feat(spotify): load playlist tracks progressively - #439
Conversation
Tracks() blocked until every page had been fetched, so opening a large Liked Songs library sat on a spinner until the whole thing arrived. Add provider.TrackPager and page tracks into the queue 50 at a time via a self-chaining command. Request count and spacing are unchanged, so this adds no rate-limit pressure. Liked Songs is a synthetic ID with no snapshot_id, so it never invalidated its session cache. Revalidate with a single limit=1 request: /v1/me/tracks is sorted by added_at descending, so an unchanged total plus an unchanged newest entry means no add or removal.

Merge tracksPageMsg into tracksLoadedMsg: the paging fields default to zero, so non-paging providers keep the old path unchanged. Drops the duplicated gen guard, auth branch and resume tail, and fixes provLoading sticking on when the TrackPager assertion fails mid-chain. Reject non-contiguous pages in the accumulator so a superseded chain cannot splice a block into a newer load's cache commit, which the revalidation probe would not catch. Also add the compile-time TrackPager assertion, share the cache commit between Tracks and TracksPage, and compare the probe's URI directly rather than building a throwaway Track.

The contiguity guard promises a rejected page is served but not accumulated; only the accumulation half was covered. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
make coverage writes it to the repo root, so it shows up untracked after a local CI run and can be swept into a commit by git add -A. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Enter on a provider list is gated on !provLoading, and the flag was held until the final page arrived, so a list that was still filling could not be reopened after backing out of it. Esc appeared to work only because it switches focus rather than opening the list. Clear provLoading on the first page instead. Overlapping loads were already safe: a new request bumps the generation counter, stale messages are dropped, and the provider rejects non-contiguous pages. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Contiguity alone assumes a page's content depends only on its offset. A like or unlike mid-load breaks that: every later offset shifts, so pages read either side of the change splice into a list that is short by one and duplicated by one. Revalidation cannot see it, since the total and the newest entry both still match. Record the total the first page reported and reject any page carrying a different one. Contiguity then freezes want, so a load that saw the library move can never commit.

phase0_test covers a stale generation on the offset == 0 shape; this covers the progressive append, which is new and separately reachable. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Tracks() took each page's total as it came, so a like or unlike mid-load spliced two snapshots into one list: every later offset shifts, leaving the result short by one and duplicated by one. It then cached that. Pin the total from the first page and restart from a fresh snapshot when it moves, bounded so a library being actively edited fails instead of looping. TracksPage already refuses to commit in this case; this makes the invariant hold for every writer to trackCache.

Uniqueness and length only imply the right result in this fixture's universe; naming the expected newest entry states it directly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Re-entering a list that was still loading refetched every page already paid for, because the cache is only committed on completion and the accumulation was never consulted on the read path. On a large library that spends dozens of requests to arrive back where it started. Resume from the accumulation when page 0 still reports the total it was started from, and discard it otherwise, so a library that moved while the list was closed cannot splice two snapshots together. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
An unchanged total is not enough to resume onto an earlier accumulation. Resuming stitches two separate loads, so a same-total swap while the list was closed -- one track unliked, another liked -- would splice the old ordering onto a new suffix and commit it. Regular playlists have no probe to heal that afterwards. Page 0 is already in hand at the resume decision, so compare it against the head of the accumulation. Every Liked Songs mutation moves the head or the total, and a false mismatch only ever costs a restart. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Accumulations are keyed by playlist; assert each resumes from its own stopping point and does not borrow another list's pages. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Four near-identical transport stubs differed only in how they rendered a page body; fold them onto one helper, and drop savedTracksBody, which was savedTracksBodyShift with a zero shift. Read the committed cache through one accessor so the "committed means tracks != nil" rule lives beside the writer rather than being respelled at each call site. Also stop rebuilding the album-cohesion header from the whole queue on every page. setHeaderStateFromTracks resets and re-walks, which is O(n) per page and clones the queue to do it; the counters are a left fold, so advancing them by the new page alone is equivalent for appends. It also stops each page silently unpinning a header the user pinned mid-load. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
The manual pin exists so later Adds do not re-run the cohesion heuristic over the user; rebuilding the header per page cleared it. Fixed in the preceding commit, uncaught for five review rounds, so pin it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Add mixes each page into the upcoming shuffle order, so a preload armed before it is no longer the next track. The gapless swap runs on the audio thread and the model then names the new track from playlist.Next(), so a stale preload plays one track while the UI, now-playing and scrobble all announce another. Every other order-changing mutation rearms for this reason -- toggling shuffle and cycling repeat both do. Clear it instead of rearming: with shuffle on the order changes every page, and Spotify tracks arm without lead-time deferral, so rearming would open a stream per page. The tick loop re-arms once against the settled order. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Clearing the preload per page fixed the desync but re-created the cost it was meant to avoid: the tick re-arms within 200ms of a clear while pages land every 300-500ms, and Spotify tracks arm with no lead-time deferral, so each page bought a fresh stream open. Suppress arming for the duration instead, via a flag set where the load is dispatched and cleared on the terminal page, on error, and on provider reset -- a superseded chain never delivers a terminal page, so arrival alone would leave preloading dead for the session. The per-page clear stays as the catch-all for the arming paths that bypass the tick, and now also covers an in-flight preload. Suppression is not scoped to shuffle: under RepeatAll advanceFromOrder wraps to the head at the frontier, so a sequential load goes stale there too.

