Subject: [PATCH] docs: verify and document clean dependency structure

- Verify no cyclic dependencies in processor components
- Document dependency management strategies in systemPatterns.md
- Update activeContext.md with current verification status
- Confirm proper use of TYPE_CHECKING and late initialization

 ## Recent Analysis (2024)
 
 1. Dependency Structure:
    - ✅ No cyclic dependencies found
-   - ✅ processor → utils (one-way dependency)
-   - ✅ shared module properly isolated
-   - ✅ TYPE_CHECKING used correctly
+   - ✅ TYPE_CHECKING used correctly in VideoProcessor
+   - ✅ Clean handler initialization pattern
+   - ✅ Proper dependency direction maintained
 
 2. Key Components:
-   - shared/progress.py handling progress tracking
-   - utils package providing core utilities
-   - processor package consuming utils functionality
+   - VideoProcessor using late initialization
+   - MessageHandler with clean imports
+   - QueueHandler with proper separation

 ## Cyclic Dependencies Analysis
 
-### Current Dependency Chain
+### Current Dependency Chain (Verified 2024)
 
 1. VideoProcessor (core.py)
-   - Imports MessageHandler, QueueHandler, CleanupManager under TYPE_CHECKING
-   - Creates instances of these handlers in __init__
+   - Uses TYPE_CHECKING for handler imports
+   - Late initialization of handlers
+   - Clean dependency structure with no cycles
 
 2. MessageHandler (message_handler.py)
-   - Imports ConfigManager, URLExtractor
-   - No circular imports detected
+   - Imports from config, queue, and utils
+   - No circular dependencies detected
+   - Clean dependency structure
 
 3. QueueHandler (queue_handler.py)
-   - Imports utils, database, config_manager
-   - No circular imports detected

 ### Mitigation Strategies Used
 
 1. TYPE_CHECKING conditional imports

+   - Used effectively in core.py
    - Prevents runtime circular imports
    - Maintains type safety during development
