A model file could only ever be linked to huggingface.co: `set_hf_url`
validated the URL with a huggingface-only regex, the agent fetched the card
from a hardcoded HF URL, and the readme processor built every relative image
path off `https://huggingface.co/{repo}/resolve/main`. ModelScope publishes the
same model-card convention (README.md + YAML frontmatter, often carrying
`base_model:` and `trigger_words:`) behind a public, key-less API, so the
enrichment pipeline could already serve it - it was the plumbing that was
HF-shaped, not the idea.
Make the external source a first-class, provider-driven concept:
- New `py/services/model_sources/` registry. A `ModelSource` owns URL
recognition (lenient for stored values, strict for user input), the
canonical page URL, model-card fetching, the asset base URL and the
capability flags. `HuggingFaceSource` is the previous logic relocated;
`ModelScopeSource` reads `/models/{o}/{n}/resolve/{master|main}/README.md`
and falls back to `/api/v1/models/{o}/{n}/repo`. `TensorArtSource` is
link-only on purpose: tensor.art answers plain HTTP clients with a
Cloudflare challenge and its internal API (ap-east-1.tensorart.cloud /
cn.tensorart.net) rejects every /v1/model/* route with "invalid
authorization header", so it declares supports_enrichment=False rather than
failing silently later.
- Metadata gains `source_platform` + `source_url`; `hf_url` stays as a
read/write alias, written only for Hugging Face, so existing sidecars,
cached rows and third-party consumers keep working. Normalisation runs at
the scanner, the persistent cache (both directions, plus two new columns
behind an ALTER migration) and the linking handler - which is what stops a
user who switches sources from leaving a stale `hf_url` on a ModelScope
model.
- The agent pipeline keys off the provider instead of `hf_url`: the fast-fail
gate now explains *why* a model is skipped (no source / unknown source /
source without a reachable card), the prompt context exposes
source_url/source_id/source_label/asset_base_url while still filling the
legacy hf_url/repo aliases, and the four README image extractors take a
base_url (defaulting to HF) so relative paths resolve against the right
site. Version grouping generalises to hf: / ms: / ta: keys.
- `POST /api/lm/set-hf-url` keeps its path and its legacy payload keys but
accepts `source_url`, validates against every provider and returns the
platform. `GET /api/lm/model-sources` lets the UI render the supported-site
list from the server.
- Frontend: a `modelSourceHelpers` mirror of the registry drives the link
dialog, the card/modal globe (branded "View on ModelScope/TensorArt"), the
version-group key and the enrichment gate; the versions tab no longer sends
ms:/ta: keys to the CivitAI API.
TensorArt stays in the list because provenance is worth keeping even when the
card is unreadable - the dialog says so plainly ("Sites that don't expose one
(currently TensorArt) can only be linked") and the context menu disables
enrichment with a matching tooltip, instead of the user getting
"Unsupported URL".
Verified against the real ModelScope API: jj3550945163/Krea-2-LORA returns a
1882-byte card whose frontmatter carries base_model/tags/trigger_words, and
relative images resolve to .../resolve/master/....
Tests: backend 2815 passed; frontend 1130 JS + 91 Vue passed; pytest
tests/i18n and a Jinja compile pass over templates/. The nine locales carry
[TODO: Translate] for the new strings, completed in the next commit.
Implement Phase 1 of docs/plans/issue-1085-rate-limit-design.md:
- New RateLimitCoordinator: per-host shared Retry-After gate with
exponential backoff (30s base, 1800s cap), minimum inter-request pacing
(default 0.75s), herd-free waiter serialization via per-destination
locks, and a bounded wait (default 300s) that raises instead of parking.
- Downloader.make_request: connectivity-guard fail-fast first, then gate
pacing; on 429 register the cooldown and wait-and-resend (bounded);
errors that passed through the gate are marked gate_handled.
- FallbackMetadataProvider / MetadataSyncService: a network provider 429
no longer fails over to other network providers (stops the CivArchive
flood); sqlite stays as local last resort. Rate-limited lookups now
report "Rate limited" instead of "Model not found", so transient 429s
no longer mark models civitai_deleted.
- _RateLimitRetryHelper skips its own sleep for gate_handled errors,
removing the double wait.
- New settings: rate_limit_gate_enabled, rate_limit_max_wait_seconds,
rate_limit_min_interval_seconds.
- 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)
- Bulk refresh filter now excludes models with hf_url
- Individual refresh for HF models only checks CivitAI API
- CivArchive client validates model IDs before querying
- save_metadata_updates now trims/lowercases/dedupes tags on write
- ModelFilterSet tag matching is now case-insensitive (both include/exclude)
- Removed redundant .lower() calls in tag_update_service.py
When a model is already classified as civitai_deleted=True via
.metadata.json but re-enters the failure block through the
civarchive/sqlite provider path (not the default provider),
needs_save was never set to True because civitai_api_not_found
and sqlite_attempted were both False. The flags were never
persisted to SQLite, causing the model to be re-fetched on
every restart.
