release: v3.3.50

User reported two coupled issues in the accounts panel:
- "VOE Upload: CSRF-Token nicht gefunden. Bist du eingeloggt?" fires
  intermittently across multiple VOE accounts when "Accounts prüfen" runs.
  Each retry "fixes" one and breaks another — classic anti-bot burst response.
- The flat badge strip becomes unreadable with many accounts; user wants
  collapsible per-hoster groups with "N/M" headers and green/red indicators,
  click to expand to per-account detail.

DISCRIMINATOR CHECK (cheap before serializing): grep'd lib/voe-upload.js for
module-level state — none. Each new VoeUploader() carries its own cookie Map.
Burst-throttle on VOE's side is the only plausible root cause.

CONCURRENCY FIX in main.js runHosterHealthCheck:
- Group checks by hoster, run each hoster's group SEQUENTIALLY, groups in
  parallel (Promise.all of sequential runners). Cross-hoster parallelism
  preserved; intra-hoster bursts eliminated.
- Result array preserves input order via a result-index map.
- Hardening per review: dedup duplicate {hoster, accountId} entries before
  grouping (no wasted API calls if a caller ever sends duplicates), and entries
  missing accountId now return a clean "Account-ID fehlt" error instead of
  silently calling per-hoster checker with null config.
- Validate-credentials and checkSingleAccount paths unchanged (single-check
  payloads run the same way regardless).
- Latency trade-off acknowledged: 5 VOE accounts ~5x faster path → up to 25s
  for that hoster's column. That's the cost for reliability; the user's
  alternative was 0/5 working on burst-failed runs.

UI FIX in renderer:
- New _buildAccountHosterGroupHtml emits a collapsible per-hoster group
  reusing the existing .hoster-panel-header / .panel-arrow CSS pattern.
- Header shows "VOE 4/5" (ok-count / total-accounts), a green/red/amber/gray
  status dot, plus pills for "N deaktiviert" and "N Fehler".
- Default: auto-expand any hoster with errors, checking, or unchecked
  accounts; collapse all-green.
- Open-state memory tracks user clicks. Per review: also tracks errorsAtClose
  snapshot so a NEW failure since the user's close forces re-expand once.
  Prevents the "I closed it once and now silent failures hide forever" risk.
- Single-card updates also refresh the parent group's header counter via
  _refreshHosterGroupHeader.
- Flat badge strip in renderHealthCheckResults is now a no-op stub — the
  per-hoster headers carry the same info, less duplication.

Three-lens review (workflow wch4p9ee9): concurrency PASS_WITH_NOTES, ui-state
PASS_WITH_NOTES, comment-policy PASS (zero new // or /* */ comments).
Latent concerns from review applied as hardenings.

210/210 tests green, lint clean.

