HandleHomeSections flow to remove ordinary, non-featured sections that have no
remaining items after watched-item filtering, preventing stale TotalCount values
from producing empty shelves. Preserve featured sections and sections where
PreserveWatchedItemsOnHome returns true, and retain sections that still contain
items.

Why I wanted this
Related work: #714
PR #714 adds the watched controls and indicators. This PR builds on that work with an optional way to make Home feel more like a discovery screen.
I still want watched indicators and history everywhere in Silo, but I do not always want completed titles taking up space in ordinary Home rows. The important part is that this is a profile preference, not a server-wide rule: one profile can hide watched items from Home while another profile keeps the normal layout.
This only changes Home. Watched items and their indicators remain available in libraries, search, collections, sidebar pages, and every other normal browsing surface.
Where the setting is
In the Web app, go to:
Settings → Home & Discovery → Home Screen → Home preferences → Hide watched items
The switch is off by default. Its description is: “Remove watched items from ordinary Home sections. Featured and watch-history sections keep them.”
Saving the preference refreshes Home immediately for the active profile.
What it does
When enabled for a profile:
Most Watched,Profile Activity Feed, andForgotten Favoriteskeep watched content because removing it would break the meaning of those sections.The result is a cleaner Home screen without weakening or hiding Silo’s watched-state system anywhere else.
Implementation
The preference is stored through the canonical settings contract as profile-scoped
home.hide_watched_items.Ordinary Home sections fetch a bounded candidate window at five times their display limit, capped at 200 expanded candidates. Silo resolves the profile’s item state once, removes watched candidates, trims the result back to the configured row size, and only then applies cross-section duplicate handling.
That ordering matters: candidates that are filtered out or fall beyond the visible row cannot suppress content in later sections. The source count is preserved so “View all” continues to behave normally.
The refill window is intentionally bounded because determining whether a series or season is watched also requires episode-state lookups. If every item in that bounded window is watched, a row can still be shorter instead of causing an unbounded scan.
Validation
I tested the first version on my own Silo server. That live test confirmed the profile behavior worked and also exposed the refill issue: removing three watched titles from a 20-item row initially left only 17 visible. I reported that case and guided the follow-up so the row now pulls in replacement candidates.
Passed locally on the upstream-based branch:
go test ./internal/sections ./internal/settingscontract ./internal/settingsresolve -run 'Test(HideWatchedItemsFromHome|PreserveWatchedItemsOnHome|.*HomeHideWatched.*)' -count=1go test ./internal/api/handlers -run 'Test(FilterWatchedHomeSectionItems|HomeSectionsForFetch|HomeWatchedCandidateLimit|WatchedRefillRunsBeforeDiversity|HomePreferenceFiltersOnlyHomeResponses)' -count=1make verify-local-pathsgit diff --check upstream/main...HEADThe same commits passed Go, Web, and Docs GitHub Actions on the fork. The corrected build is deployed there and reports healthy readiness. The full upstream matrix is left to GitHub Actions.
No screenshot is included because the visible change is a single switch in the existing Home Screen settings page.
