Drops face recognition, OCR, object detection, and semantic embeddings.
The sole remaining vision task is a CLIP-based binary classifier
(photography vs other); photos in "other" get needs_review=true so
screenshots, documents, memes and scans can be triaged from a new
filter pill in the UI.

HEIC thumbnails:
- Switch fallback from ffmpeg to vips for HEIC files that pillow-heif
rejects. ffmpeg decoded gain map tiles instead of the primary image,
producing inverted/negative thumbnails. vips uses libheif's item
references correctly and extracts the full-resolution primary image.
Database pool exhaustion:
- Add idle_in_transaction_session_timeout=60s so Postgres auto-kills
leaked connections from disconnected thumbnail requests.
- Add pool_timeout=10 so new requests fail fast instead of hanging.
- Bump pool from 5+5 to 10+10 for thumbnail concurrency headroom.
- get_db rolls back on exception before closing.
Auth session persistence:
- Narrow 401 interceptor exclusion to only /auth/refresh and /auth/login
(was excluding all /auth/* including /auth/me, preventing token refresh
on boot).
- fetchMe only clears tokens on 401/403, not network errors.

Introduce username/password authentication with admin and user roles.
Each user gets their own media directory under /photos/{username}/ with
isolated photos, folders, heaps, and tags. Admins manage users and
observe the full library from a dedicated Settings page.
Backend:
- User model with bcrypt passwords and JWT access/refresh tokens
- Auth router (login, refresh, setup, change-password, status)
- Admin router (user CRUD with last-admin protection)
- user_id FK added to photos, folders, source_roots, heaps, tags
- All data routers scoped by authenticated user
- Scanner inherits user_id from source root owner
- Thumbnails stored under user-prefixed paths for isolation
- Library endpoints accept ?scope=global for admin cross-user view
- Alembic migration 0009 with data migration for existing installs
- Defensive bootstrap.py handles fresh vs existing DB startup
Frontend:
- AuthContext with token lifecycle, auto-refresh, login/logout
- Login page, first-run setup page, auth gate in App.tsx
- Bearer token interceptor on all API requests
- User identity + logout in left sidebar
- Admin-only Settings page with Library Management and Users tabs
- UserManagement panel (add, edit role, reset password, deactivate)
- Settings shows global stats across all users for admin
- Filter bar, right sidebar, keyboard hints hidden on settings page

Pool was 20+10 overflow per engine; uvicorn --reload leaked pools until
Postgres hit max_connections=100. Reduced to 5+5 with pool_pre_ping.
Grouped views (tags, people, colors, rated) now sort cards largest-first.

Three overlapping fixes so the ingestion pipeline actually runs and the
user can see what it's doing:
Pipeline recovery
- app/database.py: use NullPool when MULITA_CELERY_WORKER=1 so each
Celery task opens a fresh asyncpg connection on its own event loop.
Fixes "another operation in progress" and "Future attached to a
different loop" errors that were dropping ~every thumbnail +
extract_metadata task on the floor.
- app/tasks/thumbs.py: initialize photo=None before the try and rollback
on error so a transport failure in the initial SELECT doesn't raise
UnboundLocalError in the except block and leak rows stuck in 'pending'.
- app/services/vision/bootstrap_models.py: on missing model files,
invoke export_models automatically instead of just warning. First
boot of a fresh install now self-heals.
- app/services/vision/export_models.py: shutil.move instead of
Path.rename so the YOLO export survives the /app → /data/models
cross-volume hop.
- requirements.txt: add ultralytics so export works in a stock image.
Worker topology
- docker-compose.yml: replace the single worker with worker-light
(default/high/low queues, c=2, IO-bound) and worker-vision (vision
queue, c=5, OMP_NUM_THREADS=1 to avoid oversubscription on 6 cores).
Vision is pinned to ≤5 parallel inferences so ONNX doesn't each
spawn an all-cores intra-op pool.
- .env / .env.example: CELERYD_CONCURRENCY replaced with
CELERY_LIGHT_CONCURRENCY + CELERY_VISION_CONCURRENCY.
- Backfill queries in thumbs / scan / vision now ORDER BY taken_at
DESC NULLS LAST so newest photos finish first — the library fills
in top-down in the UI instead of arbitrary insertion order.
Settings visibility
- routers/library.py: new GET /maintenance/pipeline-stats returning
done/total per stage (thumbnails, exif, gps, phash, embeddings,
tags, ocr, faces, face clusters, duplicate groups). Worker-status
now also reports the `vision` queue depth, which was missing.
- services/api.ts: PipelineStats / PipelineStage / ScanStatus types
and the matching client call.
- components/dialogs/SettingsDialog.tsx:
- new Pipeline Progress card with one progress bar per stage
- inline scan banner (processed/total/current folder) inside the
Library section while a scan is running
- Tasks/min throughput computed by diffing worker processed counters
between polls
- Workers section calls out the vision queue and documents the
CELERY_LIGHT/VISION_CONCURRENCY + docker compose up -d scale path

