- Linux app id dev.foxyz.starsync, binary starsync; Windows starsync.exe,
company foxyz; server starsync-server; Dart package starsync; archives
starsync-<ver>-*.
- 1.2.x compatibility: watch_together and watch-together-server
launchers (Linux) / copies (Windows) in the archive; the updater
accepts both names and relaunches the new binary; update.sh/.bat use
whichever server exists.
- First start copies (never moves) the old support folder and this
app's Hive boxes out of ~/Documents into <support>/hive; a marker
makes it run once; AppDirs is a port; settings schema version with
ordered migrations.
- Launcher entry dev.foxyz.starsync.desktop; the old one removed.
- Repository name and URLs unchanged.

- Tests: the four known failures fixed (test-side causes), one duplicate
file and four detail-pinning cases removed, every test that pins
behaviour the restructure changes tagged with its step.
- Every toast, sound and activity-log line goes through Notifier.notify
(AppEvent), mapped one-to-one to today's behaviour.
- Platform ports (shell, URLs, folders, link resolver, system
notifications) with desktop implementations; window_manager, Process
and file_picker now live only in platform/desktop/.
- ROADMAP: protocol 16 planned; app id dev.foxyz.starsync.

Ready gate: whoever is in the server while it is not playing counts (joining
while playing does not pause anyone); a swap counts everyone present and
keeps ready flags; the quorum rule is gone. Optional 'Unready when the
video changes'. No 'Skip 1:30' guess when the media has chapters.
Drag & drop and Ctrl+V anywhere (fox_utils): files, folders and links get a
small card asking how to open them. Files series start collapsed.
UI: Tab never moves focus and Space is always ready outside text fields;
chat focuses its field; unread badge on uosc and a chip in fullscreen;
people-only chat with an Activity toggle; skip pills show 5 s then with
the controls; volume up to 150%; own avatar same size as the party.

- User seeks are intercepted at the player (SyncPlayer), previewed
locally, sent once 300 ms after the drag ends; own echoes are matched
by seekSeq and never re-applied; the landed check can't reapply a
stale target. 1 s position poll removed.
- ping/pong clock offset (min-RTT ClockSync); positions use server time.
- Reports carry duration; buffer gate is min(4 s, remaining - 2 s);
new finished transport instead of a HELD stall at the end.
- cache/readahead 150 s, 256 MiB demuxer cache, pins read back.
- Resumed reports put a stale ready member back in the set; hello.resume
takes over the old member after an unclean drop (no ghost).
- Docs: roadmap rendering findings (HW path works; shaders verified).

- serve(Map config, events) is the one server entrypoint: the app
hosts it via Isolate.spawn (crash surfaced on the Host card, logs
forwarded as [server]); bin/server.dart is the dedicated server,
compiled into the bundle as watch-together-server. --headless gone.
- Host identity via a per-hosting hostKey in hello, replacing the
loopback heuristic.
- Rename room -> server across code, files and wire (t:"state",
/health name); protocol bumped to 5.
- CI compiles the server binary; isolate smoke tests in server and
desktop suites. Docs updated.

- Player + VideoController per session; Reload video (Ctrl+R) and a
frozen-picture watchdog that reloads automatically.
- Shortcuts no longer fire while typing; empty swap disabled;
hwdec setting/env actually applied.
- Idle unready measured from real inactivity; cancellable reconnects
and setup; ready restored from server state; kicked/failed host
stops its server; graceful leave on window close; no URLs with
keys in display names.
- Welcome + connect screens replaced by one Home screen with Join and
Host cards, recent servers, Settings, Integrations and About.
