-  - `downloader`— `.download_post(post, media, artist_slug, is_seen,
-                  should_stop) -> [MediaOutcome]` (status in downloaded/
-                  skipped_seen/skipped_disk/quarantined/error;

-"""Native Patreon JSON:API client (build step 1 of the native ingester).
-
-Clean-room reimplementation of the Patreon `/api/posts` read path. This is a
-plain, synchronous client over `requests` — the orchestrator already wraps
-sync importer calls, so nothing here needs to be async (mirrors
-patreon_resolver.py, which wraps its sync lookup in run_in_executor at the
-call site).
-
-Scope (build step 1): fetch + page + parse only. This module is NOT wired into
-download_service yet — that is a later step. The public surface here exists so
-the later step can drive it:
-  - PatreonClient(cookies_path).iter_posts(campaign_id)
-        → (post, included_index, page_cursor)
-  - extract_media(post, included_index) → list[MediaItem]
-  - parse_cursor_from_url(url) → cursor
-
-Drift detection is loud on purpose: Patreon ships JSON:API and the shapes we
-depend on (top-level `data`, media resources carrying `file_name`/`url`) are
-the contract. If a response comes back as an HTML login page or a media
-resource is missing the fields we resolve against, we raise PatreonDriftError
-rather than silently yielding empty media — so the later import step surfaces
-"Patreon changed something" instead of "creator has no posts".
-
-FC runs on a plain-HTTP homelab; nothing here uses a secure-context Web API.

-gallery-dl produces, write a sidecar JSON the existing importer consumes, and
-report per-media outcomes.

-This module is PURE: no DB. The cross-run seen-ledger and the iter_posts

-(`is_seen`), so this module needs no DB and is unit-testable without network.
-
-On-disk layout (matches gallery-dl):
-  <images_root>/<artist_slug>/patreon/<DIR>/<NN>_<filename>
-  where <DIR> = "<YYYY-MM-DD>_<post_id>_<title40>" (date prefix omitted when the
-  post's published_at is unparseable), <NN> is the 1-based index of the item in
-  the post zero-padded to 2, and <filename> is MediaItem.filename. The sidecar
-  is written next to the media as <NN>_<stem>.json (media_path.with_suffix).
-
-Video: a MediaItem whose URL is a Mux/HLS stream (host stream.mux.com or path
-endswith .m3u8) is fetched with yt-dlp (subprocess), passing the same
-Referer/Origin headers gallery-dl forwards for Mux playback (see gallery_dl.py

-Three modes (selected by `download_service` from `config_overrides` state):
-  - tick      — newest→oldest, skip seen (tier-1 ledger + tier-2 disk), early-out
-                after N contiguous already-have-it items (the cheap native
-                equivalent of gallery-dl's `exit:20`, now free of per-file HEADs).
-  - backfill  — full-history walk in a time-boxed chunk, resuming from the
-                pagination cursor checkpoint; reaches the bottom → "complete".
-  - recovery  — like backfill but BYPASSES the tier-1 seen-ledger AND the
-                dead-letter ledger, so deliberately-dropped-and-deleted near-dups
-                get re-fetched and re-evaluated under the current pHash threshold
-                (tier-2 disk skip still spares files we kept).
-
-The seen/dead-letter ledgers live in Postgres (`patreon_seen_media` /
-`patreon_failed_media`); the core opens SHORT-LIVED sync sessions per page batch
-— never held across a network fetch ([[db-connection-held-across-subprocess]]).
-FC runs on a plain-HTTP homelab; nothing here uses a secure-context Web API.
