feat(discovery): drop Shorts and livestreams before the caption fetch (ADR-023)

The scarce resource is the per-IP timedtext caption fetch (ADR-014); the pilot's
candidate set was mostly Shorts/clips/livestreams, each burning a fetch (a "none"
result is a completed fetch — it costs budget even when it yields nothing).

NewVideos now enriches candidates with one cheap Data API videos.list call
(contentDetails.duration + snippet.liveBroadcastContent — the quota API, a
DIFFERENT limit from the timedtext 429) and drops, before returning: videos
shorter than TAPIR_MIN_VIDEO_SECONDS (default 60) and any live/upcoming
broadcast. Dropped videos are never persisted, so the list declutters too.

Degrade-open: MinVideoSeconds=0 disables it (no quota call); a videos.list error
returns candidates unfiltered so discovery never breaks on a metadata hiccup. The
paste-a-URL path (VideoByID) is not filtered — an explicit request is honoured.

+invite provisioning was removed when the homelab IdP migrated Dex→Authentik
+(infra ADR-0001); Authentik now owns invites. Original record below.
+
+Accepted (2026-06-03), **recorded retroactively during reconciliation, then
+deliberately ratified KEEP (2026-06-03).** This capability **shipped in v0.7.0 without an ADR** —
+code, RBAC, and a deployed ServiceAccount landed before any decision record existed. This ADR
+documents what shipped and honestly records that the decision-before-code discipline was not
+followed here (see "Process note"). **Partially supersedes ADR-002 and ADR-013** (the "Tapir
+holds no write access to the shared identity provider" posture).
+
+**Keep-or-reverse, decided (2026-06-03).** After the retroactive recording, the maintainer
+weighed keep vs. reverse (drop the RBAC + invite flow, rely on Google OIDC only). **Decision:
+KEEP.** Deciding fact: not all intended Future-B users have / will use Google accounts, so Google
+OIDC alone *cannot* onboard them — the invite flow is therefore **load-bearing, not a redundant
+convenience**, and reversing it would leave some intended users with no onboarding path. The
+trust-surface cost (scoped `create` on `passwords` in `auth`) is accepted deliberately in
+exchange. The opposing argument (this contradicts ADR-015's "no write credential to shared infra"
+logic, applied there to secrets) was considered and outweighed *only* because the capability is
+genuinely necessary for real users here — it is **not** a precedent for widening the surface
+further. **Explicitly NOT chosen:** adding `delete` to the RBAC to close the orphan gap (that
+widens the surface in the wrong direction; accept the orphan at Future B instead — see open
+items).
+
+**Context.** Stage 1 onboarding needs a way for a friend to get a login. Two paths shipped:
+Google OIDC via Dex (no Tapir code — Dex handles it), and an **invite flow** where Tapir itself
+provisions a Dex **local-password** account. The invite flow is what this ADR is about.
+
+**What shipped (reconstructed from `internal/adapters/dex/dex.go`, `internal/web/invite.go`,
+migration `009_invitations`).**
+1. `tapir invite <email>` (host CLI) writes an `invitations` row: a 32-byte crypto-random,
+   single-use, 7-day-expiry `token` (the token is the capability), `email`, `used_at`.
+   The `invitations` table is deliberately **not** RLS/`user_id`-scoped — the invitee has no
+   user yet and the token itself is the secret. (Sound; documented in the migration.)
+2. Recipient visits `/invite/{token}` (public, no session), sets a password (validated *before*
+   the token is consumed, so a typo doesn't burn it), the token is claimed exactly once.
+3. Tapir bcrypt-hashes (cost 12) and **POSTs a `passwords.dex.coreos.com` Custom Resource into
+   the `auth` namespace** via the in-cluster Kubernetes API, authenticating as the `tapir`
+   ServiceAccount. TLS validated against the mounted cluster CA. Off-cluster (dev) it returns
+   `ErrNotInCluster` and degrades without consuming the invite.
+4. RBAC applied this deploy: the `tapir` ServiceAccount has **`create`+`get` on
+   `passwords.dex.coreos.com` in the `auth` namespace** (and only that).
+5. Dex (kubernetes storage) then serves local-password login for that email; Tapir's
+   registration gate creates the profile on first login.
+
+**Decision (as ratified now).** Accept the invite flow as built: Tapir *may* hold scoped write
+access to Dex's `passwords` resource in the `auth` namespace, for the purpose of invite-based
+local-account creation. This is a deliberate, bounded reversal of the prior "no write access to
+the shared identity provider" posture (ADR-002/013).
+
+**Why this is acceptable (the case for keeping it).**
+- The RBAC is **minimally scoped**: `create`+`get` on one resource type in one namespace, not
+  broad Dex/cluster write. Blast radius is bounded and inspectable.
+- It enables friend onboarding **without Google OAuth app verification** (ADR-008 deferred that),
+  which is genuinely useful for Future B — and necessary for users who won't use Google (the
+  deciding fact in the keep decision above).
+- The code is careful: validate-before-consume, single-use tokens, graceful off-cluster degrade,
+  sentinel errors mapped to clear messages, the base64-bcrypt storage gotcha handled.
+
+**Consequences / known gaps (the case to watch).**
+- **Reverses a load-bearing principle.** ADR-002 and ADR-013 leaned on "Tapir never writes to the
+  shared identity provider" for blast-radius minimisation. That is no longer true. Anyone reading
+  those ADRs without this one would be misled — hence the cross-references added to both.
+- **Create/delete asymmetry → orphaned Dex accounts.** Tapir now *creates* Dex Password CRs but
+  (per ADR-013) does not *delete* them on account deletion. A deleted Tapir user leaves an
+  orphaned Dex local-password account that can still authenticate (though it would hit the
+  registration gate with no profile). This widens the ADR-013 right-to-erasure gap. **Open —
+  accepted for Future B, revisit before Future C (do NOT add `delete` RBAC just to fix this).**
+- **`create` on a shared-namespace identity resource** is a meaningfully larger trust surface than
+  the rest of Tapir. If the `tapir` pod is compromised, the attacker can mint Dex local accounts.
+  Bounded by the namespace/resource scope, but real — worth a deliberate look before Future C.
+- Token custody for invites is in PG (`invitations.token`) in plaintext; single-use + 7-day TTL
+  bound the exposure, but a DB read yields live invite tokens until claimed/expired.
+
+**Process note (why this ADR is retroactive).** This capability was built and deployed by
+parallel agent sessions while the main planning thread was elsewhere, and shipped with no ADR —
+the first time in this project a guardrail-reversing change skipped the decision-before-code
+discipline. Recorded here not to rubber-stamp it but to restore the audit trail: the decision is
+now visible, its principle-reversal is named, and its open gaps (orphaned accounts, the larger
+trust surface) are tracked rather than buried in a release note. The maintainer ratified KEEP
+after the fact (see status block) on the deciding fact that some intended users cannot use Google
+OIDC.
+
+**Open items this ADR creates (tracked in infra):**
+- Confirm the RBAC really is `create`+`get` only (not broader) against the deployed manifest in
+  `infra` — a security claim currently resting on a sibling report, not a verified manifest read.
+- Accept the orphaned-Dex-account gap for Future B; revisit (orphan cleanup + the whole Dex-write
+  surface) before any Future C move. Do **not** add `delete` RBAC solely to fix the orphan.
+- Review the larger trust surface before any Future C move.