 **Symptom:** User wartet 5+ min auf Tauri-Build den ich mit "1-2min" angekündigt habe.
 **Regel:** Tauri-Release-Builds brauchen real 3-6 min (Rust + NSIS + MSI). Keine Zeitangabe oder ehrlich "kann 3-6min dauern" schreiben.
 **Wie anwenden:** Wenn User nach Status fragt: sofort `tail` des Logs + `ls` des Bundle-Ordners zitieren, nicht raten.
+
+## 2026-05-24 — Packaged-Electron Log-Pfade: nie __dirname/.. zum Schreiben
+**Symptom:** doodstream-debug.log hatte auf dem Server null aktuelle Einträge; nur alte Dev-Logs. Fehler "kein Filecode" war nicht diagnostizierbar.
+**Root cause:** `path.join(__dirname, '..', 'x.log')` zeigt im gepackten Build in `resources/app.asar` (read-only). `fs.appendFileSync` wirft EACCES, der `try/catch` schluckt es → null Production-Logs.
+**Regel:** Schreibbare Pfade IMMER über `app.getPath('userData')` (lazy `require('electron')`, Fallback `__dirname/..` nur für Tests/plain-node). Gilt für jede Datei die der gepackte App schreibt.
+**Wie anwenden:** Bei jedem neuen Log/Cache/State-File prüfen: wohin schreibt das im NSIS-Build? Nicht ins Install-Verzeichnis, nicht in asar.
+
+## 2026-05-24 — Hoster-Fehler: echten Status surfacen, nicht generisch schlucken
+**Symptom:** "upload_result Seite hat keinen filecode (<leeres textarea>)" — nichtssagend; User dachte doodstream-Format geändert.
+**Root cause:** XFileSharing liefert den echten Grund im `st`-Feld (Error: duplicate / file too big / …). Code ignorierte `st` komplett und warf nur den leeren Body.
+**Regel:** Bei Hoster-Parsefehlern immer die Server-Statusfelder (st/msg/code) + Kontext (welcher CDN-Node, war filecode da) in die Fehlermeldung packen. Format-Struktur unverändert + leerer Inhalt = Backend-Ablehnung, kein Parsing-Bug.
+
+## 2026-05-25 — Queue leer nach Update: Auto-Dedup zu aggressiv (nicht Save/Restore)
+**Symptom:** Queue gestoppt, App-Update -> nach Neustart Queue leer ("Dateien hierhin ziehen"). User dachte Save/Restore kaputt.
+**Root cause:** Queue WIRD korrekt gespeichert (pendingQueue) + restored. ABER `_autoDeduplicateFromLog` (läuft bei init nach restore) entfernte Jobs per `fileName|hoster`-Match gegen das GESAMTE Lifetime-fileuploader.log — UNABHÄNGIG vom Status. Pending 'preview'-Jobs, deren Datei früher mal hochgeladen wurde, flogen alle raus -> komplette Queue weg. "Update-spezifisch" nur weil der Server-App nur beim Update neustartet (normaler Restart hätte dasselbe getan).
+**Verifiziert:** Reale electron-config.json: 4 preview-Jobs, alle 4 Keys im Log -> alte Logik entfernt 4/4. Neue Logik (nur status==='done' droppen) entfernt 0/4.
+**Regel:** Auto-Cleanup/Dedup darf NIE pending/actionable User-Arbeit löschen. Nur genuin abgeschlossene ('done') Jobs decluttern. Lifetime-Logs sind Historie, nicht Session-Fortschritt — nicht als "schon erledigt"-Quelle für pending Jobs missbrauchen.
+**Wie anwenden:** Bei jeder Filter/Remove-Logik auf User-State: nach Status gaten, nicht nur nach Identitäts-Match gegen historische Daten.
+
+## 2026-05-28 — Doodstream "kein Filecode": Web-Scraping ist die falsche Ebene, API ist der Fix
+**Symptom:** Wiederkehrend "kein Filecode — Server gab leeren Link zurueck" bei großen Dateien (~1GB/7min Upload), trotz 3.3.26-3.3.29. Queue voll roter Fehler.
+**Root cause (recherchiert + verifiziert):** Der Web-Upload holt den Filecode aus einem XFileSharing-HTML-Formular. Bei langen Uploads kommt das Formular leer zurück, weil (a) der per-Seitenaufruf sess_id-Token über den 7min-Upload altert UND (b) der server-seitige File-Registration-Callback (cgi-bin/fs.cgi-Äquivalent) unter Last timeoutet → kein file_code gemintet. Wichtig: Das ist KEIN async-delay — die Datei taucht NICHT später in der Liste auf (die Registrierung, die sie listen würde, ist genau das was failt). File-list-Polling (wie Byse) hilft hier also kaum.
+**Fix:** Die offizielle doodapi.co JSON-API nutzen, wenn ein API-Key da ist — sie liefert result[0].filecode DIREKT in JSON (kein HTML-Formular) und nutzt einen persistenten api_key (kein alternder sess_id). Git-Historie: die API war der ORIGINAL-Pfad (initial commit); Web-Login kam später nur "als Alternative zum API-Key" — Key-Bevorzugung stellt also den gedachten Primärpfad wieder her, kämpft nicht gegen eine bewusste Entscheidung.
+**Regel:** Bei Hoster-Integrationen die offizielle API der Web-Scraping-Ebene vorziehen wo möglich. Empty-form/codeless-2xx = Hoster-Backend-Flake (hosterTransient), Account NICHT als tot markieren — auf BEIDEN Pfaden (Web + API) gleich klassifizieren.
+**Voraussetzung:** Engagiert nur wenn der Doodstream-Account einen gültigen API-Key hat (doodstream.com/settings). Keyless-Accounts bleiben beim Web-Pfad.
+
+## 2026-05-28 — Doodstream empty-form: live diagnosis confirmed API path is the fix
+**Verifiziert mit echtem Account-Key (read-only API-Calls):**
+- account/info → status 200, Key gültig, Storage unlimited. Premium ABGELAUFEN (2025-10-03) — Uploads gehen TROTZDEM.
+- upload/server → liefert gültigen Node (cv1130ed.cloudatacdn.com) auch ohne Premium → API-Upload-Pfad nutzbar.
+- file/list → 90.548 Dateien; Uploads landen server-seitig INTERMITTIEREND (viele Burn-Notice-Folgen genau im "Fehler"-Zeitfenster vorhanden). Das leere Formular ist also nicht "immer kaputt", sondern manchmal — der Web-Form-Registrierungs-Callback (fs-public.intconnect.net) timeoutet sporadisch.
+**Konsequenz:** API-Weg (result[0].filecode inline) umgeht den failenden Callback → richtiger Fix. file/list-Recovery ist NICHT tote Last (Dateien erscheinen ja) — aber bei 90k-Accounts MUSS man sort=created&order=desc erzwingen, sonst ist die frische Datei nicht auf Seite 1.
+**Regel:** Bei "geht manchmal/manchmal nicht" + Hoster mit offizieller API: erst per read-only API-Call (account/info, file/list) gegen den ECHTEN Account verifizieren statt am Client weiterzuraten. Das beendet Spekulations-Schleifen.

