Operator-flagged: the recovered defective files live DEEP in their artists'
back-catalogues — the normal download cadence (by design, via the seen-gates)
will never re-walk them, so recovery's source re-check alone can't bring them
back. The durable per-post handle is the ExternalLink row, which survives the
image delete:
- services/external_links.refetch_links_for_post: reset settled links to
pending (fresh attempt budget, in-flight left alone) + dispatch their
fetches; sha-dedupe at import discards payload files that still exist, so
only the missing file lands.
- recover_defective_image now captures the image's post ids BEFORE the delete
cascades provenance away and resets those posts' links — future recoveries
are surgical automatically (response gains links_reset; source re-check
stays for gallery-dl-native files within walk reach).
- POST /api/admin/posts/refetch-external {external_post_id, source_id?} — the
manual tool for the three files recovered before this fix existed.

Operator-flagged on the deployed .5 build: the autoscaler grew the pool 1→8
against an EMPTY queue (an empty buffer read as 'GPU starving' regardless of
WHY), and every downloader kept polling lease every 10s all night.
- New idle signal straight from the lease results: an empty lease sets _idle,
any jobs clear it. The occupancy-low branch now distinguishes three cases:
queue empty → shed to ONE polling downloader; pinned at the bandwidth cap →
shed toward 3; cap headroom + work flowing → grow.
- Idle lease polls back off exponentially per downloader to
IDLE_POLL_MAX_SECONDS (15 min) and reset the moment work appears — so an
idle night costs one HTTP call per 15 min, and new work is noticed within
at most ~15 min (operator-accepted trade-off).
- UI hint: 'idle — queue empty, lease poll backed off'; /status gains idle.
Agent build 2026-07-02.6.

The Subscriptions Settings tab's bare text-h6 headers adopt the same
uppercase accent section-title + hint convention Maintenance/Cleanup use, with
a one-line hint per section (extension / credentials / downloader / external
file-hosts / schedule defaults). Every settings-ish surface now reads
identically.

Daily-use reorder of the Subscriptions tab: needs-attention strip first
(FailingSourcesCard moves up from below the Downloads fold — a broken
subscription was invisible unless you went looking), then a new Recent
arrivals card (real downloads only, no-change scans filtered out, artist
links), then the source list. Both cards render nothing when there's nothing
to say.
Retry logic moves into the downloads store (retrySource / retryAllFailing) so
the needs-attention card and the Downloads maintenance menu share one
implementation — single-retry forces past cooldown, bulk keeps cooldown
enforcement, same tally shape. The card's Logs button deep-links into the
Downloads tab pre-filtered (?source_id now watched, not just read on mount).

The Activity tab only knew Celery — the GPU agent (the majority of processing)
and the download pipeline were invisible there. Two new self-polling panels:
- GpuActivityPanel: queue depths + triage verdicts (defects / file-ok /
unprobed, top reason buckets) with a jump to Maintenance -> Failed
processing. The triage detail refetches only when the error count moves.
- DownloadsActivityPanel: 24h stat chips + failing-source names with a jump
into Subscriptions.
Both panels join the Activity tab under Queues+workers AND double as the
Overview health strip (side-by-side grid under the Celery summary) — one
component set, so Overview answers 'is everything healthy?' across all
systems. SystemStatsCards reviewed: content still accurate, left as-is.

Settings IA per the approved A3 design (the old layout was the two-app merge
fossilized):
- Import tab retired: ImportTriggerPanel + ImportTaskList deleted (manual
/import scans stay API-level; imports arrive via downloads/extension, heal
via the Layer-2 auto-refetch sweep, and show in Activity). ImportFiltersForm
moves to Maintenance → 'Ingestion & filters' and loads its own settings; the
import store shrinks to settings-only (no remaining consumers of the
scan/task-list machinery). Overview's pending banner now points at Activity.
- Maintenance regrouped: Ingestion & filters / GPU agent & embeddings
(GpuAgent, Failed processing, CPU embedding backfill) / Tagging (sliders,
Heads, Aliases) / Library health (MissingFiles, Thumbnails, DB, Archive
re-extract demoted last) / Storage.
- One extension home: BrowserExtensionCard moves from Settings → Overview to
Subscriptions → Settings, above the API key bar it authenticates.
- Single-color import filter WIRED: skip_single_color/threshold existed since
FC-2 but nothing read them (the audit module's docstring said as much) —
now enforced on both import paths via the audit's canonical predicate
(tolerance 30, matching the Cleanup card default; animated images exempt
like the transparency check). Default stays off; test added.
- Dead weight: PlaceholderView (zero refs) and the permanently-disabled
'Export failed logs (CSV — v2)' menu stub deleted; stale docs fixed
(celery queue docstring, threshold comment citing retired tasks, ml
package docstring, HeadsCard 'replaces Camie' blurb).

The ml-worker's ONLY processing role is now the CPU whole-image embed fallback
(tag_and_embed renamed embed_image — Camie tagging was retired #1189 and the
name kept implying otherwise; videos were already handled agent-style: frame
sampling + mean-pool). Detection/cropping/CCIP stay GPU-agent-only, and their
completion is judged per-pipeline: ccip by gpu_job rows, siglip by concept
regions at the current model version — never by image_record.siglip_embedding.
A CPU embed therefore can NEVER close crop work for the agent (regression test
pins this; only the whole-image 'embed' job, the same artifact, is satisfied).
Making removal actually safe (operator will drop the container):
- GPU-queue coordination (enqueue_gpu_backfill, recover_orphaned_gpu_jobs,
reprocess_gpu_jobs) moved verbatim to tasks/gpu_queue.py on the maintenance
quick lane — it lived on the 'ml' queue only by module colocation, which made
the ml-worker a hard dependency of the whole agent pipeline.
- New ml_settings.cpu_embed_enabled (migration 0074, default ON so agent-less
installs keep working): OFF stops the four import hooks queueing embed work
nothing will consume and no-ops the manual backfill; switch lives on the
renamed 'CPU embedding backfill' card.
- NB heads training / auto-apply still run on the ml image (sklearn) — a stack
that removes the container gives those up too.
Deploy note: in-flight messages under the old task names are dropped by the
new workers; the 60s orphan sweep + hourly backfill re-fire under the new
names immediately.

