4grayandClaude Fable 5 59c15493a7 docs: sync CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md and architecture docs with actual code
Full audit of CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, README.md and docs/architecture/
against the codebase; every fix is backed by current code:

- remove documented-but-unimplemented IPTVNATOR_DISABLE_HARDWARE_ACCELERATION
  flag (no reads anywhere in apps/, libs/, tools/)
- CLAUDE.md: add epg_channel_mappings to the schema table list
- m3u-playlist-module: *-tab dirs -> *-view (+recent-view), selectActivePlaylist,
  real PlaylistState shape, ChannelEpgMetadata instead of removed EnrichedChannel,
  actual /workspace/playlists routes, per-view outputs, live-epg-panel-state key
- workspace-dashboard: per-rail Settings.dashboardRails toggles, three missing
  rails in the diagram, split live-favorites/recent-live rails,
  welcome-dashboard empty-state type, RECENTLY_WATCHED_LIVE_TV title key
- stalker-portal: CategoryContentViewComponent for vod/series, collection-route
  components for favorites/recent, corrected series-view/favorites-button paths,
  actor/:personId route, epg panel selectors
- category-management: reloadCategories lives in with-content.feature.ts,
  workspace-context-panel owns the dialog, XtreamPendingRestoreService flow
- stalker-mock-server (+app README): scenario-seeded faker, resetAll() clears
  content cache too, ordinal season episode ids, handlers/ dir location
- sqlite-db-worker: cancellation shipped (drop from out-of-scope), full
  operations module list
- portal-detail-navigation: replace three removed component paths
- tmdb-metadata-enrichment: details cache keys are id:<tmdbId>|v2
- electron-security: CSP frame-src youtube-nocookie exception,
  sandbox: !frameCopyExperiment nuance
- download-manager: libs/portal/xtream instead of xtream-electron folder,
  data-driven downloads nav, drop removed app-search-result-item note
- playlist-backup-restore: settings-backup facade owns the import handoff
- workspace-shell: functional workspaceEntryRedirect, playlists route children
- iptvnator-ui-guidelines: EPG card radius 11px, detail-view mixin is `base`
- embedded-mpv-native, player-controls-contract: minor precision fixes

# Portal Detail Navigation
This document records the current navigation contract for Xtream and Stalker detail flows, especially for favorites, recently viewed, search, and category content.
Related:
- [Embedded Inline Playback](./embedded-inline-playback.md)
## Summary
- Xtream category browsing uses a route-first detail model.
- Stalker uses an inline/store-state detail model.
- Detail pages themselves are two-state (browse ↔ watch) inside
`PortalDetailShellComponent`; entering/leaving watch is a layout state,
not a navigation. Route-level back semantics are unchanged; the
watch-state back button only closes the inline player. See
[Embedded Inline Playback](./embedded-inline-playback.md).
- Favorites and recently viewed collections now use collection-owned inline detail
for non-live Xtream and Stalker items.
- Provider-scoped collection routes fall back to the matching global collection
route when `All playlists` shows a non-live item from the other portal type,
so the correct detail host still opens without switching playlist context.
- Dashboard `Global Favorites` and `Recently Watched` widgets hand off Xtream and
Stalker movies/series into the matching global collection route with detail
pre-opened.
- Dashboard Continue Watching handoffs for Xtream series may additionally carry
a one-shot season/episode resume target. The collection-owned Xtream detail
consumes it after its episode positions load and starts that exact episode;
opening the series from the collection grid itself remains detail-only. If the
positions load fails, the target stays unconsumed and the handoff degrades to
detail-only rather than starting the episode at offset zero.
- Do not force both portals into the same browse/detail behavior unless the full
portal detail architecture is being changed.
## Xtream
Xtream category and search details are represented by canonical routes.
Examples:
- `/xtreams/:id/vod/:categoryId/:vodId`
- `/xtreams/:id/series/:categoryId/:serialId`
Implication:
- Category browsing and search can still redirect to the original Xtream content
route and item route.
- This keeps the URL, browser history, and detail rendering model aligned with
normal Xtream browsing.
Current code paths:
- `libs/portal/xtream/feature/src/lib/xtream-collection-detail.component.ts` (favorites + recent, with shared UI from `libs/portal/shared/ui/src/lib/components/favorites-layout/`)
- `libs/portal/xtream/feature/src/lib/search-results/search-results.component.ts`
- `libs/portal/catalog/feature/src/lib/category-content-view/category-content-view.component.ts`
Collection behavior to preserve:
- Selecting a non-live Xtream item from favorites/recent should keep the current
collection route and open inline detail inside the collection pane when the
current collection host is already Xtream-aware.
