The tree already links a working x86_64-pc-windows-gnu exe; turn that into
a shipped artifact:
- scripts/package.sh gains a `win` target (and `all` picks it up when the
mingw toolchain is present) that cross-compiles and zips the exe +
LICENSE + a README listing the yt-dlp/ffmpeg/mpv PATH deps.
- Forgejo release workflow installs mingw-w64 + zip + the rust target, so
a tag push produces yt-offline-<ver>-x86_64-windows.zip from the same
Linux container — no Windows runner needed.
- main.rs: attach_windows_console() (cfg(windows), windows-sys
AttachConsole) reattaches a release build to the launching terminal so
--web/CLI output is visible, while a double-click stays windowless
(release sets windows_subsystem = "windows").
- ROADMAP 3.1 updated: Windows ships; macOS deferred (needs a Mac runner).
Native Linux build + 128 unit / 11 integration tests still green.

Download management UI (web + desktop):
- Cancel a running job (SIGKILL, marked "cancelled" so it isn't auto-retried
and shows a distinct state rather than a misleading error class)
- Cancel a still-queued job before it starts
- Manually retry a failed/cancelled job (fresh auto-retry budget)
- Live speed · ETA · % on running jobs, parsed from the yt-dlp progress line
- Expandable full per-job log fetched on demand
New endpoints: POST /api/jobs/:idx/{cancel,retry}, GET /api/jobs/:idx/log,
DELETE /api/queued/:idx.
Perceptual-dedup off-switch:
- backup.dedup_enabled (default true) hard-disables the "similar content"
scan in both UIs; the web scan endpoint returns {disabled:true} and the
desktop scan no-ops with a note. Wired through all five settings touchpoints.
Docs: README seeking note + ROADMAP recently-shipped updates for the prior
seekable-playback / federation / auto-tagging work.

Configure peers as [[remote]] entries (name, url, optional password) and
browse their libraries from this instance, read-only.
- remote.rs: RemoteClient (blocking reqwest + rustls + cookie jar). Fetches
the peer's /api/library, logging in first if the peer has a password and
retrying on a 401. Media is not proxied: the library JSON's media URLs
(/files/, /music-files/, /api/transcode/, /api/sub-vtt/) are rewritten to
absolute peer URLs with the peer's read-only feed token appended, so video
streams straight from the peer to the browser/mpv while only the small JSON
passes through us.
- web.rs: auth_middleware now also accepts the feed token for GET
/api/transcode/ and /api/sub-vtt/ (read-only media, same class as /files/),
so a transcoded peer streams remotely. New GET /api/remotes and
/api/remotes/:id/library (the RemoteClient runs under spawn_blocking).
- web UI: a 🌐 Remotes sidebar switcher; remote mode is read-only (hides the
download bar + per-card mutating actions, keeps Play).
- desktop: a 🌐 Remotes screen that fetches a peer's library off-thread and
plays via mpv on the tokenized URL.
- config.rs: [[remote]] section list; reqwest dep added (rustls/blocking/
cookies, no system OpenSSL).
Verified end-to-end against a second local instance, including a transcoded
stream returning HTTP 200 via the token. ROADMAP 3.5 + CLAUDE.md updated.

`cargo check --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu` is now green (only the
upstream egui f32:From<f64> warnings). The Linux-only desktop deps are
target-gated so the rest of the stack — which already cross-compiles —
can build off Linux:
- Cargo.toml: ksni and rfd's xdg-portal backend move to
[target.'cfg(target_os = "linux")'.dependencies]; non-Linux gets rfd
with its native Win32/AppKit backend (default features).
- tray.rs: cfg-split. The ksni/SNI implementation stays Linux-only; other
OSes get a no-op `start() -> None`, i.e. windowed-only (identical to the
Linux no-SNI-host path). TrayEvent/TrayHandle stay cross-platform.
- plex.rs: add a Windows `symlink_file` arm to make_symlink (also fixes an
unused-variable warning on non-unix).
The rest was already portable (disk_space/statvfs, mpv IPC UnixStream,
chmod/PermissionsExt guards all cfg(unix)). macOS is Unix so those apply
there unchanged. Still not a *shipped* binary: needs a real per-OS tray
backend and a linking CI matrix. ROADMAP 3.1 + CLAUDE.md updated.

New autotag.rs classifies each unfiled channel from already-scanned
metadata — source platform + median video duration + upload cadence —
into a suggested folder group (Music / Shorts / Long-form & Podcasts /
Streams & VODs), with a confidence and a human-readable reason. Mid-length
YouTube is left unsuggested rather than guessed at; channels already in a
folder are skipped. Pure arithmetic over the in-memory library, computed
on demand (no background job).
Surfaced in both Maintenance views:
- web: GET /api/autotag/suggest + POST /api/autotag/apply (create/reuse the
named folder and assign), rendered with per-channel checkboxes and an
"Apply -> group" button that re-analyzes after applying.
- desktop: a section listing each group with a "Move all -> group" button.
Apply mirrors post_assign_folder: DB write + in-memory library update +
ETag bump. Reuses an existing folder of the same name (case-insensitive).
Unit tests cover the classifier; verified the apply/revert round-trip live.
ROADMAP 3.4 marked DONE.

