Summary of Changes

Hello @rmusser01, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request represents a substantial effort to modernize and streamline the application's user interface, with a particular focus on the media ingestion and RAG/embeddings features. It involves a comprehensive cleanup of outdated design and implementation documentation, replaced by new, consolidated guides for UI development. Concurrently, the core ingestion UI has been completely rebuilt for a more intuitive and robust user experience, supported by a newly established and extensive UI testing framework.

Highlights

  • Comprehensive Documentation Overhaul: This PR undertakes a massive documentation cleanup, removing numerous outdated design and implementation summaries related to various UI features, including chunking, chat artifacts, chat dictionaries, chat tabs, and RAG search.
  • Modernized Ingestion UI: The ingestion UI has been completely rewritten with a modern, card-based design, a global drag-and-drop zone, and a live activity feed, significantly enhancing the user experience. Existing ingestion tabs now leverage a factory pattern for UI creation.
  • Enhanced UI Testing Infrastructure: A substantial amount of new UI tests and helper utilities have been added, establishing a robust testing framework to ensure the quality and stability of the redesigned UI components.
  • Streamlined Embeddings/RAG UI Development: Old embeddings UI components and windows have been removed, replaced by a consolidated documentation strategy for building new RAG/Embeddings UIs, streamlining future development in this area.
  • General UI Cleanup and Refinements: Minor CSS adjustments and layout fixes have been applied to existing files, alongside the removal of unnecessary bash permissions in a Claude configuration file, contributing to overall UI cleanliness and security.

Code Review

This pull request is a significant cleanup and refactoring effort, primarily focused on the Ingestion UI and related documentation. A large number of outdated design documents and UI components have been removed, and replaced with a more modern, unified ingestion workflow and a comprehensive new test suite. The changes also include security improvements by removing broad command execution permissions and fixing broken links in documentation.

My review focuses on improving the maintainability of the new code and documentation. I've pointed out a potential issue with a directory name containing a space, which can cause problems with tooling. I've also suggested improvements to a new integration test to make it more robust and less brittle by using stable selectors and better waiting mechanisms. Overall, this is a very positive set of changes that modernizes a key part of the application.

While this change correctly fixes the link, the new path Docs/Development/SplashScreen%20s/SPLASH_SCREEN_GUIDE.md contains a space (%20). Directory and file names with spaces can cause issues with command-line tools, scripts, and URL handling. It's a best practice to avoid them.

Consider renaming the SplashScreen s directory to SplashScreens (or splash_screens) and updating the links accordingly. This will improve maintainability and prevent potential issues in the future.

Importing inside a method, as done here with from ..UI.Ingest_Window import IngestWindow, is generally discouraged as it can hide dependencies and potentially lead to circular import issues. This implementation also creates a tight coupling between ToolsSettingsWindow and IngestWindow.

A more robust and decoupled approach would be to use Textual's messaging system. This window could post a custom message, and the parent screen or IngestWindow itself could listen for it and trigger the refresh. This removes the direct dependency and improves modularity.

                    # Post a message to notify the app of the style change.
                    # The main app can then handle refreshing the UI.
                    from ..app import UIStyleChanged # Assuming the message class is defined in app.py or a shared location
                    self.post_message(UIStyleChanged(new_style=ingest_ui_style))
                    logger.info(f"Posted UIStyleChanged message for style: {ingest_ui_style}")

Code Review

This pull request introduces a significant amount of documentation and refactoring, primarily focused on organizing documentation files into a more logical structure. It also adds a new "Claude Code File Audit System" with associated scripts and configuration.

My main concerns are with the new configuration files (.claude/settings.local.json and Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/project_settings.json), which contain hardcoded absolute paths specific to a single user's machine. This is a critical issue that will prevent the project from being portable and usable by other developers or in CI/CD environments.

I've also pointed out a broken link in the documentation and a few minor areas for improvement, such as removing duplicate permissions and adopting more reactive patterns in a new UI widget.

The large-scale file reorganization and addition of new documentation are positive changes that improve the project's structure and clarity. The removal of old, obsolete documents is also a welcome cleanup.

UI Building Flow - Step by Step

## Issues Encountered and Solutions

### Issue 1: Reactive System Incompatibility
**Problem**: Textual's reactive system doesn't play well with dynamic widget creation
**Solution**: Use explicit mount() calls and manage step lifecycle manually

### Issue 2: CSS Build System
**Problem**: CSS file naming mismatch (_wizard.tcss vs _wizards.tcss)
**Solution**: Renamed file to match expected convention in build_css.py

### Issue 3: Step Validation Timing
**Problem**: Validation called before widgets fully mounted
**Solution**: Added on_show/on_hide lifecycle methods for proper timing

### Issue 4: Import Dependencies
**Problem**: Optional embeddings dependencies causing import errors
**Solution**: Kept dependency checks in wizard, show appropriate error UI

### Issue 5: Progress Bar Updates
**Problem**: Progress bar not updating from background thread
**Solution**: Use call_from_thread() for UI updates from worker

### Issue 6: Modal vs Embedded Usage
**Problem**: Need both modal and embedded wizard variants
**Solution**: Created SimpleEmbeddingsWizard for embedding, EmbeddingsWizardScreen for modal

---

## Performance Optimizations Implemented

1. **Lazy Content Loading**: Content items loaded only when step becomes active
2. **Limited Initial Display**: Show only first 50 items to prevent UI freeze
3. **Efficient CSS**: Used Textual's built-in animations vs custom
4. **Reactive Minimize**: Reduced reactive attribute usage where not needed
1. Entry Point

---
- User clicks "Ingest Content" tab in main app
- app.py line 1575 loads: ("ingest", IngestWindow, "ingest-window")

## Future Enhancements
2. IngestWindow Layout

1. **Batch Processing**: Allow multiple collections in one wizard run
2. **Template System**: Save/load wizard configurations
3. **Real Integration**: Connect to actual embedding creation logic
4. **Error Recovery**: Resume interrupted processing
5. **Analytics**: Track wizard completion rates and drop-off points
- Ingest_Window.py line 348: compose() creates left sidebar with navigation buttons
- Line 362: Creates "Video (Local)" button with ID ingest-nav-local-video

---
3. Video Button Click

## Success Metrics (To Be Measured)
- When user clicks "Video (Local)" button
- Event handler calls compose_local_video_tab() (line 792-798)
- This calls: window = create_ingest_ui(self.app_instance, media_type="video")

- **Time to Completion**: Target < 3 minutes (achieved in UI flow)
- **Step Completion Rate**: Track which steps users abandon
- **Error Rate**: Monitor validation failures
- **User Feedback**: Collect satisfaction ratings
4. Factory Creates UI

---
- IngestUIFactory.py line 42-43:
if media_type == "video":
return VideoIngestWindowRedesigned(app_instance)

## Conclusion
5. VideoIngestWindowRedesigned

The implementation successfully transformed the embeddings UI from a complex, tab-based interface into an intuitive wizard experience. The use of Textual's reactive system and CSS capabilities enabled smooth animations and a modern feel. The wizard pattern with progressive disclosure significantly reduces cognitive load while maintaining flexibility for power users through the advanced settings panel.
- This is in Ingest_Local_Video_Window.py (the file we've been working on)
- Inherits from BaseMediaIngestWindow
- Has all the advanced features we added

Key achievements:
- ✅ Step-by-step guided flow
- ✅ Visual content selection
- ✅ Smart presets with advanced options
- ✅ Real-time progress visualization
- ✅ Clean, maintainable architecture
- ✅ Smooth animations and transitions
6. BaseMediaIngestWindow Structure

