docs: cite MESHBAY_DESIGN.md and a section instead of the merged notes

2026-09-19T00:12:47Z

The per-feature design notes were merged into docs/MESHBAY_DESIGN.md and deleted from the tree on 2026-09-11, but ~230 comments across the three packages still named them — usually written `docs/musicbay.md §3.2`, as though the file were still in docs/. A reader had to know §16 existed to resolve any of them. They now name the section directly. Every mapping comes from §16, the concordance, which already records where each old section landed: musicbay -> §9.8, mediacenter -> §9.7 for the Videos app and §6.5 where the subject is derived data, photos -> §9.9, auth-confirm -> §3.6, refactoring-search -> §9.11, invite-pairing-v1 -> §3.4, per-node-identity-v1 -> §3.2, captcha -> §7.7, chat-sender-keys -> §4.5, apps/refactor-groups -> §9.1–§9.4, desktop-client-v1 per section. Bare citations of the same documents (`draft-v6 §2.11`, `§4.8`, `§3.4`) are retargeted too: those collide with real section numbers in the design document, so leaving them would have been worse than the named form. Four cases the concordance does not cover, each decided rather than guessed: Sub-item references into documents that no longer exist — mediacenter's `§3.3 row 4`, `§3.4b/c`, `apps.md §3b` — name rows and sub-items §9.7 and §9.2 do not reproduce. The module-level citation stays; the sub-item pointer is dropped. The V-findings keep their labels but lose the dead `§10.1/` prefix. §13.8 lists V1–V13 as per-application open items, which is not what the labels mean in these comments, so pointing them at §13.8 would have been a false citation. `apps.md §5`'s virtualization requirement has no counterpart anywhere in the design document. The requirement is stated in the comment itself, so the citation is dropped rather than aimed at a section that does not say it. Comments that attributed a *sentence* to an old note — musicbay's "several thousand files" example, its "what got measured" note, its measured ~11%/~26% cover-art figures, the "original no root, whole shared tree" call — state the fact without attribution now. §9.8 does not contain those sentences and citing it for them would have been wrong. CLAUDE.md's "a reference to a document that no longer exists" row now says the concordance is for git history and out-of-tree material; the code cites sections directly. Verified: 2851 passed, 4 skipped. The 12 errors in the run are the Firefox leg of test_sticky_header.py's browser harness, which is broken at the browser level on this machine — headless Firefox (snap) dies with `[GFX1-]: RenderCompositorSWGL failed mapping default framebuffer`, renders nothing, and the probe exits `{"error": "no measurement"}` after its full 90s wait. Chrome runs the same 12 assertions in 3.2s and passes. Nothing here can affect it: every changed line in style.css is inside a comment. Also checked: ast.parse on every changed .py, `node --check` on every changed .js, the /* */ balance in style.css, and that no changed line exceeds the width its file already used.

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

2026-09-02T14:21:48Z

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.
