A spec was a promise; sixteen of them had become descriptions of code that
already shipped, sitting beside four that describe work still outstanding, with
nothing in the file telling the two apart. Half the statuses were also wrong —
audio-equalizer read "Accepted" with the EQ live on both platforms, the native
video spec said the flag stays off after the default was flipped on.
The shipped designs move into docs/architecture, which is the maintained
description of the build, and the spec files go. Git history keeps the
originals; what a future change still needs is carried across:
- 01-rust-backend: favourites rewritten (the old section named a file that no
longer exists and called shipped buttons "planned"), domain vocabulary owned
by Rust (SearchScope, exclusions, the bitrate ladder), background workers
- 02-svelte-frontend: app shell and chrome, library mosaic, series/episode
navigation, downloaded browse, safe-area insets, native-video store, logging
- 03-data-flow: locally-indexed search
- 05-platform-backends: audio settings on ExoPlayer, the equalizer's band
vocabulary, native video compositing, the background-audio handoff
- 06-downloads-and-offline: one storage model, offline catalog visibility
- 09-security: path confinement and input binding
docs/specs/README.md now says what the directory is for and where each shipped
design went. Deferred work the specs recorded is kept beside the code it
concerns rather than lost: season-bounded autoplay, the two dead search
commands, why indexing is a full crawl.
requirements.md had fourteen stale statuses — Android audio parity still read
"Linux only", DR-150 still said the native-video default was off, DR-190 was
Proposed after DR-196 implemented it, and five tooling requirements were
Proposed after landing. Three unbuilt specs suggested requirement ids that have
since been allocated to other work; each now carries a warning.
check:boundary passed on the very leak it was written for. The pattern was
anchored to `includeItemTypes:` at the query site, so searchScope.ts
assigning the same array to a named const and dereferencing it one
indirection away was invisible — through every green CI run.
The check now matches an array literal naming two or more Jellyfin item
types anywhere in src/, catching a const, a Record value, a function
return, and an inline query alike. Deliberate limits kept: two adjacent
literals required (single-type presentation stays legal), string literals
required (item.type === "Audio" is display logic), explicit type list
(so ["High","Low"] produces no noise).
Verified all five cases: reintroducing the original SCOPE_ITEM_TYPES
fails; a new const ["Movie","Series"] fails; the same array in a
.test.ts passes; itemType: "Movie" / item.type === / ["High","Low"] pass;
a 5th allowlist entry fails on the new cap.
Allowlist 1→3 entries, capped at 4 so the next exception forces a
conversation rather than a one-line append:
- GenericMediaListPage: grid styling over a self-declared itemType —
presentation, changes only with a UI redesign.
- DownloadedBrowse: borderline, leans domain (the container set grows
when Jellyfin adds a container type). Allowlisted with a TODO for a
backend MediaItem.isContainer flag.
The header now names what the check still cannot see — run-time-built
sets, types split across variables, switch/|| taxonomy — and CLAUDE.md
states that a green check:boundary is not proof. That matters given this
check passed on its own founding violation for months.
Also: both gates wired into test-all.sh, which called `bun run test`
without --run and would have hung in watch mode. Corrected the Dockerfile
comment describing the Windows toolchain as mingw/GNU — it is MSVC via
cargo-xwin (GNU cannot bundle NSIS from Linux).
Grep-based tripwire flagging multi-type includeItemTypes literals in the
Svelte frontend — the machine-detectable signature of the item-type
taxonomy leaking into presentation. Wire it into the Gitea build-and-test
workflow and a check:boundary package script. Motivated by
docs/specs/scoped-search-boundary.md.
