The extension is installed per-instance from the operator's FC host, so Firefox's
static update_url can't apply (each instance has a different host) and updates
were fully manual. Add a self-hosted-friendly update surface that reuses the
existing public GET /api/extension/manifest ({version, latest_url, sha256}):
- lib/api.js: getExtensionManifest().
- background.js: checkForUpdateInfo() compares the instance's latest published
version against runtime.getManifest().version (dotted-numeric compare so
1.0.10 > 1.0.9); CHECK_UPDATE message handler; refreshUpdateBadge() sets a
toolbar badge via browser.action; a daily browser.alarms check plus on
startup/installed. New 'alarms' permission (non-prompting).
- popup: an 'Update available — vX' banner with an Update button that opens the
signed XPI (web root, /api stripped like OPEN_ARTIST_PAGE) → Firefox's native
install prompt. Never blocks the popup on a failed check.
No backend changes (endpoint already exists). Bump 1.0.8→1.0.9 so this ships;
from here on updates surface themselves instead of needing a manual reinstall.

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
