Each app's settings were inlined in `group-settings.js` — TMDB, MusicBrainz,
and one folder picker per app, each with its own draft state and save handler
saying the same thing about a different key. They are one file per app now,
reached through the `apps.js` registry, and the page that renders them names no
application at all: adding one is a registry entry and a settings file.

The line between the two is what makes that true. What every app has — folders
— the page does generically, through one `saveDirectories` bound to the app.
What one app alone has, its pane does itself with the transport it is handed.
An app that only needs directories touches neither `group-settings.js` nor
`group-page.js`, which is `test_app_settings_plugin.py`'s subject.

`settings-ui.js` exists because a pane importing the page that renders it is a
cycle, and ES modules answer that with a temporal-dead-zone ReferenceError at
first render — a component that silently does not appear, the fault already
recorded in CLAUDE.md about hook ordering.

The flat depth-indented `&lt;select&gt;` of every folder in the library becomes a
modal tree. It asks the node for nothing: the tree is derived from paths the
client already holds, so it shows exactly what the group's index contains and
adds no folder-browsing protocol. For Chat's attachment folder — the one
directory that is written to rather than read — read-only roots are greyed
out, so the node's refusal arrives before the operator picks rather than when
somebody sends a file.

Videos and Music take a list of folders. A library on two drives could not be
described before; the only recourse was pointing the app at a parent containing
both, which pulls in everything else under it. The scalar shapes survive on the
wire alone, for a node speaking MNP 1.0, and the client reads them as a
one-element list.

Two things the tests caught that I would not have:

`test_asset_versioning` — six new modules were missing from `_ASSETS`. Reached
through the registry rather than imported by name, they are exactly the files
nothing else would notice changing, and a stale one is served from cache with
no version bump.

And `node --check foo.js` does **not** reliably report a module syntax error:
it accepted `${/* ... */''}` — htm template syntax pasted into a plain object
literal — and reported success. A `.mjs` copy forces the module parser and
reports it. The suite had no syntax check at all, which is how that reached a
file; `test_spa_syntax.py` does it for every module now, and pins that the
loose path is not what it uses.

Suite: 12 failures, all pre-existing.

messages, live RootSet updates so API always reflects current state, CLI
root subcommand (add/remove/set/list/eject/plug).
Frontend: SharedDirectoriesTable with optimistic toggle switches, eject/plug
in Files and Settings, upload gated on root.writable, ejected-root filtering
in all media apps, updated Create Group wizard, 10-locale i18n.

<title>fix(hub): merge duplicate sources in Search's Music and Photos too</title>

<id>urn:sha1:10f8266e7152d7dc38dbfe2449327829bf020ad1</id>
<content type='text'>
Phases 5-8 of docs/refactoring-search.md, extending the Videos merge
outward. A library shared by two groups now lists each track once inside
an album and each photo once inside a photo album, and a card served by
several groups says "N sources" instead of naming one of them.

Units come from each application's own grouping, never a copy of its
keys. For Music that meant exporting foldKey: groupMusicEntries folds
case to group but keeps the first-seen spelling to display, and which
group is seen first is whichever index arrived first — so keying a unit
on the display strings would let the chosen source change between page
loads.

A group whose connection fails is marked down and stops being chosen, so
a unit fails over to another group that has the file. Eviction is not a
failure. Every source being down still yields an entry: a tile that
fails to load beats a film that vanished from the grid.

sourceLabel now takes the whole unit rather than one entry. A show's
poster entry is picked for its thumbnail, so a show in two groups whose
cover episode sits in only one of them would have claimed a single
source. SourceTag lives in group-name.js — source-merge.js must keep
importing nothing (its test executes it standalone), and a copy in each
of the three apps is three chances to disagree.

test_search_files_unmerged.py holds the one thing that must not change:
the Files explorer is not merged, because there each group is a folder
and merging would remove a file from one of them. It also asserts the
other three lists are merged, or deleting the merge outright would leave
it passing and saying nothing.

One plan item was dropped as wrong rather than built: the Music queue in
onPreview needed no change. It filters by groupId and is reachable only
from FilesPanel, which is not merged.

