🚀 Feature Release - All Season Pilot Rolling, Management UI & Real-Time Sessions

Overview

Replaces Plex polling with a real-time Server-Sent Events (SSE) connection for instant session detection, notification delivery, and label syncing. Adds a bulk management UI for rolling monitored shows and a new "All Season Pilot Rolling" monitoring type.

Key Updates

Real-Time Plex SSE

• Instant event processing: Playback events and library scan events are received in real time via a persistent SSE connection to your Plex server, with automatic reconnection and heartbeat monitoring
• Faster rolling monitoring: Session expansion triggers immediately on playback start instead of waiting for the next polling cycle
• Faster notifications & label syncing: Both Plex mobile notifications and label sync now process immediately on library scan completion
• Status badge: Live connection indicator in the Plex Integration and Session Monitoring page headers with hover tooltips
• Graceful fallback: All polling jobs remain as a safety net and automatically skip when SSE is active

All Season Pilot Rolling Monitoring

• New monitoring type: Monitors the pilot episode (E01) of every season. When a user watches any season's pilot, that full season expands automatically. On inactivity reset, it reverts to pilots only
• Automatic pilot seeding: A scheduled sync job detects newly added seasons and monitors/searches their E01 automatically
• Every season visible in Plex: With Pilot or First Season Rolling, users only see S01 in Plex and may not know a show has 5 seasons. All Season Pilot Rolling gives every season an entrypoint so users can browse and watch whatever they want

Rolling Monitoring Management UI

• Manage Rolling button: New button on the Session Monitoring page opens a searchable, sortable, paginated table of all Sonarr shows with enrollment status badges
• Bulk operations: Select multiple shows and enroll, change monitoring type, or reset in a single action
• Multi-instance support: Filter by Sonarr instance when running multiple setups

Trust Proxy & Auth IP Logging (closes #1053)

• Real client IPs: request.ip now resolves to the actual client IP behind reverse proxies (nginx, Traefik, etc.), improving auth failure logs

Bug Fixes

• Plex server discovery: Unreachable connections are filtered out via live reachability checks during auto-discovery
• Connection priority: Non-relay connections now preferred over local relay connections
• Webhook pilot fast-path: Pilot episodes for rolling shows notify immediately without waiting for the season queue
• Season expansion race condition: Fixed Sonarr overwriting episode monitoring changes during post-add refresh
• Progressive cleanup: Rolling show cleanup correctly handles mixed monitor/unmonitor episode batches

Migration & Compatibility

Database migration required - runs automatically on startup. Adds the allSeasonPilotRolling monitoring type and a sonarr_series_id column to the junction table (backfills incrementally).
