+Additive only. New table records every Celery task attempt via signal
+handlers (backend.app.celery_signals). Status is plain String(16) not
+Postgres ENUM (per feedback_check_existing_enums: ENUM columns hard-
+fail at INSERT, String columns extend cleanly).
+
+Composite indexes anticipate the three dashboard panes:
+- (queue, started_at desc)   — per-lane recent activity
+- (status, started_at desc)  — recent failures pane
+- (task_name, started_at desc) — drill-down by task
+
+Indexed columns get individual indexes via `index=True` on the model;
+the composites below cover the multi-column lookups.

+# FabledCurator Firefox Extension
+
+Self-hosted Firefox extension that pushes session cookies from supported
+platforms (Patreon, SubscribeStar, Hentai-Foundry, Discord, Pixiv,
+DeviantArt) into FabledCurator, and lets you add a creator as a Source
+from their page in one click.
+
+## Install (operator)
+
+The signed XPI is bundled into the FC Docker image. Open FC →
+Settings → Maintenance → Browser extension → click "Install Firefox
+extension". Firefox shows its native install prompt. After installing,
+open the extension's options page (about:addons → FabledCurator →
+Preferences) and paste in the FC URL + extension API key shown on the
+same card.
+
+## Develop
+
+```sh
+cd extension/
+npm install --no-save        # web-ext only
+npm run lint                 # web-ext lint
+npm run start                # launches Firefox with extension loaded
+npm run build                # unsigned XPI in web-ext-artifacts/
+```
+
+## Smoke checklist (after every release that touches `extension/**`)
+
+- [ ] `npm run lint` passes
+- [ ] `npm run start` loads the extension in a clean Firefox profile
+- [ ] Options page accepts FC URL + key, indicator turns green
+- [ ] Cookie export: log into patreon.com, click Patreon card → "X cookies exported"
+- [ ] Discord token: open discord.com, click Discord card → "Token captured"
+- [ ] Pixiv OAuth: click Pixiv card → login redirects, token stored
+- [ ] Add as source: visit patreon.com/<creator>, click floating button → toast
+- [ ] Subscriptions list: popup → "Sources" tab → list renders
+- [ ] Check now: click play icon on source row → no error toast
+
+## Release
+
+Bump `manifest.json` + `package.json` SemVer (both files) and commit
+under `extension/**`. The `.forgejo/workflows/extension.yml` workflow
+runs `web-ext sign` on main, commits the signed XPI to
+`frontend/public/extension/`, and the next FC server build bundles it
+into the Docker image.
