A ladder is a hue walk, not a brightness walk, so painting the hot end
backwards put the dim colour at the corner.  Sort the ramp by stock
brightness and follow the pane height for the bottom-left glow.

+## Re-sync the uv environment before doing anything
+
+The checked-out `.venv` is **not** portable. It is built by `uv sync`, and its
+`python` symlink points at a uv-managed interpreter path belonging to whichever
+machine created it (for example `/home/node/.local/share/uv/python/...`). When
+the repository is re-synced from the host, that interpreter is gone, the
+symlink dangles, and every `.venv/bin/*` command fails with:
+
+    .venv/bin/python: No such file or directory
+
+So always re-sync first — before tests, lint, the app, or any tooling:
+
+```bash
+uv sync
+```
+
+If it still fails, rebuild the environment once:
+
+```bash
+rm -rf .venv && uv sync
+```
+
+There is no project Python on `PATH`; use `uv run <command>` or the freshly
+synced `.venv/bin/python` explicitly.
+
+## Commands
+
+```bash
+uv sync                                # resync the environment (do this first)
+uv run pytest                          # full test suite
+uvx ruff check .                       # lint (ruff is not a project dependency)
+uv run beefy-player --list             # station ids for the current catalogue
+uv run python tools/ansi_art.py ...    # regenerate a provider's header art
+```

+song history and album art, with desktop media integration on Linux and macOS.
+It draws with your terminal's own ANSI palette on the terminal's default
+background, so it fits any theme, including transparent terminals.
 
-The station catalogue is pluggable. Beefy Player ships with
-**[SomaFM](https://somafm.com)** (its first and, at the moment, only provider),
-and the UI never talks to a station catalogue directly: it asks a
-[provider](#providers) for stations, song history and stream URLs. Adding
-another internet-radio catalogue is a self-contained module, not a rewrite.
-
-It runs the same way on **Linux** (PulseAudio/PipeWire) and **macOS**
-(CoreAudio, iTerm2/Kitty/WezTerm): MPRIS on the desktop bus where that exists,
-macOS Now Playing (Control Center and the media keys) where it does not.
-
-No existing radio client is used: the station list, playlists, song history,
-audio control, spectrum visualiser and media-session integration are all
-implemented here from public endpoints and open protocols.
+Thirteen station catalogues ship today, from SomaFM's curated channels to the
+62,000-station Radio Browser directory, loaded as you scroll and searched live
+as you type. Press `p` to switch catalogue without restarting.
 
