fix: remove distinct background from error page status code box

Collections without an 'updated' field (books, user_sessions, user_settings,
user_library) were returning 400 because listOne always sent sort=-updated.
Changed default to empty string since we only fetch 1 record (no ordering needed).

+
+# iOS UI/UX Skill — LibNovel
+
+Load this skill whenever working on SwiftUI views in `ios/`. It defines design standards, review process for screenshots, and implementation rules.
+
+---
+
+## Screenshot Review Process
+
+When the user provides a screenshot of the app:
+
+1. **Analyze first** — identify specific UI/UX issues across these categories:
+   - Visual hierarchy and spacing
+   - Typography (size, weight, contrast)
+   - Color and material usage
+   - Animation and interactivity gaps
+   - Accessibility problems
+   - Deprecated or non-native patterns
+2. **Present a numbered list** of suggested improvements with brief rationale for each.
+3. **Ask for confirmation** before writing any code: "Should I apply all of these, or only specific ones?"
+4. Apply only what the user confirms.
+
+---
+
+## Design System
+
+### Colors & Materials
+- **Accent**: `Color.amber` (project-defined). Use for active state, selection indicators, progress fills, and CTAs.
+- **Backgrounds**: Prefer `.regularMaterial`, `.ultraThinMaterial`, or `.thinMaterial` over hard-coded `Color.black.opacity(x)` or `Color(.systemBackground)`.
+- **Dark overlays** (e.g. full-screen players): Use `KFImage` blurred background + `Color.black.opacity(0.5–0.6)` overlay. Never use a flat solid black background.
+- **Semantic colors**: Use `.primary`, `.secondary`, `.tertiary` foreground styles. Avoid hard-coded `Color.white` except on dark material contexts (full-screen player).
+- **No hardcoded color literals** — use `Color+App.swift` extensions or system semantic colors.
+
+### Typography
+- Use the SF Pro system font via `.font(.title)`, `.font(.body)`, etc. — never hardcode font names except for intentional stylistic accents (e.g. "Snell Roundhand" for voice watermark).
+- Apply `.fontWeight()` and `.fontDesign()` modifiers rather than custom font families.
+- Support Dynamic Type — never hardcode a fixed font size as the sole option without a `.minimumScaleFactor` or system font size modifier.
+- Hierarchy: title3.bold for primary labels, subheadline for secondary, caption/caption2 for metadata.
+
+### Spacing & Layout
+- Minimum touch target: **44×44 pt**. Use `.frame(minWidth: 44, minHeight: 44)` or `.contentShape(Rectangle())` on small icons.
+- Prefer 16–20 pt horizontal padding on full-width containers; 12 pt for compact inner elements.
+- Use `VStack(spacing:)` and `HStack(spacing:)` explicitly — never rely on default spacing for production UI.
+- Corner radii: 12–14 pt for cards/chips, 10 pt for small badges, 20–24 pt for large cover art.
+
+---
+
+## Animation Rules
+
+### Spring Animations (default for all interactive transitions)
+- Use `.spring(response:dampingFraction:)` for state-driven layout changes, selection feedback, and appear/disappear transitions.
+- Recommended defaults:
+  - Interactive elements: `response: 0.3, dampingFraction: 0.7`
+  - Entrance animations: `response: 0.45–0.5, dampingFraction: 0.7`
+  - Quick snappy feedback: `response: 0.2, dampingFraction: 0.6`
+- Reserve `.easeInOut` only for non-interactive, ambient animations (e.g. opacity pulses, generating overlays).
+
+### SF Symbol Transitions
+- Always use `contentTransition(.symbolEffect(.replace.downUp))` when a symbol name changes based on state (play/pause, checkmark/circle, etc.).
+- Use `.symbolEffect(.variableColor.cumulative)` for continuous animations (waveform, loading indicators).
+- Use `.symbolEffect(.bounce)` for one-shot entrance emphasis (e.g. completion checkmark appearing).
+- Use `.symbolEffect(.pulse)` for error/warning states that need attention.
+
+### Repeating Animations
+- Use `phaseAnimator` for any looping animation that previously used manual `@State` + `withAnimation` chains.
+- Do not use `Timer` publishers for UI animation — prefer `phaseAnimator` or `TimelineView`.
+
+---
+
+## Haptic Feedback
+
+Add `UIImpactFeedbackGenerator` to every user-initiated interactive control:
+- `.light` — toggle switches, selection chips, secondary actions, slider drag start.
+- `.medium` — primary transport buttons (play/pause, chapter skip), significant confirmations.
+- `.heavy` — destructive actions (only if no confirmation dialog).
+
+Pattern:
+```swift
+Button {
+    UIImpactFeedbackGenerator(style: .light).impactOccurred()
+    // action
+} label: { ... }
+```
+
+Do **not** add haptics to:
+- Programmatic state changes not directly triggered by a tap.
+- Buttons inside `List` rows that already use swipe actions.
+- Scroll events.
+
+---
+
+## iOS 17+ API Usage
+
+Flag and replace any of the following deprecated patterns:
+
+| Deprecated | Replace with |
+|---|---|
+| `NavigationView` | `NavigationStack` |
+| `@StateObject` / `ObservableObject` (new types only) | `@Observable` macro |
+| `DispatchQueue.main.async` | `await MainActor.run` or `@MainActor` |
+| Manual `@State` animation chains for repeating loops | `phaseAnimator` |
+| `.animation(_:)` without `value:` | `.animation(_:value:)` |
+| `AnyView` wrapping for conditional content | `@ViewBuilder` + `Group` |
+
+Do **not** refactor existing `ObservableObject` types to `@Observable` unless explicitly asked — only apply `@Observable` to new types.