The new UI is ready for user testing and feedback collection.
- base_media_ingest_window.py line 105-125: compose() method builds:
with VerticalScroll(classes="ingest-main-scroll"):
yield from self.create_status_dashboard() # Status at top
yield from self.create_mode_toggle() # Simple/Advanced toggle
with Container(classes="essential-section"): # Basic fields
yield from self.create_file_selector()
yield from self.create_basic_metadata()
with Container(classes="media-options-section"): # Video-specific options
yield from self.create_media_specific_options()
yield from self.create_process_button() # Submit button at bottom

7. Video-Specific Options

- Ingest_Local_Video_Window.py line 94-147: create_media_specific_options() creates:
- Video Processing Options (extract audio, download video, time range)
- Transcription Options (provider, model, language, diarization, VAD, timestamps)
- Analysis Options (enable analysis, prompts, user/system prompts)
- Chunking Options (method, size, overlap)

The Problem

The issue is that when you click "Video (Local)" in the sidebar, you're seeing broken UI because:

1. CSS isn't loading properly - The status dashboard and mode toggle are rendering as empty boxes
2. Mode toggle might not be working - Advanced sections may be hidden when they should be visible
3. Container sizing issues - Empty boxes taking up too much space

Manual Fix Steps

Here's what you need to manually check/fix:

Step 1: Verify the Factory is Working

# Check if VideoIngestWindowRedesigned is actually being imported/created
grep -n "VideoIngestWindowRedesigned" tldw_chatbook/Widgets/Media_Ingest/IngestUIFactory.py

Step 2: Check CSS is Loading

# Rebuild CSS to ensure changes are applied
./build_css.sh

Step 3: Test the UI Creation

Create a simple test script:
# test_video_ui.py
from tldw_chatbook.Widgets.Media_Ingest.IngestUIFactory import IngestUIFactory

class MockApp:
def __init__(self):
self.app_config = {"api_settings": {}}

app = MockApp()
widget = IngestUIFactory.create_ui(app, "video")
print(f"Created widget: {widget}")
print(f"Widget class: {widget.__class__.__name__}")

Step 4: Check Container Visibility

The issue might be the status dashboard and mode toggle sections are:
1. Rendering but invisible (CSS display: none)
2. Taking up space but empty (height issues)
3. Not mounting properly (widget composition errors)

Would you like me to help you debug any specific part of this flow, or do you want to start by running one of these diagnostic steps?

> No, I'm going to rebuild the UI and need to understand how to do so
⏺ Got it! Let me walk you through how to build a new ingestion UI from scratch and where to put the files.

UI Architecture Overview

File Structure

tldw_chatbook/
├── UI/
│ └── Ingest_Window.py # Main ingest window with sidebar nav
├── Widgets/Media_Ingest/
│ ├── IngestUIFactory.py # Factory that chooses which UI to use
│ ├── base_media_ingest_window.py # Base class with common functionality
│ ├── Ingest_Local_Video_Window.py # VideoIngestWindowRedesigned class
│ └── [other media types...]
└── css/
├── components/_forms.tcss # Form styling
├── features/_ingest.tcss # Ingest-specific styling
└── tldw_cli_modular.tcss # Built CSS file

Step 1: Create Your New Video Ingestion UI

Option A: Replace Existing File

Edit tldw_chatbook/Widgets/Media_Ingest/Ingest_Local_Video_Window.py

Option B: Create New File

Create tldw_chatbook/Widgets/Media_Ingest/MyVideoIngestWindow.py

Step 2: Basic UI Class Structure

# MyVideoIngestWindow.py
from typing import TYPE_CHECKING
from textual.app import ComposeResult
from textual.containers import Container, VerticalScroll, Horizontal
from textual.widgets import Static, Button, Input, Label, Select, Checkbox, TextArea
from textual import on

if TYPE_CHECKING:
from tldw_chatbook.app import TldwCli

class MyVideoIngestWindow(Container):
"""Your custom video ingestion window."""

def __init__(self, app_instance: 'TldwCli', **kwargs):
super().__init__(**kwargs)
self.app_instance = app_instance

def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
"""Build your UI here."""
with VerticalScroll(classes="my-video-ingest-scroll"):
# Your UI elements go here
yield Static("Video Ingestion", classes="title")

# File selection
with Container(classes="file-section"):
yield Label("Select Video Files:")
yield Button("Browse Files", id="browse-files")
yield Container(id="file-list") # Will show selected files

# URL input
with Container(classes="url-section"):
yield Label("Or Enter URLs:")
yield TextArea(
text="# Enter video URLs here...",
id="url-input",
classes="url-textarea"
)

# Advanced options
with Container(classes="options-section"):
yield Label("Transcription Options:")
yield Checkbox("Enable Speaker Diarization", id="diarization")
yield Checkbox("Enable VAD", id="vad")
yield Checkbox("Include Timestamps", value=True, id="timestamps")

yield Label("Analysis Options:")
yield Checkbox("Enable Analysis", id="enable-analysis")
yield TextArea(
text="# User prompt for analysis...",
id="user-prompt",
classes="prompt-textarea"
)
yield TextArea(
text="# System prompt for analysis...",
id="system-prompt",
classes="prompt-textarea"
)

# Process button
yield Button("Process Video", id="process-video", variant="primary")

@on(Button.Pressed, "#browse-files")
async def handle_browse_files(self):
"""Handle file selection."""
# Your file selection logic
pass

@on(Button.Pressed, "#process-video")
async def handle_process(self):
"""Handle video processing."""
# Your processing logic
pass

Step 3: Register Your UI in the Factory

Edit tldw_chatbook/Widgets/Media_Ingest/IngestUIFactory.py:

# Add your import at the top
from .MyVideoIngestWindow import MyVideoIngestWindow

class IngestUIFactory:
@staticmethod
def create_ui(app_instance: 'TldwCli', media_type: str = "video") -> Container:
# Replace the video case
if media_type == "video":
return MyVideoIngestWindow(app_instance) # <-- Use your class
elif media_type == "audio":
# ... other cases unchanged

Step 4: Add CSS Styling

Create your styles in tldw_chatbook/css/components/_forms.tcss:

/* Your custom video ingestion styles */
.my-video-ingest-scroll {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
padding: 2;
}

.title {
text-style: bold;
color: $primary;
margin-bottom: 2;
text-align: center;
}

.file-section, .url-section, .options-section {
margin-bottom: 2;
padding: 1;
border: round $primary;
background: $surface;
}

.url-textarea, .prompt-textarea {
min-height: 5;
max-height: 10;
margin-bottom: 1;
border: solid $primary;
padding: 1;
}

.url-textarea:focus, .prompt-textarea:focus {
border: solid $accent;
background: $accent 10%;
}

/* Make checkboxes more visible */
Checkbox {
margin: 1 0;
}

/* Style the process button */
Button#process-video {
width: 100%;
height: 3;
margin-top: 2;
text-style: bold;
}

Build the CSS:

./build_css.sh

Step 5: Test Your UI

Quick Test Script:

# test_my_ui.py
from textual.app import App
from tldw_chatbook.Widgets.Media_Ingest.IngestUIFactory import IngestUIFactory

class TestApp(App):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.app_config = {"api_settings": {}}

def compose(self):
yield IngestUIFactory.create_ui(self, "video")

if __name__ == "__main__":
app = TestApp()
app.run()

Run it:
python test_my_ui.py

Step 6: Alternative - Bypass the Factory Entirely

If you want to completely bypass the existing system:

Edit tldw_chatbook/UI/Ingest_Window.py

Find the compose_local_video_tab method around line 792:

def compose_local_video_tab(self) -> ComposeResult:
"""Composes the Video tab content for local media ingestion."""
# REPLACE this line:
# window = create_ingest_ui(self.app_instance, media_type="video")

# WITH direct instantiation of your class:
from ..Widgets.Media_Ingest.MyVideoIngestWindow import MyVideoIngestWindow
window = MyVideoIngestWindow(self.app_instance)

self._local_video_window = window
yield window

Key Points:

1. All UI elements must be yielded in the compose() method
2. Event handlers use @on decorator with CSS selectors
3. CSS classes are applied with classes="my-class-name"
4. Factory pattern lets you swap UIs without changing core code
5. Always rebuild CSS after making style changes
6. Test incrementally - start simple and add features

This gives you complete control to build exactly what you want. Start with the basic structure above and add features one by one. Want me to explain any specific part in more detail?

