Research direction
Read internal/pkg/playlists/guide.go at lines 443-445 and inspect the surrounding playlist descriptor handling. Confirm whether the reported range-loop reference causes incorrect pointers, then run the repository's Go tests or relevant checks. Done means the analyzer finding is addressed and playlist behavior remains correct.