Autoscaler (agent 2026-07-02.5): the buffer-occupancy signal alone would peg
downloaders at DL_MAX while the bandwidth CAP — not concurrency — is the real
constraint (8 streams sharing 8 MB/s move no more data than 4). Growth is now
gated on the pipe having headroom (net < 85% of cap) and a pipe pinned at the
cap (>= 95%) sheds streams down to 3; dead band prevents flapping. The UI hint
says 'holding at the bandwidth cap' and /status reports bw_capped, so the
behavior is legible without tests that need the ML stack.
Reset content tagging: stays a FULL-instance reset (operator's call), but now
lives in a fenced 'Danger zone' section on Cleanup and the apply is gated by a
preview-derived confirm token (mirrors the Tier-C bulk-delete pattern — stale
counts are rejected server-side). Copy no longer claims suggestions repopulate:
it says plainly the heads' training examples are deleted and re-tagging starts
fresh. Moved out of TagMaintenanceCard into DangerZoneCard.

The head-vs-centroid eval (#1130) existed to prove the 'frozen embedding +
trained head' spine; the operator accepted the tagging system and dropped the
harness. Removed per rule 22: TagEvalCard + store, /api/tag_eval blueprint,
tag_eval_run ml task, recover-stalled-tag-eval-runs sweep + beat entry,
TagEvalRun model + table (migration 0073), and its tests.
The eval's data loaders + metric helpers were NOT eval-specific — the nightly
heads trainer runs on them — so they moved verbatim to
services/ml/training_data.py (heads.py import updated; behavior unchanged).

An errored GPU job's stored reason is a suspicion; the file probe is the
verdict. A 15-min beat sweep (triage_gpu_errors) runs verify_integrity's own
probe (sha256 + decode) on each errored image ONCE and writes both verdicts:
ImageRecord.integrity_status and the new GpuJob.triage_status ('defect' |
'file_ok', migration 0072). Every classification logs at WARNING so it
surfaces in Logs/System Activity.
- 'defect' rows are excluded from /retry_errors (re-running a known-bad file
burns agent time re-minting the tombstone); response now reports
defects_kept and the GpuAgentCard toast says so.
- GET /api/gpu/errors: triage view — reason buckets (classify_reason),
probe verdicts, per-job detail. POST /errors/triage runs the sweep now.
- POST /api/gpu/errors/<id>/recover: reuses the Layer-2 refetch pattern —
delete the defective copy + record (full cascade takes the tombstones too)
and re-poll its subscription Source so a fresh copy re-imports and re-enters
the pipeline; 'no_source' when nothing pollable resolves.
- New 'Failed processing' card (GpuTriageCard) in Maintenance: verdict counts,
reason summary, probe-now, defect list with thumbnails + per-image Recover.

One shared TokenBucket (default 8 MB/s; BANDWIDTH_LIMIT_MB_S, 0 = unlimited;
live MB/s dial + net readout in the control UI) is charged by every still
download (streamed chunk reads) and every ffmpeg video stream (metered from
outside via /proc/<pid>/io and SIGSTOP/SIGCONTed into budget).
Why: D1 re-measurement 2026-07-02 — the idle link moves ~38 MB/s, but 8
unthrottled downloaders bufferbloated it to ~1-1.5 MB/s PER STREAM (operator's
browser included). Capping the aggregate keeps the desktop usable and still
beats the collapsed sweep throughput it replaces. Agent build 2026-07-02.4.

The hourly ccip backfill's skip-list lacked 'error' (and the daily
siglip/embed variants re-gated failures on their missing results), so every
permanently-bad file got a fresh doomed job each run — ~24 duplicate error
rows/day per file, the perpetual 'unprocessable' flood. An errored job is now
a TOMBSTONE: no backfill re-enqueues it; retry is deliberate-only via
/retry_errors (an errored back-catalogue needs one button press after a
model swap).
One shared set of dedupe DELETEs (services/ml/gpu_jobs.error_dedupe_statements)
runs before every backfill and inside /retry_errors: error rows made moot by a
later pending/leased/done row go first, then older duplicates (newest reason
survives) — so the error count reads as distinct failing files and a retry
can't fan one file out into duplicate pending jobs. /retry_errors now returns
{requeued, pruned} and the toast shows both.
Poison-loop guards (release and lease-expiry burn no attempts, so a job that
stalls its transfer or crashes the agent every time cycled forever —
operator-observed jobs 99044/125288/131594/143131):
- agent: 3 in-session transient bounces (fetch or submit) → fail with the real
reason instead of another release; strikes never count while stopping, and
clear on submit success. Agent build 2026-07-02.3.
- server: the 60s orphan sweep (statements shared between the beat task and
GpuJobService so they can't drift) converts expired leases with >=5 lease
grants and pending jobs with >=10 to 'error', preserving the last stored
failure reason. Backstops old agent builds.
Tests: tombstone rule across all three backfill variants, moot-row pruning,
poison conversions, and the extended /retry_errors dedupe contract.

GpuAgentCard was hardcoded :open=true, HeadsCard opened whenever any head
existed, TagEvalCard whenever a persisted run existed — so a fresh Settings
load greeted the operator with several tiles already expanded. All three now
force-open only while their task is actually running (the #877 resurface
behavior on the busy-driven tiles is untouched).
MaintenanceTile additionally persists MANUAL expand/collapse per tile in
localStorage, so the section reloads the way the operator left it; a forced
open while a task runs stays transient and is never saved as a preference.

sample_frames_from_url now returns (frames, reason) — reason carries the
SPECIFIC cause on failure (ffmpeg's stderr tail, e.g. "moov atom not found",
or the timeout) instead of only logging it agent-side. The worker folds it
into the failure it reports, so curator's GpuJob.error reads e.g.
no frames sampled from video — ffmpeg exit 183: moov atom not found ...
instead of the bare "(unprocessable)". The errored-jobs list becomes
self-describing: after a retry sweep, surviving errors name their real
defect without needing the agent log. Return-value plumbing (not shared
state) so concurrent downloaders stay isolated. Agent VERSION → 2026-07-02.2.

After an agent-side fix (e.g. the short-video sampler), the errored jobs
(~2.8k) have exhausted their 3 attempts and stay parked: backfill skips
images that already have a job, and /reprocess is the nuclear option (it
resets the 179k DONE jobs too). There was no way to re-run just the errors.
POST /api/gpu/retry_errors resets every status='error' job (all task types)
to pending with attempts=0 and the stored error cleared — a small inline
UPDATE that returns {requeued: n} so the UI toast can show the count.
UI: a "Retry errored jobs" button on the GPU-agent card, right under the
queue tiles; disabled when errored==0. With the agent now logging ffmpeg's
stderr on failure, retrying also reveals which errors were real vs victims
of the fps-filter bug.
Test: retry_errors requeues the errored job (fresh attempts, error cleared)
and leaves done work untouched; asserts via column selects (Core-DML
gotcha), not ORM refresh.

