`project_artist_cascade` is documented as "a read-only projection of what delete_artist_cascade would touch" and drives the Tier-C confirm dialog, but it counted only images, sources, thumbs, import_tasks and bytes. It never counted posts or attachments, both of which the apply destroys. That is silent in the worst case. `Post.artist_id` is ondelete=CASCADE, so every post goes whether or not it carried an image — and FC has a large body-only post population (#1288 measured 694 pixiv posts with text and no images). Such an artist previewed as `images: 0`, reading as "empty, safe to remove", while the apply destroyed every captured body, description, external-link set and raw_metadata snapshot. The danger-zone card already promised "every image, source, post, and attachment" — the copy was honest and the numbers were not. Root of the drift: the preview re-derived its own predicates instead of sharing the apply's, the same shape as the 2026-06-08 fandom-tag deletion that rule 93 exists for. So rather than bolt on two counts, both halves now build from shared `_artist_{images,posts,attachments}_conditions` helpers, following the `_unused_tag_conditions` / `_bare_post_conditions` style already in the file. Sources keep no helper — the apply doesn't query them either, it gets them from the Artist.sources ORM cascade. The apply also now reports `posts_deleted` (counted before the delete, since the CASCADE leaves nothing to count after). Rule 93's second half asks for the apply to be tested, and parity is only assertable if both halves state the number. Adds a preview/apply parity test that runs both against one artist and asserts the three pairs agree AND that the rows actually went, plus a body-only-artist test covering the case that motivated this. The confirm dialog's counts grid renders every key, so posts and attachments surface there automatically; the prose summary line names posts explicitly, since that is the number that changes how an artist reads.

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
