Follow-up to #701: new tags are saved canonical, but the back-catalog keeps whatever casing it was created with. This adds a maintenance action that Title-Cases every existing tag (collapsing whitespace) and merges case/whitespace-variant duplicates into one. Backend: - tag_service.normalize_existing_tags(session, *, dry_run): groups all tags by (kind, coalesce(fandom_id,-1), canonical_name). Per group it picks a survivor (prefer an already-canonical member → no rename/self-alias; else the best-connected tag → fewest FK repoints; else lowest id), merges the variants INTO it via the tested TagService._do_merge (image_tag/allowlist/embedding/ aliases/series_page repoints + protective ML aliases), then renames the survivor to canonical. Losers are deleted before the rename so there's no transient unique-index clash; commits per group and isolates failures per group. Idempotent — an already-canonical lone tag is a no-op. - normalize_tags_task (maintenance queue, asyncio.run + per-task NullPool async engine, soft 1800/hard 2400) — recovery/timeout/duration covered by FC-3i. - POST /api/admin/tags/normalize: dry_run=true returns a projection inline (group/collision/rename counts + sample); dry_run=false enqueues the task. Frontend: a "Standardize tag casing" section in TagMaintenanceCard (Cleanup tab) — preview → apply (polls the activity dashboard to terminal status), behind a back-up-first warning. admin store gains normalizeTags(). Tests: tests/test_tag_normalize.py — dry-run counts, live merge + image-tag dedup/repoint, idempotency, same-name-different-fandom and -different-kind kept separate, ML-known loser keeps a protective alias.

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
