-A self-hosted music server that thinks for you. Smart shuffle, contextual likes, ListenBrainz-aware radio, and Lidarr automation — server-side, so every client (web, mobile, Subsonic third-party) gets the same intelligence.
+<h1 align="center">Minstrel</h1>
-> State and intelligence belong on the server, not the client.
+<p align="center">A self-hosted music server that picks what to play next.</p>
 Minstrel serves your music library to the web, to its own Android app, and to any Subsonic client. Shuffle, radio, likes and play history are worked out on the server, so every device gets the same mixes and the same history. It can also find, download and file the albums you want, through a search service and a download client you run yourself. It is for anyone who keeps their own music collection and wants it to sound like more than a random shuffle.
 <a href="docs/screenshots/home.png"><img src="docs/screenshots/home.png" width="820" alt="Minstrel home — your library at a glance"></a>
-## Highlights
+## Quick start
 - **OpenSubsonic-compatible.** Existing Subsonic clients (DSub, Symfonium, play:Sub, etc.) connect with no special configuration.
 - **Server-side smart shuffle.** Track-similarity vectors, dual-like model (general + contextual), and session memory keep mixes coherent across devices.
 - **ListenBrainz radio.** Session-aware "more like this" pulls from ListenBrainz similarity data, not a static genre tag.
 - **Lidarr integration.** Triggered scans, request-driven album imports, and a quarantine flow when something doesn't fit — against a Lidarr instance *you* run and configure. Optional, and off until you supply a URL and API key.
 - **Built-in web SPA.** Full-feature library, search, queue, playlists, and admin — no separate frontend container to deploy.
 - **Native Android client, shipped with the server.** The signed APK is bundled into every image and attached to each [release](https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/minstrel/releases) — sideload it once, then the app self-updates straight from your own server (no app store, no separate download to track).
 ## Scope and responsible use
 **Minstrel serves music you already have.** It is a library server: it indexes files on disk you point it at, and streams them to your own clients. It does not source, search for, or acquire content, and it has no opinion about where your files came from.
 Concretely, Minstrel ships **no** indexers, **no** trackers, **no** torrent / Usenet / NZB client, and **no** DRM circumvention of any kind. There is nothing to point at a content source because Minstrel has no such subsystem.
 The **Lidarr integration is optional and inert until you configure it.** You supply the URL and API key of a Lidarr instance you are already running; Minstrel then calls that instance's API to trigger scans, submit album requests, and reconcile imports. Minstrel neither bundles nor installs Lidarr, and configures no indexers on your behalf — Lidarr ships with none either, and any it uses are ones you added yourself.
 **What you put in your library, and what sources you configure in your own Lidarr, are your responsibility.** Copyright law applies to your collection the same way it applies to any other software that plays a file. Please respect it, and respect the terms of any service you connect.
 Minstrel is not affiliated with or endorsed by Lidarr, ListenBrainz, MusicBrainz, or Subsonic.

+4. **Optional: connect services.** Add a search service and a download client in **Admin › Acquisition** (`/admin/acquisition`). Each person adds their own ListenBrainz token in **Settings › Connections**.
 **2. Let the first library scan finish.** `scan_on_startup` is on by default, so Minstrel walks your mounted library on boot and imports artists, albums, and tracks — no button to press. Watch progress (and re-scan any time) on the **Admin** page (`/admin`); the scan runs in stages and is incremental, so later restarts only pick up what changed.

 ## Configuration
-Most operators only need the env vars in the quickstart above. A few extras worth knowing:
+The quick start sets everything that's required. These are the settings people most often change:
- `MINSTREL_BRANDING_APP_NAME` — rename the instance ("Family Jukebox", "Office Music"). Surfaces in the header, browser tab, and OG share previews.
+| Variable | What it does |
- `MINSTREL_STORAGE_DATA_DIR` — where generated artefacts (playlist cover collages, artist art, caches) are written. The container image sets this to `/app/data`, which is why the quickstart mounts the `minstrel-data` volume there.
