enrich_from_probe fills None fields on ParsedRelease (quality, source,
codec, audio_*, languages) but left tech_string at its parser-time
value — so the filename builders (movie_folder_name, episode_filename,
…) saw stale tech tokens even after a successful probe.
Re-derive tech_string the same way the parser does — quality.source.codec
joined by dots, skipping None — at the end of enrich_from_probe. Token-
level values still win because enrich only fills None fields.
Four new tests in TestTechString cover: enrichment rebuilds it,
existing source survives, no-info input leaves it untouched, fully
empty parsed produces ''.
New application-layer entry point that composes the four inspection
layers in one call:
1. parse_release(name, kb) -> (ParsedRelease, ParseReport)
2. detect_media_type(parsed, path, kb) -> patch parsed.media_type
3. find_main_video(path, kb) -> Path | None (top-level scan)
4. prober.probe(video) + enrich -> when video exists and
media_type not in
{unknown, other}
Returns a frozen InspectedResult(parsed, report, source_path,
main_video, media_info, probe_used). kb and prober are injected — no
module-level singletons in inspect.py.
analyze_release tool now delegates to inspect_release; its output
gains two fields, confidence (0-100) and road (easy/shitty/path_of_pain),
surfaced from ParseReport so the LLM can route by confidence. Spec
updated to document them.
12 new tests covering happy paths, probe gating (no video, media_type
'other', probe failure), mutation contract (detect refining
parsed.media_type, enrich filling None fields), resilience
(nonexistent path), and frozen contract. Suite: 1058 passing.
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.
Add the application-layer helpers that decide which files are worth
parsing, sitting one notch above parse_release.
- is_supported_video(path, kb): extension-only check against
kb.video_extensions. Lowercased suffix lookup. Directories and
broken symlinks return False.
- find_main_video(folder, kb): top-level scan only (no recursion into
subdirectories — releases that wrap their video in Sample/ are
PATH_OF_PAIN territory). Lexicographically-first eligible file wins
when several qualify (deterministic, no size-based ranking). A bare
file as folder argument is supported for single-file releases.
No size threshold and no filename heuristics ('sample' / 'trailer'):
the parser's job is to extract structure, not to second-guess
non-standard release shapes. PoP catches the rest.
17 tests under tests/application/test_supported_media.py.
Wire the scoring foundations into the parser entry point. parse_release
now returns a tuple — the structural ParsedRelease and a diagnostic
ParseReport carrying confidence (0-100), road
(EASY / SHITTY / PATH_OF_PAIN), the residual UNKNOWN tokens, and the
list of critical fields that couldn't be filled.
EASY is decided structurally (a group schema matched), independently
of the score. SHITTY vs PATH_OF_PAIN is decided by score against the
60 cutoff from scoring.yaml. Malformed names (forbidden chars) emit a
zero-confidence PoP report and short-circuit to parse_path=AI as
before.
ParsePath stays as-is (DIRECT / SANITIZED / AI) — it records *how* we
tokenized, not how confident we are. The two dimensions are now
properly separated.
Call sites propagated:
- alfred/application/filesystem/resolve_destination.py (4 occurrences)
- alfred/agent/tools/filesystem.py
- tests/domain/test_release.py
- tests/domain/test_release_fixtures.py
- tests/application/test_detect_media_type.py
New tests/domain/release/test_parser_v2_scoring.py (22 cases) locks
ParseReport validation, compute_score arithmetic, decide_road
thresholding, the collector helpers, and the end-to-end tuple contract.
Replace the ~480-line legacy heuristic block in services.py with a
small dict-driven pass in pipeline._annotate_shitty: each token is
looked up against the kb buckets (resolutions / sources / codecs /
distributors / year / sxxexx) with first-match-wins semantics, the
leftmost contiguous UNKNOWN run becomes the title, done.
SHITTY's scope is intentionally narrow — releases that *look* like
scene names but don't have a registered group schema. Anything more
exotic (parenthesized tech, bare-dashed title fragments, YT slugs,
franchise boxes) is PATH OF PAIN territory and stays out of here.