Search page fetches indexes from all groups, then renders consolidated
entries through the existing FilesPanel, VideoApp, and MusicApp
components — no reimplemented views. Groups appear as top-level
directories in the file browser; video/music entries use a synthetic
root with per-entry transport refs for thumbnails and metadata across
groups. Music player lifted to app.js with getConnection(groupId) for
cross-group playback. Connection pool (max 3, LRU eviction) manages
lazy WebRTC connections. All 10 locales updated with search keys.

<title>fix(music): stop sharing one folder's cover across unrelated tracks, and merge various-artists compilations into one album</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6fb948045b9c563ce591da289cdac1df6bed360c</id>
<content type='text'>
Two real, confirmed bugs in a large flat music library:

- enrich_audio.py's sibling-cover fallback assumed one folder is one
  release. A large flat "chart ranking" folder mixing dozens of unrelated
  artists carried several distinct WMP AlbumArt-cache guids (one per
  original album a track was ripped from), and the fallback picked
  whichever one WMP had copied to Folder.jpg — attaching one unrelated
  release's cover to every other track in the folder. Now refuses to pick
  a cover at all once 2+ distinct guids show up, rather than guess.

- music-app.js's groupMusicEntries grouped by artist first, album second,
  so a various-artists compilation (many genuinely different per-track
  artists, one shared album tag, no album-artist tag at all — a real
  ~20-track soundtrack rip has exactly this shape) could never be
  recognized as one release: every track landed alone in its own artist's
  bucket and got folded into a singleton pile. Now detects an album key
  shared across 2+ distinct artist keys and merges those tracks into one
  compilation card under a "Various" heading instead.

Both verified against real, previously-affected files and live in the
browser: the shared wrong cover is gone, and the compilation renders as
one card with all its tracks in order.

<title>fix(node,hub): key music/media metadata lookups by file_id, not path</title>

IndexEntry.path is the *folder* a file is in (indexer.py's
_virtual_dir docstring: "the directory a file appears in"), not the
file itself. GroupIndex.get_entry_by_path() treated it as if it named
one file, and every one of its four callers did too:
_do_music_meta_request, _do_media_meta_request, _do_tmdb_override, and
_admin_exec_tmdb_override. Any two files sharing a folder — an album is
one folder with many tracks, a season is one folder with many episodes
— collided: a lookup by path silently returned whichever entry the
index happened to iterate to first, regardless of which file the
client actually asked about.

Found live (2026-08-25): three unrelated albums ("High Tone - Various",
two "Le Peuple de l'Herbe" albums) all showed the same MusicBrainz
cover, because all their representative tracks happened to sit in one
"high_tone" folder alongside a track that legitimately matched that
cover. A force-reload didn't help — the bug is server-side, not a
stale client state.

Fixed by keying these four request/response pairs by `file_id` (the
entry's own content hash — already unique, already how every other
lookup in the system identifies a file) instead of `path`, both in the
wire messages (music_meta_req/resp, media_meta_req/resp, tmdb_override)
and in music-app.js/video-app.js's own hooks. GroupIndex.get_entry_by_path
is now unused and removed — GroupIndex.get_entry(file_id) already did
the right thing.

No test previously exercised either handler with two entries sharing a
folder — the only existing coverage (test_tmdb_override_policy.py) gave
each entry its own folder, so the bug never had a chance to show up.
Added that scenario there and in two new test files, all confirmed
failing against the pre-fix code before being confirmed green against
the fix.

Five related pieces of polish against the Music app and Settings, all
from the same conversation:

- Music app now requires audio_root, same as Videos requires video_root:
  an empty-state message until one is set, and grouping filtered to only
  what's under it (underAudioRoot, mirroring video-app.js's
  underVideoRoot). Wires the new audio_root/audio_root_ack pair through
  transport.js and group-page.js state the same way video_root already
  flows.
- Starting one player now stops the other — opening a film closes the
  music queue, starting a track closes the video modal. Both used to run
  at once, found live.
- Group Settings reworked: every section but a bare form (invite,
  pair-operator, approve-device) is now collapsible (CollapsibleSection);
  the uploads on/off button is a real toggle switch (ToggleSwitch,
  reused for TMDB/MusicBrainz's enabled switches too, each now with an
  icon + status badge in its header instead of a plain checkbox row);
  and shared directories, the Videos root picker, and the new Music root
  picker are merged into one "Directories" section (RootFolderRow) instead
  of three separate ones scattered down the page — the root pickers only
  show once their app is actually enabled.