Root cause of the "no frames sampled from video (unprocessable)" flood
(operator-flagged 2026-07-02, whole 62k-70k image block + others): the
sampler used `-vf fps=1/4`, and ffmpeg's fps filter emits round(duration/4)
frames — which is ZERO for any clip shorter than ~2s. Short animation loops
(0.5s, 1.75s — verified against two originals from different artists) are
complete, valid h264 videos; ffmpeg decoded them fine, emitted no frames,
exited 0, and the agent failed the job as unprocessable. Long videos worked,
so only the short-clip class flooded.
Fix: sample with select ("first frame always, then one per interval of
timestamp") + -fps_mode vfr, and scale=out_range=full so limited-range
yuv420p sources don't trip the mjpeg encoder's full-range strictness
(secondary failure observed on a 4440x2760 clip). Verified locally against
both failing originals (frames extracted, PIL-clean) and a synthetic 15s
video (4 frames at t=0/4/8/12 — long-video behavior unchanged).
Observability (why this hid for weeks): ffmpeg's stderr was discarded, so
every failure logged only "no frames sampled". stderr now goes to a temp
file and its tail is logged on any produced-no-frames/timeout failure — the
log names the actual ffmpeg reason from now on. Also: frames written before
a mid-stream ffmpeg error are now kept (partial > nothing).
VERSION → 2026-07-02.1.

THE root cause of "the Status section doesn't update" (chased across several
rounds; the backend was always healthy). `#capn` (the max-concurrency number)
was nested inside `#conchint`:
<div id=conchint>… · max <b id=capn>8</b></div>
and applyStatus() ran, every call: `capn.textContent=CAP` AND
`conchint.textContent = '…max '+CAP`. Setting conchint.textContent replaces
ALL of conchint's children — destroying the <b id=capn> node. So:
call 1: capn exists → tiles update → conchint.textContent DELETES capn
call 2+: `capn.textContent` → "capn is not defined" (ReferenceError) →
applyStatus throws on its FIRST line → aborts before any tile →
frozen.
This is exactly the observed "ticks a couple times then freezes", and why
/gpu + /logs (which never touch capn) kept updating fine.
The capn write was redundant anyway — conchint.textContent already renders
the max. Remove the nested <b id=capn> element and the capn.textContent line;
the hint still shows "· max N". VERSION → .10.

Two follow-ups from live debugging of "work/min never populates" and
"stopped never reached".
1) jobs/min + downloads/min are now computed in the BACKEND on a fixed
cadence (_rate_loop, EWMA) and reported ready-to-show. The rates were
derived client-side from poll deltas with a dt<30s guard — but a
backgrounded/unfocused browser tab throttles its timers to ~1/min, so
every delta exceeded 30s and the guard blanked the rates forever. A
server-side rate is independent of how often the tab polls. Frontend just
displays s.jobs_per_min / s.downloads_per_min. VERSION → .9.
2) ffmpeg video sampling is now killable on Stop. A downloader stuck in a
slow/reconnecting decode (observed: 47s, 230s for one video) couldn't see
the stop signal until ffmpeg returned, so Stop detached still-running
threads and work kept flowing long after — "stopped" that wasn't really
stopped. sample_frames_from_url now runs ffmpeg via Popen and polls a
`should_stop` callback every 0.5s, terminating (then killing) the process
at once on Stop or the per-video timeout. A stop-killed job is handed back
(transient), not failed.

The Status pill hung on "stopping" forever (operator-flagged 2026-07-01).
Root cause: the backend had no lifecycle state — status() only returned
running/stopped — so the UI FABRICATED "stopping" in JS as `!running &&
active>0`. That pill only cleared when the backend's `active` counter hit 0,
but stop() (a) blocked the HTTP handler on lease-release calls to curator and
(b) left `active>0` whenever a consumer wedged mid-submit/release to an
overloaded curator → "stopping" that never resolved.
Give the backend a real, truthful state it drives itself:
stopped → starting → running → stopping → stopped
- start(): → starting; a downloader flips it to running on its FIRST
successful lease (so "running" means curator is actually answering, not
just "Start was clicked"). If curator's down it honestly stays "starting".
- stop(): → stopping; returns immediately (no handler block). A background
monitor waits for the worker threads to actually exit, releases leases,
then → stopped — bounded by STOPPING_TIMEOUT (20s) so a wedged submit can
NEVER hold the UI in "stopping" again. In-flight work is handed back safely.
- Buttons follow the real state (Start only from stopped; both disabled
through the transition), so you can't fight a transition.
- Log every Start/Stop button press (routes) and every transition (worker),
so the Logs panel shows exactly what each button did.
Frontend now trusts s.state (drops the active>0 hack); VERSION → .8.

The buffer / on-GPU / downloader counts flip many times a second, so a 3s
status poll only ever samples noise — the tiles looked frozen (same value
twice) or random (wildly different), reading as "the Status section doesn't
update" when the backend was in fact live (operator-flagged 2026-07-01).
Replace the three instantaneous gauge tiles with two derived RATE tiles:
- jobs / min — GPU throughput, from the monotonic `processed` counter
- downloads / min — fetch throughput, from a new monotonic `downloaded`
counter (bumped when a job is decoded into the buffer)
Together they also show pipeline balance (dl/min > j/min ⇒ GPU-bound; the
reverse ⇒ GPU starved). Both are EWMA-smoothed over the poll deltas, clamped
at 0 (agent restart resets the counters), and skip a backgrounded-tab gap.
The still-useful instantaneous state is demoted, not lost: buffer stays as
the occupancy bar; downloaders/consumers/on-GPU move to the sub-line. `waited
out` (transient) gets promoted to a tile.
backend: worker.status() gains `downloaded`; `_bump(downloaded=)`.
frontend: retiled Status + rate math in applyStatus; VERSION → .7.

The failing "poison" jobs were 800MB+ 4K VR videos: the agent pulled the ENTIRE
file into memory (r.content) just to sample a few frames, which buffered ~1GB in
RAM and — on any slow/contended media store — got cut off mid-download
(ChunkedEncodingError), failed, and re-leased forever. Measured the media read at
~4–6 MB/s (raw off the share, curator out of the path), so no serving-layer tweak
helps; the file simply shouldn't be fully downloaded.
Environment-agnostic fix (works for any deployment, completes even when slow):
- media.sample_frames_from_url(): point ffmpeg straight at curator's /images URL.
It Range-reads only the video index + up to max_frames of content — never the
whole file — and reconnect flags resume a dropped transfer instead of failing.
Generous, env-tunable timeout (FFMPEG_TIMEOUT, default 1200s) = completion over
speed. Removes the bytes-based sample_frames (dead once videos stream).
- worker._download_decode: videos now stream (no fetch_image, no RAM blowup);
stills still download+decode. On an ffmpeg miss, probe curator liveness
(client.is_reachable) → fail the job if curator is up (unprocessable file, stops
the infinite re-lease) vs release if curator is down (transient, survives a
redeploy). Auth header passed so it works whether or not /images is gated.

