Active Context

Current Focus

Completed investigation of cyclic dependencies in the videoarchiver module, particularly in the processor directory.

Active Files

• videoarchiver/processor/core.py
• videoarchiver/processor/message_handler.py
• videoarchiver/processor/queue_handler.py
• videoarchiver/processor/cleanup_manager.py

Recent Changes

Analysis completed:

• Identified and documented dependency patterns
• Verified TYPE_CHECKING usage
• Confirmed effective circular dependency management

Next Steps

1. ✓ Analyzed imports in processor directory
2. ✓ Mapped dependencies between components
3. ✓ Identified circular import patterns
4. ✓ Documented findings and recommendations

Conclusion

The codebase effectively manages potential circular dependencies through:

1. Strategic use of TYPE_CHECKING
2. Late initialization
3. Forward references
4. Clear component boundaries

No immediate refactoring needed as current implementation follows best practices.
