- Introduced a `Via` field in `ParseError` to indicate the proxy address used during requests, improving clarity on error contexts.
- Updated `ProxyPool` to prioritize confirmed live proxies while available, ensuring more reliable proxy selection and reducing connection timeouts.
- Implemented fallback logic to allow the use of unconfirmed proxies when no confirmed ones are available, preventing collection stalls.
- Adjusted logging in `CollectLogEntryViewModel` to include proxy details, enhancing error visibility for users.
- Added unit tests to verify new proxy selection logic and ensure correct behavior under various conditions.
These changes improve the robustness of the proxy management system and enhance the overall user experience by providing clearer error messages and more efficient proxy usage.
- Updated `IMediaSourceCatalog` to support user-added media sources, allowing dynamic editing and management of sources.
- Removed the `UrlListSource` class as its functionality is now integrated into the new catalog structure.
- Enhanced `CollectOptions` to default `RequireProxy` to true, ensuring stricter handling of proxy requirements.
- Improved error handling in `ParseError` to include a `Subject` field for better context on failures.
- Adjusted dependency injection to reflect changes in media source management, removing old source registrations.
- Introduced background proxy checks to ensure a more robust proxy pool management during collection processes.
These changes streamline the media collection process and improve the overall user experience by providing clearer error reporting and more flexible source management.
The scaffolding domain existed to prove the shell end to end before there was
anything real to put in it. There is now, so it goes - as CLAUDE.md promised it
would.
Gone: the two sample parsers, ITextParser, ParsedRecord, the parser catalog,
ParseViewModel and ParseView, their tests, and the settings key that remembered
which parser was last used. ParseError.LineNumber becomes Index, since for a
listing "line 42" was simply untrue, and the error keys move from Parse.Error.*
to Collect.Error.* now that parsing is not a concept here.
Kept: IParser<,>, ParseOutcome, ParseProgress and ParseError. The streaming
contract was always the general part - it was only ever the text-shaped closure
of it that was scaffolding.
Rendering the dashboard caught two keys that were referenced but never added
during the rename: the XAML was repointed and the resources were not. The parity
test could not see it, because it compares the two files against each other and
a key absent from both is consistent. That gap now has its own test, which reads
every {l:Loc} in the XAML and checks it resolves - a screenshot is too late and
too manual a way to find a missing string.

Strings move into Localization/Strings.resx plus a Russian satellite. XAML uses
a {l:Loc Key} markup extension that yields a binding through the localizer's
indexer rather than a resolved string, so changing the language raises
PropertyChanged for the indexer and every caption in the app re-reads at once.
Resolving strings once at load would have been simpler and would have needed an
app restart to take effect.
Three places where this is more than a string swap:
Russian has three plural forms, so counted messages are assembled from .One /
.Few / .Many keys via Localizer.Plural instead of "{0} records" with an English
plural glued on. "1 запись", "3 записи", "7 записей".
Enum captions in pickers go through LocalizedOption<T>. A value converter would
resolve the caption once and never notice a language change; the wrapper keeps
identity on the enum value so the selection survives, while the label follows
the localizer. It needed a non-generic base for DataTemplate x:DataType, since
Avalonia 12 compiles bindings by default and cannot infer one for an open
generic.
Text originating in the domain would otherwise have stayed English under a
Russian UI — the screenshots showed exactly that. AvParser.Core still knows
nothing about languages: ParseError now carries a Code and Arguments, and the UI
translates Parse.Error.{Code} with a fallback to the English message. Parser
names work the same way (Parser.{id}.Name falling back to DisplayName), which
keeps "add a parser = one registration line" true — an untranslated parser shows
its own name rather than a missing-key marker.
Both .resx files are generated from one table so a key cannot exist in one and
be missing from the other, and the tests assert that, plus no blank translations
and identical {0} placeholder sets — a translation that drops a placeholder
throws at runtime rather than merely reading oddly. A headless test switches
language on a live shell and asserts the rendered text changes without the tree
being rebuilt.

Greenfield skeleton for a parser desktop app. The domain is deliberately a
placeholder — IParser<TIn,TOut> plus two sample parsers — so the shell is
runnable and verifiable end to end before real logic lands.
Layers run one way: Core (no Avalonia, no IO) <- Infrastructure <- UI <- Desktop.
UI is a class library rather than the exe so headless tests build real views
without dragging in Program.cs, Serilog or the container.
Adaptive layout is built from what Avalonia actually offers, since it has no
AdaptiveTrigger or media queries: ResponsiveLayout observes Visual.Bounds and
projects a breakpoint onto both an attached property and :compact/:medium/
:expanded pseudoclasses, with 24px hysteresis so dragging a window edge cannot
make the layout flap. Pane state lives in the view model because a style setter
loses to a local value permanently; styles own only the visual variance.
Stack notes worth remembering: Avalonia.ReactiveUI is deprecated in favour of
ReactiveUI.Avalonia, and ReactiveUI 24 runs on the Primitives engine (RxVoid,
ISequencer, Signal<T>) and no longer self-initialises. Avalonia.Headless.XUnit
12.x requires xUnit v3. InvariantGlobalization must stay false or Semi.Avalonia
throws in its static constructor.
102 tests across three projects, including headless guards for the two failures
that are otherwise completely silent: a stylesheet whose selectors match nothing,
and a light palette too low-contrast for cards to read.
