- What's next is the server's: state.advance counts down (10 s) when the
media finishes with an Up next item first, holds while its performer or
warm source is gone, and sets queuePlay at its end; cancel is shared, a
seek or swap ends it; the server skips items nobody can put up. Shared
rules in core whats_next.dart; the app's janitor, per-screen countdown
and end-of-episode card are gone.
- The continuation (next Jellyfin episode, next file of a local show
with its gaps) is an auto item under "Continues with", prepared like
Up next's first item.
- Watch tracking by time In (D3): only time played while this viewer is
in counts; away, paused, held, jumps and stalls never do (P7, P9).
WatchTracker + device WatchHistory (files, links); Jellyfin progress
reads the same watch; records are the AniList seam.
- A server restart no longer loses what played: apps hold their media
and one offers it back (swap.restore, first offer wins), Up next is
re-added, the source re-feeds, and the watch carries on.

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.

Connection owns the socket lifecycle, connect/dial with epochs,
reconnect, the clock offset, diagnostics upload and a sealed ConnState
signal; the hello is built by an injectable builder, the resume token
stays private, and the reconnect delay and silence limit are parameters.
The coordinator maps ConnState to the same health texts and keeps the
reconnect restore and drop handling (step 1 replaces them).

Up next: a server-side queue anyone edits by item id (add at end or
next, move, remove, play now, skip); each item says who added it and
how it plays. At the real end the first item swaps in after the end
card's countdown, put up by whoever can (its adder for through-me links
and files, someone with access for Jellyfin, else anyone); items that
can't play are skipped with the reason. The next item's link is
resolved ahead. Greyed "Continues with" episodes below. A chip with the
controls opens it as a popover (leaf_widgets, local path dependency for
now); "Add to queue" next to Put it up everywhere.
Delivery: the server measures the source's rate, the media's bitrate
and each member's read rate; the members card shows a source line
(who passes it on, through what, keeping up or not, source left) and
each member's route and buffer. A slow source is told once per media.
A failed server fetch is announced to everyone.

report.error / state.members[].error (optional, no protocol bump): an
errored member is out of the ready gate until its player opens the media
or the media changes; others see "Bob can't play this: ..." and a mark
on the avatar; your own pill offers Retry (reload).

Anyone can sit anyone out (host included); only you bring yourself back.
Out members stay in chat and the party, never block or count, and load no
media; a card with the live position and Join back (Space) replaces the
video. The mini player's x sits you out; optionally idle does too. Nudge:
the server forwards it to the target only (3/s, 20/min per sender); the
target hears the nudge sound, gets a toast and a taskbar attention
request. Kick, its messages, errors and dialog are gone.

The swapper sends the media's poster and banner once (`art`, Jellyfin
images or AniList by parsed name); state carries their hashes and every
member fetches them from /i/ like avatars. state.media.swapBy names who
put the media up. uosc and the standard bar show cover, title and
episode; a banner card shows before playback starts. The top-left health
pill and the waiting pill become one frosted status pill in plain words.

The shell (lib/src/shell/) replaces the Home and session screens:
- Party strip: profile, Library / Schedule / Settings tabs, Join and
Host cards (hosting no longer takes media), status-ring avatar stack
with the member list, chat & activity panel, Leave.
- The real session player is mounted once and shown full, as a
draggable corner-snapping mini player, or fullscreen (window_manager,
party and toasts overlaid); the Video is never mounted twice.
- Profile popover with inline rename, colour and a crop picker (256 px
PNG), pushed live to the session; avatar toasts; waiting pill.
- Motion kit (fastEaseInToSlowEaseOut, fade-through, popovers,
mouse-drag/wheel horizontal scrolling).
- Library = the existing picker for now (restyled next round); Schedule
= the new SchedulePage; Settings = left nav over the existing panels.
Protocol 9 (packages/core, packages/server, sync client):
- {"t":"profile"} renames / changes the picture mid-session ("rename",
"avatar" feed actions); names are cleaned the same way at hello.
- state.members carry avatarHash; pictures are served once from
/a/<sid>/<token>/<hash> (PNG/JPEG/WebP/GIF by magic bytes only) and
cached by hash in the app (AvatarCache).

- Host/swap send refs only; pasted Jellyfin links become refs; the host
hands the relay its own app-obtained credential.
- Each viewer resolves with their own account (token in a header) or
via the relay, else a clear blocked card with Link account.
- Per-account progress reporting (Playing/Progress/Stopped), 401 marks
the account expired.
- Previous/next episode in the controls (< > / Shift+P/N), floating
Next episode pill near the end, auto-advance countdown (one
designated swapper), track carry-over per series.
- Swap panel uses the shared MediaPicker; browser location remembered
per server and opens on the current series.
- Fix: states are applied one at a time (a stale pause could land
after a newer play).

- 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.
