
+can mean something else — standing down silently does the *old* thing.
+So the gesture is announced from the native event, and only a component
+that claims it suppresses that event. Ours and the browser's are told
+apart by **identity** rather than `isTrusted`, since no test can
+dispatch a trusted event.
+
+**That arrives in either order, and both have to be handled.** The
+native `contextmenu` mid-hold is one case; the other is our own 500 ms
+timer firing first and Chrome delivering its menu **50–70 ms later**,
+which nothing suppressed — measured over four holds on the reference
+phone, two took that order, so the context menu opened over the
+selection bar intermittently, on the one surface #63 changed. A press
+that has produced its outcome therefore suppresses a late
+`contextmenu` whichever branch it took.
+
+**A horizontal swipe runs on touch events, and needs two things that
+look like one.** Chrome 113's WebView cancels the *pointer* stream
+~16 px into any drag — measured at `auto`, `pan-y` and `none` alike,
+one or two `pointermove`s and then `pointercancel`, while `touchmove`
+kept firing throughout. So the recogniser is `touchmove`, the surface
+declares **`touch-action: pan-y`** *and* a claimed swipe calls
+**`preventDefault()`** on a non-passive listener. Neither works alone:
+with the `preventDefault` in place but `touch-action` back at `auto`
+the gesture died after one move, because `auto` lets the browser commit
+to a horizontal pan before any threshold can be crossed. `none` is the
+value to avoid — it takes the list's own vertical scrolling with it.
+**Both are correct in Chromium either way**, which is why this is
+written down rather than tested. The tie breaks toward scrolling, in
+that order: vertical drift past the tolerance vetoes the swipe for the
+rest of the press (a scroll that curves is still a scroll), and a
+gesture that is not *strictly* more horizontal than vertical is the
+scroller's.
+
+**And what a finger *means* on a row is the inversion of what a mouse
+means, decided per event** (#63). A click selects and a double-click
+plays; a tap **plays** and a hold enters **selection mode**, in which a
+tap toggles. The predicate is `pointerType`, never a viewport width and
+never a platform flag — #64's rule, and with #64's warning: keyed on a
+width, an Android tablet over 600px gets desktop semantics on a
+touchscreen, a touchscreen laptop cannot be described at all, and a
+narrow desktop window gets phone semantics with a mouse.
+
+There is deliberately **no double-tap**, which #63 asked for. The first
+tap of one is indistinguishable from a single tap until the interval
+expires, so tapping would have to wait `DOUBLE_CLICK_GRACE_MS` before
+acting — 250ms on top of a measured ~100ms play, 3.5x the app's primary
+interaction, to reach a menu a hold already reaches. So the menu and
+the action bar are the same surface: `components/selection-bar/` is
+presentational (a count and a list of actions, no store, no selection),
+`SelectionController` carries the mode for all four selecting surfaces,
+and #60's bottom sheet is the overflow behind "More" — so
+`contextMenuStyles`, `MenuKeyboard` and `menu-surface` are reused
+rather than reimplemented.
+
+Three things about it are load-bearing. **A control inside a row keeps
+its own tap**: the gesture is simply not claimed there, so the click
+behind it falls through, which is what stops the 44px favourite target
+(#56) becoming a 44px play target — the queue row's × is the second
+instance. **A swipe right queues**, and its affordance is
+`utils/swipe-to-queue.ts` once rather than in each of the three lists
+that draw it: the row does not move, its *children* do (a row here is
+`contain: strict` with `overflow: hidden`, so a pane held at the row's
+original position while the row translates is at a negative offset
+inside a clipping box and is not painted), the travel is written to the
+row's own style rather than rendered, and the threshold is a fraction
+of the row because the row is 424x52 on the reference device. **The
+queue panel takes the tap and the hold and refuses the swipe**, because
+a right swipe means *add to the queue* everywhere it exists and a queue
+row is already in it — the only thing it could mean there is *remove*,
+which is the same gesture with the opposite effect one screen away.
+A tap there plays that *position*, too: setting the queue to the queue
+reads as a no-op and discards its source, its shuffle order and
+anything inserted by hand.
+
+Escape leaves the mode, from `selection-bar` rather than from each
+host, since that element exists only while the mode does — the same
+exception the overlaid queue's Escape is, *a dismissal, not a
+shortcut*. The platform's back gesture deliberately does **not** reach
+it: the shell owns the history stack and four lists each reaching for
+`history` is four stacks, which is the fault `navStack` was deleted
+for. That wants one shell-owned register of dismissible surfaces, which
+is #200.
+
+**A control revealed by `:hover` is gated on the device having hover,
+and which way round depends on whether it is the only route to its
+action.** The gate itself is not optional: a touch long-press
+synthesises a hover state in the WebView, so every one of these flashed
+into view during the 500 ms hold above — a control appearing because
+the user was reaching for a different one. Where the action is reachable
+another way the control is **absent** on a touch device (the home card's
+play button, #68; the queue row's remove, which the row's bottom-sheet
+menu carries since #60), and that is `display: none` outside
+`(hover: hover) and (pointer: fine)` rather than `opacity: 0` or
+`visibility: hidden`, both of which leave a button holding its hit area
+and its place in the accessibility tree. Where the control is the
+**only** route it is instead always visible under
+`@media not all and (hover: hover)` — `track-details`'s cover-art
+overlay and remove, `shortcut-capture`'s reset (#137) — because hiding
+it takes the action away entirely.
+
+**Always-visible is not the same as always-in-the-way.** The cover-art
+overlay is `inset: 0` at 50% black, which is fine as a hover state and
+is not fine as the permanent appearance of the artwork being edited —
+and it is only a *hint*, since `.cover-art-edit` carries the click and
+tapping the art always worked. Off hover it becomes a corner chip in
+the remove button's own language. The × beside it stays full-size,
+because that one really is the only route to its action.
+
+One thing to know before checking either: **no *committed* tier renders
+as a touch device.** CDP's `Emulation.setEmulatedMedia` does not reach
+the component tier's iframe, and the e2e projects are Desktop Chrome
+and Desktop Safari, neither of which has touch — a Playwright project
+using a mobile descriptor would report `hover: none`, so this is a
+choice not to carry one rather than a thing that cannot be done. So
+`hover-affordance.test.ts` asserts the *parsed stylesheet* — which rule
+sits inside which media query — and says so; the regression it exists
+for is someone hoisting a rule out of its query as a tidy-up, which

