- Quick chat (Enter in the full player, whatever plays): a box at the
bottom centre in the control bar's place, compact and widening with
the text, sharing its draft with the chat panel; Enter sends, Esc or an
empty Enter closes, it closes by itself after 8 s without typing (the
draft stays). Keys go to it; the Enter that opened it no longer reaches
a focused button. Typing never shows the cursor or the controls: the
frame wakes only on real mouse movement and holds the controls hidden
while the box or its echo is up. Your sent line shows as an echo (or
flies as your own danmaku line); your own chat toast is not repeated.
- Subtitle lift: always for the box, for the control bar as a setting
(off); 4 eased-out sub-pos steps 42 ms apart instead of one per frame.
- Notifications: Toasts / Danmaku (off by default): chat and short notices
fly over the full player, problems stay toasts; every knob of the look
plus boldness, persisted, with a live preview strip in Settings.
- Player panel: ⚙ → Player settings docks a foldable glass panel at the
right (tracks, subtitle size and lift, picture, volume, notifications,
controls) in place of the card; Esc closes it.
- Danmaku preview: the mock dialogue follows the lift; the stand-in page
has the chat box too.

- starsync://host:port/?name=&pw= (PROTOCOL.md "Invite link"); the password only when ticked, never in logs
- Linux: launcher entry takes x-scheme-handler/starsync (%u, StartupNotify) and becomes its xdg-mime default; Windows: HKCU\Software\Classes\starsync -> starsync.exe
- InstanceLock: lock file + loopback handoff per profile folder; the running app comes up with the second start's activation token (Wayland/X11) or AllowSetForegroundWindow (Windows)
- Sharing looks up the internet address (HTTPS services with fallbacks); members card picks Internet / Home network / VPN and says when the port needs forwarding
- JoinOffers: link and clipboard prompt with /health, joins through ConnectFlow; dismissed clipboard invites kept as fingerprints

- One server per app run (loopback, no password); Invite attaches an
all-interfaces listener to the same server and Stop sharing detaches
it (guests told with 4016); members, media and Up next never reset.
No solo mode: you're home on your own server unless in a friend's.
- Navigation: none / yours / friend; a join passes a version gate on
/health first (clear "they/you need to update", update offer).
- Invite as a value (host, port, name, password flag, version, fp
reserved); addresses filtered (loopback, link-local, 198.18/15,
bridges) and ranked; Sharing chip, Copy invite, Stop sharing.
- Alone looks like a plain player (alone replaces solo).
- AppGraph builds and disposes systems; widgets use AppScope;
SessionState deleted; a test caps the remaining singletons.

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.

- 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.

PlayerControlsModel holds the controls' state and actions once; the
Standard skin (our own, no more media_kit controls or private-state
reach-ins) and Minimal (the former uosc design, made the app's own and
credited) only draw it. One layout spec for both: play first, then
previous/next, volume, time; subtitles, audio, settings, chat,
fullscreen last; everything else in the settings menu. Settings ->
Player -> Controls: time display, size, hide delay, optional buttons.

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.

Library: source switch, selectable cards with a details panel, one merged
Continue row, Latest grouped per series without re-releases, Link page with
previews and recent links, Files embedded. Player: gear popover in both
designs, progress line while controls hide, live hwdec. Settings rebuilt as
cards. State marks the host member (proto stays 9, unreleased); hosting
shows LAN invite addresses; window buttons in fullscreen. fadeThrough keeps
the outgoing view's state.
