Summary

Adds a cross-playlist favorites system that lets users mark tracks with ♥ from any playlist and collects them into a persistent virtual Favorites playlist.

Connected to #329 — this branch is stacked directly on top of feat/dir-source-tui-manager and was rebased onto its latest commit. It uses the new playlist-manager flow from #329 (create/rename/delete, [[dir]] sources) and extends it with Favorites guards. Merge #329 first; this diff shrinks to the favorites-only changes once it lands.

What changed

  • n key toggles favorite on any track (main view and playlist manager tracks screen)
  • Favorites virtual playlist always appears at the top of the playlist list (even when empty, for discoverability)
  • ♥ count [♥ N] in the playlist header shows total favorites
  • ♥ marker on favorited tracks in the track list (uses cached favSet map — no per-frame disk I/O)
  • f/n ★/♥ hint in the help bar
  • Manager integration (new) — Favorites gets the same virtual-playlist protections as Recently Played: r/d/D show friendly notices instead of raw save errors, and d on a Favorites track points at n

How it works

  • New favorites/ package — TOML persistence at ~/.config/cliamp/favorites.toml
  • provider.FavoritesManager interface implemented by external/local
  • favSet map on UI model for O(1) render lookups
  • Separate from bookmarks (f key, ★ marker) — bookmarks are per-playlist, favorites span all playlists

Tests

  • favorites/favorites_test.go — Store lifecycle, TOML round-trip, edge cases
  • external/local/provider_test.go — Favorites in Playlists(), Tracks(), ToggleFavorite(), FavoritesCount()
  • ui/model/dirs_screen_test.go — N key toggles favorite, no-op without favMgr, Favorites rename/delete/dir-source guards
  • cmd/playlist_ops_test.go — PlaylistList shows Favorites even when empty

Building on the dynamic [[dir]] directory sources added in bjarneo#308, this gives
the TUI full control over them instead of forcing CLI or TOML edits.

Playlist list: each playlist that references [[dir]] sources shows a
'N dir(s)' indicator next to its track count, so directory-backed
collections are visible at a glance.

Directory-sources screen (press D from a playlist's tracks screen):
lists every [[dir]] source with its scan mode (recursive or flat) and
supports the full lifecycle:
  - a  open the file browser to add a directory as a [[dir]] source
  - d  remove the highlighted source (y/n confirm, since its tracks
       disappear from the playlist)
  - r  toggle recursive on the highlighted source (re-scans at once)
  - Esc/Backspace back to the tracks screen

File browser: pressing D adds the highlighted/selected directory (or the
directory currently being browsed when nothing is selected) as a live
[[dir]] source instead of expanding it into explicit tracks. Directories
already referenced are skipped and reported.

Provider surface: DirSource moves to the playlist package so the UI stays
decoupled from external/local, and a new optional
provider.PlaylistDirSourceManager interface exposes DirSources,
AddDirSource, RemoveDirSource, and SetDirRecursive. PlaylistInfo gains a
DirSourceCount field that local.Playlists populates from the parsed doc at
no extra I/O cost. The virtual 'Recently Played' playlist is guarded so D
shows a friendly notice rather than a reserved-name error.

plMgrRefreshList no longer clamps the shared cursor/scroll off the list
screen, so tracks/dirs screens keep their own cursor after a metadata
refresh.

Docs: docs/playlists.md and docs/keybindings.md document the new screen and
keys; site/index.html notes TUI management in the Playlists blurb.
- plMgrRefreshTracksForSel: rebuild missingLocal cache via plMgrLoadTracks
- fbAddDirSource: refresh manager before reporting partial failure
- docs: remove highlighted from file-browser D description
- site: use [[dir]] syntax instead of --dir for consistency with docs
- test: add partial-failure refresh coverage
- New favorites/ package: Toggle, Favorite, Remove, IsFavorited, Tracks,
  Count, Clear — persisted to ~/.config/cliamp/favorites.toml
- Virtual "Favorites" playlist appears at top of playlist list
- F key (Shift+F) toggles favorite on any track from the track list
- ♥ marker in track list for favorited tracks (cached set, no per-frame disk I/O)
- provider.FavoritesManager interface for UI type-assertion
- local.Provider: favoritesInfo(), Tracks("Favorites"), all write ops guarded
- 12 favorites package tests + 6 provider tests + 2 UI tests
- Docs: playlists.md, keybindings.md, site/index.html updated
The F (favorite) and f (bookmark) keys were only handled in handleKey(),
which is bypassed when the playlist manager overlay is open. Added both
handlers to handlePlMgrTracksKey() and registered help entries for the
tracks screen so users see f=Bookmark and F=Favorite in the help bar.
- Add [♥ N] favorite count in the playlist header (like [★ N] bookmarks)
- Help bar already has f=Bookmark and F=Favorite registered for the
  playlist manager tracks screen
- Change favorite keybinding from F to n (F was blocking reorder)
- Combined f/n hint in help bar to fit within panel width
- Favorites virtual playlist always appears (even when empty)
- Move f/n entry earlier in command registry for help bar priority
- Update docs and tests

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change adds persistent cross-playlist favorites and dynamic playlist directory sources. It updates provider interfaces, local storage, playlist metadata, UI controls and screens, rendering, tests, and documentation.

