A user found model folders cluttered after scans: four files per model.
model_sidecars.py now says where the plugin's own side files are (.info,
.anomalous.json, .civitai_bak.*): beside the model, or in the folder's
hidden .amb (Settings -> Models -> Files that come with models). Every
reader and writer goes through it and reads both places; covers stay
beside the model for ComfyUI and other plugins.
Scans no longer keep a copy of Civitai's picture identical to the cover:
the cover is noted as Civitai's (SHA-256 in the .info) and a copy is kept
aside only while the user's own cover shows. api/sidecar_layout.py moves
existing files and drops the duplicates to the Recycle Bin. The folder
tree leaves .amb out; the duplicated tree builder and cover owner check
are shared now (model_catalog.py, backup.py back under 600 lines).

A Bilibili user's scan said Civitai could not be reached while their
browser reached it through a VPN app: the plugin's urllib requests only
use HTTPS_PROXY or the Windows proxy, not a PAC script or a browser-only
proxy.
net_proxy.py: the proxy address saved in api/config.json (NETWORK_PROXY)
that every request of the plugin goes through (Civitai, Hugging Face,
GitHub, translators), handed to the scan process as HTTP(S)_PROXY; empty
keeps the old behaviour. It also names why a request failed (timeout,
refused, dns, ssl, reset, proxy, http:<code>).
Settings -> Network has the address (SOCKS and malformed ones refused
with what to write) and Test connection, which calls 1.60's
/anomalous/civitai_check (brought here unchanged, now through the proxy
and with the failure's name). A scan that loses Civitai records why
(civitai_error) and the scan page and activity log say it with what to
try.

Settings -> Translation -> DeepL key saves the user's own DeepL API key;
translation then asks DeepL first, else Google's free endpoint, else
MyMemory. Saving a key translates one sentence and says whether it works or
why not (a refused key, a used-up month, busy). Only the key's tag changes,
so the page keeps its scroll place. The key stays on this computer: backups
leave it out like the Civitai key.
DeepL stopped taking the key as an auth_key parameter in 2025, so a key put
in config.json by hand no longer worked. It now goes in the Authorization
header with a JSON body; targets are ZH-HANS and EN-US. When DeepL fails,
the answer carries deepl_error beside the other provider's translation.
Checked live: a made-up key is refused by DeepL's server and the dialog
says so; removing it switches back to Google.
