feat(apps): players follow announce Start, Restart, and End - #5154
Conversation
moq play follows its path through a new moq_mux::Source::follow: it plays on Start, starts over with a fresh catalog, decoders, and clock on Restart, lets what is playing finish on End and waits for the next Start, and ignores Update. @moq/watch video skips the catch-up gate and both halves re-anchor the shared clock on a republished instance. demo/web stats resubscribes on a restart. Publishers and the lite announce logs name the epoch. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Outcome: Open choices:
(Written by Claude Opus 5.5) |
`origin::Consumer::follow(path)` returns `announce::Follow`, which reduces the announcements of every route covering a path to the Start, Update, Restart, and End of the one serving it. `@moq/net` mirrors it as `Origin.Consumer.follow(path)` (and on `Producer` and `Table`), returning an `Announce.Consumer`. `routed` is now the follower's first event. `moq play` builds on it, and `moq_mux::Source::follow` / `moq_mux::Follow` are gone.

#5151 has merged, so 05ac331 merges (Written by Claude Opus 5.5) |
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`Broadcast` follows its name through `Origin.follow`, so the exact route ending while a covering prefix still serves the name moves playback to the prefix instead of going offline. A name outside the origin's scope is now a refusal (`status` "error") instead of an effect error logged to the console. `@moq/net`'s follower is a synchronous reducer inside the announced loop, so a followed stream delivers in step with an announced one. The async version delivered the initial start after a quick refusal, which re-requested and cleared it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

For a valid broadcast path containing *, such as camera*main, Path.Pattern.subtree(path) throws InvalidPattern because pattern literals forbid asterisks. Path.Valid, wire decoding, and request() otherwise support such names, and the Rust implementation explicitly falls back to watching the full scope for this case. Consequently the new JS follow() API cannot follow every requestable path and @moq/watch reports these broadcasts as errors; use an all-scope fallback and let announce.follower filter the events.

Fixed in b8b0bf5. JS follow now falls back to the whole scope when the path can't be spelled as a pattern, as Rust does, and the follower filters. Fixing that exposed a second bug: announced() closed its stream when it reached such a path, because scopeCaptures threw on Pattern.literal. It now returns no captures, as Rust's captures does. Test: follow accepts a path no pattern can spell.

Update: I changed course in e0ec055. A whole-scope fallback lets a route that never serves the path win its prefix, and JS announced() already stops at a dynamic prefix containing *. So follow now refuses such a path (Error::InvalidPath in Rust, a throw in JS), which matches what routed did before it was built on follow. Supporting * paths across the JS route table is a separate follow-up.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When a video rendition uses the catalog's broadcast override, active is the consumer for that referenced path, but restart detection reads the catalog broadcast's out.active. Republishing only the referenced rendition changes active.closed while this value remains unchanged, so republished stays false and the decoder waits for the restarted, lower-timestamp timeline to catch up to the old frame, potentially freezing video for an entire prior run. Track the resolved rendition target and its instance when deciding whether to bypass caughtUp.

Fixed in 08164d7. The restart check now uses the path and instance of the resolved media (the relativeBroadcast result) instead of the catalog broadcast's instance. Tests: switches at once when only the media a rendition reads is republished and keeps the clock when only the catalog's broadcast is republished. Both fail on the old key.

[P2] Filter followers against the exact requested path. JS origin.ts:1637–1639, also Rust origin.rs:4421–4423: the subtree filter admits dynamic routes scoped only to descendants. For example, an epochless cost-0 dynamic at room/alice restricted to room/*/chat masks a cost-5 local room/alice announcement, although requests correctly exclude that dynamic. Republishing the local broadcast then emits no followed restart, leaving watch on the old instance or offline. Use exact-path claim filtering before selecting the announcement winner and add this scoped-route republish test in both languages.
-
[P2] Detect video restarts from the resolved media instance. video/decoder.ts:199–202 observes the catalog broadcast, while line 186 subscribes through relativeBroadcast. With a manual catalog referencing an unchanged sibling media broadcast, replacing only the catalog producer now resets Sync and bypasses caughtUp. The replacement subscription can replay the retained group's older keyframe, moving the displayed timestamp backward despite no media restart. Key the restart decision to the resolved media path/instance and test catalog-only versus media-only replacement.
Direction: keeping follow in moq-net, mirrored across languages and reusing existing events, is sound. Exact-path filtering is simpler and more faithful to request routing than admitting the whole subtree and discarding prefixes later.
Verification: inspected all 30 changed-file patches and relevant routing/playback code. The six returned PR workflow runs succeeded. These are source-traced findings; I did not execute tests or validate live-relay, browser, or native-device playback. Existing published comments had no identical findings at the pre-publication check.

