LIBRARY_STATS_QUERY_KEY was never invalidated by the bulk/single
mutation paths in RightSidebar and PhotoInfoPanel, so the All Photos
/ Rated / Discarded / Tags badges only updated on reload. Add it to
both shared invalidation helpers and the inline updateMutation, and
correct the stale docstring on useLibraryStatsQuery.

Compact the left/right sidebars and the photo info panel: shrink panel
widths, drop header height, switch top-level tree groups and metadata
sections to small uppercase eyebrow labels, and tighten row padding,
icon sizes, and count badges throughout.

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.

- backend/photos: whitelist sortable columns instead of getattr(Photo, sort).
Previously any client-supplied string was passed to SQLAlchemy, exposing
every Photo attribute (filepath, file_hash, etc.) as a sort target.
- App: move the auto-show-right-sidebar logic out of the render body and
into a useEffect. The previous version called setState during render,
causing extra re-render passes the audit caught.
- types/photo: add added_at and tighten folder_id from optional to nullable.
Drops a (photo as any).added_at cast in Timeline.
- constants/colorLabels: extract a single COLOR_LABEL_OPTIONS used by
FilterBar, RightSidebar, and PhotoInfoPanel. filterStore re-exports the
ColorLabel type so existing imports keep working.

Extract the single-photo body of RightSidebar into a reusable PhotoInfoPanel
(rating / color / flag / filename / title / notes / tags / EXIF) and mount
it inside PreviewView as a toggleable right-side overlay so the user can
rate, tag, and read EXIF without leaving the loupe.
- New PhotoInfoPanel: self-contained, owns its own queries and mutations,
takes a single photoId. darkTheme prop reserved for future use.
- RightSidebar: thinned down — delegates the single-select case to
PhotoInfoPanel, keeps its own slim bulk-action panel for multi-select.
- PreviewView: I toggles the panel; new top-right Info button mirrors it.
- useKeyboardShortcuts: gate the global I (right-sidebar toggle) to grid
mode so it doesn't double-fire alongside the preview-scoped handler.
