A backfill chunk's time-box (BACKFILL_CHUNK_SECONDS=600) was only checked
between POSTS, but download_post downloads ALL of one post's media
synchronously — so a single media-heavy post could run the chunk far past 600s,
all the way to the Celery soft time limit (1350s), where it was killed and
finalized as error (Pocketacer, event #41330: ran the full 22.5 min).
download_post now polls a should_stop() deadline BEFORE each media item and the
engine passes `now - start >= time_budget_seconds`, so a heavy post stops at the
budget and the remaining media (never marked seen) re-fetch next chunk. Bounds
chunk overrun to one media download instead of one whole post.
Also genericized the soft-limit salvage message — it claimed the "gallery-dl
subprocess" failed, which is wrong for a native Patreon walk; it now describes
the time-budget overrun + per-page checkpoint resume in platform-neutral terms.

Two concurrent Patreon walks could trip the server rate limit even with each
source pacing its own requests. The platform-cooldown handled the aftermath of
a 429; this adds the preventive half — a per-platform Redis lock so only one
Patreon walk runs at a time. Different platforms still run concurrently up to
the worker concurrency; only a second walk on the SAME serialized platform
waits.
download_source acquires fc:download_lock:<platform> (non-blocking) before the
run. On contention it re-enqueues itself with a short countdown (the pending
event stays — no new event, no log spam), bounded to ~15 min then runs uncapped
as a safety valve. The lock TTL sits just past the hard kill so a SIGKILL'd
worker auto-releases; a backfill chunk only holds it ~10 min, well under the
30-min DownloadEvent recovery sweep. A broker hiccup degrades to uncapped
(prior behaviour) rather than stalling downloads. SERIALIZED_PLATFORMS={patreon};
gallery-dl platforms are left uncapped (self-pacing subprocesses).

Branch download_service phase 2 by platform: Patreon now routes to the
native PatreonIngester (zero per-file HEADs, native cursor/resume, loud
drift detection) instead of gallery-dl; the other 5 platforms are
unchanged. The ingester returns a DownloadResult-shaped object so phase 1
(DB setup) and phase 3 (import → pHash → thumbs → ML) are untouched.
Three modes wired from config_overrides state:
- tick: skip seen (tier-1 ledger + tier-2 disk), early-out after N
contiguous already-have-it items.
- backfill: full-history time-boxed chunk, cursor checkpoint via
gallery-dl-style "Cursor: <token>" lines in stdout (reuses the #693
lifecycle + parse_last_cursor verbatim).
- recovery: backfill that BYPASSES the tier-1 seen-ledger so
dropped-and-deleted near-dups get re-fetched and re-evaluated under
the current pHash threshold. Rides the #693 state machine via a
_backfill_bypass_seen flag, cleared on completion / stop.
The seen-ledger uses short-lived sync sessions (injected sessionmaker),
never held across the walk (avoids the connection-reaping trap). Campaign
id resolves from override, an id: URL, or a vanity lookup; unresolvable =
loud NOT_FOUND, never a silent empty success.
Tests: new test_patreon_ingester.py (modes, ledger skip/idempotency,
budget→PARTIAL, recovery bypass, tier-2 disk, drift). The patreon-oriented
download_service tests now drive the ingester branch via a stub; the
gallery-dl campaign-retry test is replaced by resolution/caching coverage.

Plan #693. Large-catalog backfill (Anduo) no longer sprints to the timeout
wall and dies as an error each run. Builds on the cursor checkpoint (#689).
- Time-boxed chunks: BACKFILL_TIMEOUT_SECONDS(1170)→BACKFILL_CHUNK_SECONDS(600),
far under the 1350 soft limit. Hitting it = normal chunk boundary (the
TimeoutExpired path already captures partial output + the cursor), not a
near-wall death.
- Run-until-done state machine driven by config_overrides[_backfill_state]
(running/complete/stalled). A running backfill auto-continues in chunks
across ticks until gallery-dl exits cleanly (rc=0 = reached the bottom →
'complete'); a safety-cap (BACKFILL_MAX_CHUNKS=200) + the #689 stall-guard
pause a pathological walk as 'stalled'. Replaces the N-runs counter
(backfill_runs_remaining repurposed as the cap countdown).
- Progress, not error: a chunk that timed out but advanced (cursor moved
and/or files written) is reclassified TIMEOUT→PARTIAL (status 'ok').
- Retry storm tamed: gallery-dl retries 3→2, downloader timeout 120→60s, so
one stuck CDN file fails in ~1-2 min not ~10 (Anduo #40838).
- API: POST /sources/{id}/backfill now takes {action: start|stop}; service
start_backfill/stop_backfill; new enabled sources auto-arm run-until-done;
source dict exposes backfill_state + backfill_chunks.
Frontend (Start/Stop control + state badge) lands in the next push.

Backfill downloads stranded with empty logs + a generic "stranded by
recovery sweep" error. Root cause: the backfill gallery-dl subprocess
timeout (1170s) exceeded download_source's Celery soft_time_limit (900s),
so SoftTimeLimitExceeded preempted subprocess.TimeoutExpired. The
TimeoutExpired path (which captures partial stdout/stderr and finalizes
the event) never ran, the event was left 'running', and phase 3 never
decremented backfill_runs_remaining — so the source re-ran and
re-stranded every tick (Anduo #39912).
Two layers:
1. Raise download_source limits (soft 900→1350, hard 1200→1500) so both
subprocess budgets (870 tick / 1170 backfill) sit below the soft
limit with phase-3 persist headroom. Promote to module constants and
guard the invariant with a test.
2. Catch SoftTimeLimitExceeded in download_source and finalize the
in-flight event with a real reason, mirror phase-3 source-health, and
decrement backfill so a chronically-slow source self-heals to tick
mode. The existing celery_signals handler only covered TaskRun, not
DownloadEvent — that was the gap.
Updates stale 900/1200 references in gallery_dl.py + maintenance.py.

The `select(ImportSettings).where(id == 1)).scalar_one()` singleton load was
repeated 15× across services, API, and 5 task modules. Added async load() +
sync load_sync() classmethods on the model and migrated all 15 full-row sites
(callers already imported ImportSettings, so no new imports; dropped download's
now-orphaned select import). Left maintenance.py's deliberate column-select
(import_scan_path only) as-is.
Rest of the service layer was already adequately DRY — the Record/to_dict
pattern is only 2 instances and the savepoint find-or-create recovery is
correctly per-entity, so neither was forced into a shared abstraction.

download/migration/scan each defined an identical _async_session_factory()
(fresh per-invocation async engine — async connections are event-loop-bound
so each asyncio.run() task needs its own engine, unlike the process-wide
_sync_engine). Moved it to tasks/_async_session.py; the 3 files import it
and drop their now-orphaned sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio / get_config imports
(migration keeps AsyncSession for a type hint). Call-site try/finally
dispose left as-is to avoid re-indenting the critical task bodies.
