Spooty Operations Snapshot

GET /api/operations/snapshot exposes backend-owned operational truth for Workspace and other clients.

The MVP reports truth Spooty already owns without a schema migration:

• track state from TrackEntity.status
• selected YouTube URL from TrackEntity.youtubeUrl
• selected YouTube candidate title, author, score, and reason from TrackEntity
• raw failure evidence from TrackEntity.error
• download retry count from TrackEntity.downloadAttemptCount
• rejected YouTube candidates from TrackEntity.rejectedYoutubeUrls
• playlist and single-song counts from PlaylistEntity.isTrack
• queue depth and active jobs from BullMQ queues track-search-processor and track-download-processor
• Spotify connection presence from the stored Spotify user token

The endpoint intentionally does not infer candidate scoring history. Selected candidate metadata is persisted when Spooty chooses a candidate. Rejected candidates are still persisted only as URL strings.

Future persistence work is required for:

• full searched candidate history
• structured rejected candidate metadata beyond URL
• structured error class fields stored at write time instead of classified from the persisted raw error string
• operation attempt history across search and download phases
