Before an online scan (the scan page, a card's radar, after a download or
an import), scan_connection.js asks GET /anomalous/civitai_check, which
tries both of Civitai's addresses. When neither answers, a dialog says
why and offers Scan from the files (the offline scan, so nothing waits on
every model), Set a proxy (Settings → Models, Network) or Cancel. A check
that reached Civitai is trusted for five minutes. anomalousConfirm takes
okClass, so this choice is not drawn as a delete.
A model that is a link with no info beside it shows the info beside the
file it links to (metadata._info_base): A1111's Civitai Helper leaves
.civitai.info there. Only read there; covers, edits and scans stay beside
the link.
Checked on the isolated ComfyUI with the check and the scan request
stubbed in the page: the dialog's three choices (from files posts
offline_only, set a proxy opens the Models tab, cancel posts nothing),
an answering Civitai scans online without asking, and a second scan
skips the check.
