sudacode 8797719a09 docs(docs-site): correct and clarify docs against current code
Comprehensive accuracy pass over docs-site verifying every page against
current source. Fixes wrong/stale claims (AniSkip default, YouTube track
selection, Anki sentence-card requirements, immersion schema v18 + SQL
column names, plugin entrypoint, launcher flags, Cloudflare deploy path,
etc.) and fills gaps (watch history, mediaCache.maxHeight, youtubeSubgen,
character-dictionary refresh/eviction, expanded hot-reload lists).

# AniSkip Integration
SubMiner integrates with [AniSkip](https://aniskip.com) to automatically detect anime intro intervals and let you skip them with a single key press.
Intro detection runs in the SubMiner app over the mpv IPC socket. It is available whenever the overlay is connected to mpv - not just at launch - and covers every local file loaded during an mpv session, including playlist advances.
## Setup
AniSkip is enabled by default. Disable it or change the skip key in your config:
```jsonc
{
"mpv": {
"aniskipEnabled": true, // default: true
"aniskipButtonKey": "TAB",
},
}
```
Both settings hot-reload: changing them in your config takes effect immediately without restarting playback or mpv.
For best title and episode detection, install [`guessit`](https://github.com/guessit-io/guessit):
```bash
python3 -m pip install --user guessit
```
Without `guessit`, SubMiner falls back to an internal filename parser which handles most common naming conventions but may miss unusual formats.
## How It Works
On each local file load:
1. SubMiner infers the anime title, season, and episode number from the filename and path (using `guessit` if available, otherwise the built-in parser). Remote URLs are skipped entirely.
2. The title is matched against MyAnimeList to resolve a MAL id.
3. SubMiner queries the AniSkip API for an OP skip interval for that MAL id and episode.
4. If an interval is found, SubMiner adds `AniSkip Intro Start` and `AniSkip Intro End` chapter markers to the current file and binds the skip key (`mpv.aniskipButtonKey`, default `TAB`).
5. At the start of the intro, an OSD prompt appears for 3 seconds: `You can skip by pressing TAB` (reflects your configured key). Pressing the key at any point during the intro seeks to the intro end.
When a custom key (other than `TAB` or `y-k`) is configured, the legacy `y-k` chord is also bound as a fallback skip trigger.
Results are cached per file for the app session; only definitive "no intro found" results are cached, so transient lookup failures are retried on the next file load. Reload detection is also handled: if mpv reloads the same file, SubMiner re-applies the chapter markers without a new API lookup.
## Triggering from mpv
You can trigger AniSkip actions from mpv script-messages:
| Command | Effect |
| ------- | ------ |
| `script-message subminer-skip-intro` | Skip to the intro end immediately (same as pressing the key) |
| `script-message subminer-aniskip-refresh` | Force a fresh lookup for the current file, discarding any cached result |
These are handled by the SubMiner app over the IPC socket.
