Operator: the status tiles (state/active/processed) and the Start/Stop buttons freeze while the GPU meters stay live. Root cause: /status made an INLINE blocking curator call (queue_status) on every poll, and with curator buried under a 112k-job backlog that call stalled — freezing the whole status refresh (the GPU bars survived because /gpu is a lock-free local read). Made worse by the old util-band autoscaler, which grew workers toward the 32 cap forever because util plateaus ~50% on this IO-bound load and never hit the 70 grow threshold — piling load onto curator and the agent process. - /status is now a pure in-memory read: worker.status() is lock-free, and the curator queue snapshot is refreshed by a background poller (never inline). - Autoscaler replaced with a smoothed, throughput-aware climb that SETTLES: samples util every 2s and EWMA-smooths it (raw util swings 0↔99), then every ~24s grows by one only while each grow keeps lifting smoothed jobs/s; when a grow stops helping it backs off one and holds, re-probing occasionally. No runaway, no flopping. - GPU util bar now shows a smoothed value: the agent's own EWMA (util_smooth, exposed on /gpu) when running, else smoothed client-side — so it glides instead of bouncing 0↔99. - act() aborts a slow Start/Stop POST after 8s so the buttons can't stick; the now-always-fast /status refresh recovers state regardless. - Log pane: bound the page to the viewport (height:100vh) so the Logs card scrolls INTERNALLY instead of overflowing off-screen; cap the ring buffer at 400 lines.

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
