Previous/current/next sentence in a fixed-height box with a fade, tap to jump. The
highlight is a binary search over sentence starts on audio.currentTime every animation
frame, with forced resync on seeking, seeked, ratechange, play, pause and visibility; the
marked word uses the sentence's own span. Playwright covers seeks, 1.5x/2x, rapid seeks.

Share buttons (toolbar, playlist, driving mode) build #s-magazine?doc=..&article=..&mode=drive; opening it routes to the article and starts driving mode with a Tap-to-play prompt if autoplay is blocked. Ids are validated strictly; access is unchanged.

Also reuses the existing magFmtClock for the contents list (the duplicate
tripped the frontend collision gate).

- fuse_paragraph_blocks joins a paragraph split by a column or page break into one
narration block (reader, podcast source and MP3), keeping source regions for highlighting
- language decided once per article; per-article acronym glossary (LLM classifies unknown
acronyms from context), letter-spelled acronym lists, extended DE/EN database
- core/spelling: dictionary findings (compounds, inflections, line-break hyphens, other-language
words), marked in review and listed per page/article; guarded LLM agent fixes; quality run
now includes the spelling pass
- keep suspended compound hyphens (Programmier- und) when merging regions / building layouts

- Export the region-type picker handlers and magRunPageQuality to the page (they threw
"not defined", so the picker never opened and Find missed text / Verify OCR did nothing)
- Add a unit test that fails when an inline mag* handler is not exported
- Quality audit: pixel-level clipping check on all four box edges, duplicate-article
detection, detected full-page advertisements skipped and shown green (no manual button)
- Driving mode text is karaoke-style (whole article, current sentence and word highlighted)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Quality run: per-page missed-text recovery, guarded OCR re-read and a pixel audit
(uncovered ink, overlapping boxes, clipped box edges); report saved as quality_report.json
- Thumbnail grid: quality-stage colours, flag badge, live per-page indicator for every
batch step (OCR, detection, figure fixing, quality run, audio)
- Pages can be approved as advertisements (not narrated, skipped by quality run)
- Driving mode: +/-15 s, seek bar, playback speed, text and image toggles
- Plus the previously uncommitted 1.53.5 magazine/OCR work in the same tree

Bundles this session's magazine review work: a single "Draw region" tool
replacing six preset-kind buttons; "Table" as a real, non-narrated region
type; uniform auto-OCR for every text-like drawn/re-read region with a
Tesseract fallback when the vision OCR backend is unreachable; a thumbnail
grid view and inline title editing for the article list; batch
approve/reject; standalone MP3 export with embedded title/author/album,
lyrics and cover art (adds mutagen); "Remove all boxes" for starting a
tangled page from scratch; Approve advancing straight to the next article;
a merged, sticky review toolbar; and a fix for stale image previews after
resizing a region's box.
Also fixes several character-portrait rendering biases confirmed live
across this session's DSA audiobook cast (routes/conversation.py): modern
or bald/receding hair regardless of established coverage, armored women
rendering masculinized, duplicated/malformed weapons, a ranged weapon
rendering as a firearm due to a German compound-word regex miss, an
established dwarf rendered with human proportions, and occasional extra
hands or lost non-human species in scene panels.
See CHANGELOG.md [1.43.0] for the full list.

The preview carries each page's regions (percent of the page, type, reading
order) for the reading pass and the labelling pass, drawn over the page image
with a legend. A server restart that killed the import left it "running" for
ever; the status route now reports it as failed. v1.42.0.

- fix: Edit boxes and page-nav controls were dead clicks (handlers never exported
to root); resize from any edge/corner instead of only bottom-right
- feat: two-page spread in review (page images above, OCR lists beneath)
- feat: searchable voice picker for narrator and podcast hosts
- feat: Prepare audio synthesises the whole article ahead of playback; playback
also stays three sentences ahead
- fix: sync index.html cache-busting version with VERSION (was stuck at 1.26.12)

Adds a "Describe" action per figure in article review: sends the cropped
image to the configured vision engine (with fallback) for a type-aware
one- or two-sentence description -- a chart gets a prompt about what it
measures and its trend, a table about headings and what stands out, etc.
Editable before approval. A new "Read figure descriptions" toggle in the
reading controls speaks these where they occur; purely additive, off by
default, and a figure with no description behaves exactly as before.
New core/magazine.py describe_visual_region()/_chain() reuse the same
reliability guards as page OCR (repetition-loop detection, sentence-
boundary truncation). New routes: POST .../images/{id}/describe
(background job), PATCH .../images/{id} (manual edit), descriptions=1 on
the article-text endpoint.
Live-verified end to end against the ingested c't KI Wissen 2026
magazine. Also found and documented a real, config-dependent limitation:
the currently-configured primary vision engine is transcription-only and
returns empty content for any descriptive prompt (confirmed with three
different prompts) -- not a code defect, but description generation
needs a genuinely caption-capable engine reachable as the fallback.
251 tests passing.

