Plugin: Ginjaninja Tools - List Protector - [Auto] Repair your lists in step with filesystem changes.

[ginjaninja 624]

Purpose and Function

• Protect playlists from unintended member removal (eg Library Move).
• I didnt like that after a folder move i would have to manually repair my playlists [and collections].
• Provides an auto and manual repair pathway using an evidential reasoning engine for candidate scoring.
• Evidence > Scoring > Belief > Decision (something like that :-))
• Put plainly, list member goes missing, plugin looks for missing member to repair the list.

Getting Started

• Start with auto repair disabled.
• Use checkboxes to protect (Prot) your  playlists, and repair (Repr) your playlists.

Disclaimers

• Vibe coded with Claude, backup database before 1st use until tested. Note this is being released in a less than perfect state, the intention is to gather feedback from users on wether the observations and weighting are establishing correctly/incorrectly scored candidates and in which circumstances.
