The open creator report ('I still cannot post a chat message in the TEST tab',
feedback 'Chat polling couldn't start — Mock Chat Input is disabled') was a single
cause: the liveChatId never resolved. Two YouTube API facts:
1. The id lives in snippet.liveChatId — contentDetails has no such property
(TASK 44 read part=contentDetails: could never resolve).
https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/live/docs/liveBroadcasts
2. It only exists once the broadcast is LIVE — the official sample lists
broadcastStatus=active, and our fetch ran before the frame pump pushed RTMP
(enableAutoStart flips ready→live). A ready-state list legitimately returns
no id.
https://github.com/youtube/api-samples/blob/master/java/src/main/java/com/google/api/services/samples/youtube/cmdline/live/GetLiveChatId.java
Fix: GetBroadcastLiveChatIdAsync reads part=snippet and polls with a bounded
retry (10x/2s); PrepareAndStartLiveAsync starts the frame pump FIRST, then
resolves the id. Chat stays non-fatal. Docs ai.md/TASKS.md/HANDOFF.md +
MyMistakes recipe updated same commit. TASK 44.
Good Dog: ONE integration test (GetBroadcastLiveChatIdAsync_Polls_Snippet_...
) drives a broadcast that gains its id mid-retry and asserts every request used
part=snippet. Gate: clean build 0 warnings, vstest 318/318.

# ytLlive — Task List
|
||
|
||
> **Catalog:** task files live in [`TASKS/`](TASKS/) (one file per task). This file is the
|
||
> index. Memory-map conventions: [`schema.md`](schema.md); architecture/decisions: [`ai.md`](ai.md).
|
||
|
||
> **Checklist markers** — every task's Status line uses the same states:
|
||
> 1. ✅ — completed / shipped
|
||
> 2. 🔶 — in progress
|
||
> 3. ⏳ — blocked / waiting
|
||
> 4. ☐ — not started / queued
|
||
> 5. ❌ — exception (known-issue, deliberately excluded, or merged)
|
||
|
||
> **2026-09-01 — v1 = feature-complete ruling:** there is no v1.x. Everything queues to
|
||
> v1 or to **"Out of product — permanently"** (file end). Read those two sections before
|
||
> adding or reviving anything here.