+measured on the device, nothing scrolling, the transport untouched.
+
+Three things about it are load-bearing.
+
+**500 is where the two layouts cross rather than a round number.** In a
+row the art is `height - 296` and the names get what is left of 392px,
+so the names hold 176px at exactly 500 and less above it; stacked, the
+art is `height - 386`, which passes 176px at 562. Below 500 the row is
+the bigger art *and* the readable one — above it the column is, which
+is why a tall phone keeps the arrangement it has. It is keyed on height
+alone and not on the phone's width, because it answers vertical room: a
+900x450 window has the same problem and the same fix.
+
+**The art was not a small square, it was a crop, and that was never
+only the phone.** `aspect-ratio` is specified not to re-derive the
+width when `max-height` clamps the height — unlike an intrinsic ratio,
+which is preserved under both bounds — so a definite `width: min(100%,
+60vh)` kept its width while the height was clipped, and `object-fit:
+cover` cropped a square cover into the band: **264x53** on the device.
+The leftover exceeds the width only above ~843px of viewport, so every
+height from ~500 to ~843 drew one too. `max-width`/`max-height: 100%`
+with `width`/`height: auto` is the fix and is the replaced-element
+path; it also never upscales past the natural size, and the largest
+tier `saveCoverArt` keeps is 400px, so nothing is lost.
+
+**The placeholder needs its own rule, and a non-replaced box cannot
+express this one.** With no intrinsic size, auto/auto collapses it to
+its icon (13x58, measured). It is driven from the height instead, with
+`min-width: 0` because a flex item's automatic minimum is its content —
+without it the icon's width becomes a floor the moment the row is
+shorter than the icon, which is exactly what a job band does to this
+screen. And since whichever max clamps does not re-derive the other, a
+height-driven box goes **380x484** on a tall phone; `max-height:
+calc(100vw - 2rem)` closes it, which is sound here for the reason