+## ADR-018 — Make Tapir usable unprompted: in-process scheduled discovery, auto-summarize default, gate-clock reset
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-03)
+
+**Context.** The Stage-0 gate (ADR-016) measures whether the maintainer or a friend *returns and
+reads/acts* over weeks. But the system could not actually be used that way: discovery (`tapir
+run`) was **host-side manual**, so a newly onboarded user saw an empty list and had no reason to
+return. The gate was structurally unmeetable — not because the product failed, but because the
+*workflow* depended on the maintainer SSHing in to trigger each pass. The runner already has a
+`Loop(ctx, interval)` (run-on-start, then every tick) and per-user mode/dedup/backoff; what was
+missing was *invocation* — nothing called it for the deployed users on a schedule.
+
+**Decision.**
+1. **In-process scheduled discovery.** `tapir serve` launches a background goroutine that runs
+   discovery for **all users** on an interval (`TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL`; unset/0 = off). It
+   enumerates users (un-RLS'd `user_identities`) and runs each user's pass inside `withUser`,
+   reusing the existing `runner` — not a new scheduler. Stateless timing; ctx-cancellable;
+   per-user failures isolated.
+2. **Auto-summarize default ON** for Future-B users (new registrations default `true`; existing
+   rows updated), so discovery both populates *and* summarizes — the list fills itself. The
+   per-user manual toggle remains.
+3. **Gate-clock reset.** The Stage-0 3–4 week window (ADR-016) **starts when this ships**, because
+   unprompted use was impossible before it. This is starting the clock when the experiment can
+   actually run, **not** a reset to dodge a failing gate (the prior window measured nothing —
+   there was no way to use the system unprompted). The 2026-07-01 check-in moves accordingly to
+   ~3–4 weeks after this deploys.
+
+**Why in-process and not a k8s CronJob.** Maintainer's call: simpler deploy (no second deployable),
+acceptable at Future-B scale (1–3 users). The CronJob's advantage — failure isolation between
+discovery and the web/read path — was weighed and traded away knowingly.
+
+**Consequences / constraints.**
+- **Discovery shares the web process's lifetime and egress.** A wedged discovery pass can degrade
+  the reading UI (the coupling a CronJob would have avoided). Accepted at this scale.
+- **SINGLE-REPLICA ASSUMPTION (load-bearing).** If `tapir serve` ever runs >1 replica, *every*
+  replica runs the discovery loop → every user fetched in parallel (429s + duplicate work). Tapir
+  must stay single-replica while in-process scheduling is enabled, or this is revisited (move to
+  CronJob, or add leader-election). Recorded so a future scale-up doesn't silently double-run.
+- **Makes ADR-014 item 2 (shared per-egress-IP rate gate) load-bearing.** In-process + auto +
+  multi-user drives all caption fetches through one pod egress, concurrent with click-path
+  Summarize. The build confirms/finishes the process-wide rate gate in the same slice; without it
+  the system self-inflicts 429s every cycle. **Auto-summarize ON is gated on the rate gate
+  existing** (fallback: ship discovery with auto OFF until it does).
+
+**Reversibility.** Disable via `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL=0` (reverts to manual `tapir run`).
+Moving to a CronJob later is a superseding ADR; the per-user `runner` is unchanged either way.
+Spec: `docs/specs/scheduled-discovery.md`.

+## ADR-019 — Authentik owns invites; Tapir stops provisioning accounts
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-07). **Supersedes ADR-017** (Dex local-password invite
+provisioning).
+
+**Context:** infra ADR-0001 migrated the homelab IdP Dex→Authentik. Authentik provides
+first-class invite flows; the Dex local-password connector never consulted the Password
+CRs Tapir wrote (the defect that triggered the migration). Tapir-web's OIDC issuer now
+points at Authentik (infra ADR-0001 step 3).
+
+**Decision:** Tapir no longer provisions accounts. The Dex-password invite path is removed:
+`internal/adapters/dex`, the public `/invite/{token}` set-password UI (`internal/web/invite.go`),
+the `tapir invite` CLI (`cmd/tapir/invite.go`), the `InvitationStore`/`DexPasswordCreator`
+ports + `App.Invitations`/`App.Dex` wiring, the invite Templ pages, and the
+`tapir invite` Taskfile target. New users are invited via Authentik's flow, log into Tapir
+via OIDC, and are captured by Tapir's existing provider-agnostic `/register` (display name).
+Login + Google moved by config only (Authentik per-app issuer); the OIDC adapter is unchanged.
+
+**Consequences:** smaller Tapir blast surface — no writes to the shared identity provider, no
+configmap/CR access, the dedicated `passwords.dex.coreos.com` RBAC + ServiceAccount are
+removed (infra side, coupled change). The `invitations` table (migration 009) is left in
+place — migrations are append-only and the unused table is harmless; a future migration may
+drop it. The `*_DEX_*` config/identity names (`TAPIR_DEX_CLIENT_*`, `dex_subject`, the
+`DexAuth`/`oidc` package) are now misnomers; renaming is deferred (cosmetic, not behavioural).
+
+**Rejected:** keeping Tapir's `/invite` UI but calling Authentik's API on claim — couples
+Tapir to Authentik's admin API + a token for no real gain; Authentik's own invite flow is
+the supported path.

