The recollection that this used to exist is false — `git log --all -S
mpris` finds nothing on any branch. What has always been there is the
desktop *notification* on a track change, which is D-Bus but not MPRIS: a
popup is neither a status-bar entry nor a key target. So this is new, not
a regression.
Everything the protocol needs was already on the wire, so cbd-tui gains a
second front-end onto the two channels it already has: stream updates in,
MessageFromUi out. The MPRIS player is a peer of the UI thread — it
commands the server through the very channel the keybindings use, and it
learns the result the way the UI learns about a keypress from another
client. No proto change, no server change.
The decisions worth knowing (architecture/mpris.md):
- An absolute protocol over a toggling server. Play/Pause/SetShuffle/
SetLoopStatus consult the last state the server broadcast and send
nothing when it already matches, or the pause key would start playback
on a paused player. Volume is the same idea with arithmetic; muting is
spelled "volume 0", and the setter mutes on a zero target so the level
survives to be unmuted to.
- No URL reaches the bus. xesam:url would have to be the stream URL,
which clients never see and which several providers sign with
credentials, and every peer on a session bus can read properties. The
trackid is the queue position — also the only spelling that is a valid
object path.
- mpris:length is omitted when unknown rather than sent as zero, which
would make consumers draw a full progress bar.
- Unrepresentable requests are refused, not approximated: repeat-one,
rates other than 1.0, OpenUri, Raise, and Quit — a status-bar button
has no business closing someone's terminal.
- No session bus is a normal way to run (ssh, a tty, a container): the
connection carries a timeout and its failure is an info log, after
which the client behaves exactly as before.
Behind the `mpris` feature, on by default beside `notifications` and
forwarded by `cbd`; the nix package names it in headlessFeatures, since
naming a feature set at all replaces the crate defaults. It costs one
crate and no system library — zbus speaks D-Bus in pure Rust and
notify-rust had already brought it in.
Verified with the real thing, not only a test double: under
dbus-run-session, playerctl lists the player, reads its metadata
("Playing: the artist - the song (4:00)"), and drives play-pause,
`position 30+` and `volume 0.8` into the right commands. It also refuses
`next` when the queue is empty, which is CanGoNext being honest. The
committed bus test covers the round trip and skips where there is no bus.
`opus` conflated two axes: decoding Ogg-Opus, and vendoring the C library
to do it. So the only way to avoid a cmake build of libopus was to give up
Opus playback -- the wrong trade for Nix, which already ships one.
The adapter crate draws the line already: symphonia-adapter-libopus own
`bundled` feature is what pulls opusic-sys/bundled and with it cmake. So
declare the dependency `default-features = false` and add
`opus-bundled = ["symphonia-adapter-libopus?/bundled"]`, forwarded up
through crabidy-server and cbd. It stays in every `default`, so a plain
cargo build still needs nothing installed; opting out is the packager act.
The weak `?/` is load-bearing -- a plain `/bundled` would enable the
optional dependency itself, and `opus-bundled` would quietly become a
second "do we decode Opus" flag.
The flake native build then drops cmake and takes libopus from nixpkgs;
`headlessFeatures` already omitted opus-bundled, so it opts out for free.
The cross build keeps the vendored copy: it links statically, and an
unbundled -lopus would need a static aarch64 libopus staged for the target
the way alsa-lib is.
That exposed an older bug. rustc stamps no RUNPATH, and the -L from
buildInputs arrives through NIX_LDFLAGS, which ld-wrapper does not mirror
into the binary -- so the package linked cleanly and then refused to start.
RUNPATH was empty, meaning libasound.so.2 had never resolved either: the
package always depended on the caller having it on LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which
this repo dev shell happens to set. autoPatchelfHook now fills the RUNPATH
from buildInputs (plus stdenv.cc.cc for libgcc_s, the compiler own
unwinding runtime, which no crate declares) and fails the build on anything
it cannot resolve. Verified by running each binary under `env -i`, and with
LD_BIND_NOW=1 so every opus symbol binds eagerly.
Also: devenv sets OPUS_LIB_DIR, without which the unbundled build dies as
"mold: fatal: library not found: opus"; check-features *builds* the two
libopus variants rather than clippy-ing them, since clippy links nothing and
cannot tell a resolvable -lopus from a missing one; and cbd was missing an
`rss` pass-through, so the bundle could not select that provider alone.
Requested alongside this: the spectrum shadows fall over 10 seconds instead
of 4. The config default and SpectrumStyle::default are two spellings of
one thing, so the config test now asserts the whole resolved style equals
SpectrumStyle::default() rather than field-by-field.

