A backup now keeps each model's scan file (.info, small; on by default)
so names, trigger words and base models survive Civitai removing a
model, and on request Civitai's covers (stored once as the civitai_bak
copy; they can be hundreds of MB). Putting back writes a scan file only
where the model has none (replaced only with "replace") and Civitai's
cover only where it has no cover, with its civitai_bak copy so it stays
Civitai's and a later user cover still wins.

A backup also keeps a model list (each model's folder, path, size,
SHA-256 and link). Inspecting it names the models this computer lacks
(two copies of one file are one download); "Find downloads..." looks
them up like Model Check (Civitai by hash, the saved link, Hugging
Face), shows size, source and free space, and downloads the ticked ones
one after another into the path they had, each checked against its hash
and scanned after. A file found by name only starts unticked. Verified
on the isolated ComfyUI: an 18 MB Civitai LoRA came back to its folder.

Export packs the stores (recipes, combos, materials, parameters, and
optionally ComfyUI's saved workflows), the plugin settings without the
Civitai key, and each model's user layer and own cover into one .zip to
keep on a cloud drive. Import lists what is new, the same or different
and the models it finds again (by SHA-256, else folder, path and size),
adds only what is missing by default, replaces differing files only on
request with this computer's going to the Recycle Bin first, merges a
model's name and notes field by field and puts the user's cover in
place of a Civitai one. Unsafe or foreign zips are refused. Both are
activity entries. tests/test_backup.py covers the rules; testing.md
names a single test file the way unittest finds it.