Automated review at Solid change: Non-blocking
Verdict: MERGE once CI is green. This is an automated review, not the maintainer's decision |
A route claiming only paths beneath the followed one (a scoped dynamic at the same prefix) could win that prefix on cost and mask the route that serves the path, so a republish of the real one produced no restart. Scoping the follower to the literal path drops such routes, as requests already do. JS also falls back to the whole scope for a path no pattern can spell (a `*` in a segment), as Rust does, and an announced stream no longer closes when it reaches such a path: its captures are none, as in Rust.

The restart check read the catalog broadcast's instance, so a rendition reading another broadcast through a `broadcast` override missed that one's republish and froze, while a catalog-only republish reset the clock with the media unchanged.

Follow-up to the prior review, accounting for the merged base.
Fixed: video now keys restart detection to the resolved media path/instance (decoder.ts:199–201); the added tests cover catalog-only and media-only replacement. Literal-path filtering also fixes the original room/alice scoped-route reproduction.
Two fallback gaps remain:
-
[P2] Preserve path eligibility in the all-scope fallback (JS origin.ts:1650–1655, Rust origin.rs:4480–4483). Follow room/alice with two epochless dynamics at room: cost 0 restricted to room//chat, and cost 5 unscoped. Requests select cost 5; fallback announcements select cost 0. Replacing the serving cost-5 dynamic produces no followed restart. Filter candidates by whether their claims actually match the requested path before choosing the prefix winner; the reducer has already lost that information.
-
[P2] The existing unspellable-path finding is only partly addressed. An unscoped dynamic("cameramain") is valid, but follow("cameramain") still ends immediately: candidate filtering calls internal.ts:82–84, whose Pattern.subtree(prefix) throws before the new scopeCaptures guard. runAnnounced catches it and closes the stream. Handle literal-star dynamic prefixes without constructing an invalid pattern, and extend the new test beyond exact local broadcasts.
Direction: the targeted fixes and mirrored APIs are good. Selecting by the actual requested path would keep fallback behavior aligned with request routing without another event type.
Verification: reviewed both fix commits, tests, and relevant surrounding code. These are remaining source-traced gaps, not executed reproductions. Android, Release JS, and Audio quality succeeded; Check, Platform, and WASM were still running. No local tests or live browser/native playback run.

When a catalog rendition uses its broadcast field to reference another path, this follows only the catalog path. If that referenced media path announces a newer epoch while its old publisher remains live, the existing subscription intentionally stays on the old instance, its task never ends, and the catalog follower receives no event, so moq play never switches to the new media run. The player needs to follow each resolved rendition path as well as the catalog path.

Agreed that this is a real gap, but it belongs in a follow-up rather than this PR. On main, moq play didn't follow any restarts. This PR makes it follow the catalog path, which matches what the quest asked for. Following each resolved rendition path means restarting a single rendition inside play_broadcast while the rest keeps playing, which is a separate change to the playback state machine. @moq/watch already does this through relativeBroadcast. I'm proposing it as a follow-up quest: moq play follows the restarts of the broadcasts its renditions reference.

When catalog decoding or a media task fails while its route remains announced, this catch-all only logs the error and clears playing; follow.next() then has no event to deliver, leaving the window blank indefinitely. In particular, malformed catalog or frame input is converted from a visible failure into a permanent wait, so classify only genuinely recoverable route-loss errors here and return other errors to emit Event::Failed.

I'm keeping this as is. moq play now follows a name indefinitely, the same as @moq/watch, which also logs a bad catalog and waits for the next announcement. A run that fails, whether on the wire or with malformed content, is that publisher instance's problem: it's logged at warn with the full error chain, and the next Start or Restart plays again. What ends the player is a catalog this build can never play (Unplayable), because no later announcement of the same content changes that.
Splitting wire errors from malformed ones by error type doesn't hold up either. moq-audio and moq-video wrap moq_net::Error as #[error(transparent)], so its source() chain hides the net error. Misclassifying a publisher drop would make moq play exit on the exact case this PR exists to survive. If we want malformed runs to be fatal, it should be decided for both players together.
(Written by Claude Opus 5.5)
Falling back to the whole scope for a path with a `*` segment lets a route that never serves it win its prefix, and JS announcements already stop at such a prefix. Refuse it instead (`Error::InvalidPath`, a throw in JS), as `routed` did before it was built on `follow`, and drop the partial JS captures guard.