## Open items (at a glance)
|
||
|
||
- **TASK 3** — items 16 (Text source) + 20 (RewardEvent capture → SQLite, Alerts' persistence half) open; **17 (Alerts) is DONE via TASK 43 (2026-09-24) — native six-event alert box**
|
||
- **TASK 9** — item 5 open (webcam identity key reconciliation)
|
||
- **TASK 10** — Velopack update URL pending
|
||
- **TASK 12** — queued future
|
||
- **TASK 13** — queued post-v1
|
||
- **TASK 14** — Branch 2 shipped; branch 3+ in progress
|
||
- **TASK 21** — UI picker slice remaining (Windows-only verification pending)
|
||
- **TASK 32–36** — all queued future work (2026-09-01)
|
||
- **Webcam resource lifecycle (2026-09-17)** — startup slice shipped (OS poll at start, single-camera
|
||
auto-lock, persistent red alert in the Layers panel on lock failure, re-polls until resolved); gate
|
||
slice shipped same day — webcam = app-level default, one per stream per scene, Add places the
|
||
default directly, offered only when a camera is ATTAINABLE (identity + live session, not just a
|
||
saved identity), app base lock keeps the session after the last placement is removed, startup
|
||
adopts a solo camera as default. TASK 26's app-wide gate superseded by creator directive. The App
|
||
Settings webcam selector is now **TASK 40 Unit A** (plan saved 2026-09-22). Remaining next slice
|
||
(user-queued): static (+) catalog rows (Background, YouTubeEvent, quoted labels) with reason-greying.
|
||
- **TASK 40 — App Settings round** — plan saved 2026-09-22 (`TASKS/task-40-app-settings-round.md`),
|
||
four units, one Good Dog test each: **A** active web camera section under Recordings (Change…
|
||
sub-menu = live enumeration incl. vcams; Tune… config dialog via `ICameraControlProbe`, live-only
|
||
tweaks), **B** gear moved top-left right of the wordmark (left-click App Settings, right-click
|
||
Bug/Feature/About), **C** persist output resolution default + surface default scene
|
||
transition/duration + confirm-before-End, **D** accent/theme color (consolidate 69 hardcoded
|
||
accent sites into a DynamicResource brush + picker). **Unit B (gear) is DONE early** — shipped 2026-09-22
|
||
as part of TASK 42 (top bar redesign): gear top-right of the brand, single click = the Settings/Bug/
|
||
Feature/About menu, removed from BottomBar. A + C + D remain queued.
|
||
- **TASK 37** — queued (2026-09-20): split the layout data into a `default` set (the established DB)
|
||
and a `current` set carrying the build-id; a saved `current` is honored only by the same build-id,
|
||
otherwise defaults load — enables one-click revert to defaults too. Capture needed work OUT of
|
||
current scope here; do not bolt it onto an in-flight change.
|
||
- **TASK 41 — Test Stream mode** — DONE 2026-09-22 (`TASKS/task-41-test-stream-mode.md`): a Test
|
||
button next to Start runs the real private-only go-live pipeline with `IsTestStream` set, and the
|
||
TEST drawer (right rail, third tab) hosts Mock Chat Input (real `liveChat/messages.insert` → ~2s
|
||
poll round-trip renders on the overlay) + simulated Subscriber/New Member/Super Chat events that
|
||
inject through the poller's `MessageReceived` seam (`IsSimulated` — YouTube's insert API only
|
||
creates text, so these are local-only by design; styled member/SuperChat rows validate the chat
|
||
overlay). **Real Stinger/TTS alert widgets resolved by TASK 43's native alert box.**
|
||
- **TASK 43 — Native events & alerts** — **DONE 2026-09-24** (`TASKS/task-43-native-alerts.md`):
|
||
StreamElements replaced with NATIVE YouTube events. Chat parity half: `YouTubeChatService` now
|
||
decodes all SIX `liveChat/messages` event types (`ChatEventKind` on `ChatMessage`) — the four
|
||
formerly-empty event rows fixed — and re-arms its poll on the server's `pollingIntervalMillis`
|
||
(streamList semantics, clamp 1000–6000ms, `maxResults=2000`). Alerts half: a new
|
||
**`SourceType.AlertBox`** ("Stream Alerts", one per layout) is an OBS-style celebration zone
|
||
where the six events play **six unique branded animations** (`AlertRenderer` + the
|
||
`AlertOverlayLayer` component; 33ms ticker, deterministic `Advance` test clock; idle =
|
||
transparent). Creator rulings baked in: free-sub mention = chat row only (no sub alert — YouTube
|
||
emits none), NO viewer count, every alert card carries the "made with LlamaCasty!" brand line.
|
||
- **TASK 44 — TEST-tab chat fix** — **DONE 2026-09-25** (`TASKS/task-44-test-chat-fix.md`):
|
||
the open creator report ("I still cannot post a chat message in the TEST tab") was a single
|
||
cause: `GetBroadcastLiveChatIdAsync` read `contentDetails.liveChatId` (lifeChatId lives in
|
||
**`snippet`**) AND ran before the broadcast was live (RTMP push flips ready→live via
|
||
enableAutoStart; YouTube only populates the id on live broadcasts — official GetLiveChatId.java
|
||
sample lists broadcastStatus=active). Fixed by reading `snippet.liveChatId` and polling with a
|
||
bounded retry after the frame pump starts; chat stays non-fatal.

## Out of product — permanently
|
||
|
||
These were explicitly ruled out:
|
||
|
||
- **D3D11 swap compositor** (superseded by software compositor; TASK 3 item 16)
|
||
- **Background removal** (ONNX/DirectML; TASK 3 item 19)
|
||
- **OBS-style source expansion** (game capture, browser source, media playlist, VLC, color-key, MIDI — the minimal source set is deliberate; creators who need more have graduated to OBS)
|
||
- **Multi-layout** (auto-save, single layout; multi-layout = OBS territory)
|
||
- **Cross-process stream resume** (API makes it impossible; creator ruling 2026-09-01)