+ * The other half is the scroll: the page was a fixed header over a

+ * owned 253 of the panel's 318px and the list scrolled in the 64 that
+ * were left. It is one scroll container below 600px, which is a
+ * property of the *host* rather than of `.content`.
+ *
+ * The engine is the caveat this tier cannot close: the reference device
+ * renders in Chrome 113 and this is Chromium/WebKit. A flex direction
+ * and a scroll container are nowhere near that engine's documented gaps
+ * (relaxed nesting, the Popover API, `light-dark()`), but "it renders

+ *
+ * **Two separate claims are asserted here, and only one of them is

+ *
+ * The first is that the art is *square*. It was not: `aspect-ratio` is
+ * specified not to re-derive the width when `max-height` clamps the
+ * height, so the art was drawn as a letterbox band and `object-fit:
+ * cover` cropped the cover to it — 264x53 on the reference device. The
+ * leftover only exceeds the width above ~843px of viewport, so this
+ * was every height from ~500 to ~843 as well: most phones, and any
+ * short window. That is ordinary CSS rather than a Chrome 113 quirk,
+ * so this tier can see it, and the heights below are chosen to cover
+ * the range rather than the one device.
+ *
+ * The second is the reflow: below 500px the art and the names sit side
+ * by side, which is what takes the art from 53px to 143px. That is
+ * asserted as a *relation between boxes* — the art beside the names,
+ * not above them — because the pixel count is a consequence of the
+ * arrangement and would pin this file to one device's chrome.
+ *
+ * **What this tier cannot see** is the device's engine: CI's Chromium
+ * and WebKit are current, and #60's clipping showed what that costs.
+ * Nothing here depends on Chrome 113 behaviour — the sizing rules were
+ * checked against the device itself, at column heights of 288, 300,

+ * full-screen `now-playing-view` is where seeking belongs. What went
+ * with it is the one thing a mini player is expected to say without
+ * being opened: how far through the song it is. This is that, and
+ * only that.
+ *
+ * Four things about it are load-bearing.
+ *
+ * **It is the shell's element, not either bar's.** The mini player and
+ * `<bottom-nav>` are separate components stacked in the shell's grid,
+ * so a line on the border between them is a row of the grid — either
+ * one drawing it means reaching into the other's box for two pixels.
+ *
+ * **It never counts.** The position is pushed at 1 Hz by the backend
+ * (`PlaybackPositionChanged`), and the interval here interpolates
+ * *between* those reports and is stopped and restarted by every one of
+ * them — the seek bar's rule, for the reason the seek bar has it: a
+ * local clock drifted 30 s away from the backend across four keyboard
+ * seeks. The `trackChangeId` and `seq` guards come along for the same
+ * reason: the store is a singleton, so a report about the previous
+ * track must not be adopted, and the same second reported twice still
+ * has to reset the interpolation.
+ *
+ * **It is not a control and cannot become one.** `aria-hidden` on the
+ * host and `pointer-events: none` throughout: the real progress is
+ * announced by the seek bar on Now Playing, and a 2px strip on the top
+ * edge of the tab bar that sometimes seeks is worse than one that
+ * never does. It is also where a thumb aiming at a tab lands.
+ *
+ * **It renders nothing above 600px**, from `matchMedia` rather than a
+ * media query, because that decides whether the element *exists* — and

