feat: drop rms_display from /api/analyze
The UI no longer draws waveforms, so the server stops computing and sending the ~800-point RMS preview; the payload is now just sections, duration, window. Old analysis caches stay valid: rms/rms_display are popped when serving a cache hit (same pattern as the earlier full-RMS removal), so no DETECTOR_VERSION bump. Verified: 63 tests pass; endpoint smoke test (fresh + cached analyze) confirms no RMS keys and correct section detection. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

- **Loud-section detection is adaptive — do not regress it to an absolute threshold.** Per-window dB is compared against a rolling noise floor (`NOISE_PERCENTILE`-th percentile per `NOISE_BLOCK_SECONDS` block, min-smoothed over ±2 blocks so events can't raise their own floor; clamped to ≥ `MIN_RMS`). A section needs `margin` dB of prominence and carries a `score` used for ranking: peak dB above floor, **capped by the sharpest rise within `ONSET_SECONDS` (0.5 s)** — so a short (~10 s) swell that outruns the 30 s floor blocks still flags but scores ≈ 0 and sinks in the U/I highlight ranking, while sharp events keep their full prominence. A section starting in the first 0.5 s of a file is scored against the floor instead (events cut off by a file split must not be punished as swells). Do not regress the scoring to raw peak, and do not fight swells with a higher margin. If flagging itself (not just ranking) ever needs improving, the next step is a spectral filter or optional Silero VAD over candidate sections. Sections shorter than `min_duration` (default 0.5 s, after `min_gap` merging) are discarded — without this, isolated 100 ms pops (clicks, single raindrops) produced thousands of zero-length sections per day. The original fixed RMS threshold flagged every ambience change (passing cars, rain) and produced ~600 useless sections/day — that is why it was replaced. Tests in `tests/test_web.py`.

- **Analysis params are coupled in five places.** CLI `--margin`/`--min-gap`/`--min-duration` → `/api/config` → UI inputs `#margin-input`/`#min-gap-input`/`#min-duration-input` → `/api/analyze` query params → cache JSON head keys. Renaming or adding a param means touching all five plus `cachedParamsMatch()` and the `_cached_analysis_params()` regex (see the threshold→margin change `c84b7d8` and the min_duration addition).
|
||||
- **Analysis cache:** results stored as `<analyses-dir>/<file>.analysis.json` keyed by margin+min_gap+min_duration; orphans pruned at web startup. In Docker the recordings mount is **read-only** for the web container, so docker-compose layers a read-write `./recordings/analyses` bind mount over it. The `detector`, `margin`, `min_gap`, and `min_duration` keys MUST stay first in the cache JSON — `_cached_analysis_params()` reads only the first 256 bytes to avoid parsing the large embedded result. `detector` is `DETECTOR_VERSION`: bump it whenever detection/scoring changes make old cached results wrong (e.g. v2 = onset-capped scores); caches with another version (or missing keys) never match and get overwritten on the next analyse.

- **Analyze responses:** `/api/analyze` returns `rms_display` (~800 points), never the full per-window RMS list (~45x larger). Since the waveform SVG was removed (user is blind, see webui notes) the bundled UI no longer reads `rms_display` at all — it stays in the payload for API stability and because cached results embed it.
|
||||
- **Analyze responses:** `/api/analyze` returns only `sections`, `duration`, `window` — no RMS data of any kind. `rms_display` (~800-point waveform preview) and the full per-window list were dropped when the waveform SVGs were removed (user is blind, see webui notes). Old caches that embed `rms`/`rms_display` are still valid; both keys are popped when serving from cache, so no DETECTOR_VERSION bump was needed.

- **Section playback uses clips, not seeks:** `/api/clip?file&start&end` decodes the slice server-side (wave/soundfile) and returns a standalone 16-bit WAV with exact Content-Length (capped at `CLIP_MAX_SECONDS`), `Cache-Control: private` so re-listening is free. The UI plays chips/J-K through the bottom clip bar (`clipQueue` in webui.html); seeking the full file only happens via "Open in file". Rationale (finding): libsndfile writes FLAC **without a SEEKTABLE**, so a browser seek bisects the whole multi-hundred-MB file with Range requests — seeking big FLACs in `<audio>` is inherently slow and must not be reintroduced as the primary navigation. Server-side `sf.SoundFile.seek()` on local disk is fast and frame-accurate.
|
||||
- **HTTP/1.1 keep-alive:** `_Handler.protocol_version = 'HTTP/1.1'`; every response path must set an accurate `Content-Length`. `_copy_to_response()` force-closes the connection if it under-delivers (file truncated mid-serve).
|
||||
- **Live playback:** for files listed in status.json, `/stream/` patches the header on the fly so the browser sees the duration recorded so far and can seek; responses get `Cache-Control: no-store`. WAV: `_live_wav_header` derives sizes from the byte count. FLAC: `_live_flac_header` parses the sample count out of the last frame header in the file tail (CRC-8-verified to reject false sync matches) and rewrites STREAMINFO total_samples — duration is NOT derivable from byte size for FLAC.
