End-to-end verification against the live site found the price capture broken for
a whole class of users: the civitai page hosts are not interchangeable, and the
user's civitai_host preference was silently fatal. With civitai_host=civitai.red
the update DB held zero prices even with tracking enabled.
- civitai.red refuses non-browser HTTP clients outright (Cloudflare challenge,
403 for any User-Agent, aiohttp and httpx alike), while civitai.com and
civitai.green answer normally for anonymously visible models and 404 for
mature ones. An earlier manual check with curl passed on TLS fingerprint luck,
which is why this was missed.
- get_model_prices now tries the configured host first, then the others, and
takes the first parseable payload. The host that worked is remembered, and a
host that refuses outright is parked for 15 minutes so a library full of
mature models does not pay three requests each; a 404 is model-specific and
does not park the host. Links keep using the configured host, which is where
the user's own browser has clearance.
- Mature models still have no price source anywhere, so that is now stated
instead of silent: price_check_attempted_at separates "tried and unreadable"
from "never looked", gated versions show a muted "Price unavailable" badge,
and the alerts panel reports unavailableCount.
- Failures are logged at warning level, once per host per TTL, with the
per-host reason, instead of only at debug level.
- The recorded alternatives (internal tRPC with the user's API key, or an
extension-assisted fetch from the user's browser) and the strengthened
upstream ask for a public price field are documented in the plan.
P5a of docs/plans/paid-model-price-tracking.md: one surface that answers "what
got cheaper / became free", without a permanent button (the grid filter was
dropped by owner decision, so the panel carries the actions itself).
- price_alert_since records when an alert started, so the panel can say
"dropped 3 d ago" and count what is new since the user last looked; it is set
on the first sight of an already-cheap version, preserved while the alert
stands, and cleared when the price rises back above the threshold
- get_price_alerts() compares the threshold at read time (editing it takes
effect immediately, no refresh needed) and returns both kinds in one list;
model_type=None covers every type, which the shared update DB makes a single
query. "became free" needs no price data, so it is reported even while price
tracking is off
- GET /api/lm/price-alerts, registered once in MiscRoutes rather than per model
type, decorating rows best-effort with the local model name and file path from
the scanner indexes (a cold cache just omits them)
- a third tab in the notification bell: segments for under-threshold and
became-free, the three states (tracking off / nothing matching / stale), and
per-row actions (CivitAI always, Open when the model is local)
- two non-permanent entry points share one helper: the controls-bar updates
dropdown and the global context menu, whose label carries the unread count
- unread state stays client-side (localStorage watermark); the count is fetched
once on init and only when price tracking is enabled
- the per-type frontend client method is removed as dead code; the per-type
backend route stays for the companion extension
CivitAI's public API deliberately omits prices — paidAccess is trimmed to
{permanent, endsAt} because "pricing belongs to the purchase flow" — but the
public model page embeds the site's own model.getById result, including
paidAccess.terms, in its server-rendered payload. That is read anonymously
(no API key, no internal endpoint, no forged Origin), one request per gated
model, so only the ~2% of models that actually carry a gate pay for it.
- optional capture, off by default: price_tracking_enabled,
price_alert_threshold_buzz (0 = alert on "became free" only) and
price_check_ttl_hours; prices refresh on their own TTL and immediately when a
gate changes, and a failed fetch keeps the stored price instead of blanking it
- versions that stop carrying a gate are marked free (persisted gate_lapsed_at)
and gate transitions are reported as events on the refresh response, so a
version already in the library can announce that it became free
- price_alert_state plus a price_drop edge event; new
GET /api/lm/{type}/updates/price-alerts lists what is under the threshold
- versions tab shows the price (effective, with the list price struck through
and a Blue Buzz note) and a Free Now badge; an update check toasts the
transitions in one message
- the parser and the alerts query are unit-tested against a trimmed page
fixture, and every route definition is now asserted to resolve to a handler
Plan, verification notes and the deviations from it are in
docs/plans/paid-model-price-tracking.md.