The content of this file appears to be a developer's conversational notes or a scratchpad for debugging a UI issue, rather than formal documentation. It includes a Q&A format (e.g., > No, I'm going to rebuild the UI...) which is unusual for documentation. Consider replacing this with a structured guide or moving these notes to a more appropriate location if they are for personal reference.

Code Review

This pull request primarily focuses on cleaning up, reorganizing, and adding a significant amount of documentation related to UI refactoring and architectural improvements. The changes are extensive and provide valuable context for the ongoing development. I've identified a few issues in the configuration and documentation files that should be addressed. Specifically, there are portability and security concerns in .claude/settings.local.json due to a hardcoded path and an overly permissive setting. Additionally, there are minor consistency issues in some of the new markdown files.

The link path has been updated to include a URL-encoded space (%20). It's generally better to avoid spaces in file and directory names within a code repository to prevent potential issues with tooling and to improve readability. Consider renaming the directory from "SplashScreen s" to "SplashScreens" or "splash-screens" and updating the link accordingly.

This command contains a hardcoded user-specific path (/Users/appledev/...). While this is a local settings file, it's best practice to avoid committing user-specific paths. Consider using a relative path or an environment variable to make this configuration more portable for other developers.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 4 (Complex) | ⏱️ ~45 minutes

Areas requiring extra attention:

  • .claude/settings.local.json: Security-sensitive configuration with hook definitions, matcher patterns, and permission tightening. Verify that removed entries do not break essential workflows and that new audit hooks trigger correctly with proper timeouts and error handling.
  • Audit System (audit_agent.sh, audit_config.json, global_settings.json, project_settings.json): New security-monitoring tooling with sensitive data detection patterns and code quality rules. Validate regex patterns for false positives/negatives, ensure proper file handling and error logging, and confirm integration with CI/CD and pre-commit hooks.
  • Refactoring Documentation Scope: ~30+ new documentation files covering architectural changes, refactoring plans, and implementation guides. While documentation-only, the breadth and interconnection of these docs suggest active, multi-phase refactoring initiatives; cross-reference for consistency and ensure migration guidance aligns across related docs.
  • Documentation Deletions: Removal of ~10 obsolete docs (Chat-Tabs-*.md, CHUNKING-UI-IMPLEMENTATION-SUMMARY.md, etc.) suggests completed or abandoned initiatives; confirm that deprecated docs are not referenced elsewhere and that users are directed to replacement docs where applicable.

Poem

🐰 A code audit hops on board,
Pre and post hooks now adored,
Security checks dance and play,
While refactoring docs pave the way—
Tighter rules, cleaner sight,
The warren's code shines bright!

1-327: Separate conversational notes from formal documentation.

This file mixes structured documentation (Steps 1–7, "Manual Fix Steps") with Q&A dialogue starting at line 98. The conversational portion comprises roughly 60% of the content, making it unsuitable for a development documentation file. The past reviewer flagged this concern, and it remains unaddressed.

Recommendation: Extract the Q&A content (lines 98–327) into a separate file (e.g., Embeddings-Improve-4-Notes.md or a discussion document), keeping this file focused on the step-by-step UI building workflow and diagnostic procedures. This improves maintainability and clarity for developers referencing this documentation.

182-183: Consider using jq for more robust JSON parsing.

Using grep and cut to parse JSON is fragile and can break with formatting changes. Since jq appears to be available in the project, it would provide more reliable parsing.

Apply this diff:

-    tool_name=$(echo "$input" | grep -o '"tool"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*"[^"]*"' | cut -d'"' -f4)
-    file_path=$(echo "$input" | grep -o '"file_path"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*"[^"]*"' | cut -d'"' -f4)

40-41: Remove duplicate permission entry.

Line 41 duplicates the Bash(pytest:*) permission from line 40.

Apply this diff:

       "Bash(pytest:*)",

       "Bash(mkdir:*)",

61-61: Critical: Remove hardcoded user-specific path.

This absolute path /Users/appledev/Working/tldw_chatbook_dev/ is hardcoded to a specific user's machine, making the configuration non-portable. This will cause test execution to fail for other developers and in CI/CD environments.

Apply this diff:

-      "Bash(python -m pytest /Users/appledev/Working/tldw_chatbook_dev/Tests/ChaChaNotesDB/ -v)",

🧹 Nitpick comments (31)
Docs/Development/notes-screen-refactoring-summary.md (2)

43-88: Documentation quality is strong, but consider adding implementation details.

The Benefits Achieved section clearly articulates the value of the refactoring. The before/after code examples effectively illustrate the architectural improvements. However, consider adding:

  1. Specific line counts or metrics showing complexity reduction (e.g., "Removed X reactive attributes from app.py")
  2. Performance implications (if any) of moving to message-based communication
  3. Backward compatibility notes for any deprecated patterns
  4. References to test coverage or CI validation that confirms the refactoring works correctly

96-105: Testing strategy is too high-level; provide concrete test examples.

The testing strategy mentions state management and message passing tests, but the examples are skeletal. To help developers implement and verify the refactoring correctly, consider expanding with:

  1. Example of testing async operations (auto-save worker)
  2. Example of message handler verification
  3. Example of reactive state change verification
  4. Integration test showing end-to-end note save flow

This would make the documentation more actionable and reduce ambiguity during implementation.

Docs/Development/Sidebar-Unification-1.md (1)

65-65: Use hyphen for compound adjective.

Line 65 should read "sidebar-specific styles" instead of "sidebar specific styles" when using this as a compound adjective. This improves clarity and follows English grammar conventions.

11-28: Add language specifications to all code blocks for markdown compliance.

Several code blocks are missing language identifiers. Add python for Python code and appropriate identifiers for other block types. This helps with syntax highlighting and follows markdown best practices.

Example fixes:

  • Line 11: Change ```\n to ```mermaid\n (or ```text)`
  • Line 43: Change ```python\n to add python (already correct if not shown)
  • Lines 166, 193: All need language specifiers

Apply language specs to all fenced code blocks:

-```
+```python

This ensures proper syntax highlighting and markdown validation compliance.

Also applies to: 43-58, 166-170, 193-200

Docs/Development/state-decomposition-analysis.md (1)

4-4: Date formatting: optional comma after year.

Per style guides, dates in month-day-year format may include a comma after the year when followed by additional text: "August 15, 2025, Current State:". However, this is optional in modern usage and not critical.

Docs/Development/widget-refactoring-patterns.md (1)

4-4: Date formatting: optional comma after year.

Per style guides, the date "August 15, 2025" may include a comma after the year when followed by additional text. This is optional in modern usage.

Docs/Development/Embeddings-Windows-Implementation-Guide.md (1)

38-78: Add language specification to component hierarchy diagram code block.

The ASCII diagram at line 38 should have a language specification. Use ```text or ```mermaid depending on intent (text for ASCII art, mermaid for diagram syntax).

-```
+```text

Docs/Development/css-consolidation-strategy.md (1)

1-50: Fix markdown formatting issues flagged by static analysis.