handleIPCProviderLoad replaces the playlist wholesale but never bumped the tracks generation, so a paged load still in flight kept passing the guard and appended its remaining pages onto the list the IPC client had just installed. Wholesale replaces used to race harmlessly, last writer winning with a coherent queue; appending is what lets the two mix. Note this also makes an external provider.load supersede an in-flight non-paged load rather than racing it. That is a deliberate semantic change: an explicit remote command should win over a load already running. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
A removal mid-load drops the total, so every remaining page mismatches the pinned snapshot and can never be accumulated. The rejection returned a non-zero next offset regardless, so the chain kept going: on a 6000 track library that is ~79 further requests after the load is already known to be discarded, and the visible list keeps growing from pages that will never be cached. Return the error instead, and drop the doomed accumulation. Reopening the list starts a clean load. Distinguish this from a superseded chain's straggler, which still returns its page silently and must not disturb the live accumulation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
The error slot has no expiry and renders ahead of the status line, so reporting a mid-load change there left it on screen for the session and masked every later status message. Report it as a timed status instead, matched on a new sentinel so genuine load failures still persist as errors.

fetchTracksPage is the only place the saved-tracks and playlist-items shapes differ, and its skipped-item behaviour is why callers must advance by the page size rather than by the slice length. fetchTracksPageCmd is where the chain's message-loop driving is worth stating.

Two defects CodeRabbit caught on the open PR. Saved albums arrived upstream while this branch was in progress and use their own endpoint, which Tracks() has always honoured. Every list now opens through TracksPage, which did not, so an album ID was spliced into a playlist-items URL and saved albums failed to open. Serve them whole there too. Resuming an abandoned load was allowed for any list on an unchanged total and head. That reasoning only holds for saved tracks, where a like lands at position 0 and an unlike moves the total. An ordinary playlist can be edited anywhere, so a same-total edit below the head but inside the fetched prefix shifts every later offset and stitches the halves together one track short. Restrict resuming to saved tracks; everything else restarts from a clean page 0. Also name the synthetic Liked Songs ID rather than repeating the literal.

Closing while I verify a couple of things locally — CodeRabbit caught two real defects (saved albums were routed to the wrong endpoint, and resuming an abandoned load was allowed for ordinary playlists where an unchanged total and head prove nothing). Both are fixed on the branch; I want to exercise them against a real library before asking anyone to look. Will reopen once that's done. |

🌐 Web query:
site:developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/get-playlist-items Spotify snapshot_id playlist items response
💡 Result:
In the Spotify Web API, the snapshot_id is a unique identifier provided in the response body of playlist-related requests that represents the current version of a playlist [1]. It is primarily used to manage concurrent changes to a playlist [1]. When you perform operations that modify a playlist—such as removing or reordering items—you can include the snapshot_id in your request to ensure you are modifying the intended version of the playlist [1]. This helps prevent conflicts if the playlist was updated by another process between the time you retrieved its details and the time you submitted your modification [1]. Key details regarding snapshot_id: - Availability: It is returned in the response body of endpoints such as Get a Playlist [1] and Create a Playlist [1]. - Purpose: It serves as a version identifier that can be used to target a specific version of a playlist when performing write operations like Removing Items from a Playlist [1]. - Note on Items: While the Get a Playlist's Items endpoint retrieves the track and episode content within a playlist, the snapshot_id itself is a property of the playlist object, which is typically retrieved via the Get a Playlist endpoint [1].

Validate each ordinary playlist page chain against a pinned snapshot.
TracksPage records only total for an active ordinary-playlist chain. A same-total reorder can combine pages from different playlist versions before cacheTracksLocked commits the result. Pin snapshot_id when the chain starts, validate it before accepting later pages and before cache commit, and return playlist.ErrListChanged after discarding pending when it changes. Add a regression test for a same-total reorder between pages.

