- Status: computed from connection, presence, hold, relay, player facts;
no setters (health writes and HealthStatus gone); pill, strip and
source line read it; transitions go to the Notifier.
- Notifier: noticeFor(event, context) with self presence, alone, window
activity, playing and prefs; toasts for joins/leaves/returns/swaps/
Up next adds (with picture)/problems/chat, the rest logged; while
sitting out only chat, nudges, starting, Up next (+ joins if chosen);
alone no social notices; replayed lines logged; owns its toast timer.
- System notifications (flutter_local_notifications: D-Bus on Linux,
WinRT on Windows) when the window isn't focused; a click focuses it.
- Toasts sit above the control bar and move with it.
- Versions: each member's in the members card and avatar tooltip,
the server's in the card header; the strip no longer shows it.

Server and core: version ranges on both sides with a coded refusal; a
client id maps to the same member and token for the server's life; a
drop is `gone` for a 10-minute grace keeping ready, presence, queue
items, relay and avatar; `bye` leaves at once; ordered takeover (seq,
replaced/stale); presence joining/in/away/gone with one PresencePolicy;
joiners never pause playback and hold a held gate at most ~15 s;
state.hold; feed ids, seq and replay; the relay lives through its
source's grace and continues on re-dial; queue `by` lasting, auto
items and cancel; MediaRef carried; client ids never logged.
App: persisted client id and seq; Connection with unstable/lost/
replaced states, backoff with jitter, no lost/back pair per flap; a drop
keeps the session (state, player, media, relay source); presence in the
strip and members card; sit out = away intent; feed matched by id;
auto sit-out (idle when not playing, minimised for a while; never when
alone) replaces auto-unready; bye on close and Leave, not on update
restart; relay source re-dials through its grace.

- 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.

- notice_table_test: one row per AppEvent variant through noticeFor.
- FlakyProxy (core/testing.dart): pass, blackhole (half-open), delay,
hold, cut after N bytes, reset; demo tests against today's server.
- Liveness (stale/drop/ping) on the engine clock, so grace can be tested
with a fake clock; Connection takes an injectable clock.
- AppDirs with STARSYNC_PROFILE=<name>: separate data and logs, so two
instances run on one machine.
- DEVELOPMENT: scenario list per restructure step; test tags follow the
new step order.

- 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.

- Close: hide the window, dispose every player, thumbnail job and the
sound engine, leave, then close normally; Linux runner _exit (the
NVIDIA EGL exit handler crashed 10/10 closes, 0/41 now); Windows tears
down inside the message loop, then TerminateProcess; watchdogs.
- Version under the Settings tab; an update band instead of a dot,
never over a video; checks at start and every 4 hours.
- Chat pop-ups default to All again.
- Shader read-back compared as a list (old mpv joins with ','), so
Windows stops turning shaders off; Windows hwdec auto-copy.
- Render diagnostics (`mpv: render` lines); RAM-only demuxer cache pin
silences the file-cache warning; a volume readout test.

SoundEngine (platform/audio) opens the device once (2 s after start,
or on the first sound), loads each synthesized sound into memory (no
temp files), plays overlapping voices and is disposed on window close,
before leaving the server. The SfxService interface and its callers
are unchanged; loudness matches the old mpv path (v^6). WAV only, so
no codec libraries are bundled and no build packages are needed.

Logs: one redaction pass (query strings to names, member tokens,
passwords, cookies, auth headers) for every line; daily files with size
and age caps in the app (hosted server included) and the dedicated
server (--log-dir); swaps, relay channels, per-member /r /m /j outcomes,
server fetches, mpv load errors, yt-dlp runs. Settings > About: Copy
diagnostics, Open logs folder.
Bilibili through someone else: the viewer opened /r/ before the source
dialled in; the server holds that request and mpv gives up after 5 s
("could not be opened"). Viewers now open a member relay once it is
live, the putter starts its source before its own player, and track
sizes are read in parallel.

Saved on resize, move, maximize and close; on start (and hot restart)
the normal size and maximized state come back everywhere, the position
on Windows and X11 when it still lands on a display (Wayland places
windows itself).

The server's version is stamped like the app's (APP_VERSION) when packaged,
so it can compare against the manifest; --upgrade swaps the whole install
folder (app and server) and asks for a restart. update.sh/.bat no longer
need GTK.

yt-dlp: a managed, checksum-verified, daily-updated yt-dlp in the app and
the dedicated server (--[no-]yt-dlp, --yt-dlp-dir). Pasted links are
probed: direct files stay links, pages are resolved for title, uploader,
duration and thumbnail. Everyone fetches it: mpv's ytdl hook on the
managed copy. I pass it on / the server fetches it: the best single-file
format, re-resolved once when its URL expires. Relay names never split
the /r/ path; viewers of server-fetched pages wait for the relay to go
live. No wire change.
Icon: two stars orbiting a play button (assets/icon/icon.svg, PNGs, the
Windows .ico). GTK app id moe.senkochan.watch_together; release builds
install their .desktop file and icons into ~/.local/share so Wayland
shows the icon; the window icon is set for X11. README shows the icon.

- 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.

Updater: watch-together --upgrade checks updates/manifest.json,
downloads the tarball, verifies sha256, applies over the live
install (extract-temp + delete-first move-over; rename-safe on
Linux while running). Zero Flutter imports, 7 tests incl.
stub-server flows. Version stamped via --dart-define=APP_VERSION
in package script. Warns (never silently jumps) on proto mismatch.
Roadmap: phases retired as tracker (history in git log), now flat
Built/Backlog/Epics/Deferred; Jellyfin next feature, transcode
never; updater expansion stays an epic. Endpoint publishing
(manifest + release tarball) is user-owned.
