Two related fixes:
1. Prevention — scanner now normalizes paths before lookup/insert
in get_or_create_source_root and get_or_create_folder. Trailing
slashes, redundant separators, and `.` segments all collapse to
the same row. _normalize_path uses os.path.normpath; symlinks
are intentionally NOT resolved so mount paths stay intact for
cross-machine portability.
2. Cleanup — new app/services/cleanup.py runs on backend startup
(idempotent) and merges any pre-existing duplicates left over
from older scanner versions:
- Groups source_roots by normalized path. Picks the canonical
row (preferring one with a non-empty name and the earliest
added_at), re-points child Folder rows via UPDATE, and
deletes the duplicates.
- Same for folders, with photo_count as the tiebreaker. Photos
get re-pointed to the canonical folder via UPDATE.
- Recomputes folder.photo_count from the actual non-discarded
photo membership so the sidebar count matches reality.
Wired into main.py's lifespan handler. On the dev DB this merged
the empty-name "/host/Pictures/MulitaTest/" duplicate that was
showing up alongside the canonical MulitaTest source root.

User-facing labels and code now use "discard" (verb) and "Discarded"
(state/view label) instead of "trash" / "Trashed". The DB column names
stay (is_trashed / trashed_at) so no migration is required — only the
SQLAlchemy attribute names are renamed via Column('old_name', ...).
Backend
- Photo model: is_discarded / discarded_at attributes (DB columns
unchanged).
- PhotoBase / PhotoResponse / PhotoUpdate schemas use the new field
names.
- Photos list endpoint: is_discarded query param, filter logic.
- DELETE /photos/{id} now sets is_discarded; success message updated.
- Bulk action 'trash' renamed to 'discard'.
- backend/app/routers/trash.py renamed to discard.py with renamed
functions and route prefix /api/v1/discard.
- main.py imports and mounts the discard router.
- tasks/scan.py marks missing files as is_discarded.
Frontend
- Photo TS type: is_discarded.
- PhotoThumbnail: shows the trash-can icon when is_discarded.
- RightSidebar: button label "Discard"; mutation field name; local
variable rename.
- TopBar: discardPhotosMutation and "Discard" button; toast text
"Discarded".
- LeftSidebar: virtual node id 'discarded' / label "Discarded".
- FilterBar / filterStore / useFilterUrlSync: FlagFilter enum value
'trashed' → 'discarded'; backend param key is_discarded.
- KeyboardHints: X label "Discard".
- useKeyboardShortcuts: PhotoUpdate field rename, X handler.
- api.ts: /trash routes → /discard, trash export → discard,
bulkUpdate trash field → discard.
Out of scope (intentional): the docker-compose trash_data volume,
backend/Dockerfile mkdir /data/trash, config.py TrashSettings, and
the spec doc — all unused since soft-discard, and renaming them is
churn for no benefit.
