📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughMixcloud support was added across configuration, API access, provider browsing, genre navigation, playback, resume handling, tests, and documentation. Existing provider navigation and configuration persistence were generalized to support these capabilities. ChangesMixcloud integration
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This change adds Mixcloud and shared browsing/configuration behavior, but the current version can override another provider’s playback cookie source and can make some genre selections load nothing; configuration-save errors also lack useful context, and the website documentation is incomplete. These are bounded but concrete integration, correctness, and usability issues, so merge should wait for fixes or explicit owner acceptance. Suggested reviewers: Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

…, and resume Browses the Mixcloud catalogue through the public REST API and plays shows through the existing yt-dlp pipeline. Queue entries store the stable mixcloud.com page URL rather than an extracted media URL, so yt-dlp resolves the current stream only when playback begins and saved playlists never go stale. Opt-in through [mixcloud] enabled = true, which on its own provides discovery, search, and music-style views. A username adds the following stream, profile activity, uploads, favorites, listening history, collections, and followed-creator browsing; a developer access token additionally resolves /me and Listen Later. cookies_from is handed to yt-dlp for playback that needs a signed-in session. Account-side failures degrade to a warning so a stale username or an expired token never takes public discovery down with it. Shift+X opens the provider. Three provider interfaces keep this generic instead of special-casing Mixcloud in the UI. GenreBrowser, with optional GenreSearcher and GenreFavoriteToggler, gives the navigation browser a category screen where f pins a genre, persisted back to [mixcloud].styles. BrowseEntryProvider lets a provider advertise hierarchical browse routes in its playlist pane without presenting them as playable lists. Entries carry their own placement (AfterID/AfterSection) and leaf behavior: OpenInPlaylist routes the final track result into the main playlist and closes the browser instead of opening its track screen. TrackArtistResolver lets Shift+N jump from a selected show straight to its creator. Restricted-show markers are applied at render time, so they stay out of playlist exports, IPC output, and media-session metadata. Two player changes affect every yt-dlp source, not only Mixcloud. SeekYTDL mutes the gapless streamer before rebuilding the pipeline but returned early when the rebuild failed, leaving the stream permanently silent; restoreYTDLSeekSource puts the original source back, guarded by the seek generation so an obsolete seek cannot overwrite a newer one. Seek errors now also reach the UI as warnings instead of being dropped. Resume is extended to Mixcloud shows, which are long-form enough to be worth resuming and report a reliable position from decoded PCM plus the restart offset; other yt-dlp sites stay excluded. Because the resume seek rebuilds the pipeline it runs asynchronously, and a failure clears the saved position rather than retrying on every play. Resume is armed for a saved Mixcloud URL even without positional arguments, since these shows are usually opened from the provider browser.

Also addressed the outside-diff configuration-persistence feedback in b083584: saveSectionValue now wraps config-path, directory creation, file-read, and atomic-write failures with operation context while preserving the original errors with %w. The generic CodeRabbit docstring-coverage warning was not actioned; the repository does not require comments on every touched private function, and blanket comments would add noise rather than useful API documentation. |

Pin the API base URL in tests that must not use the network.
NewFromConfig sets client.baseURL to defaultAPIBase (https://api.mixcloud.com). TestPublicPlaylistsNeedNoNetwork keeps that default. Today Playlists() performs no request for a config without a username or token, so the test passes offline. If that path later issues a request, the test contacts the live Mixcloud API from CI instead of failing deterministically.
Point the client at a server that fails the test on any request. The same applies to the other tests that use NewFromConfig without a stub server (TestExplicitEmptyStylesDoNotRestoreDefaults, TestBrowseEntriesExposeShowsCreatorsAndGenres, TestGenreFavoriteSaveFailureKeepsProviderState, TestProviderRejectsMalformedRecordsAndKeys, TestArtistForTrackUsesOwningCreator, TestStyleAlbumSortAndLabels).

Add the unrestricted cases.
trackViewName appends the marker only when the metadata value equals "true" exactly. albumViewName appends it only when Restricted is true. The test covers the restricted branch only. Add the negative cases so a change to either condition fails the test.

Summary
Adds Mixcloud as a provider: DJ mixes, radio shows and podcasts browsed through Mixcloud's public REST API and played through cliamp's existing yt-dlp pipeline.
Queue entries store the stable
mixcloud.compage URL rather than an extracted media URL, so yt-dlp resolves the current stream only when playback begins and saved playlists never go stale.Along the way it adds three opt-in provider capabilities to the core. They are provider-agnostic — Mixcloud is just the first implementer:

Two changes here are not scoped to Mixcloud and are worth reviewing on their own terms:
