fix(bot): rerank search results toward exact artist/title match - #2045
Conversation
Spotify's raw search endpoint returns no relevance ranking, so a bare query like "Prince" could surface a same-genre act (e.g. Prince Royce) as tracks[0] ahead of the artist actually named. Adds an afterSearch reranker on every resolution arm (primary + both fallbacks, plus the play-at-top path) that promotes a track whose title or author exactly matches the query, leaving descriptive queries untouched.

Graphify review — findings
Adds a preferExactMatch reranker in resolveProvider.ts that promotes a search result whose title or author exactly matches the query, and wires it in as the afterSearch hook across every play arm in both resolveQueryWithFallbacks and executePlayAtTop. Skips playlists and single/no-match results so descriptive queries stay untouched. Covers the new behavior with preferExactMatch unit tests and an assertion that afterSearch flows through each fallback arm.

Adds a preferExactMatch reranker in resolveProvider.ts that promotes a track whose title or author exactly matches the query, and wires it as the afterSearch hook across every play arm in both resolveQueryWithFallbacks and executePlayAtTop. This prevents short/ambiguous queries (e.g. "Prince") from surfacing a same-genre act ahead of the named artist, and leaves playlists, single-track, and descriptive-query results untouched. Includes unit tests covering promotion, no-op cases, and playlist skipping.

Adds a preferExactMatch reranker in resolveProvider.ts that promotes a track whose title or author exactly matches the query, guarding against extractors (notably Spotify search) surfacing a same-genre act ahead of the named artist.

Problem
A bare query like
/play Princeplays Prince Royce instead of Prince. Root cause: the Spotify extractor's search endpoint returns Spotify's own raw ranking with no relevance re-scoring, andplayer.play()always takestracks[0]from whateverSearchResultit gets. Same gap existed on the YouTube/SoundCloud fallback arms and on the/playtopcommand's independent resolution path.Fix
Adds
preferExactMatch(query)inresolveProvider.ts: aSearchOptions.afterSearchreranker (discord-player's built-in hook, run on theSearchResultright beforetracks[0]is picked) that promotes a candidate whose title or author exactly matches the query. Wired into every resolution arm inresolveQueryWithFallbacksand intoexecutePlayAtTop.Conservative by design:
player.play()call shape as before,afterSearchis a native discord-player option.Test plan