"curator unreachable" was printed for every transient error, hiding whether a
single file's transfer stalled (ReadTimeout — curator is up, that stream is slow)
or curator itself is down (ConnectTimeout/ConnectionError) or errored (HTTP 5xx).
Those need completely different fixes, and we've been diagnosing the download
slowness blind.
Add _transient_reason(exc) → a specific label (HTTP <code>, else the exception
class: ReadTimeout / ConnectTimeout / ConnectionError / …) and use it in both
transient paths:
- downloader: "fetch failed job <id> (image <id>, ReadTimeout) — released, backing off"
- consumer: "submit failed job <id> (<reason>) — released, re-lease later"
Now the logs say which failure it actually is (and which image), so we can tell a
slow/stalled transfer apart from an unreachable curator. Build marker 2026-07-01.5.

The image library is on a CIFS/SMB share (mounted rsize=4 MiB, actimeo=1), and
Quart's FileBody streams in 8 KiB chunks — so serving one large original was
~19k network round-trips to the storage server, i.e. 30–58s per download
(operator-flagged). That's what starved the GPU agent (constant "curator
unreachable" backoff) AND slowed the browser: every byte is read off CIFS and
streamed through the Python app (no reverse-proxy sendfile), and only 2 hypercorn
workers meant the agent + the browser's thumbnail grid queued behind each other.
In-container fix, no new service:
- Raise FileBody.buffer_size 8 KiB → 4 MiB in create_app, matching the mount's
read size: one round-trip per read, ~500× fewer. buffer_size is the MAX read so
small thumbnails still read in one gulp, and Range/mime/ETag/conditional
handling lives on Response — all preserved. Guarded so a Quart-internal change
can't break boot.
- HYPERCORN_WORKERS default 2 → 4 so concurrent /images requests stop queuing.
Expected: large-file transfers drop from ~40s toward link speed (a few seconds)
for the agent and the browser. See issue #1223.

The gallery's newest/oldest sort keys off image_record.effective_date =
COALESCE(primary post's post_date, created_at). The primary post is often the
repost/download the file came from, so the grid led with download dates rather
than when content was first posted (operator-flagged).
Add a second materialized sort key, earliest_post_date = MIN(post_date) across
ALL of an image's provenance posts (every post it appears in), else created_at —
the original publish date. Mirrors the effective_date pattern so the sort stays a
forward index scan.
- alembic 0071: add earliest_post_date + index (DESC, id DESC); backfill
created_at baseline then MIN over image_provenance ⋈ post.
- importer: recompute earliest_post_date whenever a dated post is linked (MIN over
the image's provenance, which now includes the just-added row).
- gallery_service: new sorts posted_new / posted_old key off earliest_post_date;
cursor + year/month grouping follow the active column transparently.
- api: accept posted_new|posted_old; DEFAULT is now posted_new so the grid leads
with original publish date. newest/oldest (effective_date) still available.
- frontend: sort dropdown gains "Newest/Oldest post date" (default Newest post
date); existing effective-date sorts relabelled "Newest/Oldest added".

Operator hit an outage after the machine slept overnight: the agent showed
"curator unreachable" in a loop while curator's API (lease) was actually fine and
the browser could still load images — just slowly. Root cause is a feedback loop
in the new pipeline: every download streams a full original through curator's
single Python file-serving path, and the autoscaler grows DOWNLOADERS whenever the
buffer is empty. When downloads are merely SLOW/failing, the buffer is empty for
that reason — so the agent piled on more concurrent large-file GETs, saturating
curator's web workers + NFS, which slowed curator (and its browser) further and
produced more failures → more downloaders. Classic congestion collapse.
- Failure-aware autoscaling: if transient download failures rose since the last
decision, SHRINK the downloader pool toward the floor instead of growing — the
empty buffer is caused by failures, not the GPU starving. It ramps back up only
once downloads succeed again.
- DL_MAX 24 → 8: 24 concurrent large-file downloads through one Python serving
path is too many; 8 keeps a fast GPU fed without stampeding curator.
- fetch_image timeout 180 → (10, 60): the read timeout is between-bytes, so a
large-but-flowing download still completes, but a stuck/dead connection fails in
60s instead of hanging a downloader for 3 min and piling up stuck requests.

Operator wants the Explore "related" rail to span more — the #1188 diversifier
was tuned conservatively. Push all three knobs so it reaches further across
clusters instead of clumping near the anchor:
- MMR lam 0.55 → 0.40 — weight the diversity penalty harder (the main dial).
- candidate pool min(200, max(limit*5, 60)) → min(400, max(limit*8, 100)) — a
wider nearest-cosine pool so MMR has genuinely distinct neighbourhoods to pick
from, not just the near-dupes.
- pHash dup_threshold 6 → 8 — collapse more near-duplicate reposts/clones,
freeing rail slots for distinct picks.
Still deterministic (same set per image, just more spread) and relevance-anchored
via the lam*sim-to-anchor term. Backend-only; no migration.

Near-static videos are the dominant GPU load: sampled into up to 64 frames, each
re-runs the whole detect→CCIP→SigLIP chain on ~identical content. Add a CPU
perceptual-hash frame dedup upstream of the GPU so the redundant frames are never
processed at all (not just their embeds).
- media.dedupe_frames() + _dhash(): 8×8 difference-hash (64-bit) per frame; greedy
keep — a frame survives only if its hash differs from every kept frame by
>= min_distance bits (Hamming). A static run collapses to one frame; genuinely
distinct scenes all survive. Order + frame_time preserved.
- Called in worker._download_decode right after sample_frames, so it runs in the
decode stage on the downloader thread (CPU) — the GPU consumers only ever see
deduped frames, and buffered video items shrink (less RAM too).
- Env-tunable FRAME_DEDUPE_DISTANCE (default 8; higher keeps more frames for brief
localized changes an 8×8 hash can miss; 0 disables). Logs `video frames N→M`
when it drops any, so video load reduction is visible.
Complements the spatial per-frame crop dedup (2026-07-01.2); this is the temporal
axis. Build marker 2026-07-01.3.