+
+---
+
+## Accessibility
+
+Every view must:
+- Support VoiceOver: add `.accessibilityLabel()` to icon-only buttons and image views.
+- Support Dynamic Type: test that text doesn't truncate at xxxLarge without a layout adjustment.
+- Meet contrast ratio: text on tinted backgrounds must be legible — avoid `.opacity(0.25)` or lower for any user-readable text.
+- Touch targets ≥ 44pt (see Spacing above).
+- Interactive controls must have `.accessibilityAddTraits(.isButton)` if not using `Button`.
+- Do not rely solely on color to convey state — pair color with icon or label.
+
+---
+
+## Performance
+
+- **Isolate high-frequency observers**: Any view that observes a `PlaybackProgress` (timer-tick updates) must be a separate sub-view that `@ObservedObject`-observes only the progress object — not the parent view. This prevents the entire parent from re-rendering every 0.5 seconds.
+- **Avoid `id()` overuse**: Only use `.id()` to force view recreation when necessary (e.g. background image on track change). Prefer `onChange(of:)` for side effects.
+- **Lazy containers**: Use `LazyVStack` / `LazyHStack` inside `ScrollView` for lists of 20+ items. `List` is inherently lazy and does not need this.
+- **Image loading**: Always use `KFImage` (Kingfisher) with `.placeholder` for remote images. Never use `AsyncImage` for cover art — it has no disk cache.
+- **Avoid `AnyView`**: It breaks structural identity and hurts diffing. Use `@ViewBuilder` or `Group { }` instead.
+
+---
+
+## Offline & Error States
+
+Every view that makes network calls must:
+1. Wrap the body in a `VStack` with `OfflineBanner` at the top, gated on `networkMonitor.isConnected`.
+2. Suppress network errors silently when offline via `ErrorAlertModifier` — do not show an alert when the device is offline.
+3. Gate `.task` / `.onAppear` network calls: `guard networkMonitor.isConnected else { return }`.
+4. Show a non-blocking inline empty state (not a full-screen error) for failed loads when online.
+
+---
+
+## Component Checklist (before submitting any view change)
+
+- [ ] All interactive elements ≥ 44pt touch target
+- [ ] SF Symbol state changes use `contentTransition(.symbolEffect(...))`
+- [ ] State-driven layout transitions use `.spring(response:dampingFraction:)`
+- [ ] Tappable controls have haptic feedback
+- [ ] No `NavigationView`, no `DispatchQueue.main.async`, no `.animation(_:)` without `value:`
+- [ ] High-frequency observers are isolated sub-views
+- [ ] Offline state handled with `OfflineBanner` + `NetworkMonitor`
+- [ ] VoiceOver labels on icon-only buttons
+- [ ] No hardcoded `Color.black` / `Color.white` / `Color(.systemBackground)` where a material applies

-Go web scraper for novelfire.net with TTS support via Kokoro-FastAPI.
-
-## Architecture
-
-```
-scraper/
-├── cmd/scraper/main.go           # Entry point: 'run' (one-shot) and 'serve' (HTTP server)
-├── internal/
-│   ├── orchestrator/orchestrator.go  # Coordinates catalogue walk, metadata extraction, chapter scraping
-│   ├── browser/                       # Browser client (content/scrape/cdp strategies) via Browserless
-│   ├── novelfire/scraper.go          # novelfire.net specific scraping logic
-│   ├── server/server.go              # HTTP API (POST /scrape, POST /scrape/book)
-│   ├── writer/writer.go              # File writer (metadata.yaml, chapter .md files)
-│   └── scraper/interfaces.go         # NovelScraper interface definition
-└── static/books/                     # Output directory for scraped content
-```
-
-## Key Concepts
-
-- **Orchestrator**: Manages concurrency - catalogue streaming → per-book metadata goroutines → chapter worker pool
-- **Browser Client**: 3 strategies (content/scrape/cdp) via Browserless Chrome container
-- **Writer**: Writes metadata.yaml and chapter markdown files to `static/books/{slug}/vol-0/1-50/`
-- **Server**: HTTP API with async scrape jobs, UI for browsing books/chapters, chapter-text endpoint for TTS
-
-## Commands
-
-```bash
-# Build
-cd scraper && go build -o bin/scraper ./cmd/scraper
-
-# One-shot scrape (full catalogue)
-./bin/scraper run
-
-# Single book
-./bin/scraper run --url https://novelfire.net/book/xxx
-
-# HTTP server
-./bin/scraper serve
-
-# Tests
-cd scraper && go test ./...
-```
-
-## Environment Variables
-
-| Variable | Description | Default |
-|----------|-------------|---------|
-| BROWSERLESS_URL | Browserless Chrome endpoint | http://localhost:3030 |
-| BROWSERLESS_STRATEGY | content \| scrape \| cdp | content |
-| SCRAPER_WORKERS | Chapter goroutines | NumCPU |
-| SCRAPER_STATIC_ROOT | Output directory | ./static/books |
-| SCRAPER_HTTP_ADDR | HTTP listen address | :8080 |
-| KOKORO_URL | Kokoro TTS endpoint | http://localhost:8880 |
-| KOKORO_VOICE | Default TTS voice | af_bella |
-| LOG_LEVEL | debug \| info \| warn \| error | info |
-
-## Docker
-
-```bash
-docker-compose up -d  # Starts browserless, kokoro, scraper
-```
-
-## Code Patterns
-
-- Uses `log/slog` for structured logging
-- Context-based cancellation throughout
-- Worker pool pattern in orchestrator (channel + goroutines)
-- Mutex for single async job (409 on concurrent scrape requests)
-
-## AI Context Tips
-
-- Primary files to modify: `orchestrator.go`, `server.go`, `scraper.go`, `browser/*.go`
-- To add new source: implement `NovelScraper` interface from `internal/scraper/interfaces.go`
-- Skip `static/` directory - generated content, not source
-
-## Speed Up AI Sessions (Optional)
-
-For faster AI context loading, use **Context7** (free, local indexing):
-
-```bash
-# Install and index once
-npx @context7/cli@latest index --path . --ignore .aiignore
-
-# After first run, AI tools will query the index instead of re-scanning files
-```

+// Design:
+//   - Runs on its own ticker (CatalogueRefreshInterval, default 24h) inside Run().
