Anti-corruption boundary tightened on the TMDB adapter:
* TmdbMovieInfo / TmdbShowInfo now carry domain VOs (TmdbId, ImdbId,
MovieTitle, ReleaseYear, ShowStatus) instead of raw scalars —
validation happens at the boundary, not three layers later.
* ShowStatus enum added (domain/tv_shows/value_objects) with a
from_tmdb() mapper that falls back to UNKNOWN + logs a warning on
unrecognized values. TVShow.status is now ShowStatus, not str.
* MovieTitle cap raised from 100 to 150 chars.
* MediaResult / ExternalIds dropped. Replaced by per-media search
DTOs: TmdbMovieSearchResult and TmdbShowSearchResult. Neither
carries imdb_id — search no longer enriches with external_ids
(callers needing imdb_id follow up with get_movie_info /
get_tv_show_info on the chosen tmdb_id).
* TMDBClient: search_multi / search_media / _parse_result removed.
search_movies (/search/movie) and search_shows (/search/tv) added,
each parsing hits into VO-typed DTOs.
* SearchMovieUseCase returns a list of MovieHit (flattened to
primitives for the agent). New symmetric SearchShowUseCase +
ShowHit / SearchShowResponse DTOs.
* agent/tools/api.py: find_media_imdb_id → search_movies +
search_shows wrappers.
* FileEntry moved from domain/shared/ports/filesystem_scanner.py to
domain/shared/file_entry.py (it's a DTO, not a Protocol); size_kb
(float) → size (int bytes). Scanner and SubtitleIdentifier
updated.
Tests: 79/79 pass on tests/infrastructure/api/ +
tests/application/test_search_movie.py +
tests/application/test_search_show.py.
Series repo returns (release, folder) so the upcoming sync
orchestrator can feed the library index's upsert(..., path=...).
Movie repo returns the release alone (folder is on release.folder
by the one-folder-one-file convention) — kept as a semantic alias
of find_by_tmdb_id for symmetry with the series side.
Symmetric to TmdbShowInfo / get_tv_show_info — gives the upcoming
sync_movie orchestrator a typed cache snapshot for the v2 movie
library index.
* TmdbMovieInfo(tmdb_id, imdb_id, title, release_year)
* parse_movie_info(details, external_ids) — pure builder, parses
release_year from the first 4 chars of release_date (None on
missing/empty/non-numeric)
* TMDBClient.get_movie_info(tmdb_id) — aggregates
/movie/{id} + /movie/{id}/external_ids and feeds the parser
Tests cover happy path, missing/null/empty imdb_id, every
release_year edge (none/empty/short/non-numeric/missing key),
and the two required-field errors (id, title).
Two small additions that close out Phase 4's loose ends.
Settings — tmdb_cache_ttl_days
class Settings(BaseSettings):
# --- DOT_ALFRED ---
tmdb_cache_ttl_days: int = 14
Default 14 days, matching the dot_alfred_v2 master spec. Will drive
the Phase 5 TTL policy on TVShowLibraryIndexSidecar /
MovieLibraryIndexSidecar (decide when a TMDB-cached entry is stale
and triggers a refresh sync).
Anchor-mismatch warning
DotAlfredTVShowLibraryIndex._load_or_heal and DotAlfredMovieLibraryIndex
._load_or_heal now cross-check each indexed entry's metadata.path
against the on-disk folder layout right after a successful parse.
Drift (sidecar says folder X, X no longer exists under library_root)
is surfaced as a WARNING log — one per missing folder, with the
tmdb_id for cross-reference. No auto-heal on drift; the caller
decides (the heal path remains opt-in via index.heal()).
The warning fires only on the parsed-index path. The heal path
always synthesizes entries from real folder names, so it can never
drift — silent by construction.
Tests
* TestTVShowLibraryIndexAnchorWarning — 3 scenarios:
warn-on-drift / no-warn-on-match / no-warn-on-heal.
* TestMovieLibraryIndexAnchorWarning — symmetric coverage.
Full suite: 1237 passed / 8 skipped / 4 xfailed.
Now that rescan_show + rescan_movie run on the v2 release repositories
(Phase 4 Steps 1-2), the v1 dot_alfred stack and its abstract domain
ports have zero callers. Delete them and lift the Phase 3 quarantines.

Rewrite
alfred/infrastructure/persistence/dot_alfred/__init__.py now re-
exports only the v2 surface: the four concrete repositories
(DotAlfredSeriesReleaseRepository, DotAlfredMovieReleaseRepository,
DotAlfredTVShowLibraryIndex, DotAlfredMovieLibraryIndex) plus
ShowFolderUnknown. DTO-level imports go through
alfred.infrastructure.persistence.dot_alfred.v2 directly.
