Per-artist "+N" accent pill on the artists directory and a "N new since last visit" banner inside ArtistView. Counts new IMAGES (not posts) so multi-image posts increment correctly. - alembic 0034: artist_visit (artist_id PK, last_viewed_at NOT NULL). Seeds every existing artist with last_viewed_at=NOW() so the badge starts at 0 across the board — no noisy "5000 unseen images" on first deploy. - ArtistService.find_or_create autoseeds a visit row alongside new artists, so freshly imported content doesn't read as unseen. - ArtistService.overview reads pre-visit last_viewed_at, counts images created since, then atomically UPSERTs last_viewed_at=NOW() via postgres ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE (no SELECT-then-INSERT race per reference_scalar_one_or_none_duplicates). Returns the pre-update count as `unseen_count_at_visit` so the banner has data. - ArtistDirectoryService.list_artists adds an `unseen_count` aggregate to each card via LEFT JOIN artist_visit + conditional COUNT. NULL last_viewed_at (artist created before this code shipped) defensively counts as "never visited" → all images unseen. - Frontend: ArtistCard renders an accent pill in the preview-strip corner when unseen_count > 0 (capped at 99+); ArtistView shows a closable v-alert banner on initial load when unseen_count_at_visit > 0, re-arms on slug change. Single-row-per-artist (no user_id) — rule #47 multi-user ACL is aspirational; widens to (user_id, artist_id) PK when User lands, per rule #22. Scribe plan #597.
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