 ## Features
 
-- **Live spectrum analyser** — 72 log-spaced bands with peak caps, a moving
-  gradient taken from your terminal's ANSI palette and a symmetric mirrored
-  spectrum. Six modes (`v`): mirrored bars, plain bars, oscilloscope,
-  scrolling waterfall spectrogram, a radial spectrum wrapped around the
-  centre, and a high-resolution braille oscilloscope (2×4 dots per cell).
-- **Synced spectrum, not a guess** — by default the analyser records your
-  actual audio output, so the bars follow what you hear (`SYNC`): the
-  PulseAudio/PipeWire monitor via `parec` on Linux, and a native Core Audio
-  process tap on macOS (no driver, no BlackHole, nothing to install). Without
-  an output capture it falls back to a muted second `ffmpeg` decode of the
-  stream (`FFT`, can drift), then to a synthesized display (`SIM`).
-- **Real artwork on iTerm2, Kitty and WezTerm** — Kitty uses the kitty
-  graphics protocol; iTerm2 (including on macOS) and WezTerm use their native
-  iTerm2 inline-image protocol. Images occupy exactly the ON AIR art cell box
-  and fall back to the procedural ANSI mosaic for other terminals, failed
-  loads, or blocked graphics passthrough. Images are cached in
-  `~/.cache/beefy-player/artwork`.
-- **Now playing** — artist, title, album, DJ, listeners, format/bitrate and
-  "played N minutes ago", with procedural ANSI-shaded album art that changes
-  per track. When the current track can be found on Bandcamp, a clickable
-  **Bandcamp ↗** link appears below it; otherwise the line stays hidden.
-- **Last played** — the full recent history, newest first.
-- **Every station** — with SomaFM that is the whole `channels.json` roster
-  (≈50 channels), live listener counts and genre search.
-- **Favourites** that float to the top, remembered between runs.
-- **Pluggable catalogues** — one `providers` module per radio network, selected
-  with `--provider` and remembered in the config file.
-- **Desktop media integration** — on Linux an
-  `org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.beefyplayer.instance<pid>` player exposes
-  `PlaybackStatus`, `Metadata` (title/artist/album/artUrl), `Volume`, and
-  `Play`/`Pause`/`PlayPause`/`Stop`/`Next`/`Previous`, so GNOME/KDE widgets,
-  lock screens, `playerctl` and the media keys pick it up. On macOS the audio
-  engine (mpv) publishes to the system **Now Playing** session, so Control
-  Center, the menu bar and the keyboard media keys drive the app the same way.
-- **Theme-aware** — every accent is emitted as native ANSI (not RGB), and the
-  background is the terminal default (`SGR 49`), so transparent terminals stay
-  transparent and the TUI adopts your shell/terminal colour scheme.
-- **Graceful degradation** — works with cached data offline, falls back to a
-  bundled station list, reconnects across ICE mirrors automatically, and uses
-  `ffplay` if `mpv` is missing.
+- **Live spectrum analyser** — 72 log-spaced bands with peak caps, a palette
+  gradient and a mirrored spectrum. Six modes (`v`): mirrored bars, plain bars,
+  oscilloscope, scrolling waterfall, radial spectrum and a high-resolution
+  braille oscilloscope.
+- **Synced to what you hear** — the analyser listens to your actual audio
+  output by default, so the bars follow the music. If that is unavailable it
+  falls back to decoding the stream, then to a simulated display.
+- **Now playing and history** — artist, title, album, DJ, listeners, bitrate
+  and "played N minutes ago", plus the full recent history. A clickable
+  **Bandcamp ↗** link appears when the current track can be found there.
+- **Real album art** — native images in Kitty, iTerm2 and WezTerm; an
+  ANSI-shaded mosaic in every other terminal.
+- **Thirteen station catalogues** — SomaFM (≈50 channels), Radio Paradise,
+  tilderadio, Bassdrive, dublab, Rinse FM, Refuge Worldwide, LYL Radio, The Lot
+  Radio, Cashmere Radio, Datafruits, aNONradio and the Radio Browser directory
+  (loaded as you scroll in popularity order, with live search across all
+  62,000).
+- **Favourites, search and schedules** — favourites float to the top and are
+  remembered between runs, including directory stations outside the loaded
+  page; search by title, genre or description, with live server-side search
+  across the Radio Browser directory; single-stream stations show their
+  broadcast schedule instead of a one-item list.
+- **Desktop media integration** — MPRIS on Linux (GNOME/KDE widgets, lock
+  screens, `playerctl` and the media keys) and Now Playing on macOS (Control
+  Center and the media keys).
+- **Sixteen palettes, theme-aware** — every colour is native ANSI against the
+  terminal's default background, so transparent terminals stay transparent and
+  the TUI follows your colour scheme. Press `c` to cycle palettes.
+- **Graceful offline** — cached stations and schedules, a bundled fallback
+  list, automatic mirror failover and `ffplay` when `mpv` is missing.
 
-## Requirements
+## Installation
 
-`beefy-player` is a normal Python application: there is nothing to compile and
-no distro-specific packaging. It runs on any Linux distribution or macOS with
-Python **3.10+** and a few command-line audio tools on `$PATH`.
+### Nix
 
-| tool | why |
-| ---- | --- |
-| `python3` | runtime (3.10 or newer; no exact version pin) |
-| [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) | creates the venv and installs every Python dependency from `uv.lock` |
-| `mpv` | playback and JSON IPC control |
-| `ffmpeg` | muted stream decode for the fallback analyser |
-| `parec` / `pactl` *(Linux)* | synced monitor capture for the spectrum (`pulseaudio-utils`; works with PipeWire) |
-| D-Bus session bus *(Linux)* | MPRIS desktop media integration (`playerctl` is handy for testing) |
-
-On macOS the spectrum capture is part of the app: it uses the Core Audio
-process-tap API (macOS 14.2 or newer), so there is no loopback driver to
-install.
-
-On macOS the media integration needs nothing extra: mpv is what the system's
-Now Playing session (Control Center, media keys) talks to.
-
-Install `uv` once (skip if it is already there):
+The flake builds the package, runs the test suite and wraps everything the app
+calls at runtime (`mpv`, `ffmpeg`, and PulseAudio's `parec`/`pactl` — PipeWire
+speaks the same protocol):
 
 ```bash
-curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
+nix run git+https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/beefy-player              # try it
+nix profile install git+https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/beefy-player  # install it
 ```
 
-`brew install uv`, `pipx install uv`, or a distro package also work. If your
-system Python is older than 3.10, let uv manage one: `uv python install 3.12`.
+In a NixOS configuration:
 
