Merge pull request 'v2026.05.21.0 — Wear OS dispatch fix, playlist-load feedback, drift CI' (#58) from dev into main

Last meaningful-feature release on Flutter. Ships:
  - #472: notification + Wear OS controls stay live across idle
    teardown (audio_handler softTeardown split)
  - #479: system-playlist tap surfaces empty / slow / failed
    states with SnackBar feedback
  - #399: drift test cohort re-enabled on ci-flutter:1.26
  - Tier-A deps sweep (audio_session 0.2, flutter_lucide,
    permission_handler), Go server bumps, golangci v2 schema,
    Flutter 3.44 ListTile strictness fixes

Future Flutter releases on this codebase are bugfix-only; the
v1 Android native rewrite has been planned.

@@ -83,6 +83,16 @@ Two concurrent dev processes:
 1. **Backend:** `docker compose up` — Postgres + Minstrel on `:4533`.
 2. **Frontend:** `cd web && npm install && npm run dev` — Vite dev server on `:5173` with HMR. The Vite server proxies `/api/*` and `/rest/*` to `:4533` so session cookies work.
 
+### Testing
+
+- Unit + race (no DB): `make test-short`.
+- Full suite incl. integration tests: `make test-integration`. This runs
+  against a dedicated `minstrel_test` database so a test run never
+  truncates your dev `minstrel` data (admin user, library, likes). It
+  brings up the compose Postgres and creates the test DB if missing.
+- CI runs both: a fast `go test -short -race` gate plus an integration
+  job with its own ephemeral Postgres (`.forgejo/workflows/test-go.yml`).
+
 ### Production build
 
 `docker build -t minstrel .` runs the SvelteKit build inside a `node` stage, copies the output into the `golang` stage, and `//go:embed`s it into the final binary. The container serves the SPA from `/` alongside the API surfaces; no separate static-file server is required.

+# CI Requirements — Minstrel
+
+> Copy of [the template](https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/CI-runner/src/branch/main/docs/requirements-sheet.template.md).
+> Family-wide policy: `ci-runners.md` in the FabledRulebook.
+
+## Runtime images
+
+Minstrel's four workflows consume two CI images:
+
+```
+git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/ci-go:1.26
+git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/ci-flutter:3.44
+```
+
+- `ci-go:1.26` — Go server tests (`.forgejo/workflows/test-go.yml`), web SPA tests (`.forgejo/workflows/test-web.yml`), and the release container build (`.forgejo/workflows/release.yml`).
+- `ci-flutter:3.44` — Flutter client tests + debug/release APK builds (`.forgejo/workflows/flutter.yml`).
+
+## Image deps used
+
+### From `ci-go:1.26`
+- **Go** (1.26 toolchain) — `go vet`, `go test -race`, `go build`, `go mod`.
+- **Node + npm** — `npm ci` and `npm test` / `npm run check` in `test-web.yml`.
+- **golangci-lint** — lint pass in `test-go.yml`.
+- **docker CLI** — bridge-IP discovery of the per-job Postgres service container in `test-go.yml` integration job (via the runner's shared `/var/run/docker.sock`).
+- **docker buildx** — release container build + push in `release.yml`.
+- **curl** — release-asset polling / upload in `release.yml`.
+
+### From `ci-flutter:3.44`
+- **Flutter** (3.44 stable channel) — `flutter pub get`, `flutter analyze --fatal-infos`, `flutter test`, `flutter build apk` (debug + signed release).
+- **Dart** — `dart run tool/gen_tokens.dart`, `dart run build_runner build` (drift codegen).
+- **Android SDK + NDK + cmdline-tools + build-tools** — APK assembly + signing.
+- **Java 25** — Gradle / Android build.
+- **git** — `actions/checkout@v4` baseline (and any shell git operations).
+- **base64 + curl** — keystore decode + release-asset upload in the tag-build path.
+
+## Per-job tool installs
+
+None.
+
+## Notes
+
+- **Label/image split.** Workflows keep `runs-on: go-ci` / `runs-on: flutter-ci` as the scheduling label per the [`ci-runners.md`](https://…/FabledRulebook/ci-runners.md) "label = scheduling handle, image = `container.image`" pattern. The labels are intentional handles, not toolchain assertions.
+- **Integration-job docker-socket dependency.** `test-go.yml`'s integration job uses the runner's shared docker socket (`/var/run/docker.sock`) to bridge-IP-discover the per-job Postgres service container by name + network intersection — the dev compose's `minstrel-postgres-*` containers are explicitly skipped as belt-and-suspenders. Depends on `act_runner.valid_volumes` whitelisting the socket; if that ever stops auto-mounting, integration tests fail at the `docker inspect` step.
+- **Go toolchain pin.** `go.mod` is on `go 1.25.0` because `golang.org/x/crypto v0.51.0` declares 1.25 as its minimum. `ci-go:1.26` satisfies this with headroom. Future `x/crypto` bumps that move the Go floor should be paired with an image-tag bump in this file + the workflows.
+- **In-app update channel polling.** `release.yml` polls Forgejo's release-asset API for up to 15 min on tag pushes to fetch the APK that `flutter.yml` is concurrently attaching to the same release. The asset eventually appears because `flutter.yml` and `release.yml` run in parallel on the same tag; if the polling times out, the server image ships without the bundled update channel (graceful degradation, not a build failure).
+- **Cache server reachability.** `test-web.yml` does NOT use `cache: 'npm'` on `actions/setup-node` — the Forgejo Actions cache server isn't reachable from this runner's container network and `setup-node` was burning ~4m41s on ETIMEDOUT before failing open. With the migration to `ci-go:1.26`, `setup-node` is removed entirely (Node is in the image). The cache concern reappears if a future change re-introduces a network-dependent action.
+- **Friction asks.** None pending. The two images cover everything Minstrel needs.

+// Flutter play-event lifecycle reporter (#415 stage 3).

+// The Flutter client previously reported NO plays — listening on
+// mobile never reached the server's play_events, so history,
+// recommendation scoring, ListenBrainz scrobbles, and (since #415)
+// system-playlist rotation all missed mobile activity entirely. This

+// State machine over (current track id, playing). Mirrors the web
+// events dispatcher, with one deliberate divergence: when a track
+// changes inside a queue we classify ended-vs-skipped by whether the
+// prior track reached (near) its duration, instead of the web
+// dispatcher's blanket "track change = skip". Blanket-skip would mark
+// every naturally-finished in-queue track as a skip and dilute the
+// recommendation skip-ratio — the exact failure mode that motivated
+// doing this properly. (The web dispatcher likely has the same
+// false-skip issue; flagged separately, not fixed here.)
