# CLAUDE.md

Guidance for Claude Code when working in this repository.

## Rules

- **Always update `README.md`** when user-facing behaviour changes (flags, endpoints, Docker setup, features), and **commit it in the same commit** as the code change. README is the external reference; CLAUDE.md documents internals.
- Run `python -m pytest tests/` after changing `isr.py` (tests cover the recorder only).

## Files

| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `isr.py` | Recorder: streams (Icecast/HTTP) + ALSA soundcards, time-aligned file splits |
| `web.py` | Archive browser: HTTP server, file listing, RMS loudness analysis, cut/delete |
| `webui.html` | Single-page UI (HTML/CSS/JS), loaded by `web.py` at startup — must sit next to `web.py` and be copied in the Dockerfile |
| `config.ini` | Recording sources; copy from `config.example.ini`. `[general]` gives defaults, every other section is a source (`type = stream` or `type = soundcard`) |
| `asound.conf` | dsnoop device `shared_mic` so ISR and other ALSA apps can share a soundcard |

## Commands

```bash
python isr.py [config.ini]        # recorder; --list-devices to list ALSA inputs
python web.py                     # web UI on :8080 (--dir, --port, --threshold, --min-gap, --analyses-dir)
python -m pytest tests/           # test suite
docker compose up -d / down       # web UI mapped to host port 8050
```

Dependencies: `requests` (streams), `numpy` + `soundfile` (FLAC output and FLAC/waveform analysis — both optional, code degrades gracefully).

## Non-obvious internals

- **Recorder/web coupling is one file:** `RecorderManager` atomically writes `recordings/status.json` every 2 s listing in-progress files; deleted on clean shutdown. `web.py` reads it to show REC badges and to refuse analyse/cut/delete on active files. In-progress WAV/FLAC headers are unfinalized, so durations are not read for active files.
- **Stream splits:** OGG/Opus/FLAC codec headers are extracted from the first ~16 KB of each connection and prepended to every split file so each file plays standalone. A new file is always opened on reconnect (gap in stream). MP3/AAC need no headers.
- **Split timing:** files split at clock-aligned boundaries (`get_next_split_time()`), e.g. `split_minutes = 60` → on the hour.
- **ALSA:** capture spawns `arecord` as a subprocess, raw PCM read in 100 ms chunks by a thread. Device spec resolution: `default` → exact `hw:X,Y` → partial name → fallback to any literal ALSA PCM name (so `shared_mic` from asound.conf works without appearing in `arecord -l`).
- **Shutdown:** SIGTERM is converted to KeyboardInterrupt in `main()`; `RecorderManager.stop()` joins all threads against a single shared 25 s deadline to stay inside Docker's `stop_grace_period: 30s`.
- **Analysis cache:** results stored as `<analyses-dir>/<file>.analysis.json` keyed by threshold+min_gap; orphans pruned at web startup. In Docker the recordings mount is **read-only** for the web container, so the cache uses a separate `./analyses` bind mount.
- **Path safety:** every file parameter in `web.py` goes through `_safe_path()`, which resolves and verifies the path stays inside the recordings dir.
- **dsnoop in Docker:** sharing the soundcard requires `asound.conf` on the host *and* `ipc: host` in docker-compose (dsnoop uses shared memory across the container boundary).
