fix: mpv loadfile index arg, cache polling, and sidebar CSS

- Pass integer index (-1) to mpv loadfile command for newer mpv versions
- Poll /api/cache/status instead of streaming endpoints to avoid
  downloading video bodies during readiness checks
- Cancel previous polling when selecting a new file
- Fix sidebar flex-shrink and file name text overflow

+# 8-cut Client Design
+
+## Goal
+
+Build a Tauri + Svelte desktop client that connects to the 8-cut server API for remote video editing. Full feature parity with the Qt app. Targets Linux first, then Mac.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+Tauri app (Rust shell + Svelte webview)
+├── mpv sidecar (bundled binary)
+│   ├── plays video: http://server/api/stream/{path}?quality=low
+│   ├── plays audio: http://server/api/audio/{path}
+│   └── controlled via JSON IPC socket
+├── Svelte UI
+│   ├── File browser
+│   ├── Canvas timeline (markers, cursor, play region)
+│   ├── Canvas crop overlay
+│   ├── Export controls + WebSocket progress
+│   └── Settings panel (profile, subprofiles, quality)
+└── Rust backend
+    ├── Spawn/manage mpv process + IPC
+    ├── Proxy server API calls (avoid CORS)
+    └── Tauri commands exposed to Svelte frontend
+```
+
+## Playback
+
+mpv runs as a sidecar process, controlled via JSON IPC socket. Two streams:
+- Video: `http://server/api/stream/{path}?root={root}&quality={quality}` (transcoded, no audio)
+- Audio: `http://server/api/audio/{path}?root={root}` (full quality WAV)
+
+mpv's `--audio-file=` flag syncs both streams with frame-accurate seeking.
+
+Quality presets: potato (480p), low (720p), medium (1080p), high (original).
+
+## Features
+
+### File management
+- Browse server video roots (`GET /api/roots`, `GET /api/files`)
+- Hide/unhide files per profile (`POST/DELETE /api/hidden/{filename}`)
+- Sort by name/size, filter hidden
+
+### Playback
+- Play/pause/resume from pause point
+- AB-loop with current spread/clips settings
+- Play region adapts to spread changes without restarting
+- Quality selector
+
+### Timeline (Canvas)
+- Cursor position, markers, play position indicator
+- Click to seek, drag cursor
+- Lock mode: cursor locked to marker, double-click jumps to end of clip span
+- Autoclip: when paused, auto-adjust clip count to fit pause position
+
+### Crop & keyframes
+- Portrait ratio selector (9:16, 4:5, 1:1, off)
+- Crop center slider with live canvas overlay
+- Crop keyframes at arbitrary timeline positions
+- Subject tracking (triggered server-side)
+- Random portrait/square toggles
+
+### Export
+- Configurable: clips, spread, short side, format (MP4/WebP sequence)
+- Label + category annotation
+- Encoder selection (libx264 / h264_nvenc)
+- Subprofiles with folder suffix routing
+- Number keys 1-9 for subprofile quick export, E for main
+- WebSocket progress (`WS /ws/export`), per-clip completion
+- Delete/re-export from marker context menu
+
+### Profiles
+- Profile switcher, markers reload per profile
+- Subprofile management (add/remove)
+
+### Settings
+- Server URL (configurable)
+- Default quality preset
+- All settings persisted client-side via Tauri store
+
+## Server API endpoints used