-### Linux
+```nix
+{
+  inputs.beefy-player.url = "git+https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/beefy-player";
 
-Install these with your package manager. Names are usually:
+  outputs = { nixpkgs, beefy-player, ... }: {
+    nixosConfigurations.myhost = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
+      modules = [
+        beefy-player.nixosModules.default
+        {
+          programs.beefy-player.enable = true;
+        }
+      ];
+    };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+Or, for a single user with Home Manager:
+
+```nix
+{
+  inputs.beefy-player.url = "git+https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/beefy-player";
+
+  outputs = { home-manager, beefy-player, ... }: {
+    homeConfigurations.me = home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {
+      modules = [
+        beefy-player.homeModules.default
+        {
+          programs.beefy-player.enable = true;
+        }
+      ];
+    };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+Both modules add one option, `programs.beefy-player.package`, so a pinned or
+overridden build can be substituted for the flake's own. The raw package
+(`packages.${system}.default`) and an overlay (`overlays.default`) are exported
+too. From a checkout, `nix develop` gives you `uv`, `ruff` and the audio tools
+for the usual `uv sync` / `uv run pytest` workflow; `nix build` builds and
+tests the package.
+
+### Arch Linux
+
+The `aur/PKGBUILD` here is AUR-ready, but the package is not published in the
+AUR: the AUR has closed new sign-ups, so there is no account to push it to.
+Build and install it from a checkout instead:
 
 ```bash
-# Debian / Ubuntu
-sudo apt install python3 mpv ffmpeg pulseaudio-utils dbus playerctl
-
-# Fedora (enable RPM Fusion for ffmpeg if needed)
-sudo dnf install python3 mpv ffmpeg pulseaudio-utils dbus-tools playerctl
-
-# Arch / Manjaro
-sudo pacman -S python mpv ffmpeg libpulse dbus playerctl
-
-# openSUSE
-sudo zypper install python3 mpv ffmpeg pulseaudio-utils dbus-1-tools playerctl
+git clone https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/beefy-player
+cd beefy-player/aur
+makepkg -si        # needs base-devel; builds, runs the test suite, installs
 ```
 
-For other distributions, install the equivalents. On a headless machine you
-can skip the audio/D-Bus tools and use `--no-audio` for a UI-only demo, though
-the synced spectrum needs `parec`/`pactl`.
+Once the AUR accepts new accounts again, the package can be published and
+`paru -S beefy-player` / `yay -S beefy-player` will work; until then `makepkg`
+is the only route. The `aur/PKGBUILD` is tracked and kept in sync with every
+release either way.
 
-### macOS
+The Python side is pulled in automatically. For audio, the output-synced
+spectrum and image passthrough through tmux, install the optional tools too:
 
 ```bash
-brew install mpv ffmpeg uv        # ffplay ships with ffmpeg
+sudo pacman -S mpv ffmpeg libpulse tmux
 ```
 
-That is enough to run: playback, artwork in iTerm2/Kitty/WezTerm, the synced
-Core Audio spectrum tap and the macOS Now Playing integration all work out of
-the box.
-
-The first time the analyser starts it asks macOS for **System Audio
-Recording** permission — a one-off prompt for your terminal (iTerm2, Kitty,
-WezTerm, …). Approve it under *System Settings → Privacy & Security → System
-Audio Recording*; no loopback driver, Multi-Output Device or audio routing is
-needed. If the permission is denied the tap only ever hands out silence, the
-analyser notices and falls back to `FFT` instead of showing dead bars.
-
-The tap records the **default output device**, which is also what mpv uses; if
-you point mpv elsewhere with `BEEFY_MPV_ARGS='--audio-device=...'` the
-analyser falls back to `FFT`.
-
-Terminal image rendering uses [Pillow](https://python-pillow.org/) and is
-implemented directly (Kitty TGP + iTerm2 OSC 1337) — no terminal probing.
-
-## Providers
-
-A *provider* is one station catalogue. It knows how to fetch the station list,
-how to fetch a station's recently played songs, and how to turn a station into
-a stream URL. Everything else — the UI, the player, the spectrum, the media
-session — is provider-neutral.
-
-```python
-# beefy_player/providers/base.py
-class RadioProvider(ABC):
-    id, name, homepage, brand, tagline, station_source, history_source, user_agent
-
-    async def fetch_stations(self, client) -> list[Station]: ...
-    def load_cached_stations(self) -> list[Station]: ...
-    def fallback_stations(self) -> list[Station]: ...
-    async def fetch_history(self, client, station_id) -> list[Song]: ...
-    def load_cached_history(self, station_id) -> list[Song]: ...
-    def fallback_urls(self, station) -> list[str]: ...
-    async def stream_candidates(self, client, station) -> list[str]: ...
-```
-
-SomaFM is the reference implementation, and it is quarantined in its own
-package: the `channels.json` schema, the `songs/<station>.json` history, the PLS
-layout and the guessed icecast mirrors all live in
-`beefy_player/providers/somafm/`. Nothing outside that package imports it; the
-app only ever holds a `RadioProvider`.
-
-Adding a catalogue:
-
-1. create `beefy_player/providers/<slug>/` with a `RadioProvider` subclass,
-2. register one instance in `beefy_player/providers/__init__.py`,
-3. run it with `beefy-player --provider <slug>` (or set `"provider"` in
-   `~/.config/beefy-player/config.json`).
-
-`RadioProvider.stream_candidates()` already implements the common strategy —
-resolve the station's playlists (with an on-disk cache), then try
-`fallback_urls()` — so most providers only have to supply the catalogue,
-history and mirror URLs.
-
-## Run
-
-From the repository root, sync the environment and start the app:
+### From source
 
 ```bash
-uv sync              # create .venv and install exactly what uv.lock pins
-uv run beefy-player  # run inside that environment
+uv sync
+uv run beefy-player
 ```
 
