A fandom owns characters via Tag.fandom_id, but every image<->tag query went purely through direct image_tag rows, so a fandom only surfaced images literally tagged with it — images carrying one of its characters were invisible to its browse count, previews, and gallery filter. Derive membership at query time instead of materializing fandom rows (which would drift on every reassign/merge/remove). Add one shared predicate in tag_query.py — image_in_tag_scope / image_in_any_tag_scope: an image belongs to a tag if tagged with it directly OR (when the tag is a fandom) carrying a character whose fandom_id is that tag. The character leg is empty for non-fandom tags, so it applies uniformly with no kind branching. Route all read sites through it: - gallery _apply_scope: include, OR-groups, and symmetric exclude - directory image_count: correlated COUNT(DISTINCT) scalar subquery - directory previews: UNION direct + via-character, then ROW_NUMBER<=3 - cleanup count_tag_associations: Tier-B delete prompt now reports a fandom's true blast radius (was 0 for fandoms with no direct rows) find_unused_tags already protected fandoms via used_via_fandom; left as is.

FabledCurator
Self-hosted media curation — gallery, ML tagging, and subscription-driven downloading in one app. Part of the FabledSword family.
Combines what was ImageRepo (gallery, ML, importer) and GallerySubscriber (gallery-dl wrapper, subscriptions, credential capture) into a single product.
Status
Pre-v1. Not yet functional.
Quick start
For local development and testing, just:
docker compose up -d
# UI: http://localhost:8080
That uses sane dev defaults baked into docker-compose.yml and the dev
override (docker-compose.override.yml, auto-merged) — local builds, DEBUG
logging, exposed Postgres + Redis ports on the host. No .env required.
For a production-like deployment, override the dev defaults via shell env
or a .env file (see .env.example for the variable names) and use:
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d
# (skips the override so containers pull registry images)
Deployment posture
FabledCurator is designed to run inside a self-hosted homelab environment over plain HTTP. If you want TLS, terminate it at your reverse proxy. The app does not generate certificates, redirect to HTTPS, or set HSTS.
CI / Forgejo setup
The repo's workflows expect:
-
Runner label
python-ci— a Forgejo runner with Python 3.14, ruff, and Node 22 pre-installed. Bothci.ymlandbuild.ymluse this label. The runner image (runner-base:python-ci) is built fromCI-Runner/CI-python/in the operator's workspace;make pushfrom that directory builds and pushes a new image when toolchain pins change. -
Repo secret
RELEASE_TOKEN— a Forgejo PAT with the following scopes:write:package+read:package— fordocker pushtogit.fabledsword.comwrite:release— for future release-cutting workflowswrite:issue— for future issue-management automation