+# 8-cut Server API Design
+
+## Goal
+
+Run 8-cut as a FastAPI server on Unraid (Docker) so a Tauri desktop client on Mac can edit remotely over WireGuard — no file transfers, no auth.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+Unraid (Docker container):
+  FastAPI + ffmpeg + SQLite
+  ├── /api/files         list videos from mounted volumes
+  ├── /api/stream/{path} transcoded video (cached, no audio)
+  ├── /api/audio/{path}  full-quality audio (cached, passthrough)
+  ├── /api/video/{path}  raw file (for reference/download)
+  ├── /api/markers       CRUD markers per profile
+  ├── /api/profiles      list/create profiles
+  ├── /api/export        trigger + manage exports
+  ├── /api/labels        label history
+  ├── /api/hidden        hidden file management
+  └── ws://…/ws/export   real-time export progress
+
+Mac (Tauri + Svelte + libmpv):
+  ├── mpv plays stream URL (video) + audio URL separately
+  ├── Canvas timeline + crop overlay + keyframes
+  ├── Full UI: profiles, subprofiles, settings
+  └── Stateless — all state lives on server
+```
+
+## Docker mounts
+
+| Mount       | Purpose                        | Env var      |
+|-------------|--------------------------------|--------------|
+| `/videos`   | Source video files (read-only)  | `MEDIA_DIRS` |
+| `/exports`  | Export output                  | `EXPORT_DIR` |
+| `/data`     | SQLite DB + transcode cache    | `DB_PATH`, `CACHE_DIR` |
+
+`MEDIA_DIRS` supports multiple paths: `/videos1,/videos2`.
+
+## Video streaming with transcode cache
+
+The client needs low-bitrate video for scrubbing over the network but full-quality audio for accurate editing.
+
+**Flow:**
+1. Client requests `/api/stream/{path}?quality=low`
+2. Server checks cache: `{CACHE_DIR}/{quality}/{hash}.mp4`
+3. If cached → serve with range requests (instant seeking)
+4. If not → start background ffmpeg transcode, return `202 Accepted` with job ID
+5. Client polls or gets WebSocket notification when ready
+6. Audio: `/api/audio/{path}` extracts audio (passthrough, fast) to cache on first request
+
+**Quality presets:**
+
+| Preset   | Resolution | Bitrate  |
+|----------|-----------|----------|
+| `potato` | 480p      | ~500 Kbps |
+| `low`    | 720p      | ~2 Mbps  |
+| `medium` | 1080p     | ~5 Mbps  |
+| `high`   | original  | ~10 Mbps |
+
+Each quality level cached separately. Client can switch quality — mpv reloads the URL.
+
+**mpv on client:**
+```
+video = http://server/api/stream/file.mp4?quality=low
+audio = http://server/api/audio/file.mp4
+```
+mpv's `--audio-file=` flag plays both in sync with frame-accurate seeking.
+
+## API endpoints
+
+### Files
+```
+GET /api/files?root={root}
+  → [{path, name, size, duration?, markers_count}]
+
+GET /api/video/{path}
+  → raw file with range requests
+
+GET /api/stream/{path}?quality=low|medium|high|potato
+  → cached transcoded video (no audio), range requests
+  → 202 if transcode in progress
+
+GET /api/audio/{path}
+  → cached full-quality audio, range requests
+  → 202 if extraction in progress
+
+GET /api/cache/status/{path}
+  → {qualities: {potato: "ready", low: "transcoding", ...}, audio: "ready"}
+```
+
+### Markers & profiles
+```
+GET    /api/markers/{filename}?profile=default
+  → [{start_time, marker_number, output_path}]
+
+GET    /api/profiles
+  → ["default", "intense", ...]
+
+GET    /api/labels
+  → ["dog barking", "rain", ...]
+```
+
+### Export
+```
+POST   /api/export
+  body: {input_path, cursor, folder_suffix?, name, clips, spread,
+         short_side?, portrait_ratio?, crop_center, format,
+         label?, category?, profile, crop_keyframes?,
+         rand_portrait?, rand_square?, track_subject?}
+  → {job_id}
+
+GET    /api/export/{job_id}
+  → {status, completed, total, outputs: [...]}
+
+DELETE /api/export/{output_path}
+  → delete from DB + disk
+
+WS     /ws/export
+  → server pushes: {type: "clip_done", path: "..."} | {type: "all_done"} | {type: "error", msg: "..."}
+```
+
+### Hidden files
+```
+POST   /api/hidden/{filename}?profile=default
+DELETE /api/hidden/{filename}?profile=default
+GET    /api/hidden?profile=default
+  → ["file1.mp4", "file2.mp4"]
+```
+
+## Code reuse from main.py
+
+**Extracted to shared module (used by both server and Qt app):**
+- `ProcessedDB` — SQLite operations
+- `build_ffmpeg_command` — ffmpeg command construction
+- `build_audio_extract_command`
+- `build_export_path` / `build_sequence_dir`
+- `detect_hw_encoders`
+- `upsert_clip_annotation` / `remove_clip_annotation`
+- `apply_keyframes_to_jobs` / `resolve_keyframe`
+- `track_centers_for_jobs` (subject tracking)
+
+**Server-specific (new):**
+- FastAPI app + route handlers
+- Transcode cache manager
+- Export worker (plain threading, replaces QThread-based ExportWorker)
+- File listing / media root scanning
+- WebSocket export progress broadcaster
+
+**Tauri client (new, Svelte):**
+- mpv integration via Tauri plugin or sidecar
+- Canvas-based timeline widget
+- Canvas-based crop overlay
+- All UI controls
+- API client module