-You do **not** need to activate the venv. `uv run` uses `.venv` automatically,
-and re-syncs it first if `pyproject.toml` or `uv.lock` changed. If you prefer a
-traditional shell, run `source .venv/bin/activate` and then `beefy-player`.
-
-### Keeping the uv environment in sync
-
-`uv sync` is the command to remember. It is incremental, safe to re-run, and
-should be run after pulling changes, switching branches, or editing
-`pyproject.toml`:
+## Usage
 
 ```bash
-uv sync                  # make .venv match uv.lock
-uv sync --frozen         # strict: fail if uv.lock is out of date, never rewrite it
-uv lock --upgrade        # refresh uv.lock to the newest allowed versions
-uv sync --upgrade        # upgrade dependencies and sync .venv in one step
-rm -rf .venv && uv sync  # last resort if the venv was built by an older Python
+beefy-player
 ```
 
-Useful flags:
-
-```bash
-uv run beefy-player --provider somafm     # pick a station catalogue
-uv run beefy-player --play                # start the last station immediately
-uv run beefy-player --station defcon       # pick a station
-uv run beefy-player --volume 55
-uv run beefy-player --offline              # no network; cached/bundled stations
-uv run beefy-player --no-mpris             # no MPRIS / Now Playing, no media keys
-uv run beefy-player --list                 # print station ids
-uv run beefy-player --no-audio             # UI demo without mpv/ffmpeg
-uv run beefy-player --spectrum-source monitor  # force synced output capture
-uv run beefy-player --spectrum-source stream   # force the muted ffmpeg tap
-BEEFY_IMAGES=0 uv run beefy-player             # force the ANSI artwork mosaic
-BEEFY_IMAGES=tgp uv run beefy-player           # force Kitty/TGP artwork
-BEEFY_IMAGES=iterm2 uv run beefy-player        # force iTerm2/WezTerm artwork
-```
-
-Environment variables are prefixed `BEEFY_`; the pre-rename `SOMAFM_` spellings
-(`SOMAFM_IMAGES`, `SOMAFM_MPV_ARGS`, `SOMAFM_SPECTRUM_DEVICE`) are still
-honoured, so an existing shell profile keeps working.
-
 The UI wants roughly **84×24**; it also works smaller, just less pretty.

 ```bash
 playerctl -l

-`mpris:artUrl` is the track's album art when the provider supplies it,

+Settings live in `~/.config/beefy-player/config.json` (favourites, volume,
+provider and the last station tuned in each catalogue). Cached stations,
+schedules and artwork live in `~/.cache/beefy-player/`.
 
-- `beefy_player/providers/base.py` — the provider interface and the shared
-  toolkit: `httpx` client factory plus `.pls`/`.m3u` parsing and resolution
-  (cached for 8 hours), so providers only describe their own catalogue.
-- `beefy_player/providers/somafm/api.py` — async `httpx` client for:
-  - `channels.json` → stations, genres, listeners, `.pls` playlist URLs
-  - `<station>.pls` → resolved direct icecast URLs (cached 8h)
-  - `songs/<station>.json` → last played tracks (cached on disk)
-  Playlist and channel caching means the UI opens instantly and still works
-  offline.
-- `beefy_player/app.py` — holds one provider and one `Player`, ticks at 20 Hz,
-  and hands the widgets plain `Station`/`Song` objects.
-- `beefy_player/player.py` — mpv over a Unix-socket JSON IPC channel. Observes
-  `pause`/`volume`, handles mirror failover on `end-file`, auto-restarts a dead
-  engine, and uses `SIGSTOP`/`SIGCONT` when falling back to `ffplay`. On macOS
-  it also asks mpv to publish Now Playing and maps the media keys onto
-  `script-message`s that come back over the same IPC socket.
-- `beefy_player/spectrum.py` — analyser (44.1 kHz mono s16le from `parec`, or