Changes

Playlist favorites and directory sources

Layer / File(s) Summary
Favorites storage and virtual playlist
favorites/*, external/local/provider.go, provider/interfaces.go, cmd/playlist_ops_test.go, external/local/provider_test.go
Favorites are stored in TOML, exposed through a virtual Favorites playlist, and protected from playlist mutation operations.
Directory-source contracts and provider operations
playlist/*, external/local/dirs.go, external/local/provider.go, external/local/dirs_test.go
Directory sources use the shared playlist.DirSource type. The provider supports listing, removal, recursive-mode updates, path matching, and source counts.
UI controls, screens, and rendering
ui/model/*
The UI adds favorite toggling and markers, directory-source navigation and management, file-browser directory assignment, refreshed playlist state, and directory-source rendering.
User-facing controls and feature documentation
docs/*, site/index.html
Key bindings and playlist documentation describe favorites and dynamic directory-source behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to b8db9

The PR adds a persistent cross-playlist Favorites playlist, but current behavior can make an existing Favorites playlist inaccessible, route actions to unsupported operations, lose favorite updates during concurrent writes, and show inconsistent counts or markers after load errors. These correctness and data-integrity risks should be fixed before merging.

Normalize directory paths before duplicate detection.

AddDirSources compares only ExpandPath values, while dirIndexByPath also applies filepath.Clean. Therefore /music and /music/ are stored as separate directory sources.

Apply filepath.Clean to both values before using known. Add a test that adding equivalent clean and trailing-separator paths produces one source.

Do not silently shadow a physical Favorites playlist.

If playlists/Favorites.toml already exists, Playlists can show both the virtual and physical entries. Tracks("Favorites") always returns the virtual store, so the physical playlist becomes inaccessible.

Detect this collision before exposing the virtual playlist. Migrate the physical playlist losslessly, or expose a conflict instead of hiding its tracks. Also reject Favorites in DirSources and update the UI virtual-playlist guard so directory controls do not try to load a physical Favorites file. Add a regression test with an existing playlists/Favorites.toml.

Protect the full read-modify-write transaction across Store instances.

mu only protects one Store instance. Two instances for the same path, or two cliamp processes, can load the same entries and write to the same <path>.tmp file. This can return rename errors or lose a favorite.

Lock the complete load-and-save transaction by path across processes. Use a unique temporary file. Add a test with two NewAt stores that add different tracks concurrently.

Wrap filesystem errors with favorites operation context.

Clear, loadLocked, and saveLocked return raw filesystem errors. Callers cannot identify the failed favorites operation.

Wrap each error with fmt.Errorf("context: %w", err). Include the operation and the target path where useful.

As per coding guidelines: Error handling: wrap with fmt.Errorf("context: %w", err).

Split the f and n commands into separate registry entries.

The combined spec renders one keymap row with KeyLabel: "f/n" and Label: "★/♥". A user cannot tell which key sets a bookmark and which key sets a favorite. The two keys call different handlers in keys.go (SetBookmarkByPath for f, ToggleFavorite for n), so they are distinct actions.

Extract the favorite-toggle block into one helper.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

The reserved Favorites playlist is not excluded from directory-source actions. Every guard checks only history.PlaylistName, so the new virtual Favorites playlist passes through. external/local/provider.go rejects RemoveDirSource and SetDirRecursive for it with errReservedFavoritesName, so the user reaches a screen where the actions fail.

  • ui/model/overlays.go#L445-L467: in plMgrOpenDirs, reject the favorites playlist name alongside history.PlaylistName before switching to plMgrScreenDirs.
  • ui/model/overlays.go#L510-L517: in fbAddDirSource, add the same favorites-name check to the existing target == history.PlaylistName branch.
  • ui/model/command_registry.go#L173-L175: extend the D command's Enabled func so it also returns false when m.plManager.selPlaylist is the favorites playlist name.

Report the track reload failure.

plMgrRefreshTracksForSel returns silently when Tracks fails. The callers in handlePlMgrDirsKey then show a success message such as Removed %q from %q while the tracks screen still lists the pre-change tracks. Surface the error through m.status so the displayed list and the message cannot disagree.

🛠️ Proposed fix
 	tracks, err := m.localProvider.Tracks(m.plManager.selPlaylist)
 	if err != nil {
+		m.status.Errorf(statusTTLDefault, "Reload tracks failed: %s", err)
 		return
 	}

Cache the favorites count before rendering. renderPlaylistHeader runs on every frame, while FavoritesCount calls favorites.Store.Count, which reads the TOML file through loadLocked. This causes synchronous disk I/O on every frame. Update the cached count during initialization and after favorite changes.

Render the favorite marker with the accent style, not the unavailable style.

favMarker is grouped with unavailableMarker and rendered through playlistUnavailableStyle. A favorited but playable track then shows in the color reserved for unavailable tracks. The bookmark marker uses activeToggle. Move favMarker into the activeToggle group so both state markers share one meaning.

🎨 Proposed fix
 		line := dimStyle.Render(cursorMarker) + playlistActiveStyle.Render(playingMarker) +
-			activeToggle.Render(queueMarker+bookmarkMarker) + playlistUnavailableStyle.Render(favMarker+unavailableMarker) +
+			activeToggle.Render(queueMarker+bookmarkMarker+favMarker) + playlistUnavailableStyle.Render(unavailableMarker) +
 			" " + style.Render(numStr)