+unseen video, so a large back-catalogue re-drives the whole queue through the gate every cycle —
+self-inflicted 429s with no user value (nobody is waiting on a 6-month-old video). (2) **First
+contact:** a new user sees a mostly-empty feed with no moving parts and a UI that implied
+abundance/imminence ("fetching soon" ×256, "Run `tapir run`", "Summarize now"); the Stage-0 gate
+is *return usage*, and the experience died at the first visit. Source: a UX heuristic review
+(`docs/ux-review/UX-REVIEW-stage0-recency.md`).
+
+**Decision.**
+1. **Recency bound on auto-summarize.** In automatic mode the scheduler only summarizes videos
+   published within `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW` (default ~7d). Older videos are still discovered
+   and listed but not auto-processed — they keep the manual "Summarize" affordance. An explicit
+   manual request bypasses the bound. `0` disables it (pre-recency behaviour). This bounds auto
+   *load*; it does not fetch harder — the gate (ADR-014) is untouched and the manual path still
+   serialises through it.
+2. **Honest sparse-state surface.** Copy is reframed to surface scarcity truthfully, never to
+   look fuller: "N ready · M in queue · K no captions" (not "fetching soon"); a one-line "captions
+   are fetched slowly on purpose" note; "Summarize" (not "Summarize now"); the empty-connected
+   state stops printing an impossible CLI command.
+3. **Feed IA = one list, noise-collapsed.** Summarized + recent un-summarized cards lead inline;
+   the older un-summarized back-catalogue collapses behind a single "Show N older videos"
+   disclosure; caption-less videos collapse to a one-line count instead of N dead cards. List is
+   ordered summarized-first, then `published_at DESC NULLS LAST`.
+
+**Consequences.** The auto path's per-cycle fetch volume is bounded by recent uploads, not the
+whole back-catalogue, so steady-state 429 pressure drops sharply. Older videos become explicitly
+on-demand — a deliberate honesty trade (the user chooses to spend a scarce fetch on old content).
+The single-replica assumption (ADR-018) is unchanged.
+
+**Deliberately NOT done (premature until the Stage-0 loop is validated).** Return-nudges
+(digest email / push) — a nudge contaminates the *unprompted*-return signal the gate measures
+(ADR-016); building it now poisons the experiment. Also deferred: full-text search, channel
+facets, read/unread, saved views — all need summary abundance to matter.
+
+**Reversibility.** `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW=0` restores summarize-every-unseen; the feed
+collapse keys off the same window (`App.RecencyWindow=0` → everything inline).
+
+---
+
+## ADR-021 — Persist transcripts as shared, video-keyed public content (re-analysis never re-fetches)
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-09). **Reopens the transcripts half of** the "Global cross-tenant
+`videos`/`transcripts` table" rejection (data-model.md). **Builds on ADR-007** (captions-first),
+**ADR-010/ADR-014** (the per-IP caption rate gate), and **ADR-012** (per-user RLS isolation).
+
+**Context.** Every summarization fetches the transcript fresh through the caption path, even when
+the exact same transcript was fetched moments ago — for the same user re-summarizing, or for a
+second user who happens to watch the same video. The caption fetch is the one genuinely scarce,
+genuinely risky operation in the system: YouTube's timedtext endpoint is unofficial and per-IP
+rate-limited (ADR-010), and tripping it risks the maintainer's Google standing (ADR-014). So the
+operation we most want to *avoid repeating* is the one we currently repeat unconditionally. A
+transcript is **public content** — the same words YouTube serves to anyone — and carries nothing
+user-identifying. The per-user isolation that protects summaries, feeds, and tokens (ADR-012) is
+the wrong shape for it: it forces a re-fetch per user for data that is identical across users.
+
+The original rejection ("Global cross-tenant `videos`/`transcripts` table") bundled videos and
+transcripts together and rejected both on the grounds that "at 1–5 users, re-summarizing is
+cheaper than the coupling." That reasoning holds for **videos** (per-user feed rows, genuinely
+user-scoped) but not for **transcripts**: the cost being avoided is not LLM re-summarization, it
+is a *rate-gated, reputation-risky network fetch*, and that cost is paid per re-fetch regardless
+of user count. One re-fetch avoided is strictly worth more than the coupling it removes.
+
+**Decision.**
+1. **A single shared `transcripts` table, keyed by the cross-user dedup key
+   `(provider, provider_video_id)`** — the stable public identity of the video, not Tapir's
+   internal per-user `videos.id`. Columns: the key, `source` (`captions`/`none`), `language`,
+   `content`, `fetched_at`. It holds **only public caption content + the video's public id** —
+   nothing user-identifying — and is therefore **NOT RLS-scoped**: no `user_id`, no policy, no
+   `FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITY`. This is the deliberate, single exception to the ADR-012 isolation
+   boundary, and the only one.
+2. **Summarize path becomes read-stored-first.** Have a stored transcript for this video? →
+   summarize from the stored text, **no caption fetch**. No stored transcript? → fetch *through
+   the unchanged gate* (ADR-014) → store it → summarize. The gate is neither bypassed nor
+   weakened; persistence reduces how *often* we reach it, never how *fast*.
+3. **De-facto cross-user dedup is the intended behaviour, not a feature with a switch.** Two
+   users who share a video share the one transcript row. A permanent `source = 'none'` (no
+   captions) is stored too, so a known-caption-less video is not re-fetched by anyone. A
+   transient 429 (`SourceRateLimited`) is **never** stored as terminal — it stays a per-user
+   retry via the existing `transcript_status` backoff (ADR-014), so persistence cannot mask a
+   rate-limit into a false "no transcript."
+4. **Per-user `summaries` stay RLS-scoped (ADR-012 unchanged)** and reference the transcript by
+   video id. Videos stay per-user. Only transcripts go shared.
+
+**Consequences.** Re-analysis (re-summarize, different model, paste of an already-seen video,
+onboarding of a second user with overlapping subscriptions) never re-touches YouTube — the
+primary win, and it *reduces* aggregate caption-gate pressure, reinforcing ADR-010/ADR-014 rather
+than straining them. The isolation surface gains exactly one non-RLS table; an isolation test
+asserts the boundary is *exactly* there and has not leaked to any user-owned table (this is the
+proof the public-content classification was implemented as designed). It also unblocks
+multi-model / customizable analysis (re-run analysis on stored text for free) — enabling that is
+this ADR's point; building it is separate.
+
+**Reversibility.** The read-stored-first check is the only behavioural coupling; removing it
+restores fetch-every-time. The down-migration recreates the per-user RLS-scoped transcripts shape
+(001/003). No user-facing surface depends on cross-user sharing — sharing is the *storage shape*,
+never exposed in the UI.
+
+---
+
+## ADR-022 — Summarizer is a resilient endpoint chain, not a single model
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-10). **Extends ADR-004** (the copied `llm` Primary→Fallback
+routing). Triggered by the first friendly-pilot live run, where a connected user got **zero**
+summaries after 12h.
+
+**Context.** Stage-0 ran a single summarizer model (`koala/phi4-mini`) with no fallback wired
+(`summarizer.New(primary, nil)`). The live run exposed three independent failure modes, each of
+which silently produced no summary:
+
+1. **Context overflow.** `phi4-mini` has an 8k context. Real transcripts (one was 11,602 tokens)
+   exceed it and the gateway returns HTTP 400 — and the request also sent `max_tokens=8192`, so
+   even a short transcript plus the completion budget could overflow the window.
+2. **Malformed model output.** `phi4-mini` intermittently emits `highlights` as a bare string
+   instead of an array, producing `cannot unmarshal string into []string`. The old code returned
+   the parse error **without** trying any other model — a 200-with-bad-JSON short-circuited.
+3. **No fallback existed at all** — any primary failure was terminal for that video.
+
+`phi4-mini` is kept as primary deliberately: it is fast and, on transcripts that fit, correct.
+The fix is resilience around it, not replacing it.
+
+**Decision.**
+1. **Ordered endpoint chain (`summarizer.NewChain`).** Endpoints are tried in order; the first to
+   return a *parseable* summary wins. Default chain:
+   `koala/phi4-mini` (primary, local) → `koala/phi4-14b` (fallback, local) →
+   `berget/mistral-small` (worst-case, external). All three are reached through the **one** LiteLLM
+   gateway by alias — the gateway already fronts both llama-swap and berget — so a fallback is a
+   different alias, not a second client config.
+2. **A parse failure advances the chain, same as a transport error.** "Reliably summarized" means
+   *parseable summary returned*, not *HTTP 200*. This is the behaviour the old Primary→Fallback
+   shape missed.
+3. **Tolerant parse.** `highlights`/`takeaways` coerce from a bare string (or a mixed scalar
+   array) to `[]string`, so the most common small-model quirk is absorbed **without** spending a
+   fallback round-trip — keeping the fast path fast.
+4. **Transcript truncation (`TAPIR_MAX_TRANSCRIPT_CHARS`, default 18000).** Input is bounded
+   up-front to fit a small-context primary, so overflow is prevented rather than recovered-from.
+5. **Bounded completion budget (`TAPIR_SUMMARY_MAX_TOKENS`, default 1500).** A summary needs few
+   hundred tokens; the old 8192 budget itself contributed to 8k-window overflow.
+
+**Local-first guarantee preserved.** The chain ordering *is* the guarantee: locals are tried
+first, so content reaches the external endpoint only after every local endpoint has failed.
+`TAPIR_CLOUD_FALLBACK_MODEL=""` removes the external endpoint entirely — the lever a
+**client/NDA deployment** pulls so content never leaves the local stack. With no external endpoint
+configured the `ai_routing.feature` "content only local" scenarios hold unchanged.
+
+**Reversibility.** Pure wiring + config. Setting `TAPIR_FALLBACK_MODEL` and
+`TAPIR_CLOUD_FALLBACK_MODEL` empty collapses the chain back to single-primary behaviour; the
+tolerant parse and truncation are strict supersets of the old behaviour (a previously-parseable
+reply still parses; a transcript within budget is unchanged).
+
+---
+
+## ADR-023 — Drop Shorts/livestreams at discovery to protect the caption budget
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-10). **Builds on ADR-014** (per-IP caption rate limit is the
+binding constraint) and the ADR-022 live-run findings.
+
+**Context.** The scarce resource is the unofficial timedtext caption fetch (per-egress-IP
+429, ~3 successful/pass). The first multi-user run showed the candidate set was mostly noise —
+Shorts, sub-minute clips, and live broadcasts — each of which still consumes a caption-fetch
+attempt (and a "none" result is a *completed* fetch, so it costs budget even when it yields
+nothing). Spending the rate-limited budget on content the user will not read is the waste to
+cut first; it is cheaper and lower-risk than raising the ceiling (multi-IP, Whisper).
+
+Duration and live status are NOT in the playlistItems discovery response, but they ARE in the
+Data API `videos.list` (contentDetails.duration + snippet.liveBroadcastContent) — the official
+**quota-based** API (1 unit/call, 50 ids/call), which is a *different* limit from the timedtext
+429. So one cheap quota call buys a filter that saves many expensive throttled fetches.
+
+**Decision.**
+1. `NewVideos` enriches its candidates with a single `videos.list` call and drops, before
+   returning: videos shorter than `TAPIR_MIN_VIDEO_SECONDS` (default 60) and any `live`/
+   `upcoming` broadcast. Dropped videos are never persisted, so they also declutter the list.
+2. The filter is **degrade-open**: `MinVideoSeconds=0` disables it (no quota call), and a
+   `videos.list` error returns the candidates unfiltered — discovery must never break because a
+   metadata call hiccuped (worst case = pre-ADR-023 behaviour).
+3. The paste-a-URL path (`VideoByID`) is **not** filtered — an explicit user request for a
+   specific video (even a Short) is honoured.
+
+**Reversibility.** Pure discovery-time filter + config. `TAPIR_MIN_VIDEO_SECONDS=0` restores
+the old behaviour. No schema change, no effect on already-stored videos.
+
+**Quota note.** Per-channel enrichment adds ~1 unit/channel/pass. At pilot scale (≤3 users)
+this is well under the 10k/day cap; at larger scale, batch `videos.list` across channels
+(50 ids/call) by collecting all discovered ids per pass before enriching.