-  the device's native float32 rate from the macOS tap). Prefers capturing the
-  real output: `parec` (PulseAudio/PipeWire monitor) on Linux, or a native
-  Core Audio process tap on macOS (SYNC, see `macos_tap.py`). Otherwise a
-  muted low-latency `ffmpeg` decode of the stream (FFT). Hann-windowed
-  2048-point FFT, log band grouping, auto-gain, fast attack/decay smoothing,
-  peak hold and waveform downsampling.
-- `beefy_player/macos_tap.py` — the macOS output capture, in pure `ctypes`
-  against Core Audio: `CATapDescription` → `AudioHardwareCreateProcessTap` →
-  private aggregate device → IOProc. No driver, no helper binary, no ffmpeg.
-- `beefy_player/mediasession.py` — picks the desktop media backend (MPRIS on
-  Linux, Now Playing on macOS) so the app has one platform-neutral interface.
-- `beefy_player/mpris.py` — `dbus-next` MPRIS service in its own thread with a
-  thread-safe command queue back into the UI (only loaded on D-Bus platforms).
-- `beefy_player/bandcamp.py` — searches Bandcamp's public autocomplete API for
-  the now-playing track (artist + track first, then artist + album, then the
-  album page) and returns a track URL when there is a match.
-- `beefy_player/widgets/` — Textual widgets rendered with native ANSI colours;
-  backgrounds are `ansi_default` (`SGR 49`), so transparent terminals stay
-  transparent.
+These stay in the usual XDG locations on every platform, macOS included;
+`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` and `XDG_CACHE_HOME` are honoured when set.

-
-These stay in the XDG locations on every platform (macOS included), so the
-same dotfiles/config work everywhere; `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, `XDG_CACHE_HOME` and
-`XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` are honoured when set. The app started life as

-## Notes / troubleshooting
-
-- **Artwork shows the mosaic?** Real images are auto-enabled for Kitty,
-  iTerm2 and WezTerm. Force a protocol with `BEEFY_IMAGES=tgp` (Kitty/TGP) or
-  `BEEFY_IMAGES=iterm2` (iTerm2/WezTerm); `BEEFY_IMAGES=0` forces the ANSI
-  mosaic. iTerm2 on macOS is detected from `TERM_PROGRAM`/`LC_TERMINAL`, and
-  empty or `0` values in `TMUX`/`ZELLIJ`/`STY` (exported by some wrappers) are
-  ignored so they cannot downgrade it. Kitty inside tmux is attempted through
-  tmux passthrough (enable `set -g allow-passthrough on`); iTerm2/WezTerm
-  inside tmux default to the mosaic. Images are cached under
-  `~/.cache/beefy-player/artwork`.
-- **Clock shows UTC?** The clock and song history use the system zone from
-  `/etc/localtime`; a non-UTC `TZ` overrides it. A container or dev shell can
-  inherit a build-time `TZ=UTC`, which the app deliberately ignores; bind the
-  host's `/etc/localtime` or set e.g. `TZ=Europe/Berlin` in the shell that
-  launches the app.
-- **MPRIS says off/error?** No session bus. Run from your desktop session
-  (the shell profile picks up `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus`). `dbus-run-session -- uv
-  run beefy-player` starts a private bus for testing, but desktop widgets won't
-  see it. macOS does not use MPRIS at all — see “Now Playing” above.
-- **No audio?** `beefy-player` needs `mpv` (preferred) or `ffplay`. Without
-  either, the UI still runs and tells you. Extra mpv args can be injected with
-  `BEEFY_MPV_ARGS` (e.g. `BEEFY_MPV_ARGS='--audio-device=...'`, which is the
-  macOS way to choose an output device).
-- **Spectrum says `FFT` instead of `SYNC`?** The monitor is unavailable or
-  failed, or you forced the stream tap. The bars are still real audio, but the
