Embed yt-dlp via Chaquopy instead of shelling out to Termux
Verified end to end on an emulator: the probe resolves a real video and the
download lands 54,006,240 bytes of m4a, matching the size the probe predicted.
Two traps found by running it rather than reasoning about it:
- Chaquopy defaults to CPython 3.8, which yt-dlp no longer supports, so pip
silently resolves 2024.10.22 -- the last release that did, nearly two years
stale, and YouTube extraction does not work with it. The build succeeds and
the feature is dead. Pinned to 3.12, which gets 2026.8.19, and
YouTubeAudioTest now fails on any pre-2025 yt-dlp so it cannot regress
quietly.
- Chaquopy 16.1.0 calls org.gradle.util.VersionNumber, removed in Gradle 9,
so Gradle is pinned to 8.14.3 here while FeeDreader stays on 9.5. AGP stays
at 8.13.2. Chaquopy 17 requires AGP 9.x, so moving off this means bumping
all three together.
yt-dlp's JSON is parsed through a separate, unit-tested mapping rather than
inline in the Chaquopy call. It is a separate project on its own release
cadence and is the boundary most likely to drift, so a field going missing or
changing type should fail a test rather than crash on the phone. Parsed with
kotlinx.serialization because org.json is an empty stub off device, which
would have made the mapping untestable.
Audio-only by design: separate streams need ffmpeg to merge, the documented
yt-dlp failure mode on Android, and a pre-muxed audio stream has nothing to
merge. No ffmpeg dependency at all.
No proof-of-origin token support, deliberately -- obtaining one means running
Google's attestation script in a WebView, a different act from downloading,
and it is not needed from an ordinary connection.
Known risk recorded in CLAUDE.md: yt-dlp has deprecated YouTube extraction
without a JavaScript runtime, and there is no deno or node on Android.
