Per the amended §9.6, the cast list and cast photos come off title detail. The
section is noise on a page whose job is deciding what to grab.

What to change

Remove the cast surface from both the SPA and the API.

  • web/index.html — the #movie-cast and #series-cast sections with their
    #rows-cast and #rows-series-cast lists.
  • web/src/main.ts — castItem, the cast painting in the movie and series
    metadata painters, and the cast fields on the mirrors in web/src/movie.ts
    and web/src/series.ts.
  • web/src/style.css — every .cast-* rule, including the responsive ones.
  • crates/arr-api/src/metadata.rs — the cast field on both metadata
    responses, its schema type, and the assertions covering it.

Everything else on the page stays: poster, backdrop, rating, runtime, genres,
tagline, overview, the TMDB / TVDB / Rotten Tomatoes links and the trailer chip.

Done looks like

  • Neither metadata endpoint returns a cast field, and the OpenAPI document
    reflects that.
  • Neither detail page renders a cast section, and no dead CSS or dead TypeScript
    is left behind.
  • The rest of both detail pages is visually unchanged.

Non-goals

  • crates/arr-meta keeps its CastMember type and keeps requesting credits
    in append_to_response. The TMDB call is unchanged; only what arr exposes
    changes. Trimming the append list is separate and not worth the churn.

Depends on: #159

Per the amended §9.6, the cast list and cast photos come off title detail. The section is noise on a page whose job is deciding what to grab. ## What to change Remove the cast surface from both the SPA and the API. - `web/index.html` — the `#movie-cast` and `#series-cast` sections with their `#rows-cast` and `#rows-series-cast` lists. - `web/src/main.ts` — `castItem`, the cast painting in the movie and series metadata painters, and the `cast` fields on the mirrors in `web/src/movie.ts` and `web/src/series.ts`. - `web/src/style.css` — every `.cast-*` rule, including the responsive ones. - `crates/arr-api/src/metadata.rs` — the `cast` field on both metadata responses, its schema type, and the assertions covering it. Everything else on the page stays: poster, backdrop, rating, runtime, genres, tagline, overview, the TMDB / TVDB / Rotten Tomatoes links and the trailer chip. ## Done looks like - Neither metadata endpoint returns a `cast` field, and the OpenAPI document reflects that. - Neither detail page renders a cast section, and no dead CSS or dead TypeScript is left behind. - The rest of both detail pages is visually unchanged. ## Non-goals - `crates/arr-meta` keeps its `CastMember` type and keeps requesting `credits` in `append_to_response`.