Also demoted duplicate INFO/ERROR logging in fetch_and_update_model
to DEBUG (the use case already logs at WARNING), and added
exc_info=True to the fetch_all_civitai error handler.
When CivArchive returns HTTP 429 with a large retry_after, the bulk
metadata refresh would block for hours because:
1. FallbackMetadataProvider raised RateLimitError instead of continuing
to the next provider (e.g., SQLite archive was never reached).
2. _RateLimitRetryHelper retried long-rate-limit 429s 3 times — all
futile since the hourly cap hasn't reset.
3. The batch loop had no awareness of persistent rate-limiting,
causing 192+ models to each hammer the same rate-limited endpoint.
Changes:
- FallbackMetadataProvider: all 6 methods now continue to next provider
on RateLimitError instead of raising (model_metadata_provider.py)
- fetch_and_update_model: deleted-model path also continues on
RateLimitError so sqlite provider gets a chance (metadata_sync_service.py)
- _RateLimitRetryHelper: when retry_after >= 120s, only 1 attempt is
made — retries are futile for hour-scale rate limits
- BulkMetadataRefreshUseCase: tracks consecutive rate-limit failures
and aborts early after 3 (bulk_metadata_refresh_use_case.py)
Tests: updated test_fallback_respects_retry_limit for new continue
behavior; added tests for large/small retry_after thresholds.
When a deleted model is checked against the SQLite archive and not found, the `db_checked` flag was set in memory but never saved to disk. This occurred because the save operation was only triggered when `civitai_api_not_found` was True, which is not the case for deleted models (since the CivitAI API is not attempted). As a result, deleted models would be rechecked on every refresh instead of being skipped.
Changes:
- Introduce a `needs_save` flag to track when metadata state is updated
- Save metadata whenever `db_checked` is set to True, regardless of API status
- Ensure `last_checked_at` is set for SQLite-only attempts
- Add regression test to verify the fix
- Update `is_civitai_api_metadata` to exclude both "archive_db" and "civarchive" sources
- Skip Civitai metadata updates when existing metadata is higher quality than incoming archive data
- Add test to verify API metadata is preserved when CivArchive provides lower-quality data
- Track when Civitai API returns "Model not found" for default provider
- Use dedicated flag instead of error string comparison for deletion detection
- Ensure archive-sourced models don't get marked as deleted
- Add test coverage for archive source deletion flag behavior
- Fix deletion flag logic to properly handle provider fallback scenarios
Add license resolution utilities and integrate license information into model metadata processing. The changes include:
- Add `resolve_license_payload` function to extract license data from Civitai model responses
- Integrate license information into model metadata in CivitaiClient and MetadataSyncService
- Add license flags support in model scanning and caching
- Implement CommercialUseLevel enum for standardized license classification
- Update model scanner to handle unknown fields when extracting metadata values
This ensures proper license attribution and compliance when working with Civitai models.
- Add RateLimitError import and _make_request wrapper method to handle rate limiting
- Update API methods to use _make_request wrapper instead of direct downloader calls
- Add explicit RateLimitError handling in API methods to properly propagate rate limit errors
- Add _extract_retry_after method to parse Retry-After headers
- Improve error handling by surfacing rate limit information to callers
These changes ensure that rate limiting from the Civitai API is properly detected and handled, allowing callers to implement appropriate backoff strategies when rate limits are encountered.
Refactor metadata sync service to use a prioritized provider fallback system when handling deleted CivitAI models. The new approach:
1. Attempts civarchive_api provider first for deleted models
2. Falls back to sqlite provider if archive DB is enabled
3. Maintains existing default provider behavior for non-deleted models
4. Tracks provider attempts and errors for better debugging
This improves reliability when fetching metadata for deleted models by trying multiple sources before giving up, and provides clearer error messages based on which providers were attempted.
- Fix CivArchive model ID redirect logic to only follow redirects when context points to original model
- Rename CivitaiModelMetadataProvider to CivArchiveModelMetadataProvider for consistency
- Reorder fallback metadata providers to prioritize Civitai API over CivArchive API for better metadata quality
- Remove unused asyncio import and redundant logging from metadata sync service
* add CivArchive API
* Oops, missed committing this part when I updated codebase to latest version
* Adjust API for version fetching and solve the broken API (hash gives only files, not models - likely to be fixed but in the meantime...)
* add asyncio import to allow timeout cooldown