A new rssdy crate mounted at /rss. Subscriptions are (name, url) pairs in
rss.toml; `%` on /rss takes a pasted feed URL, fetches it once, names the
subscription from the feed's own title and persists it, `e` renames, `d`
unsubscribes without touching captured audio. Feeds are read as RSS
2.0/1.0/0.x, Atom or JSON Feed through feed-rs.
**A premium feed URL is the credential.** Library paths are displayed,
logged, and persisted into saved queues and bookmark tomls, so a URL in one
leaks into all of them. Paths therefore carry a slug of the subscription name
plus blake3(guid)[..16] — /rss/the-economist-podcasts/676f8bfa48c9cac3 — and
URLs are redacted from every Debug impl and kept out of errors (reqwest goes
through without_url).
**Nothing is cached, at either end.** A listing always fetches. The half that
is easy to miss is client-side: both clients cache listings by path and only
/crabidy, /fs and /orphans bypassed it, so /rss joins MUTABLE_ROOTS in both —
otherwise a re-visit answers from the client and the server's freshness is
invisible. One memo, written by listings and read only when resolving a track
(bounded to 8 feeds), keeps queueing 40 episodes at one fetch instead of 41
without a TTL to guess at.
Verifying against the user's real Economist feed caught a bug no unit test
would have: feed-rs parses <itunes:duration> as NPT, which has no MM:SS form,
so "53:25" fell through to its leading-number regex and a 53-minute episode
reported 53 *seconds* ("1:20:40" happens to parse fine). That field is now
recovered from the raw body — a shallow scan keyed by guid and enclosure URL —
and the live feed reports 3205/2830/1662 s, matching 53:25/47:10/27:42.
Bounded by design: per-request timeout, an 8 MiB body cap enforced while
reading chunks rather than after the fact, an episode cap, newest-first
enforced at the provider boundary so any backend obeys it. A malformed entry
is skipped; only an unfetchable feed errors, and it fails that node alone.
Behind a default-on `rss` cargo feature like every other provider, with a row
in check-features. Documented in docs/src/providers/rss.md and
rssdy/README.md, both stating plainly that the URL is a credential, that
listings are never cached, and that bookmarks depend on publisher guids —
capture what you want to keep.

All on by default, so a plain build is unchanged (verified: the default
dependency set for crabidy-server is byte-identical to before). Tailor a
smaller binary with --no-default-features --features …
(architecture/build-features.md).
Compile-time features draw dependency boundaries; the existing
crabidy-server.toml providers list keeps doing per-mount runtime
toggling. The compile-time set bounds the runtime one: a provider built
out cannot be enabled from the config, and naming it earns one startup
warning rather than silence.
- crabidy-server: tidal · youtube · fyyd · abs · soundcloud · jamendo ·
fs · opus · spectrum · web-ui, plus the all-providers group.
- fs is local files *and* persistent state (D5): the /fs mount, the
content store behind /crabidy and /orphans, bookmarks/captures, queue
persistence, and scan. Without it Capture/SaveQueue answer
Unimplemented and scan says which feature is missing — never a panic.
- opus drops symphonia + symphonia-adapter-libopus, and with them the
bundled libopus C build (no more cmake requirement). It also decides
whether scan indexes .opus at all, so scan never indexes what this
build cannot play. An Ogg-Opus file in an opus-less build reports the
missing feature and is skipped like any undecodable file.
- spectrum drops realfft and the FFT task; clients just never receive a
frame. cbd-tui gains notifications (notify-rust, a D-Bus stack).
- crabidy-server/cbd features print the compiled set, and startup logs
it, so a tailored binary is self-describing.
Not gated, deliberately: [auth]/argon2 (a build ignoring configured
hashes would run open — fail-open security hole), and hls.rs /
spectrum_tap.rs / windowed_http.rs (no dependency of their own, so
gating them buys cfg noise and nothing else).
devenv gains check-features: the curated matrix (defaults, nothing, each
provider alone, each axis dropped, both worked examples, the client
crates) all clippy-clean under -D warnings.

Adding ninja alongside cmake let the cmake crate auto-select the Ninja
generator whenever ninja happened to be on PATH. A build dir first cached under
Make (ninja absent) then rebuilt with ninja present fails with "Does not match
the generator used previously: Unix Makefiles". gnumake is already provided by
stdenv, so keeping only cmake pins the generator to Make everywhere.

rodio decodes through symphonia 0.5, which ships no Opus decoder, so raw
.opus sources (audiobookshelf files, and opus from any provider) failed
Decoder::build(). Add OpusSource, a rodio Source that demuxes Ogg with
symphonia own Ogg reader and decodes with libopus (via
symphonia-adapter-libopus, registered into an explicit codec registry), and
route to it by content-sniffing OggS+OpusHead in the player -- the abs stream
URL has no file extension, so the extension hint is not enough. The bundled
libopus builds with cmake/ninja (added to devenv).
Verified end-to-end with ffmpeg mono/stereo opus fixtures including seeking;
11 audio-player tests pass, clippy/fmt clean.

