Since the per-listener stream sessions refactor (Phase 3b), every browser gets
its own stream session — but the 1s 'tool:stream' socket broadcast still read
the legacy GLOBAL state (the DEFAULT session no real browser uses), so it told
every client "stopped" forever. The frontend skipped HTTP polling whenever the
WebSocket was up, so it only ever saw that wrong broadcast: the backend prep
downloaded the track, moved it into the session's stream folder and sat at
"ready" while the mini player showed nothing. Proxy users whose WebSockets
don't connect fell back to HTTP polling (session-correct) and streamed fine —
which is why this hid so well.
Fix: stream status is inherently per-listener, so stop pretending a global
broadcast can carry it —
- web_server.py: remove the 'tool:stream' emit from the tool-progress loop
(the broadcast thread has no request context; it can only ever see DEFAULT)
- media-player.js: the status poller always polls /api/stream/status (resolves
the caller's own session from the cookie); drop the dead broadcast handler
- core.js: unwire the 'tool:stream' socket listener
Observability fix that made this undebuggable: core/streaming/prepare.py used
getLogger(__name__) — outside the soulsync.* namespace where handlers attach —
so every prep log line (including failures) vanished from app.log. Moved to
get_logger("streaming.prepare") + a regression test locking the namespace.
34 streaming tests pass; ruff clean; web_server compiles; JS syntax-checked.