+|---|---|
- `MINSTREL_LIBRARY_SCAN_PATHS` — colon-separated list of music library roots to scan. Supports multiple roots (`/music:/podcasts`).
+| `MINSTREL_DATABASE_URL` | Postgres connection string. Required. |
 | `MINSTREL_LIBRARY_SCAN_PATHS` | Library folders inside the container, colon-separated (`/music:/audiobooks`). They are used on first start only; after that, change them in **Admin › Library**. |
 | `MINSTREL_BRANDING_APP_NAME` | The name shown in the header, the browser tab and link previews. |
 | `MINSTREL_LOG_LEVEL` | `debug`, `info`, `warn` or `error`. |
-ListenBrainz integration (per-user scrobble + similarity tokens) and Lidarr integration (URL + API key) are configured through the admin Settings UI rather than env vars or yaml — per Minstrel's "config in UI" rule, integration settings live where operators can edit them without restarting.
+Search services, download clients, ListenBrainz, email and recommendation tuning are set in the web UI and take effect without a restart. The full file-based surface is in [`config.example.yaml`](./config.example.yaml); to use it, mount your copy at `/etc/smartmusic/config.yaml`.
-Most operational keys have a `MINSTREL_<SECTION>_<FIELD>` env override. Recommendation and events tuning are yaml-only. See [`config.example.yaml`](./config.example.yaml) for the authoritative surface.
+## Setup pitfalls
-## Updating
+- **The library mount has to be writable by uid 1000.** Minstrel files the albums it downloads into the library, and it deletes a file when an admin asks it to. It never moves, renames or retags files that were already there. Mount the library `:ro` to forbid writes: those actions then refuse and say why.
 - **`MINSTREL_LIBRARY_SCAN_PATHS` names the path inside the container** (`/music`), not the folder on your host.
 - **On the internet, put it behind HTTPS.** Plain `http://` is fine on a network you trust. For a public server, bind the port to `127.0.0.1` and put a reverse proxy in front: see [docs/hosting.md](docs/hosting.md).
-Image tags (`git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/minstrel:<tag>`):
+## Updating and backups
- `:latest` — the newest blessed image. Moves on every `main` push **and** every release. Recommended for most operators.
+```bash
- `:vYYYY.MM.DD.HHMM` — immutable release tags, never moved or deleted. Pin one for a deployment you don't want changing under you. The tag is the build's own version name with a `v` in front, derived from the tagged commit's UTC timestamp, so two releases can never collide and a re-cut is simply a new tag.
+docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
- `:main` — the rolling post-merge tip. Same image as `:latest` at push time; choose it if you want to track `main` explicitly rather than the release line.
+```
 - `:dev` — the rolling test channel, rebuilt on every push to `dev` and carrying its own freshly-built Android APK. Run this when you want to try something before it ships. It moves constantly, has no per-commit tag to pin, and its only recovery path is forward — if a `:dev` image is broken, the fix is the next push, not a rollback.
-Every `:latest`, `:vYYYY.MM.DD.HHMM` and `:dev` bundles a signed Android APK, so the in-app update channel is always live. All of them are signed with the same key, so a phone can move between the stable and dev channels without uninstalling — point it at a `:dev` server and the in-app updater offers that channel's build.
+Database migrations run at startup. Image tags:
-The app reports which channel it is on alongside its version, and decides whether an update is available using the build's ordering key rather than its displayed name — the same value Android installs by, so an offer it makes is one the platform will accept.
+- `:latest`: the stable release. Most people should run this.
 - `:<commit-sha>`: one fixed build. Pin one to stop updates, or to roll back.
 - `:dev`: the test channel, rebuilt on every change. It may break, and the fix is the next build.
-Database migrations run automatically at startup; rollbacks require restoring a Postgres dump.
