checkRulesAgainstBook/evaluateRule and the service's EvaluateRules
existed in two parallel universes: one over database.MediaItems (what
every query actually returns) and one over ListMediaItemsRow (what two
hand-written 45-field mediaItemsToListMediaItemsRow converters
produced — verbatim twins in the handler and the dashboard service,
with a URL-resolution side effect baked into a "converter"). The rule
fields (genre/series/author/language/publisher/copyright_year/tags)
all exist on MediaItems, so the evaluators now take the real row and
the converters, their three call-site loops, and the dead
ApplyAutoAssignRules entry point (zero callers) are gone.
The rules surface is wire-covered by the collections rules scenarios;
handlers+services suites and the full pin/H1/H3 battery green.
handlers textToString, router textToString, router getText, and utils
normText were four copies of the same NULL-to-empty unwrap (99 call
sites). One exported utils.PgTextString replaces them all; the private
normText (comparison normalizer) stays but is now the odd one out.
Harness fix found on the way: setupTestServer built a full wiring
literal for route registration and then RETURNED a second, sparser
literal that never copied AnnotationService — setup.AnnotationService
was always nil on the struct every test receives. Nobody noticed until
cross_library_move_test became the first caller (it previously used
the now-retired plain CreateMediaHighlight query); it now exercises
the real SaveHighlight path through the wired service.
