Progress

Running record of what has actually landed. Newest entry first. The full design and step list live in the plan file at /config/.claude/plans/i-want-to-create-playful-quiche.md.

Build order

• 1. Repo skeleton — git init (main), cargo init --name ipx, deps pinned, LICENSE, README, this file.
• 2. config.rs + db.rs — TOML config structs + SQLite schema.
• 3. feed.rs — conditional GET, RSS-then-Atom parse, persist entries.
• 4. download.rs — filename derivation + sanitizer, streaming download, infer sniff, HTML rejection, move into place, dedupe, keyword/explicit filters, max_new_per_check. Done when: smoke 1, 2, 4 pass.
• 5. retention.rs — oldest-first quota + age reaper, ipx reap [--dry-run]. Done when: smoke 6 passes.
• 6. ipc.rs + daemon — broadcast event bus, UDS JSON-lines server, TTL scheduler, CLI-proxies-to-daemon. Done when: smoke 3 passes.
• 7. torrent.rs — librqbit, seed to ratio/time, stall abort. Done when: smoke 5 passes.
• 8. OPML + polish — import/export, add/rm/status, tracing setup, systemd unit, README.

Smoke tests

1. ipx add <feed> + ipx fetch → file in download_dir/<Show>/, row in enclosures.
2. ipx fetch again → no re-download, feed skipped for TTL.
3. ipx daemon & + nc -U $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/ipx.sock, send {"cmd":"fetch"} → JSON events; a concurrent ipx fetch proxies to the daemon instead of downloading in parallel.
4. Delete a downloaded file by hand, ipx fetch → NOT re-downloaded.
5. Torrent enclosure → downloads, moves, stops seeding at the configured ratio/time.
6. ipx reap --dry-run under quota pressure → oldest-first hit list; real run flips rows to reaped.

2026-09-09 — Step 3: feed.rs

src/feed.rs: conditional GET (If-None-Match + If-Modified-Since, optional basic auth) and a RSS-first / Atom-fallback parser normalising both into ParsedFeed/Entry/Enclosure. Feed-level itunes:explicit overrides the entry level, as the original did. <ttl> is captured. RSS content:encoded wins over description. Atom enclosures come only from rel="enclosure" links.

GUID: the original hashed the title or description when no guid existed; here the chain is guid → permalink → enclosure URL → title, all stable identifiers, so no hashing and no MD5 dependency. An entry with none of them has nothing to download and is dropped.

db.rs gained http_state, record_feed, touch_feed, set_feed_error, record_entry, record_enclosure. A changed title/description flips read back to 0 — what the original's textDiff was ultimately for, minus the <ins>/<del> markup, which belongs in the UI.

main.rs gained ipx fetch [FEED] [--force]. A failing feed records its error and the scan continues.

Verified: cargo test 10/10. Gate met against a local python3 -m http.server serving the fixtures — first run inserted 4 entries + 4 enclosures across an RSS and an Atom feed; second run showed both skip paths, atomcast: not modified (304) and testcast: not due for 45m (the feed's own ttl=45 beating interval_mins = 0).

Deferred: nothing downloads yet — enclosure rows land in state pending. That is step 4. Next: step 4 — download.rs.

---

2026-09-09 — Step 2: config.rs + db.rs

src/config.rs: serde structs for [general], [torrent] and [feeds.<id>] with defaults, ~ expansion, IPX_CONFIG / IPX_DATA_DIR overrides, save() at mode 0600, Feed::password() (password_env beats a literal password), Torrent::ports() parsing "6881-6889". A missing config file loads as an empty one so a fresh install works. Retention defaults are 0/0 (unlimited, keep forever) — nothing gets deleted until Ray asks for it.

src/db.rs: schema exactly as planned, WAL + busy_timeout, Db::open() idempotent, connection behind a Mutex, feed_summary() for list, now() helper. enclosures.url is UNIQUE — the dedupe key that replaces history.dat.

src/main.rs: clap skeleton with ipx list. Only the subcommands that work exist; the rest arrive with their steps.

Verified: cargo test 5/5 green (config defaults, port-range fallback incl. reversed range, password_env precedence, schema idempotency, enclosure-url uniqueness). Gate met — ipx --config <scratch> list printed both feeds and created state.db once across two runs.

Deferred: nothing. Two dead-code warnings (Config::save, Feed::password) are expected; steps 3 and 8 consume them. Next: step 3 — feed.rs.

Also added chrono 0.4 (std, clock) for RFC-2822 pubDate parsing in step 3.

2026-09-09 — Step 1: repo skeleton

Repo created at /src/ipodderx-rs, default branch main, cargo init --name ipx (edition 2024, rustc 1.95.0). LICENSE (MIT, carrying the 2010 copyright), README with the lineage note, and this file. Hello-world main.rs builds.

Dependency versions pinned today — the later steps are written against these APIs:

crate	version	notes
tokio	1.53.1	rt-multi-thread, macros, fs, io-util, net, sync, time, signal
reqwest	0.13.5	default-features = false; features rustls (not rustls-tls — renamed in 0.13), http2, gzip, stream, json, charset, system-proxy (env-var proxy pickup is opt-in in 0.13)
rss	2.1.1	default features; the with-syndication feature name in my notes does not exist — Atom is handled by the separate crate
atom_syndication	0.12.10
rusqlite	0.40.2	bundled
librqbit	9.0.1	default-features = false; features rust-tls, http-api-client. The default default-tls feature pulls reqwest/native-tls and an OpenSSL sha1 backend (crypto-hash), which fails to build without pkg-config/OpenSSL headers. API not yet exercised — step 7
serde 1.0.229 / serde_json 1.0.151 / toml 1.1.5
clap	4.6.6	derive
infer 0.22.0 / dirs 7.0.0 / anyhow 1.0.104 / opml 1.1.6
tracing 0.1.44 / tracing-subscriber 0.3.23		env-filter

Deferred: nothing.

Gotcha worth keeping: three feature names in the plan were wrong against current crate versions — reqwest/rustls-tls is now rustls, env-var proxy support moved behind system-proxy, and rss/with-syndication does not exist. librqbit's default features drag in OpenSSL; rust-tls is the fix. Whole tree is rustls-only now, no C TLS dependency. Next: step 2 — config.rs + db.rs. (done)