Resumes an in-progress, uncommitted change from a previous session: the
live "page image + recognised text" preview shown during ingestion was
reworked to render formatted HTML (styled headings, a figure
placeholder) instead of a plain-text dump, but was left with a
duplication bug, dead code, inline styles, and no tests.
- Fixed duplication: a figure block's own transcribed text (usually its
on-screen UI copy) was rendered as an ordinary paragraph in addition
to the new figure placeholder box. Figure/chart/table/code blocks are
now represented only by the placeholder.
- Furniture/sidebar/pullquote/ad text is shown muted instead of being
dropped with no replacement, and is never promoted to a heading
regardless of font size.
- Factored the formatting logic out of the progress closure into a
standalone, unit-tested _render_ingest_preview_html().
- Replaced dead getattr(bbox, "y0", ...) calls (bbox is always a plain
[x, y, w, h] list) with direct indexing, moved statistics/logging
imports to module level, switched manual character replacement to
html.escape(), and bounded the preview by an accumulated line budget
instead of a blind slice that could truncate mid-tag.
- Replaced inline style="..." with CSS classes matching the panel's
existing dark console treatment.
- The frontend now always uses innerHTML (every text node is escaped
server-side), dropping the startsWith('<') content-type sniffing.
- Marked the preview panel aria-hidden -- decorative, and would
otherwise churn noisily for screen reader users on top of the
adjacent progress bar.
Verified against the real c't KI Wissen 2026 layout: a figure's raw
OCR text no longer appears twice, a real headline renders as <h3>, a
footer/pull-quote render muted, and all text is correctly escaped.

Ingestion now streams each page's image and recognised text into a
console-styled preview panel (Baidu Unlimited-OCR demo style) as pages
finish, instead of a bare progress bar -- raw text is written to a
per-job ingest_preview.json file since the background-job result field
strips text-like keys for data minimization.
Split-screen review boxes and their matching list rows now show a
centred icon for the region's kind and, when a region on a shared page
belongs to a different article, a badge naming that article, so a
claimed region is never mistaken for unclaimed text.
Added a "Draw it" mode: click-drag a box directly on the page image to
add a region the layout engine missed, as typed/OCRed text or as a new
figure (add_manual_region, POST /api/magazine/{doc_id}/pages/{page}/regions).

Split-screen review: the rendered page (left) with a numbered box per
detected block, the extracted text (right) with matching numbers.
Clicking either side highlights the other. Checkboxes moved from a flat
list into this layout without changing their semantics (still gate
what gets narrated).
"OCR again": reocr_page() forces one page through the configured
vision engine again, replacing only that page's blocks -- deliberately
does NOT call build_articles(), so an already-approved article is not
silently re-grouped. A magazine-level option re-reads every page and
re-runs detection (with a confirmation, since that does reset article
status). extract_pages() gained force_vision_ocr to skip its quality
gate for this case.
Building the numbered-box review immediately did what it was built to
do -- surfaced a real bug on live production data (real magazine, real
scan, not a synthetic fixture): a photo caption at 49.9% of the page
width sat in the gutter between two genuinely separate columns and
merged them into one, so every block on the page came back column=0
and reading order fell back to pure top-to-bottom, interleaving the
two columns' sentences. Fixed two compounding causes: column boundary
detection now excludes blocks much wider than the page's median width,
and detect_columns' gutter threshold (3.5%) was itself narrower than
some real magazine gutters (~2.1% measured) -- lowered to 1.5%.
10 new/updated tests, including one built directly from the real
measured page-17 block coordinates that exposed the bug.

Magazine "forgets" the open document (real bug, confirmed live):
- A full page reload or the browser's own Back button tears down all
in-memory JS state; magInit() always defaulted to the empty library
view with no way back to what was open. Persists the last-opened
magazine id in localStorage and auto-reopens it on load, falling back
to the library only if that document no longer exists.
- The actual root cause of the reported duplicate: readerRenderLibrary()
(Studio/Reader "Source") and libraryRenderBooks() (Library > Books)
both listed EVERY document from the shared reader_library store with
no kind filter, so a magazine (kind: "magazine") was already showing
up there disguised as a plain book. The magazine never actually
vanished -- it was misfiled in a different list, which is what led to
the user re-uploading it and getting a real duplicate under a
different kind. Both listings now exclude kind: "magazine".
Confidence badge layout (Studio Characters review):
- The badge (radiobox is already positioned after the speaker name in
DOM order) rendered on its own line far below the name because both
.ab-cv-spk and .ab-cv-txt were `display: block`, forcing a line break
regardless of markup order. Wrapped the name + badge + check button in
a shared flex row (.ab-cv-spk-row) so the badge now sits directly
beside the name/after "NARRATOR" as requested, without needing to
touch the two existing incremental-patch code paths (they insert
relative to the same elements, now just nested one level deeper).
docker-socket-proxy crash loop (found while restarting for the magazine
Python changes to take effect -- unrelated to this session's earlier
work, landed in an earlier commit during the interruption):
- read_only: true left the entrypoint with nowhere to write its own
haproxy.cfg ("Read-only file system"), crash-looping the container and
leaving the app without Docker access. Removed read_only for this one
service -- cap_drop: ALL, no-new-privileges, and the :ro socket mount
already provide the real hardening.