-  second stream can drift relative to playback. Use `--spectrum-source
-  monitor` to force sync, or `BEEFY_SPECTRUM_DEVICE=<source>` on Linux to pick
-  a specific monitor. `SIM` means the bars are synthesized.
-- **Diagnose artwork:** `uv run beefy-player --diagnose-images` prints the
-  detected protocol, widget class, terminal env, dependency versions and cache
-  path. If `protocol` is `None`, force it with `BEEFY_IMAGES=tgp` (Kitty) or
-  `BEEFY_IMAGES=iterm2` (iTerm2/WezTerm).
-- **`SYNC` but the bars are flat?** mpv may be playing to a different sink (or
-  directly to ALSA). Point `BEEFY_SPECTRUM_DEVICE` at that sink's monitor, or
-  use `--spectrum-source stream`.
+- **Artwork shows the mosaic?** Real images are auto-enabled for Kitty, iTerm2
+  and WezTerm. Force a protocol with `BEEFY_IMAGES=tgp` (Kitty) or
+  `BEEFY_IMAGES=iterm2` (iTerm2/WezTerm); `BEEFY_IMAGES=0` forces the mosaic.
+  `--diagnose-images` prints what was detected.
+- **No audio?** `mpv` is preferred, `ffplay` works as a fallback. Without
+  either, the UI still runs and tells you. Extra mpv arguments can be injected
+  with `BEEFY_MPV_ARGS`, e.g. `BEEFY_MPV_ARGS='--audio-device=...'`.
+- **Spectrum says `FFT` instead of `SYNC`?** Output capture is unavailable or
+  failed, so the analyser is decoding the stream instead; the bars are still
+  real audio but can drift. Force sync with `--spectrum-source monitor`, or
+  pick a specific monitor with `BEEFY_SPECTRUM_DEVICE` on Linux. `SIM` means the
+  bars are synthesized.
 - **macOS: spectrum stays `FFT`?** Grant your terminal **System Audio
-  Recording** permission (*System Settings → Privacy & Security → System Audio
-  Recording*), then restart the app; the status bar explains when the tap is
-  silent because of this. Also check that mpv is playing to the default output
-  device, since that is what the tap records.
-- **macOS: media keys do nothing?** Another app currently owns the Now Playing
-  session, or the app was started with `--no-mpris`, or the audio backend fell
-  back to `ffplay` (mpv is required for Now Playing). The status bar shows
-  `nowplaying on` when the integration is armed.
-- **macOS: Control Center shows only a title?** mpv publishes the stream's live
-  “Artist - Title” as the Now Playing title; artist/album fields and artwork are
-  not filled in by macOS for plain audio streams. The TUI itself always shows
-  the full metadata and album art.
-- **Bandwidth** is unchanged in SYNC mode (the monitor capture creates no
-  second stream). The FFT fallback opens one extra stream; if you are on a
-  metered link, use `--spectrum-source monitor` (or `--no-audio` for a UI-only
-  demo).
-- SomaFM is listener-supported: if you enjoy it, [donate](https://somafm.com/support/).
+  Recording** permission under *System Settings → Privacy & Security → System
+  Audio Recording*, then restart the app. Also check that mpv is playing to the
+  default output device, since that is what the analyser records.
+- **macOS: media keys do nothing?** Another app owns the Now Playing session,
+  the app was started with `--no-mpris`, or audio fell back to `ffplay` (mpv is
+  required for Now Playing).
+- **MPRIS says off?** There is no session bus. Run from your desktop session,
+  or use `dbus-run-session` for a private bus. macOS does not use MPRIS.
 
-## NixOS (optional aside)
-
-None of the above needs Nix. If you *are* on NixOS, `shell.nix` wraps the same
-`uv sync` / `uv run` workflow in an FHS environment, because uv installs
-manylinux wheels such as NumPy that expect `libstdc++.so.6` in the usual
-`/usr/lib` paths:
+## Development
 
