Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Batch runs can silently lose a playlist's checkpoint when two lines share a course code. The crash-safe guarantee also does not hold after a power loss. Resolve both before merging. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Batch processing can send insufficiently validated URLs to the extractor and can replace an earlier JSON file when two items receive the same filename. Cancellation also has a narrow timing window in which processing may continue. The impact is bounded by use of the desktop application and a user-selected output folder, but the new workflow merits design review. Retained concerns

190-190: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low valueCorrect the durability claim.
The README states that completed files survive an application crash. This holds for a process crash. The current writer does not
fsync, so an OS crash or power loss can still lose data. Either fix the writer, as noted in thebatch.pycomment, or narrow this claim.Also, two items with the same course code write to the same file. Document this or handle it in code.

Handle output-stem collisions between batch items.
output_stem comes from the course code. Two items with the same course code but different URLs both map to <CODE>.json. The second item silently overwrites the first checkpoint. Deduplication only checks URLs.
Also, output_stem can be an empty string if a course code sanitizes to nothing. This is unlikely, because _COURSE_CODE_RE requires letters and digits.
Detect duplicate stems during parsing or writing. Add a suffix such as -2, or report an error.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Add fsync calls to make the checkpoint crash-safe.
The docstring and README promise crash-safe checkpoints. write_text followed by replace does not flush the file data to disk. After an OS crash or power loss, the renamed .json file can be empty or truncated. The parent directory entry is also not synced.
Write through a file handle. Call flush() and os.fsync() before replace. Then fsync the directory on POSIX systems.
Also, remove the temp file if the write fails. Otherwise a stale .json.tmp file remains.
Proposed fix
- temp_path.write_text(
- json.dumps(payload, indent=indent, ensure_ascii=False),
- encoding="utf-8",
- )
- temp_path.replace(path)
+ try:
+ with temp_path.open("w", encoding="utf-8") as handle:
+ handle.write(json.dumps(payload, indent=indent, ensure_ascii=False))
+ handle.flush()
+ os.fsync(handle.fileno())
+ temp_path.replace(path)
+ except BaseException:
+ temp_path.unlink(missing_ok=True)
+ raise
+ if os.name == "posix":
+ dir_fd = os.open(destination_directory, os.O_RDONLY)
+ try:
+ os.fsync(dir_fd)
+ finally:
+ os.close(dir_fd)
return pathAdd import os at the top of the file.
Based on learnings: atomic persistence on POSIX requires fsync of the temp file before rename and fsync of the directory after rename. Temp files must also be deleted on failure.

Guard against an empty result.playlists.
result.playlists[0] raises IndexError if the result is empty. The exception escapes the slot before _batch_current is cleared. The batch then stalls with the UI stuck busy.
Treat an empty result as a failed item. Record it and continue with the next item.
Proposed fix
- playlist = result.playlists[0]
+ if not result.playlists:
+ self._batch_failed.append(
+ f"{self._batch_current.course_code or self._batch_current.url}: no playlist returned"
+ )
+ self._batch_current = None
+ self._start_next_batch_item()
+ return
+ playlist = result.playlists[0]📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