+//   - Also fires once on startup (unless SkipInitialCatalogueRefresh is set).
+//   - ScrapeCatalogue streams CatalogueEntry values over a channel — already has
+//     its own inter-page jitter + retryGet (see scraper.go).
+//   - Per-book: only metadata is scraped here (not chapters). Chapters are scraped
+//     on-demand when a user opens a book or via an explicit scrape task.
+//   - Between each metadata request a configurable base delay plus up to 50%
+//     random jitter is applied (CatalogueRequestDelay, default 2s). This keeps
+//     the request rate well below novelfire.net's rate limit even for ~15k books.
+//   - ScrapeMetadata itself uses retryGet with 429-aware exponential backoff
+//     (up to 9 attempts), so transient rate limits are handled gracefully.
+//   - Cover images are fetched and stored in MinIO on first sight; subsequent
+//     refreshes skip covers that already exist (CoverExists check).
+//   - Books already present in Meilisearch are skipped entirely (fast path).
+//   - Errors for individual books are logged and skipped; the loop never aborts.

+# LibNovel Scraper Rewrite — Project Todos
+
+## Overview
+
+Split the monolithic scraper into two separate binaries inside the same Go module:
+
+| Binary | Command | Location | Responsibility |
+|--------|---------|----------|----------------|
+| **runner** | `cmd/runner` | Homelab | Polls remote PB for pending scrape tasks → scrapes novelfire.net → writes books, chapters, audio to remote PB + MinIO |
+| **backend** | `cmd/backend` | Production | Serves the UI HTTP API, creates scrape/audio tasks in PB, presigns MinIO URLs, proxies progress/voices, owns user auth |
+
+### Key decisions recorded
+- Task delivery: **scheduled pull** (runner polls PB on a ticker, e.g. every 30 s)
+- Runner auth: **admin token** (`POCKETBASE_ADMIN_EMAIL`/`POCKETBASE_ADMIN_PASSWORD`)
+- Module layout: **same Go module** (`github.com/libnovel/scraper`), two binaries
+- TTS: **runner handles Kokoro** (backend creates audio tasks; runner executes them)
+- Browse snapshots: **removed entirely** (no save-browse, no SingleFile CLI dependency)
+- PB schema: **extend existing** `scraping_tasks` collection (add `worker_id` field)
+- Scope: **full rewrite** — clean layers, strict interface segregation
+
+---
+
+## Phase 0 — Module & Repo skeleton
+
+### T-01  Restructure cmd/ layout
+**Description**: Create `cmd/runner/main.go` and `cmd/backend/main.go` entry points. Remove the old `cmd/scraper/` entry point (or keep temporarily as a stub). Update `go.mod` module path if needed.
+**Unit tests**: `cmd/runner/main_test.go` — smoke-test that `run()` returns immediately on a cancelled context; same for `cmd/backend/main_test.go`.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-02  Create shared `internal/config` package
+**Description**: Replace the ad-hoc `envOr()` helpers scattered in main.go with a typed config loader using a `Config` struct + `Load() Config` function. Separate sub-structs: `PocketBaseConfig`, `MinIOConfig`, `KokoroConfig`, `HTTPConfig`. Each binary calls `config.Load()`.
+**Unit tests**: `internal/config/config_test.go` — verify defaults, env override for each field, zero-value safety.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+---
+
+## Phase 1 — Core domain interfaces (interface segregation)
+
+### T-03  Define `TaskQueue` interface (`internal/taskqueue`)
+**Description**: Create a new package `internal/taskqueue` with two interfaces:
+- `Producer` — used by the **backend** to create tasks:
+  ```go
+  type Producer interface {
+      CreateScrapeTask(ctx, kind, targetURL string) (string, error)
+      CreateAudioTask(ctx, slug string, chapter int, voice string) (string, error)
+      CancelTask(ctx, id string) error
+  }
+  ```
+- `Consumer` — used by the **runner** to poll and claim tasks:
+  ```go
+  type Consumer interface {
+      ClaimNextScrapeTask(ctx context.Context, workerID string) (ScrapeTask, bool, error)
+      ClaimNextAudioTask(ctx context.Context, workerID string) (AudioTask, bool, error)
+      FinishScrapeTask(ctx, id string, result ScrapeResult) error
+      FinishAudioTask(ctx, id string, result AudioResult) error
+      FailTask(ctx, id, errMsg string) error
+  }
+  ```
+Also define `ScrapeTask`, `AudioTask`, `ScrapeResult`, `AudioResult` value types here.
