Living orientation doc for what this repo is, how it is currently shaped, and where it appears headed. Sits alongside the root `CLAUDE.md` (operational guidance) — this file is the product/architecture view.
> **Drift notice.** The root `CLAUDE.md` and every folder-level `CLAUDE.md` currently in the tree describe the project as `.NET 9`. The most recent commit upgraded all projects to `.NET 10` (every `.csproj` now targets `net10.0`, packages pinned at `10.0.1`). Until those docs are refreshed, treat any framework-version claim in them as stale. The other staleness items are listed at the bottom of this file.
> **Status.** The root `CLAUDE.md` is current — it reflects the post-split ten-project solution, `net10.0`, and the dual-app topology. This file (`CONTEXT.md`) was the lagging document and §2 / §4 / §7 below have been brought back into line with the root `CLAUDE.md` as of 2026-06-06. Folder-level `CLAUDE.md` files are still being swept (`DOC_PLAN.md`); treat framework-version and structural claims in any *folder* `CLAUDE.md` not yet rewritten as potentially stale until that sweep lands.

## 1. What this project is
DeepDrftHome is the home + listening surface for **DeepDrft**, a two-person electronic music collective based in Charleston, SC (per `DeepDrftWeb.Client/Pages/Home.razor`). The product is, at minimum:
DeepDrftHome is the home + listening surface for **DeepDrft**, a two-person electronic music collective based in Charleston, SC (per `DeepDrftPublic.Client/Pages/Home.razor`). The product is, at minimum:
- A public-facing site (hero, about, "experience" features).
- A public-facing site (hero, about, "experience" features) at `DeepDrftPublic`.
- A **track gallery** that browses a library of WAV recordings, plays them in-browser with a persistent dock-style player, and supports seek (including seek beyond what's been streamed so far).
- An admin CLI for adding tracks (Terminal.Gui or scripted), running locally against the same dual-database substrate the site uses.
- A browser-based **CMS** (`DeepDrftManager`) for adding, editing, and deleting tracks — gated behind AuthBlocks login and the `Admin` role. This replaced the former `DeepDrftCli` Terminal.Gui admin tool, which has been retired.
The interesting engineering bet is the **dual-database split**: structured track metadata in SQLite via EF Core, and binary media + per-vault indexes in a hand-rolled `FileDatabase` that lives on disk. The split is enforced across two ASP.NET Core hosts so that the browser never reaches the database directly.

## 2. Solution shape (current)
Eight projects in `DeepDrftHome.sln`, plus an external `NetBlocks` referenced from `C:\lib\NetBlocks\`.
Ten projects in `DeepDrftHome.sln`, plus an external `NetBlocks` referenced from `C:\lib\NetBlocks\`. The solution is split into **two independent Blazor applications** — the public site (`DeepDrftPublic`) and the CMS (`DeepDrftManager`) — both fronting a single dual-database authority host (`DeepDrftAPI`).
```
DeepDrftWeb ASP.NET Core host. Blazor Web App (Server + WASM render modes).
Owns the SQL-backed API (api/track/page), MudBlazor theme/host,
TypeScript→JS audio interop sources under Interop/.
DeepDrftWeb.Client Blazor WebAssembly assembly. All interactive UI lives here —
pages, controls, player services, dark-mode/theme plumbing,
HTTP clients for both backends.
DeepDrftWeb.Services Class library. EF Core: DeepDrftContext, TrackConfiguration,
Migrations, TrackRepository, TrackService. Sharable between
the web host and the CLI (avoids duplicating data-access).
── Public application ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────
DeepDrftPublic ASP.NET Core host. Blazor Web App (Server + WASM render
modes). Owns the browser-facing proxy controller for
api/track/* (metadata listing + audio streaming),
MudBlazor theme prerender, and TypeScript→JS audio interop
sources under Interop/. The public listening surface.
DeepDrftPublic.Client Blazor WebAssembly assembly. All interactive public UI —
pages, the player stack, dark-mode plumbing, HTTP clients
for the backend. Consumed by DeepDrftPublic.
DeepDrftContent ASP.NET Core host. Binary content API (api/track/{id}).
ApiKey middleware, CORS, ForwardedHeaders. Returns audio bytes
(with optional byte offset) and accepts PUT of AudioBinaryDto.
DeepDrftContent.Services Class library. The FileDatabase implementation in full
── CMS application ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
DeepDrftManager ASP.NET Core host. Blazor Web App (InteractiveServer).