Restricting resume to saved tracks made every ordinary playlist restart from page 0 when reopened mid-load, which on a thousand-track playlist throws away twenty pages already paid for. Spotify versions playlists with snapshot_id, which changes on any edit, so an unchanged one proves the pages already read are still valid -- the guarantee an unchanged total and head could not give. Record the snapshot an accumulation began under and probe it on re-entry: one request rather than twenty, and sound rather than hopeful. The probe needs a request, so the decision is made before taking the lock guarding the accumulation. A missing or unreadable snapshot restarts, which is the safe direction. Saved tracks keep the head comparison; they have no snapshot_id. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd

Reopening — the two defects CodeRabbit found are fixed and verified against a real library. Saved albums were being routed to the playlist-items endpoint and failed to open; they now go through their own endpoint. Resuming an abandoned load was allowed on an unchanged total and head, which proves nothing for an ordinary playlist since it can be edited anywhere — that now uses Both are covered by tests, and I re-tested by hand: progressive fill, leaving and returning mid-load, adding and removing tracks while a list loads, playing through a track boundary mid-load, and saved albums. |

Both return sites propagated the bare error, so a failure arrived with no indication of which call or which playlist produced it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013giicCHStK1SeKrvFHUdAd
Summary
Opening a large Spotify playlist blocked until every page had been fetched.
Tracks()paginated/v1/me/tracks50 at a time and the UI waited for the full result, so a large "Liked Songs" library sat on a spinner for about a minute before anything appeared.This pages tracks into the queue as they arrive. The first page installs the queue and playback is available immediately; each later page appends.
Request count, spacing and density are unchanged — paging is still strictly sequential, one page at a time. This adds no rate-limit pressure; the win is that results are visible immediately rather than after the last page.
Mechanically it is a new optional interface,
provider.TrackPager, asserted at the call site the same wayResumeTargetandCustomStreameralready are. Only Spotify implements it; every other provider keeps the existingTracks()path unchanged. Pages are driven by a self-chainingtea.Cmd, so there are no goroutines or channels and notea.Programhandle is needed inui/model.One related fix came with it. "Liked Songs" is a synthetic ID with no
snapshot_id, so unlike real playlists it never invalidated its session cache — liking a song elsewhere was invisible until cliamp restarted. It is now revalidated with a singlelimit=1request:/v1/me/tracksis orderedadded_atdescending, so an unchanged total plus an unchanged newest entry means nothing was added or removed. Any mismatch, or any error, refetches — the failure direction is stale-free. Repeat visits drop from N requests to 1.Screenshots / video