<title>fix(hub): give the Music flat list its own look instead of Videos' reskin</title>

<content type='text'>
Two complaints against real use: the artist -&gt; album -&gt; track hierarchy
was invisible (every depth sat flush left, distinguishable only by which
chevron happened to be open — Videos' own flat list never needed more
than one level, so there was nothing to reuse for this), and a filled-in
album unfolded into a wall of identical little icon-box squares, one per
track, carrying no information a track row can actually use (unlike
Videos' per-episode thumbnail).

Track rows now reuse Mode A's own numbered tracklist style
(.music-track-row: number, title, duration, no icon box) instead of
Videos' boxy thumb-slot row. A folder's expanded contents get wrapped in a
new .music-flat-children indent + rule line, so nesting reads as visible
steps into the tree rather than same-level siblings. Folder rows
(artist/album headers) still reuse Videos' flat-row style, which fits them
fine — this is not a wholesale rewrite, only what didn't actually work.

<title>feat(hub): consolidate loose tracks, "&amp;"/"and" fold, player close/queue</title>

<content type='text'>
Album-grid readability, part two:

- groupMusicEntries (music-app.js): an album bucket left with exactly
  one track - a real album tag, but only one song from it, not the
  whole release - clutters the grid the same way an untagged loose
  track does. Both kinds now fold into one "&lt;artist&gt; - Various" tile
  per artist, unless there is only one leftover track overall, where
  relabeling buys nothing and the track keeps its own name (or the
  generic placeholder, if it never had one).
- foldKey also normalizes "&amp;" vs "and" ("Artist &amp; The Band" / "Artist
  and The Band" is one act, tagged both ways across different rips of
  the same catalogue) alongside the existing case/whitespace fold.
- music-player.js: a close button pauses and tears the player down;
  an unmount cleanup effect (pause, revoke every cached blob URL)
  fires either way, whether that's the close button or the shell
  tearing the bar down on its own. A "current queue" button opens an
  overlay listing the whole playing queue with the current track
  highlighted, click any to jump to it - works identically regardless
  of how the queue was built (an album, the consolidated misc bucket,
  a single standalone track), since it only ever reads the player's
  own live tracks/order/pos.
- group-page.js: this component is not remounted when switching to a
  *different* group on the same /group/:id route (only the groupId
  prop changes) - so without an explicit reset, music from one group
  would carry into the next one opened. Resets musicQueue to null on
  groupId change; a tab switch inside one group still leaves it alone.
- Scrubbed real artist/band names that had leaked into code comments
  and test fixtures (enrich_audio.py's docstrings, several
  test_enrich_audio.py assertions, a music-app.js comment) - replaced
  with generic placeholders, no behavioural change.
- i18n: music.various, music.player_close, music.player_queue,
  music.queue_title added across all ten locales.

Client-side only except none of this touches the node at all. npm run
sync-ui re-run. Full suite: 1129 passed, no regressions.

<content type='text'>
The monochrome disc icon from the previous commit read as placeholder
UI chrome, not as artwork - too plain for something that is, for most
tiles in a real library, the default look of the grid.

- DiscPlaceholder (music-app.js): a small inline SVG illustration -
  dark disc base, an iridescent radial-gradient sheen mimicking the
  rainbow reflection a real CD's data side has, two faint groove
  rings, a light label ring, a dark spindle hole. Each instance gets
  its own gradient id (a module-level counter) rather than one literal
  id repeated - a grid renders many of these at once, and a shared id
  would leave every disc after the first pointing at whichever
  &lt;radialGradient&gt; the browser happened to resolve.
- AlbumCard and MusicDetailModal now branch on coverHash directly:
  MediaThumb (the real chunk-path image) when there is one,
  DiscPlaceholder when there isn't - rather than routing "no cover"
  through MediaThumb's own generic small-icon fallback, which is still
  right for its other callers (list rows, Videos).
- icon.js: the flat monochrome "disc" icon this replaces is removed -
  nothing else used it.
- style.css: .music-disc-empty/.music-disc-svg replace the old
  .video-thumb-empty overrides; still sized relative to the tile (82%)
  so it scales with .music-grid's auto-fill columns.

Client-side only. npm run sync-ui re-run. Full suite: 1129 passed, no
regressions.