- annotate() no longer returns None; SHITTY is the always-on fallback
- services.py shrunk from ~525 to ~85 lines (legacy extractors gone)
- 4 fixtures get xfail markers documenting PoP-grade pathologies
(deutschland franchise box, sleaford YT slug, super_mario bilingual,
predator space-separators — the last one moved from shitty/ → pop/)
- ReleaseFixture grows xfail_reason; the parametrized suite wires the
pytest.mark.xfail(strict=False) automatically
Introduce a separate dimension for streaming-platform tags (NF, AMZN,
DSNP, HMAX, ATVP, …) so they stop polluting the encoding-source field.
WEB-DL is the source; the platform that released it is the distributor.
- new distributors.yaml knowledge file
- ReleaseKnowledge port exposes distributors set
- TokenRole.DISTRIBUTOR + ParsedRelease.distributor field
- removed NF/AMZN/DSNP/HMAX/ATVP from sources.yaml
- notre_planete fixture now records distributor: NF
The EASY pipeline now extracts the full ParsedRelease surface from
known-group releases, not just the structural backbone. Behavior is
unchanged for releases that don't carry these tokens.
Pipeline (parser/pipeline.py):
- Structural walk (renamed _annotate_structural): no longer requires
body to be fully consumed. Tokens passed over between schema chunks
remain UNKNOWN so the enricher pass can claim them.
- _find_chunk(): scans forward in the body for the next token matching
a given role, skipping already-annotated tokens. Lets optional and
mandatory chunks both tolerate intercalated enricher tokens.
- _annotate_enrichers(): new non-positional pass. Walks UNKNOWN tokens
and tags AUDIO_CODEC / AUDIO_CHANNELS / BIT_DEPTH / HDR / EDITION /
LANGUAGE. Multi-token sequences from kb.audio / kb.video_meta /
kb.editions are matched first (longest-first ordering preserved from
the YAML), single tokens after.
- _apply_sequences(): mutates the token list, tagging the first token
of a matched sequence with extra['sequence']=<canonical value> and
trailing members with extra['sequence_member']='True' so assemble
skips them.
- _detect_channel_pairs(): handles the '5.1' / '7.1' case where the
'.' separator splits the layout into two tokens. Strips a trailing
'-GROUP' suffix on the second before joining.
Assemble:
- New fields populated: languages (list), audio_codec, audio_channels,
bit_depth, hdr_format, edition. Each role-handler skips
sequence_member tokens.
- media_type heuristic extended: edition in {COMPLETE, INTEGRALE,
COLLECTION} + no season → tv_complete (mirrors legacy).
Tests:
- 4 new TestEnrichers cases covering bit_depth+audio_codec+channels,
HDR sequence + edition sequence + TrueHD.Atmos + 7.1, multi-language
with DTS-HD.MA sequence, TV episode with single language.
- All 14 v2 tests + 30 fixture tests still green. Suite: 1011 passed,
8 skipped.

The annotate-based v2 pipeline now handles releases ending in -KONTRAST,
-ELiTE, or -RARBG. Unknown groups still fall through to the legacy
SHITTY heuristic in services.py — nothing changes for them.
Pipeline (alfred/domain/release/parser/pipeline.py):
- tokenize(): string-ops separator split, strips [site.tag] first.
- annotate(): right-to-left group detection (priority to codec-GROUP
shape, fallback to any non-source dashed token), GroupSchema lookup
via the kb port, then lockstep walk of tokens against schema chunks.
Optional chunks skip on mismatch, mandatory mismatches return None so
the caller falls back gracefully. CODEC pre-consumed by a codec-GROUP
trailing token correctly skips the CODEC chunk in the body walk.
- assemble(): folds annotated tokens into a ParsedRelease-compatible
dict (title joined by '.', group from the codec-GROUP token's extras).
Schema (alfred/domain/release/parser/schema.py):
- GroupSchema + SchemaChunk frozen value objects.
- TokenRole.GROUP added.
Port + adapter:
- ReleaseKnowledge.group_schema(name) lookup added (case-insensitive).
- YamlReleaseKnowledge loads alfred/knowledge/release/release_groups/
*.yaml at construction time; learned overrides in
data/knowledge/release/release_groups/ also picked up.
Knowledge:
- release_groups/kontrast.yaml, elite.yaml, rarbg.yaml declare the
canonical chunk_order. ELiTE marks source as optional (Foundation.S02
has no WEBRip token).
Services:
- parse_release tries the v2 path first; on None falls through to the
legacy implementation untouched.