Lines 4 and 43 have formatting issues detected by markdownlint:

  • Line 4: Date format "August 15, 2025" would follow some style guides with a trailing comma: "August 15, 2025,"
  • Line 43: The directory structure block lacks a language identifier for the fenced code block (should be ```text or similar)

These are minor style/formatting concerns that improve consistency and tool compatibility.

Docs/Development/Textual-Tamagotchis.md (1)

1-100: Document scope may be tangential to PR objectives on ingestion UI fixes.

While this is comprehensive documentation for a Tamagotchi widget system, it doesn't directly support the PR's stated objective of "Fix for Ingestion UIs. Hopefully, evals and Embeddings as well." The system appears well-designed but consider whether this feature is in scope for the current ingestion/embeddings UI cleanup effort.

Additionally, static analysis flags line 12 for invalid link fragments and line 61 for missing code block language specification. These formatting issues should be addressed for consistency with the rest of the documentation.

Docs/Development/textual-best-practices-analysis.md (1)

1-275: Comprehensive audit report with fair assessment; minor formatting corrections needed.

This analysis provides balanced evaluation of the tldw_chatbook codebase against Textual best practices. The scoring (6.5/10), identified strengths, and critical issues are well-documented with concrete evidence. The conditional renewal recommendation with specific metrics is constructive.

Several static analysis issues can be improved:

  • Lines 14 and 232: Use actual headings (## syntax) instead of bold emphasis for section titles
  • Line 4: Date format "August 13, 2025" could follow style guide with trailing comma
  • Minor writing improvements suggested at lines 219 and 252

These are formatting/style refinements that don't affect the substantive audit findings.

Docs/Development/Chat/Chat-redux.md (1)

1-100: Comprehensive refactoring plan; verify scope alignment with ingestion UI fixes mentioned in PR.

This Chat redux document provides extensive architectural analysis and refactoring strategy. The anti-patterns are well-identified with code examples, and the proposed solutions follow Textual best practices. The phased migration approach and ADRs are valuable.

However, given the PR objective states "Fix for Ingestion UIs. Hopefully, evals and Embeddings as well," verify that this extensive Chat Window refactoring is in scope. The document's scale (~1150 lines covering complete architectural overhaul) suggests this may be a parallel refactoring effort.

Minor formatting: Several fenced code blocks lack language identifiers (lines 163, 223, 236, 256, 781). Mark these appropriately (e.g., ```python, ```text).

Docs/Development/Embeddings-UI.md (1)

1-100: Strong embeddings UI guide with formatting cleanup needed.

This document provides practical implementation guidance for RAG/embeddings UI with Textual. The step-by-step approach, file structure, and code templates make it easy to follow. The MyRAGWindow class template is comprehensive, and the CSS styling provides a solid foundation.

However, multiple formatting issues require fixing:

  • Lines 39, 307, 310, 434, 458, 478: Headers should start at beginning of line (no indentation before #)
  • Lines 322, 400, 410, 416: Remove extra spaces inside emphasis markers (e.g., * text **text*)

These are structural formatting issues that will improve markdown compliance. The content itself directly supports the PR objective of fixing embeddings UI.

Docs/Development/NewIngestWindow-Extension-Guide.md (1)

29-29: Fix markdown formatting issues flagged by static analysis.

The document has two minor formatting issues:

  1. Line 29: The code block at line 29 is missing a language specifier. Change ``` to ``` Component or appropriate language.

  2. Line 80: The parameter reference URL is bare. Wrap it or convert to proper markdown link: [LocalVideoProcessor.process_videos()](URL).

These are cosmetic but help with documentation rendering in various tools.

Also applies to: 80-80

Docs/Development/Textual-LLM-Use-1.md (2)

1259-1275: Add import statement to the FormData Pydantic example for completeness.

At lines 1261–1265, the FormData class uses BaseModel and EmailStr from Pydantic without showing imports. While the context is clear, adding this line at the top would make the example self-contained and copy-paste ready:

from pydantic import BaseModel, EmailStr, Field, ValidationError

This addresses the prior review comment at line 1261 and improves example quality.


604-604: Fix bare URL at line 604.

Line 604 contains a bare GitHub URL. Convert to proper markdown link format:

[pytest-textual-snapshot](https://github.com/Textualize/pytest-textual-snapshot)
Docs/Development/refactoring-complete-summary.md (1)

85-85: Fix code block language specification at line 85.

Line 85 has a fenced code block without language identifier. Change ``` to ```directory or specify the file structure format.

Docs/Development/refactoring-progress.md (1)

166-166: Fix code block language specification at line 166.

Line 166 has an ASCII progress bar in a fenced code block without language spec. Consider using ```text for clarity.

Docs/Development/textual-refactoring-plan.md (3)

35-41: Add language specifiers to fenced code blocks for proper syntax highlighting.

Several code blocks lack language identifiers (CSS, Python, etc.), which prevents syntax highlighting and violates markdown linting rules.

For example, Line 35 (performance impact block) and Line 58 (CSS changes) should specify language:

- ```
+ ```css
  /* REMOVE these lines */
  *:focus {
      outline: none !important;
  }
  
  /* ADD proper focus styles */
  *:focus {
      outline: 2px solid $accent;
      outline-offset: 2px;
  }

And Lines 100, 112, 145, 169, 196 with Python code should use:

- ```python
+ ```python
  # Code example

Also applies to: 58-84, 315-332


99-110: Replace emphasis with proper markdown headings for section headers.

Lines 99, 111, 145, 169, and 196 use bold emphasis (**Option A:**, etc.) instead of proper markdown headings. This reduces accessibility and violates markdown linting (MD036).

For example:

- **Option A: Pure Tab-Based Navigation (Recommended)**
- ```python
+ ### Option A: Pure Tab-Based Navigation (Recommended)
+ ```python

And:

- **Template 1: List Management**
- ```python
+ ### Template 1: List Management
+ ```python

Apply this pattern to all section headers using emphasis.

Also applies to: 111-122, 145-167, 169-195, 196-217


4-4: Minor: Add comma after year in date references for style consistency.

LanguageTool flagged missing commas after years in dates (Lines 4 and 524).

- **Date:** August 15, 2025  
+ **Date:** August 15, 2025,

This is a minor style preference, but following it improves consistency with formal writing standards.

Also applies to: 524-524

Docs/Development/app-refactoring-plan.md (1)

404-404: Normalize strong emphasis style for consistency.

Line 404 uses underscore (__) for strong emphasis when the document uses asterisks (**) elsewhere. Markdown linting prefers consistent use of one style.

- __init__
+ **init**

Or maintain the file's asterisk convention. Audit the document for any other underscore usage in emphasis contexts and normalize to asterisks.

Docs/Development/app-refactoring-migration.md (1)

36-42: Add language specifiers to code blocks for consistency with Markdown best practices.

Several code blocks in this migration guide lack language identifiers. While the document quality is high, adding language specs improves syntax highlighting and consistency:

- ```bash
+ ```bash
  # Run the refactored version
  python -m tldw_chatbook.app_refactored

And for Python blocks:

- ```python
+ ```python
  # OLD: Screens access app attributes directly

Also applies to: 47-59, 61-74, 124-143, 145-164, 171-182, 184-194, 196-200, 254-266

Docs/Development/app-refactoring-plan-v2.md (2)

1-3: Consider clarifying the v1 vs v2 relationship to avoid confusion.

The document explicitly corrects v1.0 issues (lines 9-17 list "Critical Corrections"). Maintaining both app-refactoring-plan.md (v1) and app-refactoring-plan-v2.md (v2) in the codebase could cause confusion about which to follow.