+Every image carries a signed Android app, all with the same key, so a phone can move between channels without reinstalling. Rolling back a SHA tag rolls back the app it carries too.
-Releases before 2026-09-10 use the older per-day `:vYYYY.MM.DD` shape. Those tags still exist and still work — they are simply not extended.
+**Back up the Postgres volume** with `pg_dump`. It holds accounts, likes, play history, playlists and settings, and a migration can only be undone by restoring a dump. The `minstrel-data` volume holds artwork and caches that Minstrel rebuilds if lost.
-## Specs
+## Features
-Authoritative scope lives under [`docs/`](./docs):
+**Listening**
 - Smart shuffle that weighs what you like, what you skip and what you've heard lately, instead of picking at random.
 - Two kinds of like: a song you love, and a song that's right for what you're listening to now.
 - Radio that starts from any song, using ListenBrainz similarity as well as your own history.
 - Daily mixes and system playlists built from your listening.
 - Playback on Sonos and other UPnP speakers from the Android app.
 - Loudness levelling between tracks, so you never reach for the volume.
- [Server spec](./docs/smart-music-server-spec.md) — current implementation focus.
+**Your library**
- [Client spec](./docs/smart-music-client-spec.md) — Flutter companion app.
+- Browse by artist, album, genre and year, with search across everything.
 - Duplicates, missing files and suspect copies are found and listed under **Collection** for an admin to fix.
 - Missing album art and MusicBrainz ids are filled in automatically.
 **Getting music**
 - A wanted list: requests from the household, artists you follow, and albums whose files went missing.
 - Minstrel searches the indexers you configure, hands the best release to your download client, checks what arrives against MusicBrainz, tags it, and files it. A better copy replaces a poor one.
 - Off until you add a search service and a download client.
 **Clients and accounts**
 - A full web app, built into the server.
 - A native Android app that ships inside the server image, keeps playing what it has cached when the server is out of reach, and updates itself from your server.
 - OpenSubsonic-compatible, so existing clients such as DSub, Symfonium and play:Sub connect as they are.
 - Separate accounts for each person, with invites, and an inbox for what happened while you were away.
 ## Scope and responsible use
 Minstrel indexes the files you point it at and streams them to your own clients. It ships no indexers, no trackers, no torrent, Usenet or NZB engine of its own, and no DRM circumvention.
 Getting music is optional and does nothing until you configure it. It searches only the search service (Prowlarr or a Torznab indexer) and the download client (qBittorrent) you add yourself.
 What you put in your library, and the sources you configure, are your responsibility. Copyright law applies to your collection as it does to any other software that plays a file; please respect it, and the terms of any service you connect.
 Minstrel is not affiliated with or endorsed by ListenBrainz, MusicBrainz, Prowlarr, qBittorrent or Subsonic.
 ## Development
-Two concurrent dev processes:
+- **Backend:** `docker compose up` in this repo runs Postgres and Minstrel on `:4533`.
 - **Web:** `cd web && npm install && npm run dev` starts Vite on `:5173`. It proxies `/api/*` and `/rest/*` to `:4533`.
 - **Tests:** `make test-short` runs the unit tests. `make test-integration` also runs the database tests, against a separate `minstrel_test` database so your dev data is never truncated.
 - **Image:** `docker build -t minstrel .` builds the web app and embeds it in the server binary.
 - **Branches:** work lands on `dev`; `main` changes through pull requests from `dev`.
-1. **Backend:** `docker compose up` — Postgres + Minstrel on `:4533`.
+How accounts and sessions are protected: [docs/security.md](docs/security.md).
 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 (`.gitea/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.
 ### Branches
 - Day-to-day work happens on `dev` (or feature branches merged into `dev`).
 - `main` is **protected** — changes land via PR from `dev`.
 - Releases are cut by tagging `v*` off `main`; the release workflow builds and pushes the container image to the Gitea registry.