Figure boxes are already NMS-merged (iou 0.6) and each YOLO detector self-NMSes,
but the combined per-frame crop pile (figure→concept ∪ anatomy component→concept
∪ panel) was embedded with no cross-proposer dedup — so genuine near-duplicates
slipped through (a figure box ≈ an anatomy component on a solo bust; overlapping
booru head classes on one head), embedding the same region twice and burning a
slot against max_regions.
Add detectors.dedupe_crops(): a greedy, high-IoU (default 0.85), kind-aware pass
over the pending (crop, template) list right before embed_batch — drop boxes that
overlap ≥ iou within the same kind, keep the highest score. The high threshold is
deliberate: it collapses only true near-identical boxes while preserving
intentional nested crops across scopes (a whole figure vs a small head component
sit well below it) and distinct kinds (concept vs panel). Env-tunable DEDUPE_IOU
(≥1.0 disables). Runs on CPU before the GPU work, so it cuts both embed cost and
region count. Temporal (cross-frame) dedup deferred. Build marker 2026-07-01.2.

The agent workload is download-bound (download 400–5462ms vs GPU ~300–600ms),
so the old N-slot serial chain (each slot: lease→download→decode→GPU→submit)
left the fast GPU idle during every download. Rearchitect worker.py into a
producer/consumer pipeline:
downloader pool (autoscaled by BUFFER OCCUPANCY) → bounded queue → 1–2 GPU
consumers (detect+embed→submit)
- Downloaders are I/O-bound → many overlap; the autoscaler now tunes DOWNLOADER
count by buffer fill (empty = GPU starving → add; full = outpacing GPU → add a
2nd consumer if it has util/VRAM headroom and lifts throughput, else trim).
- Bounded buffer (12) = backpressure: a full buffer blocks downloaders, capping
RAM + lease look-ahead. VRAM pressure sheds a consumer immediately.
- Heartbeat thread keeps every held lease alive (buffered jobs wait on the GPU;
curator's 180s TTL would otherwise reclaim them mid-buffer).
- Preserves all resilience: lease exp-backoff, submit-path retry (#169),
release-on-stop, region caps + video early-exit (#171). Stop drains BOTH pools
and releases every held lease at once (single held-set as source of truth).
- Consumers SHARE one embedder + proposers instance (a 2nd consumer adds
concurrent inference, not N× VRAM — bounds the VRAM creep seen with N slots).
- UI reworked for the pipeline: tiles show downloaders · buffer · on-GPU ·
processed · errors, a buffer-occupancy meter, and a consumers/waited-out line;
the dial now tunes downloaders. Build marker 2026-07-01.1.
Also fix the operator-flagged detector warning: yolo11n + the comic-panel model
threw "'Conv' object has no attribute 'bn'" on every image (ultralytics' load-
time Conv+BN fusion on a version-mismatched graph), silently disabling 2 of 3
crop proposers and spamming the log per image. Disable that fusion (unfused
inference is correct, marginally slower) and permanently self-disable a proposer
on the first inference failure instead of re-throwing forever.

Image 81602 turned out to be a 156 MB mp4, not a huge still: the agent samples
up to 64 frames × ~32 regions/frame → ~2000 regions (the 413) and 64 frames of
detect+CCIP+embed (the 38s). The MAX_REGIONS backstop (#171) only truncated the
SUBMIT — the GPU work was already spent. Break out of the frame loop once
accumulated regions reach max_regions, so a long video costs ~a few frames of
GPU (~2-3s), not all 64 (~38s). The whole-image 'embed' task is unaffected (it
mean-pools all frames and returns before this loop).

Three safety/robustness fixes from the operator's run logs:
- Cap figures per frame (MAX_FIGURES, default 8) like components/panels already
are. Uncapped, a huge/busy image yielded hundreds of figure boxes → hundreds
of per-figure CCIP calls + crops → a 38s job AND a submit too big to accept
(image 81602 looped on 413). This is the acute fix.
- Global per-JOB backstop (MAX_REGIONS, default 128): if total regions still
exceed the cap (long video), keep the highest-scoring and log the drop, so a
submit body can never blow past curator's limit.
- Stale "active" meter: stop() now resets _active to 0 (no slots remain, so the
meter must read 0 at once), and _bump clamps at 0 so a slot finishing after the
reset can't drive it negative.

Trusted local library, not an upload surface, so a legitimately large image
(90–95M px, operator-flagged) must load. PIL only WARNS at the 89M-px default but
RAISES DecompressionBombError at ~179M px, which would fail those jobs. Set
Image.MAX_IMAGE_PIXELS = None. (The agent works off individual extracted files —
curator's archive_extractor unpacks zip/cbz/rar/7z at import — so this is about
big single images, not archives.)

Bump the GPU-agent base image from 12.4.1-cudnn-runtime-ubuntu22.04 (Python 3.10,
CUDA 12.4, early-2024) to 12.9.2-cudnn-runtime-ubuntu24.04:
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS → Python 3.12 — one modern runtime, no more 3.10.
- CUDA 12.9 + cuDNN 9 — current within the CUDA-12 / cuDNN-9 line that the
default onnxruntime-gpu wheel AND torch cu124 are built against. NOT CUDA 13:
ONNX Runtime's CUDA-13 support is still nascent (separate wheels + open
"Unsupported CUDA version: 13" reports), and torch bundles cu124 anyway. The
GPU (Ampere/Ada, 12 GB) is fine on either — this is a library-alignment call,
not a hardware limit.
- PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES=1: 24.04 marks system Python externally-managed
(PEP 668); a single-purpose container owns its environment, so global installs
are fine and simplest.
- agent/ruff.toml pinned to py312 (was py310) so CI lints against the real
runtime; from __future__ import annotations stays (PEP 649 lazy annotations
are 3.14, so self-refs still evaluate on 3.12).
CI builds the image but has no GPU — validate on the desktop after pull that it
starts and loads CUDAExecutionProvider (not CPU fallback).

The agent container (CUDA base, Python 3.10) crashed on startup with
`NameError: name 'Config' is not defined` — an earlier `ruff --fix` unquoted the
`from_env(cls) -> Config` self-reference, which is safe on CI's Python 3.14
(PEP 649 lazy annotations) but is evaluated at class-definition time on 3.10.
CI lint/compile run on 3.14, so it slipped through.
- config.py: `from __future__ import annotations` so the self-referential
annotation is a string, never evaluated — works on 3.10 and every version.
- agent/ruff.toml: pin the agent to `target-version = "py310"` (its real runtime)
and inherit the root rules. Ruff now flags exactly this class as F821, so CI's
lint lane catches it instead of shipping a broken image. (CI otherwise lints on
3.14, masking 3.10 issues.)
- client.py: submit path now retries in-place. A dedicated session with a
urllib3 Retry (connect/read/status, 0.5s backoff, 500/502/503/504, POST) so a
momentary blip after the GPU work is done doesn't discard it and force a full
re-download + recompute elsewhere. A duplicate submit after a lost response is
a harmless 409 no-op. Lease/fetch keep the plain session + loop-level backoff.