Switch the default database from SQLite to Postgres + pgvector (via
pgvector/pgvector:pg16 Docker image) to support the upcoming vision
pipeline (embeddings, OCR, object detection, face clustering).
- Add `db` service to docker-compose.yml with healthcheck
- Wire `alembic upgrade head` into backend CMD before uvicorn
- Bootstrap empty 0001_baseline revision (schema still owned by create_all)
- Guard SQLite-only PRAGMAs and inline ALTERs behind _is_sqlite flag
- Run `CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS vector` on Postgres init
- Add asyncpg, psycopg2-binary, pgvector to requirements
- Provide docker-compose.sqlite.yml escape hatch for legacy SQLite mode
Fresh DB + rescan assumed — no SQLite→Postgres data migration.

Adds a new Map sidebar entry that plots photos by their EXIF GPS
coordinates on a clustered Leaflet map. While wiring this up, the
metadata extractor was reading unprefixed GPS keys that never exist
in `exiftool -G -j` output AND assumed coordinates were already
floats — every photo silently lost its GPS. The new extract_gps
helper handles Composite/EXIF group prefixes and parses DMS strings,
and lat/lon are stored as first-class indexed columns so the map
can query them without parsing exif_json on every request.

The Duplicates section was useless: SHA-256-only detection only caught
byte-identical files, not the actual duplicates a real library
accumulates (re-encoded JPEGs, screenshots, resized exports), and the
view was a flat date-sorted list with no grouping or actions. This
replaces the whole flow.
Detection
- New phash + duplicate_group_id columns on Photo, added via an
idempotent ALTER TABLE pass in init_db (the project has no Alembic).
- Thumbs worker computes a 64-bit pHash from the original-resolution
decoded frame just before the destructive thumbnail loop. Falls back
silently — phash is nice-to-have, not a blocker for thumbnails.
- backfill_phashes Celery task fills in phashes for photos that
predated the column, reading the existing thumb_large rather than
re-decoding the original.
- regroup_duplicates service runs union-find over Hamming distance
(threshold 6), persists duplicate_group_id, and maintains is_duplicate
as derived state so existing badges/counts keep working. Chained
after scan_all_source_roots with a 60s countdown.
API
- GET /library/duplicates/groups returns all groups with members,
bucketed in Python from one query. Each group has a reason ("exact"
iff every member shares a SHA-256, "similar" otherwise).
- POST /library/maintenance/{regroup-duplicates,backfill-phashes}.
Frontend
- New DuplicatesView (sectioned grid, one section per cluster) replaces
the timeline when the user is in the duplicates section. Each section
shows a "Keep best, discard N" button that picks the highest-pixel
copy and reuses the existing undoable bulk-discard so Cmd+Z works.
- Manual best override: hover any non-best thumbnail and click "Keep
this" (Crown icon, top-right) to override the auto-pick. The header
annotates "(manual)" so it's obvious which copy will be kept.
- Keyboard nav within the duplicates view walks the flat member list,
with ↑/↓ jumping by the measured column count and scrollIntoView on
every move. Timeline's keyboard handler now early-returns in the
duplicates section so the two don't fight.
- BEST pill / Keep-this button live at top-right with a ring outline so
they don't collide visually with the cyan selection ring around a
selected cell. Dimensions chip moved to bottom-left to free both
right corners for the keep affordances.
- New "Duplicates" section in SettingsDialog: shows group/member counts
and exposes both backfill + re-detect actions, sharing a query cache
with DuplicatesView via DUPLICATE_GROUPS_QUERY_KEY.
- PhotoInfoPanel "Basic Info" section now shows the photo's full file
path in monospace below the size/dimensions/date grid.
- New imagehash==4.3.1 dep in requirements.txt.