The .forgejo/workflows/* definitions don't execute on Codeberg (no
runner). Docs publish via scripts/publish-docs.sh; tests/packages run
locally. Fixes claims introduced earlier today.

Reconcile with what shipped since 2026-06-01: format conversion (1.7),
filter presets (1.3+), hang watchdog + poison-recover locks (2.5),
desktop UI scale.
- State table: format conversion + filter UI → Tied; stability row
expanded (crash log + disk-full + watchdog + lock recovery); added
desktop UI scale row. Score 14 ahead / 1 behind / 13 tied — the lone
"behind" is edge-case maturity, not a feature.
- Phase 1 marked COMPLETE; the two last parity items recorded.
- Phase 2: 2.5 done; only 2.1 (integration tests) + 2.2 (docs) remain.
- Phase 3: unblocked 3.1 (packaging shipped) and reframed it around the
real blocker (Linux-only tray/file-dialog); expanded 3.7 dedup with
the perceptual-hash design.
- Refreshed intro + footer to "at parity, now surpassing."

Score moved from 8-ahead/8-behind to 11-ahead/4-behind. The four
remaining Tartube-leads items are now Phase 1's entire scope:
- 1.5 per-channel/video notes
- 1.7 format conversion pipeline
- 1.8 per-distro packaging (.deb, .rpm, .exe, .dmg, CI matrix)
- maturity / edge cases (continuous, not a discrete item)
Phase 1 also picks up two extension items for things that shipped at
"v1" depth but where Tartube has more polish:
- 1.3+ filter presets (chips ship, naming/saving doesn't)
- 1.2+ N-level folder nesting (one level ships, deeper doesn't)
Phase 2 2.4 narrowed to just the restore direction since backup ships.
Added a "Recently shipped" section so the doc records what closed
out each line rather than silently dropping it from the table.

To make the "surpass Tartube" roadmap concrete, document Tartube's
v2.5.231 codebase as a specification we can refer to:
- Module map: 146k lines of Python across 19 modules, with per-module
responsibilities (mainapp / mainwin / config / downloads / media /
options / wizwin / process / refresh / tidy / info / updates /
ffmpeg_tartube / formats / ttutils / dialogue / files / xdg).
- Data model: container hierarchy (Folder → Channel | Playlist → Video)
with N-level Folder nesting, system folders that act as smart filters
(Bookmarks, Favourites, Waiting, New, Live, Missing, Recent,
Temporary), and the full per-video flag inventory.
- OptionsManager: the headline feature — 164 distinct yt-dlp flags
attachable to any container or video with cascading resolution. The
spec lists the option groups (Behaviour, Network, Playlist, Filters,
Download, Filesystem, Auth, Anti-bot, Format, Subtitles,
Post-processing, Cookies, Output, Tartube-specific) and points to a
concrete SQLite + Rust struct design for our Phase 1.1.
- Seven threaded operation managers (Download, Update, Refresh, Tidy,
Info, Process, Livestream/Stream) and three downloader strategies
(VideoDownloader, ClipDownloader, StreamDownloader).
- Custom downloads (named recipes) and profiles (saved container
groups) — feeding our Phase 1 + 3.
- UI surface inventory: five primary tabs (Videos, Progress, Classic
Mode, Drag and Drop, Errors), ~80 specialised dialogs, three
wizards (Setup, Import YT subs, Tutorial), and the ~30-tab
SystemPrefWin.
- SponsorBlock + chapter persistence (slice_list / stamp_list) — a
Phase 1 add-on after per-channel options ship.
- Notable corners: master/slave dbid dedup, RSS-driven discovery,
external_dir per-channel storage, livestream message parsing, full
gettext i18n.
- Things Tartube does better (15 items, mapped to roadmap entries),
things we already do better (10 items, to keep momentum honest).
- A 12-checkbox "Tartube parity" milestone definition — when all are
ticked, the comparison table at the top of ROADMAP.md goes from
8-ahead-8-behind to 8-ahead-0-behind, and "surpass" begins.
ROADMAP.md gains a pointer to the spec just under the north-star line.

Tartube is the mature open-source yt-dlp GUI in this space and the
obvious benchmark. As of today we're 8-ahead / 8-behind / 1-tied across
the comparison matrix at the top of the new ROADMAP.md.
Four phases:
1. Tartube feature parity — the 8 items they have that we don't, ordered
by user-visible impact. Per-channel custom download options is the
single biggest gap; everything else (folder hierarchy, filter UI,
comments capture, notes, system tray, format conversion pipeline,
per-distro packaging) follows.
2. Polish where Tartube is mature — integration tests, docs site,
structured error recovery / "rescue recipes", backup-restore, stability
hardening.
3. Surpass — cross-compile mac+win, Android client, WebSocket-driven
progress, smart auto-tagging, federation, a real comment viewer,
perceptual-hash dedup, plugin/scripting hooks.
4. Stretch / blue-sky — TV-mode layout, AI summarisation, multi-user,
Plex/Jellyfin source-plugin integration.
The architectural wins we already have (single Rust binary, real web
UI, bundled curl_cffi venv, Plex export with NFO sidecars, Argon2 auth +
CSP + rate-limit, 10 themes, ETag+gzip on the library response) are
called out so we keep building on them rather than re-litigating them.