Addresses operator reports: Stop never finishes, the agent polls curator
constantly, and stale-cached pages get mistaken for a failed deploy.
- Stop is prompt: flip _running BEFORE any lock so /status + worker loops see
"stopped" immediately, and add a stop/shrink checkpoint in _process (after
decode, before the expensive detect+embed) that releases the job and bails —
so a Stop doesn't wait out heavy GPU work.
- Lazy curator polling: the queue snapshot is fetched only while a browser is
actually watching (a /status hit within UI_IDLE_GRACE) and on a 5s cadence,
not a constant background loop. The work loop's own lease/submit is curator's
only visitor otherwise — nothing polls just to poll.
- Build marker: VERSION is embedded in the page and reported on /status; the UI
shows a "reload" banner when they differ, so a browser-cached page can't be
mistaken for "the new image didn't deploy" (complements the no-store header).
CI: the lint lane now also `ruff check`s agent/ and compileall-parses it, so the
GPU agent is linted + syntax-checked before its image builds (build.yml only
`docker build`s it). Fixed the agent's pre-existing UP037/B905 so it passes.

Instrument the job pipeline so we can see where wall-clock actually goes and
decide — on data, not theory — whether a download/compute split is worth
building. Each stage is timed per job and a rolling breakdown is logged every
30s to the agent console, e.g.:
timing/30s — lease 8ms · download 310ms · decode 40ms · gpu 165ms · submit 70ms | wall/job 585ms (214 jobs)
- lease timed around client.lease() in the slot loop (per batch).
- download = fetch_image; decode = image/frame decode; gpu = detect + CCIP +
batched embed; submit = the results POST. One-time model load is excluded
from the gpu figure.
- Thread-safe accumulator (stage -> [sum, count]) summarised + reset by a small
daemon reporter thread; logs only when there was work.

The throughput bottleneck was curator-side, not the network. lease() claimed the
lowest-id pending/expired jobs with `... ORDER BY id LIMIT n`, but with only a
plain `status` index Postgres walked the primary key from id=1, skipping the
entire prefix of already done/error rows before reaching pending ones. As `done`
grew (69k+), every lease became an O(done) scan — leasing crawled, the DB
saturated, and even /status (the queue GROUP BY count) stalled the agent.
- Migration 0070 adds two partial indexes over just the live slice: pending rows
indexed by id (hot path), and leased rows by lease_expires_at (crash-recovery
+ orphan sweep). They stay tiny no matter how large the done/error history.
- lease() split into two phases so each uses a partial index: claim pending
first (id-ordered, O(batch)); reclaim expired leases only when pending can't
fill the batch. Same semantics (SKIP LOCKED, attempts++, expired reclaim).
- Model __table_args__ declares the indexes so ORM and schema agree.
- Test: a done-prefix at low ids must not stop the lease reaching pending.

Operator: the status tiles (state/active/processed) and the Start/Stop buttons
freeze while the GPU meters stay live. Root cause: /status made an INLINE
blocking curator call (queue_status) on every poll, and with curator buried
under a 112k-job backlog that call stalled — freezing the whole status refresh
(the GPU bars survived because /gpu is a lock-free local read). Made worse by the
old util-band autoscaler, which grew workers toward the 32 cap forever because
util plateaus ~50% on this IO-bound load and never hit the 70 grow threshold —
piling load onto curator and the agent process.
- /status is now a pure in-memory read: worker.status() is lock-free, and the
curator queue snapshot is refreshed by a background poller (never inline).
- Autoscaler replaced with a smoothed, throughput-aware climb that SETTLES:
samples util every 2s and EWMA-smooths it (raw util swings 0↔99), then every
~24s grows by one only while each grow keeps lifting smoothed jobs/s; when a
grow stops helping it backs off one and holds, re-probing occasionally. No
runaway, no flopping.
- GPU util bar now shows a smoothed value: the agent's own EWMA (util_smooth,
exposed on /gpu) when running, else smoothed client-side — so it glides
instead of bouncing 0↔99.
- act() aborts a slow Start/Stop POST after 8s so the buttons can't stick; the
now-always-fast /status refresh recovers state regardless.
- Log pane: bound the page to the viewport (height:100vh) so the Logs card
scrolls INTERNALLY instead of overflowing off-screen; cap the ring buffer at
400 lines.

The control page is a static string served with no cache headers, so after
pulling a fresh agent image the browser kept showing the OLD UI until a hard
refresh (operator-flagged). Add a no-store middleware covering the page and the
status/gpu/logs polls.

Operator: the buttons fire but the status view doesn't reflect the change. Cause:
act() ignored the POST's own status response and waited on the separate /status
poll (which lags behind the curator queue call). Now:
- act() applies the POST's returned status immediately for instant feedback, and
shows an optimistic "starting"/"stopping" state (pulsing, buttons disabled)
the moment it's clicked.
- A stop that still has in-flight jobs draining shows "stopping" until active
hits 0, then resolves to "stopped" on its own.
- applyStatus() guards the /status-only fields (connection pill + queue) so the
lean action response can't blank them — the Start/Stop path deliberately skips
the slow curator call to stay snappy.
Also de-duplicate GPU reads: read_gpu() now caches (1s TTL) with one probe at a
time, and /status no longer spawns its own nvidia-smi — so the fast /gpu poll +
autoscaler + /status share a single subprocess instead of piling up in the
server thread pool (which was what made clicks feel dead under load).

Two operator-reported issues with the GPU agent:
1. Worker count flopped almost every cycle, spiking the GPU. The hill-climb
probed +1, judged it over a too-short noisy throughput window, saw no clear
gain and reverted -1 — every tick. Replace it with a GPU-utilization-band
controller: HOLD while smoothed util sits in a healthy band, grow only on
clear spare capacity (util below the low mark + VRAM headroom), shrink under
saturation or memory pressure. Util is EWMA-smoothed and decisions are spaced
(DECIDE_EVERY samples), so a noisy nvidia-smi reading can't move the pool.
Load stays consistent instead of probe/reverting.
2. GPU util/VRAM bars only updated on manual refresh. They rode the /status
poll, which blocks on the curator queue call (slow when curator is busy), so
the meters froze between refreshes. Give them a dedicated /gpu endpoint
(local nvidia-smi only, no curator round-trip) polled every 1.5s, and drop
the curator queue-status timeout 15s -> 5s so /status itself stays snappy.