 ```bash
-nix-shell            # enter the FHS dev shell
-uv sync
-uv run beefy-player
+uv sync                 # create the environment
+uv run pytest           # test suite
+uvx ruff check .        # lint
 ```
 
-- If you see `libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file`, make sure you
-  are inside `nix-shell`, then recreate the venv once with
-  `rm -rf .venv && uv sync`.
-- `nix-shell --run "..."` does not work with FHS `shell.nix` files; enter the
-  shell interactively and run commands there.
-- FHS shells need unprivileged user namespaces. `bwrap: No permissions to
-  create a new namespace` means they are disabled (for example in a locked-down
-  container); run the app on the host instead.
+Each catalogue is a self-contained provider module under
+`beefy_player/providers/`; `base.py` documents the interface. `tools/ansi_art.py`
+converts a PNG logo into half-block ANSI art. On NixOS, `nix develop` (or the
+older `shell.nix`) provides the same `uv sync` / `uv run` workflow.

+# AUR packaging for beefy-player
+
+An AUR repository holds exactly two tracked files, `PKGBUILD` and `.SRCINFO`.
+This directory is the staging area for both; the rest of the project is
+irrelevant to the AUR.
+
+## Build it locally
+
+```bash
+cd aur
+makepkg -si          # build, run the test suite, install
+```
+
+`makepkg -o && makepkg -e` skips the download/checksum phase, and
+`extra-x86_64-build` (devtools) builds in a clean chroot. The package builds
+with `base-devel` plus the `makedepends`/`checkdepends` listed in the
+`PKGBUILD`; every dependency comes from the official repositories, none from
+the AUR.
+
+## Publish to the AUR
+
+```bash
+git clone ssh://aur@aur.archlinux.org/beefy-player.git /tmp/aur-beefy-player
+cp PKGBUILD .SRCINFO /tmp/aur-beefy-player/
+cd /tmp/aur-beefy-player
+git add PKGBUILD .SRCINFO
+git commit -m "Initial import: beefy-player 1.2.2-1"
+git push
+```
+
+## Releasing a new version
+
+1. Set `pkgver` in `PKGBUILD` and `pyproject.toml`, and reset `pkgrel=1`.
+2. Point `_commit` at the commit carrying that version:
+
+   ```bash
+   git rev-parse HEAD          # or the tag, once one exists
+   ```
+
+3. Refresh the checksum:
+
+   ```bash
+   curl -fsSL "https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/beefy-player/archive/$_commit.tar.gz" | sha256sum
+   ```
+
+4. Regenerate the metadata (on Arch, or inside a chroot):
+
+   ```bash
+   makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO
+   ```
+
+5. Push to the AUR with the conventional commit message:
+
+   ```bash
+   git commit -am "upgpkg: beefy-player <pkgver>-<pkgrel>"
+   ```
+
+## Why the source is a commit archive
+
+Upstream publishes no tags or releases, so the checksum in `sha256sums`
+belongs to the archive of a specific commit rather than of a `v$pkgver` tag.
+Forge archives of a commit are deterministic, so the checksum stays stable.
+Once `v$pkgver` is tagged, replace the `source` line with
+
+```bash
+source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz::$url/archive/v$pkgver.tar.gz")
+```
+
+## Packaging notes
+
+- The wheel is built with `hatchling`; `theme.tcss` is force-included by
+  `pyproject.toml`, so it ends up in `site-packages/beefy_player/`.
+- `check()` runs the real test suite. It is offline by design (station
+  catalogues are fixtures and `mpv`/`parec` are faked), which makes it safe in
+  a build chroot with no network.
+- `mpv`, `ffmpeg`, `libpulse` (`parec`/`pactl`) and `tmux` are `optdepends`,
+  not `depends`: the player degrades gracefully without them and says so in
+  the UI. Users who want sound need `mpv` (or `ffmpeg` for `ffplay`) and, for
+  the output-synced spectrum, `libpulse`.
+- `license=('WTFPL')` is an SPDX identifier shipped by Arch's `licenses`
+  package.

+# Homebrew packaging for beefy-player
+
+A Homebrew **tap** is just a second git repository that Homebrew clones next to
+homebrew/core. There is no central submission, no review and no binary host:
+`brew` reads the Ruby formula from the tap, downloads the pinned source tarball
+and installs it on the user's machine.
+
+This directory is the staging area for the tap repository, which lives at
+**https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/homebrew-tap** (repo name `homebrew-tap`, so
+the tap name is `beefcarver/tap`).
+
+Because Homebrew's one-argument `brew tap` assumes GitHub, a Forgejo tap has to
+be tapped with its URL, and Homebrew 6+ also wants an explicit trust.
+
+## Install (user side)
+
+```bash
+brew tap beefcarver/tap https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/homebrew-tap
+brew trust --formula beefcarver/tap/beefy-player
+brew install beefcarver/tap/beefy-player
+```
+
+`brew update` refreshes the tap from then on; `brew upgrade` picks up new