Recommendation: Either:

  1. Deprecate v1 with a clear notice and redirect developers to v2, or
  2. Archive v1 as app-refactoring-plan-v1-deprecated.md

Add a header comment to v2 clarifying it supersedes v1:

  # App.py Refactoring Plan v2.0
  ## Following Textual Best Practices - Corrected Version
+ 
+ ⚠️ **Note:** This v2.0 plan supersedes v1.0 and corrects critical issues found during initial review. Refer to this version for current guidance.

Also applies to: 9-17


33-64: Add language specifiers to code blocks throughout for consistency and accessibility.

This comprehensive document contains many code blocks (Python, bash, JSON) but some lack language identifiers:

- ```
+ ```python
  class TldwCliRefactored(App):
      """App with properly managed reactive state."""

Ensure all code blocks specify their language:

  • python for Python code
  • bash for shell commands
  • json for JSON configs
  • css for CSS/TCSS

This improves syntax highlighting and follows markdown best practices.

Also applies to: 105-119, 125-254, 260-294, 343-605

Helper_Scripts/Examples/examples/audit_system_demo.py (2)

1-1: Optional: Make script executable to match shebang.

The script includes a shebang but may not have executable permissions.

Run this command to make it executable:

chmod +x Helper_Scripts/Examples/examples/audit_system_demo.py

127-127: Optional: Remove unnecessary f-string prefixes.

Lines 127 and 162 use f-strings without any placeholders, which is unnecessary.

Apply this diff:

-    print(f"\nRecommendations:")
+    print("\nRecommendations:")
-    print(f"\n=== CLEANUP ===")
+    print("\n=== CLEANUP ===")

Also applies to: 162-162

Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/audit_config.json (1)

7-32: Consider refining security patterns to reduce false positives.

The security patterns may trigger on legitimate code like documentation examples, test fixtures, or placeholder values:

  • api_key = "PLACEHOLDER" in configuration templates
  • password = "test123" in test fixtures
  • SQL patterns in f-strings that don't actually create injection risks

Consider adding negative lookaheads or more context-aware patterns:

{
  "name": "hardcoded_api_key",
  "pattern": "(api[_-]?key|apikey)\\s*=\\s*['\"](?!PLACEHOLDER|YOUR_|EXAMPLE|TODO)[^'\"]+['\"]",
  "message": "Hardcoded API key detected (excluding placeholders)",
  "severity": "critical"
}

Or add an exclusions field to specify paths to ignore (e.g., tests/**, docs/**, examples/**).

Docs/Development/Agent-Tools/Claude_Code_File_Audit_System.md (1)

27-30: Optional: Add language identifier to fenced code block.

The fenced code block at line 28 lacks a language identifier. While it contains a flow diagram, you could use text or mermaid to improve rendering.

Apply this diff:

-```
+```text
 User Request → Set Prompt Context → File Operation → Record Operation → LLM Analysis → Audit Record
-```
+```
Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/audit_agent.sh (3)

8-9: Optional: Remove or use unused variables.

The shellcheck warnings correctly identify variables that are declared but never used: AUDIT_CONFIG, PROJECT_CONFIG, old_content, and new_content.

If these variables are intended for future use, add a comment explaining their purpose. Otherwise, remove them to reduce confusion:

-AUDIT_CONFIG="$HOME/.claude/audit_config.json"
-PROJECT_CONFIG=".claude/audit_config.json"
 audit_file() {
     local tool_name="$1"
     local file_path="$2"
-    local old_content="$3"
-    local new_content="$4"

Also applies to: 113-114


1-1: Optional: Make script executable.

The script has a shebang but may not have executable permissions.

Run this command:

chmod +x Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/audit_agent.sh

83-107: Optional: Separate variable declaration and assignment.

Shellcheck recommends declaring and assigning variables separately to avoid masking return values. This is a defensive coding practice that makes failures more visible.

For example:

-    local project_root="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)"
+    local project_root
+    project_root="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)"

Apply similar changes to other declarations on lines 125, 126, 130, 137, 147, and 156.

Also applies to: 125-156

🔇 Additional comments (27)
Docs/Design/Chunking/Chunking_Documentation_Index.md (1)

66-66: Documentation link update verified and correct.

The RAG documentation path has been successfully updated. Verification confirms the new path exists at Docs/Development/RAG/rag_search_modes.md, the old path has been removed, and no stale references remain. No further action needed.

Docs/Development/notes-screen-refactoring-summary.md (1)

1-133: Documentation implementation verified — all refactoring claims are substantiated.

The verification confirms that the documented refactoring is accurately implemented. The codebase contains all referenced components:

  • NotesScreenState dataclass with the documented fields exists in notes_screen.py
  • Message classes (NoteSelected, NoteSaved, NoteDeleted) are implemented with proper initialization signatures
  • Widget files created as documented: notes_editor_widget.py, notes_status_bar.py, notes_toolbar.py
  • NotesScreen architecture follows described patterns (BaseAppScreen inheritance, reactive state management)
  • Worker and reactive patterns match documentation

Additional context: The codebase contains several additional Note_Widgets files beyond those referenced in the documentation (note_creation_modal.py, note_selection_dialog.py, notes_sidebar_left/right.py, notes_sync_widget*.py). These may represent either complementary refactoring or separate prior work. Consider updating the documentation's "Files Modified/Created" section for completeness if these are part of the overall Notes screen refactoring effort.

CHANGELOG.md (1)

13-17: Changelog entry is clean and properly formatted.

The new version entry follows the existing format and Keep a Changelog conventions. The placement after the Unreleased section and the single-line fix description are appropriate.

Docs/Design/SplashScreens.md (1)

287-287: Link path has been corrected from previous formatting issues.

The reference to ../Development/SplashScreens/SPLASH_SCREEN_GUIDE.md now uses proper directory naming (plural form without encoded spaces). This resolves the broken link issue flagged in previous reviews.

Docs/Development/refactoring-fixes-summary.md (1)

1-99: Well-structured refactoring documentation with clear guidance.

This documentation effectively summarizes the fixes applied to app_refactored_v2.py with organized sections, specific line references, test results, and migration guidance. The BEFORE/AFTER comparisons in code snippets clearly illustrate the improvements.

Docs/Development/state-decomposition-analysis.md (1)

1-396: Comprehensive state decomposition analysis with clear implementation roadmap.

This documentation provides thorough guidance for refactoring the monolithic app class into modular state containers. The architecture examples, migration strategy, and success metrics are well-documented and actionable.

Docs/Development/widget-refactoring-patterns.md (1)

1-442: Excellent widget refactoring patterns guide with practical BEFORE/AFTER examples.

This documentation effectively teaches five key refactoring patterns (Query→Reactive, Computed Properties, Message-Based Communication, Recompose, Worker Pattern) with clear code examples and a realistic migration example using ChatWindowEnhanced. The testing patterns and common pitfalls sections add practical value.

Docs/Development/Embeddings-Windows-Implementation-Guide.md (1)

1-1340: Comprehensive embeddings implementation guide with complete architecture and roadmap.

This guide provides thorough documentation including system architecture, core components, API reference, window implementation blueprints, backend integration, advanced features, testing strategy (unit, integration, performance tests), and a phased implementation roadmap. The content is well-organized and includes practical code examples, SQL models, and error handling patterns.

Docs/Development/refactoring-issues-review-v2.md (1)

1-300: Excellent refactoring documentation with clear before/after patterns.

This document provides comprehensive coverage of 10 critical architectural issues and their v2.0 resolutions. Each issue includes the original problem, concrete code examples, and migration guidance. The test results summary and migration safety assessment add credibility and help developers understand the scope of improvements.

The progression from individual issue resolution to broader migration patterns is well-structured and makes the document valuable for both understanding the problems and implementing fixes.

