Merges its delta requirements into the android-auto-media base spec. Completes Phase 2; only Phase 3 (subfolder scoping, shuffle) remains. On-device validation of the native metadata path is still an outstanding pre-release gate across all local-music phases shipped today.

Status: Complete — Change archived and closed
Executive Summary
The android-auto-local-music-phase2 change is fully implemented, verified with 0 CRITICAL and 2 WARNINGs (documentation-accuracy only, already corrected), and has been archived. Phase 2 of the local-music feature is now complete, delivering real embedded metadata resolution, quality-based sort navigation, and alphabetical name buckets for browsable audio files in Android Auto. Only Phase 3 (subfolder scoping refinements, shuffle) remains as planned future work. Outstanding pre-release gate: native metadata-extraction path (MediaMetadataRetriever, FileProvider art cache/LRU) requires on-device/DHU validation across all local-music phases before production release.

- ADDED: "Local Music Alphabetical Name Buckets" requirement (A-F/G-M/N-S/T-Z letter ranges)
- ADDED: "Local Track Embedded Album Art Display" requirement (static URI resolution, fallback handling)

Merged Specification Requirements
Modified Requirement: Local Music Browsable Tree
Expanded to include:
- Track title resolution: shows embedded metadata when available, falls back to filename
- Track art resolution: shows embedded album art when available, falls back to generic placeholder
- Graceful degradation: no exceptions on metadata unavailability, continues browsing
New Requirement: Local Music Sort Mode Navigation
- Browsable, non-playable sort-mode entries on page 0
- "By name" (filename order) always available
- "By audio quality" (bitrate descending) available when folder <= 150 tracks
- Mirrors
ordenarEmisoras(..., calidad)comparator pattern
New Requirement: Local Music Alphabetical Name Buckets
- Browsable, non-playable letter-range folders (A-F, G-M, N-S, T-Z)
- Metadata-free partitioning (uses only filename)
- Available when folder > 50 tracks
- Enables name-based filtering on legacy
MediaBrowserServicesurface
New Requirement: Local Track Embedded Album Art Display
- Static URI resolution via FileProvider cache (
content://...fileprovider...) - Art cache with LRU eviction (256 files / 32 MB budget)
- Graceful fallback to generic rotating placeholder art
Implementation Summary
Delivery Strategy
- Mode: Single PR with
size:exception(user's established preference for high-risk changes this session) - Test Mode: Strict TDD (all Dart behavior-changing code), Static-review-only (native Kotlin per project precedent)
- Result: 1979 changed lines, all 137/137 tests passing
Test Coverage
- 114 tests in
navegacion_auto_test.dart(encode/decode, buckets, quality sort, page-0 wiring, fallbacks, collision guards) - 18 tests in
musica_local_auto_test.dart(LRU cache, metadata channel call, null tolerance) - 5 tests in
pista_local_test.dart(DTO construction) - Total verified: 137/137 pass, 0 failures
Verification Status
- Verdict: PASS WITH WARNINGS
- CRITICAL Issues: None
- WARNINGs (both documentation-accuracy, corrected):
- Apply-progress claimed 138/138 tests (19 in musica_local_auto_test.dart); actual 137/137 (18 tests). Corrected in apply-progress before archive.
- Apply-progress claimed 9 fixture corrections; actual 8. Corrected in apply-progress before archive.
- SUGGESTIONs (non-blocking):
- Native Kotlin code (readAudioMetadataBatch, art cache, LRU trim) remains static-review-only per established project precedent (no build/DHU environment)
- On-device validation of 150-track cap and 256-file/32MB art budget deferred to pre-release gate (design "Open Questions")
- Cosmetic CRLF line-ending warnings (not defects)
Key Design Decisions Verified
- Embedded-art delivery: FileProvider cache (content:// URI) — reuses existing authority, zero new manifest surface
- Metadata cache: Flat 256-entry LRU-by-access in
navegacion_auto.dart— ensures paging doesn't evict earlier pages - Quality-sort threshold: Offered when folder <= 150 tracks; above that, name + buckets only (head-unit latency guard)
- Media-ID collision safety:
carpeta_local_ord:andcarpeta_local_bucket:prefixes proven non-colliding against all 6 pre-existing prefixes - Page-scoping invariant: Metadata resolved only for the requested page's 50 items, never the whole folder (except quality-sort, which is opt-in)
Rollback Profile
Phase 2 is fully additive over Phase 1. If needed:
- Remove
readAudioMetadataBatchnative call - Drop
_ordand_bucketmedia-id prefixes - Restore filename titles + placeholder art
- Phase 1 browse/play/paging remains fully functional
Outstanding Pre-Release Gates
Native code validation (applies to Phases 1, paging, and 2):
MediaMetadataRetrieverbitrate/sample-rate/embedded-picture extraction with real SAF URIs (on-device/DHU)- FileProvider art cache write/read on actual Android file system
- 150-track quality-sort wall-clock latency (design "Open Questions")
- 256-file / 32 MB art cache eviction under realistic browsing patterns
No code changes required — these are validation gates for go-live, not SDD cycle blockers.
Archive Checklist
- Delta spec merged into main spec (
openspec/specs/android-auto-media/spec.md) - All 4 new/modified requirements integrated into spec source of truth

- Archive report written to both filesystem and engram
- Verification passed (PASS WITH WARNINGS, 0 CRITICAL)

- Specified: 1 modified + 3 added requirements
- Designed: 5 ADRs, page-scoping invariant, media-ID codec, LRU cache
- Tasked: 37 implementation tasks (4 phases, model/native/cache/sort/buckets)
- Applied: All 37 tasks completed, single PR, 1979 changed lines, 137/137 tests green
- Verified: PASS WITH WARNINGS (0 CRITICAL, 2 WARNINGs corrected)
- Archived: Change folder and all artifacts persisted
Next: Phase 3 (subfolder scoping, shuffle) when scheduled. Entire local-music feature remains gated on pre-release native validation.
