Privacy Mode feature:
- Toggle in Admin > Settings enables automatic purge of download
history, session logs, and files after configurable retention period
- Default retention: 24 hours when privacy mode is on
- Configurable 1-8760 hours via number input
- When enabled, starts purge scheduler (every 30 min) if not running
- When disabled, data persists indefinitely
Admin panel consolidation:
- Removed separate 'Purge' tab — manual purge moved to Settings
- Settings tab order: Privacy Mode > Manual Purge > Welcome Message >
Output Formats > Change Password
- Toggle switch UI with accent color and smooth animation
- Retention input with left accent border and unit label
Backend:
- PurgeConfig: added privacy_mode (bool) and privacy_retention_hours
- Purge service: uses privacy_retention_hours when privacy mode active
- PUT /admin/settings: accepts privacy_mode + privacy_retention_hours
- GET /config/public: exposes privacy settings to frontend
- Runtime overrides passed to purge service via config._runtime_overrides
Admin:
- Username field autofocused on login page
- Change password section in Settings tab — current password
verification, new password + confirm, min 4 chars, updates
bcrypt hash at runtime via PUT /admin/password
- Password change updates stored credentials in admin store
Loading messages:
- Replaced 'Peeking at the URL' with: Scanning the airwaves,
Negotiating with the server, Cracking the codec, Reading
the fine print, Locking on target
Mobile responsive:
- Progress column hidden on mobile (<640px) — table fits viewport
- Action buttons compact (28px) on mobile with 2px gap
- Status badges smaller on mobile (0.625rem)
- Filter tabs scroll horizontally, Download All + Clear go
full-width below as equal-sized buttons
- min-width:0 on section containers prevents flex overflow
- download-table-wrap constrained with max-width:100%
Wireframe background:
- Canvas-based constellation animation — 45 floating nodes connected
by proximity lines, subtle pulsing glow on select nodes
- Blue primary + orange accent line colors match cyberpunk palette
- Pauses on tab hidden, respects devicePixelRatio, ~0% CPU idle
- Only renders when cyberpunk theme is active (v-if on theme)
- Replaces CSS-only diagonal lines/pulse (removed from cyberpunk.css)
Unified URL analysis:
- Merged 'Checking URL...' and 'Extracting available formats...' into
a single loading state with rotating messages: 'Peeking at the URL',
'Interrogating the server', 'Decoding the matrix', etc.
- Both fetches run in parallel via Promise.all, single spinner shown
- Phase messages rotate every 1.5s during analysis
Admin format enforcement:
- Backend PUT /admin/settings now accepts default_video_format and
default_audio_format fields with validation
- Stored in settings_overrides alongside welcome_message
- UrlInput reads admin defaults from config store — Auto label shows
'Auto (.mp3)' etc. when admin has set a default
- effectiveOutputFormat computed resolves admin default when user
selects Auto, sends the resolved format to the backend
URL preview & playlist support:
- POST /url-info endpoint extracts metadata (title, type, entry count)
- Preview box shows playlist contents before downloading (up to 10 items)
- Auto-detect audio-only sources (SoundCloud, etc) and switch to Audio mode
- Video toggle grayed out for audio-only sources
- Enable playlist downloading (noplaylist=False)
Admin panel improvements:
- Expandable session rows show per-session job list with filename, size,
status, timestamp, and source URL link
- GET /admin/sessions/{id}/jobs endpoint for session job details
- Logout now redirects to home page instead of staying on login form
- Logo in header is clickable → navigates to home
UX polish:
- Tooltips on output format chips (explains Auto vs specific formats)
- Format tooltips change based on video/audio mode