The branch establishes one property worth stating explicitly, because it is what most of the commits are defending: no writer to
trackCachecan commit a list assembled from more than one library snapshot.That matters because a like or unlike prepends, shifting every later offset by one. Pages read either side of such a change splice into a list that is short by one and duplicated by one — and the revalidation probe cannot detect it, since the total and the newest entry both still match. It would be sticky and silent until the next library change.
Both writers are now covered.
TracksPagepins the total its accumulation started from and refuses any page reporting a different one, so a load that saw the library move never commits — and it stops rather than spending the rest of the library's pages on a result already destined to be discarded.Tracks()pins the same way and restarts from a fresh snapshot, bounded at two restarts so a library being actively edited returns an error rather than looping.Tracks()is still reachable in both daemon mode and TUI mode —ui/model/ipc_extended.godispatchesprovider.tracksandprovider.loadstraight to it — so leaving it unpinned would have left the shared cache poisonable from outside.Re-entering a list abandoned mid-load resumes the earlier accumulation rather than refetching every page already paid for, which costs one request instead of dozens on a large library. That stitches two separate reads together, so it is only allowed where the pages already held can be proven still valid, and the proof differs by list.
Ordinary playlists use
snapshot_id, Spotify's own version token, which changes on any edit. The accumulation records the snapshot it began under and one request checks it on re-entry; an unchanged token proves the playlist is untouched. Saved tracks have no snapshot, so they use an unchanged total together with an unchanged head — which is proof only there, because a like lands at position 0 and an unlike moves the total, so no edit can hide from both. An ordinary playlist can be edited anywhere, and a same-total edit below the head but inside the fetched prefix would shift every later offset and stitch the halves together one track short, which is why total and head alone are not enough for them. A missing or unreadable snapshot restarts, which is the safe direction.Gapless preloading is held off while pages are landing. Each page remixes the upcoming order — and under repeat-all a sequential load wraps to the head at the frontier — so a preload armed mid-load can stop being the next track, and the player advances into a preloaded pipeline on its own thread rather than being told to. It arms again as soon as the order settles, so the cost is no gapless across a boundary falling inside the load window.
One deliberate semantic change: an external
provider.loadover IPC now supersedes an in-flight load rather than racing it. It replaces the queue wholesale, and a paged load would otherwise keep appending its remaining pages onto the list the client just installed.One behaviour worth naming so it is not mistaken for a bug: opening list B while list A is still loading abandons A's chain silently. A keeps whatever it had, and returns to it for a single request whenever you go back. Backing out with Esc does not abandon a load — it runs to completion — so nothing downloads unless you are looking at it or just were. That is deliberate: a background queue would spend rate-limit budget on lists you may never open again.
One residual is accepted deliberately: unliking one track and liking another between two visits to Liked Songs leaves both the total and the newest entry unchanged, so the revalidation probe serves the cached list. The difference is bounded to that one entry and heals on the next library change.
Saved albums are served whole rather than paged. They come from their own endpoint and are small enough not to need it.
Notes
Tests are table-driven in
external/spotify/provider_paging_test.go, using the existingroundTripFuncstub. They cover pagination across empty / partial / exact-boundary / multi-page; the revalidation hit and both miss cases (changed total, changed newest entry); rejection of non-contiguous pages; an aborted load leaving nothing cached; the mid-load mutation case for both cache writers, including that a drifted load stops instead of spending the rest of its pages; and the resume path — resuming in a single request through to a complete commit, discarding when the total moved, discarding when the head moved at an unchanged total, resuming a playlist on an unchangedsnapshot_idand restarting it on a changed one, and serving a saved album whole through its own endpoint rather than splicing an album ID into a playlist-items URL.ui/model/progressive_tracks_test.gocovers the UI side: the pane unblocking on the first page so a still-filling list can be reopened, later pages appending rather than replacing, a superseded page neither appending nor dispatching, the album-header pin surviving later pages, an IPC load retiring an in-flight paged load, the changed-list notice expiring instead of occupying the permanent error slot while real failures still persist, and the preload guarantees — a stale preload dropped on append, arming suppressed while pages land, and the flag cleared on the terminal page, on error and on provider reset so it cannot strand preloading for the session. The tick test asserts both directions, so the guard cannot pass vacuously.Two deliberate design points, in case they look odd in review:
len(tracks), because pages skip items with no ID (local/unavailable tracks). Deriving the total would make any library containing local files look permanently changed.pendingmap and are only promoted totrackCacheon completion, so navigating away mid-load cannot leave a partial list posing as a complete one. Pages arriving out of order are served to their caller but not accumulated.The
added_atordering that revalidation relies on is undocumented, though consistently observed. It is noted as such in the code, and the failure mode if it ever changes is an extra refetch, never stale data.Also included, as a separate commit:
coverage.outadded to.gitignore.make coveragewrites it to the repo root, so it shows up untracked after a local CI run. Happy to pull it into its own PR if you would rather keep this one to the provider change.I have one follow-up queued for this provider — passing
market, sois_playableis actually populated and region-locked tracks are skipped rather than failing at play time. Happy to fold it into this PR if you would prefer one bundle, or keep it separate.Working on this also turned up a few pre-existing issues that are out of scope here and that I am happy to file separately:
webAPIWithBodyhonours a 429Retry-Afterverbatim, so a long backoff always outlives the caller's context and the retry loop can never complete;ytdlBatchMsgappends batches the same way this branch does and leaves a stale gapless preload behind, which is the same defect fixed here for the paged path; andpreloadStreamCmdandpreloadLocalCmdare byte-identical.Attribution
The code here was written by Claude Code (Opus 5). I directed the work and made the design decisions with it — what to build, what to leave out, and which trade-offs to accept — and a second model, Kimi K3, reviewed every commit. Several of the fixes in this branch exist only because that review caught something: the snapshot pin, the bounded restart in
Tracks(), and the head comparison guarding resume were all raised there.Being straight about the limits of that: I have not read the diff line by line myself. What I did do is build it and use it, repeatedly — the re-entry lockout and the full reload on re-entry were both found by hand-testing rather than by either model, and every fix here was re-tested against a real library before this PR, including playing through a track boundary mid-load and mutating the library while a list was still filling. Happy to walk through anything or make changes if a human review turns up something we missed.