+
+`cmdServe` launches a background goroutine when `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL > 0`. On each tick
+it calls `store.ListAllUsers` (un-RLS'd admin query), builds a per-user `runner.Runner`, and
+calls `RunOnce` for each registered user in sequence.

+
+**Single-replica constraint (load-bearing).** The scheduler lives in the web process;
+`replicas: 1` in the k3s deployment manifest is not cosmetic — running `tapir serve` at
+>1 replica makes every replica run the full discovery loop, causing every registered user
+to be fetched in parallel from the same egress IP (429s + duplicate work). Do not scale
+`serve` past 1 replica without first moving discovery to a k8s CronJob or adding leader
+election. The process logs a `Warn` at startup when scheduled discovery is enabled as a
+reminder.
+
+---
+
+## Process-wide timedtext rate gate
+
+**`internal/adapters/youtube/gate.go`** (ADR-014 item 2): a single `rate.Limiter`
+(`golang.org/x/time/rate`) shared across **all** Adapter instances. Every `httpDo` call for
+a caption fetch passes through `WaitFetchGate(ctx)` before hitting YouTube. This serialises
+the scheduler loop AND the web click-path through the same per-egress-IP budget. Configured
+via `TAPIR_FETCH_RATE` (Go duration, default `2s`). Setting it to `0` disables the gate
+(dev/tests only).
+
+This is the precondition that makes scheduled auto-summarize safe: without the gate, a
+multi-user scheduler pass could fire many concurrent timedtext requests from the same IP
+within seconds, triggering 429s for all users.
+
+### Two-path summarisation model
+
+Both paths share `globalFetchGate` — rate limiting is **respected in both**, not routed around.
+
+| Path | Trigger | Order | Rationale |
+|------|---------|-------|-----------|
+| **Foreground** | User clicks "Summarize" on any non-summarized card (`POST /v/{id}/retry-now` for rate-limited; `POST /v/{id}/summarize` for pending) | Single chosen video | On-demand value: user picks a specific video to read now — bypasses the recency bound |
+| **Background batch** | Scheduled discovery pass every `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL` | **Newest-first across all channels** (see below), **bounded to the recency window** (ADR-020) | Onboarding prioritisation within bounded load: recent videos auto-fill; the older back-catalogue stays on-demand |
+
+The rationale for both paths is **onboarding prioritisation under an honest, bounded load** — a
+new user gets summaries of their most recent videos automatically, while the older back-catalogue
+is listed but summarised only on demand, so it never re-drives the shared rate gate every cycle.
+
+### Newest-first batch ordering (ADR-018)
+
+Within each scheduled pass, `RunOnce` uses a three-phase structure:
+
+1. **Discover + persist**: walk all channels, `UpsertVideo` every candidate (so it appears in
+   the list), apply pre-filters (seen/manual/backoff/**recency**), collect surviving candidates.
+   The recency pre-filter (ADR-020) drops auto-mode videos published before
+   `now - TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW` unless they are explicitly requested; an undated video is
+   never aged out. They remain persisted/listed — only auto-summarisation is skipped.
+2. **Sort**: order candidates `published_at DESC, NULLS LAST, discovery_pos ASC`. Videos with
+   no publish date (schema 001: nullable) sort after all dated content. The sort is in-memory
+   (`slices.SortStableFunc`) — at current scale this is fine.
+3. **Process**: feed candidates to the engine in sorted order through `globalFetchGate`.
+
+Before (per-channel inline): `[chanA-old, chanA-mid, chanB-new, chanB-null]`
+After  (newest-first):       `[chanB-new, chanA-mid, chanA-old, chanB-null]`
+
+The set of *processed* videos now also excludes auto-mode back-catalogue beyond the recency
+window (those stay listed, summarised on demand); within the processed set, only order changes.

