Book Dock finalize, which also files book requests, left each audio file's
duration empty until the next library scan. The player derives progress only
from those, so a filed audiobook stayed at 0% and never reached Continue
Listening. Finalize now measures them once metadata is applied.
Refs #1757
Use file identities for root-level imports and renames to match scanner
grouping and prevent unrelated books from sharing metadata.
Cover repeated scans, metadata write-back, and stable reading and file
identities with regression tests.
Fixes#1599
* fix(metadata): write finalized metadata back to the imported file
Finalizing a Book Dock file only moved the bytes, so a library with file
writes enabled kept the metadata the file was uploaded with rather than
the metadata the dock settled on. Schedule a write-back for every book a
finalize produces once all of them have their metadata, attributed to
the uploader.
Fixes#1385
* fix(metadata): schedule dock file writes after cleanup
Prevent a failed Book Dock cleanup from leaving a pending file write. Keep the integration assertion synchronized with the debounced writer and restore the missing directory stability mock for end-to-end coverage.

A file filed into a book that already existed was added without re-ranking, so the
book kept whichever file created it: an ebook that arrived first stayed primary in a
library that ranks audiobooks first. Imports and uploads now re-rank with the
library's priority, keep the current primary on a tie, and a rolled-back finalize
restores the primary it replaced.
Recurse into nested subfolders during book dock watcher scans and discovery so that books organized under category or author subdirectories are processed. Keep shared folders from claiming exclusive directory ownership so siblings and multi-track units can finalize and discard cleanly without collisions.
Closes#1311
Imports resolved the naming pattern with the download resolver, which keeps only the last
path segment, so the shipped default's author and series folders were dropped and every file
landed at the library root. Rename, bulk rename and move all kept them, leaving the app
disagreeing with itself about where its own import belonged.
Closes#1157
Book Dock was a single permission that the standard preset handed to every user, so an ordinary
account could pause processing, trigger a rescan, and finalize straight into the library. Keep
book_dock_access for personal upload and review, and move global control behind a new
manage_book_dock permission in the administration group.
Finalization now also requires library_upload, since it writes into a library. Per-file reads and
mutations are scoped to the uploader unless the caller can manage the dock, which closes the gap
that let any Book Dock user read, edit, or discard another user's entry by id. The summary
websocket now announces a change instead of broadcasting global counts, so each client refetches
its own scoped totals.
Closes#961
Replace metadata-based duplicate checks (ISBN, title/author) during BookDock finalization with destination path lookup. This allows books with shared or incorrect metadata to be imported whenever their resolved library target paths differ, matching the standard upload workflow.
Closes#736
Pass external provider IDs (including Hardcover and Open Library IDs) from book dock metadata selection through ingest and finalization so they are saved to book metadata on import.
Closes#704
Provide an action in the Book Dock finalize dialog to discard files that
are identified as duplicate candidates. This saves users from having to close
the finalize window, re-select the duplicates in the main queue, and manually
discard them.
Closes#591
The duplicate detection logic in BookDockFinalizeService previously identified books as duplicates if they had the same title, even if their authors differed, when ISBNs were unavailable. This has been updated to include author names in the duplicate check for books missing ISBNs to prevent incorrect duplicate identifications.
Closes#175