Docs/Development/chat-window-behavior-checklist.md (1)

1-328: Practical and comprehensive test checklist with minor style improvements.

This checklist effectively captures all behaviors that must be preserved during ChatWindowEnhanced refactoring. The organization by feature area (message flow, attachments, voice, etc.) and the inclusion of risk areas and preservation notes make this a valuable testing reference.

Two minor static analysis notes: Lines 26 and 166 contain repeated adverbs that could be varied ("properly" appears twice near "scroll," and "immediately" appears twice near button responses). These are style preferences but could improve clarity.

The 15-20 minute manual test time is realistic for thorough verification.

Docs/Development/Textual-Media-Ingestion-Patterns.md (1)

1-950: Excellent practical patterns guide directly addressing ingestion UI problems.

This document provides proven solutions for common media ingestion UI challenges in Textual. The problem-solution pairing approach makes it immediately actionable:

  • Invisible input widgets → proper CSS height specification
  • Double scrolling issues → single VerticalScroll at correct level
  • Progressive disclosure → simple/advanced mode patterns
  • Input visibility → explicit height and width in CSS

The code examples are practical, the CSS patterns are well-explained, and the accessibility section is thorough. This aligns directly with the PR objective of fixing ingestion UIs.

The patterns (SearchableList, CompactField, SmartCollapsible) are reusable across different ingestion window types, supporting the PR's goal to improve multiple UI areas (evals, embeddings).

Docs/Development/Performance-Profiling-Report.md (1)

1-156: Excellent performance profiling documentation.

This report provides concrete, actionable metrics and analysis. The breakdown of UI composition time (4.7s startup with 85% in ChatWindow) is well-documented, and the proposed CollapsibleLazy pattern is a practical immediate fix. The document effectively identifies the problem (210+ widgets created at startup) and proposes both quick wins and long-term solutions.

One minor observation: the code example at lines 142–154 is incomplete. The on_collapsible_expanded() method should trigger self.mount() but you may want to ensure the expanded state handler is properly wired. Consider adding a brief example of usage showing how to wrap existing Collapsible sections.

Docs/Development/NewIngestWindow-Extension-Guide.md (1)

870-875: Rephrase for clarity at line 880 (Best Practices #2).

The LanguageTool suggestion to replace "Disable submit button" may be a false positive, but consider clarifying: "Disable the submit button until..." reads more naturally than "Disable submit button until...". This is a minor nitpick.

Docs/Development/Textual-LLM-Use-1.md (1)

1172-1172: LanguageTool capitalization suggestion is likely a false positive.

Line 1172 suggests capitalizing "markdown" in documentation references. This is a style preference—the current usage is appropriate. Mark as non-actionable.

Docs/Development/Metrics/STARTUP_METRICS_SUMMARY.md (1)

95-123: Debug Mode documentation is clear and practical.

The new Debug Mode section (lines 95–123) is well-structured. The performance impact breakdown (100-200ms logging overhead, ~50MB memory) is concrete and helpful. The recommendation to keep debug mode disabled in production is appropriate.

One suggestion: Consider adding an example output showing what debug mode logging looks like, similar to the "Example Output" section above. This would help users understand what to expect when enabling debug mode.

Docs/Development/refactoring-complete-summary.md (1)

1-174: Comprehensive refactoring summary with impressive claimed metrics.

This document presents a compelling before/after narrative (5,857 → 514 lines, -91.2% LOC reduction, 100% elimination of direct widget manipulation). The compliance checklist with Textual best practices is thorough.

However, as a code reviewer, I note this appears to be an aspirational/planned document rather than a verified state. To strengthen it:

  1. Link to or reference the actual refactored code (app_refactored_v2.py or equivalent)
  2. Confirm all 4 test suites actually pass in CI
  3. Add a caveat that metrics are based on the refactored implementation

This would help readers understand whether this is a blueprint or an achieved result.

Docs/Development/refactoring-progress.md (1)

1-186: Well-organized progress report with clear status tracking.

This document effectively tracks refactoring progress with completed tasks, metrics, and prioritized next steps. The 5-task grouping (Planning, Accessibility, Navigation, Screen Migration, Testing) is logical.

Minor note: The date formatting suggestions (lines 4, 274) about commas after years are style preferences and can be safely ignored per English style variations.

Docs/Development/refactoring-issues-review.md (1)

1-200: Well-structured issues review with practical solutions.

This document identifies 10 concrete technical issues in the refactoring plan (state management, screen construction, CSS paths, etc.) with clear explanations and corrected implementations. The migration risk assessment table is particularly useful.

The recommendation at lines 192–199 ("DON'T replace app.py yet...") is pragmatic and aligns with best practices for large refactors.

Minor note: Verify these issues are still relevant—some may have been addressed in subsequent updates. Consider cross-referencing with refactoring-complete-summary.md to clarify which issues were resolved.

Docs/Development/navigation-architecture-analysis.md (1)

1-275: Comprehensive navigation architecture analysis with clear migration path.

This document provides an excellent roadmap for migrating from tab-based to screen-based navigation. The rationale (memory efficiency, isolation, performance) is sound, and the 5-phase migration checklist is actionable.

Key strengths:

  • Clear identification of 4 missing screens
  • Concrete before/after benefits table
  • Practical code examples for screen creation and navigation handlers
  • Phased approach reduces risk

Cross-reference note: This aligns well with refactoring-progress.md which states screen migration is 100% complete. Consider updating this document to reflect current status if all screens are now implemented.

Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/README.md (1)

1-141: LGTM! Comprehensive documentation for the audit system.

The README provides clear, well-structured documentation covering all aspects of the audit system including components, features, testing procedures, customization options, and troubleshooting guidance.

Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/global_settings.json (1)

1-61: LGTM! Well-structured global audit configuration.

The configuration properly uses environment variables ($HOME) for portability, includes appropriate timeouts and error handling, and enables auditing for all relevant file operation types.

.claude/settings.local.json (1)

2-31: Verify the relative path to audit_system.sh will work correctly.

The hooks reference ./tldw_chatbook/.claude/audit_system.sh using a relative path. This assumes the command is executed from a specific working directory. If the hooks run from a different directory context, the script won't be found.

Consider using an absolute path with an environment variable or verifying the working directory from which these hooks execute:

-            "command": "./tldw_chatbook/.claude/audit_system.sh post",
+            "command": "$PROJECT_ROOT/.claude/audit_system.sh post",

or

-            "command": "./tldw_chatbook/.claude/audit_system.sh pre",
+            "command": "cd $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel) && .claude/audit_system.sh pre",
Helper_Scripts/Examples/examples/audit_system_demo.py (1)

18-174: LGTM! Excellent demonstration of the audit system.

The demo effectively showcases different implementation qualities (complete, incomplete, deceptive) and demonstrates all audit analysis types. The code is well-structured and includes proper cleanup.

Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/audit_config.json (2)

1-125: Overall configuration structure looks good.

The audit configuration is well-organized with clear separation of concerns between security, code quality, file rules, and project-specific checks. The severity-based actions and reporting setup are appropriate.


59-70: No files currently exceed the 1MB limit.

The verification script found zero files larger than 1MB in the codebase, indicating this configuration setting does not conflict with existing legitimate files. However, consider whether this limit aligns with your project's anticipated needs—particularly if you plan to commit data fixtures, generated code, or bundled assets in the future. If such files are expected or necessary, increase the limit accordingly; otherwise, the current 1MB threshold appears suitable for your current codebase.

Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/project_settings.json (1)

42-78: LGTM! Well-configured project audit and notification settings.

The projectAudit section properly configures Python linting with ruff, defines comprehensive sensitive data patterns, and sets up appropriate notifications. The code quality checks are reasonable.

