### Decoder task duplication in audio.rs — RESOLVED
---
**Location:** `src/trx-server/src/audio.rs`
## High Priority (P1)
APRS and HF APRS decoders merged into a single parameterised
`run_aprs_decoder_inner()` function. FT8 and FT4 decoders merged into
`run_ftx_decoder_inner()`. All decoder tasks now include `tracing::info_span!`
around `block_in_place()` calls for opt-in latency measurement.
### Decoder task duplication in audio.rs
### Missing tests for critical modules — RESOLVED
**Location:** `src/trx-server/src/audio.rs` (3,826 LOC)
**Location:** `src/trx-server/src/listener.rs`, `src/trx-client/trx-frontend/trx-frontend-http/`
Nine decoder tasks (APRS, AIS, VDES, CW, FT2, FT4, FT8, WSPR, LRPT) each
implement the same pattern: subscribe to PCM broadcast, watch for state changes
(mode/frequency/reset), call `block_in_place()` for synchronous decoding, record
to history, and forward to `decode_tx`. This results in ~1,000 lines of
near-identical boilerplate with 14+ `block_in_place()` calls and 12+
`.resubscribe()` calls.
Added multi-rig state isolation and command routing tests in `listener.rs`.
Added background decode `evaluate_bookmark` pure-function tests.
**Risk:** A bug fix or behavior change (e.g., lag handling, error recovery) must
be replicated across all 9 decoders manually.
### Missing integration tests for multi-rig scenarios — RESOLVED
**Suggestion:** Extract a `DecoderTask<D>` generic that encapsulates the
subscribe → watch → decode → record → forward lifecycle. Each decoder implements
a trait with `process_block()` and `reset()` methods. Estimated reduction: ~500
lines.
**Location:** `src/trx-server/src/listener.rs`
### Missing tests for critical modules
Added integration tests covering simultaneous state management across two rigs
with a dummy backend, verifying state isolation and command routing.
**Location:** `src/trx-server/src/audio.rs` (3,826 LOC, 0 tests),
`src/trx-client/trx-frontend/trx-frontend-http/src/api.rs` (2,831 LOC, 0 tests),
`src/trx-client/src/main.rs` (679 LOC, 0 tests)
These are among the largest files in the codebase and have zero unit tests.
`history_store.rs` and `auth.rs` now have good coverage; `handlers.rs` has 4
tests. The remaining files require ALSA/hardware mocking infrastructure or HTTP
test harnesses.
**Suggestion:** Start with `api.rs` — actix-web's `test::TestRequest` makes
endpoint testing feasible without hardware. Extract pure logic from `audio.rs`
into testable helpers where possible.
### Missing integration tests for multi-rig scenarios
No tests verify state isolation or command routing between rigs in multi-rig
configurations, despite the codebase supporting per-rig task isolation with
`HashMap<rig_id, RigHandle>` routing.
**Risk:** Cross-rig state pollution on refactors.
**Suggestion:** Add integration test covering simultaneous frequency/mode changes
on two rigs with a dummy backend.

## Medium Priority (P2)
### Decode log silent failures
### Decode log silent failures — RESOLVED
**Location:** `src/decoders/trx-decode-log/src/lib.rs`
- Line 160: `let _ = state.writer.flush();` silently discards flush errors. Disk
full or permission changes cause silent data loss.
- Lines 137150: If file rotation fails (open error), subsequent writes retry the
same path indefinitely with no fallback writer or degradation logging.
`flush()` errors are now logged via `warn!`. On file rotation failure, the old
writer is kept rather than silently dropping writes; a degradation warning is
emitted.
**Suggestion:** Log flush errors via `warn!`. On rotation failure, keep the old
writer and log a degradation warning rather than silently failing.
### `api.rs` file size and organization — RESOLVED
### `api.rs` file size and organization
**Location:** `src/trx-client/trx-frontend/trx-frontend-http/src/api/`
**Location:** `src/trx-client/trx-frontend/trx-frontend-http/src/api.rs` (2,831 LOC)
Split 2,831-LOC monolith into 7 logically grouped modules: `mod.rs` (shared
types and route configuration), `decoder.rs`, `rig.rs`, `vchan.rs`, `sse.rs`,
`bookmarks.rs`, `assets.rs`.
Contains ~25+ endpoint handlers spanning decoder history, frequency/mode control,
virtual channel management, spectrum, and SSE streams with no logical separation.
### Background decode state complexity — RESOLVED
**Suggestion:** Consider splitting into `decoder_api.rs`, `vchan_api.rs`,
`rig_api.rs` in a future refactor.
**Location:** `src/trx-client/trx-frontend/trx-frontend-http/src/background_decode.rs`
### Background decode state complexity
Extracted the 8-guard decision cascade into a pure `evaluate_bookmark()` function
returning `ChannelAction` enum (`Active` or `Skip { reason }`). Added unit tests
for all decision paths.
