+
+**Imported: 5 / 6.** EP06 is age-restricted on YouTube and the sibling
+downloader had no authenticated cookie store — see Known caveats.
+
+## Naming rules applied
+
+Cited section numbers refer to files under `docs/`:
+
+- **`docs/05` §0 rule 5 — mandatory `(Year)`.** Year `2022` (from manifest)
+  appended to the show folder and every episode basename, even though the
+  show name is unique in the library.
+- **`docs/05` §2 + `docs/08` §1.2 — TV canonical layout.** Final layout is
+  `Show (Year)/Season NN/Show (Year) - SxxEyy - Title.ext`. Applied
+  literally across all 5 episodes.
+- **`docs/05` §2.1 + `docs/08` §4.2 — zero-padded `Season 01`.** All five
+  files placed under `Season 01/` (single-playlist → single-season default).
+- **`docs/08` §1.2 — zero-padded two-digit episode marker.** `S01E01`
+  through `S01E05`, never `S1E1` / `1x01` / `Ep1`.
+- **`docs/08` §2.1 + §3.4 — strip channel-pollution prefix and
+  bracket/id tags.** The repeated `SASSY_THE_SASQUATCH_`, the `EPxx_`
+  fragment, and the `[<videoId>]` suffix in raw filenames were all
+  removed; only the human-readable episode title survives in the
+  canonical name.
+- **`docs/08` §2.5 — underscores → spaces.** `WATER_YOU_TALKINABEET` →
+  `Water You Talkinabeet`; `AREA_51` → `Area 51`; `SEEN_A_DINOSAUR` →
+  `Seen a Dinosaur`; `SNOW_WORRIES` → `Snow Worries`; `WALKABEET` left
+  as a single word.
+- **`docs/08` §5.1 — smart title case.** All-uppercase YouTube titles
+  recased; small word `a` lowercased mid-title (`Seen a Dinosaur`); the
+  number `51` preserved as-is (`Area 51`).
+- **`docs/05` §0 rule 3 / `docs/08` §5.5 — ASCII-only, no forbidden
+  characters.** Source titles contained no `< > : " / \ | ? *`, so no
+  substitutions were needed; verified post-rename.
+- **`docs/08` §1.1 / §1.2 forbidden list — no resolution/codec/group
+  tags.** `1080p`, `av01`, `opus`, `WEB-DL`, etc. all stripped; canonical
+  names contain title only.

+
+| Field | Value |
+|---|---|
+| Series id | `b2d1afd8a4a30c59adb42ccaf47376c2` |
+| Series name | `Sassy the Sasquatch` |
+| ProductionYear | `2022` |
+| Path | `/media/tv/Sassy the Sasquatch (2022)` |
+| Provider ids | `Tmdb=321760  Imdb=tt21209936  Tvdb=421839` |
+| Episode count | 5 |
+| Direct-play (E01 sample) | `SupportsDirectPlay=True`, `SupportsDirectStream=True`, `SupportsTranscoding=False`, video `av1` profile Main, audio `opus` |
+| Library scan | `RefreshLibrary` reached `Idle / Completed` < 10 s after `POST /Library/Refresh`; full series refresh queued via `POST /Items/.../Refresh?Recursive=true&MetadataRefreshMode=FullRefresh&ImageRefreshMode=FullRefresh` (HTTP 204) |
+
+All 5 episodes mapped to correct `SxxEyy` via filename → Jellyfin parser
+(no manual identify required).
+
+## Known caveats
+
+1. **EP06 age-restricted, not imported.** YouTube requires authenticated
+   cookies for `bi_HbwZDdPg` (`AS ABOING SO BADOING`); sibling downloader
+   ran without a logged-in browser session. Library currently shows
+   5/6 episodes. Operator's call whether to retry with cookies or
+   accept the gap.
+2. **Jellyfin display titles uppercase.** TVDB has the official episode
+   titles entered in all-caps (`SEEN A DINOSAUR`, etc.) and Jellyfin
+   prefers provider data over filename-derived titles. Filenames on disk
+   remain canonical-cased per `docs/08` §5.1; only the API/UI display
+   layer follows TVDB. Not a bug.
+3. **No subtitles.** Source has YouTube auto-generated captions only;
+   sibling did not pull them, so no `.srt` / `.ass` siblings exist in
+   the library.
+4. **Cross-device hard-link failure during staging.** Sibling's first
+   staging attempt at `/tmp/yt-norm/staged/` failed (`/tmp` is `tmpfs`,
+   source is on LUKS+ext4); re-staged at `/home/admin/yt-norm-staged/`
+   on the same FS. Net disk impact: zero (inode-only links). Cosmetic.
+5. **Brief said "6 episodes," manifest had 6 with 1 failed.** Reconciled
+   to actual 5 successful downloads; counts in this log reflect reality,
+   not the brief.
+
+## Source manifest copied
+
+Top-level fields of `manifest.json` (sibling agent's output, originally at
+`/home/admin/yt-import-staging/manifest.json` on onyx):
+
+```json
+{
+  "show_name": "Sassy the Sasquatch",
+  "year": "2022",
+  "channel": "THE BIG LEZ SHOW OFFICIAL",
+  "channel_id": "UCV1G6JkQtB2nobFm3MGNsBQ",
+  "playlist_id": "PLGMC7oz7XpmDMGrALMQiNXCi9p7aqkWbj",
+  "playlist_title": "SASSY THE SASQUATCH",
+  "raw_dir": "/home/admin/yt-import-staging/raw",
+  "downloaded_count": 5,
+  "failed_count": 1,
+  "total_bytes": 155724794
+}
+```
+
+The full per-episode `episodes[]` array is **not** embedded here. Trace
+each episode by canonical path under the live tree on nullstone:
+
+```

+# IMPORT-LOG
+
+Append-only ledger of media-import events for ARRFLIX. Each file in this
+directory documents a single import operation so future audits can trace
+content on disk back to its provenance.
+
+## Convention
+
+- **One file per import event.**
+- **Filename format:** `YYYY-MM-DD-<source>-<show-slug>.md`
+  - `<source>` is the upstream type (`youtube`, `tvdb-rip`, `bluray`, `manual`, etc.).
+  - `<show-slug>` is the lowercase show name with `-` separators.
+  - Example: `2026-05-08-youtube-sassy-the-sasquatch.md`.
+- **Date** is the day the import landed on the live library (not the day the
+  source was published).
+
+## Required sections
+
+Each entry should include:
+
+1. **Source** — upstream URL/handle, channel/distributor, identifiers.
+2. **Date imported** — ISO-8601.
+3. **Episodes imported** — table mapping source identifier → canonical
+   filename → Jellyfin item id (resolution + size where applicable).
+4. **Naming rules applied** — citations of the `docs/0X.md` rule numbers
+   invoked, with a short note on the specific edit each made.
+5. **rsync stats** — `sent / received / speedup` from the transfer.
+6. **Jellyfin verification** — series id, episode count, direct-play status.
+7. **Known caveats** — anything that wasn't perfect (missing metadata,
+   failed thumbnails, age-restricted episodes, etc.).
+8. **Source manifest copied** — top-level fields of the operator's
+   `manifest.json`. Do **not** embed the full `episodes[]` array — link to
+   the canonical files in the live library instead.
+
+## Boundaries
+
+- **No access tokens, API keys, or session cookies** in any log file.
+- For YouTube imports, **do not include full video URLs** — record the bare
+  `videoId` only, so import logs are not indexable as a re-distribution
+  pointer.
+- Logs are **immutable once committed**. To correct a mistake, append a
+  follow-up entry rather than rewriting history.
