Residual round after the macOS fix verification, five closures:
A connection refusal or a failed DNS lookup arrived as APIError.unknown,
which no classifier reads — so an account pointed at a downed instance
never went unreachable, never fell back to local data, never armed a
retry. New APIError.connectionFailed carries the system's own sentence
and lands as unreachable/offline in AccountsManager, InstancesManager
and the credential probe; a refused host now classifies in seconds
instead of never.
Subscriptions' periodic retry armed only for networkError, while the
local fallback's yatteeServerRequired — shown exactly when the account's
server could not be reached — waited on a status expiry nothing was
watching. FeedLoadState.warrantsPeriodicRetry gates on the context's
unavailability, so that screen heals on its own too, and an account that
genuinely has no Yattee Server still never loops.
The switcher dropped every context of a switched-off source, leaving the
toolbar badge pointing at a menu its own selection had vanished from.
listedContexts keeps the rows with their status in the title ("— Source
switched off"), isSwitchable refuses the pick, and the current context
keeps its checkmark.
The sidebar footer's switcher row overflowed the 140 pt column minimum:
the width floor now sits on the menu itself and ViewThatFits drops the
caption — the part the icon already says — before the account name loses
characters.
The channel menu exposed a raw SF Symbol name as its accessibility
title; the label is now a real Label rendered iconOnly, so the AX bridge
hears "Subscription Options".
Invidious answers a revoked session with 403, not 401, so the failure
reached recordServerOutcome as a plain HTTP error and fell through the
switch: an account whose session died server-side kept reporting
signedIn forever, and credentialRejected was unreachable on the
commonest backend. The roadmap's rule cuts the other way too — a raw
401/403 alone must never reject, because the failure may be about the
operation (someone else's playlist) rather than the login.
recordServerOutcome now treats .unauthorized and HTTP 401/403 alike as
suspicion, not verdict: after the existing basic-auth-proxy exclusion,
it hands the account to a new CredentialProbeService, which re-asks the
server with a harmless authenticated read — Invidious's auth
subscriptions endpoint with the same SID, Piped's subscriptions with
the same token. Only a probe-level 401/403 marks the account
credentialRejected; success means the original failure was
operation-specific and the account stays signedIn; an unreachable
probe records exactly that, and anything ambiguous leaves the status
alone.
The probe applies its verdict only if the account still exists and
still holds the credential it tested — a replacement or an identity
flip mid-flight drops the answer, and a dropped answer starts no
cooldown, so the login the user just fixed is examined without delay.
One probe per account may be in flight; an answered probe stands for a
cooldown before the next suspicion re-asks.
With rejection finally reachable, the existing machinery engages on
its own: the validators fall back to local data, server mutations
pause, and a successful call or re-sign-in lifts the mark.