Hosts all CMS Razor components/pages (Components/Pages/Cms/,
Components/Pages/Tracks/, Components/Layout/CmsLayout.razor,
Components/Shared/ — inlined from the former DeepDrftCms RCL).
Gated by AuthBlocks login + hierarchical Admin role. All track
operations proxy via ICmsTrackService / CmsTrackService.
── Dual-database authority ─────────────────────────────────────────────────
DeepDrftAPI ASP.NET Core host. The single authority over both databases
(SQL metadata + FileDatabase binary). AuthBlocks API host
(registration, migration/seed, JWT endpoints). Seven track
endpoints (stream, vault write, upload, delete, paged list,
single metadata read, metadata update).
DeepDrftData Class library. EF Core domain logic: DeepDrftContext,
TrackConfiguration, Migrations, TrackRepository, TrackService,
TrackManager. Consumed by DeepDrftAPI and tests.
DeepDrftContent Class library. The FileDatabase implementation in full
(Models, Services, Utils, Abstractions, Constants),
WavOffsetService, AudioProcessor, TrackService (the content-side
orchestrator that processes WAVs and stores them in a vault).
WavOffsetService, AudioProcessor, content-side TrackService.
Consumed by hosts and tests.
── Shared ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
DeepDrftShared.Client Razor Class Library. Shared Blazor components consumed by
BOTH DeepDrftPublic and DeepDrftManager (e.g. TrackCard,
TracksGallery) for consistency across public and admin surfaces.
DeepDrftModels Shared contracts: TrackEntity, TrackDto, PagingParameters<T>,
PagedResult<T>. The only project all three layers reference.
DeepDrftCli Console app. Two modes: classic `add` / `list` / `help` and
`gui` (Terminal.Gui). Consumes BOTH service libraries directly
(it's a local admin tool, not a network client).
PagedResult<T>, plus waveform DTOs. Every project references this.
DeepDrftTests NUnit. Covers the FileDatabase, MediaVault, IndexSystem,
MediaVaultFactory, SimpleMediaTypeRegistry, utility code, and
model behaviour. References DeepDrftContent.Services.
MediaVaultFactory, SimpleMediaTypeRegistry, utility code, model
behaviour, and the waveform loudness algorithm. References
DeepDrftContent.
NetBlocks (external) Result patterns: Result, ResultContainer<T>, ApiResult<T>,
ApiResultDto<T>. Referenced via absolute path.
```
Two stray .sln files (`WebAPI.sln`, `WebUI.sln`, `CLI.sln`) exist at the root alongside `DeepDrftHome.sln`. `DeepDrftHome.sln` is the canonical solution; the others appear to be subsets.
**Naming history (for readers of older docs/commits):** `DeepDrftWeb``DeepDrftPublic`, `DeepDrftWeb.Client``DeepDrftPublic.Client`, `DeepDrftWeb.Services``DeepDrftData`, `DeepDrftContent.Services``DeepDrftContent` (the host that previously owned the binary API is gone; its proxy duties moved into `DeepDrftPublic`, its authority duties into `DeepDrftAPI`). `DeepDrftCli` and the `DeepDrftCms` RCL have both been removed — the CLI retired in favour of the CMS, and the CMS RCL was inlined into `DeepDrftManager`.
**Subdomain topology (deployment):** `deepdrft.com` (public) and `manage.deepdrft.com` (CMS), behind nginx. CD infrastructure (Gitea workflows + installer scripts + systemd/nginx templates) has landed — see `COMPLETED.md` "Deployment Infrastructure."

Observations:
1. **The current arc is presentation, not capability.** The last five commits are framework upgrade, theming, content/layout cleanup, mobile menu, dark-mode persistence, and the spectrum visualiser. The playback substrate, streaming, and seek-beyond-buffer machinery landed earlier and is stable enough to support cosmetic iteration on top.
2. **The "Track Gallery" is the only real page.** `/tracks` is the working surface; `/` is marketing copy. Nav (in `Pages.cs`) defines only `Home` + `Track Gallery`.
3. **Content surface is narrow on purpose.** The DeepDrftContent API exposes exactly two routes: `GET api/track/{id}` (with optional `offset`) and `PUT api/track/{id}` (ApiKey). There is no listing endpoint there; listing lives on DeepDrftWeb because listings are SQL queries.