CivitAI only returns a non-null paidAccess for an *active* gate: a lapsed gate
stays in the database as a tombstone and is filtered out server-side, so
{"permanent": false, "endsAt": null} — a timed gate whose window end has not
been recorded yet — is still enforced. Verified live: on model 1802980 that
version reports canDownload: false while its lapsed siblings report true.
Both the update service and the download gate dropped that shape, so such
versions read as free and "Hide Early Access Updates" missed them — the class
of bug reported in #1060.
The interpretation now lives in py/utils/paid_access.py and is shared, so the
badge, the update filter and the download warning cannot disagree.
CivitAI's PaidAccess cutover deprecated the availability=EarlyAccess and
earlyAccessEndsAt signals; gated versions now report availability=Public
with a paidAccess DTO that LoRA Manager previously ignored, so "Hide
Early Access Updates" missed paid/early-access models and downloads
failed with 401.
Parse and persist paidAccess from model-level, bulk, and by-hash
responses; treat timed paid gates as early access and permanent paid
versions as a distinct is_paid state; add a hide_paid_updates setting
with a "Paid" badge in the versions tab; warn before downloading gated
versions. Includes SQLite migration, i18n for all locales, and
backend/frontend tests.
When refreshing updates with a folder filter, versions already present in
other folders were excluded from the is_in_library check, making them
appear as available updates. When the user tried to download, the global
check found the file already exists and returned 'model already exists'.
Fix by also collecting the cross-folder version set when folder_path is
provided, and using the union (folder-filtered + cross-folder) for
is_in_library in both _build_record_from_remote and
_merge_with_local_versions.
Teach CivitaiClient.get_model_versions() to recognise Cloudflare 524, generic
5xx, and connection-level errors as transient failures and return None
instead of raising RuntimeError, so a single upstream glitch does not
block the entire batch update or produce a scary traceback.
Also downgrade the generic except Exception log level in
ModelUpdateService._refresh_single_model() from error (with exc_info)
to warning (message only), since the full traceback is already logged
upstream in CivitaiClient.

The model-level API (GET /api/v1/models/{id}) does not include usageControl
on version entries, causing generation-only models to show as downloadable.
Backend changes:
- Add get_model_versions_by_hashes() to CivitaiClient (POST by-hash batch)
- Propagate through all provider classes including RateLimitRetryingProvider
- Add _enrich_version_entries() pipeline: extract SHA256 from files[].hashes,
batch-call by-hash endpoint, inject usageControl+earlyAccessEndsAt in-place
- Wire enrichment into both bulk (_fetch_model_versions_bulk) and individual
(_refresh_single_model) refresh paths
- Fix _build_record_from_remote dropping usage_control field
- Fix POST by-hash request format (plain JSON array, not {hashes:[...]} object)
Frontend changes:
- Fix disabled download button tooltip: wrap in <span> since HTML title
attribute does not fire on disabled elements
Handle models that are only available for on-site generation (usageControl:
"Generation" or "InternalGeneration") rather than downloadable.
Backend changes:
- Add usage_control field to ModelVersionRecord dataclass
- Extract usageControl from Civitai API responses
- Filter non-downloadable versions from update availability checks
- Add database schema migration for usage_control column
- Include usageControl in version response JSON
Frontend changes:
- Add isDownloadAllowed() helper function
- Show disabled download button for non-downloadable versions
- Add "On-Site Only" badge for restricted versions
- Update resolveUpdateAvailability() to filter non-downloadable versions
- Add CSS styling for disabled action button
Internationalization:
- Add translations for onSiteOnly badge and downloadNotAllowedTooltip
- Complete translations for all 10 supported languages
_split _get_records_bulk into 500-id batches so the WHERE IN clause
never exceeds SQLite's 999-parameter ceiling.