Replaces the plain <input type="file"> with the same reader-dropzone
component the Book/Source screen already uses (reused CSS, no new
styles needed beyond grid/layout adjustments) -- drag a PDF onto the
zone or click "Choose file", both paths route through the same hidden
input magCreate() already reads via a DataTransfer handoff, so no other
logic needed to change. Shows the chosen/dropped filename in place of
the default hint text, and resets it after a successful add.
Verified live: click-to-choose and a simulated real 'drop' DragEvent
both populate the file input correctly, dragover highlighting toggles,
no console errors from the app itself.

Magazine P1:
- Images shown automatically during playback (assign_images_to_articles
links each figure to the article whose column it falls in; the client
shows the last image reached in reading order as playback advances).
- "Play all articles" queues every approved article and advances
automatically at the end of each rather than stopping.
- Word-level highlighting, explicitly documented as an ESTIMATE (no
forced-alignment/timestamp source exists): each word's share of the
sentence's real measured audio duration is proportional to its
character length. A checkbox turns it off; sentence highlighting
(measured, not estimated) is unaffected.
- Driving mode: full-screen overlay, two oversized controls, reuses
whatever is already playing/queued.
- Sidebars/pull-out boxes excluded from narration automatically
(mark_sidebars: an anomalously narrow column vs. the page's regular
grid). Fixed a real defect found while building this: a full-width
headline was left in the column-width analysis and could bridge two
genuinely separate columns into one, hiding a real sidebar column
entirely -- caught by a failing test before the fix.
Second OCR engine + fallback ladder:
- KDL Frontier Parser nano wired in via vision_ocr_page_chain (ordered
engine list, first usable result wins, tesseract last resort).
Confirmed live: ~3x faster than Baidu (~12s vs ~40s/page) but returns
plain text with NO coordinate markers, unlike Baidu's labeled regions.
_whole_page_region treats the whole response as one ambiguous
full-page block (gated by ocr_quality_score) rather than discarding
usable text just because it lacks layout structure.
OCR engines page + a real UI bug:
- The OCR & Document Parsing page had no .s-engines-page[data-page="ocr"]
markup at all -- renderLocalContainers already supported an OCR grid
generically, but $('dc-grid-ocr') was always null, so the card grid
silently never rendered. Added an Active OCR Engine panel mirroring
Active Language Model exactly, plus the Local grid -- both configured
engines now appear as ready-made cards, no "Add Custom" dialog needed.
- Fixed the audiobook pipeline's "Previous/Next" nav bar bleeding into
every .section-head in the document (confirmed live on the Engines
page: a "Cast Audiobook" button and "STEP 1/8" hint that made no sense
there). Changed from a blocklist (naming each unrelated section as
noticed) to an allowlist of the pipeline's three actual destinations.
Verified live end-to-end: play-all queue building and manual advance,
word-span markup, driving-mode toggle, OCR page showing both engines as
local cards, zero stray nav bars on the Engines page, no console errors.
20 new backend tests (156 total in the magazine module).

Studio -> Magazines: library, contents tree grouped by section with
confidence/pages/listening-time/audio status, the Stage D review
screen (tick/untick layout blocks, correct title/author, approve or
reject), a reflowed article view with click-to-seek sentence
highlighting, a linked original-page view showing the source bounding
box, and a podcast panel (2-3 host pickers, script generation,
turn-by-turn playback).
Wired into the existing lazy-module system (module-manifest.json,
loader.js, nav.js) rather than a separate app. Reuses /api/tts-preview
for both narration and podcast turns -- no new audio pipeline.
Fixes found building this:
- The pane toggle used role="tab" without the full ARIA tabs pattern
(aria-selected, roving tabindex, arrow-key nav) -- fails WCAG 2.2 AA
and hid the buttons from role-based tooling. Replaced with a button
group + aria-pressed, matching the plain-click interaction it
actually has.
- Print layout cues ("(continued on page 8)") were being sent to TTS
verbatim -- narration would have spoken the parenthetical aloud.
Stripped from the narration copy only; layout.json keeps the
original for the review screen.
- has_podcast now comes from the articles listing so opening an
article without a generated script skips a doomed GET instead of a
routine 404 on every open.
Verified against the real API contract with Playwright (library,
review pre-selection, approval, sentence highlighting + PDF-page
linking, podcast approval gate, zero console errors across the flow)
and manually end-to-end against a real ingested fixture, screenshots
included. Full suite: 94 Python tests, 33/34 desktop Playwright tests
(one unrelated pre-existing flaky DOM-count assertion).
