This PR adds a connection for Jellyfin instances. Tested locally with a Jellyfin 12.1 instance and it seemed to work fine.

Please let me know if I missed anything.

📝 Walkthrough

This change adds Jellyfin as a connector with credential validation, book matching, and progress synchronization. It registers Jellyfin for scheduled and on-demand polling, starts polling after first-time account linking, and adds Jellyfin connection guidance and URL examples.

Changes: Jellyfin Integration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Connector and progress behavior
src/connectors/types.ts, src/connectors/jellyfin.ts, test/jellyfin.test.ts, test/connectors.test.ts
The connector adds Jellyfin credentials, server-version validation, book matching, progress import and push. Tests cover connector registration, progress conversion, authentication, matching, and progress synchronization.
Polling, registration, and progress fan-in
src/connectors/registry.ts, src/connectors/fanin.ts, src/connectors/refresh.ts, src/connectors/store.ts, src/index.ts, src/routes/v1/connectors.ts, docs/API.md
Jellyfin is registered for scheduled and on-demand polling. The application starts hourly polling, and a successful first-time link starts an initial sync. Polling updates canonical progress and fans updates out to other connectors.
Jellyfin connection surfaces
app/src/Settings.jsx, src/connectors/server-url-examples.ts, src/routes/web.ts, src/routes/landing.ts, README.md
Connection forms provide Jellyfin guidance, URL examples, and a service-specific button label. The landing page and README list Jellyfin.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 436bc

Jellyfin’s polling paths are consistently wired, but the fan-in documentation still omits Spotify and Kindle while describing their polling. This is a bounded documentation discrepancy, so mergeability risk is low.

Review comments at @src/connectors/fanin.ts:
- Around line 381-388: Update pollJellyfin to select users with Jellyfin
connector matches without requiring a connector_reveals row; preserve the
existing match-based polling behavior for normal Jellyfin accounts.

Review comments at @src/connectors/jellyfin.ts:
- Around line 68-70: Update sessionKey to key the sessions cache by deviceId(c)
instead of including the password, and bound the module-level sessions Map by a
maximum size or TTL. Preserve the existing session lookup and invalidation
behavior.
- Around line 137-155: Update the retry handling in call so a 403 from the fresh
session is returned as a per-item failure, not interpreted by getJson as
requiring reauthentication. Preserve reauthentication behavior when the fresh
login itself fails.

Review comments at @src/routes/v1/connectors.ts:
- Around line 230-236: Update the first-link flow in the connector route so the
Jellyfin poll does not run before matches exist: resolve matches first,
following the `spotifyFirstSync` flow, then call `pollConnector`; if an initial
import is not intended, remove this first-link poll instead.

280-280: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Move away from the obsolete /Users/{userId}/Items/... routes.

Jellyfin 12.0 still accepts these routes, but treats paths with a user ID as legacy. The 12.0 release notes say that clients should not use an endpoint or parameter that the OpenAPI specification marks as obsolete. They also say that a deprecation stays marked for an entire major release cycle before the endpoint or parameter can be removed. The supported form passes the user ID as a query parameter instead of in the path. listCurrentlyReading already uses /UserItems/Resume?UserId=. Change the other calls so that the connector uses one route style. This prevents every Jellyfin read and write from failing after these routes are removed:

  • Line 280: /Items?userId=...&Recursive=true&IncludeItemTypes=Book&...
  • Line 370: /Items/{id}?userId=...&Fields=RunTimeTicks
  • Lines 411 and 439: /UserItems/{id}/UserData?userId=... for both GET and POST

Update the URL matchers in test/jellyfin.test.ts when you make this change.

Also applies to: 370-370, 411-411, 439-439

Review comment at @src/connectors/jellyfin.ts at line 280:
Update the Jellyfin item and UserData request URLs to use the supported route
forms with UserId as a query parameter instead of embedding the user ID in the
path, matching the style used by listCurrentlyReading. Apply this to the book
search, item details, and UserData GET and POST calls, and update the
corresponding URL matchers in the Jellyfin tests.

- Line 664: Update the Fan-in read-connector list in the heading to include
Spotify and Kindle, keeping the existing connector names and following
description unchanged.

Review comments at @src/connectors/jellyfin.ts:
- Line 215: Update the person-role check in the writer/author detection flow to
inspect both `person.Type` and `person.Role` independently, so an empty or
unrelated `Role` does not mask a `Type` identifying a writer or author. Preserve
the existing case-insensitive matching behavior.
- Around line 424-522: Update the newer-event comparison in push so it compares
Jellyfin’s parsed LastPlayedDate milliseconds directly with ev.timestamp
converted to milliseconds. Preserve the early success return when the remote
timestamp is newer, including fractional-second differences.
