Several guards in the code only make sense if you know the intent behind them, and read as removable if you do not — the restriction of background audio analysis to local files, the DRM skips in providers, and the per-service concurrent stream limits. This writes down why they are there, so they survive the next person who tidies up. - rules for providers that stream from a music service, in `DEVELOPMENT.md` - the same rules for contributors and coding agents, in `AGENTS.md` / `CLAUDE.md` - a line on the analysis restriction and the Soundcloud DRM skip, where they live **Related issue (if applicable):** - n/a ## Types of changes - [ ] Bugfix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue) — `bugfix` - [ ] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality) — `new-feature` - [ ] Enhancement to an existing feature — `enhancement` - [ ] New music/player/metadata/plugin provider — `new-provider` - [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected) — `breaking-change` - [ ] Refactor (no behaviour change) — `refactor` - [ ] Documentation only — `documentation` - [x] Maintenance / chore — `maintenance` - [ ] CI / workflow change — `ci` - [ ] Dependencies bump — `dependencies` ## Checklist - [x] The code change is tested and works locally. - [x] `pre-commit run --all-files` passes. - [x] `pytest` passes, and tests have been added/updated under `tests/` where applicable. - [ ] For changes to shared models, the companion PR in `music-assistant/models` is linked. - [ ] For changes affecting the UI, the companion PR in `music-assistant/frontend` is linked. - [x] I have read and complied with the project's [AI Policy](https://github.com/music-assistant/.github/blob/main/AI_POLICY.md) for any AI-assisted contributions. - [ ] I have [raised a PR against the documentation repository](https://github.com/music-assistant/music-assistant.io/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) targeting the main or beta branch as appropriate. --- Links to https://github.com/music-assistant/.github/pull/1, which adds the usage policy itself. --------- Co-authored-by: OzGav <[email protected]> Co-authored-by: Copilot Autofix powered by AI <[email protected]>
