Two gaps observed in real casting output:
1. A mid-quote " - " (em-dash pause) was being read as the end of the
quotation, handing the rest of the line to a wrong/new speaker.
2. Narration naming whose voice is about to speak (e.g. "Marcians
Stimme wirkte nicht mehr so fest") wasn't being used to resolve the
following unattributed line away from 'Unknown'.
Added as rules 11/12 to the client-side AB_DEFAULT_PROMPT (the prompt
actually sent to the LLM) and to normalizeCastingPrompt()'s migration
so already-saved custom prompts pick them up automatically, same
mechanism as the earlier Doppelpunkt-Regel upgrade. Also added
equivalent rules to the server-side fallback prompt in
routes/conversation.py for completeness, though the client-sent prompt
is what's actually used in normal operation.

A document-level "click outside closes the popup" handler only exempted
clicks on the paragraph's speaker label, not clicks anywhere else in the
passage text. Since mousedown fires before click, this closed the popup
(clearing assignModeRow) before the v1.14.13 name-click logic ever ran,
making "click a name elsewhere to feed the open popup" silently do
nothing. Passage-text clicks/drags no longer auto-close the popup.

The intended flow is: click the broken paragraph's speaker label to open
"Assign to", then supply the name (type, click it anywhere in the text,
or drag-select it). But clicking or drag-selecting a name with no popup
open yet used to open/target a popup for whichever paragraph that name
lived in, silently reassigning THAT paragraph instead of the one the
user meant to fix. Both paths now require an already-open popup before
they do anything — a paragraph is only ever selected via its own
speaker label (or the existing double-click fast-assign shortcut).

The Characters Found sidebar, the "Assign to" popup's character list,
and the "merge with an already-found character" list now show each
character's saved portrait when one exists (same source as the profile
detail panel), falling back to the existing colour-keyed initial-letter
dot otherwise.

Clicking a name inside a paragraph's text always retargeted the "Assign
to" popup (and its highlight) to that paragraph, even when the popup was
already open for a different one. That made it look like the wrong
paragraph was being reassigned when the user just wanted to reuse a name
they saw elsewhere. Now, while a popup is open, clicking a name outside
its target paragraph only fills the search box.

Passage/Thinking boxes in the audiobook casting live view can now be
resized vertically. Also fixed the character-list collapse button's
chevron pointing opposite to the direction the panel edge actually moves.

Confirmed by directly probing a streaming response from vllm-0.23.1rc1:
its delta objects carry reasoning text under "reasoning", not the more
common "reasoning_content" key every reasoning-display code path was
checking for. Added a shared _reasoning_text() helper that checks both,
used by the Conversation Playground, audiobook casting's live view, and
character sheets.

Was 6min/3min. 122B+ models can take longer than that just to produce
a first token; 10min also happens to match the server-side cap
(_request_timeout_seconds), so this is the max without raising that too.

The "LLM Reading…" split view showed the same passage text three times
(reader pane, Passage column, and a full-width block toggled by the
chevron that duplicated the Passage column). Removed the redundant
full-width block, repurposed the chevron to show/hide the two-column
view itself, and swapped the columns to Passage (left) / Thinking (right).

Reasoning-model chain-of-thought is now separated from the spoken/displayed
reply on the server (handles both a dedicated reasoning_content field and
inline <think> blocks, including chat templates that inject the opening tag
as a prompt prefix so it never appears in the stream). The client shows it
in a panel collapsed behind a "Thinking" chevron instead of dumping raw
reasoning text into the chat or speaking it aloud via TTS.
Also moved the noise-gate slider out of its own row and next to the mic
button, grouping it with Auto-stop/Hands-free/Live agent.

Two unclosed <div class="card"> tags in the TTS settings markup left the
add-engine dialog nested inside the TTS panel's DOM subtree, so it
rendered at zero size whenever another Engines sub-tab (e.g. Speech
Recognition) was active. Also fixed a `let` declared after its first
use, which threw a ReferenceError on every Engines-tab page load.