+**Unit tests**: `internal/taskqueue/taskqueue_test.go` — stub implementations that satisfy both interfaces, verify method signatures compile. Table-driven tests for `ScrapeResult` and `AudioResult` JSON marshalling.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-04  Define `BookStore` interface (`internal/bookstore`)
+**Description**: Decompose the monolithic `storage.Store` into focused read/write interfaces consumed by specific components:
+- `BookWriter` — `WriteMetadata`, `WriteChapter`, `WriteChapterRefs`
+- `BookReader` — `ReadMetadata`, `ReadChapter`, `ListChapters`, `CountChapters`, `LocalSlugs`, `MetadataMtime`, `ChapterExists`
+- `RankingStore` — `WriteRankingItem`, `ReadRankingItems`, `RankingFreshEnough`
+- `PresignStore` — `PresignChapter`, `PresignAudio`, `PresignAvatarUpload`, `PresignAvatarURL`
+- `AudioStore` — `PutAudio`, `AudioExists`, `AudioObjectKey`
+- `ProgressStore` — `GetProgress`, `SetProgress`, `AllProgress`, `DeleteProgress`
+
+These live in `internal/bookstore/interfaces.go`. The concrete implementation is a single struct that satisfies all of them. The runner only gets `BookWriter + RankingStore + AudioStore`. The backend only gets `BookReader + PresignStore + ProgressStore`.
+**Unit tests**: `internal/bookstore/interfaces_test.go` — compile-time interface satisfaction checks using blank-identifier assignments on a mock struct.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-05  Rewrite `internal/scraper/interfaces.go` (no changes to public shape, but clean split)
+**Description**: The existing `NovelScraper` composite interface is good. Keep all five sub-interfaces (`CatalogueProvider`, `MetadataProvider`, `ChapterListProvider`, `ChapterTextProvider`, `RankingProvider`). Ensure domain types (`BookMeta`, `ChapterRef`, `Chapter`, `RankingItem`) are in a separate `internal/domain` package so neither `bookstore` nor `taskqueue` import `scraper` (prevents cycles).
+**Unit tests**: `internal/domain/domain_test.go` — JSON roundtrip tests for `BookMeta`, `ChapterRef`, `Chapter`, `RankingItem`.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+---
+
+## Phase 2 — Storage layer rewrite
+
+### T-06  Rewrite `internal/storage/pocketbase.go`
+**Description**: Clean rewrite of the PocketBase REST client. Must satisfy `taskqueue.Producer`, `taskqueue.Consumer`, and all `bookstore` interfaces. Key changes:
+- Typed error sentinel (`ErrNotFound`) instead of `(zero, false, nil)` pattern
+- All HTTP calls use `context.Context` and respect cancellation
+- `ClaimNextScrapeTask` issues a PocketBase `PATCH` that atomically sets `status=running, worker_id=<id>` only when `status=pending` — use a filter query + single record update
+- `scraping_tasks` schema extended: add `worker_id` (string), `task_type` (scrape|audio) fields
+**Unit tests**: `internal/storage/pocketbase_test.go` — mock HTTP server (`httptest.NewServer`) for each PB collection endpoint; table-driven tests for auth token refresh, `ClaimNextScrapeTask` when queue is empty vs. has pending task, `FinishScrapeTask` happy path, error on 4xx response.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-07  Rewrite `internal/storage/minio.go`
+**Description**: Clean rewrite of the MinIO client. Must satisfy `bookstore.AudioStore` + presign methods. Key changes:
+- `PutObject` wrapped to accept `io.Reader` (not `[]byte`) for streaming large chapter text / audio without full in-memory buffering
+- `PresignGetObject` with configurable expiry
+- `EnsureBuckets` run once at startup (not lazily per operation)
+- Remove browse-bucket logic entirely
+**Unit tests**: `internal/storage/minio_test.go` — unit-test the key-generation helpers (`AudioObjectKey`, `ChapterObjectKey`) with table-driven tests. Integration tests remain in `_integration_test.go` with build tag.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-08  Rewrite `internal/storage/hybrid.go` → `internal/storage/store.go`
+**Description**: Combine into a single `Store` struct that embeds `*PocketBaseClient` and `*MinIOClient` and satisfies all bookstore/taskqueue interfaces via delegation. Remove the separate `hybrid.go` file. `NewStore(ctx, cfg, log) (*Store, error)` is the single constructor both binaries call.
+**Unit tests**: `internal/storage/store_test.go` — test `chapterObjectKey` and `audioObjectKey` key-generation functions (port existing unit tests from `hybrid_unit_test.go`).
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+---
+
+## Phase 3 — Scraper layer rewrite
+
+### T-09  Rewrite `internal/novelfire/scraper.go`
+**Description**: Full rewrite of the novelfire scraper. Changes:
+- Accept only a single `browser.Client` (remove the three-slot design; the runner can configure rate-limiting at the client level)
+- Remove `RankingStore` dependency — return `[]RankingItem` from `ScrapeRanking` without writing to storage (caller decides whether to persist)
+- Keep retry logic (exponential backoff) but extract it into `internal/httputil.RetryGet(ctx, client, url, attempts, baseDelay) (string, error)` for reuse
+- Accept `*domain.BookMeta` directly, not `scraper.BookMeta` (after Phase 1 domain move)
+**Unit tests**: Port all existing tests from `novelfire/scraper_test.go` and `novelfire/ranking_test.go` to the new package layout. Add test for `RetryGet` abort on context cancellation.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-10  Rewrite `internal/orchestrator/orchestrator.go`
+**Description**: Clean rewrite. Changes:
+- Accept `taskqueue.Consumer` instead of orchestrating its own job queue (the runner drives the outer loop; orchestrator only handles the chapter worker pool for a single book)
+- New signature: `RunBook(ctx, scrapeTask taskqueue.ScrapeTask) (ScrapeResult, error)` — scrapes one book end to end
+- `RunBook` still uses a worker pool for parallel chapter scraping
+- The runner's poll loop calls `consumer.ClaimNextScrapeTask`, then `orchestrator.RunBook`, then `consumer.FinishScrapeTask`
+**Unit tests**: Port `orchestrator/orchestrator_test.go`. Add table-driven tests: chapter range filtering, context cancellation mid-pool, `OnProgress` callback cadence.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-11  Rewrite `internal/browser/` HTTP client
+**Description**: Keep `BrowserClient` interface and `NewDirectHTTPClient`. Remove all Browserless variants (no longer needed). Add proxy support via `Config.ProxyURL`. Export `Config` cleanly.