Docs/Development/Agent-Tools/Claude_Code_File_Audit_System.md (1)

1-309: LGTM! Excellent comprehensive documentation.

This documentation provides thorough coverage of the audit system including architecture, usage patterns, integration points, configuration, best practices, and troubleshooting. The examples are clear and practical.

UI Building Flow - Step by Step

## Issues Encountered and Solutions

### Issue 1: Reactive System Incompatibility
**Problem**: Textual's reactive system doesn't play well with dynamic widget creation
**Solution**: Use explicit mount() calls and manage step lifecycle manually

### Issue 2: CSS Build System
**Problem**: CSS file naming mismatch (_wizard.tcss vs _wizards.tcss)
**Solution**: Renamed file to match expected convention in build_css.py

### Issue 3: Step Validation Timing
**Problem**: Validation called before widgets fully mounted
**Solution**: Added on_show/on_hide lifecycle methods for proper timing

### Issue 4: Import Dependencies
**Problem**: Optional embeddings dependencies causing import errors
**Solution**: Kept dependency checks in wizard, show appropriate error UI

### Issue 5: Progress Bar Updates
**Problem**: Progress bar not updating from background thread
**Solution**: Use call_from_thread() for UI updates from worker

### Issue 6: Modal vs Embedded Usage
**Problem**: Need both modal and embedded wizard variants
**Solution**: Created SimpleEmbeddingsWizard for embedding, EmbeddingsWizardScreen for modal

---

## Performance Optimizations Implemented

1. **Lazy Content Loading**: Content items loaded only when step becomes active
2. **Limited Initial Display**: Show only first 50 items to prevent UI freeze
3. **Efficient CSS**: Used Textual's built-in animations vs custom
4. **Reactive Minimize**: Reduced reactive attribute usage where not needed
1. Entry Point

---
- User clicks "Ingest Content" tab in main app
- app.py line 1575 loads: ("ingest", IngestWindow, "ingest-window")

## Future Enhancements
2. IngestWindow Layout

1. **Batch Processing**: Allow multiple collections in one wizard run
2. **Template System**: Save/load wizard configurations
3. **Real Integration**: Connect to actual embedding creation logic
4. **Error Recovery**: Resume interrupted processing
5. **Analytics**: Track wizard completion rates and drop-off points
- Ingest_Window.py line 348: compose() creates left sidebar with navigation buttons
- Line 362: Creates "Video (Local)" button with ID ingest-nav-local-video

---
3. Video Button Click

## Success Metrics (To Be Measured)
- When user clicks "Video (Local)" button
- Event handler calls compose_local_video_tab() (line 792-798)
- This calls: window = create_ingest_ui(self.app_instance, media_type="video")

- **Time to Completion**: Target < 3 minutes (achieved in UI flow)
- **Step Completion Rate**: Track which steps users abandon
- **Error Rate**: Monitor validation failures
- **User Feedback**: Collect satisfaction ratings
4. Factory Creates UI

---
- IngestUIFactory.py line 42-43:
if media_type == "video":
return VideoIngestWindowRedesigned(app_instance)

## Conclusion
5. VideoIngestWindowRedesigned

The implementation successfully transformed the embeddings UI from a complex, tab-based interface into an intuitive wizard experience. The use of Textual's reactive system and CSS capabilities enabled smooth animations and a modern feel. The wizard pattern with progressive disclosure significantly reduces cognitive load while maintaining flexibility for power users through the advanced settings panel.
- This is in Ingest_Local_Video_Window.py (the file we've been working on)
- Inherits from BaseMediaIngestWindow
- Has all the advanced features we added

Key achievements:
- ✅ Step-by-step guided flow
- ✅ Visual content selection
- ✅ Smart presets with advanced options
- ✅ Real-time progress visualization
- ✅ Clean, maintainable architecture
- ✅ Smooth animations and transitions
6. BaseMediaIngestWindow Structure

The new UI is ready for user testing and feedback collection.
- base_media_ingest_window.py line 105-125: compose() method builds:
with VerticalScroll(classes="ingest-main-scroll"):
yield from self.create_status_dashboard() # Status at top
yield from self.create_mode_toggle() # Simple/Advanced toggle
with Container(classes="essential-section"): # Basic fields
yield from self.create_file_selector()
yield from self.create_basic_metadata()
with Container(classes="media-options-section"): # Video-specific options
yield from self.create_media_specific_options()
yield from self.create_process_button() # Submit button at bottom

7. Video-Specific Options

- Ingest_Local_Video_Window.py line 94-147: create_media_specific_options() creates:
- Video Processing Options (extract audio, download video, time range)
- Transcription Options (provider, model, language, diarization, VAD, timestamps)
- Analysis Options (enable analysis, prompts, user/system prompts)
- Chunking Options (method, size, overlap)

The Problem

The issue is that when you click "Video (Local)" in the sidebar, you're seeing broken UI because:

1. CSS isn't loading properly - The status dashboard and mode toggle are rendering as empty boxes
2. Mode toggle might not be working - Advanced sections may be hidden when they should be visible
3. Container sizing issues - Empty boxes taking up too much space

Manual Fix Steps

Here's what you need to manually check/fix:

Step 1: Verify the Factory is Working

# Check if VideoIngestWindowRedesigned is actually being imported/created
grep -n "VideoIngestWindowRedesigned" tldw_chatbook/Widgets/Media_Ingest/IngestUIFactory.py

Step 2: Check CSS is Loading

# Rebuild CSS to ensure changes are applied
./build_css.sh

Step 3: Test the UI Creation

Create a simple test script:
# test_video_ui.py
from tldw_chatbook.Widgets.Media_Ingest.IngestUIFactory import IngestUIFactory

class MockApp:
def __init__(self):
self.app_config = {"api_settings": {}}

app = MockApp()
widget = IngestUIFactory.create_ui(app, "video")
print(f"Created widget: {widget}")
print(f"Widget class: {widget.__class__.__name__}")

Step 4: Check Container Visibility

The issue might be the status dashboard and mode toggle sections are:
1. Rendering but invisible (CSS display: none)
2. Taking up space but empty (height issues)
3. Not mounting properly (widget composition errors)

Would you like me to help you debug any specific part of this flow, or do you want to start by running one of these diagnostic steps?

> No, I'm going to rebuild the UI and need to understand how to do so
⏺ Got it! Let me walk you through how to build a new ingestion UI from scratch and where to put the files.

UI Architecture Overview

File Structure

tldw_chatbook/
├── UI/
│ └── Ingest_Window.py # Main ingest window with sidebar nav
├── Widgets/Media_Ingest/
│ ├── IngestUIFactory.py # Factory that chooses which UI to use
│ ├── base_media_ingest_window.py # Base class with common functionality
│ ├── Ingest_Local_Video_Window.py # VideoIngestWindowRedesigned class
│ └── [other media types...]
└── css/
├── components/_forms.tcss # Form styling
├── features/_ingest.tcss # Ingest-specific styling
└── tldw_cli_modular.tcss # Built CSS file

Step 1: Create Your New Video Ingestion UI

Option A: Replace Existing File

Edit tldw_chatbook/Widgets/Media_Ingest/Ingest_Local_Video_Window.py

Option B: Create New File

Create tldw_chatbook/Widgets/Media_Ingest/MyVideoIngestWindow.py

Step 2: Basic UI Class Structure

# MyVideoIngestWindow.py
from typing import TYPE_CHECKING
from textual.app import ComposeResult
from textual.containers import Container, VerticalScroll, Horizontal
from textual.widgets import Static, Button, Input, Label, Select, Checkbox, TextArea
from textual import on

if TYPE_CHECKING:
from tldw_chatbook.app import TldwCli

class MyVideoIngestWindow(Container):
"""Your custom video ingestion window."""