1. **The big structural moves have landed.** Since the last revision of this doc, three large initiatives shipped: the **two-app split** (public/CMS separation with `DeepDrftAPI` as the dual-database authority), the **browser CMS** replacing the CLI (auth via AuthBlocks, stealth-routed `/cms/*`, full add/list/edit/delete parity), and **CD infrastructure** (Gitea workflows + host installer + systemd/nginx templates). The substrate is no longer the frontier — the product and presentation layers are.
2. **The recent arc is player UX polish.** The latest wave of work is the WaveformSeeker (loudness-profile seekbar), AudioPlayerBar responsive unification, and play-state icon normalization (a single `PlaybackIcons` resolver + `PlayStateIcon` component, gallery cards reflecting real playback state with pause/resume). Presentation iteration on a stable streaming core.
3. **The "Track Gallery" is still the only real public content page.** `/tracks` is the working listening surface; `/` is the (reskinned) marketing home. Nav (in `Layout/Pages.cs`) is still essentially `Home` + `Track Gallery`. The CMS adds admin surfaces under `/cms` but those are not public.
4. **The metadata/streaming surface is consolidated on `DeepDrftAPI`.** It exposes seven track endpoints (stream, vault write, upload, delete, paged list, single-metadata read, metadata update) plus waveform endpoints. `DeepDrftPublic` is a thin browser-facing proxy in front of it; the browser never reaches `DeepDrftAPI` or the databases directly.
5. **In flight (working tree, not yet committed):** an **embeddable iframe player** (`EmbedLayout.razor`, `FramePlayer.razor`, a new `ITrackDataService` seam) — a chrome-free single-track play surface for embedding off-site. Partial and not yet compiling; see `PLAN.md` "In-flight — Embeddable iframe player" for the open questions.

- **More vault types in active use.** `MediaVaultType.Image` exists end-to-end (tests cover it) but the production surface only registers a `tracks` vault of type `Audio`. The path to releases/albums probably runs through images first (cover art via `ImagePath`, which is currently a free-form URL string).
- **More than one collection view.** The `TrackCard` already conditionally renders `ImagePath`, `Album`, `Genre`, `ReleaseDate` — the data shape supports album-grouped or genre-filtered views without schema work.
- **Upload from the web side, not just the CLI.** The CLI is currently the only producer of tracks. A web-side upload would re-use `DeepDrftContent.Services.TrackService.AddTrackFromWavAsync` and pair it with a `TrackService.Create` on the SQL side. The `[ApiKeyAuthorize]` middleware on `PUT api/track/{id}` is already in place.
- **Web upload — landed.** *(Historical note: this was a "likely direction" when the CLI was the only producer. It has since shipped.)* The CMS (`DeepDrftManager`) now produces tracks via `POST api/track/upload` on `DeepDrftAPI`, proxied through the auth-gated CMS surface. The CLI has been retired. The dual-write rollback gap (`PLAN.md §4.3`) still stands.
- **Live/session content.** The home page advertises "Live Sessions" and "Video Content (coming soon)". No data model exists for these yet; they would likely need new vault types (`MediaVaultType.Media` is the obvious home for video) and new entity tables.
- **Non-WAV formats.** Today the producer side is WAV-only (`AudioProcessor.ProcessWavFileAsync` validates RIFF/WAVE/PCM). `MimeTypeExtensions` already knows mp3/flac/aac/ogg/m4a — the gap is a processor per format and a decoder strategy in the JS player (currently WAV-specific).
- **Search / filter on the gallery.** `TracksViewModel` exposes `SortBy` / `IsDescending` but no filter. `TrackService.GetPaged` accepts only sort, not filter. Adding filter would be a natural next step on the same pagination contract.

## 7. Staleness in existing docs (for doc-keeper to address)
Captured so the next sweep of folder-level `CLAUDE.md` files can correct in one pass.
Two layers of drift remain. The root `CLAUDE.md` and this `CONTEXT.md` are current; the lag is now in **folder-level `CLAUDE.md` files** and the in-tree `FileDatabase` README. `DOC_PLAN.md` holds the per-folder rewrite briefs, but note that `DOC_PLAN.md` itself was authored against the *pre-split* project names (2026-05-16) and is partly superseded — see the warning at the end of this section.
- Every folder `CLAUDE.md` says ".NET 9" / "ASP.NET Core 9.0"; reality is `net10.0` across the board.