+**Unit tests**: `internal/browser/browser_test.go` — test `NewDirectHTTPClient` with a `httptest.Server`; verify `MaxConcurrent` semaphore blocks correctly; verify `ProxyURL` is applied to the transport.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+---
+
+## Phase 4 — Runner binary
+
+### T-12  Implement `internal/runner/runner.go`
+**Description**: The runner's main loop:
+```
+for {
+    select case <-ticker.C:
+        // try to claim a scrape task
+        task, ok, _ := consumer.ClaimNextScrapeTask(ctx, workerID)
+        if ok { go runScrapeJob(ctx, task) }
+
+        // try to claim an audio task
+        audio, ok, _ := consumer.ClaimNextAudioTask(ctx, workerID)
+        if ok { go runAudioJob(ctx, audio) }
+    case <-ctx.Done():
+        return
+    }
+}
+```
+`runScrapeJob` calls `orchestrator.RunBook`. `runAudioJob` calls `kokoroclient.GenerateAudio` then `store.PutAudio`.
+Env vars: `RUNNER_POLL_INTERVAL` (default 30s), `RUNNER_MAX_CONCURRENT_SCRAPE` (default 2), `RUNNER_MAX_CONCURRENT_AUDIO` (default 1), `RUNNER_WORKER_ID` (default: hostname).
+**Unit tests**: `internal/runner/runner_test.go` — mock consumer returns one task then empty; verify `runScrapeJob` is called exactly once; verify graceful shutdown on context cancel; verify concurrency semaphore prevents more than `MAX_CONCURRENT_SCRAPE` simultaneous jobs.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-13  Implement `internal/kokoro/client.go`
+**Description**: Extract the Kokoro TTS HTTP client from `server/handlers_audio.go` into its own package `internal/kokoro`. Interface:
+```go
+type Client interface {
+    GenerateAudio(ctx context.Context, text, voice string) ([]byte, error)
+    ListVoices(ctx context.Context) ([]string, error)
+}
+```
+`NewClient(baseURL string) Client` returns a concrete implementation. `GenerateAudio` calls `POST /v1/audio/speech` and returns the raw MP3 bytes. `ListVoices` calls `GET /v1/audio/voices`.
+**Unit tests**: `internal/kokoro/client_test.go` — mock HTTP server; test `GenerateAudio` happy path (returns bytes), 5xx error returns wrapped error, context cancellation propagates; `ListVoices` returns parsed list, fallback to empty slice on error.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-14  Write `cmd/runner/main.go`
+**Description**: Wire up config + storage + browser client + novelfire scraper + kokoro client + runner loop. Signal handling (SIGINT/SIGTERM → cancel context → graceful drain). Log structured startup info.
+**Unit tests**: `cmd/runner/main_test.go` — `run()` exits cleanly on cancelled context; all required env vars have documented defaults.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+---
+
+## Phase 5 — Backend binary
+
+### T-15  Define backend HTTP handler interfaces
+**Description**: Create `internal/backend/handlers.go` (not a concrete type yet — just the interface segregation scaffold). Each handler group gets its own dependency interface, e.g.:
+- `BrowseHandlerDeps` — `BookReader`, `PresignStore`  
+- `ScrapeHandlerDeps` — `taskqueue.Producer`, scrape task reader  
+- `AudioHandlerDeps` — `bookstore.AudioStore`, `taskqueue.Producer`, `kokoro.Client`  
+- `ProgressHandlerDeps` — `bookstore.ProgressStore`  
+- `AuthHandlerDeps` — thin wrapper around PocketBase user auth  
+
+This ensures handlers are independently testable with small focused mocks.
+**Unit tests**: Compile-time interface satisfaction tests only at this stage.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-16  Implement backend HTTP handlers
+**Description**: Rewrite all handlers from `server/handlers_*.go` into `internal/backend/`. Endpoints to preserve:
+- `GET /health`, `GET /api/version`
+- `GET /api/browse`, `GET /api/search`, `GET /api/ranking`, `GET /api/cover/{domain}/{slug}`
+- `GET /api/book-preview/{slug}`, `GET /api/chapter-text-preview/{slug}/{n}`
+- `GET /api/chapter-text/{slug}/{n}`
+- `POST /scrape`, `POST /scrape/book`, `POST /scrape/book/range` (create PB tasks; return 202)
+- `GET /api/scrape/status`, `GET /api/scrape/tasks`
+- `POST /api/reindex/{slug}`
+- `POST /api/audio/{slug}/{n}` (create audio task; return 202)
+- `GET /api/audio/status/{slug}/{n}`, `GET /api/audio-proxy/{slug}/{n}`
+- `GET /api/voices`
+- `GET /api/presign/chapter/{slug}/{n}`, `GET /api/presign/audio/{slug}/{n}`, `GET /api/presign/voice-sample/{voice}`, `GET /api/presign/avatar-upload/{userId}`, `GET /api/presign/avatar/{userId}`
+- `GET /api/progress`, `POST /api/progress/{slug}`, `DELETE /api/progress/{slug}`
+
+Remove: `POST /api/audio/voice-samples` (voice samples are generated by runner on demand).
