`2026.8.28.1249` becomes `2026.08.28.1249`. Note #3127 §1 and rule 148 both specify the padded form. The old reasoning was that each segment should read as a plain integer, and it never held — comparison strips leading zeros on parse anyway, which the same paragraph said. What stripping actually bought was this project emitting `2026.8.28.1432` while a sibling emitted `2026.08.28.1432`: two shapes one character apart, which is the hard kind of difference to notice. Two obviously different formats would be safer than two nearly identical ones, and identical is safer still. Nothing already published is reordered: comparison is numeric per dot-segment, so `08` and `8` are equal. strip0 goes, and with it three of the four git calls per version — git's format-local takes the whole format string, and splitting it into pieces only ever existed to strip the padding between them. It also fixes a real edge the old helper mangled. A commit at 03:22 UTC derived `322` for its HHMM field, silently turning a four-digit field into three; it now derives `0322`. Verified against a real commit rather than reasoned about. Checked before relying on it, since step 8 feeds this to Firefox: the extension's comparator is `parseInt(n, 10)` with an explicit radix, so `08` reads as 8 and there is no octal hazard (rule 150). Two tests added. One pins the padded shape — the only thing keeping the family's projects emitting one string is an assertion that they do. The other asserts version and revision describe the same commit: they are derived independently, and a divergence would mean an instance naming one commit while carrying another's bytes, which is unfalsifiable from outside because both values still look well-formed.
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
In production. main is continuously deployed — every merge to main builds
and publishes :latest images, so whatever is on main is what is running.
Day-to-day work happens on dev, which publishes :dev images.
What's in here
Five deployable pieces, built by .forgejo/workflows/build.yml:
| Piece | Built from | Image | Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Web / workers | Dockerfile |
fabledcurator |
Quart API + the built Vue SPA in one image. entrypoint.sh picks the role: web, worker, scheduler. The maintenance-long service is a second worker pinned to the long-running maintenance queue. |
| ML worker | Dockerfile.ml |
fabledcurator-ml |
Same app, plus requirements-ml.txt — tagging and embedding models that run in-container. |
| GPU agent | agent/Dockerfile |
fabledcurator-agent |
Optional desktop-GPU worker (agent/). Leases jobs over HTTP only — never touches the database or Redis. Run it for a burst, stop it to reclaim the card. See agent/README.md. |
| Firefox extension | extension/ |
signed XPI | MV3 extension: pushes platform session cookies into FC and adds a creator as a Source in one click. AMO-signed on both dev and main (one signature per extension change, shared by the two channels), bundled into that channel's web image and served from Settings → Maintenance. See extension/README.md. |
| Data | — | pgvector/pgvector:pg16, redis:7-alpine |
Postgres with pgvector for embeddings; Redis as the Celery broker. |
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)
The GPU agent is deployed separately, on the machine with the card —
agent/docker-compose.yml, not this stack.
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
Three workflows: ci.yml (lint, extension-version check, backend unit tests,
frontend build, integration), extension.yml (extension lint, vitest, XPI
content verification), and build.yml (sign + publish).
The toolchain each job runs in is its container.image, not its runs-on
label. runs-on: python-ci only schedules the job onto a runner; every job
then names the image it actually wants. ci-requirements.md is the current,
authoritative list of images and per-job installs — read that rather than a
copy here, so the two can't drift.
The repo expects one secret:
-
RELEASE_TOKEN— a Forgejo PAT with:write:package+read:package— fordocker pushtogit.fabledsword.comwrite:release— for theext-<version>releases that cache the signed XPIwrite:issue— for issue-management automation
Generate at https://git.fabledsword.com/user/settings/applications. The injected
GITHUB_TOKENcannot be used because it lackswrite:package.
AMO signing additionally needs MOZILLA_AMO_JWT_KEY / MOZILLA_AMO_JWT_SECRET; it runs on
main only and is cached per version, since AMO rejects a re-signed version.