Tests:
- tests/domain/release/test_parser_v2_easy.py (10 cases) cover group
detection (codec-GROUP, dashed-source skip, no-dash → unknown),
schema-driven annotation (movie, TV episode, season pack with
optional source, unknown group returns None), and field assembly.
- Existing tests/domain/test_release_fixtures.py (30 cases) stay green:
5 EASY fixtures now produced by v2, 25 SHITTY/PATH OF PAIN fixtures
still produced by the legacy path. Verified via spy on v2.assemble.
Suite: 1007 passed, 8 skipped.
Refs: project_release_parser_v2_specs (memory)
New package alfred/domain/release/parser/ lays the foundation for the
release parser refactor (specs in memory). Exposes:
- Token: frozen VO carrying text + stream index + TokenRole + extra dict.
with_role() returns a new instance (no mutation).
- TokenRole: str-backed enum split into structural (TITLE/YEAR/SEASON_EP/
GROUP), technical (RESOLUTION/SOURCE/CODEC/AUDIO_*/BIT_DEPTH/HDR/
EDITION/LANGUAGE), and meta (SITE_TAG/UNKNOWN) families.
- pipeline.strip_site_tag(): pulls a [site.tag] prefix or suffix.
- pipeline.tokenize(): release name -> list[Token] (all UNKNOWN),
string-ops split on kb.separators (no regex, per CLAUDE.md).
- pipeline.annotate(): documented stub. Walk order recorded in docstring
(group right-to-left, then season/episode, year, tech, title).
Legacy parse_release in release.services remains the live implementation
until the annotate step lands. Scaffolding tests verify Token API,
site-tag stripping (prefix/suffix), and tokenize output shape.
Refs: project_release_parser_v2_specs (memory)
- 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.

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__
DDD-pure cleanup — entities and value objects no longer query the world
at read time.
FilePath: drop .exists() / .is_file() / .is_dir(). The VO is now a
pure address; ask the injected FilesystemScanner for live state.
Movie: drop .has_file() / .is_downloaded(). Invariant: when the
application sets file_path, it has already constated the file
exists; downstream readers trust the snapshot.
Episode: same — drop .has_file() / .is_downloaded().
SubtitlePlacer: drop the pre-check .exists() calls. The placer now
attempts os.link() and reports FileNotFoundError / FileExistsError
as skip reasons. Removes a TOCTOU race as a bonus.
Tests adjusted: the FilePath VO method tests are gone (the methods are
gone), test_has_file_false_when_no_path replaced by a plain assertion
on file_path is None. Placer tests are unchanged — the skip-reason
strings ('not found', 'already exists') match the new try/except paths.
The 'snapshot value objects' pattern (ProbedMediaInfo, TmdbMovieInfo)
that this cleanup enables is documented in refactor_domain_io.md, to
be applied when a future use case actually needs richer metadata —
not now, no speculative VOs.
Domain services no longer call subprocess or pathlib directly. Introduces
two Protocol ports in domain/shared/ports/:
MediaProber.list_subtitle_streams(video) -> list[SubtitleStreamInfo]
FilesystemScanner.scan_dir / stat / read_text -> list[FileEntry] | ...
Concrete adapters live in infrastructure/:
FfprobeMediaProber (wraps subprocess + ffprobe + JSON)
PathlibFilesystemScanner (wraps pathlib + os reads)
SubtitleIdentifier and PatternDetector now take (kb, prober, scanner) at
construction time. Their internals work over FileEntry snapshots and
SubtitleStreamInfo records — no more ad-hoc Path.is_file/iterdir/stat or
embedded subprocess.run loops. _count_entries now takes raw SRT text
(returned by scanner.read_text) so SRT-only entry counting stays out of
the FS layer.
manage_subtitles use case instantiates the two adapters once and injects
them into both services. Tests pass real adapters and patch
`alfred.infrastructure.probe.ffprobe_prober.subprocess.run` for the
ffprobe-failure cases. _classify_single tests build FileEntry via a
small helper.
Domain is now free of subprocess / direct filesystem reads in the
subtitle pipeline. The only remaining I/O hooks are FilePath VO
convenience methods (exists/is_file/is_dir) which stay as a deliberate
affordance on the value object.