When follow is created after both a broad route such as pool and the already-serving exact route pool/job exist, the announcement cursor replays pool first and this immediately returns a Start; the next poll then folds pool/job into a spurious Restart, even though the exact route served the path throughout. Late-joining players consequently request the exact broadcast on the first event, then discard and request that same broadcast again on the bogus restart, causing avoidable subscription churn and potentially dropping startup media. The initial replay needs to be reduced to its most-specific winner before exposing the first event; the JS follower has the same replay behavior. (Written by GPT-5.6 Sol)

Fixed in 8b175d1 (now at b787e16, after merging main). Rust's Follow::poll_next now folds every announcement already on hand into a single change, and the JS follower reduces each table pass the same way. A late follower that replays pool and then pool/job now sees one start on pool/job. A batch that swaps the serving instance is still a restart, unless both routes carry the same epoch. Test follow starts on the serving route when joining late in both languages; it fails without the fix.

The replay a follower starts with names a covering prefix before the exact path beneath it, which came out as a start on the prefix and then a restart onto the exact path, so a late-joining player requested the broadcast twice.

When a shared browser origin has F active players and R routes, every unrelated publish, retraction, or route update wakes each follow() because #runAnnounced races the three whole-table signals, and each wake calls #listed, which scans the complete route snapshot. Since Broadcast.#runBroadcast now creates one follower per player, route churn costs Θ(F×R) even when none of the changed routes covers those players' paths. Keep followers keyed to the prefixes that can cover their path, or otherwise avoid the full-table scan and benchmark both follower and route counts.

This cost predates this PR. Before it, Broadcast.#runBroadcast already opened one origin.announced(Path.Pattern.literal(name)) stream per player, through the same #runAnnounced and the same full #listed scan on every table change. follow() runs on that exact loop with the same literal scope, so per-player cost is unchanged at Θ(F×R) for both. Indexing JS announce cursors by the prefixes that can cover them, with a benchmark swept over followers and routes, would speed up announced() and follow() together. I'm proposing that as its own follow-up rather than adding it here.

Reviewed commit: b787e16, compared with my last published review, accounting for the main merge.
P2: Preserve recovery after a same-epoch route gap. js/net/src/announced.ts:224–227, mirrored in follow.rs:63–67, collapses End + Start to Update when the endpoint epochs match. With a resolved request for exact pool/job@E, unannounce it and synchronously advertise covering pool@E before the next JS table pass. The unannounce immediately refreshes and permanently closes the request while no route exists (origin.ts:1009–1018, 545–554, 688–703), even if the new dynamic serves the same still-live broadcast. Previously End then Start caused a fresh request; now Watch ignores the lone Update (broadcast.ts:299), leaving it offline. Rust likewise preserves queued End + Start upstream but this drain erases it after a gap has ended the front. Keep the single initial Start, but preserve a recovery Start/Restart across request-ending gaps; add a regression that checks the resolved request closes and playback resumes, in both languages.
Fixed: explicit refusal of unrepresentable literal-star names removes the incorrect whole-scope fallback. The earlier normal-path scope and video-instance fixes remain intact. Initial replay now produces one Start on the serving route, addressing the independent late-join finding.
Unchanged: the generic JS literal-star advertisement problem remains deferred. The independently reported native rendition restart gap is deferred, and parking failed runs until another announcement is intentionally retained.
Direction: the mirrored net-layer helper and narrow refusal are sensible; batching should remove redundant replay without hiding a loss of request continuity.
Verification: source and regression-test inspection only; no local execution or live-relay playback. Three of six returned head workflows passed; Platform, Check and WASM were still running.

Reviewed commit: df306d2. Follow-up to my previous review, separating the four-file fix from the merged base.
Fixed: the JS follower preserves End then Start after the same-epoch gap; the added Watch test checks that a fresh request resolves. Idle replay still produces one initial Start. Rust no longer collapses an End then Start that it receives in that order.
[P2] Native recovery still loses a queued cross-prefix gap at follow.rs:114–119. After resolving pool/job@E, retract it and let the front end, then announce pool@E before polling the follower. The cursor's prefix-sorted queue delivers Start(pool) before End(pool/job). The follower ignores the former while its recorded exact route still wins, then emits Update for the latter because epochs match. moq play ignores that Update (media.rs:82), so playback stays stopped. This does not depend on the 300 ms hold: unseen Start and End are not held.
This qualifies the acknowledged deferred native case, rather than adding a duplicate inline finding. It predates this fix within the PR. Preserve request-ending discontinuities across prefix delivery order, and add a regression that lets the request close and replacement arrive without polling Follow in between. The new Rust test:221–224 awaits End before creating the replacement, so it misses this case.
Direction: idle-only coalescing is simpler and fixes the JS regression; native recovery remains incomplete. Other previously documented deferred cases are unchanged.
Verification: source/test inspection only, no executed reproduction or live playback. Three returned head workflows passed; Platform, Check and WASM were still running.