+    /* The phone's seek bar, and this block is last on purpose.
+
+       A media query adds no specificity, so this lived above the plain
+       "wa-slider" rule and lost to it at every width: the 12px track it
+       asks for had never once applied, and the bar measured 261x6 on
+       the device while the source said 12. That is index.css's rule
+       ("the phone section is last on purpose") met inside a component's
+       own stylesheet, and nothing renders differently in any tier here
+       to say so.
+
+       The bottom bar's seek bar is display:none below this width (016
+       B2 phase 1), so the only instance a viewport media query can
+       reach is the full-screen now-playing view's -- which is exactly
+       the one a thumb uses. The desktop bar keeps its 6px, where a
+       mouse is precise and the thickness is right.
+
+       The painted track and the thing you can hit are allowed to
+       differ, and a slider is the clearest case where they should: 12px
+       is a progress bar you can see, and 44px is the app's touch floor
+       (#56). A 44px-*thick* bar would be wrong-looking and would cost
+       the album art the vertical space #51 spent an issue recovering.
+
+       Two things about how the target is built.
+
+       The padding goes on ::part(slider) rather than on the host,
+       because that inner div is what carries the gesture -- it has the
+       listener and the touch-action: none, and it is exactly the host's
+       size, so padding the host would grow a box that does not take the
+       press.
+
+       The padding is asymmetric and the margins cancel it, so the row
+       does not grow by the difference. Both halves are measured: the
+       seek row is 19px (its clocks, not the track, decide that) and the
+       play button's top edge is 8px below it, so the target takes the
+       space *above*, where .art is a non-interactive div. Growing the
+       row instead cost the art 25px of 143. Verified on the device at
+       424x439: hit area 44px, painted track 12px, row still 19px, art
+       still 143px, 8px of clearance left under the play button, a press
+       26px above the track seeks, and a hit test on the play button's
+       top edge still reaches the play button. */

-               and is bounded by nothing: at the reference device's

-               centred flex item and drew over the header above and the
-               title below it. The comment claimed this was handled;
-               60vh is a bound on the *viewport*, not on the room left
-               over, and those differ by however much chrome is above
-               and below.
+               The previous rule asked for a square and did not get
+               one. width: min(100%, 60vh) makes the width definite,

+               from ~500 to ~843 -- most phones, and any small window
+               -- drew a cropped strip too.
+
+               Both maxes with auto sizes is the fix, and it is the
+               replaced-element path rather than the aspect-ratio

+               A corollary worth knowing: auto will not upscale past

+               floor -- the number #56 set for the transport and the
+               queue header already keeps (#186).
+
+               It is min-size rather than padding with a negative
+               margin, which is what the seek bar needed (#187), and
+               the difference is worth stating because it decides
+               whether targets can collide. There the painted track had
+               to stay thin, so the target was grown past its own box
+               and had to be checked against its neighbours. Here the
+               control *is* the target: the boxes are flex items, so
+               the gap keeps them apart and no two can overlap by
+               construction.
+
+               There is no phone branch. With the target being the box,
+               a 44px control on a desktop is merely large, and a
+               second declaration of what a phone shows is a second
+               thing to keep in step -- which is the reason this
+               component has never had one. It also avoids a media
+               query that no tier here renders, which is exactly how
+               the seek bar's phone rule came to be dead for months.
+
+               **The height is the box and the width is not**, and that
+               asymmetry is the whole of what the overflow fit below
+               cares about. That pass measures inline size, so a taller
+               control costs it nothing and a wider one costs it
+               directly. Growing the two square controls to 44px wide
+               added 22px, which fits at every width Chromium was
+               checked at and clipped the overflow trigger at 320px in
+               **WebKit** -- the engine closest to what actually ships,
+               and the one no machine here can run. So the horizontal
+               half is padding with the margin cancelling it, which is
+               what the issue asked for in the first place: the target
+               grows and the layout does not.
+
+               The cost is that a horizontal target can now overlap a
+               neighbour, which the box version could not. The arrow's
+               is deliberately lopsided for the seek bar's reason
+               (#187): the select is 6px to its left and there is open
+               space to its right, so it takes the side with nothing to
+               steal from. */