+**Unit tests**: `internal/backend/handlers_test.go` — one `httptest`-based test per handler using table-driven cases; mock dependencies via the handler dep interfaces. Focus: correct status codes, JSON shape, error propagation.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-17  Implement `internal/backend/server.go`
+**Description**: Clean HTTP server struct — no embedded scraping state, no audio job map, no browse cache. Dependencies injected via constructor. Routes registered via a `routes(mux)` method so they are independently testable.
+**Unit tests**: `internal/backend/server_test.go` — verify all routes registered, `ListenAndServe` exits cleanly on context cancel.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-18  Write `cmd/backend/main.go`
+**Description**: Wire up config + storage + kokoro client + backend server. Signal handling. Structured startup logging.
+**Unit tests**: `cmd/backend/main_test.go` — same smoke tests as runner.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+---
+
+## Phase 6 — Cleanup & cross-cutting
+
+### T-19  Port and extend unit tests
+**Description**: Ensure all existing passing unit tests (`htmlutil`, `novelfire`, `orchestrator`, `storage` unit tests) are ported / updated for the new package layout. Remove integration-test stubs that are no longer relevant.
+**Unit tests**: All tests under `internal/` must pass with `go test ./... -short`.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-20  Update `go.mod` and dependencies
+**Description**: Remove unused dependencies (e.g. Browserless-related). Verify `go mod tidy` produces a clean output. Update `Dockerfile` to build both `runner` and `backend` binaries. Update `docker-compose.yml` to run both services.
+**Unit tests**: `go build ./...` and `go vet ./...` pass cleanly.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-21  Update `AGENTS.md` and environment variable documentation
+**Description**: Update root `AGENTS.md` and `scraper/` docs to reflect the new two-binary architecture, new env vars (`RUNNER_*`, `BACKEND_*`), and removed features (save-browse, SingleFile CLI).
+**Unit tests**: N/A — documentation only.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+### T-22  Write `internal/httputil` package
+**Description**: Extract shared HTTP helpers reused by both binaries:
+- `RetryGet(ctx, client, url, maxAttempts int, baseDelay time.Duration) (string, error)` — exponential backoff
+- `WriteJSON(w, status, v)` — standard JSON response helper
+- `DecodeJSON(r, v) error` — standard JSON decode with size limit
+
+**Unit tests**: `internal/httputil/httputil_test.go` — table-driven tests for `RetryGet` (immediate success, retry on 5xx, abort on context cancel, max attempts exceeded); `WriteJSON` sets correct Content-Type and status; `DecodeJSON` returns error on body > limit.
+**Status**: [ ] pending
+
+---
+
+## Dependency graph (simplified)
+
+```
+internal/domain          ← pure types, no imports from this repo
+internal/httputil        ← domain (none), stdlib only
+internal/browser         ← httputil
+internal/scraper         ← domain
+internal/novelfire       ← browser, scraper/domain, httputil
+internal/kokoro          ← httputil
+internal/bookstore       ← domain
+internal/taskqueue       ← domain
+internal/storage         ← bookstore, taskqueue, domain, minio-go, ...
+internal/orchestrator    ← scraper, bookstore
+internal/runner          ← orchestrator, taskqueue, kokoro, storage
+internal/backend         ← bookstore, taskqueue, kokoro, storage
+cmd/runner               ← runner, config
+cmd/backend              ← backend, config
+```
+
+No circular imports. Runner and backend never import each other.

+# API Endpoint Reference
+
+> **Routing ownership map**: see [`docs/d2/api-routing.svg`](d2/api-routing.svg) (source: [`docs/d2/api-routing.d2`](d2/api-routing.d2)) for a visual overview of which paths Caddy sends to the backend directly vs. through SvelteKit, with auth levels colour-coded.
+
+All traffic enters through **Caddy :443**. Caddy routes a subset of paths directly to the Go backend (bypassing SvelteKit); everything else goes to SvelteKit, which enforces auth before proxying onward.