-# Perf/Stabilität Audit Log
+# Feature: Per-Hoster Toggle "Links in fileuploader.log schreiben"
 
-## Abgeschlossen in dieser Session
+## Goal
+Pro Hoster ein-/ausschaltbar machen ob dessen erfolgreiche Upload-Links in die fileuploader.log geschrieben werden.
 
-- [x] **3.1.3** — Doppel-Render beim Retry vieler Jobs entfernt.
-- [x] **3.1.4** — Byse disk-space als account-level klassifiziert (vorher fälschlich file-rejected).
-- [x] **3.1.5** — Pre-job-swap hinter Semaphore-Queue + Late-Resolve bei save-config.
-- [x] **3.1.6** — `JSON.stringify(files/hosters)` aus start-upload debugLog raus.
-- [x] **3.1.7** — Status-Change-Events im Renderer via rAF coalesced.
-- [x] **3.1.8** — Byse-Poller race-condition fix (kein "newFiles.length===1"-Fallback mehr) + transient-network-classifier mit 2 Tests abgesichert + Memory-Snapshot-Logger bei Batch-Boundaries.
+## Plan
+- [x] `lib/config-store.js` — `logToFile: true` zu `HOSTER_SETTINGS_DEFAULTS` (default an).
+- [x] `renderer/app.js renderSettings` — Checkbox "Links in Log schreiben" pro Hoster-Panel (`data-hs="logToFile"`, type=checkbox).
+- [x] `renderer/app.js saveSettings` — collection-loop erweitert: checkbox → boolean.
+- [x] `lib/log-policy.js` (neu, testbar) — `hosterLogToFileEnabled(hosterSettings, hoster)`, opt-out semantics.
+- [x] `main.js` — `shouldLogHosterToFile(hoster)` liest live uploadManager.hosterSettings, fallback configStore, dann default true. Guard vor appendUploadLog im done-handler.
+- [x] Tests: 8 log-policy + 2 config-store (default true, persist false). 147/147 grün.
+- [x] ESLint clean. Backup-Import robust (default-true bei fehlendem key).
 
-## Getestet / validiert
+## Verifikation
+- logToFile default true → bestehendes Verhalten unverändert für alle die's nicht togglen.
+- Toggle off für Hoster X → uploads von X werden NICHT geloggt, andere Hoster weiter schon.
+- Live-Wirkung: `uploadManager.hosterSettings` wird via updateSettings aktualisiert → greift auch mid-batch nach save.
 
-- 82 Unit-Tests grün
-- Error-Klassifikation (fileRejected / accountError / transient) hat jetzt eindeutige, getestete Trennlinien
-- Rotation-Pipeline durchspielbar in Tests (session memory, late-add, override-precedence)
-
-## Nicht angegangen (Follow-ups)
-
-- **Throughput bei 20+ parallelen Uploads** — bräuchte Lasttest-Setup mit Mock-Hoster; speculative ohne User-Beschwerde.
-- **Netz-Ausfall-Recovery** — Klassifikator getestet, echter Network-Interrupt-Integrationstest nicht gemacht (aufwendiger Setup, real-world: Transients werden korrekt erkannt).
-- **Live Memory-Tracking** — Batch-Boundary-Logging liefert jetzt Datenpunkte. Bei wachsendem `rss`/`heapUsed` über Batches hinweg: Leak-Verdacht, dann in DevTools profilen.
-
-## Bekannte externe Issues (nicht fixbar bei uns)
-
-- Byse "Not video file format" bei manchen MKV-Releases ist Byse-seitige Codec/Container-Validierung. Lösung: Datei vorher remuxen (z.B. mit mkvtoolnix).
-- Real-Debrid-Downloader + Multi-Hoster-Upload konkurrieren um File-Handles → WinError 5 beim Rename. Workaround: Downloader komplett durchlaufen lassen bevor Queue gezogen wird.
+## Seiteneffekte zu prüfen
+- Backup-Import/Export: hosterSettings inkl. logToFile mitnehmen (sollte automatisch da generisches Objekt).
+- Settings-autosave (checkbox change-event ist bereits gehandhabt in der bind-loop).