+# Spec — Newest-first batch ordering + honest "Try now" / prioritisation docs
+
+> **Extended by ADR-020 (2026-06-08).** This spec covers the *batch processing* order within a
+> pass. ADR-020 adds (a) a recency pre-filter — auto mode skips videos published before
+> `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW`, listed but summarised on demand — and (b) the same
+> `published_at DESC NULLS LAST` ordering on the **list read** (`ListVideos`), which previously
+> sorted by `seen_at`. See `DECISIONS.md` ADR-020.
+
+**Repo:** tapir · **Size:** small · **Solo session.**
+
+**Why.** Product intent (maintainer, 2026-06-06): a new user should get summaries of their
+**newest** videos quickly, while the older back-catalogue fills in behind — all within the one
+shared rate gate. Today the foreground path ("Try now" button) lets a user hand-pick a video,
+but the **background batch processes in subscription/channel order, not newest-first** — so a new
+user with a large candidate set sees the batch summarise whatever channel is first in their
+subscription list, not their newest videos. This slice makes the batch agree with the intent, and
+fixes the docs to describe the real rationale (onboarding prioritisation), not the
+traffic-disguising framing a prior session wrote.
+
+Read `CLAUDE.md` + `DECISIONS.md` (ADR-014, ADR-018) first. TBD, conventional commits,
+`task check` green per commit, `templ generate` if views change.
+
+## 1. Newest-first batch ordering (the build)
+In `internal/runner/runner.go` `RunOnce`: today the loop processes each video inline while
+walking subscriptions channel-by-channel (`for sub → NewVideos → for v → process`). Change so
+that, within a pass, **candidates are processed newest-first across ALL channels**:
+- Collect the candidate videos across channels first (after dedup/seen/manual/rate-limit
+  filtering as today), then **sort by `published_at` descending before processing**, then process
+  in that order through the engine + shared `globalFetchGate`.
+- **`published_at` is nullable** (schema 001). Sort **NULLS LAST** — videos with no publish date
+  must not jump ahead of dated newest videos. Decide a stable tiebreak (e.g. `seen_at DESC`) for
+  equal/again-null dates.
+- Keep all existing behaviour: per-item failure isolation, the rate-limit backoff skip, manual
+  mode, channel-unavailable handling, stats. Ordering is the only change — not what gets
+  processed, just the order.
+- At 868 candidates a collect-then-sort in memory is fine; do **not** build a streaming/external
+  sort. Keep it simple.
+- The shared rate gate (`globalFetchGate`) is unchanged and still governs fetch pacing — ordering
+  does not bypass or weaken it.
+
+**Optional (only if cheap and clearly correct):** a soft cap so the *first* pass for a brand-new
+user summarises the newest N (e.g. 20) quickly and defers the long tail to subsequent passes — so
+onboarding value lands fast without waiting for the whole sorted set. If this adds real
+complexity, SKIP it and just do the newest-first ordering; the ordering alone delivers the intent.
+
+## 2. Tests
+- Given candidates across multiple channels with mixed `published_at` (incl. some NULL), assert
+  the processing order is newest-first, NULLS LAST, with the chosen tiebreak. Use the existing
+  fake VideoStore/Processor pattern in `runner_test.go`.
+- Assert ordering does not change *which* videos are processed vs. today (same set, new order).
+- Rate-gate / backoff / manual-mode behaviour unchanged (existing tests stay green).
+
+## 3. Docs — describe the REAL rationale (replace prior framing)
+The "Try now" button and the discovery batch together implement **onboarding prioritisation**:
+foreground (user-clicked "Try now") summarises a specific video on demand; background batch
+summarises newest-first; both honour the shared rate gate. **Update the docs to state this intent
+— and explicitly REMOVE/replace any framing that describes "Try now" as making traffic "look
+organic to YouTube" or evading rate limits.** That is not the rationale. The rationale is: *get
+the user a few summaries of their newest, most relevant videos fast; process the back-catalogue in
+the background; always within the honest shared rate limit.* Rate limiting is **respected**, not
+evaded.
+- `docs/ui-spec.md`: "Try now" = on-demand foreground summarisation of a chosen (typically newer)
+  video; rationale = fast onboarding value, not traffic shaping.
+- `docs/architecture/architecture.md`: document the two-path model — foreground on-demand vs.
+  background newest-first batch, both through `globalFetchGate` — and the newest-first ordering.
+- Any requirements/use-case doc mentioning discovery order: state newest-first.
+- If a brain note or `wiki` entry captured the "looks organic" rationale, correct it there too.
+
+## Boundaries
+- Do NOT increase fetch rate or weaken the rate gate. Account-safety constraint stands: the
+  caption endpoint is unofficial (ADR-010) and must be treated with honest backoff, never evasion.
+- Do NOT touch RLS, credentials, or the Dex surface.
+- Ordering change is within a pass only — no persisted priority queue, no new table.
+
+## Out of scope
+Per-user configurable ordering; priority weighting beyond newest-first; the soft-cap if it proves
+non-trivial.

+# Spec — In-process scheduled discovery + auto-summarize + rate-gate finish
+
+> **Extended by ADR-020 (2026-06-08).** Auto-summarize is no longer "every unseen video": the
+> scheduler now skips videos published before `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW` (default ~7d) unless
+> explicitly requested, so a back-catalogue does not re-drive the rate gate every cycle. See
+> `DECISIONS.md` ADR-020.
+
+**Repo:** tapir · **Size:** medium · **Solo session** (not a swarm).
+
+**Why this exists.** The Stage-0 gate ("me or a friend returns and reads/acts in ≥2 separate
+weeks") cannot be met because the system is not usable *unprompted*: discovery (`tapir run`) is
+host-side manual, so a newly onboarded user sees an empty list and never comes back. This slice
+makes Tapir watch on its own — the thing that makes the gate experiment actually runnable.
+
+Read `CLAUDE.md` + `DECISIONS.md` (esp. ADR-012, ADR-014, and the new ADR-018) first. TBD —
+commit directly to `main`, one logical change per commit, conventional commits, `task check`
+green before each commit. `templ generate` if any view changes.
+
+## Decisions already made (do not reopen)
+- **In-process scheduler**, NOT a k8s CronJob (maintainer's call: simpler deploy, acceptable
+  coupling at 3 users). The known cost — discovery shares the web process's lifetime and egress
+  — is accepted and recorded in ADR-018.
+- **Auto-summarize ON** for the maintainer + onboarded friends (zero-friction: the list fills
+  and summarizes itself).
+- **Gate clock resets** to when this ships (ADR-018) — until unprompted use is possible, the
+  prior window measured nothing.
+
+## 1. In-process scheduled discovery (core)
+- In `tapir serve` startup, launch a background goroutine that runs discovery for ALL users on
+  an interval: env `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL` (Go duration, e.g. `2h`). **Unset or 0 = disabled**
+  (so dev/tests never auto-fetch).
+- **Reuse the existing `runner.Runner` + `Loop`/`RunOnce`. Do NOT write a new scheduler.** The
+  per-user Runner already exists; the new work is **iterating users** and running one pass each
+  per tick. Enumerate users from the un-RLS'd `user_identities` (the same enumerate-then-act
+  pattern the login_events gate query established), then run each user's pass **inside that
+  user's RLS scope** (`withUser`).
+- **Stateless timing:** run-once-on-startup, then every interval — exactly the existing `Loop`
+  shape. Do NOT persist schedule state; a pod restart just restarts the cycle. Acceptable at this
+  scale. Do not build cron-in-Go.
+- **Graceful shutdown:** the goroutine respects `ctx` cancellation so a pod term doesn't wedge.
+- **Failure isolation in the loop:** one user's pass failing (or one channel/video) must not
+  abort the other users or crash `serve` — log and continue. (RunOnce already collects per-item
+  errors; preserve that at the per-user level too.)
+
+## 2. Auto-summarize default ON for Future-B users
+- New registrations default `auto_summarize = true` (so onboarded friends get zero-friction);
+  keep the account-page toggle so a user can switch to manual. One-off update existing user rows
+  to `true` as well (maintainer + any current users).
+- Consequence (intended): scheduled discovery both discovers AND summarizes new videos — which
+  is the point, and is why §3 is mandatory in the same slice.
+
+## 3. Finish/confirm the ADR-014 shared per-egress-IP rate gate (NOW load-bearing)
+- In-process scheduling + auto-summarize + multiple users = all caption fetches leave the **one
+  web pod's egress IP**, concurrently with any live "Summarize" button clicks. The timedtext
+  endpoint rate-limits per IP (ADR-010/014). Without a shared gate this self-inflicts 429s every
+  cycle.
+- **Confirm in code whether ADR-014 item 2 (a single PROCESS-WIDE rate gate) exists.**
+  Reconciliation flagged it as possibly built only as per-*video* backoff. If it is not a
+  process-wide gate, **build it now**: ONE shared limiter (token-bucket / min-interval) that
+  every timedtext/caption fetch passes through — scheduler loop AND click-path alike. Per-process,
+  not per-user, not per-video.
+- Keep the existing per-video 429 backoff (`rate_limited_at` + retry window) — complementary: the
+  gate prevents tripping 429; the backoff handles it if one still happens.
+- Honest UX (ADR-014 item 3) still applies: a fetch waiting on the gate shows "queued/waiting",
+  never a stuck spinner.
+
+## 4. Gate-clock reset — already recorded in ADR-018; verify VISION reflects it
+- ADR-018 (committed) resets the Stage-0 3–4 week window to start when this ships, and revises the
+  check-in date. VISION Stage 0 carries a pointer to it. The build doesn't re-decide this; just
+  ensure nothing in docs still implies the clock started earlier.
+
+## Tests
+- **Scheduler:** fake clock + fake Runner → N users each get one pass per tick; one user's failure
+  doesn't stop the others; `ctx` cancel stops the loop; interval=0 disables it entirely.
+- **Rate gate:** concurrent fetches (scheduler + simulated click) are serialized/limited through
+  the ONE gate — assert max-in-flight / min-interval honored regardless of caller.
+- **Auto-summarize default:** new registration → `auto_summarize = true`; account-page toggle
+  still flips it.
+
+## Out of scope / known constraints
+- No CronJob / k8s objects (in-process chosen).
+- **SINGLE-REPLICA ASSUMPTION (load-bearing).** In-process scheduling means if `tapir serve` ever
+  runs >1 replica, every replica runs the discovery loop → every user fetched in parallel (429s +
+  duplicate work). At 3 users this is single-replica, fine — but the build MUST note this
+  constraint in ADR-018 / deploy docs so a future scale-up doesn't silently double-run.
+- No persisted schedules, no multi-pod coordination.
+
+## Fallback if the session runs short
+Ship the scheduler with **auto-summarize OFF** (discovery only; manual Summarize button) until the
+process-wide rate gate (§3) is confirmed/built. NEVER ship auto-summarize-on-a-schedule without the
+gate — that combination self-inflicts 429s for every user every cycle. Auto-summarize ON is gated
+on §3 being done.

