Admins can now generate TTS audiobooks chapter-by-chapter and publish
them as standard RSS 2.0 + iTunes podcast feeds that Spotify, Apple
Podcasts, and any podcast app can subscribe to.
Backend:
- POST /api/admin/podcast — creates ai_job (kind=podcast), spawns
goroutine that generates TTS for missing chapters and writes to MinIO
- GET /podcast/{slug}.xml?voice=<id> — public RSS feed with correct
pubDate (from chapters_idx.created) and enclosure length (MinIO stat)
- GET /podcast/audio/{slug}/{n}/{voice} — public audio proxy, 302 to
presigned MinIO URL (no auth required for podcast clients)
- GET /api/admin/podcast/{slug} — list podcast jobs for a book
- Add AudioObjectSize to AudioStore interface backed by MinIO StatObject
- Populate ChapterInfo.Date from chapters_idx.created in ListChapters
UI:
- New /admin/podcast page: book + voice selector, chapter range, live
progress bars, copy-feed-URL button, cancel button, how-to instructions
- /api/admin/podcast SvelteKit proxy (injects admin Bearer token)
- Podcast link added to admin sidebar
Cleanup:
- Delete stray playwright screenshot files from repo root
- Add .playwright-mcp/ to .gitignore

The admin_nav_* message files generated by paraglide used 0-param inner
functions but called them with inputs, causing 50 svelte-check type errors.
Add _inputs = {} to each inner locale function to match the call signature.
Also adds backend/backend and backend/runner to .gitignore — binaries are
built inside Dockerfile and should never be committed.
- New MinIO bucket 'libnovel-browse' (MINIO_BUCKET_BROWSE env) for storing
self-contained HTML snapshots of novelfire browse pages
- Store interface gains SaveBrowsePage / GetBrowsePage / BrowsePageKey methods
- handleBrowse is now cache-first: serves from MinIO snapshot when available,
then fires a background triggerBrowseSnapshot goroutine to populate cache
on live-fetch (de-duplicated, 90s timeout)
- New 'save-browse' CLI subcommand to bulk-capture pages via SingleFile CLI
- Dockerfile: downloads pinned single-file-x86_64-linux binary (v2.0.83),
adds gcompat + libstdc++ to Alpine runtime for glibc compatibility
- docker-compose: adds libnovel-browse bucket init and SINGLEFILE_PATH env
- .gitignore: exclude scraper/scraper build artifact
- Add Kokoro-FastAPI TTS integration to the chapter reader UI:
- Browser-side MSE streaming with paragraph-level click-to-start
- Voice selector, speed slider, auto-next with prefetch of the next chapter
- New GET /ui/chapter-text endpoint that strips Markdown and serves plain text
- Add ranking page (novelfire /ranking scraper, WriteRanking/ReadRankingItems
in writer, GET /ranking + POST /ranking/refresh + GET /ranking/view routes)
with local-library annotation and one-click scrape buttons
- Add StrategyDirect (plain HTTP client) as a new browser strategy; the
default strategy is now 'direct' for chapter fetching and 'content'
for chapter-list URL retrieval (split via BROWSERLESS_URL_STRATEGY)
- Fix chapter numbering bug: numbers are now derived from the URL path
(/chapter-N) rather than list position, correcting newest-first ordering
- Add 'refresh <slug>' CLI sub-command to re-scrape a book from its saved
source_url without knowing the original URL
- Extend NovelScraper interface with RankingProvider (ScrapeRanking)
- Tune scraper timeouts: wait-for-selector reduced to 5 s, GotoOptions
timeout set to 60 s, content/scrape client defaults raised to 90 s
- Add cover extraction fix (figure.cover > img rather than bare img.cover)
- Add AGENTS.md and .aiignore for AI tooling context
- Add integration tests for browser client and novelfire scraper (build
tag: integration) and unit tests for chapterNumberFromURL and pagination