+ * What a selection can have done to it, while a finger is holding one.
+ *
+ * This is the context menu (plan 019, #63). Not a second surface
+ * beside it — the same actions, contextualised to whatever is
+ * selected, in the shape Android puts them in.
+ *
+ * #63 asked for a double tap to open the menu instead. That mapping
+ * costs the app's primary interaction 250ms on every play, because the
+ * first tap of a double tap is indistinguishable from a single tap
+ * until the interval expires, and playing a track is ~100ms end to end
+ * on the reference device. So there is no double tap: a long press
+ * selects, this says what can be done, and the sheet behind "More" is
+ * the same `menu-surface` every other menu in the app opens.
+ *
+ * Four things about it are load-bearing.
+ *
+ * **It is presentational.** It takes a count and a list of actions and
+ * emits `selection-action` / `selection-exit`; it holds no selection
+ * and calls no store. The host already owns a `SelectionController`
+ * and an action handler, and a bar that reached for either would be a
+ * second definition of what "play the selection" means — the fault
+ * `utils/library-status.ts` exists to have fixed one feature over.
+ *
+ * **The bar is only what fits, and "More" is the rest.** A context
+ * menu can be nine items because it is a sheet; a bar is one row on a
+ * 424px screen. So the host passes the two or three worth a thumb and
+ * the overflow opens the menu it already renders, which is what keeps
+ * every action reachable at every size — plan 018's promise, and the
+ * reason this cannot simply drop the long tail.
+ *
+ * **Its controls are 44px** (#56, #186), and the count is a live
+ * region: the number changes under the user's finger as they tap rows,
+ * and nothing else on screen announces it.
+ *
+ * **Escape leaves the mode, from here rather than from each host.**
+ * This element exists only while the mode does, so it is the one place
+ * a dismissal can be attached and detached with the thing it
+ * dismisses. It is the same exception the overlaid queue's Escape is.
+ *
+ * **It renders nothing at zero.** The mode ends when the last row is
+ * deselected — `SelectionController.toggleInMode` is where that is
+ * decided — so a bar with a count of none is a state this should never
+ * be asked to draw, and drawing it anyway would hide the fact that it
+ * has been.

+ * does not draw: measured on the reference device (TLP301, 424x439),

+ * shortest controls on the page, and the only ones whose height is
+ * decided inside somebody else's shadow root.
+ *
+ * `--wa-form-control-height` is that decision, and it is the library's
+ * own theming variable rather than a part or an internal — the default
+ * theme sets it at `:root` and every control that has a height reads
+ * it (button, input, select, radio). So this is `wa-slider-label`'s

+ * Three things about it are load-bearing.

+ * **A custom property inherits through a shadow boundary**, which is

+ * floor; a `size="large"` added later would be pinned down to 44 and
+ * should take that as the prompt to revisit this.
+ *
+ * **Only the height is pinned.** The font size still comes from

-/**
- * Long-press as the touch equivalent of a right-click (plan 016 B2,
- * phase 3).
- *
- * Every context menu in the app opens from a `contextmenu` event —
- * `track-list` and `queue-panel` delegate one on their virtualizer,
- * the card grids and both playlist detail views bind one per row, and
- * `explore-artist-details` binds three. A phone has no right-click, so
- * a phone reached none of them.
- *
- * **This is one document listener, not six components' worth of touch
- * handling.** A press that stays still for `LONG_PRESS_MS` dispatches a
- * synthetic `contextmenu` at the touch point on the element the touch
- * actually landed on, and every existing handler — delegated or
- * per-row, in any shadow root — runs unchanged. Six implementations of
- * a gesture is exactly the fault `ContextMenuController` exists to
- * prevent, and a seam that needs no component to opt in cannot be
- * forgotten by the next component.
- *
- * Three things about it are load-bearing.
- *
- * **The target comes from `composedPath()[0]`, not from
- * `elementFromPoint`**, which stops at the outermost shadow host: every
- * menu in this app is bound inside one, so a synthetic event dispatched
- * on the host reaches a delegated listener and no per-row one.
- *
- * **A browser that already does this must win.** Chromium fires a
- * `contextmenu` on long-press itself; WebKitGTK and the Android WebView
- * vary. So one arriving during the press cancels ours, and one arriving
- * just after ours is swallowed at document capture — where nothing else
- * has seen it yet. The two are told apart by **identity** (a `WeakSet`
- * of the events this module made) rather than by `isTrusted`, so the
- * suppressor cannot eat the event it exists to deliver, the rule holds
- * for anything else in the app that synthesises one, and a test can
- * stand in for a browser that fires its own.
- *
- * **The click that ends the gesture is swallowed.** A row's click
- * selects, and a card's plays; without this, opening a menu also
- * activates the thing under it. It is keyed on the gesture (cleared by
- * the next `pointerdown`) rather than on a time window, so a quick tap
- * on the menu that just opened is not eaten too.