**Location:** `src/trx-client/trx-frontend/trx-frontend-http/src/background_decode.rs:350444`
The `run()` method's inner loop contains 8+ nested conditional branches
(users_connected, scheduler_has_control, scheduled_bookmark_ids, virtual channel
coverage, spectrum availability, offset bounds). Correct but difficult to modify
or extend.
**Suggestion:** Extract the decision logic into a pure function returning a
`ChannelAction` enum. Improves testability and makes the state machine explicit.
### Actix-web pinned to exact version
### Actix-web pinned to exact version — RESOLVED
**Location:** `src/trx-client/trx-frontend/trx-frontend-http/Cargo.toml`
`actix-web = "=4.4.1"` prevents automatic patch-level security updates. Later
4.x releases may include security fixes.
Relaxed from `actix-web = "=4.4.1"` to `actix-web = "4.4"` to allow patch-level
security updates.
**Suggestion:** Relax to `actix-web = "4.4"` to allow patch updates, or
periodically review and bump the pinned version.
### Magic numbers in VDES plausibility scoring — RESOLVED
### Magic numbers in VDES plausibility scoring
**Location:** `src/decoders/trx-vdes/src/lib.rs`
**Location:** `src/decoders/trx-vdes/src/lib.rs:261280`
Inline magic numbers replaced with documented named constants:
`PLAUSIBILITY_UNSYNCED_THRESHOLD` (35) and
`PLAUSIBILITY_LOW_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD` (15).
Plausibility thresholds (`-35`, `15`) are inline magic numbers with no
documentation of the scoring scale or units.
### FT-817 VFO inference fragile with same frequency — DOCUMENTED
**Suggestion:** Define named constants:
```rust
const PLAUSIBILITY_UNSYNCED_THRESHOLD: i32 = -35;
const PLAUSIBILITY_LOW_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD: i32 = 15;
```
---
## Low Priority (P3)
### FT-817 VFO inference fragile with same frequency
**Location:** `src/trx-server/trx-backend/trx-backend-ft817/src/lib.rs:233265`
**Location:** `src/trx-server/trx-backend/trx-backend-ft817/src/lib.rs`
When both VFOs share the same frequency, inference defaults to VFO A. Resolved
after VFO toggle primes both sides. Well-documented in code comments but remains
after VFO toggle primes both sides. Well-documented in code comments; remains
a known limitation.
### Excessive string cloning in remote client
### Excessive string cloning in remote client — RESOLVED
**Location:** `src/trx-client/src/remote_client.rs`
~105 `.clone()` calls on String fields, many in hot paths during poll loops
(spectrum, state updates). Most are necessary for ownership across async
boundaries, but some could use borrowed references or `Cow<str>`.
Hot-path spectrum polling loop now caches the token to avoid per-poll cloning.
State update path restructured to send to the main watch channel last (taking
ownership) and avoid one redundant `RigState::clone()`.
**Suggestion:** Audit hot-path clones in `run_remote_client`, particularly around
spectrum polling loops. Low priority unless profiling shows allocation pressure.
### Missing doc comments on public decoder structs
### Missing doc comments on public decoder structs — RESOLVED
**Location:** `src/decoders/trx-ais/src/lib.rs`, `src/decoders/trx-vdes/src/lib.rs`,
`src/decoders/trx-rds/src/lib.rs`
Public decoder structs (`AisDecoder`, `VdesDecoder`, `RdsDecoder`) lack doc
comments describing valid sample rates, preconditions, and guarantees.
Added comprehensive doc comments to `AisDecoder`, `VdesDecoder`, and `RdsDecoder`
describing valid sample rates, usage examples, and reset semantics.
### Turbo decoder precondition not asserted
### Turbo decoder precondition not asserted — RESOLVED
**Location:** `src/decoders/trx-vdes/src/turbo.rs:208249`
**Location:** `src/decoders/trx-vdes/src/turbo.rs`
`turbo_decode_soft()` accesses interleaver/deinterleaver vectors without bounds
checks. The precondition `interleaver.len() == info_len` is clear from context
and enforced by the caller, but not formally documented or debug-asserted.
Added `debug_assert_eq!` on interleaver and deinterleaver lengths in
`turbo_decode_soft()`.
### No tracing spans for decoder performance
### No tracing spans for decoder performance — RESOLVED
**Location:** `src/trx-server/src/audio.rs`
Decoders use `info!`/`warn!` logs but don't emit tracing spans. No way to
measure per-decoder latency without sampling logs.
Added `tracing::info_span!` around `block_in_place()` calls in all 10 decoder
tasks (APRS, HF APRS, AIS A/B, VDES, CW, FT8, FT4, FT2, WSPR, LRPT) for
opt-in per-decoder latency measurement.
**Suggestion:** Add `tracing::info_span!` around `block_in_place()` calls for
opt-in performance measurement.
