Typed, loud failure mapping for the native Patreon ingester so a changed
API shape or expired auth never silently zero-downloads as "success".
- New ErrorType.API_DRIFT (free varchar error_type col → no migration):
distinct from auth so the operator knows the fix is updating the
ingester, not rotating cookies.
- patreon_client: PatreonAPIError carries status_code; new PatreonAuthError
for 401/403 + HTML-login/non-JSON bodies (reclassified from drift —
expired-session is auth, actionable as "rotate cookies").
- patreon_ingester._failure_result maps: PatreonAuthError→AUTH_ERROR,
PatreonDriftError→API_DRIFT ("Patreon API changed — ingester needs
update"), HTTP 429→RATE_LIMITED, 404→NOT_FOUND, other HTTP→HTTP_ERROR,
transport→NETWORK_ERROR. (429 thus drives the platform cooldown.)
- FailingSourcesCard: api_drift chip (red) + hint.
Contract test (new test_patreon_contract.py): the recorded /api/posts
fixture must parse end-to-end (no drift, 5 media across 4 posts) AND the
request params must still carry every field the parser depends on
(file_name, image_urls/download_url, images/attachments_media/media
includes, content/post_file/image post fields) — a trim of either trips a
red build. Plus client HTTP-status classification tests and ingester
error-type mapping tests.

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