+# Spec — Unify video-card states: one "Summarize now" verb, honest no-captions state
+
+> **Superseded in part by ADR-020 (2026-06-08).** The five card states still hold, but the copy
+> changed: the nudge verb is now **"Summarize"** (not "Summarize now"), the rate-limited state
+> reads **"In queue"** (not "Fetching soon…"), and the queued state reads **"summarizing
+> shortly"** (not "waiting for the next run"). The list also now collapses older un-summarized
+> and caption-less videos. See `DECISIONS.md` ADR-020 and `views.templ` (`VideoCard`) for the
+> current copy; this doc is kept as the original design record.
+
+**Repo:** tapir · **Size:** small, **view-layer only** (`views.templ` + a little CSS in
+`view.go`; regenerate `views_templ.go`). No handler, store, or DB change. The two existing
+handlers (`/summarize`, `/retry-now`) stay exactly as they are — only what the card *shows*
+changes.
+
+**Why.** The video card today presents two different verbs — "Try now" (`.btn-retry`, on
+rate-limited videos) and "Summarize" (`.btn-secondary`, on pending videos) — for what the user
+experiences as one intent: *"summarize this video now."* The user doesn't know or care about the
+internal pipeline state (rate-limited vs. manual-queue); two differently-labelled, differently-
+styled buttons leak that state machine into the UI as a choice. Also: a **no-captions video
+(`TranscriptStatus == "none"`) currently falls into the `else` branch and wrongly shows a
+"Summarize" button** that, if clicked, tries and fails — there are no captions to fetch. That's
+the confusing dead-end to remove.
+
+In normal use the maintainer is in **auto mode**, so these buttons are *exceptions*, not the main
+path — videos summarize themselves. So the card should be **status-first**: the state is what the
+user reads constantly; the manual nudge is a small, quiet affordance for impatience, not a
+prominent call-to-action.
+
+## The honest per-state card model (footer of `VideoCard`)
+
+Restructure the footer branch in `VideoCard` (in `internal/web/views.templ`) to these states.
+The branch ORDER matters (summarized first, then terminal/no-action states, then actionable):
+
+1. **Summarized** — preview + provider chip + fallback badge + actions. **No button.** (unchanged)
+2. **No captions** (`r.TranscriptStatus == "none"`) — **NEW branch.** Quiet status text, e.g.
+   `No transcript available` (use a muted `.card-state`/`.chip-retry`-style treatment, NOT a
+   button). This is a terminal honest dead-end — the user can do nothing, so offer nothing.
+3. **Queued / requested** (`r.SummarizeRequested`) — "Queued · waiting for the next run". **No
+   button.** (unchanged)
+4. **Rate-limited** (`r.TranscriptStatus == "rate_limited"`) — quiet status (keep the
+   "fetching soon" sense) + a **quiet "Summarize now"** button POSTing to `retryNowURL` (clears
+   backoff then processes). Same quiet style as state 5.
+5. **Pending** (else — discovered, not yet attempted) — quiet "Not summarized" + a **quiet
+   "Summarize now"** button POSTing to `summarizeURL` (flips the queue flag then processes).
+
+## Unify the verb and the style
+- **One label everywhere a manual nudge is offered: "Summarize now"** (states 4 and 5). Drop the
+  "Try now" wording entirely.
+- **One quiet style** for both: use the understated `.btn-retry` pattern (small, pill, outline,
+  transparent bg) — NOT `.btn-secondary`/`.btn` (heavier). Rename the CSS class to something
+  state-neutral (e.g. `.btn-quiet` or `.btn-summarize-now`) so it no longer reads as
+  "retry"-specific; keep the same visual. The point: the nudge is subtle, status is primary.
+- Keep both `<form>`s posting to their respective existing handler URLs
+  (`retryNowURL` for rate-limited, `summarizeURL` for pending) with the existing HTMX
+  attributes (`hx-post`, `hx-target=#video-{id}`, `hx-swap=outerHTML`) — only the button
+  label/class change. The backend side-effect difference (clear-backoff vs. set-flag) stays
+  invisible to the user, which is correct.
+- Drop the engineer-facing `title="Fetch transcript now through the shared rate gate"` tooltip;
+  if a hint is wanted, make it user-facing ("Summarize this one now").
+
+## Quietness check (the design intent)
+The summary content and the per-state *status* are the card's primary information. The "Summarize
+now" button is a minor affordance. Do not make it a prominent solid-accent CTA — it must read as
+"you can nudge this if you're impatient", not "action required". Status text uses muted styling;
+the button uses the quiet outline style.
+
+## Tests
+- `videocard_internal_test.go` (exists): assert each of the 5 states renders the expected
+  footer — summarized (no button), no-captions (status, NO button, no `summarize`/`retry-now`
+  URL present), queued (no button), rate-limited ("Summarize now" → retry-now URL), pending
+  ("Summarize now" → summarize URL). The key new assertion: **a `none`-status video renders no
+  action button and no POST URL.**
+- Assert the label string "Try now" no longer appears anywhere in rendered output.