+ * It was `track-list`'s own for one phase and is here rather than
+ * copied twice, on the rule the rest of this app is built on — three
+ * copies of "how far is far enough" is three chances for them to
+ * disagree, which is what `utils/library-status.ts` and
+ * `utils/ownership.ts` each exist to have stopped happening.
+ *
+ * The host keeps three things: what a row *is*, what a swipe on it
+ * would queue, and what to call it afterwards. Everything else —
+ * the threshold, the reveal, the settle, the announcement, the
+ * repaint — is here.
+ *
+ * **The queue panel deliberately does not use it.** A right swipe means
+ * *add to the queue* everywhere it exists, and a queue row is already
+ * in the queue; the only thing it could sensibly mean there is
+ * *remove*, which is the same gesture with the opposite effect one
+ * screen away. Removing a queue row is on its own row (the ×), on its
+ * bottom sheet since #60, and on the selection bar #63 gave it.
+ *
+ * Five things about it are load-bearing.
+ *
+ * **Both halves of the device fix are here or next door.**
+ * `swipeRevealStyles` carries `touch-action: pan-y` on `[data-swipe]`,
+ * and `utils/touch-gestures.ts` carries the non-passive
+ * `preventDefault`. Chrome 113's WebView cancels the pointer stream
+ * ~16px into any drag whatever `touch-action` says, and with the
+ * `preventDefault` alone but `touch-action` at `auto` the gesture dies
+ * after one move. Neither works without the other and **both are
+ * correct in Chromium either way**, which is why the component tier
+ * asserts the stylesheet rather than the rendering.
+ *
+ * **The row does not move; its cells do.** A row here is
+ * `contain: strict` with `overflow: hidden`, so translating the row
+ * and counter-translating a pane inside it puts that pane at a
+ * negative offset inside a clipping box, where it is simply not
+ * painted. Sliding the children instead leaves the pane where it was
+ * drawn, clips the cells off the right edge, and needs no wrapper
+ * element in a row that is already a grid.
+ *
+ * **The travel is written to the row's own style, never rendered.**
+ * One render when the gesture starts, one when it crosses the
+ * threshold, one when it ends — a virtualizer re-rendering every
+ * visible row per frame of one finger's travel is exactly what audit
+ * `perf.m1` is about.
+ *
+ * **The threshold is a fraction of the row**, with a floor. The row is
+ * 424x52 on the reference device, so a threshold in bare pixels is a
+ * fraction of a row height on one screen and a third of the width on
+ * the next.
+ *
+ * **It is not only a colour** (WCAG 1.4.1, the rule the playing-row
+ * marker exists for). The pane carries the queue icon and words, the
+ * words change at the threshold, and the outcome goes to a live
+ * region — one glyph throughout, because a tick is `ICON_IN_LIBRARY`

