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.

What lives here
Only work that has not shipped. Once a spec is fully implemented its design is folded into the architecture docs — which are the maintained description of the build — and the spec file is deleted. Git history keeps the original, including its rejected alternatives and acceptance criteria; the architecture docs keep the reasoning that a future change still needs.
So: a file in this directory is a promise, not a description. If you want to know how something works, read docs/architecture/. If you want to know what is planned, read here.
Status vocabulary
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Proposed | Written, not accepted. Nothing built. |
| Accepted | Agreed as the design; implementation not started or not finished. |
| Partially implemented | Some parts shipped; the spec names what is left. |
| Design authority | No code of its own — it records a decision later specs act on. |
Next free requirement ids (always re-check requirements.md before allocating): UR-077, IR-033, DR-215. Three specs below suggested ids that have since been taken by other work; each carries a ⚠️ note at the top.
Partially implemented
| Spec | What landed | What is left |
|---|---|---|
| frontend-domain-model.md | Catalog surface: MediaKind, from_jellyfin isolated, ticks → ms |
primaryImageTag → imageId (~30 sites); player/session/reporting tick math; stream.type |
| libmpv2-migration.md | LICENSE |
The libmpv → libmpv2 crate swap |
| read-through-media-cache.md | DR-126…128, DR-133…138 — cache entries are download rows; local playback of downloads | DR-121/122/124/125 — the player quality selector and the read-through capture |
| scoped-search-boundary-implementation.md | Stage 1: SearchScope owned by Rust (DR-063…067) |
Stage 2: result-side grouping (GROUP_ITEM_TYPES still in searchScope.ts) |
Not started
| Spec | Blocked on / note |
|---|---|
| build-provenance.md | build.rs is still bare. ⚠️ suggested id DR-093 is taken. |
| player-facade-enforcement.md | ~60 commands.player* sites still outside the facade; no lint rule. ⚠️ suggested id DR-095 is taken. |
| windows-native-audio-backend.md | Blocked on the libmpv2 swap. ⚠️ suggested id IR-030 is taken. |
Design authority
| Spec | Role |
|---|---|
| playback-backend-unification.md | Why video cannot unify onto one native engine and audio can. The audio half has since shipped on Android; Windows has not. |
| scoped-search-boundary.md | The boundary design the check:boundary rule came from. Stage 1 built. |
| scoped-search.md | Superseded in part — its "frontend only, no Rust changes" decision is the leak the boundary spec reversed. UX still current. |
