select_due_sources returned rows in undefined order (Postgres-determined, typically PK). At tick rates that outpace download-queue throughput, a freshly-rerun source could keep getting re-queued ahead of one that's still waiting for its first attempt this cycle. Operator-flagged 2026-05-30: > if there are 8 hours before a source is due again and 40 full time > downloads can happen in that period that means that there's a chance > the first one to fire gets back into the download queue before item 41 > has a chance to get downloaded. Added `ORDER BY last_checked_at ASC NULLS FIRST, id` to the due-source SELECT. Never-checked sources go first, then longest-since-checked, then ties broken by id. Combined with Celery's FIFO `download` queue, the oldest-overdue source in each tick now reaches a worker before any fresher one. Test pins the ordering: a NULL-last_checked source, a 4-hour-overdue source, and a 2-min-overdue source come back in that exact order from select_due_sources.

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