+/**
+ * The touch gestures, as one document listener (plan 019, #63).
+ *
+ * This replaces `utils/long-press.ts` rather than sitting beside it,
+ * and that is the point: two document listeners both claiming the
+ * 500ms hold is exactly the fault that file's own header warns about.
+ * What it did — one capture listener, the target from
+ * `composedPath()[0]`, the browser's own gesture winning, the trailing
+ * click swallowed — is kept whole. What changes is what the gesture
+ * *means*.
+ *
+ * **A gesture is announced, not acted on.** Two composed, cancelable
+ * events are dispatched on the element the finger actually landed on:
+ *
+ *   `yj-tap`         a short press that did not drift
+ *   `yj-long-press`  a press that held still for LONG_PRESS_MS
+ *   `yj-swipe-start` a press that has travelled decisively sideways
+ *
+ * A claimed swipe is then followed by `yj-swipe-move` and one
+ * `yj-swipe-end`, which is guaranteed: a swipe that the browser or a
+ * second finger takes away still ends, with `canceled` set, so the
+ * affordance a component put on screen always has something to snap
+ * back from.
+ *
+ * A component that wants the gesture handles it and calls
+ * `preventDefault()`. Nothing else changes. That shape is what lets
+ * this reassign the hold without touching a single one of the fourteen
+ * context menus downstream of it: **an unclaimed `yj-long-press` still
+ * becomes a synthetic `contextmenu`**, so a card grid, an Explore
+ * result or a playlist row behaves exactly as it did, and only the
+ * lists that opt in get selection mode.
+ *
+ * The same rule keeps taps honest. An unclaimed `yj-tap` does nothing
+ * at all and the browser's click follows normally, so every button,
+ * link and checkbox in the app is untouched by this file. Only a
+ * claimed tap has its click swallowed — otherwise playing a track
+ * would also select it.
+ *
+ * Five things are load-bearing.
+ *
+ * **The predicate is the pointer, not the platform** (plan 019,
+ * decision 1). `pointerType === 'touch'`, per event — so an Android
+ * tablet over 600px, a touchscreen laptop with a mouse also plugged
+ * in, and a narrow desktop window are all right for free, and there is
+ * no second declaration of what a phone does. Keyed on a viewport
+ * width, the first of those three gets desktop semantics on a
+ * touchscreen, which is the inversion #63 exists to fix, on the
+ * platform it exists for.
+ *
+ * **There is no double-tap**, and it is not an omission — see plan
+ * 019, decision 2. Measured on the reference device, the play command
+ * to `TrackChanged` is ~100ms; a double-tap discriminator has to hold
+ * every tap for the app's own `DOUBLE_CLICK_GRACE_MS` of 250 before it
+ * can act, which is 3.5x the primary interaction in the app to reach a
+ * menu that long-press already reaches.
+ *
+ * **The target comes from `composedPath()[0]`**, not
+ * `elementFromPoint`, which stops at the outermost shadow host: every
+ * list in this app delegates inside one, so an event dispatched on the
+ * host reaches a delegated listener and no per-row one.
+ *
+ * **A browser that fires its own `contextmenu` is a trigger, not a
+ * competitor**, and that is a change from `long-press.ts` rather than
+ * an inherited rule. It used to stand down when a trusted
+ * `contextmenu` arrived, because both paths ended in the same place: a
+ * context menu. They no longer do — ours may end in selection mode —
+ * so standing down means the gesture silently does the *old* thing.
+ *
+ * Measured on the reference device, which is the only tier that can
+ * see this: Chrome 113's WebView fires its own `contextmenu` on a long
+ * press, so a hold on a track row opened the context menu and
+ * `yj-long-press` was never announced at all. Every test in the
+ * component tier passed, because dispatched pointer events do not make
+ * a browser synthesise one.
+ *
+ * So a trusted `contextmenu` arriving mid-press *becomes* the long
+ * press: `yj-long-press` is announced from it, and only if a component
+ * claims it is the native event suppressed. Unclaimed, it propagates
+ * untouched and opens the menu it always did — which is the same
+ * "browser wins" outcome, now reached by asking rather than assuming.
+ *
+ * Ours and the browser's are still told apart by identity rather than
+ * `isTrusted` — a `WeakSet` of the events this module made — so the
+ * suppressor cannot eat the event it exists to deliver, and a test can
+ * stand in for a browser that fires one.
+ *
+ * **The click swallow is keyed on the gesture**, cleared by the next
+ * `pointerdown` rather than by a time window, so the first tap on a
+ * sheet that just opened is not eaten too.
+ *
+ * ## The swipe runs on touch events, and that is not a style choice
+ *
+ * Everything above is Pointer Events. The swipe is not, and the reason
+ * is measured on the reference device rather than reasoned about:
+ * **Chrome 113's Android WebView cancels the pointer stream ~16px into
+ * any drag, whatever `touch-action` says.** Three values were tried on
+ * a track row, driving a real finger with `adb shell input swipe`:
+ *
+ * ```
+ * touch-action: auto   pointerdown, 1 move,  pointercancel
+ * touch-action: pan-y  pointerdown, 2 moves, pointercancel
+ * touch-action: none   pointerdown, 2 moves, pointercancel
+ * ```
+ *
+ * `touchmove` kept firing throughout all three. So a swipe recognised
+ * from `pointermove` is a swipe that dies 16px in — plan 019 predicted
+ * the class of failure ("works in Chromium and not on the phone") and
+ * named `touch-action: pan-y` as the fix; it is half of it.
+ *
+ * The other half is that **a non-passive `touchmove` that calls
+ * `preventDefault()` is what keeps the gesture ours**. With it, the
+ * same swipe ran to 12 moves and a `pointerup` at full travel.
+ *
+ * Both halves are required, and that was measured too: with the
+ * `preventDefault` in place but `touch-action` back at `auto`, the
+ * gesture died after **one** move. The reading is that `auto` lets the
+ * browser commit to a horizontal pan on the first move past slop —
+ * before any threshold of ours can have been crossed — while `pan-y`
+ * leaves it undecided long enough for the second move to claim it.
+ *
+ * So a surface that wants a horizontal swipe declares
+ * `touch-action: pan-y` (`track-list`'s `.track-row` does) *and* gets
+ * this module's `preventDefault`. Neither alone works on the device,
+ * and **both work in Chromium either way**, which is exactly why this
+ * paragraph exists rather than a test.
+ *
+ * `touch-action: none` is the one value to avoid: it also takes the
+ * list's vertical scrolling away, which was measured as a list that
+ * would not move.
+ *
+ * Two consequences of the touch listener worth knowing.
+ *
+ * **It is non-passive, which costs the compositor's scroll fast path**
+ * for the first touchmoves of every scroll, until the browser starts
+ * scrolling and stops waiting on us. That is the standard price of a
+ * horizontal gesture in a scroller and it is paid once per gesture,
+ * not per frame; a vertical drag on the device still scrolls the
+ * virtualizer 81px on the same measurement that the horizontal one
+ * survives.
+ *
+ * **The tie breaks toward scrolling**, deliberately and in that order:
+ * vertical drift past the tolerance vetoes the swipe outright, and a
+ * gesture that is not *strictly* more horizontal than vertical is the
+ * scroller's. A list that will not scroll is unusable; a swipe that
+ * needs a second try is not.