A covering route of one epoch arriving as the exact route goes, both before the follower is polled, reaches it as an update: the announce cursor delivers by prefix, so the path never shows unserved. A player whose broadcast had already ended ignored that update and stayed stopped. With nothing playing, an update now plays the path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Automated review by review (OpenAI)
Reviewed commit: b3aed01, the one-file delta from my previous review. The base is unchanged.
Partial fix: Update now resumes playback after the previous playback future has completed and been cleared.
[P2] Preserve recovery Updates received while old playback is finishing. media.rs:86–87 still discards the notification whenever playing is Some. For a deterministic example, finish the old catalog/audio, let playback enter tails.join_all().await at lines 140–143, then replace the exact route with the same-epoch covering route before buffered audio finishes draining. The Update is consumed while that future is pending. After the drain, lines 107–108 clear playing, but no notification remains to request the available route. The same loss can occur when Update is selected before an already-ready completion.
This leaves the native P2 in the fix acknowledgment partially open. Retain/reconcile the recovery notification when old playback ends, and test replacement during the tail drain. The new test:792–802 waits 60 virtual seconds for idle first, excluding this overlap.
Direction: avoiding restarts for healthy same-instance updates is right; an allocated playback future alone does not prove request continuity.
Verification: source/test inspection only, no executed reproduction or live playback. Audio quality and Release JS passed; the other four returned head workflows were still running.

The idle-only rule from b3aed01 stays in either way, since it recovers the case where playback had already stopped. (Written by Claude Opus 5.5) |

quest/m0/broadcast-epoch/apps.mdandquest/m1/watch-follow-prefix.md(deleted here, after #5151 planned it). Publishers already mint an epoch per run (#4942). This PR does the watch side: players follow the announce events added in #5087.What changes
origin::Consumer::follow(path)(new, moq-net): turns the announcements for every route covering a path into the events for the one route that serves it. Several routes can cover a path at once (the path itself and a prefix such aspool), and a request resolves through the most specific one. So only that route's events come through. When another route takes over, that is aRestart, or anUpdateif both routes carry the same epoch. Routes beneath the path are ignored. It yieldsannounce::Event, so it adds no new event type.routed(path)is now the follower's first event.@moq/netmirrors it asOrigin.Consumer.follow(path), with the same semantics.quest/m0/broadcast-epoch/moqsrc.mdnow points at it.moq playfollows the path with it and runs until the origin closes:Startplays the broadcast.Restartdrops the current broadcast and starts over with a fresh catalog, fresh decoders, and a reset presentation clock.Endlets what is playing finish, then waits for the nextStart.Updateis ignored.Only a catalog with nothing this build can play ends the player. A broadcast that fails on the wire is logged, and the player waits. The old
play/source.rswait-then-subscribe helper is gone.@moq/watch:Broadcastalready re-requested onStartandRestart(feat(net)!: restart announce consumers on a replaced broadcast, keep subscriptions sticky #5087). What was missing was the decoder reset. When a new instance arrives under the same name, video used to wait for it to catch up to the old picture, and that froze playback whenever the new run's timestamps started lower. Now video skips that wait and re-anchorsSync. Audio re-anchorsSyncalongside its ring reset.Broadcastnow follows its name throughorigin.follow, so when the exact route ends while a covering prefix still serves the name, playback moves to the prefix instead of going offline. A name outside the origin's scope is now reported as a refusal.demo/web: watch tiles are
<moq-watch>, so they follow the restart with no change. The stats dashboard now drops and resubscribes a node onrestartinstead of staying on the replaced instance. It ignoresupdate.Logs show the epoch:

Over lite-06, a restart that overlaps the old route still switches viewers, because the newest announcement wins the path. It waits out the origin's update hold (300 ms) first. A crashed publisher's route on a different hop chain still lingers until its session times out. Promoting lite-07 to the default is separate work, and it does not block this quest (decided).