- `DeepDrftModels/CLAUDE.md` and `DeepDrftContent.Services/FileDatabase/README.md` reference `TrackEntity.MediaPath`; the field is `EntryKey` and the column is `entry_key`.
- `DeepDrftContent/CLAUDE.md` describes a `FileDatabase/` tree inside `DeepDrftContent/`; that tree has moved entirely to `DeepDrftContent.Services/FileDatabase/`. The DeepDrftContent host now contains only `Controllers/`, `Middleware/`, `Models/` (settings POCOs), `environment/`, `Program.cs`, `Startup.cs`.
- `DeepDrftContent/CLAUDE.md` documents only the PUT endpoint; the production API now also has `GET api/track/{id}?offset=` (unauthenticated read, with `WavOffsetService` for offset streaming).
- `DeepDrftWeb/CLAUDE.md` describes EF Core, repositories, services, migrations as living inside `DeepDrftWeb/Data` and `DeepDrftWeb/Services`. They have all moved to `DeepDrftWeb.Services`. The only things still in `DeepDrftWeb` are `Controllers/TrackController.cs`, `Services/DarkModeService.cs`, `Startup.cs`, `Program.cs`, `Components/`, `Interop/`, `wwwroot/`.
- `DeepDrftWeb.Client/CLAUDE.md` lists the `Pages/` directory as containing `Counter.razor` / `Weather.razor` (demo); those are gone. The real client structure is `Pages/Home.razor` + `Pages/TracksView.razor`, plus the `Controls/AudioPlayerBar/` cluster, `Controls/AudioPlayerProvider.razor`, `Services/AudioInteropService.cs` + `AudioPlayerService.cs` + `StreamingAudioPlayerService.cs` + `IPlayerService.cs` + dark-mode services, `Common/DarkModeSettings.cs` + `Common/DDIcons.cs`, and `Layout/Pages.cs` + `Layout/DeepDrftMenu.razor`.
- The `DeepDrftWeb.Services` and `DeepDrftContent.Services` projects have **no** `CLAUDE.md` yet — they are where most of the domain logic actually lives, so this is the biggest gap.
- `DeepDrftCli/CLAUDE.md` references `appsettings.json`; the CLI actually loads `environment/connections.json` into `CliSettings` (with `ConnectionString` and `VaultPath`). The "Available Commands" section is otherwise current, including the `gui` Terminal.Gui mode and interactive `add`.
- `DeepDrftContent.Services/FileDatabase/README.md` (an in-tree dev README, not a CLAUDE.md) refers to `ImageDirectoryVault`; the type is `ImageVault`. It also describes `EntryKey` as removed in favour of strings, which is accurate, but its diagram still says "FileDatabase.csproj (.NET 9.0)" — the FileDatabase no longer has its own csproj at all (it's a subdirectory of `DeepDrftContent.Services`).
**Project-rename drift (the big one).** The two-app split renamed or removed most projects. Any folder `CLAUDE.md` still using the old names is wrong at the structural level, not just the framework-version level:
- `DeepDrftWeb``DeepDrftPublic`; `DeepDrftWeb.Client``DeepDrftPublic.Client`; `DeepDrftWeb.Services``DeepDrftData`.
- `DeepDrftContent.Services` (class library) is now just `DeepDrftContent`; the old `DeepDrftContent` *host* is gone — binary-API duties split between the `DeepDrftPublic` proxy and the `DeepDrftAPI` authority.
- `DeepDrftCli` and the `DeepDrftCms` RCL are **deleted**. Any `CLAUDE.md` for them should be removed, not rewritten.
**Known content drift to correct in the sweep:**
- Framework version: any folder `CLAUDE.md` still saying ".NET 9" / "ASP.NET Core 9.0" — reality is `net10.0` across the board.
- `TrackEntity.MediaPath` references (notably the `FileDatabase/README.md`) — the field is `EntryKey`, column `entry_key`.
- The `FileDatabase/README.md` refers to `ImageDirectoryVault` (the type is `ImageVault`) and a "FileDatabase.csproj (.NET 9.0)" that no longer exists (FileDatabase is a subdirectory of `DeepDrftContent`).
- `DeepDrftData` and `DeepDrftContent` are where most domain logic lives and are the highest-value targets for accurate `CLAUDE.md` coverage.
