After read access is granted the wizard now imports the user's YouTube
subscriptions automatically (with a "Building your feed…" progress state), so a
new user lands on a populated feed — channels already in the shared catalog show
up instantly, new ones backfill in the background. The empty feed now prompts
users without read access to set up via the wizard instead of a bare message.
After the clean name/email sign-in, a wizard walks the user through granting
YouTube read (then optionally write) one step at a time, each with a plain
rationale and an up-front heads-up about Google's "unverified app" screen.
The visible step is derived from the granted scopes (can_read/can_write) so the
flow resumes correctly across the full-page consent redirect; it's dismissible
and reopenable from Settings -> Account, which now lists read and write as
separate, individually-grantable access rows.
Track who burned how much YouTube API quota. A QuotaEvent audit log (migration
0009) records every spend with the triggering user (NULL = background/system) and
an action label, set via a request/job-scoped contextvar (quota.attribute) so no
call signatures change. User-initiated work (sync subscriptions, unsubscribe,
opt-in recent backfill, manual enrich) attributes to the user; scheduler work to
System, split by action.
- backend: QuotaEvent model + migration 0009; quota.attribute() contextvar;
record_usage logs events; entry points wrapped (routes/sync, routes/channels,
scheduler); GET /api/quota/my-usage + GET /api/quota/admin
- frontend: admin-only Stats page (header nav, page=stats) with daily bars +
per-user breakdown by action and range picker; 'Your API usage' in Settings ->
Sync for every user
Verified: attribution + endpoints compute correctly; events are per-user vs System.
Move the access whitelist from the ALLOWED_EMAILS env var into a DB Invite table
(env kept as bootstrap fallback), and add a self-service request + admin approval
flow with fail-soft email.
- models: Invite(email, status pending|approved|denied, requested_at, decided_*)
- migration 0008: invites table; seed env ALLOWED_EMAILS u ADMIN_EMAILS as approved
- auth: is_allowed() (DB-first, env fallback); a denied Google login records a pending
request and bounces to /?access=requested instead of a raw 403; public POST
/auth/request-access; upsert is idempotent so repeats don't re-spam admins
- routes/admin.py (admin-only): list/approve/deny invites + manual add
- email.py: smtplib + Gmail App Password, fail-soft (skips if SMTP unset)
- /api/me exposes pending_invites; config + .env.example gain SMTP_*
- UI: Login 'Request access' form + access=requested/denied handling; Settings ->
Access requests (approve/deny + add); admin nudge toast on pending requests
Verified locally: request-access creates a pending invite and emails the admin;
seed approved npeter83; guinea-pig yt.trash2023 denied until approved.
- Increase .glass blur (32px) so overlay menus (account) read as proper frosted glass.
- Blur the settings modal backdrop (overlay backdrop-blur) so the panel reliably
frosts the content behind it instead of showing a sharp video through.
- Remove the now-redundant header buttons (dark/light, color scheme, grid/list) —
they live in Settings → Appearance. Header keeps search, sync, bell, account.
- Add a theme-aware glass surface system (.glass/.glass-card + ambient backdrop,
performance-mode opt-out) and apply it across panels, popovers, toasts, cards,
sidebar widgets, channel rows, video cards and login.
- SettingsPanel: slide in/out animation, glass styling, wrapping pill tabs (no
horizontal scrollbar) with a prominent active state.
- Notifications: auto-dismiss can be switched off (stays until closed); the test
notification now also triggers the alert sound; resume a suspended AudioContext.
- Add an app-wide, toggleable hint/tooltip system (lib/hints + Tooltip) and wire
hints across the settings and channel-manager surfaces; persisted per account.
Backend: /api/channels (list + PATCH priority/hidden + attach/detach user tags),
user-tag CRUD on /api/tags, /api/sync/my-status (per-user channel sync counts).
Frontend: feed|channels page nav (URL-synced) from the account menu; a slide-in
tabbed Settings panel (Appearance, Notifications=6b sound+duration, Sync status +
actions + admin pause/resume, Account); a channel manager with priority, hide,
per-channel user tags, sync badges and 'view in feed'. Notifications now honor the
configurable sound + auto-dismiss settings.
Each filter group is now a card with a collapse chevron. An Edit mode (pencil)
reveals drag handles (@dnd-kit) to reorder and eye toggles to show/hide widgets,
plus Reset to defaults. Layout (order/collapsed/hidden) persists to localStorage
and the server preferences blob, adopted on login.
Serialize the active filters to a compact, readable query string (only non-default
values) and parse them back on load, with URL taking precedence over localStorage.
Uses history.replaceState so it never spams browser history. A pasted link now
reproduces the exact view.
- Content type is now three independent toggles (Normal / Shorts / Live·Upcoming);
the feed is the union of enabled types (backend show_normal + include_shorts +
include_live)
- Per-channel filter: a button on each card scopes the feed to that channel, shown
as a removable chip in the sidebar
- Hide now refetches the feed once the change is persisted, so a hidden video shows
up in the Hidden view immediately (no refresh needed); optimistic updates respect
the current view
- Grid cards are now distinct panels (card background, border, shadow) that lift on
hover; clickable channel name in list view too
- Language detection: classify one cleaned+concatenated blob (strip emoji,
@mentions, #tags, numbers, punctuation); fixes caps/emoji-heavy channels
(e.g. Nessaj -> Hungarian, no more bogus Chinese/Korean)
- Feed now joins the user's subscriptions, so unsubscribing on YouTube removes a
channel from the feed; periodic subscription re-sync job picks up changes
- Watched/Saved/Hidden views ignore the Shorts/live default-hiding so the full
set is visible (fixes hidden videos missing from the Hidden view)
- Persist feed filters + search across reloads (localStorage)
- 3D polish: cards lift with shadow on hover; chips/buttons get depth and a
press effect; undo toast lasts longer
- Shorts: confirm via youtube.com/shorts/<id> probe (SOCS cookie bypasses the
consent redirect) instead of a 60s heuristic; concurrent probing, shorts_probed
flag, scheduled refinement (migration 0005)
- Search: match title + channel name only (descriptions caused noisy results)
- Faceted tag filtering: AND across categories (language AND topic narrows),
OR within a category; any/all toggle applies to topics
- Language detection: majority vote over individual titles (fixes misdetections
like multipoleguy -> English; drops bogus Polish/Romanian)
- Login: drop forced consent so returning sign-in is quick (select_account)
- Feed cards: clickable channel name (opens channel), persistent saved badge,
undo toast on hide, Hidden view to restore; tag chips show counts in tooltip
- Vite + React + TS + Tailwind SPA served by FastAPI (multi-stage Docker build)
- Four color schemes (Midnight default, Forest, Slate, YouTube) x dark/light,
adjustable text size; persisted to user preferences and localStorage
- Header search, grid/list toggle, theme menu; sidebar filters (show state,
sort, include Shorts/live, language + topic tag chips with any/all matching)
- Infinite-scroll feed of video cards; click opens youtube.com in a new tab;
per-video watched / saved / hidden actions with optimistic updates
- SPA fallback routing; login screen for unauthenticated users
