fix: address sync review findings; bump grpc; harden CI

[JonahMMay]

Summary

Follow-up to the CodeRabbit review on #8, plus CI hardening.

• Tests gate CI: removed || true from go test, so failing tests fail the job. The if: always() upload step still keeps the coverage profile.
• Pinned actions: every uses: points at a full commit SHA with a # vX.Y.Z comment, which Renovate keeps updated.
• golangci-lint pinned to v2.14.0 instead of latest.
• Checkout credentials: persist-credentials: false on release jobs that never push. The job that pushes the release tag still keeps them.
• Makefile: build-all stops at the first failed platform build (|| exit 1), is listed in .PHONY, and clean removes dist.
• CONTRIBUTING: the validation block lists the lint and coverage commands CI runs.

CodeRabbit findings from #8

• provider/provider.go:224, Search failure rule. The comments and error text said "every source failed", but the code returned ProvidersFailedError whenever any source failed and nothing matched. Just switching to len(failures) == len(tasks) would bring back the write-off problem the block comment describes (a transient Audnexus outage next to an iTunes "no result" would become a terminal no_match). I took CodeRabbit's second option instead: a blocked failure (401/403, which cannot change on retry) no longer counts. When nothing matches, the result is an error if every source failed or any failure is retryable (timeout, rate limit, unavailable); otherwise it is a clean no-match. This stops a permanently-403 source (AudiMeta) from keeping every unmatched item in the retry loop. Comments and the Error() text ("N audiobook provider(s) failed and none matched: ...", still free of status codes) now describe that. New TestSearchNoMatchFailureRule covers blocked+empty → no-match, unavailable+empty → error, all-blocked → error, and clean → no-match.
• provider/itunes.go:212, lookup identity. Fetch now returns only the result whose collectionId equals the requested id. The existing TestITunesFetchUsesLookupEndpoint requested 12345 against a fixture whose collection is 1440742 and passed only because of this bug; it now requests 1440742. New TestITunesFetchIgnoresUnrelatedCollections covers an artist-id expansion.
• provider/audnexus_test.go:147/176, itunes_test.go:108, provider_backfill_test.go:18, handler races. Handler observations now go through a mutex, atomic.Bool, or atomic.Int32. The race detector didn't flag them locally (the HTTP round trip happens to order them), but the memory model gives no guarantee.
• go.mod:7, grpc advisories. google.golang.org/grpc bumped from v1.75.1 to v1.83.2, with go mod tidy.
• CONTRIBUTING.md:22, SDK wording. It now says "the SDK version pinned in go.mod (a release tag or a pseudo-version...)".
• README.md:16, ID resolution. The sentence now matches fetchPrimary: tagged IDs go to their source, and a bare ASIN tries Audnexus and then AudiMeta.

Not changed: CONTRIBUTING.md:10, the issue channel. The finding is accurate, since issue creation is restricted on every Prairie repo, including prairie-server. Fixing it is a maintainer policy call (allow issue creation, or name a contact channel), so I haven't invented a route.

Lint

A full golangci-lint run now reports 0 issues (it was 10, previously hidden by only-new-issues): errcheck ×6 on deferred body closes, gofmt/goimports drift (main.go, audnexus.go, itunes.go, audible_scrape_test.go), and an ineffassign in TestStorytelDomain. That test overwrote s.domain() with a copy of its logic, so it never exercised domain(); it now asserts s.domain() directly.

Validation

golangci-lint run --max-issues-per-linter=0 --max-same-issues=0 ./...  # 0 issues (was 10)
go test -race ./... -count=1 -covermode=atomic -coverprofile=coverage.out  # ok
./scripts/check-coverage.sh coverage.out                               # coverage 95.3% (min 95.0%)
go run . manifest >/dev/null                                           # ok

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Audiobook lookups now return results only when the collection ID matches the requested ID.
  • Searches distinguish between unavailable sources and retryable source failures, reporting errors when results may be incomplete while treating blocked sources with no matches as a successful search.
• Documentation
  • Clarified how source-specific IDs are resolved, including the fallback sources used for unhinted ASINs.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes update provider search failure handling and iTunes ID matching. They also revise provider request cleanup and tests, pin CI and release actions, and update local validation guidance, build targets, and Go dependencies.

Changes

Provider behavior and maintenance

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Search failure classification provider/provider.go, provider/provider_sources_test.go	Search returns ProvidersFailedError for empty results when all providers failed or a failure is retryable. Tests cover forbidden, unavailable, and clean responses.
iTunes collection matching provider/itunes.go, provider/itunes_test.go	Fetch now skips results with zero or nonmatching collection IDs. Tests cover matching and unrelated lookup results.
Provider request handling and tests README.md, main.go, provider/audible_scrape.go, provider/audible_scrape_test.go, provider/audimeta.go, provider/audnexus.go, provider/audnexus_test.go, provider/provider_backfill_test.go, provider/scrape_helpers.go, provider/storytel_scrape.go, provider/storytel_scrape_test.go	Provider response-body close errors are explicitly discarded. Tests synchronize request observations and directly check the Storytel domain. The README describes source-specific ID resolution.

CI and project validation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
CI and release workflow behavior .github/workflows/ci.yml, .github/workflows/release.yml	Actions are pinned to commit SHAs. CI uses golangci-lint v2.14.0, and test failures now fail the workflow step.
Local validation and build setup CONTRIBUTING.md, Makefile, go.mod	Contributor guidance adds lint and coverage checks. build-all stops when a platform build fails, and clean removes dist. Go dependency versions are updated.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: quick104

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 59a5c

Local validation can use the wrong SDK, and a clean build-all run can fail until dist is recreated. Both have straightforward workarounds and should be fixed before relying on those workflows.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 59a5c

A blocked provider alongside a provider that finds nothing can now produce a successful empty search. If the blocked provider later becomes available, affected items may not be retried. The change does not show an authorization bypass, but the host’s recovery behavior needs confirmation.

Retained concerns

• Medium · reliability · inferred: If a source classified as blocked later recovers, a search with another source’s empty result may already have been treated as a final no-match. This is a recovery and failure-containment risk; the host’s persistence and revisit behavior remain unverified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• observed — Search request fields reach the provider aggregator through the existing metadata adapter. The changed classification affects its response, not provider selection or a newly added caller.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — Classified provider failures do not become authorization grants: aggregate errors map to retry-oriented RPC statuses, and the changed blocked classification determines only whether an otherwise empty search returns an error.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — The tests preserve errors for unavailable sources and for searches in which every source is blocked, limiting the changed success path to mixed blocked-and-empty results.