Streaming playback never produces an in-memory blob, but the enable

- App Routing's output-voice field gets the same searchable
avatar-thumbnail dropdown used elsewhere, as a browse button
alongside the existing free-text input (which must stay editable to
target vd_ Voice Design presets not in the voice library).
- My Voices table: Gender and Rating filter dropdowns existed in the
JS (populateLibraryFilters, libraryFilterMatch) but their <select>
elements had been dropped from the visible layout after an earlier
redesign, replaced with hidden dead placeholders just to keep the
code from erroring - and since populateLibraryFilters() early-returns
if any of the three elements are missing, this silently broke the
already-visible Language/Type dropdowns too. Restored the real
elements and removed the hidden scaffold; added new Tag and Group
dropdowns wired to the same filter state the sidebar chips use.
- Audio effects failing with "pedalboard is not installed" despite
requirements.txt listing it: the package WAS installed, but its
native extension (pedalboard_native) links against libatomic.so.1,
an OS-level shared library missing from the python:3.11-slim-bookworm
base image. Added libatomic1 to the Dockerfile and rebuilt - verified
`import pedalboard` now succeeds in the running container.
- Relabeled "edit ID"/"copy ID" to "rename filename"/"copy filename"
in the voice inspector - the feature already renamed the underlying
.wav/.meta.json/.reference.txt/picture files via the existing
/api/voice/rename endpoint, it just wasn't obvious "ID" meant
"filename."

Confirmed in production: a streaming attribution/character-sheets
request held _attribution_llm_lock for 11+ minutes, well past its
configured timeout, silently rejecting every subsequent passage as
"Attribution engine busy" and falling back to the non-streaming view -
looking exactly like live-thinking had stopped working, when actually
one earlier request never finished.
Root cause: requests' timeout= on a stream=True call only covers the
connect + first byte, not gaps between later body reads. If the LLM
backend goes silent mid-stream (connection left open, no more chunks),
the blocked socket recv() inside iter_lines() can hang indefinitely.
Since that's a native blocking call, not a Python-level yield point,
neither an in-loop wall-clock check nor GeneratorExit from a
disconnected client can interrupt it - both only take effect at the
next bytecode boundary, which never arrives while blocked in the C
extension.
Added _watchdog_close: a daemon thread that force-closes the upstream
connection if the wrapped block hasn't finished within the configured
timeout. Closing the socket from another thread makes the blocked
recv() raise, unblocking the generator so its normal except/finally
cleanup (including releasing the lock) actually runs. Verified against
the live LLM backend post-restart: stream completes normally with
real token-by-token deltas, and the lock is confirmed free immediately
after.

It used position:sticky with a top:40vh offset - sticky's containing
block grows with the document, so on a long PDF the pill drifted
toward the bottom instead of staying a fixed distance from the
viewport's actual visible top. Switched to position:fixed.
Also investigated a "characters all gone" report: verified directly
in the SQLite database that all 47 records for the book are intact,
and a fresh browser session renders them correctly with no errors -
this was a transient/stale-page display issue, not data loss.

Character Sheets generation only ever showed a progress bar - no
visible reading/thinking/filling-out, unlike the casting flow which
already streams the LLM's output live. Refactored
/api/character-sheets into shared _charsheets_prepare/_charsheets_parse
helpers (same split used for attribution) and added
/api/character-sheets/stream, proxying the LLM's SSE stream through
the same shared lock used by the other attribution endpoints.
Client: new csGenerateStream (mirrors audiobookAttributeStream) tries
the streaming endpoint first per passage, updating a new "Live output"
panel in the progress dialog with the raw JSON answer as it's written
- itself the "watch it fill out the sheet" experience, since there's
no separate reasoning channel worth hiding it behind here. Falls back
to the blocking endpoint on any stream failure.

A leftover rule colored the icon accent-blue from when this button
was still .btn-secondary (accent icon on a white background). After
making it the primary blue button in the last release, that same blue
rendered blue-on-blue against the button's own background - invisible.
Confirmed via computed style before/after (blue -> white) rather than
guessing from the screenshot alone.

Recasting one character out of a 149-passage book was reading the
entire text every time, exactly as flagged: "you only need to read a
couple of paragraphs before and after his name." csForReaderSelective
now matches the picked character's name + known aliases against the
book's chunks, keeps one chunk of context on either side for
pronoun/"he" resolution, and only extracts from those - falling back
to the full book only if nothing matched at all (e.g. a name typo).

Character sheet generation is already available from "Cast Characters"
in the Casting flow, so the standalone button here was a duplicate
entry point. Removed it and made "Cast as audiobook" the primary blue
action, moved to the end of the toolbar as the clear next step in the
pipeline.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
csForReaderSelective passed the ENTIRE roster to csGenerate as the
target list, so the "N cast characters queued" progress dialog showed
every character regardless of what was actually checked in the picker
- only the final save step was correctly filtered, making the whole
run look like it ignored the selection. Now only the picked name(s)
go in as the target roster.
Also fixed the "Recast options" dropdown opening off-screen: its
anchor sits in the bottom action bar, so opening downward (the
default) routinely pushed it past the viewport edge. Opens upward
when there isn't enough room below, with more prominent styling.