+
+## Health / Version
+
+| Method | Path | Auth | Description |
+|--------|------|------|-------------|
+| `GET` | `/health` | — | Liveness probe. Returns `{"ok":true}`. |
+| `GET` | `/api/version` | — | Build version + commit hash. |
+
+## Scrape Jobs (admin)
+
+| Method | Path | Auth | Description |
+|--------|------|------|-------------|
+| `POST` | `/scrape` | admin | Enqueue full catalogue scrape. |
+| `POST` | `/scrape/book` | admin | Enqueue single-book scrape `{url}`. |
+| `POST` | `/scrape/book/range` | admin | Enqueue range scrape `{url, from, to?}`. |
+| `GET` | `/api/scrape/status` | admin | Current job status. |
+| `GET` | `/api/scrape/tasks` | admin | All scrape task records. |
+| `POST` | `/api/cancel-task/{id}` | admin | Cancel a pending task. |
+
+## Browse / Catalogue
+
+| Method | Path | Auth | Description |
+|--------|------|------|-------------|
+| `GET` | `/api/browse` | — | Live novelfire.net browse (MinIO page-1 cache). Legacy — used by save-browse subcommand. |
+| `GET` | `/api/catalogue` | — | **Primary browse endpoint.** Meilisearch-backed, paginated. Params: `q`, `page`, `limit`, `genre`, `status`, `sort` (`popular`\|`new`\|`update`\|`rank`\|`top-rated`). Falls back to empty when Meilisearch is not configured. |
+| `GET` | `/api/search` | — | Full-text search: Meilisearch local results merged with live novelfire.net remote results. Param: `q` (≥ 2 chars). Used by iOS app. |
+| `GET` | `/api/ranking` | — | Top-ranked novels from PocketBase. |
+| `GET` | `/api/cover/{domain}/{slug}` | — | Proxy cover image from MinIO (redirect to presigned URL). |
+
+## Book / Chapter Content
+
+| Method | Path | Auth | Description |
+|--------|------|------|-------------|
+| `GET` | `/api/book-preview/{slug}` | — | Returns stored metadata + chapter list, or enqueues a scrape task (202) if unknown. |
+| `GET` | `/api/chapter-text/{slug}/{n}` | — | Chapter content as plain text (markdown stripped). |
+| `GET` | `/api/chapter-markdown/{slug}/{n}` | — | Chapter content as raw markdown from MinIO. |
+| `POST` | `/api/reindex/{slug}` | admin | Rebuild `chapters_idx` from MinIO objects. |
+
+## Audio
+
+| Method | Path | Auth | Description |
+|--------|------|------|-------------|
+| `POST` | `/api/audio/{slug}/{n}` | — | Trigger Kokoro TTS generation. Body: `{voice?}`. Returns `200 {status:"done"}` if cached, `202 {task_id, status}` if enqueued. |
+| `GET` | `/api/audio/status/{slug}/{n}` | — | Poll audio generation status. Param: `voice`. Returns `{status, task_id?, error?}`. |
+| `GET` | `/api/audio-proxy/{slug}/{n}` | — | Redirect to presigned MinIO audio URL. |
+| `GET` | `/api/voices` | — | List available Kokoro voices. Returns `{voices:[]}` on error. |
+
+## Presigned URLs
+
+All presign endpoints return a `302` redirect to a short-lived MinIO presigned
+URL. The URL is cached in Valkey (TTL ~55 min) to avoid regenerating on every
+request.
+
+| Method | Path | Auth | Description |
+|--------|------|------|-------------|
+| `GET` | `/api/presign/chapter/{slug}/{n}` | — | Presigned URL for chapter markdown object. |
+| `GET` | `/api/presign/audio/{slug}/{n}` | — | Presigned URL for audio MP3. Param: `voice`. |
+| `GET` | `/api/presign/voice-sample/{voice}` | — | Presigned URL for voice sample MP3. |
+| `GET` | `/api/presign/avatar-upload/{userId}` | user | Presigned PUT URL for avatar upload. |
+| `GET` | `/api/presign/avatar/{userId}` | — | Presigned GET URL for avatar image. |
+
+## Reading Progress
+
+Session-scoped (anonymous via cookie session ID, or tied to authenticated user).
+
+| Method | Path | Auth | Description |
+|--------|------|------|-------------|
+| `GET` | `/api/progress` | — | Get all reading progress for the current session/user. |
+| `POST` | `/api/progress/{slug}` | — | Set progress. Body: `{chapter}`. |
+| `DELETE` | `/api/progress/{slug}` | — | Delete progress for a book. |
+
+## Notes
+
+- **Auth**: The backend does not enforce auth itself — the SvelteKit UI layer enforces admin/user guards before proxying requests. The backend trusts all incoming requests.
+- **`/api/catalogue` vs `/api/browse`**: `/api/catalogue` is the primary UI endpoint (Meilisearch, always-local, fast). `/api/browse` hits or caches the live novelfire.net browse page and is only used internally by the `save-browse` subcommand.
+- **Meilisearch fallback**: When `MEILI_URL` is unset, `/api/catalogue` returns `{books:[], has_next:false}` and `/api/search` falls back to a PocketBase substring scan.
+- **`BACKEND_API_URL`**: The SvelteKit UI reads this env var (default `http://localhost:8080`) to reach the backend server-side. In docker-compose it is set to `http://backend:8080`.

+# Data Flow — Scrape & TTS Job Pipeline
+
+How content moves from novelfire.net through the runner into storage, and how
+audio is generated on-demand via the backend.
+
+## Catalogue Scrape Pipeline
+
+The runner performs a background catalogue walk on startup and then on a
+configurable interval (`RUNNER_CATALOGUE_REFRESH_INTERVAL`, default 24 h).
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    A([Runner starts / refresh tick]) --> B[Walk novelfire.net catalogue\npages 1…N]
+    B --> C{Book already\nin PocketBase?}
+    C -- no --> D[Scrape book metadata\ntitle · author · genres\ncover · summary · status]
+    C -- yes --> E[Check for new chapters\ncompare total_chapters]
+    D --> F[Write BookMeta\nto PocketBase books]
+    E --> G{New chapters\nfound?}
+    G -- no --> Z([Done — next book])
+    G -- yes --> H
+    F --> H[Scrape chapter list with upTo limit\n→ chapters_idx in PocketBase\nretries on 429 with Retry-After backoff]
+    H --> I[Worker pool — N goroutines\nRUNNER_MAX_CONCURRENT_SCRAPE]
+    I --> J[For each missing chapter:\nGET chapter HTML from novelfire.net]
+    J --> K[Parse HTML → Markdown\nhtmlutil.NodeToMarkdown]
+    K --> L[PUT object to MinIO\nchapters/{slug}/{n}.md]
+    L --> M[Upsert book doc\nto Meilisearch index: books]
+    M --> Z
+    F --> M
+```
+
+## On-Demand Single-Book Scrape
+
+Triggered when a user visits `/books/{slug}` and the book is not in PocketBase.