+versions like any core formula. If the tap is mirrored to GitHub later,
+`brew install beefcarver/tap/beefy-player` becomes a one-liner, because that
+form auto-taps from GitHub and trusts only the formula it installs.
+
+## Publishing the tap (maintainer side)
+
+### 1. One tag per release, with a release asset
+
+The formula pins a stable URL plus a SHA-256, so it needs an immutable tarball.
+Do **not** point it at Forgejo's `/archive/v$VERSION.tar.gz` URL: those archives
+are generated on demand and are not guaranteed byte-stable. Attach a tarball to
+the release instead (Forgejo serves it at `/releases/download/<tag>/<file>`):
+
+```bash
+VERSION=$(uv run python -c 'import beefy_player; print(beefy_player.__version__)')
+git archive --format=tar.gz --prefix="beefy-player-$VERSION/" \
+  -o "beefy-player-$VERSION.tar.gz" "v$VERSION"
+sha256sum "beefy-player-$VERSION.tar.gz"
+```
+
+Create the tag on the mirror (`git push tildeforge "v$VERSION"`), upload the
+tarball to the `v$VERSION` release, then paste the URL and checksum into
+`Formula/b/beefy-player.rb`.
+
+### 2. Resolve the Python resources
+
+Every Python dependency (and its recursive dependencies) that is not provided by
+another formula must be declared as a `resource` so Homebrew installs with
+dependency resolution disabled. Never write these by hand:
+
+```bash
+brew tap beefcarver/tap /path/to/homebrew-tap   # local clone, or the URL
+brew update-python-resources --print-only beefcarver/tap/beefy-player
+brew update-python-resources beefcarver/tap/beefy-player
+```
+
+`pypi_packages exclude_packages: "numpy,pillow"` keeps the two native builds out
+of the resource list — they come from the `numpy`/`pillow` formulae, which ship
+bottles, and the virtualenv picks them up through system site-packages.
+`extra_packages: "dbus-next"` makes sure the Linux-only dependency is recorded
+even though the resolver runs on macOS.
+
+In a third-party tap, `--ignore-errors` records anything that cannot be resolved
+and leaves a `RESOURCE-ERROR` comment; the official taps do not allow that, a
+personal one does.
+
+### 3. Build, test and audit locally
+
+```bash
+brew install --build-from-source beefcarver/tap/beefy-player
+brew test beefcarver/tap/beefy-player
+brew audit --strict beefcarver/tap/beefy-player
+brew style beefcarver/tap/beefy-player
+```
+
+The formula's `test do` block runs `--version` and `--offline --list`, so it
+needs no network and no audio device.
+
+### 4. Push
+
+```bash
+git add Formula/b/beefy-player.rb && git commit -m 'beefy-player 1.2.2' && git push
+```
+
+## Version bumps
+
+For each release: tag, upload the tarball, update `url`/`sha256`, rerun
+`brew update-python-resources` (only needed when the dependency set or pins
+changed), install from source, test, push. `brew bump-formula-pr` only works
+against GitHub-hosted taps, so on Forgejo the bump is a `sed` plus a re-test.
+
+Optional `livecheck` support, so `brew livecheck --tap beefcarver/tap` can spot
+new tags:
+
+```ruby
+livecheck do
+  url "https://tildeforge.dev/beefcarver/beefy-player/tags"
+  regex(/^v?(\d+(?:\.\d+)+)$/i)
+end
+```
+
+## Bottles (optional)
+
+Without a `bottle do` block users build from source — for this app that means
+filling a virtualenv with pure-Python resources while `numpy`, `pillow`, `mpv`
+and `ffmpeg` arrive as bottles, so it is quick. Prebuilt bottles need Homebrew's
+GitHub Actions workflows, which cannot run on Forgejo; skip them unless the tap
+is also mirrored to GitHub.
+
+## Why a tap and not homebrew-core
+
+homebrew-core requires a tagged, immutable source URL and enough notability to
+be accepted at all (roughly 75+ stars / 30+ forks, or coverage that makes a
+project notable). A tap has none of those constraints, which is why upstream
+taps are the normal route for a project this size. The formula here follows
+core's conventions, so it could be submitted there later unchanged if the
+project qualifies.

+"""Turn a logo into half-block ANSI art for the header hero.
+
+The header hero is a handful of text rows, so an image has to survive a brutal
+downsample: two pixels per cell (upper/lower half block), one ANSI colour per
+half.  Colours are quantised to the stock 16-colour ANSI palette on purpose —
+the rest of the UI never emits RGB, and a hero built from palette names still
+reads as the station's art in any terminal theme.
+
+Usage:
+
+    python tools/ansi_art.py logo.png --cols 22 --rows 7
+    python tools/ansi_art.py --url https://tilderadio.org/logos/tilderadio.png \\
+        --cols 22 --rows 7 --module beefy_player/providers/tilderadio/hero.py
+
+``--preview out.png`` draws what the cells will look like, which is much easier
+to judge than a wall of ▀ and ▄.
