History

I built the original prototype for the decoding and playing "back-end" components of this with a simple play/pause TUI by hand (free range, organic, bespoke code) while streaming on Twitch.

After that proof-of-concept, I vibed the remainder of the features to completion with Claude. This is now certified slop, but it does what I need it to reasonably well.