+The UI calls `GET /api/book-preview/{slug}` → backend enqueues a scrape task.
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    actor U as User
+    participant UI as SvelteKit UI
+    participant BE as Backend API
+    participant TQ as Task Queue (PocketBase)

+    TQ-->>BE: status=done
+    BE-->>UI: {status:"done"}
+    UI-->>U: Redirect to /books/{slug}
+```
+
+## TTS Audio Generation Pipeline
+
+Audio is generated lazily: on first request the job is enqueued; subsequent
+requests poll for completion and then stream from MinIO via presigned URL.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    A(["POST /api/audio/{slug}/{n}\nbody: voice=af_bella"]) --> B{Audio already\nin MinIO?}
+    B -- yes --> C[200 status: done]
+    B -- no --> D{Job already\nin queue?}
+    D -- "yes pending/generating" --> E[202 task_id + status]
+    D -- no --> F[INSERT audio_task\nstatus=pending\nin PocketBase]
+    F --> E
+
+    G([Runner polls task queue]) --> H[Claim audio_task\nstatus=generating]
+    H --> I["GET /api/chapter-text/{slug}/{n}\nfrom backend — plain text"]
+    I --> J[POST /v1/audio/speech\nto Kokoro-FastAPI\nbody: text + voice]
+    J --> K[Stream MP3 response]
+    K --> L[PUT object to MinIO\naudio/{slug}/{n}/{voice}.mp3]
+    L --> M[UPDATE audio_task\nstatus=done]
+
+    N(["Client polls\nGET /api/audio/status/{slug}/{n}"]) --> O{status?}
+    O -- "pending/generating" --> N
+    O -- done --> P["GET /api/presign/audio/{slug}/{n}"]

+
+## iOS / Swift Conventions
+
+- **Deployment target**: iOS 17.0 — use iOS 17+ APIs freely.
+- **Observable pattern**: The codebase currently uses `@StateObject` / `ObservableObject` / `@Published`. When adding new types, prefer the **`@Observable` macro** (iOS 17+) over `ObservableObject`. Do not refactor existing types unless explicitly asked.
+- **Navigation**: Use `NavigationStack` (not `NavigationView`). Use `.navigationDestination(for:)` for type-safe routing.
+- **Concurrency**: Use `async/await` and structured concurrency. Avoid callback-based APIs and `DispatchQueue.main.async` — prefer `@MainActor` or `await MainActor.run`.
+- **State management**: Prefer `@State` + `@Binding` for local UI state. Use environment objects for app-wide services (authStore, audioPlayer, downloadService, networkMonitor).
+- **SwiftData**: Not currently used. Do not introduce SwiftData without discussion.
+- **SF Symbols**: Use `Image(systemName:)` for icons. No emoji in UI unless already present.
+
+## Key Patterns
+
+- **Download keys**: Use `::` as separator (e.g., `"slug::chapter-1::voice"`), never `-`. Slugs contain hyphens.
+- **Voice fallback chain**: book override → global default → `"af_bella"`. See `BookVoicePreferences.voiceWithFallback()`.
+- **Offline handling**: Wrap view bodies in `VStack` with `OfflineBanner` at top. Use `NetworkMonitor` (environment object) to gate network calls. Suppress network errors silently when offline via `ErrorAlertModifier`.
+- **Audio playback priority**: local file → MinIO presigned URL → trigger TTS generation.
+- **Progress display**: Show decimal % when < 10% (e.g., "3.4%"), rounded when >= 10% (e.g., "47%").
+- **Cover images**: Always proxy via `/api/cover/{domain}/{slug}` — never link directly to source.
+
+## Networking
+
+`APIClient.swift` wraps all Go scraper API calls. When adding new endpoints:
+
+1. Add a method to `APIClient`.
+2. Keep error handling consistent — throw typed errors, let ViewModels catch and set `errorMessage`.
+3. All requests are relative to `SCRAPER_API_URL` (configured at build time via xcconfig or environment).
+
+## Using Documentation Tools
+
+When writing or reviewing SwiftUI/Swift code:
+
+- Use `context7` to look up current Apple SwiftUI/Swift documentation before implementing anything non-trivial. Apple's APIs evolve fast — do not rely on training data alone.
+- Use `gh_grep` to find real-world Swift patterns when unsure how something is typically implemented.
+
+Example prompts:
+- "How does `.searchable` work in iOS 17? use context7"
+- "Show me examples of `@Observable` with async tasks. use context7"
+- "How do other apps implement background URLSession downloads in Swift? use gh_grep"
+
+## UI/UX Skill
+
+For any iOS view work, always load the `ios-ux` skill at the start of the task:
+
+```
+skill({ name: "ios-ux" })
+```
+
+This skill defines the full design system, animation rules, haptic feedback policy, accessibility checklist, performance guidelines, and offline handling requirements. It also governs how to handle screenshot-based reviews (analyze → suggest → confirm before applying).
+
+## What to Avoid
+
+- `NavigationView` — deprecated, use `NavigationStack`
+- `ObservableObject` / `@Published` for new types — prefer `@Observable`
+- `DispatchQueue.main.async` — prefer `@MainActor`
+- Force unwrapping optionals
+- Hardcoded color literals — use `Color+App.swift` extensions or semantic colors
+- Adding new dependencies (SPM packages) without discussion