-was not modified (ADR-003).
+| **Invite onboarding** | **Removed from Tapir (ADR-019).** Invites are owned by the IdP (Authentik) now, not Tapir — the Dex local-password provisioning path (`tapir invite` CLI, `/invite/{token}` web flow, `internal/adapters/dex`) was deleted when the homelab migrated Dex→Authentik (infra ADR-0001). A new user is invited via Authentik's invite flow, logs into Tapir via OIDC, and is captured by the existing `/register` (display-name) gate. | Onboarding belongs to the identity provider; keeps Tapir out of the shared identity provider's write path. | ADR-019; infra ADR-0001 |
+| **Summarized-only filter** | `?summarized=1` query param on the list view. When set, only videos with a completed summary (`SummaryRow.Summarized = true`) are shown. Rendered as a "Summarized only" checkbox in the filter form. Summarized videos also sort to the top of the unfiltered list (`ORDER BY (s.id IS NOT NULL) DESC, seen_at DESC`). | Lets users focus on videos that are ready to read; newly landing summaries are visible at the top without filtering. | `internal/web/view.go` (`Filter.OnlySummarized`, `ListVideos` ORDER BY) |
+| **"Summarize now" foreground path** | Unified quiet nudge button on actionable non-summarized cards. Five explicit card states — (1) summarized: chip + no button; (2) no captions (`transcript_status = 'none'`): "No transcript available", no button; (3) queued: "Queued" chip, no button; (4) rate-limited: "Fetching soon…" + "Summarize now" → `POST /v/{id}/retry-now` (clears `rate_limited_at`, triggers engine); (5) pending: "Not summarized" + "Summarize now" → `POST /v/{id}/summarize` (queues + triggers engine). One verb, one style (`.btn-quiet`); backend difference invisible to user. Both handlers call `ProcessVideo` through `globalFetchGate`. Rate gate respected, not bypassed — this is onboarding prioritisation. | Fast onboarding value; honest dead-end for no-captions videos (no button that fails). | `internal/web/handlers.go` (`handleRetryNow`, `handleRequestSummarize`); `internal/web/views.templ` (`VideoCard`) |
+| **Pipeline stats bar** | A one-line status bar above the video list: `N summarized · M fetching soon · K no captions`. Computed from the unfiltered row set; hidden when all videos are summarized. Gives the user a clear read on pipeline state without any interaction. | Replaces the "why is nothing happening?" confusion when most videos are pending or rate-limited. | `internal/web/view.go` (`PipelineStats`, `pipelineStats`) |
+| **Unavailable channels (account page)** | The `/account` page shows a "Unavailable channels" section when any channels returned HTTP 404 on the last discovery pass. Lists channel name, an "unavailable" badge, and the first-seen date. Data sourced from the `channel_errors` table (migration 013). | Surfaces silent failures so users know why some subscribed channels produce no new videos. | migration 013; `internal/web/account.go`; `internal/adapters/youtube/youtube.go` (`domain.ErrChannelUnavailable`) |
+| **Recency window + sparse-state honesty (ADR-020)** | Supersedes the copy/sort in the rows above. Auto-summarize is bounded to videos published within `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW` (~7d); older un-summarized videos collapse behind a single "Show N older videos — summarize on demand" disclosure, and caption-less videos collapse to a one-line count (not N cards). List order is now `summarized-first, published_at DESC NULLS LAST`. Copy reframed for honest scarcity: pipeline bar reads "N ready · M in queue · K no captions" (no "fetching soon"); a gradual-fill note explains the rate limit; the nudge verb is "Summarize" (not "Summarize now"); the queued card says "summarizing shortly"; the empty-connected state drops the impossible `tapir run` instruction. Detail leads with Takeaways. Filters slimmed (no date pickers; hidden when empty); watched/skipped segmented; back link on detail; empty terms checkbox removed. | Make the sparse reality legible and honest instead of implying abundance/imminence; bound auto load so the back-catalogue doesn't re-drive the caption gate.