No backwards-compat shims (per CLAUDE.md): the v1 names are gone,
not aliased. Test suite drops from 10 → 8 skips (the two Phase 3
module-level skips disappear with the quarantined files).
Full suite: 1233 passed / 8 skipped / 4 xfailed.
The MediaWithTracks mixin in alfred.domain.shared.media is now
orphaned (Episode lost its tracks in Phase 3, MovieRelease doesn't
inherit it). Parked for Phase 5, which will either mount it on
MovieRelease / SeasonRelease or delete it for good.
Phase 3 prep: Movie aggregate is about to become TMDB-only (no
filesystem fields). added_at is a release-time observation, not a
TMDB-aggregate concern, so it moves to MovieRelease +
MovieReleaseSidecar.
- Add added_at: datetime (required) to MovieRelease with a
type-check in __post_init__.
- Add added_at: datetime (required) to MovieReleaseSidecar.
- Bump SCHEMA_VERSION 1 → 2 with a version-history note.
- Bridge round-trips added_at via Pydantic mode="json" (datetime
→ ISO 8601 string).
- Tests: update MovieRelease fixtures, add a validator test, add
an added_at round-trip test, switch hard-coded `1` assertions
to SCHEMA_VERSION for future-proofing.
No v1 sidecars in the wild yet — no migration code needed.
Step 3 of specs/dot_alfred.md. Concrete TVShowRepository
implementation reading and writing per-show .alfred YAML files under
a configurable library_root. Writes are atomic (.alfred.tmp +
os.replace), reads tolerate corrupted/wrong-schema sidecars (log +
skip), and the repo never invents a folder name — save(show)
requires the target folder to exist beforehand (raises
ShowFolderUnknown otherwise), matching the spec's
MediaOrganizer-then-sidecar split.
Cold folders without a sidecar are skipped by find_all and yield
None from find_by_imdb_id — the upcoming rescan_show tool (step 4)
will own the opt-in rebuild path.
A small bridge module translates between the rich domain TVShow
(AudioTrack/SubtitleTrack with full ffprobe minutiae) and the
compact sidecar shape (language-only audio, embedded-only subs with
type derived from is_forced). The bridge is intentionally lossy on
probe details the sidecar does not store, per the spec's
factual-only philosophy.
20 integration tests on tmp_path: round-trip save/find,
cold-folder/unknown-id returns, find_all skipping
(corrupted/schema-violating sidecars), delete/exists, atomic write
(no .alfred.tmp leftover), overwrite, and folder-name fallbacks
(get_folder_name guess + full-scan rescue when renamed).
Step 2 of the specs/dot_alfred.md plan. Pure-dict in/out
(serialize(sidecar) -> dict, deserialize(data) -> ShowSidecar);
YAML I/O lives in the repository layer (step 3) and is kept out
for trivial testability.
DTOs mirror the YAML schema field-for-field:
- ShowSidecar (root: imdb_id, tmdb_id, schema_version, seasons)
- SeasonSidecar (number, path, optional audio/subtitles, optional episodes)
- EpisodeSidecar (number, path, optional audio/subtitles)
- SubtitleEntry (language, source, type)
The sidecar acts as a scan cache: it stores only what is genuinely
costly to recompute — folder/file paths (skipping the FS walk) and
probed track metadata (skipping ffprobe). Release identifiers
(group, source, quality, codec) live in folder/file names and are
derived on demand by the parser; they are deliberately absent from
the schema and rejected as unknown keys on deserialize.
The serializer is strict on schema: unknown keys at any level raise
SidecarSchemaError, missing required fields raise clearly, and bool
cannot sneak in as a season/episode number. Optional fields
(tmdb_id, empty audio/subtitles/episodes) are omitted from the
output rather than emitted as null / [].
Tests cover round-trip equivalence (DTO → dict → DTO and DTO → YAML
text → DTO), the Foundation S01 PACK case (real-world fixture with
mixed sub types — superset captured at season scope), and a
Breaking Bad S05 EPISODIC case. An on-disk tmp_path fixture
recreates the Foundation folder structure with placeholder files,
ready to be reused by the upcoming repository walk tests in step 3.
The TVShow aggregate is now fully immutable. TVShow, Season and Episode
are @dataclass(frozen=True), children stored as ordered tuples sorted
by number. All construction goes through TVShowBuilder / SeasonBuilder
(new module), which expose from_existing() to seed from a current
frozen aggregate and apply modifications.
ShowTracker-territory fields are stripped from the domain: ShowStatus,
CollectionStatus, expected_seasons/episodes, aired_episodes,
collection_status(), is_complete_series(), missing_episodes(),
is_ongoing(), is_ended(), Season.name, the aired<=expected validation,
and the TMDB status string mapping. These will reappear in a dedicated
ShowTracker layer (to be designed) combining the .alfred sidecar with
live TMDB data.
