Two confirmed-from-code-reading bugs in the wishlist retry chain.
Both cause downstream post-process to render every retried file as
``01 - <title>`` without year in the folder path, even when the
source slskd file had the correct track number embedded and Spotify
had the album release date.
**Bug A — track_number defaults to 1 at every link in the chain.**
Pre-fix: ``.get('track_number', 1)`` defaulted at four sites:
- ``core/wishlist/payloads.py:121`` ``ensure_wishlist_track_format``
- ``core/wishlist/payloads.py:282`` Track-object conversion
- ``core/imports/context.py:421`` legacy album-info builder
- ``core/imports/pipeline.py:645`` final processing read
Each step "filled in" 1 when the upstream had dropped the key. The
downstream filename-extract fallback at ``pipeline.py:652`` ONLY
runs when the value is None — pre-filled 1 never matched, so the
fallback never fired, so the source filename's track number (e.g.
``08. No Sleep Till Brooklyn.flac``) was discarded in favour of the
default-1.
Fix: change every default from ``1`` to ``None`` along the chain.
The pipeline already has the right detect-and-recover logic — it
just needs the chain to stop poisoning it. Final ``< 1`` floor at
``pipeline.py:660`` still defaults to 1 as last resort, so callers
that genuinely have nothing still produce a valid number.
**Bug B — release_date dropped from cancelled-task wishlist payload.**
Pre-fix: ``build_cancelled_task_wishlist_payload`` only ``setdefault``ed
``name`` / ``album_type`` / ``images`` on the album dict. The
release_date field copy was load-bearing (when input was a dict, the
``dict(album_raw)`` copy preserved it), but when input was a bare
string the constructed dict had only name + album_type — no
release_date / total_tracks / etc.
Fix:
- Explicit comment on the dict-shape branch that release_date survives
via the unconditional ``dict(album_raw)`` copy + setdefault
semantics — so a future refactor that switches to a stricter copy
doesn't silently strip the field.
- String-shape branch now pulls release_date from
``track_info.album_release_date`` or ``track_info.release_date``
when present so the round-trip preserves the year for the path
template.
- track_data shape itself now carries ``track_number`` / ``disc_number``
at the top level (Bug A intersect — was dropping it entirely).
**Tests:** 4 new in tests/wishlist/test_payloads.py:
- ``test_ensure_wishlist_track_format_preserves_real_track_number``
- ``test_ensure_wishlist_track_format_keeps_missing_track_number_as_none``
- ``test_build_cancelled_task_wishlist_payload_preserves_track_number``
- ``test_build_cancelled_task_wishlist_payload_string_album_pulls_release_date_from_track_info``
14 payload tests pass; 879 across wishlist + imports + downloads
suites still green; 1410 wider suite all pass. Ruff clean.
Commits 2 + 3 of 3 in PR 2/4 of the wishlist-album-bundle issue fix
series. Commit 1 (94ba1d73) instrumented staging-match so the next
wishlist run produces the evidence we need to diagnose bug C
(staging-match silently drops album-bundle wishlist tracks); that
fix lands in a follow-up PR after the user's next reproduction run.