Two issues surfaced by the live logs (GPU pegged at ~0% util, 0.5 jobs/s,
truncated-image failures):
- BATCH the SigLIP embeds: collect all of an image's crops (figure + booru_yolo
components + panels) and embed them in ONE forward pass instead of one
forward+lock per crop. The per-crop path serialised every crop through the
inference lock and starved the GPU (≈0% util, autoscaler stuck oscillating);
batching gives a real GPU-bound workload + far higher throughput. CCIP still
runs per figure inline.
- LOAD_TRUNCATED_IMAGES in the agent (matches the server embedder): slightly-
truncated scraped images now load instead of failing the job 3× then erroring
("image file is truncated (N bytes not processed)").

logger; GET /logs serves it; the control page polls it into a console pane —
so runs are monitorable without `docker logs`. worker now logs autoscale moves
(one line per change, with jobs/s + util + VRAM) and job failures (job + image
+ reason); detectors already log load/disable.
- Restyled the whole control page: a proper dark layout with a header + live
connection pill, cards (Control / Status / Logs), a styled Auto switch +
worker stepper, status tiles, separate GPU-util and VRAM meters, and the log
console. No longer feels like an afterthought; all the existing control hooks

The new per-job workload (3 detectors + several SigLIP embeds) is far more
GPU-bound than the old I/O-bound CCIP pass, so the right worker count shifted and
is hard to guess. Add an Auto mode (default ON) that finds it:
- _control_loop samples jobs/sec + GPU util/VRAM every ~6s and hill-climbs the
target: grow while throughput keeps improving and VRAM stays under budget,
revert a step that doesn't help, back off under memory pressure (VRAM >= 90%),
then settle and periodically re-probe (the GPU/IO balance shifts over a run).
- A manual concurrency set is an override → leaves Auto; an "Auto" toggle in the
control UI re-enables it. status() reports `auto`; the dial reflects the
auto-chosen count (read-only) while Auto is on.
- AUTO_SCALE env (default on) + compose doc. Agent py-compiled (outside CI).

The siglip/ccip backfills skip images that already have current-version regions,
so adding crop detectors only affected NEW images — the back-catalogue would
never be re-cropped. Add a reprocess trigger that resets every done/error job of
a task back to pending, so the agent re-runs the FULL pipeline (figure detection
+ CCIP + concept/panel crops) over the whole library under the current detectors.

Better region PROPOSERS feeding the existing crop→SigLIP→max-over-bag heads (no
change to the learned-tagging approach; no per-tag cost — propose once, embed
each region, all heads in one matmul).
- detectors.py: lazy ultralytics YOLO wrapper, each proposer independently
optional + guarded (a bad weight spec / inference error self-disables that one,
logged, never breaks the worker). Weights resolve from an ultralytics name |
http(s) URL | "hf_repo::file", cached under HF_HOME. NMS merge so a figure two
detectors both find collapses to one crop.
- worker: figure boxes = imgutils detect_person ∪ general COCO person (merged)
→ CCIP + concept (anime + Western/realistic coverage); booru_yolo anatomy
components (head/cat-head/anatomy/…) → concept crops; comic panels → kind=
'panel' concept crops. Capped per frame (MAX_COMPONENTS/MAX_PANELS).
- config + compose: PERSON_WEIGHTS (default yolo11n.pt, works OOB),
ANATOMY_WEIGHTS + PANEL_WEIGHTS (operator sets booru_yolo URL + mosesb panel
hf::file; empty = off). ultralytics added to requirements.
- backend: image_region 'kind' doc notes 'panel'; no migration (free String,

Hygiene follow-up to the Camie retirement (#1189) — these were left inert to
bound that change; nothing reads them now. Migration 0068 drops:
- ml_settings: tagger_store_floor, tagger_model_version, suggestion_threshold_
character/general (already dead pre-retirement — scoring uses per-head
thresholds), video_min_tag_frames (only the deleted video-prediction
aggregator used it).
- image_record: tagger_model_version (no writer), centroid_scores (dead JSON
cache, no reader).
Also: ml_admin _EDITABLE/GET/_validate pruned (dropped the store-floor invariant
+ video_min_tag_frames check); MLThresholdSliders trimmed to a video-embedding
card (interval + max frames only); importer no longer resets the dropped cols;
download_models drops the Camie fetch; stale CASCADE comments in cleanup_service
no longer name the removed tables. Tests updated.

Heads + CCIP are the tag source and head auto-apply is the earned propagation.
The Camie tagger ran only to feed the allowlist bulk-apply (its ImagePrediction
rows had no other consumer), and the allowlist was a SECOND, un-earned auto-apply
path firing in parallel with heads on every accept — exactly the un-earned spray
the v2 pivot replaced. Retire both.
Behavior change: accepting a suggestion now applies the tag to THAT image only
(source='ml_accepted', a head-training positive) — it no longer allowlists +
fans the tag across the library via Camie. Propagation is heads' earned
auto-apply. (Loses instant cold-start propagation for booru-vocab tags; that was
un-earned and bypassed the precision gate.)
- tag_and_embed is now EMBED-ONLY (no Camie load/infer, no ImagePrediction
writes); backfill enqueues it for images with no embedding.
- Removed: services/ml/tagger.py, apply_allowlist_tags + helpers + daily beat +
every enqueue caller (accept/alias/merge/per-image), api/allowlist.py +
blueprint, ImagePrediction + TagAllowlist models/tables (migration 0067),
AllowlistTable.vue + allowlist store, the accept coverage-projection payload.
- AllowlistService gutted to accept/dismiss/undismiss/reject (the rejection store
the rail still needs); accept returns nothing, API returns {accepted, tag_id}.
- tag merge no longer repoints/triggers the allowlist; _keep_as_alias now keys on
ML-applied image_tag sources (incl. head_auto) instead of the allowlist.
- UI: MLBackfillCard relabelled to embedding-only; accept toast simplified;
MaintenancePanel drops the allowlist tile.
Left for a follow-up hygiene pass (now-inert, harmless): the dead settings
columns (tagger_store_floor, tagger_model_version, suggestion_threshold_*,
video_min_tag_frames), image_record.tagger_model_version, MLThresholdSliders
trim, and the Camie model download in download_models.py.