+# Tapir — Heuristic Review (Stage-0, sparse + recency-bounded)
+
+_Findings document, not a build spec. The maintainer filters; a spec follows separately.
+Reviewed against `VISION.md` (Stage-0 gate), `docs/ui-spec.md`, `internal/web/views.templ` +
+`view.go`, the prior `UX-REVIEW.md` pass, and the current screenshots. Written for the product
+**as it actually is**: ~283 discovered, ~15 summarized, ~256 in queue behind a respected per-IP
+caption rate limit, ~12 no-captions; single-user (maintainer) with friends pending; recency-
+bounded auto-summarize about to ship (auto = recent ~7d, older browsable + manual on demand)._
+
+## Reviewer stance
+
+The Stage-0 gate is **return usage**. So every finding is judged by one question: does this make
+the maintainer (or a friend) come back to an honestly-sparse feed? The visual layer is already
+decent — dark mode, cards, the constrained reader were all fixed in the prior pass. The open
+problems are **expectation-setting, honesty-of-scale, and the recency feed** — not pixels.
+
+**The single biggest risk:** a new user connects, sees `15 summarized · 256 fetching soon`,
+nothing visibly moves, and never returns. The whole gate dies at that moment. Most P0s below
+attack that one moment.
+
+## Tagging
+
+- **`[NOW]`** — improves the product as it is today (sparse, recency-bounded, single-user). Ships
+  in the upcoming bundle.
+- **`[LATER]`** — improves the product we hope it becomes (abundance, engagement, multiple users).
+  Valuable but premature until real usage validates the core loop.
+
+Severity: 🔴 breaks the core loop · 🟠 hurts it · 🟡 noticeable · 🔵 polish.
+
+---
+
+## P0 — fix before/with the recency ship
+
+### 1. 🔴 Empty-connected state tells the user to run a CLI command they can't run — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** After connecting YouTube, the empty list says: *"Run `tapir run` to discover your
+subscriptions."* A friend on the web has no shell. And post-ADR-018 discovery is an in-process
+scheduled loop — so the instruction is wrong *even for the maintainer*. It is the first thing a
+newly-onboarded user sees, and it is an impossible, stale instruction.
+**Principle.** Match between system and the real world; help users recognize, not be blocked
+(Nielsen #1, #2, #9).
+**Proposal.** Replace with a passive, honest "we're working" state: *"Your account is connected.
+Tapir is finding your subscriptions and fetching captions — summaries appear here gradually. Check
+back later."* No command. No imperative the user can't satisfy.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `summaryList` → `.empty-connected`.
+
+### 2. 🔴 No expectation set for *gradual* fill — the return loop breaks at the cliff — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Captions are rate-limited by design; the backlog trickles over days. Nothing tells
+the user this. A first visit shows few/no summaries and no "come back" framing. The Stage-0 gate
+is literally about returns, and the product never asks for one or explains why patience is
+warranted.
+**Principle.** Visibility of system status (#1). And: the gate can't be cleared if the UX doesn't
+survive first contact.
+**Proposal.** One honest sentence near the pipeline bar / empty state: *"Tapir fetches captions
+slowly on purpose, to respect YouTube's limits. New summaries land gradually — usually best to
+check back tomorrow."* Turns confusing emptiness into intentional design. Highest-leverage change
+in the review.
+
+### 3. 🟠 "256 fetching soon" overstates imminence — a lie of scale — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** The pipeline bar and rate-limited cards both say "fetching soon." For 256 items
+behind a per-IP throttle, "soon" is false — they trickle over days/weeks. Exactly the abundance-
+implying language the mandate forbids, inverted: it makes the *queue* look imminent.
+**Principle.** Honesty of scarcity (project mandate); #1.
+**Proposal.** Relabel by scale. Bar: `15 ready · 256 in queue · 12 no captions`. Card state:
+"In queue" / "Waiting its turn", not "Fetching soon…". Reserve "soon" for items actually next.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `pipelineBar`; card State 4.
+
+### 4. 🟠 Recency boundary is invisible in the feed — `[NOW, ships with recency]`
+**Problem.** Once auto-summarize is bounded to ~7d, a 6-month-old pending video and a 2-day-old
+pending video render identically ("Not summarized" + button). But only one is in the auto path;
+the other will *never* process unless clicked. The user can't tell "be patient, this is coming"
+from "this is yours to trigger or ignore."
+**Principle.** Visibility of system status; predictability (#1).
+**Proposal.** Bucket the list into two sections: **Recent** (auto, will fill itself) and
+**Older — browse / summarize on demand**. Card status language should encode *which side of the
+line it's on*, not the pipeline internals. Central IA decision of the recency change.
+
+### 5. 🟠 The un-summarized mass buries the ~15 readable summaries — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** ~268 of 283 cards are not readable (pending / queued / no-captions). Summarized-first
+ordering helps, but the page is still 95% noise below the fold. "Attention is the scarce resource"
+is the product's own principle — and the default view violates it.
+**Principle.** Aesthetic/minimalist design; signal-to-noise (#8).
+**Proposal.** Default view = readable summaries + the Recent bucket. Collapse the older
+un-summarized mass behind *"Show 256 older un-summarized videos."* Collapse the 12 no-caption
+videos into a single line: *"12 videos have no captions"* (terminal, never readable — they don't
+deserve 12 full cards).
+
+---
+
+## P1 — high, near-term
+
+### 6. 🟠 "Summarize now" overpromises against the rate gate — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Button says "Summarize now" (title: "Summarize this one now"). Backend queues it
+behind the shared per-IP gate. Click 10 older videos and they all sit at "Fetching soon…". The
+verb sells immediacy the system can't honor.
+**Principle.** Honesty; match system/reality (#1).
+**Proposal.** Drop "now" → "Summarize". On click the card should honestly become "Queued" (it
+already can). Optionally show queue position once the queue is real. Don't engineer the gate
+harder — just stop the verb from lying.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` card States 4 & 5; `handlers.go` `handleRetryNow`,
+`handleRequestSummarize`.
+
+### 7. 🟠 Welcome-page copy is stale and misleading post-ADR-019 — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Landing sub-copy: *"If you have an invite link, it will set up your account
+automatically."* Invites moved to Authentik (ADR-019); Tapir no longer handles invite links. The
+"Get Started" button goes straight to OIDC. The copy promises a flow that no longer exists.
+**Principle.** Match between system and reality (#2); honesty.
+**Proposal.** Rewrite: *"Tapir is invite-only right now. If you've been invited, sign in below."*
+Single CTA. Also set the gradual-fill expectation here (ties to #2) so it lands before the wall,
+not after.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `WelcomePage` → `.welcome-sub`.
+
+### 8. 🟡 "Queued · waiting for the next run" leaks system jargon — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** "the next run" exposes the discovery-loop concept; a user doesn't know what a "run"
+is.
+**Principle.** Speak the user's language (#2).
+**Proposal.** "Queued — summarizing shortly." Hide the scheduler.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` card State 3.
+
+### 9. 🟡 Filters render before there's anything to filter — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** The fresh/empty state shows the full Channel/From/To/Filter bar *above* "Connect
+YouTube." Power tooling stacked on top of the one action that matters.
+**Principle.** Progressive disclosure; minimalist design (#8).
+**Proposal.** Hide the filter bar when there are 0 rows (and arguably below ~20). Show the connect
+CTA alone.
+**Evidence.** `fixes/03-empty-fresh.png`; `ListPage` renders `filterForm` unconditionally.
+
+### 10. 🟡 Date-range filters are dead weight at this scale — `[NOW]` demote / `[LATER]` rebuild
+**Problem.** From/To date pickers + a free-text exact-match Channel field are corpus-scale tools.
+With 15 summaries they're noise; channel-as-freetext is unguessable. (Confirm the prior review's
+#7 is resolved — that `Channel` shows a real channel name, not the `provider` string; seeded
+screenshots suggest it is, live data may differ.)
+**Principle.** Match tool to task; minimalist design.
+**Proposal.** `[NOW]`: reduce to the "Summarized only" toggle (+ maybe channel chips derived from
+present rows). Drop date pickers until the corpus justifies them. `[LATER]`: real channel facets +
+search when there's volume.
+
+---
+
+## P2 — reading experience & polish
+
+### 11. 🟡 Detail leads with Summary; the attention-saving payload (Takeaways) is last — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Product promise is "decide what's worth your time." The element that answers that —
+Takeaways / verdict — sits at the bottom. The user reads a full summary to reach the point.
+**Principle.** Lead with the user's actual job-to-be-done.
+**Proposal.** Reorder or add a one-line TL;DR/verdict at top. Takeaways → Highlights → Summary, or
+a "Worth watching?" lede. Data already exists; a reorder, not new machinery.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `DetailPage`.
+
+### 12. 🔵 No "back to Summaries" on detail — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Only the brand returns home, losing any filter context.
+**Proposal.** Explicit "← Summaries" link on the detail page.
+
+### 13. 🔵 Auto/manual toggle copy will be wrong after recency — `[NOW, with recency]`
+**Problem.** Account copy: *"Automatic summarizes every new video as it is discovered."* Becomes
+false once auto is bounded to ~7d.
+**Proposal.** *"Automatic summarizes new videos from the last ~7 days. Older videos stay
+browsable — summarize them on demand."*
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `AccountPage` summarization section.
+
+### 14. 🔵 Register step asks acceptance of nonexistent terms — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** "I accept the terms of use" — no terms linked. For a friends-only tool, ceremony
+accepting nothing.
+**Proposal.** Either link real terms or drop the checkbox at this stage.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `RegisterPage`.
+
+### 15. 🔵 watched/skipped mutual exclusivity unsignaled — `[NOW]` low
+**Problem.** Three independent-looking buttons; watched↔skipped are exclusive (carryover from
+prior review #14).
+**Proposal.** Segmented control for watched/skipped; keep Saved separate.

+
+Pipeline-bar concept, the honest "No transcript available" terminal state, the queued/waiting
+spinner instead of a fake-imminent one, the Unavailable-channels surface, the constrained-width
+reader, dark mode, the account danger-zone behind a disclosure. The honesty instincts are present
+— the P0s are about making that honesty *legible and correctly-scaled*, not adding it.
+
+## Two judgment calls to settle first
+
+1. **#4 (Recent/Older split) and #5 (collapse the older mass) are one decision viewed twice.**
+   Settle the recency-feed IA once and both fall out.
+2. **The return-nudge caution (`[LATER]` list, item 1) is the one to put in writing now** — before
+   someone "helpfully" ships an email digest to juice the gate and destroys the signal.