The backend hint box sat beside the 4 tuning rows via grid-row: 1 /
span 4, forcing it to stretch to their combined height no matter how
short its own text was - usually leaving a large empty gap below a
1-3 line hint. Moved it full-width below the rows instead, sized to
its own content, and dropped the now-redundant two-column grid and
mobile-breakpoint overrides that existed only to manage it.

Merging two characters could block the main thread long enough to
trigger the browser's own "Page Unresponsive" dialog - the merge
itself is a fast array loop, but redrawing the whole feed afterward
(thousands of DOM rows, each running highlightText's regex pass) was
one long synchronous chunk. A plain spinner overlay can't fix that,
since it freezes right along with everything else in the same JS
turn. Split _abMergeCharacters into a fast relabel step plus a new
_abRedrawSegmentsChunked that rebuilds the feed across animation
frames, driving a real progress bar in the busy overlay instead of a
static "please wait".
Also added search + sort (line count / alphabetical) to the Casting
sidebar's character list, matching the Library's character list
controls.

The earlier table-view fix (display:table-row on <tr>) wasn't the
whole story: display:flex directly on a <td> (Stimme, Tags columns)
also broke its table-cell participation in Chromium, rendering that
cell stacked at the PREVIOUS column's x-position regardless of
table-layout mode - confirmed via direct DOM/rect inspection, not
guesswork. Moved flex layout to inner wrapper divs and switched to
table-layout:fixed with an explicit colgroup so column widths are
never re-negotiated by content again.
Also added actual character merging to the "also known as" alias
popup: picking an existing roster entry (e.g. "Schmied" from Darag's
popup, when the LLM split one person into two roster names) reassigns
every one of its segments to the character you opened the popup from,
with undo support - not just a linked library alias that left the
live cast still showing both as separate people.

Any selection under 40 chars was treated as "assign this as a
character name," including short quoted lines like "»Henker«." that
the user clearly meant to split into their own Unknown-speaker
segment - guillemets/quotes are never part of a name. Selections
starting with a quote mark now skip the assign-popup hijack and fall
through to the already-visible "Split text to Unknown Speaker" button.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Table view was rendering as stacked blocks instead of columns: rows
reused .lib-char-card for its event wiring, but that class's
display:flex;flex-direction:column turned every <tr> into a flex
column. Reset to display:table-row and stripped the leaked-in card
chrome.
Split /api/character-generate-prompts into four independent per-field
LLM calls (from two paired calls) and added a `fields` filter, so the
UI can offer one Generate button per prompt box instead of a single
button that always regenerated all four - cheaper, and further
shrinks each response to reduce truncation risk.
Added a Sort dropdown (Role/Alphabet/Lines/Gender/Voice assigned) to
the Characters/Cast list, persisted like the Cards/Table toggle.

"Cast Characters" always blindly regenerated the whole cast from
scratch, even for a book already fully cast - no way to just look at
what's there or touch up a handful of characters without redoing
everyone. Once clGetAllByTagOrBook finds existing characters for this
book, the button becomes a split control: View Characters (jump to the
Library overview) plus a dropdown for Recast all or Recast selected...
(checkbox picker that re-scans the book but only saves updates for the
characters checked).

Replaces the horizontal avatar strip above the transport bar with a
sidebar next to the script page, reusing Read Aloud's Casting sidebar
classes (.ab-cv-side/.ab-char-item) directly instead of a separate
look. Same collapse-to-avatars control, now shows each character's
line count, and clicking a character scrolls the script to their
first line. Removed the CSS/HTML this replaces.

Server logs showed /api/analyze-characters succeeding on every attempt
but /api/voice-design never once being called - the bulk voice-design
loop accessed rehState.cast[sp].voice unguarded right after that
(multi-second, for a large cast) request resolved. Any cast-entry
change during that window threw an uncaught TypeError, silently
killing the whole run with no toast, no further requests, and the
button stuck disabled. Guarded the access and wrapped the remaining
flow in try/catch/finally so failures are visible and the UI always
resets.

Table view: one row per character (avatar, name, sex, line count, voice
language, alignment, voice, tags, prompt-availability checks), toggled
next to the card grid and persisted.
Bulk voice auto-assign: checkbox per character + "Auto-assign selected"
per production, sequential so later picks see what earlier ones just
took (avoids duplicate voice assignments).
Character tags (auto-set to the book of origin) are now visible on
cards - the field always existed, cards just never rendered it, so a
character recurring across books had no visible link between records.
Detail fields (Backstory, Motivation, etc.) now show small numbered
links to their exact source citation when the sheet has one, instead
of making the reader search the full "Quellen im Text" list.
Added gender as an actual extracted character-sheet field - the UI
already had a gender icon but the LLM was never asked for the value.
Fixed SillyTavern/Concept Art prompts still coming back empty despite
the earlier token-budget increase: they're the last two fields in one
JSON object, so truncation always cost the same two regardless of the
ceiling. Split into two independent, concurrent LLM calls instead.