The v2 pivot replaced per-tag SigLIP centroids with learned heads + CCIP.
Centroids were still recomputed (on every tag merge + a daily beat) but NOTHING
read them — suggestions come from heads+CCIP and apply_allowlist_tags applies
via Camie predictions, not centroids. Pure dead wiring; remove it.
Removed: CentroidService, recompute_centroid/recompute_centroids tasks, the
daily beat, POST /api/ml/recompute-centroids, the recompute-on-merge trigger,
the tag_reference_embedding table + model, the centroid_similarity_threshold +
min_reference_images settings (migration 0066), the CentroidRecomputeCard +
its store action + MaintenancePanel tile, and the centroid slider in
MLThresholdSliders. _keep_as_alias drops its vestigial has-centroid branch (the
allowlist branch already covers "could re-emit"); tag merge no longer clears a
table that no longer exists.
NOT touched (still live, parallel to heads): the Camie tagger, ImagePrediction,
and the allowlist bulk-apply — accepting a suggestion still allowlists + applies
it across the library. The tag-eval "centroid" baseline metric is unrelated
(in-memory) and stays. (image_record.centroid_scores JSON column also remains —
separate legacy field, its own micro-cleanup.)

Make the SigLIP embedder an operator choice (drop-in to SigLIP 2:
google/siglip2-so400m-patch16-512 is a verified 1152-d model at 512px → no
schema change, better small-cue fidelity). A swap = set model + re-embed +
retrain, all operator-driven; the GPU agent does the re-embed so it's fast.
- settings: embedder_model_name is now a setting (migration 0065) alongside the
existing embedder_model_version; both editable + validated (non-empty) in the
ml admin API. The server embedder loads by HF name (AutoImageProcessor/Model,
model-agnostic), preferring the pre-downloaded local dir for the default so
existing deploys don't re-download; rebuilds on a name change.
- agent: new 'embed' job = whole-image SigLIP embedding (mean-pool video frames)
under the lease-announced model → POST /jobs/submit_embedding writes
image_record.siglip_embedding + siglip_model_version. The lease now announces
the model FROM THE SETTING (not a constant).
- re-embed routing: enqueue_gpu_backfill('embed') selects unembedded + stale-
version images; 'siglip' now re-embeds concept crops whose version != current
(so a swap re-triggers crops, not just the never-embedded back-catalogue). The
CPU ml-worker backfill no longer re-embeds on a version mismatch (it can't
churn the library at 512px) — the GPU agent owns version re-embeds. Daily
'embed' + 'siglip' beats self-heal.
- scoring: score_image only bags embeddings in the CURRENT model's space (whole-
image gated by siglip_model_version, concept regions by embedding_version) so a
mid-swap stale vector isn't scored by new-space heads; legacy NULL = current.
- UI: GpuAgentCard "Embedding model (advanced)" — edit name/version, Save, and
"Re-embed library (GPU)" (queues embed + siglip); points at SigLIP 2.
Tests: lease announces model + submit_embedding round-trip; enqueue 'embed'
selects stale/unembedded; stale-version excluded from scoring; embedder model
settable + empty rejected; siglip gate updated to current-version concept.

Pure nearest-cosine piled near-identical images into the neighbour grid — a
reposted banner filled all 24 slots, and once you wandered into a B&W /
comic-panel cluster every neighbour was more of the same with no way back to
colour without the Random button (operator-reported, with screenshot).
similar() now over-fetches a wide candidate pool (5x the requested limit, cap
200), then diversifies down to `limit`:
- pHash near-duplicate collapse: drop candidates within 6 Hamming bits of the
anchor or an already-kept candidate, so a repost (and the anchor's own clones)
appears at most once.
- MMR re-rank: greedily pick for closeness-to-anchor minus similarity-to-already
-picked (lambda 0.55), so the result SPANS clusters instead of returning 40
variations of one image. Falls back to nearest-order on any failure / small
pool, so existing nearest-first behaviour is unchanged when there's nothing to
diversify.
Frontend forwardTarget drops the now-redundant skip-nearest-third hack (the list
is already diversified server-side) — plain random-over-unvisited gives the
variance now.

For redeploying curator while away with nobody to restart the agent:
- _process now distinguishes a TRANSPORT error (curator down/redeploying, 5xx,
401/403/408/409/429, or our lease reclaimed mid-flight) from a genuine job
fault. On a transport error it hands the job back (best effort) and signals
the loop to back off — instead of calling fail(), which would burn the job's
server-side attempt budget (MAX_ATTEMPTS=3) and permanently error good jobs
across a redeploy. Job-specific 4xx (404 image gone) still fail so they don't
re-lease forever.
- lease loop retries with capped exponential backoff (poll_idle → 60s) and
resets on the first successful lease, so a long outage is gentle and recovery
is automatic within ≤60s of curator returning. Sleeps are interruptible so
Stop / pool-shrink stays responsive.
- AUTO_START env (default on in compose) resumes the worker on container start,
so a host reboot / crash-restart (restart: unless-stopped) self-heals with
nobody at the desktop.
- control UI shows a "waited out" counter + an "curator unreachable, holding
work" banner so the recovering state reads as recovery, not failure.

Lift recall on small/local concepts (glasses, cum, stomach-bulge, xray,
lactation) that the whole-image SigLIP vector washes out: the GPU agent now
embeds figure crops with SigLIP too, stored as kind='concept' regions, and the
suggestion rail scores each image as a BAG (whole-image + every concept crop),
taking each head's MAX over the bag. The whole-image vector is always in the
bag, so this can never score lower than before.
Model-agnostic by construction: the server ANNOUNCES the embedding model
(HF name + version) in the lease, so the agent loads whatever the heads were
trained in and stays in lock-step — a model swap is a server setting + a
re-embed migration, never an agent change.
- agent: model-agnostic CropEmbedder (torch/transformers get_image_features,
fp16 on CUDA, inference-locked); worker branches on job.task — 'ccip' emits
figure(CCIP)+concept(SigLIP) in one pass, 'siglip' emits concept-only so the
back-catalogue backfill never churns figure/CCIP regions; torch cu124 +
transformers in the image.
- server: lease announces embed_model_name/embed_version; score_image is
max-over-bag (version-filtered region embeddings); enqueue_gpu_backfill
'siglip' gates on a missing concept region (drains the back-catalogue,
retries failures, no double-enqueue); daily siglip-backfill beat; UI button;
/api/ccip/overview reports images_with_concept_siglip.
- v1 scope: suggestion rail only — auto-apply stays whole-image (conservative;
heads' thresholds were calibrated on whole-image). Bulk-apply bag = follow-up.