+# Server API Implementation Plan
+
+> **For Claude:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task.
+
+**Goal:** Extract shared logic from main.py into a `core/` package, then build the FastAPI server that serves video files, manages the DB, and runs exports.
+
+**Architecture:** Shared logic (DB, ffmpeg, paths, annotations, tracking) moves to `core/`. Both `main.py` (Qt app) and `server/` import from `core/`. The server adds HTTP video streaming with transcode cache, REST endpoints, and WebSocket export progress.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Python 3.12, FastAPI, uvicorn, SQLite, ffmpeg
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Create core/ package — paths and helpers
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `core/__init__.py`
+- Create: `core/paths.py`
+
+**Step 1: Create core/__init__.py**
+
+```python
+# empty — package marker
+```
+
+**Step 2: Create core/paths.py**
+
+Extract from main.py lines 36-74: `_frozen_path`, `_bin`, `_log`, `build_export_path`, `build_sequence_dir`, `format_time`.

+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `main.py`
+
+**Step 1: Replace function definitions with imports**
+
+At the top of main.py, after the existing stdlib imports (line 17), add:
+
+```python
+from core.paths import _bin, _log, build_export_path, build_sequence_dir, format_time
+from core.ffmpeg import (
+    _RATIOS, resolve_keyframe, apply_keyframes_to_jobs,
+    build_ffmpeg_command, build_audio_extract_command, detect_hw_encoders,
+)
+from core.db import ProcessedDB
+from core.annotations import remove_clip_annotation, upsert_clip_annotation
+from core.tracking import track_centers_for_jobs
+```
+
+**Step 2: Delete the extracted function definitions and dead imports**
+
+Remove definitions from main.py:
+- Lines 36-74: `_frozen_path`, `_bin`, `_log`, `build_export_path`, `build_sequence_dir`, `format_time`
+- Lines 77-188: `resolve_keyframe`, `apply_keyframes_to_jobs`, `build_ffmpeg_command`, `build_audio_extract_command`
+- Lines 191-241: annotation functions (`build_annotation_json_path`, `remove_clip_annotation`, `upsert_clip_annotation`)
+- Lines 244-289: `detect_hw_encoders`, `_RATIOS`, `_portrait_crop_filter`
+- Lines 294-395: tracking functions (`_yolo_model`, `_get_yolo`, `extract_frame_cv`, `detect_subject_center`, `track_centers_for_jobs`)
+- Lines 398-626: `ProcessedDB` class
+
+Remove now-dead stdlib imports from the top of main.py:
+- `re` (only used in `detect_hw_encoders`)
+- `json` (only used in annotation functions)
+- `sqlite3` (only used in `ProcessedDB`)
+- `tempfile` (only used in `extract_frame_cv`)
+- `datetime`, `timezone` from the datetime import (only used in `_log` and `ProcessedDB`)
+
+Keep in main.py:
+- `_SELVA_CATEGORIES` (UI constant, line 291)
+- `_RATIOS` reference — imported from core.ffmpeg
+- `ExportWorker` (QThread-based, stays in main.py — the server uses `core.export.ExportRunner` instead)
+- `_DBWorker` and `FrameGrabber` (QThread-based, stay in main.py)
+
+**Step 3: Verify Qt app still works**
+
+```bash

+
+Open a video, export a clip, check markers — verify nothing broke.