The streaming attribution endpoint decoded the LLM's SSE response with
requests' guessed encoding (Latin-1 fallback when no charset is declared),
mangling every German umlaut. Forced UTF-8 explicitly.
The "LLM Thinking" pane duplicated the passage text for models that
ignore the <think> instruction and stream straight into JSON - it now
only shows real reasoning when present, and otherwise labels raw output
honestly instead of passing it off as thinking.
Also fixed three UI bugs found while testing a live multi-hour cast:
- A-/A+ font buttons had no effect (a hardcoded font-size on .ab-cv-row
always overrode the CSS variable they set).
- Typing a name + Enter in the "Assign to" popup (and drag-to-assign,
which reuses it) silently did nothing after the first cast/recast run
in a session - the popup is a page-lifetime singleton but its input
handlers closed over the first run's now-stale assignName/closePopup.
Every popup open now repoints them at the current run.
- "Split text to Unknown Speaker" split at the wrong spot when the
selected phrase repeated earlier in the same paragraph (indexOf found
the first occurrence, not the dragged one). Now uses the exact DOM
range offset instead.

The static-asset caching middleware used BaseHTTPMiddleware, which has a
known Starlette bug: a client disconnecting mid-StreamingResponse (the new
live-attribution SSE stream hitting its idle timeout) raced its internal
task group and raised "RuntimeError: No response returned", crashing that
request. Rewritten as plain ASGI middleware that only touches headers via
the raw send callable, removing the race.
Also found the real cause of the casting timeouts/405s: the streaming
attribution endpoint had its own lock instead of sharing the one the
blocking endpoint already used to serialize on the LLM's single slot -
letting a stream call and its own blocking fallback fire concurrently,
exactly the ghost-request pile-up that lock was built to prevent. Unified
onto one lock and added server-side logging for stream failures.
The "LLM Thinking" pane now shows the model's actual <think> reasoning
instead of the in-progress JSON answer echoed back at the user.

The LLM Reading card splits into thinking-stream (left) and passage
(right), fed by a new SSE endpoint that shares prompt-building and
parsing with the blocking one and falls back to it on any stream
failure (inactivity timeout, not overall). The deterministic resolver
no longer invents speakers from scenery nouns (PLATZ/GESICHTER/
KLEINIGKEIT) — person-noun whitelist plus a clause-subject pattern —
and gains the impersonal post-quote formula and strict two-person
alternation with colon/page/window guards. All reported failure cases
verified against the exact book sentences.

The recast/quality view's sidebar rebuilt its roster from only the
lines being checked, appearing to wipe every named character (the cast
itself was safe: named lines are never recast targets and increases in
Unknowns already roll back). The sidebar now seeds from the full cast
and refreshes during the run. Error notes fall back to the HTTP status
(statusText is empty on HTTP/2). The deterministic grammar resolver
runs before any LLM call in quality runs.

The LLM left ~44% of dialogue Unknown even with all deduction rules in
its prompt, so the mechanical ones now run in code per passage: colon
rule (with a non-agent-noun stoplist), post-quote inquit, and the "who
had spoken" pattern. Fills only Unknowns, never overrides the LLM.
Tested against the exact reported failure cases.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The saved casting prompt was the 2nd-quality verification prompt, so
first-pass attribution ran with the wrong job description and none of
the deduction rules — and the client-side prompt migration had no
anchor to upgrade. The server now appends the rules to any prompt
lacking them, and the saved prompt was reset to the default (backed up
to config/audiobook_prompt.backup.txt). Also: single-pass combined name
regex (a shorter alias could match inside a longer name's data-name
attribute and leak raw style="..." into the feed), stopword filter so a
comma-split alias like "Die, die den Vampir verließ" can't underline
every article, heading-like narration renders bold/centered, and A-/A+
font controls in the casting toolbar sharing the Rehearser Stage scale.

Characters/Cast gains a "Casting" button back to the active casting
session, the pipeline stepper renders on the Library section, and the
stepper's Cast Characters stop navigates instead of side-effect-running
sheet generation. Prompt generation: 4096-token budget (1600 truncated
the four-prompt JSON so two fields silently arrived empty), truncated
answers salvage completed fields, all-empty responses fail loudly, and
partial results name the missing prompts. The PDF-extraction progress
pill is enlarged and vertically centered.