+/**
+ * Swipe right on a track row to queue it (plan 019 phase 2, #63).
+ *
+ * `touch-gestures.test.ts` holds the recogniser — the axis rule, the
+ * claim, the guaranteed end. What is here is what the *list* does with
+ * it, and the two things that are only true of a list:
+ *
+ * **A swipe is not a selection.** It acts on the row it was made on,
+ * unless that row is one of several the user has explicitly chosen, in
+ * which case it acts on all of them — the same rule the context menu
+ * answers with, because a bar saying "40 selected" and a gesture that
+ * quietly queues one of them is two answers to the same question.
+ *
+ * **A short swipe is a no-op**, and that is the only thing standing
+ * between "add to queue" and a scroll that drifted sideways. The
+ * threshold is a fraction of the row, so it is measured from the row
+ * here rather than written down twice.
+ *
+ * What this tier cannot see is the device, and the reason is in the
+ * module's own header: Chrome 113's WebView cancels the pointer stream
+ * ~16px into any drag whatever `touch-action` says, so the gesture
+ * runs on touch events and needs `touch-action: pan-y` *and* a
+ * non-passive `preventDefault`. Both are correct in Chromium either
+ * way. The stylesheet half is asserted below for the same reason
+ * `hover-affordance.test.ts` reads a parsed stylesheet: the regression
+ * is someone tidying the declaration away, and nothing here renders
+ * differently when they do.