Every binary is now a clap-derive CLI; no subcommand keeps the current
default (run server / TUI / both).
- cbd-cli: run_remote executes library/queue/global against a running
server (mirrors RpcClient; direct Stop; connect+request timeouts;
concise errors; human-readable listings).
- crabidy-server: guard (hash + write [auth], stdin fallback, --no-config),
scan (walk + write .cbd-track.toml; --capture/--move via new
CrabidyStore::ingest_file), ServerSettings::store; replaces hash-password.
- cbd-tui: auth writes the client config; config load+override keeps the
first-run-defaults / flag-overrides-file behavior.
- cbd: union of server + client subcommands.
- build.rs in each binary generates shell completions + man pages
(OUT_DIR, and CBD_ASSET_DIR when set); devenv gen-cli-assets → dist/.
- README CLI section; tests for parse, config writers, scan/ingest, guard.
Deviations (plan/summary.md): ClapSerde kept; connection flags top-level
(not clap-global, to avoid colliding with auth --address); Box<dyn Error>
CLI reports per existing convention.

crabidy-server now serves a browser client with the same functionality
as the TUI at its own address, behind the default-on web-ui feature.
The new cbd-web crate is a client-side Leptos/WASM app talking gRPC-web
(tonic-web-wasm-client) over the same crabidy-core client and proto the
TUI uses, so parity is structural: library browsing, search terms,
marks, bookmarks/captures with live progress and confirmed deletion,
the full queue and playback controls, and the update stream with
reconnect. Keys mirror the TUI; every key also has a clickable control.
Styling is hand-written modern CSS with a single crab orange-red accent
and light/dark themes.
The server wraps its existing gRPC service in tonic-web and composes one
axum router (auth layer -> grpc-web -> service, web bundle as fallback);
axum::serve replaces tonic transport, and native gRPC (h2c) still works.
The bundle is embedded via include_dir behind a build.rs that falls back
to a placeholder so a plain cargo build needs no wasm toolchain. To make
crabidy-core build for wasm, tonic is codegen-only there (transport
generation disabled) and native config loading is target-gated.
devenv gains the wasm toolchain and build-web/serve-web scripts.

YouTube caps tokenless stream URLs at exactly their leading 1 MiB:
plain, open-ended, and oversized requests get 403, and fresh URLs
refuse offset starts, so playback died mid-first-minute. PO tokens
would lift the cap but the token-capable Innertube clients need
signature deciphering that is broken in rustypipe upstream (botguard
was built and tested — ineffective through the iOS client).
The player now streams every http(s) source through a windowed
SourceStream (bounded ~1 MiB ranges, 200-body fallback, eager
seek/reconnect so rejected windows fail typed instead of retrying
forever) and the capture downloader windows the same way. Stream URLs
come from a minimal yt-dlp sidecar again — metadata stays on the
pure-Rust rustypipe extractor — whose cipher-solved URLs stream whole
files at a throttled ~32 KB/s; a missing binary degrades to 1 MiB
streams with a warning. botguard_bin is wired through so streams flip
back to pure Rust when upstream deciphering recovers. Live-verified on
the exact track from the failure log.

Playback of YouTube tracks was broken: bestaudio selects WebM/Opus and
the rodio+symphonia player has no Opus decoder. The new extractor picks
the highest-bitrate audio/mp4 (AAC) stream instead, which decodes —
and captures get playable .m4a files. rusty_ytdl, rustube, and
rust-yt-downloader were evaluated live and rejected (broken or stale);
rustypipe works end to end and is actively maintained. Provider logic
now tests against a fake Extract seam, login keeps the cookies.txt
setting with rustypipe caching the rotated cookie, saved playlists
replace the unvalidated feed scrape, and yt-dlp leaves devenv.

The new ytdy crate mounts /youtube: login-free search terms exactly
like tidal's (creatable, renamable, deletable, results as queueable
downloadable tracks) and, when a cookies file is configured, the
user's playlists. All extraction runs through one bounded subprocess
seam (argv-only, per-call timeout, stdout cap, typed errors) so tests
drive the provider with a fake script. yt-dlp is declared in devenv;
a failed binary probe disables the provider, never the server.

Records the current design in architecture/overview.md: crate topology,
the three concurrency domains and the channels between them, the
filesystem-like path addressing scheme, the span-carrying message
envelope used for tracing, and the Tidal device-flow auth.
Captures the trade-offs behind the load-bearing choices (paths vs opaque
ids, blocking engine thread, lossy broadcast) and the known gaps, so
later changes can see what was traded away.
Adds d2 to devenv for rendering the embedded diagrams.