The per-word <span> wrapping behind "click any word to assign" created
~100k DOM nodes at book scale and froze the tab on every feed redraw;
replaced with native caretRangeFromPoint word detection plus a single
reused hover overlay — same UX, zero extra DOM. Export button gained a
2s re-entry guard (queued clicks during a freeze fired as a download
burst) and now delivers one zip: the cast script in Markdown plus a
sheet per character. Character detail view gains a Generation Prompts
section — four fold-out copy boxes (Voice Design, Character Image,
SillyTavern card, Concept Art sheet) filled by one LLM call over the
full profile via the new /api/character-generate-prompts endpoint.

The casting prompt now teaches the deduction patterns behind most false
Unknown/Narrator assignments: colon-introduced quotes, post-quote inquit
attribution, pronoun resolution to the last-named matching-gender
character, addressee rule, strict two-person ping-pong, and role names
(Ork, Nachbar) as valid speakers. Saved prompts upgrade in place; the
2nd Quality Run prompt gets the same toolkit. The attribution language
hint falls back to detecting the book's language from its text instead
of relying on a usually-empty dropdown.

jumps between stages and a prominent guided-tour look
- Split PDF import into an explicit "load" then "Extract Text" step, with

into a PDF as images instead of real text
- Fix casting feed silently merging pages after leaving/returning: segments
now carry their own page number instead of re-guessing it from text
- Fix excessive "Unknown" speaker attribution: restore the attribution LLM's
output token budget, which had been cut roughly in half and was truncating
dialogue-dense passages
- Fix Theater Play library cards failing to open (dead pre-migration
IndexedDB API calls, missing section navigation)
- Fix bulk "Set tag" wiping a voice's existing tags instead of adding to them
- Start merging Casting's feed with Script Rehearser's Stage UI: collapsible
character sidebar, shared "paper" page styling, inline text editing
- Fix a performance regression from that merge (per-row listeners on every
redraw) by moving to event delegation
- Various layout/clutter fixes: hide reader chrome until a document is
loaded, collapse secondary settings by default, fix overlapping toolbar
icons, fix duplicate "opening" notifications

After a successful /api/voices fetch, results are written to sessionStorage
(key ttsvc_vc). On the next page load loadVoiceLibrary() reads the cache and
renders voices immediately before the network request completes, eliminating
the blank-list / skeleton flash entirely.
The background fetch always runs and overwrites the cache with fresh data.
Error handling is graceful: if the network fails but cache was served, the
error is suppressed (stale data stays visible). The Refresh button clears the
cache first to force a full reload cycle.
Silent-refresh logic (from v1.12.19) prevents the second loadVoiceLibrary()
call (engines.js batch E) from blanking already-rendered voices.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Root cause 1 (v1.12.18): `window.loadVoiceLibrary = () => loadVoiceLibrary()`
overwrites the global binding the arrow function references, causing immediate
RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded on every call. Changed to direct
assignment `window.loadVoiceLibrary = loadVoiceLibrary`.
Root cause 2 (v1.12.18): `loadSettings()` called `renderSettingsAbout()` which
lives in conversation.js (batch E), loaded after init.js. Guard added with
typeof check; nav.js already calls it safely when the About section opens.
Also (v1.12.18): s-library.html duplicated cl-book-filter / cl-search / cl-grid
from s-characters.html, breaking getElementById. Characters panel in Library
now redirects to s-characters instead of duplicating its DOM nodes.
Also (v1.12.19): engines.js triggers a second loadVoiceLibrary() after nav.js
already rendered voices, blanking the list briefly. Second call now silently
re-fetches without clearing the list when voices are already present.

- Sidebar collapses to a 56px icon rail; hovering flies the full menu out as
an overlay (icons + titles/nested items). Language picker moved to Settings.
- Unify settings collapsibles to the app's standard card-collapse style:
Conversation, Read Aloud (drag-&-drop now inside), Try It Out, Casting panel.
- Read Aloud: reordered (settings → toolbar → document → transport/synth) and
the document fits the viewport height so controls below stay visible; remove
the redundant My Books card (lives in Library → Books).
- Conversation: stacked full-width config, fills viewport height; fix
intermittent webm decode in hands-free mode (recorder restarts cleanly,
in-browser WAV encode); barge-in via Live agent.
- Fix casting feed overflow that pushed the sidebar off-screen.
