PostAttachment's two FKs are both ON DELETE SET NULL, so a deleted post or artist left the row behind rather than taking it. Nothing ever pruned those rows, and nothing in the repo had ever unlinked a file under the attachment store — so both rows and bytes accumulated permanently, invisible to every existing diagnostic. Why a disk->DB reconciliation rather than a row sweep: the store is sha-addressed and idempotent, so ONE blob backs MANY rows. Deleting a row does not free its blob, and since the artist cascade (#3066) now deletes its attachment rows outright, a freed blob has no DB pointer left to find it by. Walking the store and asking "does any row still reference this sha?" catches orphans from every cause, including ones no future delete path will think to report. Preview and apply share `_orphan_attachment_conditions` (rule 93). The dry-run derives its surviving-sha set by NEGATING that same predicate, so it is honest about blobs the delete would free rather than counting them as still-referenced — the one place this was easy to get backwards, so it has its own parity test. Guards, each with a reason: - A blob is written before its row commits, so a just-stored file legitimately has no referencing row. Files under 6h are never judged — same guard and reasoning as ORPHAN_TEMP_MIN_AGE_HOURS. - `.partial` staging files belong to cleanup_orphaned_temp_files; skipped rather than raced. - The sha is parsed as the first 64 chars, not via Path.stem: store() takes the extension from the source filename, and a URL-encoded basename yields a multi-dot suffix that would make stem eat part of the sha. - A 900s walk budget reports partial=True instead of running to the task's hard limit (rule 89). - TASK_STUCK_THRESHOLD_MINUTES override at 30 (= time_limit 25 + 5). Without it a healthy 20-minute walk is phantom-flagged 'RecoverySweep' at the bare 5-min default — the #883 failure class; its invariant test is mirrored here. Defaults to the safe preview at both the task and the route, unlike the other maintenance triggers: this apply unlinks files. Operator-triggered only, never on a beat. Ships with its UI (rule 27): AttachmentReclaimCard in Cleanup → Duplicates & leftovers, built on the existing useMaintenanceTask/MaintenanceTile shapes, so a run survives navigating away. Surfaces files_failed and partial explicitly, since both change what the numbers mean. Also promotes humanBytes to utils/bytes.js — it was byte-identical in VideoDedupCard and GatedPurgeCard and this card would have been the third copy. The three divergent `formatBytes` helpers are deliberately left alone. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
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