New SeasonMode enum (PACK / EPISODIC) computed at read time from the
season's structural shape — never stored, the YAML sidecar encodes the
mode via presence/absence of the episodes: block.
Test suite for the domain entirely rewritten to cover frozen invariants,
builder ordering, last-write-wins, from_existing round-trip, and
SeasonMode derivation. Full suite still green (1078 passed).
The old name conflated 'might become a placed subtitle' with 'what a
scan pass produced'. The class is the output of a scan/identify pass —
language/format may still be None while classification is in progress,
confidence reflects classifier certainty, raw_tokens holds filename
fragments under analysis. SubtitleScanResult says that directly.
Pure rename + refreshed docstring; no behavior change. Touches the
domain entity, the matcher/identifier/utils services, the
manage_subtitles use case, the placer, the metadata store, the
shared-media cross-ref comment, and 7 test modules.
Mirror the MediaProber / FilesystemScanner pattern for language lookup:
- New Protocol `LanguageRepository` in alfred.domain.shared.ports
covering from_iso, from_any, all, __contains__, __len__ — the
surface previously coupled to the concrete LanguageRegistry.
- SubtitleKnowledgeBase types its `language_registry` parameter
against the Protocol; the concrete LanguageRegistry stays in
infrastructure as the YAML-backed adapter and remains the default
when no repository is injected.
- New unit tests in tests/infrastructure/test_language_registry.py
cover the adapter surface (from_iso, from_any, membership,
case-insensitivity, non-string inputs).
Behaviour is unchanged for existing callers. The split opens the
door to in-memory fakes in future tests without loading the full
ISO 639 YAML.
Add probe(video) -> MediaInfo | None to the MediaProber Protocol and
implement it on FfprobeMediaProber. The standalone
alfred/infrastructure/filesystem/ffprobe.py module is removed; all
callers (analyze_release / probe_media tools, testing scripts) now go
through the adapter.
Tests for the probe path moved to tests/infrastructure/test_ffprobe_prober.py
(patching subprocess.run at the adapter module level).
Unblocks the upcoming inspect_release orchestrator, which needs the
port — not a free function — to compose parse + main-video selection
+ probe in one shot.
- test_release.py / test_release_fixtures.py: module-level
_KB = YamlReleaseKnowledge() + thin _parse(name) helper threading it
into parse_release. test_show_folder_name_strips_windows_chars renamed
to test_show_folder_name_uses_already_safe_title to reflect the
Option B contract (caller sanitizes via kb.sanitize_for_fs).
- test_detect_media_type.py: same _KB pattern, all
detect_media_type(parsed, path) calls now pass kb.
- test_filesystem_extras.py: find_video_file(path) calls now pass kb.
- test_enrich_from_probe.py: _bare() helper adds the new
title_sanitized field.
- test_resolve_destination.py: drop _sanitize import + TestSanitize
class (helper deleted), add tmdb_title_safe arg to
_resolve_series_folder calls.
987 passed, 8 skipped.
aggregates.py used to call SubtitleKnowledgeBase().default_rules() via a
DEFAULT_RULES() helper, which silently pulled the infrastructure layer
(YAML loader) into the domain on every resolve.
Make the dependency explicit: resolve() now takes the default rules as
a parameter, and the caller (the ManageSubtitles use case) loads them
from the KB once and passes them in. Domain stays I/O-free.
- Drop DEFAULT_RULES helper and the SubtitleKnowledgeBase import from
alfred/domain/subtitles/aggregates.py
- SubtitleRuleSet.resolve(default_rules: SubtitleMatchingRules)
- manage_subtitles use case passes kb.default_rules() at the call site
- Tests use a local SubtitleMatchingRules stand-in instead of relying
on KB defaults
The placer performs filesystem I/O (os.link) — it belongs in the
application layer, not the domain. Domain services should be pure.
- Move alfred/domain/subtitles/services/placer.py to
alfred/application/subtitles/placer.py
- Move tests/domain/test_subtitle_placer.py to
tests/application/test_subtitle_placer.py
- Update all callers (manage_subtitles use case, metadata store, tests)
- Drop placer re-exports from domain.subtitles.services.__init__
Several weeks of work accumulated without being committed. Grouped here for
clarity; see CHANGELOG.md [Unreleased] for the user-facing summary.
Highlights
----------
P1 #2 — ISO 639-2/B canonical migration
- New Language VO + LanguageRegistry (alfred/domain/shared/knowledge/).
- iso_languages.yaml as single source of truth for language codes.