The domain layer no longer reads YAML files. All knowledge loaders move
from `alfred/domain/*/knowledge/` to `alfred/infrastructure/knowledge/`:
domain/release/knowledge.py
→ infrastructure/knowledge/release.py
domain/shared/knowledge/language_registry.py
→ infrastructure/knowledge/language_registry.py
domain/subtitles/knowledge/{loader,base}.py
→ infrastructure/knowledge/subtitles/{loader,base}.py
Callers in domain/release/{services,value_objects}.py,
domain/subtitles/{aggregates,services/*}.py, and
application/filesystem/manage_subtitles.py updated to absolute imports.
Re-exports of KnowledgeLoader/SubtitleKnowledgeBase from
domain/subtitles/__init__.py dropped (no shim per project convention).
Tests follow the moved targets.
SubtitleScanner was an earlier iteration superseded by SubtitleIdentifier
and never imported in production code (only by its own tests). Removing
both keeps the bounded context clean and shrinks the surface.
10 pathological release names mined from the real downloads folder.
Each fixture locks in the current parse_release output (including
its silent losses and false positives) so future parser improvements
are intentional, not silent drift.
Cases:
- Khruangbin yt-dlp slug (UTF-8 wide pipe '|', YT ID as group)
- Deutschland 83-86-89 franchise box (group=S03 misdetection)
- Chérie Le BéBé (accented chars preserved, VFF language)
- Jimmy Carr 8-word stand-up special title
- [ OxTorrent.vc ] prefix + XviD codec (site_tag prefix)
- Prodiges S12E01 with episode title + air-date silently lost
- The Prodigy: apostrophe + Blu-ray dash + 1080i + multi-word audio
= full AI-path degeneration (everything UNKNOWN)
- Sleaford Mods yt-dlp slug (YT ID glued to year)
- Super Mario Bros [FR-EN] (bilingual tag mistaken for group)
- Gilmore Girls Complete S01-S07 (the well-behaved exception:
COMPLETE token correctly drives tv_complete + REPACK + 10bit)
Also adds shitty + path_of_pain to the per-bucket sanity assertion.
Suite: 1020 passed, 8 skipped.
Add 15 expected.yaml fixtures under tests/fixtures/releases/shitty/
covering the awkward but real-world release names from the downloads
folder. Each fixture locks in the current parse_release behavior so
future parser changes are intentional, not silent drift.
Cases captured:
- Angel INTEGRALE 3-level hierarchy (tv_complete media_type)
- Buffy custom French title with dots preserved
- Archer S14E09E10E11 multi-episode (E11 lost — tech debt)
- Notre Planète lowercase s01e01
- Vinyl ' - 1x01 - FHD' (stray dash artifact — tech debt)
- Deutschland.83 (year-suffix as part of title)
- Tatortreiniger S01-06 range (falls to movie — tech debt)
- Derry Girls duplicated title
- Jurassic Park bare folder (media_type=unknown)
- La Nuit au Musée bilingual MULTI
- Chérie j'ai agrandi (ASCII-stripped apostrophe, parses fine)
- Honey Don't (unescaped apostrophe — full AI-path degeneration)
- Hook MULTi.SUBS movie with Subs/ folder
- Predator Badlands space separators (group=UNKNOWN — tech debt)
- Westworld S04 Subs.Only (no video file)
Each fixture also captures the future 3-flow routing (library /
torrents / seed_hardlinks) ahead of the organize_media refactor.
Suite: 1011 passed, 8 skipped.
Captures 5 canonical releases from /mnt/testipool/downloads as parametrized
fixtures under tests/fixtures/releases/easy/. Each fixture declares the
release name, expected ParsedRelease fields, original tree, and the future
routing (library / torrents / seed_hardlinks) for the upcoming organize_media
refactor.
Today only the 'parsed' section is asserted; tree is materialized into a
tmp_path to catch typos. Routing is captured ahead of the planner work — it
becomes verifiable once organize_media lands.
Cases: back_in_action (movie), slow_horses_single_ep (TV single),
foundation_season_pack (S02 + .nfo noise), long_walk_with_noise (movie +
KONTRAST.TOP.txt), sinners_yts (YTS bracket-heavy + Subs/ dir).
Also tracks CHANGELOG.md under [Unreleased] / Added.
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.
