The SHA256 of an empty byte string (written by repackaging tools into
safetensors metadata, or produced by hashing an empty/unreadable file)
was previously resolved against CivitAI's by-hash API, which can contain
polluted entries for it (e.g. a broken SD 1.5 LoRA whose AutoV3 equals
the placeholder) and falsely attributed the wrong model to a recipe.
Guard all lookup paths for the 10/12/64-char AutoV2/AutoV3/full-SHA256
spellings: CivitaiClient.get_model_by_hash/_fetch_version_by_hash return
not-found without a request, and ModelHashIndex ignores the placeholder
in has_hash/get_path/add_autov3.
The Automatic1111 metadata parser keeps the LoRA item itself when its
hash is the placeholder: it matches by filename locally, or retains the
entry with an empty hash flagged hashInvalid (unresolvable-hash state in
the UI, with reconnect as the remedy) instead of dropping it or resolving
it to a polluted CivitAI entry.
- Three-state autov3 field (not-checked / checked-unavailable / 12-hex value)
in .metadata.json sidecars, in-memory ModelHashIndex, and SQLite
(models.autov3 column + autov3_index table) with column-presence migration
- Background self-terminating backfill for legacy rows: per-model-type
concurrency guard, executor-offloaded I/O, Civitai-first resolution
(SHA256-matched version file) falling back to the embedded safetensors
header hash
- Civitai-first propagation on metadata refresh, scan, and download paths;
reject the empty-string SHA256 placeholder and strip OneTrainer 0x prefix
- List API hash filters and hash index lookups accept 12-char AutoV3
- Cap safetensors header reads at 64 MiB to prevent crafted-file allocation
- Prevent stale AutoV3 mappings on file replacement while preserving them on
same-file re-registration (lazy-hash completion)
Detects when multiple model files share the same basename (causing
ambiguity in LoRA resolution), logs warnings during scanning, and
provides a "Resolve Conflicts" button in the Doctor panel. Resolution
renames duplicates with hash-prefixed unique filenames, migrates all
sidecar and preview files, and updates the cache and frontend scroller
in-place so the model modal immediately reflects the new filename.