**Already corrected (no longer stale):**
- `DeepDrftPublic.Client/CLAUDE.md` was rewritten in commit `9110b4b` and reflects the current player stack, `PlaybackIcons`/`PlayStateIcon`, and the post-split structure.
> **`DOC_PLAN.md` caveat.** `DOC_PLAN.md` predates the two-app split — its per-folder briefs reference `DeepDrftWeb*`, `DeepDrftCli`, and a SQLite backend (now PostgreSQL). Treat its *intent* (lead-with-truth, cross-reference root, no docs for build output) as still valid, but its *project list and per-folder details* need reconciling against the current ten-project solution before doc-keeper executes against it. Flag to Daniel whether to refresh `DOC_PLAN.md` first or let doc-keeper work from the root `CLAUDE.md` directly.

## In-flight — Two-app architectural split
## In-flight — Embeddable iframe player
The public site and the CMS are being split into two independent Blazor applications. **Design locked by Daniel 2026-05-19** at `design/TWO-APP-SPLIT.md` §10. All ten open questions resolved. Implementation phases ready to schedule in the phased rollout at §8.
A standalone, chrome-free player surface intended for embedding in an `<iframe>` on external pages (e.g. a Bandcamp-style "play this track here" widget on a third-party blog or the collective's socials). Distinct from the dock player, which lives inside the full site chrome.
**Names locked:** `DeepDrftPublic` (public host), `DeepDrftManager` (CMS host), `DeepDrftShared.Client` (shared RCL). Subdomain topology: `deepdrft.com` (public) and `manage.deepdrft.com` (CMS).
**Shape as it stands in the working tree (`[in-progress]`, code is partial and does not yet compile):**
Supersedes the host-shape pieces of `CMS-PLAN.md §2`; the CMS feature waves in `CMS-PLAN.md` survive unchanged and move to the new host.
- `Layout/EmbedLayout.razor` — a minimal layout: `MudThemeProvider` + `AudioPlayerProvider` wrapping `@Body`, with no nav, menu, or marketing chrome. Reuses the dark-mode `PersistentComponentState` round-trip (`CONTEXT.md §3.6`) so an embedded player still honours the theme.
- `Pages/FramePlayer.razor` — routed at `/FramePlayer`, uses `EmbedLayout`, renders a single `<AudioPlayerBar Fixed />`. Reads a `TrackEntryKey` from the query string and is meant to auto-select that track on load.
- `Services/ITrackDataService.cs` + `TrackClientDataService.cs` — a new track-metadata fetch seam (`GetPage` + a new `GetTrack(trackId)`) so a component can resolve a single track by key without the gallery VM. Intended to be render-mode-agnostic (one seam, SSR and WASM both served by it).
**Phases 14 landed (Wave 2):** `DeepDrftManager` host created, AuthBlocks stripped from `DeepDrftWeb`, `DeepDrftShared.Client` RCL extracted, and `DeepDrftWeb` / `DeepDrftWeb.Client` renamed to `DeepDrftPublic` / `DeepDrftPublic.Client`. Phase 5 (nginx/deploy topology, dev-ops territory) is next.
**Why it matters:** An embeddable player turns every external mention of a DeepDrft track into a play surface. It is the lightest-weight distribution lever the product has — no app install, no account, just a link that plays. Fits the collective's "get the music in front of people" posture.
**Open questions (unresolved — surface to Daniel before this lands):**
- **Is this a committed direction or an experiment?** The code is a partial spike. Confirm before scoping the rest.
- **Track addressing.** `FramePlayer` keys off `TrackEntryKey` (the FileDatabase entry key), but `ITrackDataService.GetTrack(string trackId)` is ambiguous about whether the argument is the SQL `Id` or the `EntryKey`. The two ID spaces (`CONTEXT.md §3.4`) need to be reconciled before the lookup is correct.
- **`AudioPlayerBar` reuse vs. a dedicated embed control.** The `FramePlayer` TODO comment proposes "an iframe-compatible player using the AudioPlayerControl." Decide whether the embed reuses the full dock bar (current approach) or a stripped single-track control.
- **Embedding security.** A public iframe surface implies decisions about `X-Frame-Options` / CSP `frame-ancestors`, and whether the unauthenticated `GET api/track/{id}` stream is acceptable to expose from arbitrary origins (it already is unauthenticated, but embedding makes the exposure explicit).
`[in-progress]` — capture the design decisions in a product note when Daniel confirms the direction.
