-### Task 10: Fix `Start Queue` API Test
-**Test Result:** FAIL — Expected status: 200, got 400 (`No pending downloads in queue`)
-**File:** `tests/robot/api/download.robot`
-**Instructions:**
-The test calls POST `/api/queue/start` without first adding items to the queue. The endpoint returns 400 because the queue is empty. Update the test to first add episodes to the queue (using `Add To Queue`) before calling `Start Queue`. Alternatively, modify the endpoint in `src/server/api/download.py` to return 200 with a message when the queue is empty instead of 400. The test expectation should be aligned with the API behavior.