def __init__(self, app_instance: 'TldwCli', **kwargs):
super().__init__(**kwargs)
self.app_instance = app_instance

def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
"""Build your UI here."""
with VerticalScroll(classes="my-video-ingest-scroll"):
# Your UI elements go here
yield Static("Video Ingestion", classes="title")

# File selection
with Container(classes="file-section"):
yield Label("Select Video Files:")
yield Button("Browse Files", id="browse-files")
yield Container(id="file-list") # Will show selected files

# URL input
with Container(classes="url-section"):
yield Label("Or Enter URLs:")
yield TextArea(
text="# Enter video URLs here...",
id="url-input",
classes="url-textarea"
)

# Advanced options
with Container(classes="options-section"):
yield Label("Transcription Options:")
yield Checkbox("Enable Speaker Diarization", id="diarization")
yield Checkbox("Enable VAD", id="vad")
yield Checkbox("Include Timestamps", value=True, id="timestamps")

yield Label("Analysis Options:")
yield Checkbox("Enable Analysis", id="enable-analysis")
yield TextArea(
text="# User prompt for analysis...",
id="user-prompt",
classes="prompt-textarea"
)
yield TextArea(
text="# System prompt for analysis...",
id="system-prompt",
classes="prompt-textarea"
)

# Process button
yield Button("Process Video", id="process-video", variant="primary")

@on(Button.Pressed, "#browse-files")
async def handle_browse_files(self):
"""Handle file selection."""
# Your file selection logic
pass

@on(Button.Pressed, "#process-video")
async def handle_process(self):
"""Handle video processing."""
# Your processing logic
pass

Step 3: Register Your UI in the Factory

Edit tldw_chatbook/Widgets/Media_Ingest/IngestUIFactory.py:

# Add your import at the top
from .MyVideoIngestWindow import MyVideoIngestWindow

class IngestUIFactory:
@staticmethod
def create_ui(app_instance: 'TldwCli', media_type: str = "video") -> Container:
# Replace the video case
if media_type == "video":
return MyVideoIngestWindow(app_instance) # <-- Use your class
elif media_type == "audio":
# ... other cases unchanged

Step 4: Add CSS Styling

Create your styles in tldw_chatbook/css/components/_forms.tcss:

/* Your custom video ingestion styles */
.my-video-ingest-scroll {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
padding: 2;
}

.title {
text-style: bold;
color: $primary;
margin-bottom: 2;
text-align: center;
}

.file-section, .url-section, .options-section {
margin-bottom: 2;
padding: 1;
border: round $primary;
background: $surface;
}

.url-textarea, .prompt-textarea {
min-height: 5;
max-height: 10;
margin-bottom: 1;
border: solid $primary;
padding: 1;
}

.url-textarea:focus, .prompt-textarea:focus {
border: solid $accent;
background: $accent 10%;
}

/* Make checkboxes more visible */
Checkbox {
margin: 1 0;
}

/* Style the process button */
Button#process-video {
width: 100%;
height: 3;
margin-top: 2;
text-style: bold;
}

Build the CSS:

./build_css.sh

Step 5: Test Your UI

Quick Test Script:

# test_my_ui.py
from textual.app import App
from tldw_chatbook.Widgets.Media_Ingest.IngestUIFactory import IngestUIFactory

class TestApp(App):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.app_config = {"api_settings": {}}

def compose(self):
yield IngestUIFactory.create_ui(self, "video")

if __name__ == "__main__":
app = TestApp()
app.run()

Run it:
python test_my_ui.py

Step 6: Alternative - Bypass the Factory Entirely

If you want to completely bypass the existing system:

Edit tldw_chatbook/UI/Ingest_Window.py

Find the compose_local_video_tab method around line 792:

def compose_local_video_tab(self) -> ComposeResult:
"""Composes the Video tab content for local media ingestion."""
# REPLACE this line:
# window = create_ingest_ui(self.app_instance, media_type="video")

# WITH direct instantiation of your class:
from ..Widgets.Media_Ingest.MyVideoIngestWindow import MyVideoIngestWindow
window = MyVideoIngestWindow(self.app_instance)

self._local_video_window = window
yield window

Key Points:

1. All UI elements must be yielded in the compose() method
2. Event handlers use @on decorator with CSS selectors
3. CSS classes are applied with classes="my-class-name"
4. Factory pattern lets you swap UIs without changing core code
5. Always rebuild CSS after making style changes
6. Test incrementally - start simple and add features

This gives you complete control to build exactly what you want. Start with the basic structure above and add features one by one. Want me to explain any specific part in more detail?

Add language specifier to code block.

The ASCII architecture diagram is missing a language identifier, which triggers a markdown linter warning. While ASCII art doesn't require a specific language, you should specify one for consistency.

specifier which triggers the markdown linter; update the opening fence to
include a language (e.g., change the leading ``` to ```text) so the block is
explicitly marked as plain text, or alternatively remove the triple-backtick
fences entirely and leave the diagram as a regular indented/formatted text block
to avoid the linter warning.

Add error handling for directory change.

The cd command at line 92 lacks error handling. If the directory change fails, subsequent commands (like npm run lint) will execute in the wrong directory, potentially causing unexpected behavior or errors.

Apply this diff:

-                    cd "$project_root"
+                    cd "$project_root" || return 1
                     npm run lint -- "$file_path" 2>&1 | head -5 >> "$LOG_FILE"

‼️ 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.

In Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/audit_agent.sh around line 92, the
bare cd "$project_root" has no error handling; modify the script to check the cd
exit status and abort with a clear error message if it fails (for example, use
cd "$project_root" || { echo "Failed to change directory to $project_root" >&2;
exit 1; } or equivalent), so subsequent commands do not run in the wrong
directory.

Verify project structure matches configuration expectations.

The projectSpecific.tldw_server section references pyproject.toml and test paths that may not exist in the current project structure.

Verify these paths exist:


🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Check if expected files exist
test -f pyproject.toml && echo "✓ pyproject.toml exists" || echo "✗ pyproject.toml missing"
test -d tldw_Server_API/tests && echo "✓ tldw_Server_API/tests/ exists" || echo "✗ tldw_Server_API/tests/ missing"

Length of output: 56


I found that tldw_Server_API/tests/ does not exist, but pyproject.toml does. Let me search for where tests are actually located in the project.

🏁 Script executed:

```shell
#!/bin/bash
# Find test directories and test files
echo "=== Test Directories ==="
fd -t d '(tests|test)$' --max-depth 5

echo -e "\n=== Test Files ==="
fd -t f 'test.*\.py$' --max-depth 5 | head -20

Let me verify the actual project structure for tldw_Server_API and locate any related tests.

🏁 Script executed:

```shell
#!/bin/bash
# Check for tldw_Server_API directory and structure
echo "=== Looking for tldw_Server_API ==="
fd -t d 'tldw.*API' --max-depth 3

echo -e "\n=== tldw_Server_API contents ==="

Update pytest path in preCommitChecks configuration.

The configuration references tldw_Server_API/tests/, which does not exist. The actual test directory is located at Tests/tldw_api/. Update the pytest command to use the correct path:

"preCommitChecks": [
  "python -m ruff check .",
  "python -m pytest Tests/tldw_api/ -x --tb=short"
]
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In Helper_Scripts/Agent-Tools/Audit-Agent/audit_config.json around lines 71 to
90, the preCommitChecks pytest path points to a nonexistent directory
("tldw_Server_API/tests/"); update the pytest command to reference the actual
tests directory ("Tests/tldw_api/") so the entry becomes the ruff check plus
"python -m pytest Tests/tldw_api/ -x --tb=short".