Add new setting 'mature_blur_level' with options PG13/R/X/XXX to control
which NSFW rating level triggers blur filtering when NSFW blur is enabled.
- Backend: update preview selection logic to respect threshold
- Frontend: update UI components to use configurable threshold
- Settings: add validation and normalization for mature_blur_level
- Tests: add coverage for new threshold behavior
- Translations: add keys for all supported languages
Fixes#867
Add Early Access version support with filtering and improved UI:
Backend:
- Add is_early_access and early_access_ends_at fields to ModelVersionRecord
- Implement two-phase EA detection (bulk API + single API enrichment)
- Add hide_early_access_updates setting to filter EA updates
- Update has_update() and has_updates_bulk() to respect EA filter setting
- Add _enrich_early_access_details() for precise EA time fetching
- Fix setting propagation through base_model_service and model_update_service
Frontend:
- Add smart relative time display for EA (in Xh, in Xd, or date)
- Replace EA label with clock icon in metadata (fa-clock)
- Show Download button with bolt icon for EA versions (fa-bolt)
- Change EA badge color to #F59F00 (CivitAI Buzz theme)
- Fix toggle UI for hide_early_access_updates setting
- Add translation keys for EA time formatting
Tests:
- Update all tests to pass with new EA functionality
- Add test coverage for EA filtering logic
Closes#815
- Pass `version_info` parameter through download manager to model update service
- Enhance `_create_record` to use version info when creating records for missing versions
- Add `_extract_single_version` helper method for consistent version extraction
- Improve handling of version metadata during library synchronization
Add support for configurable update flag strategy with new "same_base" mode that considers base model versions when determining update availability. The strategy is controlled by the "update_flag_strategy" setting.
When strategy is set to "same_base":
- Uses get_records_bulk instead of has_updates_bulk
- Compares model versions against highest local versions per base model
- Provides more granular update detection based on base model relationships
Fallback to existing bulk or individual update checks when:
- Strategy is not "same_base"
- Bulk operations fail
- Records are unavailable
This enables more precise update flagging for models sharing common bases.
Refactor `_extract_size_bytes` method to prioritize primary model files when calculating size. The new implementation:
- Extracts size parsing into separate `parse_size` function
- Adds logic to prefer files marked as both "model" type and "primary"
- Falls back to first valid size if no primary model file found
- Adds comprehensive tests for primary preference and fallback behavior
This ensures more accurate size reporting for model files, particularly when multiple file types are present in the response.
Update ModelUpdateRecord.has_update() to only detect updates when a newer remote version exists than the latest local version. Previously, any missing remote version would trigger an update, which could include older versions that shouldn't be considered updates.
- Add logic to find the maximum version ID in library
- Only return True for remote versions newer than the latest local version
- Add comprehensive unit tests for the new update detection behavior
- Update docstring to reflect the new logic
Add migration support to handle schema changes without data loss. Instead of dropping and recreating tables, the system now:
- Uses CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS for initial table creation
- Adds _apply_migrations method to handle incremental schema updates
- Adds _get_table_columns helper to inspect existing table structure
- Adds new columns to model_update_versions table (sort_index, name, base_model, released_at, size_bytes, preview_url, is_in_library, should_ignore)
- Adds should_ignore_model column to model_update_status table
This ensures existing databases are upgraded gracefully while preserving user data.
- Refactor update filter logic to use bulk update checks when available
- Add annotation method to attach update flags to response items
- Improve performance by reducing API calls for update status checks
- Maintain backward compatibility with fallback to individual checks
- Handle edge cases and logging for failed update status resolutions
- Add set_version_update_ignore endpoint to toggle ignore status for specific versions
- Add get_model_versions endpoint to retrieve version details with optional refresh
- Update serialization to include version-specific data and preview overrides
- Modify database schema to support version-level ignore tracking
- Improve error handling for rate limiting and missing models
These changes enable granular control over version updates and provide better visibility into model version status.