- If a Stalker or M3U collection route is showing `All playlists` and the user
selects an Xtream movie/series item, route into `/workspace/global-favorites`
or `/workspace/global-recent` with detail pre-opened instead of trying to
render Xtream detail inside the wrong host.
- The current playlist context must stay unchanged even when the selected item
belongs to a different Xtream source playlist.
- The workspace/sidebar category panel should stay hidden for these collection
detail opens.
- Back from a collection-owned detail should restore the previous collection
view state, including the active content tab and playlist/all-playlists
scope.
- Live streams can still open through the player path rather than a detail
route.
Dashboard behavior to preserve:
- Dashboard `Global Favorites` and `Recently Watched` widgets should route
Xtream movie/series items into `/workspace/global-favorites` or
`/workspace/global-recent` with collection detail pre-opened from navigation
state.
- When an Xtream series recent has a saved episode position, the dashboard hero
and Continue Watching card should include that exact series/episode target in
the navigation state. It is a one-shot playback request and must not leak into
normal favorites, search, category, or collection-grid navigation. Only
position rows that name their parent `seriesXtreamId` produce a target:
episode-keyed recents make `item.xtream_id` an episode id, so legacy rows
without the pointer stay detail-only instead of promoting the episode id to a
series id.
- Back from the collection detail should return to the dashboard handoff state,
not switch the active playlist.
Search behavior to preserve:
- Selecting an Xtream item from search should still navigate to the canonical
Xtream content type/category/item route when the item is not a live stream.
## Stalker
Stalker details are represented by store state and inline detail rendering on the current screen.
Examples:
- Category content sets `selectedItem` and renders details inline.
- Search sets `selectedItem` and stays on the search view.
- Favorites and recently viewed stay on their current collection screen and open
inline detail when the current collection host is already Stalker-aware.
Implication:
- Favorites, recently viewed, and search should remain in the current Stalker view when opening VOD/series details.
- This keeps Stalker behavior aligned with its normal category-content and search flow.
Current code paths:
- `libs/portal/stalker/feature/src/lib/stalker-collection-route.component.ts` (favorites + recent via `mode` route data) -> `stalker-collection-detail.component.ts`
- `libs/portal/stalker/feature/src/lib/stalker-search/stalker-search.component.ts`
- `libs/portal/catalog/feature/src/lib/category-content-view/category-content-view.component.ts` (Stalker branch)
Behavior to preserve:
- Favorites/recent/search should not navigate away to a canonical Stalker detail route because Stalker does not currently use one.
- If an Xtream or M3U collection route is showing `All playlists` and the user
selects a Stalker VOD/series item, route into `/workspace/global-favorites`
or `/workspace/global-recent` with detail pre-opened so the Stalker inline
detail host still renders on a compatible screen.
- ITV/live items can still trigger playback immediately.
- Stalker VOD items that are displayed as series because of `is_series=1`
remain VOD-backed when opened from favorites/recent/global collections; the
collection host must not convert them into regular `/series` detail mode.
- Dashboard `Global Favorites` and `Recently Watched` widgets should route
Stalker movie/series items into `/workspace/global-favorites` or
`/workspace/global-recent` with detail pre-opened inline, again without
switching playlist context or showing the workspace category sidebar.
- Back from the collection-owned detail should restore the previous collection
tab and scope instead of resetting the collection screen to its defaults.
## Decision Rule For Future Changes
When deciding how a favorites/recent/search click should behave:
1. Follow the portal's canonical detail model.
2. Prefer local consistency within the portal over cross-portal sameness.
3. Only unify Xtream and Stalker behavior if the full detail architecture is being unified as well.
That means:
- Xtream browse/search: navigate to the canonical route.
- Xtream favorites/recent/global collection widgets: open collection-owned
detail without switching playlist context. Use the current route when it can
host Xtream detail, otherwise fall back to the matching global collection
route.
- Stalker non-live items: open collection-owned detail without switching
playlist context. Use the current route when it can host Stalker detail,
otherwise fall back to the matching global collection route.
## Refactor Guidance
If a future change proposes that Stalker favorites/recent should deep-link into category routes:
- also update Stalker category-content and search behavior
- define a canonical Stalker detail route model first
- update architecture docs and portal skills together
If a future change proposes that Xtream favorites/recent should stay inline:
- keep the existing route-based detail pages reusable from the collection-owned
detail host
- verify history/back behavior, playlist preservation, and dashboard handoff
behavior still make sense
