"Could not be reached" now expires after a minute. It stops reads from
going to the server at all, so nothing could ever discover that the
server came back — and a timeout during an outage produces no
connectivity change to react to either. The credential is untouched
throughout; the next request settles it either way.
A rejection is remembered against the credential that earned it. Signing
in again on another device replaces that secret under the same key, and
preserving the rejection regardless left the newly synced credential
unusable with no way to prove otherwise.
An account that syncs ahead of its credential — the ordinary case on a
new device, since iCloud Keychain delivers on its own schedule and
announces nothing — is re-checked for a couple of minutes instead of
sitting at "sign in required" until something unrelated happens. It
gives up rather than polling forever: on tvOS the wait is permanent by
design.
The feed cache no longer restores a purged account's videos from disk if
the load was already in flight when the purge happened, and no longer
leaves its loading flag set afterwards — which blocked the replacement
refresh and left the new account on an empty feed.
Signing in again keeps the account ID and the context, so a request
already in flight under the previous credential could land afterwards
and write that user's private feed back into the cache and onto disk.
Feed results now carry the account they were requested for and are
dropped if it has moved.
An account with no recorded status was reported as "sign in required".
While the identity scope is unresolved nothing can read the Keychain
under the right scope, so that is the absence of an answer, not one — on
a tokenless or first-seen Apple account it told users with working
logins to sign in again and dropped reads to local data. It is now a
state of its own.
Transport failures mark the account unreachable instead of leaving it
"signed in", which is what the documented local read fallback keys on.
Neither that nor a rejection is overwritten by the Keychain-based
refresh any more: only the server can clear what the server said.
Disabling sync deliberately does not rewrite Keychain items to local.
That means deleting them, and deleting a synchronizable item propagates
to every device — "stop syncing this login" would sign the user out
elsewhere, which is not what the toggle says. The reasoning is recorded
at the call site.
Round three of review.
The subscription picker is fed by SubscriptionAccountValidator, which still
decided availability from the instance-keyed credential managers. A login
created after the revamp writes only an account-scoped key, so it never
appeared in the picker at all - which meant the account resolver added last
round could not even be reached. Availability now comes from AccountsManager
and account status.
SubscriptionFeedCache dispatched on the legacy setting and picked its
instance from it, so an account waiting on its credential produced
subscriptions from local data while the feed reported notAuthenticated, and
deleting the selected account could leave the route pointing at its server.
Both the route and the credential now come from the effective context, with
the legacy lookup kept only as a fallback for state that predates accounts.
Foreground activation re-resolved the identity scope but only recomputed
statuses when the scope actually moved. An iCloud Keychain credential
arriving after launch does not move it, so the account stayed
credentialMissing and reads stayed on the local fallback until relaunch.
Statuses are now recomputed on every activation in both scene-phase
branches.
Providers are bound to an account but never told it anything: a revoked SID
left the account signedIn, so the validator kept treating it as valid and
neither the banner nor the read fallback engaged. Server calls now record
their outcome. Conservatively - a raw 401 marks the credential rejected only
when no reverse-proxy basic auth is configured, since otherwise the 401 may
have come from the proxy. The two-stage probe that disambiguates the rest is
Phase 2; until then an ambiguous failure leaves the status alone rather than
wrongly telling the user to sign in again.
Five findings against the accounts layer, all real.
A fresh login created a random-UUID account and then flipped
usesAccountLogin, which posts instancesDidChange and re-ran legacy
reconciliation immediately. That guard only looked for an account whose ID
equalled the instance ID, so it synthesized a second, credential-less
account alongside the real one. Signing in now marks the instance migrated,
and reconciliation treats any account on an instance as evidence its login
is already represented.
save() set hasStoredContext, so the save inside reconcileLegacyAccounts
marked the still-default .local context as explicitly chosen and the
legacy-context migration that ran immediately after did nothing. Upgrading
users with a selected server account silently lost it. Only setContext,
applySyncedContext and the migration itself record a choice now.
An Apple Account change re-resolved the credential scope but never told
AccountsManager to reload its identity-namespaced storage - the only reload
was a one-time launch task - so the previous identity's accounts, context
and outbox stayed live under the new one, as did cached per-account
subscription providers. The scope now posts when its resolved value
changes; the accounts store reloads and the provider cache is dropped.
Fourteen call sites still read the pre-revamp instance-keyed Keychain item,
which a new login no longer writes: reopening the source screen showed the
account as signed out, and feed, browse, home and import operations treated
it as unauthenticated. They now resolve the credential through the account
layer, preferring the selected context's account and otherwise any
signed-in account on that instance.
Signing in while the identity scope was still unresolved created the
account in a temporary namespace that reloadForCurrentIdentity later
discards, while credential storage silently refused the write and the UI
reported success. Login is gated on a resolved scope and verifies the
credential actually stored before reporting success, rolling back a
newly-created account if it did not.
Surfaces Continue Watching, Recent Feed, and Recent Bookmarks in the
Apple TV Home top shelf when Yattee is focused. Tapping a tile opens
the video via the existing yattee://video/{id} deep link.
- New YatteeTopShelf app extension target (tvOS only). LD_ENTRY_POINT is
overridden to _NSExtensionMain; the tv-app-extension product type
defaults to _TVExtensionMain which is for the pre-tvOS-13 legacy API
and crashes modern TVTopShelfContentProvider subclasses at launch.
- Main app writes per-section JSON snapshots (capped at 10 items each)
to a shared App Group UserDefaults suite after bookmark, watch-history,
and feed-cache changes, plus an initial write on launch.
- Enabled-sections list is mirrored to the same App Group so the
extension can respect the user's selection without touching SwiftData.
- Settings → Top Shelf (tvOS only) lets the user toggle sections.
- Deep link playback shows a loading toast while video details are
fetched, and an error toast if no source is configured.
Replace the YatteeServerAPI setAuthHeader/buildHeaders pattern (which was
race-prone on the shared actor across multiple instances) with a generic
mechanism: HTTPClient now supports a defaultHeaders dictionary applied to
every request, and ContentService builds a per-instance HTTPClient with the
basic-auth Authorization header baked in whenever credentials are configured.
The same code path now works uniformly for Invidious, Piped, PeerTube, and
Yattee Server, so any instance sitting behind a reverse proxy that requires
HTTP Basic Auth can be authenticated regardless of backend type. Cached
default API actors are still reused when no basic-auth header is needed.
Renames YatteeServerCredentialsManager → BasicAuthCredentialsManager so the
same Keychain-backed username/password storage can be reused for any instance
type that sits behind a reverse proxy requiring HTTP Basic Auth. Adds a
one-time migration that moves existing items from the legacy
'com.yattee.yatteeserver' Keychain service to 'com.yattee.basicauth',
preserving the iCloud-sync attribute. No behavior change for end users.
