Changes

🚀 Feature Release - React Query & Apprise Improvements

Overview

Migrates Dashboard and Approvals UI to React Query for improved performance and loading states. Adds format-aware Apprise notification batching and TMDB deep links across all content notifications.

Key Updates

React Query Migration

• Dashboard overhaul: Date/limit filters, user popovers with stale-while-revalidate loading patterns
• Approvals feature: Server-side pagination, sorting, and multi-select filtering
• Shared user options: New useUserOptions hook provides consistent user selection across features
• Better loading states: Skeleton loaders and optimistic updates replace manual loading spinners

Apprise Notification Improvements

• Email Sender: Admins configure SMTP once, users enter just their email address instead of full Apprise URLs - works in Discord bot, user edit, and System Apprise URL fields
• Format-aware batching: HTML notifications sent separately from text-native services (Discord, Telegram, Slack) - prevents raw HTML appearing in text channels
• Format detection cache: Reduces redundant Apprise API calls with 24-hour TTL
• Standardized text formatting: Clean, consistent plain text output for services that don't support HTML
• TMDB deep links: All content notifications now include direct links to TMDB (movies, shows with season/episode support)

First-Start Experience

• Checklist dialog: New users see a guided checklist before initial sync to ensure proper configuration
• Version display: App version now shown in header bar for easier troubleshooting

Bug Fixes

• Plex label sync: Case-insensitive label comparisons prevent duplicate labels (e.g., "pulsarr-user-john" vs "Pulsarr-User-John")
• Webhook modal: Auth header fields now visible when editing endpoints with existing headers
• Approval filters: Multi-select enabled for content type and triggered-by filters
• SQL injection prevention: LIKE wildcards properly escaped in approval search queries
• Modal confirmations: Async handlers awaited before closing modals to prevent race conditions

Technical Changes

New Hooks & Utilities

• useApprovalModalActions - Extracted approval action logic from components
• useWorkflowMutations - Centralized workflow start/stop mutations
• getTmdbUrl - Utility for generating TMDB deep links with full test coverage

Refactoring

• Removed withMinLoadingDuration wrapper in favor of React Query mutation states
• Consolidated duplicated code across approvals feature
• Renamed utilities/stores/ to utilities/store/ for consistency