+### Task 9: Create server/app.py — FastAPI skeleton + file listing
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `server/app.py`
+- Create: `server/routes/__init__.py`
+- Create: `server/routes/files.py`
+
+**Step 1: Create FastAPI app**
+
+`server/app.py`:
+```python
+from fastapi import FastAPI
+from .routes import files, stream, markers, export, hidden
+
+app = FastAPI(title="8-cut Server")
+app.include_router(files.router, prefix="/api")
+app.include_router(stream.router, prefix="/api")
+app.include_router(markers.router, prefix="/api")
+app.include_router(export.router, prefix="/api")
+app.include_router(hidden.router, prefix="/api")
+```
+
+**Step 2: Create file listing route**
+
+`server/routes/files.py`:
+```python
+import os
+from fastapi import APIRouter, Query
+from ..config import MEDIA_DIRS, VIDEO_EXTENSIONS
+
+router = APIRouter()
+
+
+def _scan_videos(root: str) -> list[dict]:
+    results = []
+    for dirpath, _, filenames in os.walk(root):
+        for f in sorted(filenames):
+            if os.path.splitext(f)[1].lower() in VIDEO_EXTENSIONS:
+                full = os.path.join(dirpath, f)
+                rel = os.path.relpath(full, root)
+                results.append({
+                    "name": f,
+                    "path": rel,
+                    "root": root,
+                    "size": os.path.getsize(full),
+                })
+    return results
+
+
+@router.get("/files")
+def list_files(root: str | None = Query(None)):
+    dirs = [root] if root and root in MEDIA_DIRS else MEDIA_DIRS
+    files = []
+    for d in dirs:
+        files.extend(_scan_videos(d))
+    return files
+
+
+@router.get("/roots")
+def list_roots():
+    return MEDIA_DIRS
+```
+
+**Step 3: Create `server/routes/__init__.py`**
+
+```python
+# empty — package marker
+```
+
+**Step 4: Create stub routers** so app.py imports don't fail. Each file gets a minimal router — later tasks fill in the real endpoints.
+
+`server/routes/stream.py`:
+```python
+from fastapi import APIRouter
+router = APIRouter()
+```
+
+`server/routes/markers.py`:
+```python
+from fastapi import APIRouter
+router = APIRouter()
+```
+
+`server/routes/export.py`:
+```python
+from fastapi import APIRouter
+router = APIRouter()
+```
+
+`server/routes/hidden.py`:
+```python
+from fastapi import APIRouter
+router = APIRouter()
+```
+
+**Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add server/
+git commit -m "feat: add FastAPI app with file listing endpoint"
+```

+### Task 10: Create server/routes/stream.py — video serving + transcode cache
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `server/cache.py`
+- Create: `server/routes/stream.py`
+
+**Step 1: Create cache manager**
+
+`server/cache.py` handles:
+- Computing cache paths from source file hash + quality
+- Checking cache status
+- Launching background ffmpeg transcodes
+- Tracking in-progress jobs
+
+**Step 2: Create stream routes**
+
+```
+GET /api/video/{path}  — raw file, range requests
+GET /api/stream/{path}?quality=low — cached transcode, range requests (202 if not ready)
+GET /api/audio/{path}  — cached audio extraction, range requests (202 if not ready)
+GET /api/cache/status/{path} — cache status for all qualities
+```
+
+**Step 3: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add server/cache.py server/routes/stream.py
+git commit -m "feat: add video streaming with transcode cache and audio extraction"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 11: Create server/routes/markers.py — DB endpoints
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `server/routes/markers.py`
+
+**Step 1: Create markers/profiles/labels routes**
+
+```
+GET  /api/markers/{filename}?profile=default
+GET  /api/profiles
+GET  /api/labels
+```
+
+Uses `ProcessedDB` singleton from `core.db`.
+
+**Step 2: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add server/routes/markers.py
+git commit -m "feat: add markers, profiles, and labels API endpoints"

+### Task 12: Create server/routes/export.py + WebSocket
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `server/routes/export.py`
+- Create: `server/ws.py`
+
+**Step 1: Create export routes + WS**
+
+```
+POST   /api/export        — start export job
+GET    /api/export/{id}   — check job status
+DELETE /api/export/{path} — delete export from DB + disk
+WS     /ws/export         — real-time progress
+```
+
+Uses `ExportRunner` from `core.export`.
+
+**Step 2: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add server/routes/export.py server/ws.py
+git commit -m "feat: add export endpoint with WebSocket progress"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 13: Create server/routes/hidden.py
+
+**Files:**

+
+### Task 14: Create Dockerfile + docker-compose.yml
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `Dockerfile`
+- Create: `docker-compose.yml`
+
+**Step 1: Create Dockerfile**
+
+```dockerfile
+FROM python:3.12-slim
+RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y ffmpeg && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
+WORKDIR /app
+COPY core/ core/
+COPY server/ server/
+# Note: ultralytics + opencv-python needed only if subject tracking is used.
+# Add them here if tracking is required on the server.
