Two coupled bugs surfaced 2026-05-31 by the Subscriptions UI showing "phantom" subscriptions like `sidecar:patreon:dpmaker`: 1. `SourceService.list()` returned every Source, no filter on URL. alembic 0022 (2026-05-26) consolidated old per-post-URL Sources into one canonical row per (artist, platform); when no real campaign URL was salvageable it rewrote the canonical to `sidecar:<plat>:<slug>` enabled=false as a disabled anchor. The UI then listed those anchors as if they were polls — disabled, but visible. Fix: `list()` excludes `url LIKE 'sidecar:%'` by default; `include_synthetic=True` opts back in for admin tooling. 2. `importer._source_for_sidecar` picked the lowest-id Source for (artist, platform). When alembic 0022 had rewritten a per-post row into a synthetic anchor (lower id) AND the operator later added the real subscription (higher id), every gallery-dl download silently attached its Post to the SYNTHETIC instead of the real Source. Fix: prefer a non-`sidecar:%` URL when one exists; fall back to the synthetic; only create a new synthetic when nothing exists for (artist, platform). alembic 0028 is the data half: for every (artist, platform) with both a synthetic AND a real Source, pre-merge Post+ImageProvenance collisions on the canonical, bulk-repoint Posts/ImageProvenance/ DownloadEvent.source_id onto the real Source, and delete the synthetic. Lone synthetics (no real twin) are left intact — they anchor real imported content the operator may still want; the list-filter hides them so they no longer surface as phantoms.
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