- SubtitleKnowledgeBase now delegates lookup to LanguageRegistry; subtitles.yaml
only declares subtitle-specific tokens (vostfr, vf, vff, …).
- SubtitlePreferences default → ["fre", "eng"]; subtitle filenames written as
{iso639_2b}.srt (legacy fr.srt still read via alias).
- Scanner: dropped _LANG_KEYWORDS / _SDH_TOKENS / _FORCED_TOKENS /
SUBTITLE_EXTENSIONS hardcoded dicts.
- Fixed: 'hi' token no longer marks SDH (conflicted with Hindi alias).
- Added settings.min_movie_size_bytes (was a module constant).
P1 #3 — Release parser unification + data-driven tokenizer
- parse_release() is now the single source of truth for release-name parsing.
- alfred/knowledge/release/separators.yaml declares the token separators used
by the tokenizer (., space, [, ], (, ), _). New conventions can be added
without code changes.
- Tokenizer now splits on any configured separator instead of name.split('.').
Releases like 'The Father (2020) [1080p] [WEBRip] [5.1] [YTS.MX]' parse via
the direct path without sanitization fallback.
- Site-tag extraction always runs first; well-formedness only rejects truly
forbidden chars.
- _parse_season_episode() extended with NxNN / NxNNxNN alt forms.
- Removed dead helpers: _sanitize, _normalize.
Domain cleanup
- Deleted fossil services with zero production callers:
alfred/domain/movies/services.py
alfred/domain/tv_shows/services.py
alfred/domain/subtitles/services.py (replaced by subtitles/services/ package)
alfred/domain/subtitles/repositories.py
- Split monolithic subtitle services into a package (identifier, matcher,
placer, pattern_detector, utils) + dedicated knowledge/ package.
- MediaInfo split into dedicated package (alfred/domain/shared/media/:
audio, video, subtitle, info, matching).
Persistence cleanup
- Removed dead JSON repositories (movie/subtitle/tvshow_repository.py).
Tests
- Major expansion of the test suite organized to mirror the source tree.
- Removed obsolete *_edge_cases test files superseded by structured tests.
- Suite: 990 passed, 8 skipped.
Misc
- .gitignore: exclude env_backup/ and *.bak.
- Adjustments across agent/llm, app.py, application/filesystem, and
infrastructure/filesystem to align with the new domain layout.
Destination resolution
- Replace the single ResolveDestinationUseCase with four dedicated
functions, one per release type:
resolve_season_destination (pack season, folder move)
resolve_episode_destination (single episode, file move)
resolve_movie_destination (movie, file move)
resolve_series_destination (multi-season pack, folder move)
- Each returns a dedicated DTO carrying only the fields relevant to
that release type — no more polymorphic ResolvedDestination with
half the fields unused depending on the case.
- Looser series folder matching: exact computed-name match is reused
silently; any deviation (different group, multiple candidates) now
prompts the user with all options including the computed name.
Agent tools
- Four new tools wrapping the use cases above; old resolve_destination
removed from the registry.
- New move_to_destination tool: create_folder + move, chained — used
after a resolve_* call to perform the actual relocation.
- Low-level filesystem_operations module (create_folder, move via mv)
for instant same-FS renames (ZFS).
Prompt & persona
- New PromptBuilder (alfred/agent/prompt.py) replacing prompts.py:
identity + personality block, situational expressions, memory
schema, episodic/STM/config context, tool catalogue.
- Per-user expression system: knowledge/users/common.yaml +
{username}.yaml are merged at runtime; one phrase per situation
(greeting/success/error/...) is sampled into the system prompt.
qBittorrent integration
- Credentials now come from settings (qbittorrent_url/username/password)
instead of hardcoded defaults.
- New client methods: find_by_name, set_location, recheck — the trio
needed to update a torrent's save path and re-verify after a move.
- Host→container path translation settings (qbittorrent_host_path /
qbittorrent_container_path) for docker-mounted setups.
Subtitles
- Identifier: strip parenthesized qualifiers (simplified, brazil…) at
tokenization; new _tokenize_suffix used for the episode_subfolder
pattern so episode-stem tokens no longer pollute language detection.
- Placer: extract _build_dest_name so it can be reused by the new
dry_run path in ManageSubtitlesUseCase.
- Knowledge: add yue, ell, ind, msa, rus, vie, heb, tam, tel, tha,
hin, ukr; add 'fre' to fra; add 'simplified'/'traditional' to zho.
Misc
- LTM workspace: add 'trash' folder slot.
- Default LLM provider switched to deepseek.
- testing/debug_release.py: CLI to parse a release, hit TMDB, and
dry-run the destination resolution end-to-end.
