Enable matching files in the HuggingFace author index by SHA-256 in
addition to filename. Enrich the author index with hashes from repo
tree responses, store them in the index metadata, and use them as a
primary lookup path during search_huggingface_for_file before falling
back to filename-based search. Also update the author index cache
version to 2 and add tests for the new behavior.
- Skip name fallback in search provider runner when request already has sha256
- Add direct SQLite hash lookup in lora_manager_archive with result caching
- Add timing and logging for archive search
- Refresh HuggingFace author index metadata
- Add tests for hash search and provider fallback behavior
Support both Comfy-Org and Kijai author indexes as known HuggingFace fallbacks, aggregate their status in the backend, refresh the cached author index, and update the frontend UI and tests.
Backend:
- Keep CivArchive source page URL distinct from HuggingFace download mirrors in download metadata
- Handle CivitAI hash lookup HTTP errors and unexpected JSON shapes without caching failures
- Allow network JSON requests to return arrays as well as objects
Frontend:
- Escape each item individually when interpolating arrays into HTML templates
- Prefer the selected provider's page URL over cross-provider mirrors in context menus and download targets
- Reuse source link resolution for model info display
Tests:
- Add coverage for CivArchive metadata URL isolation, HTML array escaping, provider array responses, and CivitAI hash lookup caching behavior
Consolidate provider-specific category mapping into resolve_model_category(),
shared JSON request handling into execute_provider_json_request(), sidecar
path resolution into get_or_build_model_sidecar_info(), and progress
reporting into ProgressTracker. Update civitai/civarchive/common sources to
use the unified helpers. Add tests for the new utilities. Remove redundant
frontend wrapper methods from render_format_methods.js.
